In most common use cases:
- We can bypass a lot of `write_output` when width == 0.
- Simplify format_float_decimal when the input is an integer.
Also document another interesting case in src/uu/seq/BENCHMARKING.md.
Display hexadecimal floats with arbitrary precision.
Note that some of the logic will produce extremely large
BitInt as intermediate values: there is some optimization
possible here, but the current implementation appears to work
fine for reasonable numbers (e.g. whatever would previously
fit in a f64, and even with somewhat large precision).
No more f64 operations needed, we just trim (or extend) BigDecimal to
appropriate precision, get the digits as a string, then add the
decimal point.
Similar to what BigDecimal::write_scientific_notation does, but
we need a little bit more control.
Using an associated type in Formatter trait was quite nice, but, in
a follow-up change, we'd like to pass a _reference_ to the Float
Formatter, while just passing i64/u64 as a value to the Int
formatters. Associated type doesn't allow for that, so we turn
it into a generic instead.
This makes Format<> a bit more complicated though, as we need
to specify both the Formatter, _and_ the type to be formatted.
Will make it possible to directly print ExtendedBigDecimal in `seq`,
and gradually get rid of limited f64 precision in other tools
(e.g. `printf`).
Changes are mostly mechanical, we reexport ExtendedBigDecimal directly
in format to keep the imports slightly shorter.
Issue #7494
Improve performace of wc app.
- Use the bytecount::num_chars API to count UTF-8 characters in a file.
- Enable runtime-dispatch-simd feature in the bytecount crate.
Use a BufWriter to wrap stdout: reduces the numbers of system calls,
improves performance drastically (2x in some cases).
Also document use cases in src/uu/seq/BENCHMARKING.md, and the
optimization we have just done here.
Fix issue #7372
Rework logic for handling all-but-last-lines and all-but-last-bytes
for non-seekable files. Changes give large performance improvement.
Commit https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/3396/commits/2a0d58d060eb51ee482e7e8a764f36bda21105e5 (part of https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/3396 which contains a description of the changes) changed this line from libc::fsid_t to nix::sys::statfs::fsid_t.
The pull-request description at https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/3396 indicates that this was done in order to fix the android build, and indeed using a cast to nix::sys::statfs::fsid_t
takes advantage of the definition of nix::sys::statfs::fsid_t which abstracts away the different name on Android:
```
/// Identifies a mounted file system
#[cfg(target_os = "android")]
pub type fsid_t = libc::__fsid_t;
/// Identifies a mounted file system
#[cfg(not(target_os = "android"))]
pub type fsid_t = libc::fsid_t;
```
This cast works as long as the libc version used by nix is the same than the libc version used by coreutils.
This cast becomes invalid when using a local libc version for local debugging, and changing Cargo.toml to point to it:
```
-libc = "0.2.153"
+libc = { path = "../path/to/libc" }
```
The cast becomes invalid because self.f_fsid is of type libc::fsid_t (local version of
libc), whereas nix::sys::statfs::fsid_t still uses the libc version downloaded
by cargo from crates.io in this case.
I was getting this error:

Let's rather use type inference to deal with libc::fsid_t vs libc::__fsid_t.

When using `touch -t` with a 2 digit year, the year is interpreted as
a relative year to 2000.
When the year is 68 or less, it should be interpreted as 20xx.
When the year is 69 or more, it should be interpreted as 19xx.
This is the behavior of GNU `touch`.
fixes gh-7280
Arguably 2 digits years should be deprecated as we
are already closer to 2069, than 1969.
The current ioctl operation code for FICLONE is fully open-coded instead
of using the ioctl macros, which makes it non-portable to other
architectures including mips, arm & powerpc. Get the constant from the
linux-raw-sys crate instead, which is already a transitive dependency.
