-
- *) Fix sign error in apr_file_seek(APR_END).
- [Greg Hudson <ghudson MIT.EDU>]
-
- *) Provide workaround for socklen_t declaration problem with 64-bit
- build on HP-UX. Stop setting a PA-RISC-specific compile option
- on ia64. Look for -mt thread option, which is used with HP-UX
- vendor compiler on ia64. [Jeff Trawick, based on idea from
- Madhusudan Mathihalli]
-

- O_LARGEFILE flag; not recommended for general use, see
- include/apr_file_io.h. [Joe Orton]
-
- *) Various build fixes: thread_rwlock.c on some Solaris platforms
- (PR 22990); filestat.c on ReliantUnix (PR 22990); config.status
- on IRIX (PR 19251). [Various]
-
- *) Use NI_NAMEREQD instead of NI_NUMERICHOST in
- APR_CHECK_GETNAMEINFO_IPV4_MAPPED. PR 24469. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Ensure that apr_sockaddr_info_get() does not return anything
- other than AF_INET and AF_INET6 addresses. [Joe Orton]
-
- *) Clarify that apr_dir_read() does not guarantee order of returned
- entries as previously claimed. [Joe Orton]
-
- *) The whole codebase was relicensed and is now available under
- the Apache License, Version 2.0 (http://www.apache.org/licenses).
- [Apache Software Foundation]
-
- *) Define apr_off_t as long rather than as off_t on platforms with a
- 32-bit off_t to prevent incompatibility with packages such as
- Perl which redefine the size of off_t via _FILE_OFFSET_BITS on
- some platforms. [Ben Reser <ben reser.org>]
-
- *) apr_socket_connect(): allow app to make subsequent call on
- non-blocking socket. [Jeff Trawick]

-
- *) Fix make_exports.awk to work with apr-iconv. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
-Changes with APR 0.9.4
-
- *) win32: fix apr_file_dup() and apr_file_dup2() to dup the
- ungetchar member [Stas Bekman]
-
- *) Preserve leading '../' segments as when merging to an empty and
- unrooted path - fixes a bug observed in SVN with Win32/Netware/OS2.
- [Mike Pilato <cm...@collab.net>, William Rowe]
-
- *) Work around a bug in Darwin when calling getnameinfo() on IPv4-mapped
- IPv6-addresses. [Colm MacCárthaigh <co...@stdlib.net>, Jeff Trawick,
- Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Add apr_temp_dir_get() for getting the most suitable temp directory
- [Mike Pilato <cm...@collab.net>, Thom May]
-
- *) Modify apr_sockaddr_info_get to call the resolver when we
- do not have a hostname. Also, fix bugs in the getaddrinfo()
- implementation.
- [Colm MacCárthaigh <co...@stdlib.net>, Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Change the behavior of unix process 'trylock's to return
- APR_ENOTIMPL instead of segfaulting, consistent with the
- other lock implementations. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Fix a subtle race where the ownership of a unix nested
- thread lock could be corrupted when the prior owner released
- the lock with another thread waiting on the same lock.
- [William Rowe]
-
- *) apr_socket_data_set(): allow the same key to be used for
- multiple sockets in the same pool. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add new table function apr_table_compress() and replace
- red-black trees with mergesort in apr_table_overlap()
- [Joe Schaefer <jo...@sunstarsys.com>, Brian Pane]
-
- *) Win32: Adopt Brian Havard's OS/2 rwlock implementation for
- Windows [Marc Adkins, Bill Stoddard]
-
- *) Add apr_proc_mutex_lockfile() for retrieving the name of the
- file associated with a mutex. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Don't require the lock file name to be passed into
- apr_proc_mutex_child_init() or apr_global_mutex_child_init().
- This allows child init to work when the lock file was a temp
- file created by APR. (The problem only occurred with flock-
- based mutexes.) [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) When using a temporary file for flock- and fcntl-based mutexes,
- don't let the file be deleted on close. For flock-based mutexes,
- this corrects a fatal problem, since the file would disappear
- when a program was spawned and cleanup-for-exec was performed,
- and a subsequent attempt to perform child process mutex
- initialization would fail. For fcntl-based mutexes, this was a
- very minor issue that resulted in a failing unlink() when the
- file was closed, since fcntl lock initialization always removes
- the file immediately. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) When writing to pipes with a timeout set, handle the situation
- where the kernel says the pipe is writable but an attempt to
- write <= PIPE_BUF bytes gets EAGAIN. APR will now write whatever
- data will fit. APR applications that relied on the atomic nature
- of relatively small pipe write requests may be affected.
- PR 20295 [Mark Street <ma...@faime.demon.co.uk>, Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Define _THREAD_SAFE for all compilations on AIX. Previously
- those of us who used the vendor compiler had it defined
- implicitly and others did not. The difference became obvious
- with the recent thread safety fixes to apr_password_validate().
- PR 20420 [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) For apr_proc_detach(APR_PROC_DETACH_FOREGROUND), don't treat
- a setsid() failure as fatal, as the usual cause is that the
- caller is already a process group leader. PR 18519
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Fix some problems with non-blocking socket handling on unix
- that resulted in infinite timeouts being used for non-blocking
- sockets with apr_socket_connect() and some read/write calls.
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Fix a bug in socket timeout handling on unix that left the
- socket non-blocking after disabling the timeout.
- [Jacob Craig Lewallen <jl...@cs.ucr.edu>]
-
- *) Added flag APR_FILE_ATTR_HIDDEN for manipulating the "hidden"
- file attribute on Windows and OS/2. [Branko Cibej]
-
- *) SECURITY [CAN-2003-0245]: Fixed a bug that could be triggered
- remotely through mod_dav and possibly other mechanisms, causing
- an Apache child process to crash. The crash was first reported
- by David Endler <DE...@iDefense.com> and was researched and
- fixed by Joe Orton <jo...@redhat.com>. Details will be released
- on 30 May 2003.
-
- *) apr_proc_wait(): Handle interrupted waitpid(2) calls by calling
- it repeatedly until it succeeds or fails with errno other than
- EINTR. This hides this UNIX-specific behavior from APR clients.
-
- *) Removed the solaris-specific atomic code, due to licence
- concerns (it was MPL 1.0, and the author could not be contacted)
- [Ian Holsman]
-
- *) apr_file_gets(): Return APR_SUCCESS if any characters are
- returned. Any I/O errors or EOF will be reported on the
- next call. Callers that are coded to expect returned
- data + APR_EOF when there is no final newline are affected
- by this change. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) apr_proc_create() on Unix: Make the APR_SHELLCMD mode work
- when there is more than one program argument passed in.
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add --cc and --cpp flags to apr-config. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Don't segfault trying to close a file in error paths of flock
- and fcntl mutex creation. PR 19036 [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add %pT support to apr_snprintf() for printing an apr_os_thread_t.
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add APR_TCP_NODELAY_INHERITED & APR_O_NONBLOCK_INHERITED to apr.hw
- [Allan Edwards]
-
- *) Add APR_UINT64_T_HEX_FMT. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add parameter to APR_SUBDIR_CONFIG to drop options passed to configure
- before the subdir's configure is invoked.
- [Jeff Trawick, Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Implement APR_SO_RCVBUF socket option on Unix.
- [Adam Sussman <my...@vishnu.vidya.com>]
-
- *) Don't add the math library (-lm) if the modf() function
- is already available via libc. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Solaris cc: Don't use the -mt option for threaded builds. That
- is for non-Posix threading, and the use of it prevented us from
- linking with -lpthread, which in turn caused weird problems for
- APR applications. [Kristofer Spinka <ks...@style.net>]
-
- *) OS/2: apr_stat() fixes - When a character device is stat'ed,
- fill in finfo.name if it was asked for. Return APR_INCOMPLETE
- when appropriate. Addresses httpd incident [CAN-2003-0134].
- [Brian Havard]
-
-Changes with APR 0.9.3
-
- *) Don't enable posixsem, at build time, on systems where sem_t *
- won't "fit" into an int (sizeof-wise). Also, better error handling
- when we fail to create a posixsem. PR 17186 [Scott Herod
- <sh...@pillardata.com>, Jim Jagielski]
-
- *) Default hpux 10.x to disable threading, since if it exists at all
- the pthread implementation should not be trusted, while hpux 10
- had its own threads implementation that is no longer supported.
- PR 9457 [William Rowe]
-
- *) Fix error in apr-config when symlinks are involved.
- [Garrett Rooney <ro...@electricjellyfish.net>]
-
-Changes with APR 0.9.2
-
- *) Numerous bug fixes for file and socket inheritence by child
- processes on Unix, correcting bugs that affected the correct
- behavior of apr_[file|socket]_inherit_[un]set() API.
- [Bjoern A. Zeeb <bz...@zabbadoz.net>, William Rowe, Joe Orton]
-
- *) Define APR_UINT64_T_FMT and APR_UINT64_T_FMT_LEN.
- Define APR_INT64_T_FMT_LEN on Windows and Netware. [Branko Cibej]
-
- *) Correct apr_file_gets() on OS2 and Win32 so that '\r's are no longer
- eaten, and apr_file_gets() -> apr_file_puts() moves the contents
- uncorrupted. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Alter Win32's handling of the apr_proc_t hproc member, so that we
- close that system handle wherever an apr function would invoke the
- final waitpid() against a zombie process on Unix. [William Rowe]
-
- *) APR_MAX_SECONDS_TO_LINGER and APR_FNM_* #defines replace their
- old undecorated names (missing APR_ prefix). The old names will
- disappear with APR 1.0.0.
- [Craig Rodrigues <ro...@attbi.com>, William Rowe]
-
-
- *) When generating a semaphore name for posixsem locking, try to
- be a little more robust (and unique). [Jim Jagielski]
-
- *) Add functions apr_env_get, apr_env_set and apr_env_delete for
- manipulating the environment. [Branko Cibej]
-
- *) Fix APR_LAYOUT to work with layout files with no preceding blank lines
- and emit errors when layout is not found. PR 15679.
- [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Add functions apr_filepath_list_split and apr_filepath_list_merge
- for managing search paths. [Branko Cibej]
-
- *) Introduce Release mode debugging symbols for Win32 builds of apr.
- All library builds gain /Zi for debug symbols (which are discarded
- at link time if some flavor of the /debug flag isn't passed to link)
- and .dll builds gain .pdb symbols. [Allen Edwards, William Rowe]
-
- *) Add two new proc attributes to improve diagnostics for
- apr_proc_create() failures on platforms where fork()+exec() is used.
- See the doc for apr_procattr_child_errfn_set() and
- apr_procattr_error_check_set(). [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Rename rules.mk to apr_rules.mk and make apr_rules.mk be installed.
- [Thom May]
-
- *) Fix a bug in apr_proc_create() that could cause a new child process
- to run the parent's code if setrlimit() fails. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Disable apr_socket_sendfile() on 64-bit AIX to avoid an apparent
- system problem. PR 11408. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add --includedir flag to apr-config. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Only include sys/syslimits.h if we don't have limits.h
- [Craig Rodrigues <ro...@attbi.com>, Garrett Rooney
- <ro...@electricjellyfish.net>, Thom May]

-
- *) Namespace protect the header files in include/arch
- [Thom May]
-
- *) Add function apr_filepath_encoding and associated constants.
- [Branko Cibej]
-
- *) Allow apr_hash to have greater than int number of elements.
- [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Allow generation of dependencies by non-GCC compilers.
- [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Prevent obscenely large values of precision in apr_vformatter
- from clobbering a buffer. [Sander Striker, Jim Jagielski]
-
- *) limit the renames performed in apr_rename.pl to the most recent renames.
- [Thom May]
-
- *) Changed apr_mmap_dup() and friends so that there's no longer any
- is_owner concept on the mmaped region, but rather something more
- along the lines of a reference count. This allows the old apr_mmap_t
- to still be used safely when the new apr_mmap_t is in a disjoint pool.
- [Cliff Woolley, Sander Striker]
-
- *) Fix a bug in apr_hash_merge() which caused the last entry in the
- overlay hash to be lost. PR 10522 [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add DougM's apr_rename.pl script into helpers, and update for the new
- batch of updates [Thom May]
-
- *) Renames done (deprecated functions wrapped):
- apr_filename_of_pathname -> apr_filepath_name_get
- apr_get_groupid -> apr_gid_get
- apr_get_groupname -> apr_gid_name_get
- apr_compare_groups -> apr_gid_compare

- apr_recv -> apr_socket_recv
- [Thom May]
-
- *) Add APR_IPV6_V6ONLY socket option. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Update timeout algorithm in free_proc_chain. If a subprocess
- did not exit immediately, the thread would sleep for 3 seconds
- before checking the subprocess exit status again. In a very
- common case when the subprocess was an HTTP server CGI script,
- the CGI script actually exited a fraction of a second into the 3
- second sleep, which effectively limited the server to serving one
- CGI request every 3 seconds across a persistent connection.
- [Bill Stoddard, Kai.Risku@arrak.fi]
-
- *) Update doxygen tags. [Justin Erenkrantz]

- now return the exit code from the program and a reason that the
- program died, either normal exit or signalled.
- [Jeff Trawick and Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Implement portable accessors for proc mutex. These are equivalent
- to apr_os_lock_get/set, but they work for apr_proc_mutex_t types
- instead. [Aaron Bannert]
-
- *) Added a new parameter to apr_thread_mutex_init(). Now, by default,
- thread mutexes are not nested (sometimes called "recursive"). To
- enable nested mutexes, a flag must be passed to the init script.
- Non-nested mutexes are much faster than nested ones.
- [Aaron Bannert]
-
- *) read_with_timeout in apr/file_io/win32/readwrite.c incorrectly
- returned APR_SUCCESS instead of APR_EOF when PeekNamedPipe failed
- and the result from GetLastError() was ERROR_BROKEN_PIPE. Because
- of this, the pipe wasn't closed as soon as it could be.
- [Tim Costello <ti...@zcmgroup.com.au>]
-
- *) Fix a problem in the Win32 pipe creation code called by
- apr_proc_create(): It didn't register cleanups for either the
- read or the write ends of the pipe, so file handles (and event
- handles for pipes with asynchronous I/O mode set) are never
- closed. [Tim Costello <ti...@zcmgroup.com.au>]
-
- *) Add support for QNX 6. [J.T. Conklin <jt...@acorntoolworks.com>]
-
- *) We now create exports.c and export_vars.h, which in turn create
- exports.c. From this we generate two more files with different
- purposes: apr.exp - list of exported symbols; and exports.lo
- (exports.o) - an object file that can be linked with an executable
- to force resolution of all apr symbols. [Aaron Bannert]
-
- *) Add the apr_thread_cond_timedwait function to the condition
- variable API. [Aaron Bannert]
-
- *) Fixed apr_file_mktemp on systems without mkstemp (Win32, etc).
- [Mladen Turk, Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Fix a segfault in apr_poll_clear on Unix. Also fix the logic
- for the case where there are multiple events ORed together in
- the events list. [Jamshid Mahdavi <ma...@volera.com>]
-
- *) Files opened on Unix with the flag APR_DELONCLOSE are now
- not unlinked until they are actually closed, rather than as
- soon as they're opened. The old approach worked but made
- handling temp files harder. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Fix potential segfault when closing a file on Unix. If
- apr_file_close() was called and it failed, it would not
- deregister the file cleanup. Therefore the cleanup would
- be run again later on a now-invalid descriptor. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Introduce apr_pool_lock for debugging, in combination with
- ALLOC_USE_MALLOC + DEBUG_WITH_MPROTECT. Only implemented
- on Win32 today, very effective for debugging pool constness.
- [William Rowe]
-
- *) Optimize apr_pstrcat by caching lengths of first 6 strings
- [Brian Pane <bp...@pacbell.net>]
-
- *) Add pool accessors to the apr_thread_mutex_t datatype.
- [Aaron Bannert <aa...@clove.org>]
-
- *) Add the apr_file_mktemp function. This creates and opens a
- temporary file, for use by the program. This file is created
- delete_on_close. The initial implementation only works on
- Unix, but Windows is coming soon. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Make the unix version of apr_proc_wait_all_procs a simple wrapper
- around apr_proc_wait, and which extracts the exit code from the
- status returned by waitpid.
- [Kevin Pilch-Bisson <ke...@pilch-bisson.net>]
-
- *) Add process locking API to APR. [Aaron Bannert <aa...@clove.org>]
-
- *) Add condition variables for Windows. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Add condition variables to the APR set of locking functions.
- This does Unix, and provides stubs for all other platforms.
- [Aaron Bannert <aa...@clove.org>]
-
- *) Don't search for IPv6 names in apr_sockaddr_info_get() if the
- application doesn't specify the family (i.e., the application
- passes in AF_UNSPEC) and APR isn't built with IPv6 support.
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Fix the API for the apr_proc_create() call on Win32. Several
- bad assumptions are gone, including a mismatch between unix and
- win32, where win32 was defaulting to create detached. Also fixes
- the apr_proc_t's pid member to a real pid (identity that works
- across processes) instead of the handle (which is a new hproc
- member value.) [William Rowe]
-
- *) Modify the external apr_filepath_get() fn to take a flags arg,
- currently only for APR_FILEPATH_NATIVE. This returns c:\foo
- format on Win32, and should do the same on OS2, or sys\vol:\foo
- on Netware. Primarily for internals, but possibly useful to
- others (and it mirrors some of the other apr_filepath_*() calls.)
- [William Rowe]
-
- *) Add the new thread read/write lock API to APR.
- [Aaron Bannert <aa...@clove.org>]
-
- *) Add the new thread mutex lock API to APR.
- [Aaron Bannert <aa...@clove.org>]
-
- *) Cache GMT offset on platforms that don't store it in the tm struct.
- This offset is normalized to be independent of daylight savings
- time. [Brian Pane <bp...@pacbell.net>]
-
- *) Initial support for cygwin. [Stipe Tolj <to...@wapme-systems.de>]
-
- *) Fix a problem with buffered files on Unix. [Brian Havard]
-
- *) Fix the bungling of getaddrinfo() error codes. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add an apr_thread_once function to APR. This allows a
- program to ensure that a function is only called once.
- [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) APR Documentation is now in Doxygen format.
- [Ian Holsman]
-
- *) Get apr_ungetc() to work with buffered files on Unix.
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Fixed apr_filepath_root on Unix [William Rowe, Cliff Woolley].
-
- *) Rename XtOffset to APR_XtOffset. This namespace protection
- is important to keep from conflicting with other packages.
- [Perl]
-
- *) Introduce a new --disable-ipv6 option to disable IPv6 support.
- [Sterling Hughes <st...@designmultimedia.com>, Jeff
- Trawick]
-
- *) Fix the new shared memory code. We need to pass a pointer to
- an apr_file_t to apr_file_open. Also, apr_os_file_get returns
- a status value, not the OS file descriptor. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Fix the new shared memory configure script. The APR_DECIDE
- macros go in order, so the last set of dependancies that are
- met are the ones used. That means that when using those macros,
- options should be listed with the least desirable option first,
- and the most desirable last. The new shared memory routines did
- the opposite, so we chose the wrong shared memory option on Linux.
- [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Move the necessary shared memory code from MM into APR and remove
- our dependency upon MM. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Get apr_lock_file and apr_unlock_file working on Windows 9x.
- [Mladen Turk, Bill Stoddard]
-
- *) Make all APR pools be allocated out of the permanent pool.
- This brings APR pools back to a tree structure. There are
- no longer any way to create a pool that is not a decendant
- of the permanent_pool. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Wrap all functions in APR_DECLARE macro.
- [Sterling Hughes <st...@designmultimedia.com>]
-
- *) Non-blocking connects shouldn't be calling connect a second
- time. According to Single Unix, a non-blocking connect has
- succeeded when the select pops successfully. It has failed
- if the select failed. The second connect was causing 502's
- in the httpd-proxy. [John Barbee barbee@veribox.net]
-
- *) Fix apr_dir_rewind() for Win32 to avoid returning a bogus error.
- [Jeff Trawick, William Rowe]
-
- *) Detect required libraries first. This minimizes the libraries
- needed in apr_hints.m4. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Support the AIX, glibc2, and Solaris variants of gethostby{name|addr}_r.
- Use gethostbyaddr_r function when available.
- [Sterling Hughes <st...@designmultimedia.com>]
-
- *) Add new socket option, APR_INCOMPLETE_READ, that should be
- set when you expect the first non-blocking read to fail with
- EAGAIN. Setting APR_INCOMPLETE_READ prior to calling apr_read
- will cause select() to be called first to wait for bytes
- to read. [Brian Pane, Dean Gaudet]
-
- *) Better installation. This makes us install the APRVARS file,
- as well as MM. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Provide new number conversion functions apr_itoa, apr_ltoa, and
- apr_off_t_toa, and inline code in inet_ntop4, to reduce CPU
- consumption. [Brian Pane]
-
- *) Updated APR to pass the thread worker_function prototype
- (apr_thread_start_t) two parameters, the apr private data
- (apr_thread_t*) and the application private data (void*).
- Applications' worker_thread() routines may use apr_thread_pool_get
- to access the pool (implemented using APR_POOL_*_ACCESSOR() macros.)
- [Aaron Bannert <aa...@ebuilt.com>]
-
- *) Add Solaris 8's sendfilev() support. This requires the following
- patches from Sun: 111297 (Sparc), 111298 (x86). You'll need the
- other patches listed in the patch description. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Close file descriptor when we are done with fcntl or flock-based
- cross-process lock. Otherwise, we leak descriptors.
- [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Fix a possible data corruption problem with the use of getpwnam_r() on
- all platforms where that function is used.
- Use getpwnam_r() and getgrgid_r() instead of getpwnam() and getgrgid()
- with threaded builds on glibc (2.1, at least) to avoid thread safety
- issues. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Added apr_lock_tryacquire. It will attempt to acquire the lock, but
- will not block if it can not acquire the lock. Returns APR_EBUSY if
- acquistion can not happen. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Added an inherit flag to apr_socket_create and other socket creation
- functions. This allows APR programs to specify that a socket should
- be passed to any child processes that are created. The inherit flag
- is only meaningful if programs use apr_process_create(). This
- also adds a couple of macros that allow APR types to set and unset
- the inherit flag. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) apr_connect()on Windows: Handle timeouts and returning the proper
- status code when a connect is in progress. [Bill Stoddard]
-
- *) apr_connect() on Unix: Handle EINTR during connect(). Handle timeouts.
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Handle the weird case where getpwnam() returns NULL but errno is zero.
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add apr_file_flags_get() which returns the flags that were originally
- passed in to apr_file_open(). [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Added APR_HAS_XTHREAD_FILES macro that indicates whether or not the
- platform handles files opened in APR_XTHREAD mode natively. Currently
- only Win32 has such native support. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Fix gmt offset handling on Solaris. Apache log messages now show
- local time again. PR #7902 [Taketo Kabe <ka...@sra-tohoku.co.jp>]
-
- *) apr_pstrcat() optimizations [Doug MacEachern, Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Make the apr_pool_is_ancestor logic public. This is required for
- some new logic that is going into HTTPD. I have left the join logic
- in that function debug only. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Clean up Win32 locks when the pool goes away.
- [Justin Erenkrantz, Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Implement apr_get_home_directory for Win32. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Complete the implementation of LARGEFILE support on Win32, although
- the mmap semantics still need a touch of work. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Fix the APR_XTHREAD support, and apr_sendfile mechanics, so we can
- handle cross-threaded file handles on Win32. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Implement APR_READWRITE locks on Unix with POSIX rwlocks.
- Introduce new apr_lock_acquire_rw() function which takes in
- APR_READER or APR_WRITER. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Add apr_open_stdin. This mirrors apr_open_stderr, except it works
- on stdin. [Aaron Bannert <ab...@ebuilt.com>]
-
- *) Add apr_strtok(), a thread-safe flavor of strtok() which has the
- same interface as strtok_r(). [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add other child support to Win32 [Bill Stoddard]
-
- *) Other-child registrations are automatically removed when the
- associated pool is destroyed. This avoids garbage in the list
- of registrations when a pool with a registration is freed.
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Allow LTFLAGS to be overridden by the configure command-line
- (default="--silent") and introduce LT_LDFLAGS. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Add memory code kindly donated to APR by
- Elrond <el...@samba-tng.org>
- Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <lk...@samba-tng.org>
- Sander Striker <st...@samba-tng.org>
- [David Reid]
-
- *) Fix a problem with the FreeBSD flavor of apr_sendfile() where we
- could return APR_EAGAIN+bytes_sent. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Fix a problem on unixware where clearing h_errno wouldn't work.
- Use set_h_errno() instead. PR #7651 [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add the test and build directories (when present) to the recursive
- make process, being sure that they are run last. test is only done
- recursively for make *clean targets. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Make the apr_mmap_create() function use the native_flags variable.
- This allows us to actually create WRITEABLE MMAPs.
- [Ed Korthof <ed...@apache.org>]
-
- *) Completely revamp configure so that it preserves the standard make
- variables CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS and LIBS by moving
- the configure additions to EXTRA_* variables. Also, allow the user
- to specify NOTEST_* values for all of the above, which eliminates the
- need for THREAD_CPPFLAGS, THREAD_CFLAGS, and OPTIM. Fix the setting
- of INCLUDES and EXTRA_INCLUDES. Check flags as they are added to
- avoid pointless duplications. Fix the order in which flags are given
- on the compile and link lines. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Fix DSO code on HP/UX. We have to use == not =, and it makes more
- sense to actually return errno, so that the return code means
- something. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Clean up conditionals in unix DSO code so that we decide based on
- the dynamic loading implementation, which we noticed at configure
- time, instead of by operating system.
- [Wilfredo Sanchez]
-
- *) Add DSO support for dyld platforms (Darwin/Mac OS and OpenStep).
- [Wilfredo Sanchez]
-
- *) Amend the time code to better deal with time zones.
- [David Reid]
-
- *) Carefully select an appropriate native type for apr_int64_t and
- define its format as APR_INT64_T_FMT and literal using APR_INT64_C().
- [Justin Erenkrantz, William Rowe]
-
- *) Make clean, distclean, and extraclean consistently according to the
- Gnu makefile guidelines. [Justin Erenkrantz <je...@ebuilt.com>]
-
- *) Initial implementation of of apr_filepath (get/set/parse_root and
- merge) for Windows. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Cleaned up implementation of of apr_filepath (get/set/parse_root
- and merge) for Unix. [Greg Stein, William Rowe]
-
- *) Fixup the --enable-libtool option. This allows the test directory
- to compile again. The test directory still doesn't work when
- APR is configured without libtool. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) If we don't have sigwait() in the system, see if sigsuspend() is
- available, and use that instead. [Wilfredo Sanchez]
-
- *) Make libtool optional at configure time. This is done with
- --disable-libtool. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Recognize systems where the TCP_NODELAY setting is inherited from
- the listening socket, and optimize apr_setsockopt(APR_TCP_NODELAY)
- accordingly. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Recognize the presence of getnameinfo() on Tru64. [David Reid]
-
- *) Allow APR to be installed. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Generate config.nice for easy re-run of configure. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Define preprocessor flags in CPPFLAGS instead of CFLAGS and
- bring some sanity to the compiler command-lines. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Use the dso/aix subdirectory for older versions of AIX and fix
- a number of bugs in the dso code in that directory.
- [Victor Orlikowski]
-
- *) Allow libtool 1.3b to be used. [Victor Orlikowski]
-
- *) Misc. Win32 fixes: Set the pool pointer in apr_sockaddr_t
- structures created with the apr_socket_t to prevent segfault
- in certain apps. Flush unwritten buffered data when the file
- is closed. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Win32: Get APR to compile with MSVC 5.0 (a.k.a. VC97).
- PR #7489 [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) First draft implementation of apr_filepath (get/set/parse_root
- and merge) for Unix. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Add apr_ipsubnet_create() and apr_ipsubnet_test() for testing
- whether or not an address is within a subnet. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add apr_sendto and apr_recvfrom for Unix. Start of adding UDP
- support. [David Reid]
-
- *) Add a method to get the password from the system for a given
- user. [John Barbee <jb...@covalent.net>]
-
- *) Change the include path order, so that we look for included files
- in the APR paths first, and the system paths second.
- [jean-frederic clere <jf...@fujitsu-siemens.com>]
-
- *) Add a with-sendfile option, so that people on platforms without a
- sendfile implementation for APR can easily disable it from the
- configure line. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Change the check for netinet/tcp.h to work around an issue with
- that header file on IRIX 6.5 which prevented it from being
- detected. PR #6459 [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Introduce apr_get_userid to return a named user's apr_uid_t and
- apr_gid_t across platforms [Cliff Woolley, William Rowe]
-
- *) In apr_shm_init(), check the retcode from mm_malloc(). Previously,
- we segfaulted here if mm_malloc() failed to get a lock. An example
- error scenario is when the lock file lives on a filesystem which
- doesn't support locking. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Name protected the autoconf macros defined by APR. Moved the
- REENTRANCY_FLAGS settings into apr_hints.m4. Inlined the
- APR_PREPARE_MM_DIR macro because it could only be used once.
- Removed the unused macros MY_TRY_RUN, MY_TRY_RUN_NATIVE, and
- AC_USE_FUNCTION. Added some macro comments. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Cope with BSDi installations where the default make has been
- replaced with GNU make. [Joe Orton <jo...@manyfish.co.uk>]
-
- *) Changed apr/helpers to apr/build to be consistent with other Apache
- source trees. Added make variables to rules.mk.in that point to the
- builders directory and its scripts. Updated buildconf, configure.in,
- and Makefile.in files to create and use the new scripts. Moved scandoc
- to scandoc.pl and its default.pl template to scandoc_template.pl.
- [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Updated config.guess and config.sub to GNU libtool 1.3.5 features,
- with the Apache additions for OS/390 and OS/2 emx. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Moved hints.m4, apr_common.m4, and helpers/apr-conf.m4 into the
- new build directory as apr_hints.m4, apr_common.m4, apr_network.m4,
- and apr_threads.m4. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Get apr_sendfile() working on HP-UX. This gets APR to build on
- HP-UX without having to turn off APR_HAS_SENDFILE. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Force FreeBSD to compile without threads by default. To enable
- threads, use --enable-threads on the configure line.
- [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Purge system password buffer before returning from apr_password_get.
- No longer abuses bufsize argument on return. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Moved the prototypes for apr_snprintf and apr_vsnprintf to the
- apr_strings.h header, from apr_lib.h. This location makes more
- sense. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Added the APR_TRY_COMPILE_NO_WARNING configure macro for testing a
- compile with -Werror as well as the APR_CHECK_ICONV_INBUF macro to
- test for annoying iconv prototype differences.
- [Jeff Trawick, Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Fix a problem with configure on NetBSD. We must include sys/types.h
- for some platforms. [jun-ichiro hagino <it...@kame.net>]
-
- *) Some fixes in the Win32 time support.
- (IsLeapYear): New macro for quickly figgerin' out if a given year is a
- leap year. (SystemTimeToAprExpTime): Perform the calculation of
- tm_yday. Also, negate the sign of the tm_gmtoff field to be
- consistent with Unix platforms and APR header file comments.
- [Mike Pilato]
-
- *) Implement WinNT Unix'ish permissions. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Corrected an OS2'ism of apr_get_home_directory. OS2 now returns the
- proper directory, including the user's name.
-
- *) Removed private os2errno.h and integrated the OS2 network error codes
- into apr_errno.h for optimized error tests (APR_STATUS_IS_EFOO(rv)).
- [William Rowe]
-
- *) Moved inclusion of <os2.h> header from multiple modules into apr.h
- [William Rowe]
-
- *) Added apr_compare_users() and apr_compare_groups() for more complex
- apr_uid_t and apr_gid_t structures. Enabled both .user and .group
- results from WinNT/2000 stat/getfileinfo, but expect to find that
- .group is 'None' in most cases. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Replace configure --with-optim option by using the environment
- variable OPTIM instead. This is needed because configure options
- do not support multiple flags separated by spaces. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Eliminate the APR_SIG* aliases for standard signal names,
- since they serve no useful purpose. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Abstracted apr_get_username and apr_get_groupname for unix and win32.
- Modified Win32 apr_uid_t and apr_gid_t to use PSIDs, and elimintated
- the uid_t and gid_t definitions. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Radically refactored apr_stat/lstat/getfileinfo/dir_read for Win32
- to assure we are retrieving what we expect to retrieve, and reporting
- the correct result (APR_SUCCESS or APR_INCOMPLETE). The potential
- for a bit more optimization still remains. [William Rowe]
-
- *) While we have the future opportunity to cache the apr_stat'ed file
- handle for a very fast open (dup handle) on Win32, patched to close
- that file after a stat always. Needs a new semantic before we leave
- handles dangling when the user intends to rm. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Correct Win32 apr_stat/lstat/getfileinfo/dir_read to all zero out
- the finfo buffer on success (or incomplete success). [William Rowe]
-
- *) Fix Win32/Unix apr_lstat to throw the .valid bit APR_FINFO_LINK to
- indicate we attempted to open the link. Only the .filetype APR_LNK
- reflects if the file found was, in fact, a link. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Fixed apr_open and apr_rename to function on Win9x.
- [Mike Pilato <cm...@collab.net>]
-
- *) Add apr_open_stdout. This mirrors apr_open_stderr, except it works
- on stdout. [Mike Pilato <cm...@collab.net>]
-
- *) Fix bug in file_io/unix/dir.c. There is no such thing as a dirent,
- it must be a struct dirent.
- [Kevin Pilch-Bisson <ke...@pilch-bisson.net>]
-
- *) Fix the configure script so that we can build from a different
- directory. [Kevin Pilch-Bisson <ke...@pilch-bisson.net>]
-
- *) Introduce the wanted flag argument to the apr_stat/lstat/getfileinfo
- family of functions. This change allows the user to determine what
- platform-specific file information is retrieved, to optimize both
- portability and performance. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Fix make depend. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) All dso implementations now register a cleanup to unload the DSO
- when it is loaded. If the pool is removed, we really do need to
- remove the DSO. In the past, different platforms behaved differently
- it this respect. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Add linkage declarations to the DSO code.
- [Gregory Nicholls <gn...@level8.com>]
-
- *) Some adjustment of hints.m4 setting flags (used to check if null
- first) and added some verbosity. [Jim Jagielski]
-
- *) Specify APR_DECLARE to some of the APR functions. This helps linking
- on some operating systems. [Gregory Nicholls <gn...@level8.com>]
-
- *) Libtool'ized APR and converted all the makefiles to share rules
- from helpers/rules.mk. [Greg Stein]
-
- *) Remove a warning on FreeBSD. FreeBSD defines TCP_NO_PUSH, but we
- don't actually use it. This causes os_cork to be defined but not
- used. This patch keeps us from defining os_cork and os_uncork on
- FreeBSD. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Keep apr_terminate from seg faulting on terminate. This is
- happening on systems that do not NULL out locks when they are
- destroyed. To keep this from happening, we set the locks to
- NULL after destroying them in apr_terminate, and we have to
- check for NULL in free_blocks.
- [Allan Edwards and Gregory Nicholls <gn...@level8.com>]
-
- *) Remove the ability to allocate memory out of a NULL pool.
- [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Add an APR_GET_POOL macro to get a pool from any APR type that has
- a pool. This requires that ALL apr types put the pool as the first
- field in their structure. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Begin to remove the ability to allocate out of NULL pools. The first
- problem to solve, is that we need an apr_lock in order to allocate
- pools, so that we can lock things out when allocating. So, how do we
- allocate locks without a pool to allocate from? The answer is to create
- a global_apr_pool, which is a bootstrapping pool. There should NEVER
- be a sub-pool off this pool, and it is static to an APR file. This is
- only used to allow us to allocate the locks cleanly, without using the
- NULL pool hack. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Fix a logic error in the poll code when implemented using select.
- [Nick Caruso <nc...@gamesville.com>]
-
- *) FreeBSD does not support sendfile() in combination with threads
- before version 4.2. We no longer even try to support it.
- [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) On FreeBSD, it is possible for the first call to sendfile to
- get EAGAIN, but still send some data. This means that we cannot
- call sendfile and then check for EAGAIN, and then wait and call
- sendfile again. If we do that, then we are likely to send the
- first chunk of data twice, once in the first call and once in the
- second. If we are using a timed write, then we check to make sure
- we can send data before trying to send it. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Cleanup to help Apache support programs build cleanly.
- [Cliff Woolley <cl...@yahoo.com>]
-
- *) Cleanup some compiler warnings on Solaris
- [Dale Ghent <da...@elemental.org>]
-
- *) apr_getaddrinfo() can now return multiple addresses for a host
- via the next field in apr_sockaddr_t. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Tighten up the check for getaddrinfo(). If it can't figure out
- the appropriate address family for 127.0.0.1, it fails.
- Unfortunately, Tru64 fails this test so we won't do IPv6 on
- Tru64. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Rename apr_opendir to apr_dir_open. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) apr_snprintf()'s %pI format string now takes apr_sockaddr_t *
- instead of sockaddr_in *. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Fix a bug in apr_accept() for Win32 and Unix where the local
- apr_sockaddr_t in the new connected socket was not initialized
- properly. This could result in a bad string for apr_get_ipaddr(),
- among other things. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add apr_getnameinfo(), a replacement for apr_get_hostname() which
- supports IPv6 and will be friendlier for use with eventual
- SOCK_DGRAM support. apr_get_hostname() is gone. [Jeff Trawick]
-
-
-Changes with APR a9
-
- *) Removed the iconv implementation from the i18n/unix/iconv branch.
- This now resides in the apr-iconv repository, and will be ported
- over time to use native apr types (e.g. apr_dso) for portability.
-
- *) Only support IPv6 if we have sockaddr_in and a working
- getaddrinfo(). [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add apr_parse_addr_port() for parsing the hostname:port portion
- of URLs and similar strings. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add Win32 MMAP support [William Rowe]
-
- *) Allow the APR programmer to specify if the MMAP is read-only or
- write-able.
- [Ryan Bloom and Will Rowe]
-
- *) Check more carefully for getaddrinfo(). Accept those that
- require <netdb.h> to be included (e.g., Tru64). Reject those that
- fail a very basic operational test (e.g., AIX). [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add apr_make_os_sock() for constructing a fully-capable APR
- socket. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Make APR's shared memory routines always allocate enough memory
- for the requested segment, the MM internal types, and the APR
- internal types.
- [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Add APR_SIZE_T_FMT. Get the other APR_xx_T_FMT variables
- defined properly on AIX. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) network API changes: get rid of apr_get_socket_inaddr(),
- apr_get_remote_name(), and apr_get_local_name() [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Add a step at configure time to create a file at the top-level,
- apr.exports, which lists every function exported by APR. The
- file is generated by a script in helpers, that reads each header
- file.
- [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Lock config changes: Detect SysV sem capability by the presence of
- sempaphore functions, not by the presence of union semun. New
- config variable apr_lock_method can override autodetection of the
- apr_lock implementation method. For now, hints.m4 uses it to select
- SysV semaphores for OS/390. New config variable
- apr_process_lock_is_global specifies that the selected inter-process
- lock method is sufficient for APR_LOCKALL (i.e., it blocks all
- threads and processes). For now, hints.m4 turns on this flag for
- OS/390. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Get APR_OFF_T_FMT defined properly on Solaris Sparc.
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
-
-Changes with APR a8
-
- *) Change the name of the sa_len field in apr_sockaddr_t to salen.
- Some platforms have a macro named sa_len.
- [Tony Finch]
-
- *) apr_set_port(), apr_get_port(), apr_set_ipaddr(), and apr_get_ipaddr()
- now take apr_sockaddr_t as a parameter instead of apr_socket_t +
- apr_interface_e. This will allow the same routines to be used with
- datagram APIs to be added later. Note that code which calls
- apr_set_ipaddr() should probably be changed to call apr_getaddrinfo()
- for protocol independence. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) apr_create_tcp_socket() has been removed. Use apr_create_socket()
- instead. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Source was moved from the apache-2.0 repository. For all CHANGES
