Log Message:
coreutils: Update to 9.2

Changelog:
* Noteworthy changes in release 9.2 (2023-03-20) [stable]

** Bug fixes

  'comm --output-delimiter="" --total' now delimits columns in the total
  line with the NUL character, consistent with NUL column delimiters in
  the rest of the output.  Previously no delimiters were used for the
  total line in this case.
  [bug introduced with the --total option in coreutils-8.26]

  'cp -p' no longer has a security hole when cloning into a dangling
  symbolic link on macOS 10.12 and later.
  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.1]

  'cp -rx / /mnt' no longer complains "cannot create directory /mnt/".
  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.1]

  cp, mv, and install avoid allocating too much memory, and possibly
  triggering "memory exhausted" failures, on file systems like ZFS,
  which can return varied file system I/O block size values for files.
  [bug introduced in coreutils-6.0]

  cp, mv, and install now immediately acknowledge transient errors
  when creating copy-on-write or cloned reflink files, on supporting
  file systems like XFS, BTRFS, APFS, etc.
  Previously they would have tried again with other copy methods
  which may have resulted in data corruption.
  [bug introduced in coreutils-7.5 and enabled by default in coreutils-9.0]

  cp, mv, and install now handle ENOENT failures across CIFS file systems,
  falling back from copy_file_range to a better supported standard copy.
  [issue introduced in coreutils-9.0]

  'mv --backup=simple f d/' no longer mistakenly backs up d/f to f~.
  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.1]

  rm now fails gracefully when memory is exhausted.
  Previously it may have aborted with a failed assertion in some cases.
  [This bug was present in "the beginning".]

  rm -d (--dir) now properly handles unreadable empty directories.
  E.g., before, this would fail to remove d: mkdir -m0 d; src/rm -d d
  [bug introduced in v8.19 with the addition of this option]

  runcon --compute no longer looks up the specified command in the $PATH
  so that there is no mismatch between the inspected and executed file.
  [bug introduced when runcon was introduced in coreutils-6.9.90]

  'sort -g' no longer infloops when given multiple NaNs on platforms
  like x86_64 where 'long double' has padding bits in memory.
  Although the fix alters sort -g's NaN ordering, that ordering has
  long been documented to be platform-dependent.
  [bug introduced 1999-05-02 and only partly fixed in coreutils-8.14]

  stty ispeed and ospeed options no longer accept and silently ignore
  invalid speed arguments, or give false warnings for valid speeds.
  Now they're validated against both the general accepted set,
  and the system supported set of valid speeds.
  [This bug was present in "the beginning".]

  stty now wraps output appropriately for the terminal width.
  Previously it may have output 1 character too wide for certain widths.
  [bug introduced in coreutils-5.3]

  tail --follow=name works again with non seekable files.  Previously it
  exited with an "Illegal seek" error when such a file was replaced.
  [bug introduced in fileutils-4.1.6]

  'wc -c' will again efficiently determine the size of large files
  on all systems.  It no longer redundantly reads data from certain
  sized files larger than SIZE_MAX.
  [bug introduced in coreutils-8.24]

** Changes in behavior

  Programs now support the new Ronna (R), and Quetta (Q) SI prefixes,
  corresponding to 10^27 and 10^30 respectively,
  along with their binary counterparts Ri (2^90) and Qi (2^100).
  In some cases (e.g., 'sort -h') these new prefixes simply work;
  in others, where they exceed integer width limits, they now elicit
  the same integer overflow diagnostics as other large prefixes.

  'cp --reflink=always A B' no longer leaves behind a newly created
  empty file B merely because copy-on-write clones are not supported.

  'cp -n' and 'mv -n' now exit with nonzero status if they skip their
  action because the destination exists, and likewise for 'cp -i',
  'ln -i', and 'mv -i' when the user declines.  (POSIX specifies this
  for 'cp -i' and 'mv -i'.)

  cp, mv, and install again read in multiples of the reported block size,
  to support unusual devices that may have this constraint.
  [behavior inadvertently changed in coreutils-7.2]

  du --apparent now counts apparent sizes only of regular files and
  symbolic links.  POSIX does not specify the meaning of apparent
  sizes (i.e., st_size) for other file types, and counting those sizes
  could cause confusing and unwanted size mismatches.

  'ls -v' and 'sort -V' go back to sorting ".0" before ".A",
  reverting to the behavior in coreutils-9.0 and earlier.
  This behavior is now documented.

  ls --color now matches a file extension case sensitively
  if there are different sequences defined for separate cases.

  printf unicode \uNNNN, \UNNNNNNNN syntax, now supports all valid
  unicode code points.  Previously is was restricted to the C
  universal character subset, which restricted most points <= 0x9F.

  runcon now exits with status 125 for internal errors.  Previously upon
  internal errors it would exit with status 1, which was less distinguishable
  from errors from the invoked command.

  'split -n N' now splits more evenly when the input size is not a
  multiple of N, by creating N output files whose sizes differ by at
  most 1 byte.  Formerly, it did this only when the input size was
  less than N.

  'stat -c %s' now prints sizes as unsigned, consistent with 'ls'.

** New Features

  cksum now accepts the --base64 (-b) option to print base64-encoded
  checksums.  It also accepts/checks such checksums.

  cksum now accepts the --raw option to output a raw binary checksum.
  No file name or other information is output in this mode.

  cp, mv, and install now accept the --debug option to
  print details on how a file is being copied.

  factor now accepts the --exponents (-h) option to print factors
  in the form p^e, rather than repeating the prime p, e times.

  ls now supports the --time=modification option, to explicitly
  select the default mtime timestamp for display and sorting.

  mv now supports the --no-copy option, which causes it to fail when
  asked to move a file to a different file system.

  split now accepts options like '-n SIZE' that exceed machine integer
  range, when they can be implemented as if they were infinity.

  split -n now accepts piped input even when not in round-robin mode,
  by first copying input to a temporary file to determine its size.

  wc now accepts the --total={auto,never,always,only} option
  to give explicit control over when the total is output.

** Improvements

  cp --sparse=auto (the default), mv, and install,
  will use the copy_file_range syscall now also with sparse files.
  This may be more efficient, by avoiding user space copies,
  and possibly employing copy offloading or reflinking,
  for the non sparse portion of such sparse files.

  On macOS, cp creates a copy-on-write clone in more cases.
  Previously cp would only do this when preserving mode and timestamps.

  date --debug now diagnoses if multiple --date or --set options are
  specified, as only the last specified is significant in that case.

  rm outputs more accurate diagnostics in the presence of errors
  when removing directories.  For example EIO will be faithfully
  diagnosed, rather than being conflated with ENOTEMPTY.

  tail --follow=name now works with single non regular files even
  when their modification time doesn't change when new data is available.
  Previously tail would not show any new data in this case.

  tee -p detects when all remaining outputs have become broken pipes, and
  exits, rather than waiting for more input to induce an exit when written.

  tee now handles non blocking outputs, which can be seen for example with
  telnet or mpirun piping through tee to a terminal.
  Previously tee could truncate data written to such an output and fail,
  and also potentially output a "Resource temporarily unavailable" error.
