version 1.14
* NEWS: Record release date.
2025-04-06 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
build: avoid test failure on systems lacking "more"
On such systems, treat "more" as optional, just as we treat "less".
If the primary program is not available, do not install zmore.
Reported by Bruno Haible in http://debbugs.gnu.org/77563 and noticed
on a 2025 x86_64 GNU/Hurd system.
* configure.ac: Check for more/MORE just like we do for less/LESS.
* tests/Makefile.am: Use the new variables.
* NEWS: Mention it.

maint: fix typos spotted by codespell
Induced by running this:
printf '%s\n' Tye tye Ned bu nd > w
codespell -w --summary --count -Iw $(git ls-files|grep -v gnulib)
Summary:
cvignore 1
declration 1

repoducible 1
uncompressible1
* ChangeLog-2007: Fix typos.
* NEWS: Likewise.
* inflate.c: Likewise.
* sample/sub.c: Likewise.
* tests/reproducible: Likewise.
Since the above changed NEWS, I must also do this:
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Update, to reflect recent NEWS correction.
(exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_codespell): Ignore THANKS.
(codespell_ignore_words_list): Exempt two false-positives.
2025-02-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
Ignore GZIP envvar except for innocuous flags
This is slimmed down from the originally proposed patch, which
ignored GZIP entirely. Thanks to Lasse Collin for thoughtful comments.
* gzip.c (ENV_OPTION): Remove. All uses removed.
(main): Parse GZIP contents with error diagnostics disabled,
and simply ignore invalid contents. Ignore all options
except -1 thru -9, --rsyncable, --synchronous. Remove
unnecessary longind local; all uses removed.
* tests/gzip-env (GZIP): Adjust to match current behavior.
Also test --rsyncable, --synchronous.
2025-02-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
Fix THANKS typo
gzip: use pclmul if available
Suggested by Sam Russell (Bug#74192).
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Depend on crc-x86_64, not just crc.
* NEWS, THANKS, lib/.gitignore, m4/.gitignore:
Update accordingly.
maint: update .gitignore
* m4/.gitignore: Add init-package-version.m4.
2025-02-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
maint: continue writing base64-encoded checksums to announcement
* cfg.mk (announce_gen_args): Set to --cksum-checksums.
2025-02-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzip: prefer static_assert to verify
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Replace verify with assert-h.
* deflate.c: Do not include verify.h.
Use C23-style static_assert rather than verify.
gzip: better fix for s390 buffer flushes
* dfltcc.c (dfltcc_inflate): The previous patch was incorrect, as
fill_inbuf (0) will not call flush_outbuf which is needed here.
Problem and fix reported by Eduard Stefes in
<https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=75924#13>.
Although this patch causes the hufts test to fail, that might be
due to a different bug in the s390 code, so let’s leave that test
alone for now.
2025-02-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
maint: fix mistake in preceding change
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): The deprecated realloc-gnu module
cannot be renamed to realloc-gnu-h (which doesn't exist), but rather
to realloc-posix. Spotted by Collin Funk.
2025-02-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
build: update gnulib to latest; and update bootstrap
maint: reflect gnulib module renamings
* bootstrap.conf: Some gnulib modules are now deprecated in favor of
new names with a "-h" suffix. Induce this change with the following:
re='inttypes|realloc-gnu|sys_stat'
perl -pi -e 's{^('"$re"')$}{$1-h}' bootstrap.conf
2025-01-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzip: fix problem with s390 buffer flushes
Problem reported by Eduard Stefes <https://bugs.gnu.org/74651>.
* dfltcc.c (dfltcc_deflate): Flush output buffer if premature EOF.
2025-01-10 Lasse Collin <lasse.collin@tukaani.org>
tests: synchronous: new test
* tests/synchronous: Test that --synchronous works. This
failed with musl 1.2.5 before the Gnulib commit 0fb185b7cd5e
("fcntl-h: port better to musl on GNU/Linux").
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2025-01-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: update .gitignore
* lib/.gitignore, m4/.gitignore: Update to match current Gnulib.
build: update gnulib submodule to latest
2025-01-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
build: update gnulib to latest
2025-01-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
maint: update --version copyright dates
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, gzip.c, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in,
zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in: Also update the --version copyright
dates (while updated by update-copyright, those didn't satisfy syntax-check)
by running this:
grep -l 2024-2025 *.in gzip.c|xargs perl -pi -e 's/2024-2025/2025/'
2025-01-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
maint: update all copyright dates via "make update-copyright"
2024-12-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
gnulib: avoid the new gnulib-i18n module
* bootstrap.conf (avoided_gnulib_modules): New variable.
Use it to omit the gnulib-i18n module, since this package
is not internationalized.
build: update gnulib to latest; also update bootstrap
2024-11-02 Sam Russell <sam.h.russell@gmail.com>
maint: initialize MAINTAINERCLEANFILES
* lib/Makefile.am (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Initialize to empty.
Gnulib expects it to be set as it appends values to it, the recent
upgrade to lib/crc.c modifies this and building fails if it isn't
already set before gnulib.mk is included.
2024-10-17 Simon Josefsson <simon@josefsson.org>
maint: Drop unused sample/makecrc.c.
2024-09-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: ‘type’ → ‘command -v’
POSIX says ‘type’ is an XSI extension, whereas ‘command -v’ is
part of the base. Problem reported by Clarence “Sparr” Risher in
<https://bugs.gnu.org/73402>.
* gzexe.in, tests/help-version, zdiff.in, zgrep.in:
Use ‘command -v’, not ‘type’.
2024-09-11 Collin Funk <collin.funk1@gmail.com>
maint: update library names used by gnulib
* Makefile.am (gzip_LDADD): Update library names according to Gnulib
NEWS 2023-01-07.
2024-09-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
tests: reference: don't rely on od's -w option
* tests/reference: Don't rely on od's -w option.
Instead, use tr -d '\n' to join the output lines.
Reported by Bruno Haible in https://bugs.gnu.org/73140
maint: use gnulib's crc module in place of our own code
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add crc.
* util.c: Include "crc.h".
(crc_32_tab): Delete. No longer used.
(updcrc): Use gnulib's crc32_update.
(crc): Initialize the global to 0, not 0xffffffffL.
(setcrc, getcrc): Stop flipping bits. No longer needed.
* lib/.gitignore: Add crc.c and crc.h, and sort.
build: update gnulib to latest, for crc tweak
2024-09-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
build: update gnulib to latest
* lib/.gitignore: add error.h
2024-09-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
maint: modernize see...licenses comments
To accommodate a new syntax-check rule, ...
Adjust copyright notices that suggested to write to an old
Franklin Street address to reference the URL instead:
git grep -l 'if not, write' |xargs \
perl -0777 -pi -e 's{program; if not, write .*? USA\.}{program. If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.}ms'
Also, run this:
git grep -l 'License along$' | xargs \
perl -0777 -pi -e 's{License along\n# with}{License\n# along with}ms'
to normalize a little more, changing comments like this:
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along
with this program. If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.

2024-09-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
tests: reference: new test
* tests/reference: New test. Without this test, there
was nothing to alert me to an error in the crc computation:
each new CRC was different, but all newly-compressed files
decompressed fine and had a valid (by the new check) CRC.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
Also move the "list-big" test to the front of the list, since
it is the most costly: start it first. Useful in a parallel test.
maint: remove duplicate <errno.h> include
* util.c: Remove duplication inclusion of <errno.h>.
maint: rename deflate and inflate to gzip_deflate and gzip_inflate
In experimenting with zlib's CRC code, names like inflate
and deflate would otherwise conflict.
* gzip.h (gzip_deflate, deflate): Rename declarations.
* deflate.c (gzip_deflate): Rename from deflate.
* inflate.c (gzip_inflate): Rename from inflate. Update comment uses.
* dfltcc.c (dfltcc_deflate, dfltcc_inflate): Update uses.
* unzip.c (unzip): Update use.
* zip.c (zip): Likewise.
2024-08-09 Collin Funk <collin.funk1@gmail.com>
maint: depend on Gnulib's limits-h
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add limits-h.
* gzip.c (CHAR_BIT): Remove definition.
* unlzh.c: Include limits.h.
(CHAR_BIT, UCHAR_MAX): Remove definitions.
* util.c (CHAR_BIT): Remove definition.
gzip: simplify printing of offsets using -l and -v
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add inttypes.
* gzip.c: Include inttypes.h.
(do_list): Use printf instead of fprint_off.
* gzip.h (fprint_off): Remove deceleration.
* util.c (fprint_off): Remove function.
2024-07-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzip: reject suffixes containing '/'
Problem reported by Alex Stumpf <https://bugs.gnu.org/72283>.
* gzip.c (main): Diagnose suffixes containing '/', and exit.
2024-07-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
build: avoid GCC warnings from -Wmissing-variable-declarations
* deflate.h: New file with extern declarations for deflate.c.
* Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Add it here.
* deflate.c: Include deflate.h.
build: avoid GCC warning from -Wmissing-variable-declarations
* Makefile.am (version.c): Emit the directive to include version.h
into this file.
build: update gnulib to latest, and update bootstrap and .gitignore files
2024-07-04 Collin Funk <collin.funk1@gmail.com>
maint: import tests/init.sh from Gnulib during bootstrap
* bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_post_import_hook): Use gnulib-tool
--copy-file to import tests/init.sh.
* tests/init.sh: Remove file.
* .gitignore (/testsuite/init.sh): Add entry.
2024-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: update bootstrap and m4/.gitignore to latest Gnulib
build: update gnulib to latest
2024-05-11 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org> (tiny change)
tests: Fix test failure on NetBSD when run as root.
* tests/write-error: Also test whether the process is running under uid 0.
2024-02-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
maint: avoid syntax-check failure: use <>, not "" for system headers
* gzip.c: Spell as <getopt.h> and hoist it to be with other system
header includes. Also remove duplicate inclusion of <errno.h>.
2024-01-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
build: update gnulib to latest
2024-01-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzip: fix -l bug with multimember files
Problem reported by Antonio Diaz Diaz in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-gzip/2024-01/msg00000.html
* NEWS: Mention this.
* gzip.c (treat_stdin, treat_file): Do not clear bytes_out.
* tests/list: Test for the bug.
* unpack.c (unpack):
* unzip.c (unzip):
Do not assume bytes_out is initially zero.
maint: update .gitignore files
maint: update bootstrap from Gnulib
build: update gnulib submodule to latest
2024-01-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: update --version copyright dates
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, gzip.c, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in,
zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in: Also update the --version copyright
dates (those are not updated by update-copyright) by running this:
git grep -l ' 2023 Free' | xargs perl -pi -e 's/ 2023 Free/ 2024 Free/'
2024-01-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: fix doc/fdl.texi copyright
This file's copyright date was munged incorrectly a year ago.
make update-copyright
maint: add .x-update-copyright
This should prevent unwanted copyright-year updating.
2023-10-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
build: update gnulib submodule to latest
maint: update .gitignore files
maint: fix port to s390x
Problem reported by Sarah-Julia Kriesch <https://bugs.gnu.org/66709>.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add alignasof.
2023-08-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
maint: post-release administrivia
* NEWS: Add header line for next release.
* .prev-version: Record previous version.
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Auto-update.
version 1.13
* NEWS: Record release date.
maint: remove use gnulib's deprecated stdalign module
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove deprecated stdalign.
It was not directly used.
build: update gnulib to latest; also update bootstrap and tests/init.sh
2023-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
build: update gnulib to latest
2023-06-24 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
build: Ensure that makeinfo ≥ 6.8 checks the @menu structure.
See <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2023-06/msg00015.html>.
* doc/Makefile.am (MAKEINFO): New variable.
* cfg.mk (_makefile_at_at_check_exceptions): New variable.
2023-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
build: modernize bootstrap prerequsite tools
Following Pádraig Brady's example from coreutils, ...
* bootstrap.conf: Add an explicit requirement on m4.
Add an explicit requirement on texi2pdf -- often packaged separately
rather than with makeinfo -- its absence would otherwise induce a
failure late in the build process.
Also, add an xz requirement and a version for autopoint.
2023-06-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
doc: minor tuneup of man page
From suggestions by Bjarni Ingli Gislason (bug#64118).
2023-04-11 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
tests: Fix a test failure.
* tests/write-error: Make executable. Skip the test if we're running as root.
2023-04-07 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
gzip: improve a write-failure diagnostic
* gzip.c (create_outfile): Call write_error, not progerror,
so failure to open for writing gives a better diagnostic:
gzip: failed to write d/f.gz: Permission denied
rather than this:
gzip: d/f.gz: Permission denied
* tests/write-error: New file, to test for this.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add the file name.
Reported in https://bugs.gnu.org/16876.
2023-04-07 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
build: update gnulib to latest
2023-02-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@meta.com>
maint: prefer https: to git:
The idea is to defend against some adversary-in-the-middle attacks.
Also prefer git.savannah.gnu.org over its shorter alias, git.sv.gnu.org
to avoid a warning e.g., from git clone.
Also, drop any final ".git" suffix on the resulting URIs.
Inspired by Paul Eggert's nearly identical changes to coreutils.
2023-02-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
zless: improve gzip failure checking
* zless.in: Use --show-preproc-error if available.
gzip: fix exit status on broken pipe
Fix gzip to behave like cat etc. when outputting to a broken pipe:
i.e., exit with nonzero status if SIGPIPE is ignored, and be
terminated by SIGPIPE otherwise.
* NEWS: Mention this.
* gzip.c: Do not install signal handlers unless creating an output
file, for which signal handlers are needed. This avoids gzip
having to deal with signal handlers when outputting to stdout.
(exiting_signal): Remove. All uses removed.
(main): Do not install signal handlers at first.
(create_outfile): Instead, install them only when needed.
(finish_up_gzip): New function, which generalizes abort_gzip.
(abort_gzip): Use it.
* tests/pipe-output: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* util.c (EPIPE): Default to 0.
(write_error): Just warn if it is a pipe error, and suppress that
warning if quiet. In any event exit with status 2 (warning),
not status 1 (error).
* zgrep.in: Treat gzip status 141 like status 2;
it is a broken pipe either way.
doc: document exit status
* doc/gzip.texi: Document exit status.
2023-01-30 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
Don't require 'rsync' as a prerequisite. It is no longer needed since 2018.
* bootstrap.conf (buildreq): Remove rsync.
Fix "make check" in a subdirectory (VPATH build).
* Makefile.am (gzip.doc): Generate gzip.doc in the source directory, not in the
build directory.
2023-01-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
maint: update --version copyright dates
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, gzip.c, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in,
zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in: Also update the --version copyright
dates (those are not updated by update-copyright) by running this:
grep -l ' 2022 Free'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/ 2022 Free/ 2023 Free/'
2023-01-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
build: update gnulib to latest
maint: update copyright dates
2022-12-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
maint: avoid new sc_tight_scope syntax-check failure
* cfg.mk (_gl_TS_extern): Allow a leading '_Noreturn ' on
declarations like that of abort_gzip.
maint: SPC-indent inflate.c
* inflate.c: Indent with spaces, not TABs.
2022-12-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: update THANKS
Add lines for each bug reporter and fix contributor for
which there is a Bug# in the commit messages.
Fix some accents and email addresses and sorting issues
while we’re in the neighborhood.
2022-12-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
gzip: use strerror, not perror
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Use strerror, not perror.
This removes dependencies on Gnulib’s ‘threadlib’ and ‘lock’ modules,
and simplifies the mainline code. Apparently the old code was written
before strerror was universally supported; nowadays we can use Gnulib
strerror instead. All uses of perror changed to use strerror+fprintf.
* gzip.h (WARN): Since this expands to a statement, wrap within
‘do ... while (false)’ for the usual reasons. Helpful now that
calls to WARN are now simplified.
2022-12-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: link with $(LIB_FDATASYNC)
* Makefile.am (gzip_LDADD): Add LIB_FDATASYNC as gnulib-tool suggests.
It’s not likely to make much difference nowadays (does anybody still
run Solaris 10 x86?) but it shouldn’t hurt to add it.
maint: go back to single-file bootstrap
I recently added this option to Gnulib, and it seems a better
match for gzip as it means just one bootstrap-related file.
* README-hacking: Document this.
* bootstrap: Sync from gnulib/build-aux/bootstrap, not
from gnulib/top/bootstrap.
* autogen.sh, autopull.sh, bootstrap-funclib.sh: Remove.
build: update gnulib submodule to latest
2022-12-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: more fallout from Gnulib sync
* README-hacking: Improve wording.
* autogen.sh, autopull.sh, bootstrap-funclib.sh: New files.
maint: do not include stdbool.h, stdalign.h
They are not needed in C23, which Gnulib now emulates.
(We no longer worry about C89, since Gnulib doesn’t.)
2022-12-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: fix typo in previous patch
maint: expand tabs in previous patch
maint: sync to Gnulib bootstrap
Suggested by Bruno Haible (Bug#56749).
* README-hacking: Document this.
* bootstrap: Sync from Gnulib by running
'./bootstrap ./bootstrap --bootstrap-sync’.
* bootstrap.conf: Do not mkdir build-aux, since bootstrap
does that for us.
(bootstrap_post_import_hook): Create the empty ChangeLog
in this new function.
maint: prefer https: to http:
This also syncs COPYING from Gnulib and README-hacking from Coreutils.
maint: port to gcc -std=c99 -Wstrict-prototypes
This doesn’t fix any bugs, since the code is correct as-is on all
C versions. However, it pacifies gcc -std=c99 -Wstrict-prototypes,
which complains about a function definition without arguments
unless there’s a previous prototype with ‘(void)’.
Most (but not all) of this patch merely reverts some recent
changes to be more consistent when porting to C23.
* dfltcc.c (is_dfltcc_enabled):
* gzip.c (get_input_size_and_time):
* inflate.c (inflate_stored, inflate_fixed, inflate_dynamic):
* unpack.c (read_byte):
gzip: port alignas usage to C23
* gzip.c (BUFFER_ALIGNED): Do not depend on __alignas_is_defined
as that has been removed from C23.
gzip: local → static
* gzip.h (local): Remove. All uses replaced by ‘static’.
Previously, the source code was inconsistent about using ‘local’
vs ‘static’ even before the recent changes, and ‘local’ was
more trouble than it was worth.
maint: port function definitions to C23
C23 does not allow K&R style function definitions.
Use protyped definitions. However, don't bother with (void) in
function definitions since C23 prefers (); so prefer () to (void) as
this will work with older compilers anyway.
maint: stop using obsolete dosname module
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Replace dosname with filename.
* gzip.c: Include filename.h, not dosname.h.
* lib/.gitignore: Remove name of dosname.h.
maint: stop using obsolete stdnoreturn module
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove stdnoreturn.
* gzip.h: Do not include stdnoreturn.h.
All uses of noreturn replaced by _Noreturn,
at start of declaration for benefit of C23.
* lib/.gitignore, m4/.gitignore: Remove names of
stdnoreturn-related files.
maint: stop using obsolete fdl module
maint: update .gitignore to match Gnulib changes
build: update gnulib submodule to latest
2022-07-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
zgrep: tweak for sed failure
* zgrep.in (icolon): Defend better against sed failure.
Suggested by Lasse Collin.
2022-06-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
build: update gnulib submodule to latest
maint: update from Gnulib
* bootstrap: Copy from Gnulib.
2022-06-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@trombone>
gzip: test invalid-input bug
* NEWS: Mention the bug.
* tests/unpack-invalid: Test for the bug.
gzip: detect invalid input
Problem reported by Young Mo Kang and fix from Mark Adler (Bug#56247).
* inflate.c: Include stdbool.h.
(fresh): New static var.
* inflate.c (flush_output): Clear it.
(inflate): Set it.
(inflate_codes): Fail if the offset is outside a fresh input window.
gzip: match printf format to arg type
This pacifies gcc -Wformat -DDEBUG.
* bits.c (send_bits):
* deflate.c (check_match):
* inflate.c (huft_build, inflate_codes):
* trees.c (send_code, gen_codes, flush_block):
Use correct printf formats for signed vs unsigned integers.
2022-04-07 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
maint: reference CVE-2022-1271 in 1.12's NEWS
* NEWS: Reference newly-assigned CVE number.
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash)
2022-04-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: update --version copyright dates
* cfg.mk (srcdirslash): New macro.
(in_vc_files): Use it to avoid problems when srcdir is '.'.
Also look for copyright dates in shell script *.in files,
so that ‘zgrep --version’ etc. outputs current dates.
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, gzip.c, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in:
* zforce.in, zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:

zgrep: fix "binary file matches" mislabeling
Problem reported by Jim Avera (Bug#31280).
This became more of an issue when GNU grep 3.5 (2020) started sending
"binary file matches" diagnostics to stderr instead of to stdout.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add zgrep-binary.
* tests/zgrep-binary: New test.
* zgrep.in (args): New var, to accumulate args separately
from grep command, so we can prepend args if need be.
Most uses of 'grep' changed to use 'args' instead, or also.
(with_filename): Set to 1 if more than one file and -h not given;
this simplifies later code.
(gnuish_grep): New var; evaluates to true if grep supports
-H and --label options, as is true for GNU and FreeBSD grep.
Append -H to 'grep' if outputting file names with GNUish grep,
and use --label with GNUish grep unless reading from stdin,
as that’s safer and more efficient than relabeling with 'sed'.
maint: use C locale more often
* gzexe.in, zdiff.in, zgrep.in:
Run expr and sed in the C locale when it might help to avoid
undefined behavior on non-GNU platforms.
* sample/zfile, znew.in: Run in the C locale, for simplicity and
to avoid undefined behavior on non-GNU platforms.
gzexe: optimize out a grep
* gzexe.in: Avoid an unnecessary invocation of ‘grep’,
by using sed instead. Also, look only for at-most-3-digit numbers,
for consistency with the rest of the script.
gzip: mention when fixed bugs were introduced
zgrep: port to POSIX sed
* zgrep.in (res): When escaping the file name do not rely on GNU
sed’s extension to POSIX with respect to s/.../\n/. Instead, use
features that should also work with AIX and/or Solaris sed. This is
simpler anyway, and would have prevented the recently-fixed bug.

2022-04-06 Lasse Collin <lasse.collin@tukaani.org>
zgrep: avoid exploit via multi-newline file names
* zgrep.in: The issue with the old code is that with multiple
newlines, the N-command will read the second line of input,
then the s-commands will be skipped because it's not the end
of the file yet, then a new sed cycle starts and the pattern
space is printed and emptied. So only the last line or two get
escaped. This patch makes sed read all lines into the pattern
space and then do the escaping.
This vulnerability was discovered by:

2019-04-02 Ilya Leoshkevich <iii@linux.ibm.com>
bug#34918: [PATCH] Add support for IBM Z hardware-accelerated deflate
Future versions of IBM Z mainframes will provide DFLTCC instruction,
which implements deflate algorithm in hardware with estimated
compression and decompression performance orders of magnitude faster
than the current gzip and ratio comparable with that of level 1.
This patch adds DFLTCC support to gzip. In order to enable it, the
following build commands should be used:
$ ./configure --enable-dfltcc
$ make
When built like this, gzip would compress in hardware on level 1, and in
software on all other levels. Decompression will always happen in
hardware. In order to enable DFLTCC compression for levels 1-6 (i.e. to
make it used by default) one could either add -DDFLTCC_LEVEL_MASK=0x7e
at compile time, or set the environment variable DFLTCC_LEVEL_MASK to
0x7e at run time.
Two DFLTCC compression calls produce the same results only when they
both are made on machines of the same generation, and when the
respective buffers have the same offset relative to the start of the
page. Therefore care should be taken when using hardware compression
when reproducible results are desired. One such use case - reproducible
software builds - is handled explicitly: when SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
environment variable is set, the hardware compression is disabled.
This patch tries to add DFLTCC support in a least intrusive way.
All SystemZ-specific code was placed into a separate file, but
unfortunately there is still a noticeable amount of changes in the
main gzip code. Below is the summary of those changes.
DFLTCC will refuse to write an End-of-block Symbol if there is no input
data, thus in some cases it is necessary to do this manually. In order
to achieve this, bi_buf and bi_valid were promoted to extern variables.
lm_init() function moves the input buffer into the window, which is not
desirable for DFLTCC. Therefore, its invocation was moved to
software-only deflate(). In addition to initializing the window, this
function also used to convert compression level to flags, which is still
needed for DFLTCC. This responsibility was handed off to zip() function.
To achieve maximum performance with DFLTCC, inbuf and outbuf must be
256k big and page-aligned. Additionally, for DFLTCC to work at all, the
window must be page-aligned.
In addition to compression, DFLTCC computes CRC-32 checksum, therefore,
whenever it's used, software checksumming needs to be suppressed and its
results replaced by those of dfltcc. This is achieved by introducing the
new getcrc() and setcrc() functions.
Unlike the current software implementation, DFLTCC decompresses data
into the output buffer, and not the window. Therefore, just like
flushing the window, flushing the output buffer must honor the test
flag.
Finally, znew-k test assumes that "znew -K" would not convert the test
.Z file to .gz, which is not the case with DFLTCC. Since this is not the
main point of the test, this assumption was relaxed.

gzexe: port to macOS mktemp
Problem reported by Jeffrey Walton (Bug#30000).
* gzexe.in, zdiff.in, zgrep.in:
Don’t assume that mktemp works when given no arguments,
as this is not true for macOS. Instead, use a syntax
that should work with coreutils, NetBSD, and macOS.
While we’re in the neighborhood, be more consistent about how program
names are used in temporary file names. Also, watch out for TMPDIR
values that are not absolute file names, since they can cause problems
(e.g., leading "-").

gzip: simplify by closing ourselves
This simplifies the previous fix, by avoiding the use of the
closein module. That module was problematic, as gzip normally
does not use stdio for output and never uses it for input.
Also, it is a heavyweight module, as it drags many files into lib
(c-ctype.c, c-ctype.h, closein.c, closein.h, closeout.c, closeout.h,
close-stream.c, close-stream.h, config.charset, c-strcasecmp.c,
c-strcaseeq.h, c-strcase.h, c-strncasecmp.c, fpending.c, fpending.h,
freadahead.c, freadahead.h, localcharset.c, localcharset.h, mbrtowc.c,
mbsinit.c, quotearg.c, quotearg.h, quote.h, ref-add.sin, ref-del.sin,
streq.h, wctype-h.c, wctype.in.h) and into m4 (closein.m4, closeout.m4,
close-stream.m4, codeset.m4, configmake.m4, fpending.m4, freadahead.m4,
glibc21.m4, localcharset.m4, locale-fr.m4, locale-ja.m4, locale-zh.m4,
mbrtowc.m4, mbsinit.m4, mbstate_t.m4, quotearg.m4, wctype_h.m4),
and these files are thus no longer needed.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove closein.
* gzip.c: Don't include closein.h.
(stdin_was_read): New static var.
(main): Don't use close_stdin.
Invoke finish_out to exit after outputting via stdio's stdout.
Close stdin after reading it.
Restore previous way of closing stdout.

* gzip.c (main): Also accept --rsyncable when it is specified

I noticed this when gzip's "make dist" failed because maint.mk
detected that gzip now honors --rsyncable, yet when it set GZIP_ENV
to include that, and that propagated via automake-generated code
to the GZIP setting used in the "make dist" rule, there, it was not
honored, and caused "make dist" to fail.

where $? is 256+SIG when a process was killed with signal SIG, and
where 'exit 257' is equivalent to 'exit 1'. Apparently some other
sh implementations use 256+128+SIG. So, instead of using plain
'exit $?', use the equivalent of 'exit ((128 * (128 <= $?)) + $? %
128)' within the script, and use the equivalent of 'kill -$($? %

default off. See: http://bugs.gnu.org/22768
* NEWS, doc/gzip.texi (Sample, Invoking gzip), gunzip.in (usage):
* gzip.1, zcat.in (usage):
Document this.
* gzip.c (synchronous): New static var.
(SYNCHRONOUS_OPTION): New constant.
(longopts, help, main, treat_file): Add support for --synchronous.
gzip: use constants, not fileno
* gzip.c (main, treat_stdin, treat_file, get_method)
(check_ofname): Prefer STDIN_FILENO to fileno (stdin),
and similarly for STDOUT_FILENO.
gzip: fdatasync output dir before unlinking
This follows up on the earlier patch to avoid data loss near
the system crashes. See: http://bugs.gnu.org/22768
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add dirname-lgpl, fdatasync,
openat-safer, unistd-safer, unlinkat.

Include fcntl--.h instead of fcntl-safer.h.
(RW_USER): Remove; no longer needed.
(dfname, dfd): New static vars.
(dot): New static const.
(atdir_eq, atdir_set): New functions.
(treat_file): Also fdatasync the output directory, if !keep.
(treat_file, create_outfile, open_and_stat):
Use dir fd for unlinkat and openat, if possible.
(open_and_stat): Omit mode argument, since it was always the
same. All callers changed.
* lib/.gitignore, m4/.gitignore: Add new gnulib files.
* tailor.h (PROTO, NO_STDIN_FSTAT, OPEN): Remove. Remove MACOS
section, as this stuff would not work anyway now, and circa 2001
Apple stopped supporting Mac OS 9 and earlier.
* zip.c: Do not include unistd.h and fcntl.h, as this file does
not directly use any symbols defined by those headers.

Problem reported by Jaroslaw Weglinski, and LESSOPEN change
suggested by Mark Nudelman, in: http://bugs.gnu.org/16951
This doesn't fix bug 16951 entirely, as 'less' needs to be changed

zmore: rewrite to fix bugs and assume POSIX
Problem reported for Solaris 9 by Daniel in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2012-06/msg00007.html>.
Rather than figure out what exactly went wrong in Solaris 9
it was easier to rip out all the buggy compatibility and stty cruft.
* zmore.in: Don't use stty or trap; simply pipe the output to 'more'
and let it deal with signals and terminal control.
Use printf, not 'echo', to avoid problems with backslashes.
Don't assume ANS is not 's' in the environment.
Use a 'more'-style header instead of rolling our own style.
Paginate the header, too; the old behavior lost the header.

tests: use "compare exp out", not "compare out exp"
Likewise, when an empty file is expected, use "compare /dev/null out",
not "compare out /dev/null". I.e., specify the expected/desired contents
via the first file name. Prompted by a suggestion from Bruno Haible
in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.grep.bugs/4020/focus=29154
Run these commands:
git grep -l -E 'compare [^ ]+ exp' \
|xargs perl -pi -e 's/\b(compare) (\S+) (exp\S*)/$1 $3 $2/'
git grep -l -E 'compare [^ ]+ /dev/null' \

2010-11-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
zgrep: don't assume traditional behavior with signal numbers
* zgrep.in: Don't assume the exit status is the signal number plus
128, as POSIX doesn't require this. No need to kill self; exiting
with large status is enough. Propagate all exit statuses greater
than 1, not merely those in the range 129..143, as there's no need
to treat that range specially (and it's not portable anyway).
2010-11-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
zgrep: fix shell portability bug with -f; fix mishandling of "-e -"
* tests/zgrep-f: Check for "zgrep -e -" bug, too.
* zgrep.in: Don't assume that if the shell redirects fd 6, then
this redirection is visible to the subsidiary grep. POSIX doesn't
guarantee this visibility except for file descriptors 0, 1, and 2,
and ksh does not support it. Problem reported by Thomas Schulz in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2010-11/msg00000.html>.
Also, fix a related bug: "-e -" was mishandled. These two bugs
were introduced by commit 5b54db4546b84ec97ff57a62f8ddb98faacf77f2
dated 2009-10-09.
(escape): Change the convention: do not assume that a stray X
is present at the end of the last line. All uses changed.
There was no longer any need for this convention, and fixing this
made it a bit easier to use 'sed' in a later part of the fix.
2010-11-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
maint: fix copyright dates that were munged by a maintenance script
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in:
* zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
A script went awry when updating copyright dates in gzip's shell
scripts. It should update comments to look like "# Copyright (C)
2007, 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc." (with a set of years)
and version messages to look like "Copyright (C) 2010 Free
Software Foundation, Inc." (with just the most-recent year).
Instead, it sometimes ignored one, sometimes the other, and
typically put ranges into version messages. Fix all this stuff by
hand, using dates that I divined from the change logs (so they're
a bit more accurate than script-generated dates). We need to fix
the script before it runs in 2011.

gzip -cdf mishandles some concatenated input streams: test it
* tests/mixed: Exercise "gzip -cdf" bug.
* Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Add it.
Mark Adler reported the bug.
tests: move the hufts-segv test to its own file

tests: begin moving tests into their own files
* Makefile.am (TESTS): Add tests/stdin.
(check-local): Move the stdin check to its own file:
* tests/stdin: New script.
tests: remove unnecessary use of "path_prepend_ ."
It is unnecessary, since Makefile.am's TESTS_ENVIRONMENT setting
already adds the top build directory, and besides, is only
marginally useful when running stand-alone, since it presumes
that the script is being run from the top build directory.
* tests/helin-segv: Remove unnecessary use of path_prepend_.
* tests/memcpy-abuse: Likewise.
* tests/trailing-nul: Likewise.
* tests/zdiff: Likewise.
* tests/zgrep-f: Likewise.

build: do not override gnulib-provided AM_CFLAGS options
Avoid a warning from automake:
lib/Makefile.am:24: AM_CFLAGS multiply defined in condition TRUE ...
lib/gnulib.mk:30: ... `AM_CFLAGS' previously defined here
lib/Makefile.am:20: `lib/gnulib.mk' included from here
* lib/Makefile.am (AM_CFLAGS): Append $(WARN_CFLAGS) and
$(WERROR_CFLAGS), i.e., use "+=", not "=".
This was introduced via 2009-12-17 commit 0341fc22,
"build: with --enable-gcc-warnings, use -Werror",
but fortunately is not a bug, because the definition
it would have overridden was always empty.
2010-01-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
gzip -d would fail with a CRC error...
...for some inputs, and some memcpy implementations. It is possible
that an offending input has to be compressed "from FAT filesystem
(MS-DOS, OS/2, NT)", since the sole reproducer no longer evokes a
CRC error when uncompressed and recompressed on a GNU/Linux system.
Also, using an unpatched reverse-memcpy-gzip on over 100,000 inputs
on a GNU/Linux system did not turn up another reproducer.
* inflate.c (inflate_codes): Don't call memcpy with overlapping regions.
Properly detect when source and destination overlap.
* tests/memcpy-abuse: New test, to trigger misbehavior.
* Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

* deflate.c (EQUAL): Remove definition. Use "0" at sole point of use.
build: util.c: avoid warnings about add_envopt
* util.c (add_envopt): The parameter "env" was used for two conflicting

Fail if we don't find a free file descriptor.

Testing for existence of /dev/fd/$fd doesn't work on Solaris 10,
since all 256 always exist (as char devices), but testing for
/proc/$$/fd/$fd does work, so do that instead.

different file descriptor, since we're about to use stdin.
