Thanks to James Bromberger for reporting one of them. + +2010-10-27, Version 1.5.0: + * src/liboping.c: The possibility to set the QoS byte of outgoing IPv4 + and IPv6 packets and read the byte from incoming packets has been + added. Thanks to Vladimir Melnikov for his patch. + * oping, noping: Add the ability to configure the QoS field on the + command line. If either the QoS field of outgoing or incoming + packets is non-standard, the QoS byte of incoming packets will be + printed. + * liboping: The library has been relicensed under the LGPL 2.1. + +2010-06-13, Version 1.4.0: + * noping: A new front-end to liboping, using the ncurses library, has + been added. The new command line application displays ping + statistics online and highlights aberrant round-trip times. + +2009-12-20, Version 1.3.4: + * src/liboping.c: When one file descriptor was in an error state, the + select(2) loop would run indefinitely. Error handling has been + improved so the loop ends gracefully now in this case. + * src/liboping.c: Drop privileges before reading files if supported by + the system. This way files are opened using the user's original + privileges when using the “-f” option. + * Net::Oping: An off-by-one error has been fixed in the Perl bindings. + Thanks to Fredrik Soderblom for his patch. + +2009-09-29, Version 1.3.3: + * oping: Disable the “-f” option if the real and effective user IDs + don't match. If that is the case the program is probably running + SetUID and should not read foreign files. Unfortunately, dropping + privileges before reading the file is not possible, because they are + required for opening raw sockets. + + Reading from STDIN using “-f -” is still possible. + + Thanks to Steve Kemp for reporting this issue as Debian bug #548684. + +2009-07-27, Version 1.3.2: + * src/oping.h: Remove `HAVE_*_H' macros for system headers. Those + macros should not be used in system wide installed header files. + Thanks to Sebastian for fixing this. + +2009-07-20, Version 1.3.1 + * src/liboping.c: Fix too eager argument validation that prevented the + library to work as documented. Thanks to Sebastian for catching this + bug. + +2009-07-18, Version 1.3.0 + * oping: Documentation and messages have been improved. + * oping: Support for the `-D' command line option has been added. + Using this new option, the outgoing network device can be set. + Thanks to Sebastian Harl for the patch. + * src/liboping.c: The value of the `received TTL' information after + missing packets has been corrected. + * src/liboping.c: A bug when matching received packets to configured + hosts has been fixed. This regression was introduced after 1.0, we + believe. Thanks to Sebastian Harl for noticing and fixing this bug. + * src/liboping.c: Support for the `PING_OPT_DEVICE' option has been + added. This option can be used to set the outgoing network device. + Thanks to Sebastian for his patch. + +2009-07-15, Version 1.2.0 + * `oping': Implement the `-f' command line option to read hostnames + from a file (or STDIN). + * src/liboping.c: No longer export `sstrerror'. + +2009-04-05, Version 1.1.2 + * liboping.c: A NULL-pointer dereference has been fixed in the IPv4 + code. This led to a segmentation fault when an ICMPv4 paket could + not be associated with any host. This usually happened when one or + more hosts were unreachable for some time. Thanks to Tomasz Pala for + discovering the problem and finding a way to reproduce it. + +2009-03-23, Version 1.1.1 + * liboping.c: Use libxnet when available. The `normal' version of + `recvmsg' does not provide the `auxiliary data' on some or all + versions of Solaris. + +2009-03-15, Version 1.1.0 + * liboping.c: Eliminate the use of `strerror' and use `strerror_r' + instead, removing the (hopefully) last thread-unsafe function. + * liboping.c: Provide the TTL of received IP packets. + * oping.c: Allow setting of the TTL using the `-t' command line + option. + +2009-02-17, Version 1.0.0 + * oping.h: Provide the OPING_VERSION to easily determine the library's + version at compile time. + * liboping.c: Fixed an off-by-one error in `ping_iterator_get_info': + When determining the buffer size to hold the hostname, the function + would return one byte too little. + * liboping.c: Fix an incorrect assertion in `ping_timeval_add'. Thanks + to Alex Brooks for reporting the issue. + * liboping.c: Make sure `EAI_SYSTEM' is defined at compile time. + Although specified by POSIX, Cygwin apparently doesn't have it. + * liboping.c: Add compatibility code for AIX. Thanks to Doug + MacEachern for the patch. + * liboping.c: Store and possibly return the host name as provided by + the user. + * liboping.c: The number of timed out packets is now counted and can + be retrieved with `ping_iterator_get_info'. + * Perl bindings: The Net::Oping Perl package has been added to + bindings/ and is built along with liboping. + +2007-03-27, Version 0.3.5 + * liboping.c: Close the filedescriptor in `ping_free', not + `ping_host_remove'. Thanks to Esteban Sanchez for submitting this + patch. + * oping.h: Include so that `size_t' is defined. Thanks + to Alex Brooks for pointing this out. + * oping.h: Use `extern "C"' when being used with C++. Thanks to Alex + Brooks for pointing this out. + +2006-12-01, Version 0.3.4 + * Fixes a bug in `ping_host_remove': Due to an incorrect hostname + checking the wrong host would be removed. + +2006-07-16, Version 0.3.3 + * `sendto(2)' now catches `EHOSTUNREACH' and `ENETUNREACH' if they're + defined. + +2006-07-13, Version 0.3.2 + * `oping' now drops root privileges as soon as possible. + * `liboping' now contains an `soname' and a version. + +2006-07-09, Version 0.3.1 + * Removed `libltdl' from the distribution since it's not used. + * More nonsense has been removed from the build system. Thanks to + Sebastian Harl for pointing it out :) + +2006-07-09, Version 0.3.0 + * The ability to set the source address from which the packets + originate has been added to the library and the oping application. + +2006-07-16, Version 0.2.3 + * `sendto(2)' now catches `EHOSTUNREACH' and `ENETUNREACH' if they're + defined. + +2006-06-05, Version 0.2.2 + * The `oping' application didn't exit if no hosts could be resolved. + This release fixes it's behavior. + +2006-06-01, Version 0.2.1 + * Fix the behavior for non GNU-Linux systems. liboping tried to + `bind(2)' to the raw-socket it uses to send ICMP packets. Apparently + (decided by majority vote ;) this is not the right thing to do. + GNU/Linux never complained about it, but works find without the bind. + Other operating systems don't work at all with the bind. + * Build fixes for non-GNU/Linux platforms: Mac OS X doesn't define + `size_t' as `unsigned int' and therefore needs casting and FreeBSD + needs to have `sys/types.h' included before `netinet/*.h' + +2006-05-29, Version 0.2.0 + * It's now possible to set the data to be send to the remote host and + to get the data received from the host. + * The `oping' binary now calculates the standard deviation. Also, it + displays the number of byes that were received and other output + changes. + * Hosts are now returned in the same order as they were added by + `ping_host_add'. This is not guaranteed, but makes `oping' prettier. + 2006-05-12, Version 0.1.1 * A bug in the library has been fixed: When the sequence got higher than 2^16 the counter in the packets wrapped around, but the
