Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2012 19:54:12 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] readlink: support multiple command line arguments This allows efficient processing of processing multiple files, while also increasing compatibility with BSD's readlink(1). We also add the -z, --zero option to delimit output items with the NUL character which disambiguates output in the presence of '\n' characters. * src/readlink.c (usage): Add the --zero description, and also adjust the description of --no-newline accordingly. (main): Handle the -z option and iterate over multiple arguments. Also as in commit v8.15-24-g9d46b25 we use fputs() and putchar() rather than printf() for performance reasons. * doc/coreutils.texi (readlink invocation): Document the new --zero option, adjust the --no-newline description, and tweak the general info to indicate multiple files are supported. * tests/readlink/multi.sh: A new test for the new functionality. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test. * NEWS: Mention the improvement. * THANKS.in: Suggested by Aaron Davies. --- NEWS | 2 + THANKS.in | 1 + doc/coreutils.texi | 14 ++++++++--- src/readlink.c | 59 +++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------ tests/local.mk | 1 + tests/readlink/multi.sh | 34 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 6 files changed, 77 insertions(+), 34 deletions(-) create mode 100755 tests/readlink/multi.sh diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index 1ee2c17..7843f3c 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -61,6 +61,8 @@ GNU coreutils NEWS -*- outline -*- ** Improvements + readlink now supports multiple arguments. + stat and tail now know about CEPH. stat -f --format=%T now reports the file system type, and tail -f uses polling for files on CEPH file systems. diff --git a/THANKS.in b/THANKS.in index 9009795..c2651e7 100644 --- a/THANKS.in +++ b/THANKS.in @@ -14,6 +14,7 @@ note to the bug-report mailing list (as seen at end of e.g., cp --help). ??? address@hidden A Costa address@hidden +Aaron Davies address@hidden Aaron Hawley address@hidden Achim Blumensath address@hidden Adam Jimerson address@hidden diff --git a/doc/coreutils.texi b/doc/coreutils.texi index 5f8fad7..d393063 100644 --- a/doc/coreutils.texi +++ b/doc/coreutils.texi @@ -9737,20 +9737,20 @@ Set the default SELinux security context to be used for created files. @item Readlink mode -@command{readlink} outputs the value of the given symbolic link. +@command{readlink} outputs the value of the given symbolic links.
