(dired-test-directory-files-and-attributes): New tests.
This reverts most of commit 14fb657ba8
and its followup fixes, and instead fixes the original bugs in a
different manner that doesn't affect any unrelated use cases. As
part of this, the code which caused 'expand-file-name' to enforce
a trailing slash on expanded directories is removed, as this kind
of semantic processing is outside of 'expand-file-name's scope.
* src/fileio.c (Fexpand_file_name): If expanding default_directory
yields a remote file name, call its handlers. (Bug#26911)
(Bug#34834)
* doc/lispref/files.texi (File Name Expansion): Remove the
requirement that expanding a directory name yields a directory
name, i.e. that the expansion must end in a slash.
* etc/NEWS: Remove the announcement of the changed behavior of
'expand-file-name' wrt trailing slashes.
* test/src/fileio-tests.el (fileio-tests--HOME-trailing-slash)
(fileio-tests--expand-file-name-trailing-slash): Remove tests.
* test/lisp/net/tramp-tests.el (tramp-test05-expand-file-name): No
need to expect different results in Emacs 28 and later.
Problem reported by Yegor Timoshenko (Bug#26911),
and I ran into it myself recently in normal-top-level.
* doc/lispref/files.texi (File Name Expansion), etc/NEWS: Mention this.
* src/fileio.c (Fexpand_file_name): Expand "/a/b/." to "/a/b/" not
"/a/b", to avoid misinterpreting a symlink "/a/b". Similarly,
expand "/a/b/c/.." to "/a/b/" not "/a/b".
* test/lisp/net/tramp-tests.el (tramp-test05-expand-file-name):
Adjust to match new behavior.
(tramp-test05-expand-file-name-relative): This test now succeeds,
at least on Fedora 31.

* doc/lispref/files.texi (Changing Files): Document the new funtion.
* etc/NEWS (Lisp Changes in Emacs 28.1): Announce it.
This is a companion to the recent set-file-modes patch.
It adds support for a ‘nofollow’ flag to set-file-times (Bug#39773).
Like the set-file-modes patch, it needs work in the w32 port.
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES): Add futimens, utimensat.
Remove utimens.
* doc/lispref/files.texi (Changing Files):
* etc/NEWS: Mention the change.

When setting file times, avoid following symbolic links
when the file is not supposed to be a symbolic link.
* lib/futimens.c, lib/utimensat.c, m4/futimens.m4, m4/utimensat.m4:
New files, copied from Gnulib.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-cloud.el (gnus-cloud-replace-file):
When creating a file that is not supposed to exist already,
use the excl flag to check this.

* lisp/net/tramp-sh.el (tramp-sh-handle-set-file-times):

and add a FIXME comment for it.
* lisp/net/tramp-gvfs.el (tramp-gvfs-handle-set-file-times):
* src/fileio.c (Fset_file_times):
Support an optional FLAG arg.
* src/fileio.c (Fcopy_file): Use futimens instead of set_file_times,
as it’s simpler and is a POSIX API.
* src/sysdep.c (set_file_times): Move from here ...
* src/w32.c (set_file_times): ... to here, and make it static,
since it is now used only in w32.c. Presumably w32.c should also
add support for futimens and utimensat (the POSIX APIs, which
Emacs now uses) and it can remove fdutimens (the Gnulib API,
which Emacs no longer uses).
This avoids some race conditions (Bug#39683). E.g., if some other
program changes a file to a symlink between the time Emacs creates
the file and the time it changes the file’s permissions, using the
new flag prevents Emacs from inadvertently changing the
permissions of a victim in some completely unrelated directory.
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES): Add fchmodat.
* doc/lispref/files.texi (Testing Accessibility, Changing Files):
* doc/lispref/os.texi (File Notifications):

* m4/gnulib-comp.m4: Regenerate.
Problem reported by Andreas Schwab (Bug#37475).
* doc/lispref/files.texi (Writing to Files)
(Testing Accessibility, Kinds of Files):
Document that accessibility and file-type predicates return nil
if there is trouble determining accessibility or type.
* etc/NEWS: Adjust, and list the affected primitives.
* src/callproc.c (init_callproc): Go back to Ffile_exists_p.
* src/fileio.c (PICKY_EACCES, file_test_errno):
Remove. All uses removed.
(Ffile_name_case_insensitive_p, Ffile_exists_p, Ffile_symlink_p)
(Ffile_directory_p, Ffile_regular_p): Document that these
functions return nil if there is trouble.
(Ffile_name_case_insensitive_p, check_file_access)
(Ffile_writable_p, Ffile_symlink_p, Ffile_directory_p)
(Ffile_accessible_directory_p, Ffile_regular_p)
* src/lread.c (Fload):
Go back to treating trouble in determining the answer as if the
file were missing.
* src/fileio.c (Ffile_newer_than_file_p): Use file_attribute_errno
not file_test_errno, since returning nil is not appropriate when
there are two files to test; e.g., in the rare cases where both
file timestamps have overflowed then neither t nor nil is correct.
Signal an error for file-oriented errors that are not tame
errors like ENOENT and ENOTDIR (Bug#37389).
Do this for primitives exposed to Lisp; the lower
level internal C API merely makes errno values available
to higher-level C code.
* doc/lispref/files.texi (Testing Accessibility)
(File Attributes, Extended Attributes): Do not say that the
functions return nil when the return value cannot be determined.
* etc/NEWS: Mention the change.
* src/dired.c (Ffile_attributes): Fix doc string confusion
about opening a file vs getting its attributes.
(file_attributes): Signal serious errors.
* src/fileio.c (check_existing, check_executable)
(check_writable): Remove. All callers changed to use
check_file_access or file_access_p.
(file_access_p, file_metadata_errno, file_attribute_errno)
(file_test_errno, check_file_access, check_emacs_readlinkat):
New functions.

(Ffile_system_info):
* src/filelock.c (unlock_file, Ffile_locked_p):
* src/lread.c (Fload):
Signal serious errors.
* src/fileio.c (Ffile_writable_p): Remove unnecessary CHECK_STRING.
(emacs_readlinkat): Now static.
* src/filelock.c (current_lock_owner, lock_if_free): Return a
positive errno on error, and the negative of the old old value
on success. All callers changed.
* src/lread.c (openp): Propagate serious errno values to caller.
Fit in better with the XDG conventions.
Something like this was suggested in 2008 (Bug#583)
and the XDG conventions seem to have settled down by now.
* doc/emacs/custom.texi (Init File, Init Syntax, Find Init):
* doc/lispref/files.texi (Standard File Names):
* doc/lispref/os.texi (Init File):
* doc/misc/url.texi (Customization):
* etc/NEWS:
Adjust accordingly.
* lisp/startup.el (startup--load-user-init-file):
If init-file-name is nil, do not load from it; instead
just use the alt-file.
(find-init-path): Remove; no longer used.
(command-line): Don't check twice for XDG.
Look at XDG_CONFIG_HOME instead of assuming it's ~/.config.
Prefer XDG configuration if it exists; the user can disable
this by setting XDG_CONFIG_HOME to some other place.
* lisp/subr.el (user-emacs-directory):
Prefer XDG configuration if it exists.
Derived from Ken Brown’s patch (Bug#36502#97).

* src/fileio.c (user_homedir): New function.
