        Fix handling of leading whitespace in argstr functions

        Fixes Savannah bug #62355 (in man-db).

        * lib/pipeline.c (argstr_get_word): Skip whitespace at the start of
        words rather than at the end; leading whitespace otherwise resulted in
        prematurely returning NULL.
        * tests/argstr.c (test_argstr_excess_whitespace): New test.
        (argstr_suite): Call test_argstr_excess_whitespace.
        * NEWS.md: Document this.

        Simplify static analysis of fatal errors

        The usual idiom for fatal error reporting in libpipeline is `error
        (FATAL, ...)` (there are a few cases using different exit codes, but
        they're less common).  Unfortunately, there's no easy way to tell the
        compiler that this call doesn't return, because `error (0, ...)` *does*
        return.  As a result, some call sites required extra work to give the
        compiler this information, which can sometimes make a difference to
        static analysis.

        To simplify this, add a new `fatal` helper function which always exits
        `FATAL` (i.e. 2) and never returns.  This is declared with
        `PIPELINE_ATTR_NORETURN` so that the compiler can straightforwardly know
        what's going on.

        * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add verror.
        * lib/fatal.c, lib/fatal.h: New files.
        * lib/Makefile.am (libpipeline_la_SOURCES): Add fatal.c and fatal.h.

        * lib/pipeline.c (pipecmd_new_argstr, pipecmd_exec,
        pipeline_install_sigchld, pipeline_start, pipeline_wait_all,
        pipeline_pump): Use fatal.

2022-02-08  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Explicitly import Gnulib raise module

        It was already implicitly included, but we explicitly use the raise
        function in pipecmd_exec and pipeline_wait_all.

        * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add raise.

2022-01-16  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Update to Gnulib 20220116

        * bootstrap: Sync to Gnulib 1eae0f7ea3c220d054025f2c9211700665f9f4a0.
        * bootstrap.conf (GNULIB_REVISION): Set to

        * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove release.sh.

2022-01-03  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Add release automation

        When a tag is pushed to GitLab, upload the bootstrapped source tarball
        to the package registry, and create a release in GitLab associated with
        the tag.

        * .gitlab-ci.yml (stages): Remove test, since it had no jobs.  Add
        upload and release.
        (upload, release): New jobs.

2022-01-02  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Make NEWS.md list formatting more compact

2022-01-02  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Reformat release notes as Markdown

        * NEWS.md: ... here.  Reformat as Markdown.
        * Makefile.am (dist_noinst_DATA): Replace NEWS with NEWS.md.

2022-01-02  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Remove superfluous quotes

2022-01-02  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Trim down direct Gnulib dependencies slightly

        * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Replace signal with signal-h, since
        we use the corresponding header file directly but not the corresponding
        function.

2022-01-02  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Update to Gnulib 20211231

        * bootstrap: Sync to Gnulib 14db2b71b5bd05b94ec6126617fd32cd5f1016cd.
        * bootstrap.conf (GNULIB_REVISION): Set to
        14db2b71b5bd05b94ec6126617fd32cd5f1016cd.
        (--enable-gcc-warnings): New option, based on code in coreutils.  Use
        this to enable -fanalyzer only if --enable-gcc-warnings=expensive is
        used; it's useful but slow.

2022-01-02  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Add build-distcheck CI artifact

        This should eventually allow publishing release tarballs built by a CI
        process rather than on my laptop.

        * .gitlab-ci.yml (variables): Set GIT_DEPTH to 0; we need full history
        in order to build the ChangeLog file.
        (build-distcheck:before_script): Add git, needed by gitlog-to-changelog.
        (build-distcheck:artifacts): Add bootstrapped/*.tar.gz.

2022-01-02  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Switch CI image to debian:unstable

        This gives us newer versions of various dependencies such as the
        autotools.

        * .gitlab-ci.yml (default:image): Switch from gcc to debian:unstable.
        (pre-commit:before_script): Explicitly install git.
        (bootstrap:before_script): Explicitly install git and pkg-config.

2022-01-01  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Use Gnulib attribute.h properly

        We should be using public names rather than private ones.

        * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add attribute.
        * lib/pipeline.c (pipecmd_get_nargs, pipeline_get_ncommands,
        pipeline_get_command, pipeline_get_pid, pipeline_peek_size): Use
        ATTRIBUTE_PURE rather than _GL_ATTRIBUTE_PURE.

2021-11-28  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Run pre-commit in GitLab CI

        * .gitlab-ci.yml (stages): Add bootstrap.
        (pre-commit): New job.
        (bootstrap): Move to bootstrap stage.

2021-11-07  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Version: 1.5.4

        * lib/Makefile.am (libpipeline_la_LDFLAGS): Bump -version-info to 6:4:5.

2021-11-07  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Ignore the "clang-format" commit for "git blame"

        Developers should apply the following config setting:

            git config blame.ignoreRevsFile .git-blame-ignore-revs

2021-11-07  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Introduce clang-format

        This relieves me of the cognitive burden of having to think about
        trivial formatting details (especially when reviewing code from others,
        but also for myself).  In most cases the reformatted code is equivalent
        or superior in terms of my preferred style to what I wrote myself; there
        was one exception (in pipeline_dump) where I disabled formatting.

        * .clang-format: New file.
        * .pre-commit-config.yaml: Add clang-format hook.
        * lib/*, tests/*: Reformat using clang-format.

2021-11-07  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Fix build warnings in tests

        * tests/common.c (temp_dir_setup): Use ck_abort_msg rather than fail.
        * tests/exec.c (test_exec_process, test_exec_function): Likewise.
        * tests/read.c (test_read_long_line): Likewise.
        * tests/redirect.c (test_redirect_files): Likewise.

2021-11-07  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Introduce pre-commit

        * .pre-commit-config.yaml: New file.
        * lib/appendstr.c, tests/pump.c: Remove trailing whitespace.

2021-11-07  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Simplify conditional SIGPIPE handling

        * lib/pipeline.c (IS_SIGPIPE): New macro.
        (pipecmd_exec, pipeline_wait_all): Use IS_SIGPIPE, thereby avoiding
        needing to put parts of an if/else chain inside #ifdef.

2021-09-19  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Update some obsolete Autoconf macros

        * configure.ac: Replace AC_GNU_SOURCE and AC_ISC_POSIX with
        AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS.  Replace AC_CONFIG_HEADER with
        AC_CONFIG_HEADERS.

2021-09-19  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Stop using obsolete AC_TRY_RUN

        This has been obsolete since Autoconf 2.55.  Use its AC_RUN_IFELSE
        expansion instead.

        * m4/pipeline-socketpair.m4 (PIPELINE_SOCKETPAIR_PIPE): Expand
        AC_TRY_RUN calls using AC_RUN_IFELSE.

2021-06-05  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Update remaining HTTP URLs to HTTPS

        * COPYING: Update from current contents of
        https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txt (no substantive licensing
        changes, only updated URLs).
        * Makefile.am (ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS): Update URL in comment to use HTTPS.
        * README.md (Installation): Update URLs for pkg-config and check.
        (Note on GPL versions): Update GNU licence compatibility URL to use
        HTTPS.
        * lib/pipeline.c (clearenv): Update dovecot reference; the old URL used
        HTTP and had gone stale.

2020-11-25  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Upgrade to Gnulib 20201125

        In line with Gnulib, we now require Autoconf 2.64.

        * bootstrap: Sync to Gnulib f2a67f071d170920314c9a3b8de3e85259b4e010.
        * bootstrap.conf (GNULIB_REVISION): Set to
        f2a67f071d170920314c9a3b8de3e85259b4e010.
        (buildreq): Bump required autoconf version to 2.64.
        * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Bump to 2.64.
        * NEWS: Document this.

2020-11-25  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        NEWS: Document move to GitLab

2020-11-25  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Flesh out README

        * README: Move to ...
        * README.md: ... here.  Reformat as Markdown.
        (Using the library): New section, mainly borrowed from the project
        homepage.

2020-11-25  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Document migration to GitLab

        * README: Add link to GitLab repository.
        (Bug reporting): New section.

2020-11-25  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Add .gitlab-ci.yml

2020-08-13  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Version: 1.5.3

        * lib/Makefile.am (libpipeline_la_LDFLAGS): Bump -version-info to 6:3:5.

2020-08-03  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Port tests to the modern Check API

        Fixes Savannah bug #58883.

        * configure.ac: Test for check >= 0.9.10.
        * tests/argstr.c, tests/basic.c, tests/exec.c, tests/inspect.c,
        tests/pump.c, tests/read.c, tests/redirect.c: Replace uses of
        fail_unless and fail_if with appropriate ck_assert_* calls.  In most
        cases these now use more specific equality etc. tests rather than just
        passing arbitrary predicates.
        * README: Document updated dependency.
        * NEWS: Document this.

2020-07-04  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Fix handling of read/write errors

        safe_read and safe_write return size_t and define SAFE_READ_ERROR and
        SAFE_WRITE_ERROR as error return values.  We had previously been
        assigning their result to a signed value.  As a result, whether
        passthrough, pipeline_pump, and get_block would detect read/write errors
        was implementation-defined.

        * lib/pipeline.c (passthrough, get_block): Assign safe_read return value
        to a size_t rather than a signed integer type, and check for
        SAFE_READ_ERROR rather than negative values.
        (pipeline_pump): Assign safe_write return value to a size_t rather than
        an ssize_t, and check for SAFE_WRITE_ERROR rather than negative values.
        * NEWS: Document this.

2020-01-01  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Version: 1.5.2

        * lib/Makefile.am (libpipeline_la_LDFLAGS): Bump -version-info to 6:2:5.
        * README: Update copyright dates.

2020-01-01  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        * NEWS: Document pipeline_start doc change

2020-01-01  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        pipecmd_exec: Flush stdio in PIPECMD_FUNCTION case

        This fixes a regression in eceb4fc9c1a800739f3876a5c9538376adc77876
        where we could lose some output from functions that write to standard
        output but don't explicitly flush.

        * lib/pipeline.c (pipecmd_exec): Flush output streams before exiting in
        the PIPECMD_FUNCTION case.

2020-01-01  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        pipeline_start: Document that standard FDs must be open

        Fixes Ubuntu bug #992271.

        * lib/pipeline.h (pipeline_start): Document that FDs 0, 1, and 2 must be
        open before calling this function.
        * man/libpipeline.3 (pipeline_start): Likewise.

2019-12-27  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Use _exit rather than exit in pipecmd_exec

        This avoids bugs such as functions registered using atexit being called
        multiple times.

        * lib/pipeline.c (pipecmd_exec): Call _exit rather than exit.
        * NEWS: Document this.

2019-08-30  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Enable many more GCC warnings

        * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add manywarnings.<Paste>
        * configure.ac: Add gl_MANYWARN_ALL_GCC, with some refinements to disable
        -Wsystem-headers, -Wmissing-field-initializers, and -Winline.

2019-08-30  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Add several function attributes suggested by GCC

        * lib/debug.c (vdebug): Mark first argument as a printf format string.
        * lib/pipeline.c (pipecmd_get_nargs, pipeline_get_ncommands,
        pipeline_get_command, pipeline_get_pid, pipeline_peek_size): Mark as
        pure.

2019-08-30  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Make several functions static

        * tests/argstr.c (argstr_suite): Make static.
        * tests/basic.c (basic_suite): Likewise.
        * tests/exec.c (exec_suite): Likewise.
        * tests/inspect.c (inspect_suite): Likewise.
        * tests/pump.c (pump_suite): Likewise.
        * tests/read.c (read_suite): Likewise.
        * tests/redirect.c (redirect_suite): Likewise.

2019-08-30  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Simplify some GCC attribute handling

        We have to be a little careful, as we can't use Gnulib in the public
        <pipeline.h> header; but we can rely on it for internal compilation
        units.

        * lib/pipeline.c (passthrough): Use _GL_UNUSED rather than
        PIPELINE_ATTR_UNUSED.
        * tests/basic.c (pre_exec): Likewise.
        * tests/common.h (MAIN): Likewise.
        * tests/inspect.c (pid_helper): Likewise.
        * tests/pump.c (tee_source): Likewise.
        * lib/pipeline.h (PIPELINE_ATTR_UNUSED): Note that this is unused, but
        preserved to avoid breaking (even undocumented) API.

2019-01-30  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Use HTTPS URL

        * README, lib/libpipeline.pc.in (URL): Update homepage URL to
        https://nongnu.org/libpipeline/.

2019-01-27  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Version: 1.5.1

        * NEWS: Note Gnulib portability improvements.

2019-01-27  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Update to Gnulib 20190124

        * bootstrap.conf (GNULIB_REVISION): Set to
        34881aff4043847f2640d90cf9aa325cc3ad08d6.

2019-01-05  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Note requirement of Automake 1.11.2

        AM_PROG_AR was actually introduced in 1.11.2, not 1.11.

        * bootstrap.conf (buildreq): Bump required automake version to 1.11.2.
        * NEWS: Clarify.

        Upgrade to Gnulib 20190105

        In line with Gnulib, we now require Autoconf 2.63 and Automake 1.11.

        * bootstrap: Sync to Gnulib d271f868a8df9bbec29049d01e056481b7a1a263.
        * bootstrap.conf (GNULIB_REVISION): Set to
        d271f868a8df9bbec29049d01e056481b7a1a263.
        (buildreq): Bump required autoconf version to 2.63.
        * configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Bump to 1.11.
        (AM_SILENT_RULES, AM_PROG_AR): Remove conditionals, which were there for
        Automake 1.10 support.
        (AC_PREREQ): Bump to 2.63.
        * NEWS: Document this.

2019-01-05  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Use tar --sort=name if available

        * m4/pipeline-tar-sort-name.m4: New file.
        * configure.ac: Call PIPELINE_TAR_SORT_NAME.

2018-12-24  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        More (void *) 0 as variadic sentinel

        * tests/basic.c (test_basic_status, test_basic_args,
        test_basic_pipeline, test_basic_wait_all, test_basic_setenv,
        test_basic_unsetenv, test_basic_clearenv, test_basic_chdir,
        test_basic_fchdir, test_basic_pre_exec, test_basic_sequence): Use
        (void *) rather than NULL as a sentinel for variadic functions.
        * tests/common.c (temp_dir_teardown): Likewise.
        * tests/exec.c (test_exec_process): Likewise.
        * tests/inspect.c (test_inspect_command, test_inspect_pipeline):

2018-12-24  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Use (void *) 0 as a variadic sentinel

        NULL is formally incorrect here since the standard allows it to be an
        integer constant expression.

        * lib/pipeline.c (argstr_get_word, pipecmd_tostring, pipeline_tostring):
        Use (void *) rather than NULL as a sentinel for variadic functions.

        Avoid gl directory confusion

        * bootstrap.conf (local_gl_dir): Set to 'gnulib-local'.

        Prefer the Gnulib versions of some more files

        reverting to bootstrap's default of also copying some files in
        build-aux/ from Gnulib.)

2018-05-28  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Clean up bootstrap configuration slightly

        * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_name, source_base, m4_base): Set these instead

2018-05-27  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Switch to bootstrap

        We no longer keep autogenerated files in git.

        * .gitignore: Add **/Makefile.in, /INSTALL, /aclocal.m4, /build-aux,
        /config.h.in, /configure, /gl, and /gnulib.  Remove gnulib/*.
        * INSTALL, Makefile.in, aclocal.m4, autogen.sh, build-aux, config.h.in,

        * bootstrap, bootstrap.conf: New files.
        * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS, EXTRA_DIST, ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS): Refer to gl/

        Remove gnulib/m4/gnulib-cache.m4 and gnulib/m4/gnulib-tool.m4.
        * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Refer to gl/ rather than gnulib/.
        * lib/Makefile.am (libpipeline_la_CPPFLAGS, libpipeline_la_LIBADD):

2017-07-10  Colin Watson  <cjwatson@debian.org>

        Fix EOF detection in get_line

        end-of-file.  Instead, keep track of the previous buffer length returned
        by get_block; if we get the same length twice in a row then that
        indicates EOF.
        * tests/reading_long_line.c: Rename to ...
        * tests/read.c: ... this.  Update build system and test names to match.
        (slow_line_helper, test_read_readline_slow): New test.
