Add the `-e` flag, which indicates whether to elide (that is, remove)
empty files that would have been created by the `-n` option.
The `-n` command-line argument gives a specific number of chunks into
which the input files will be split. If the number of chunks is
greater than the number of bytes, then empty files will be created for
the excess chunks. But if `-e` is given, then empty files will not be
created.
For example, contrast
$ printf 'a\n' > f && split -e -n 3 f && cat xaa xab xac
a
cat: xac: No such file or directory
with
$ printf 'a\n' > f && split -n 3 f && cat xaa xab xac
a
Clean up unit tests in the `dd` crate to make them easier to
manage. This commit does a few things.
* move test cases that test the complete functionality of the `dd`
program from the `dd_unit_tests` module up to the
`tests/by-util/test_dd.rs` module so that they can take advantage of
the testing framework and common testing tools provided by uutils,
* move test cases that test internal functions of the `dd`
implementation into the `tests` module within `dd.rs` so that they
live closer to the code they are testing,
* replace test cases defined by macros with test cases defined by
plain old functions to make the test cases easier to read at a
glance.
Add helper method `CmdResult::stdout_is_fixture_bytes()`, which is
like `stdout_is_fixture()` but compares stdout to the raw bytes of a
given file instead of decoding the contents of the file to a UTF-8
string.
* include io-blksize parameter
* format changes for including io-blksize

Add support for the `-x` command-line option to `split`. This option
causes `split` to produce filenames with hexadecimal suffixes instead
of the default alphabetic suffixes.
Correct the accounting for partial records written by `dd` to the
output file. After this commit, if fewer than `obs` bytes are written,
then that is counted as a partial record. For example,
$ printf 'abc' | dd bs=2 status=noxfer > /dev/null
1+1 records in
1+1 records out
That is, one complete record and one partial record are read from the
input, one complete record and one partial record are written to the
output. Previously, `dd` reported two complete records and zero
partial records written to the output in this case.
Change the `filter_mount_list()` function so that it always produces
the same order of `MountInfo` objects. This change ultimately results
in `df` printing its table of filesystems in the same order on each
execution. Previously, the table was in an arbitrary order because the
`MountInfo` objects were read from a `HashMap`.
Fixes#3086.
* ls: add new optional arguments to --classify flag
The --classify flag in ls now takes an option when argument
that may have the values always, auto and none.
Modified clap argument to allow an optional parameter and
changed the classify flag value parsing logic to account for
this change.
* ls: add test for indicator-style, ind and classify with value none
* ls: require option paramter to --classify to use a = to specify flag value
* ls: account for all the undocumented possible values for the --classify flag
Added the other values for the --classify flag along with modifications to tests.
Also documented the inconsistency between GNU coreutils because we accept the
flag value even for the short version of the flag.
Replace `ByteSplitter` and `LineSplitter` with `ByteChunkWriter` and
`LineChunkWriter` respectively. This results in a more maintainable
design and an increase in the speed of splitting by lines.
Correct the `test_split::test_suffixes_exhausted` test case so that it
actually exercises the intended behavior of `split`. Previously, the
test fixture contained 26 bytes. After this commit, the test fixture
contains 27 bytes. When using a suffix width of one, only 26 filenames
should be available when naming chunk files---one for each lowercase
ASCII letter. This commit ensures that the filenames will be exhausted
as intended by the test.
Show a warning if the `skip=N` command-line argument would cause `dd`
to skip past the end of the input. For example:
$ printf "abcd" | dd bs=1 skip=5 count=0 status=noxfer
'standard input': cannot skip to specified offset
0+0 records in
0+0 records out
Show a warning when a block size includes "0x" since this is
ambiguous: the user may have meant "multiply the next number by zero"
or they may have meant "the following characters should be interpreted
as a hexadecimal number".
When specifying `seek=N` and *not* specifying `conv=notrunc`, truncate
the output file to `N` blocks instead of truncating it to zero before
starting to write output. For example
$ printf "abc" > outfile
$ printf "123" | dd bs=1 skip=1 seek=1 count=1 status=noxfer of=outfile
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
$ cat outfile
a2
Fixes#3068.
When this option is present, the files argument is not processed. This option processes the file list from provided file, splitting them by the ascii NUL (\0) character. When files0-from is '-', the file list is processed from stdin.
