[This bug was present in "the beginning".]  'b2sum --check' will no longer read unallocated memory when  presented with malformed checksum lines.  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.2]  'cp --parents' again succeeds when preserving mode for absolute directories.  Previously it would have failed with a "No such file or directory" error.  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.1]  'cp --sparse=never' will avoid copy-on-write (reflinking) and copy offloading,  to ensure no holes present in the destination copy.  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.0]  cksum again diagnoses read errors in its default CRC32 mode.  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.0]  'cksum --check' now ensures filenames with a leading backslash character  are escaped appropriately in the status output.  This also applies to the standalone checksumming utilities.  [bug introduced in coreutils-8.25]  dd again supports more than two multipliers for numbers.  Previously numbers of the form '1024x1024x32' gave "invalid number" errors.  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.1]  factor, numfmt, and tsort now diagnose read errors on the input.  [This bug was present in "the beginning".]  'install --strip' now supports installing to files with a leading hyphen.  Previously such file names would have caused the strip process to fail.  [This bug was present in "the beginning".]  ls now shows symlinks specified on the command line that can't be traversed.  Previously a "Too many levels of symbolic links" diagnostic was given.  [This bug was present in "the beginning".]  pinky, uptime, users, and who no longer misbehave on 32-bit GNU/Linux  platforms like x86 and ARM where time_t was historically 32 bits.  Also see the new --enable-systemd option mentioned below.  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.0]  'pr --length=1 --double-space' no longer enters an infinite loop.  [This bug was present in "the beginning".]  shred again operates on Solaris when built for 64 bits.  Previously it would have exited with a "getrandom: Invalid argument" error.  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.0]  tac now handles short reads on its input.  Previously it may have exited  erroneously, especially with large input files with no separators.  [This bug was present in "the beginning".]  'uptime' no longer incorrectly prints "0 users" on OpenBSD,  and is being built again on FreeBSD and Haiku.  [bugs introduced in coreutils-9.2]  'wc -l' and 'cksum' no longer crash with an "Illegal instruction" error  on x86 Linux kernels that disable XSAVE YMM.  This was seen on Xen VMs.  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.0]** Changes in behavior  'cp -v' and 'mv -v' will no longer output a message for each file skipped  due to -i, or -u.  Instead they only output this information with --debug.  I.e., 'cp -u -v' etc. will have the same verbosity as before coreutils-9.3.  'cksum -b' no longer prints base64-encoded checksums.  Rather that  short option is reserved to better support emulation of the standalone  checksum utilities with cksum.  'mv dir x' now complains differently if x/dir is a nonempty directory.  Previously it said "mv: cannot move 'dir' to 'x/dir': Directory not empty",  where it was unclear whether 'dir' or 'x/dir' was the problem.  Now it says "mv: cannot overwrite 'x/dir': Directory not empty".  Similarly for other renames where the destination must be the problem.  [problem introduced in coreutils-6.0]** Improvements  cp, mv, and install now avoid copy_file_range on linux kernels before 5.3  irrespective of which kernel version coreutils is built against,  reinstating that behavior from coreutils-9.0.  comm, cut, join, od, and uniq will now exit immediately upon receiving a  write error, which is significant when reading large / unbounded inputs.  split now uses more tuned access patterns for its potentially large input.  This was seen to improve throughput by 5% when reading from SSD.  split now supports a configurable $TMPDIR for handling any temporary files.  tac now falls back to '/tmp' if a configured $TMPDIR is unavailable.  'who -a' now displays the boot time on Alpine Linux, OpenBSD,  Cygwin, Haiku, and some Android distributions  'uptime' now succeeds on some Android distributions, and now counts  VM saved/sleep time on GNU (Linux, Hurd, kFreeBSD), NetBSD, OpenBSD,  Minix, and Cygwin.  On GNU/Linux platforms where utmp-format files have 32-bit timestamps,  pinky, uptime, and who can now work for times after the year 2038,  so long as systemd is installed, you configure with a new, experimental  option --enable-systemd, and you use the programs without file arguments.  (For example, with systemd 'who /var/log/wtmp' does not work because  systemd does not support the equivalent of /var/log/wtmp.)-Also posted athttps://savannah.gnu.org/news/?id=10505
