Bruno Haible 82781cc8 2012-04-14T22:27:12 stat: Bypass buggy override in mingw64. * m4/stat.m4 (gl_FUNC_STAT): Update comments. * lib/stat.c (stat) [mingw64]: Define to _stat. * doc/posix-functions/stat.texi: Mention mingw64 bug.
Paul Eggert 55c6e4b6 2011-12-31T13:38:25 doc: cover st_ino issues once; add OpenVMS etc. * doc/posix-functions/stat.texi (stat): * doc/posix-functions/lstat.texi (lstat): * doc/posix-functions/fstatat.texi (fstatat): * doc/posix-functions/fstat.texi (fstat): Move general 'struct stat' stuff to sys_stat.texi, leaving behind a pointer. * doc/posix-headers/sys_stat.texi (sys/stat.h): Merge duplicate info about 'struct stat' problems into here. Mention issues with OpenVMS, GNU/Linux NFS, NetApp, ClearCase, and suggest partial workarounds.
Bruno Haible 4e39aa42 2011-09-11T21:56:17 doc: Update regarding MSVC 9. * doc/gnulib-intro.texi (Target Platforms): Classify MSVC as "rarely tested". * doc/posix-functions/*.texi: Update with info about MSVC 9. * doc/posix-headers/*.texi: Likewise. * doc/pastposix-functions/*.texi: Likewise. * doc/glibc-functions/*.texi: Likewise. * doc/glibc-headers/*.texi: Likewise.
Paul Eggert 599a6645 2011-07-26T02:48:03 Add dependencies to the 'largefile' module. * modules/fopen (Depends-on): Add 'largefile'. * modules/freopen (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/fseeko (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/ftello (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/glob (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/lseek (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/lstat (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/mkostemp (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/mkostemps (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/mkstemp (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/mkstemps (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/open (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/openat (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/pread (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/pwrite (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/scandir (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/stat (Depends-on): Likewise. * modules/tmpfile (Depends-on): Likewise. * m4/mkstemp.m4 (gl_FUNC_MKSTEMP): Do not require AC_SYS_LARGEFILE, since the containing module now depends on the largefile module. * m4/tempname.m4 (gl_FUNC_GEN_TEMPNAME): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/fopen.texi: Mention that the problem of 32-bit off_t is fixed by gnulib. * doc/posix-functions/freopen.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/fseeko.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/fstatat.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/ftello.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/glob.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/lseek.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/lstat.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/mkstemp.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/open.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/openat.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/pread.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/pwrite.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/scandir.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/stat.texi: Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/tmpfile.texi: Likewise. * doc/glibc-functions/mkostemp.texi: Likewise. * doc/glibc-functions/mkostemps.texi: Likewise. * doc/glibc-functions/mkstemps.texi: Likewise.

Bruno Haible 518277d6 2010-07-30T21:24:54 stat: Update regarding AIX.
Eric Blake 349396eb 2009-11-07T16:59:11 stat: detect FreeBSD bug Like Solaris 9, FreeBSD 7.2 mistakenly allows stat("link-to-file/"). Unlike Solaris, it correctly forbids stat("file/"). A number of interfaces are affected (such as utimes), but replacing stat is enough to catch several by reusing the Solaris 9 fixes. * m4/stat.m4 (gl_FUNC_STAT): Also detect FreeBSD bug with slash on symlink. * doc/posix-functions/stat.texi (stat): Document the bug. * tests/test-stat.h (test_stat_func): Add argument. * tests/test-stat.c (main): Adjust caller. * tests/test-fstatat.c (main): Likewise. * modules/stat-tests (Depends-on): Add stdbool, symlink.

Eric Blake c9d72f69 2009-09-15T17:08:39 stat: fix Solaris 9 bug stat("file/",buf) mistakenly succeeded. * m4/stat.m4 (gl_FUNC_STAT): Detect Solaris 9 bug with trailing slash. * lib/stat.c (rpl_stat): Work around it. * doc/posix-functions/stat.texi (stat): Update documentation.
