| Summary: The GNU versions of find utilities (find and xargs) | |
The findutils package contains programs which will help you locate files on your system. The find utility searches through a hierarchy of directories looking for files which match a certain set of criteria (such as a file name pattern). The xargs utility builds and executes command lines from standard input arguments (usually lists of file names generated by the find command). You should install findutils because it includes tools that are very useful for finding things on your system.

- Update to 4.5.10
+ doc: The manual now includes a small number of references to
further reading on security.
+ fixed bug #30608: Automagic dependency on selinux. The configure
script now provides a --without-selinux option.
+ fixed bug #29949: find -execdir does not change working directory
+ fixed bug #31359: test-strstr unit test fails on alpha.
+ fixed bug #30777: find -exec echo TURNIP{} \+ is accepted but
TURNIP is eaten
+ fixed bug #30180: error message from incorrect -size option is off
+ fixed bug #29828: test suite deadlock on FreeBSD
+ updated translations - Finnish, Italian, Danish, Slovenian,
German, Estonian, French, Japanese and Danish
- Update to 4.5.9
+ fixed bug #29593: Make import-gnulib.sh work under a POSIX shell.
+ fixed bug #29511: fails to build on kfreebsd-*
+ fixed bug #27563: -L breaks -execdir
+ fixed bug #19593: -execdir .... {} + has suboptimal performance
(see below)
+ updated translation - Chinese (simplified)
+ The find program will once again build argument lists longer
than 1 with "-execdir ...+". The upper limit of 1 argument for
execdir was introduced as a workaround in findutils-4.3.4. The
limit is now removed, but find still does not issue the maximum
possible number of arguments, since an exec will occur each time
find encounters a subdirectory (if at least one argument is
pending).
+ You can now increase the parallelism of xargs in mid-run by
sending it SIGUSR1, and decrease the parallelism with SIGUSR2.
- Update to 4.5.8
+ fixed bug #29460: -printf %Y fails in $CWD-dependent way
+ fixed bug #27974: Use gnulib's xreadlinkat support
+ fixed bug #29435: fd_is_cloexec does not work on Fedora buildhosts
+ fixed bug #27221: symlink_loop check broken by FTS_CWDFD
+ fixed bug #27213: avoid failed assertions for non-executable
directories.
+ updated translations - Vietnamese, Czech, Dutch, Polish, Russian
- Update to 4.5.7
+ If you use the -fstype FOO predicate and specify a filsystem
type FOO which is not known (e.g. present in /etc/mtab) at the
time find starts, that predicate is now equivalent to -false.
This substitution currently occurs at optimisation level 2 and
above.
- Update to 4.5.6
+ patch #4848 - support for SELinux
+ fixed bug #29089 - SELinux --context and %Z options
+ fixed bug #28872: Mistake in "#safer" example in "Problems with
- exec and filenames" section of the Texinfo manual.
+ fixed bug #28824: Corrected error message for "-ctime x".
Likewise for -gid, -inum, -links, -mmin, -cmin, -amin,
- uid, -used, -atime, -mtime, -ctime.
+ fixed bug #27975: Infinite loop for -exec [..] {} +.
+ fixed bug #27846: Assertion failure in xargs.c on AIX.
+ fixed bug #27375: Open file descriptors leak into child processes.
+ fixed bug #27017: find -D opt / -fstype ext3 -print , -quit coredumps
+ fixed bug #27328: segfault if the initial exec for "find -exec" fails.
+ fixed bug #26868: compilation error in pred.c on Solaris x86_64
+ fixed bug #24873: Duplicate fprint option corrupts output
+ fixed bug #23920: warn about un-matchable -path arguments ending in /.
+ fixed bug #19120: Patch to fix single quotes in man page find(1)
+ fixed bug #26327: xargs man page is vague about the number of times
command is executed.
- Update to 4.5.5
+ xargs now handles the case where the system's actual exec limits
are smaller than the value of ARG_MAX at compile time. Very few
platforms normally have this property, but it is possible to
configure sume Unix systems this way.
+ fixed bug #25359 - files/testsuite/find.gnu/posix-h.exp test fail
+ fixed bug #26587 - fix a typo in -execdir documentation (it says
- exec by mistake in the text)
+ fixed bug #26537 - find -prune now makes sure it has valid stat()
information
+ fixed bug #22708 - exit status 126 and 127 from the utility invoked
from xargs now makes xargs return 123, meaning that exit status
values 126 and 127 not unambiguously mean that the utility could
not be run or could not be found, respectively.
+ doc: the -wholename option to find is no longer preferred over
- ipath
- Update to 4.5.4
+ The ftsfind executable (which is built by default as "find") now
calls fts() in such a way that it avoids calling stat() on directory
entries, if it doesn't need the information. This can produce a
significant speedup on filesystems which don't populate the d_type
element of struct dirent, for example reiserfs. Anecdotal evidence
suggests this can speed updatedb up from about 30 minutes to 3-4
minutes.
+ The ftsfind executable also now avoids calling stat() functions to
discover the inode number of a file, if we already read this
information from the directory. This does provide a speed-up, but
only for a restricted set of commands such as "find . -inum 4001".
This fix is listed below as bug #24342
+ fixed bug #25764 - remove duplicate entry for 'proc' in updatedb's
$PRUNEFS
+ fixed bug #25359 - find -H wrongly behaves like -L sometimes; this
bug affects only filesystems which populate d_type and affects
- type and -printf %y. This does not affect the default behavior of
find or find -P
+ fixed bug #25144 - misleading error message when argument to
find -user is an unknown user or is missing
+ fixed bug #25154 - allow compilation with C compilers that don't
allow declarations to follow statements
+ fixed bug #24342 - -inum predicate should use dirent.d_ino instead
of stat.st_ino (this is a performance bug)
+ updated translations - Bulgarian, German, Irish, Hungarian,
Lithuanian, Dutch, Polish, Slovenian, Swedish, Turkish, Ukranian,
Vietnamese
- Update to 4.5.3
+ fixed bug #24283 - find -printf %TY causes NULL pointer dereference
+ changes to gnulib's fts code should provide performance improvements
in find when processing very large directories (for example
directories containing significantly more than 10000 filenames).
Performance improvements may only exist for some find command
lines (performance testing was done for the fts implementation
itself but we haven't done the analogous performance tests in find).
+ file type information is also passed back from fts to find,
saving calls to the stat system call for find command lines
which don't need the stat information. This provides a performance
improvement for common cases like find "find . -type d".
- Update to 4.5.2
+ fixed bug #24169 - find would segfault if the -newerXY test was
not followed by any argument
+ fixed bug #23996 - integer overflow on some platforms when
parsing "-used 3"
+ New translation - Czech
+ Updated translations - French, Indonesian
+ doc: bug #23070 - corrected manpage description of find -perm /000
(the change was already made by the manpage indicated the change
would happen "soon")
- Update to 4.5.1
+ New translation - Lithuanian
+ Updated translation - Chinese (simplified)
+ doc: added a working example describing how to find the
shallowest instances of a given directoty name (or names) in a
directory hierarchy
+ fixed bug #22662 - find -printf %AX appends nanoseconds in the
right place now
+ fixed bug #23663 - crash in some locales for -print %AX (this
problem seems to have affected only the CVS code, and not any
public releases)
- Update to 4.5.0
+ If POSIXLY_CORRECT environment variable is set, the system's
definition of "yes" and "no" responses are used to interpret
the response to questions from -ok and -okdir. The default is
still to use information from the findutils message translations.
+ If xargs find that exec fails because the argument size limit it
calculated is larger than the system's actual maximum, it now
adapts by passing fewer arguments (as opposed to failing)
+ The default optimization level for find is now -O2 instead of
- O0 meaning that a number of additional optimizations are
performed by default. Current optimizations at each level are:
0: Perform -name, -path, -iname, -ipath before other checks
1: Expressions containing only cost-free tests are evaluated
before expressions which contain more costly tests
2: Bring forward all tests that need to know the type of a file
but don't need to stat it
3: All tests are ordered by their estimated cost
Cost here is simply an estimate of how time consuming the I/O
operations needed to make a test are

* Fri Jan 25 2008 schwab@suse.de
- Update to findutils 4.2.32.
* * License changes
This version of findutils is now distributed under version 3 (or
later) of the GNU GPL. The documentation is distributed under
version 1.2 (or later) of the GNU Free Documentation License.
* * Documentation Fixes
[#19596]: -printf %b should be compared with %s/512, not %s/1024.
* * Bug Fixes
[#21568]: When building from CVS in 4.2.x, we now check gnulib out using git
instead of CVS. This fixes Savannah bug 21568, the problem being that
git-cvspserevr does not currently support -D, and the ond CVS server
for gnulib has been frozen.
[#20970]: Trailing slash on directory arguments breaks -name. "find
foo/ -name foo" now correctly matches foo and printf foo/. See POSIX
interp http://www.opengroup.org/austin/interps/uploads/40/14959/AI-186.txt
[#20751]: Avoid memory corruption in find -ls that has been present
since 4.2.28.
[#20662]: Avoid memory leak in find -name and other places affected by
gnulib dirname module. The leak had been present since 4.2.28.
[#20310]: configure uses hosts's support status for "sort -z" when
generating the updatedb script for use on the target. This is not a
reliable strategy when cross-compiling, so assume no support for -z in
that situation.
[#20273]: When xargs is successful without consuming all of stdin (for
example, with the -E option), and stdin is seekable, xargs now
correctly restores the file position, even on platforms where exit()
does not follow the POSIX rules of doing likewise. Likewise for find
(for example, with the -ok action).
[#19660]: Fix compilation failure on Cygwin.
[#15384]: Find misbehaves when parent directory is not readable.
* * Enhancements
[#20688]: The warning printed by -name or -iname when the pattern to
match contains a slash can now be silenced by -nowarn. This warning
was originally introduced unconditionally in 4.2.21.
* Thu Jul 05 2007 schwab@suse.de
- Drop clean core script.
* Sun Jun 03 2007 schwab@suse.de
- Update to findutils 4.2.31.
* * Security Fixes
[#20014]: Findutils-4.2.31 includes a patch for a potential security
problem in locate. When locate read an old-format database, it read
file names into a fixed-length buffer allocated on the heap without
checking for overflow. Although overflowing a heap buffer if often
somewhat safer than overflowing a buffer on the stack, this bug still
has potential security implications.
All previous releases of findutils are affected by this bug. It has
been assigned CVE number CVE-2007-2452.
* * Documentation Fixes
[#19596]: Corrected the documentation for "find -printf %b".
[#19483]: updatedb manpage has inconsistent highlighting for --help
option.
[#19155]: Fixed typo in the output of "locate --help".
* * Other Bug Fixes
[#19658]: When cross-compiling, "make clean" no longer deletes the
generated file doc/regexprops.texi, because there is no way to
regenerate it.
[#19484]: Decompressed data is wrong in locate if the first filename
indexed by updatedb starts with a space (instead of a slash).
* * Other Changes
Findutils has switched to a new way of building the code from gnulib.
There should be no functional difference; the change should not be
visible to those using the findutils binaries, except for changes to
the output of "find --version", which should now show the version of
Gnulib which was used.
* Wed Feb 28 2007 schwab@suse.de
- Update to findutils 4.2.30.
* * Bug Fixes
Savannah Bug #13252: The test suite now works on platforms where
DejaGnu is based on Tcl 8.3 (previously, 8.4 or later was required).
Savannah Bug bug #17861: this version should build on Solaris and HPUX
once again.
Savannah Bug #18433: findutils now compiles if "--enable-debug" was
specified as an option to configure. Previously this caused a
compilation failure in find.
* * Documentation Fixes
Some typos in the Texinfo manual and one typo in in the usage message
for xargs have been fixed.
* Mon Feb 12 2007 schwab@suse.de
- Fix memleaks.
* Mon Dec 04 2006 schwab@suse.de
- Update to findutils 4.2.29.
* * Documentation Fixes
The global effect of options (other than -daystart and -follow) is now
explained more clearly in the manual page. Savannah bug #15360.
* * Bug Fixes
[#17782]: find -execdir now correctly puts the prefix "./" before the
expansion of "{}" rather than at the start of the argument it appears
in. Please note that if you use the -exec or -execdir actions with a
shell, then you may be vulnerable to shell code injection attacks, so
don't do that. It's not a security defect in find - you should not be
passing untrusted data (such as file names chosen by other people) to
the shell.
[#17477]: find -printf '%' (that is, where the format has a trailing %)
now generates an error message.
* Mon Nov 20 2006 schwab@suse.de
- cron.daily.clean_core: robustify even more.
* Mon Oct 16 2006 schwab@suse.de
- cron.daily.clean_core: robustify to avoid matching non-cores [#210987].
* Mon Aug 07 2006 schwab@suse.de
- Update to findutils 4.2.28.
* * Bug Fixes
Savannah bug #15800: If find finds more subdirectories within a parent
directory than it previously expected to based on the link count of
the parent, the resulting error message now gives the correct
directory name (previously an error message was issued but it
specified the wrong directory).
Savannah bug #16738: "find .... -exec ... {} +" now works if you have
a large environment and many files must be passed to the -exec
action. The same problem affected the -execdir action, though since
the number of files in a given directory will normally be smaller, the
problem was worse for -exec.
Savannah bug #16579: Updatedb now works if it is running as a user
whose login shell is not actually a shell.
