This + fixes build issues on Mac OS X. Thanks to Yann E. Morni for this + fix. #9 + * Build system: The "--with[out]-ncurses" option has been added and + allows to enforce/disable the building of "noping". Thanks to Thomas + Deutschmann for the patch. #15 + * Build system: Compatibility code to work with pkg-config < 0.27 has + been added. #22 + * liboping: Creation of ICMPv4 packets has been fixed: due to an + incorrect sizeof() the payload may have been prefixed by 20 zero + bytes, resulting in larger packets than desired. Thanks to Kyle Zhou + for reporting and fixing this. #10 + * liboping: The number of file descriptors used has been reduced to at + most two (from one per host). This and a few other optimizations + significantly improve performance. Thanks to Luke Heberling for the + patch. #11 + * oping, noping: Handling of the "-O" command line flag has been + fixed. + * oping, noping: The "-b" option has been added and enables a bell + whenever an echo reply is received. Thanks to Antoine Beaupré for + the patch. #6 + * noping: The background color has been changed to use the terminal + default. Thanks to @middleO. #18 + * noping: The ability to add hosts after noping has started (the "a" + key) has been added. Thanks to Hamish Coleman for the patch. #20, + #23 + +2016-06-27, Version 1.9.0: + * liboping: The new "PING_OPT_MARK" option allows to mark packets, + which can be used for filtering and routing such packets on Linux. + * oping, noping: The new "-m" command line option allows to set a mark + on packets sent by the tool. + * oping, noping: The new "-O" command line option allows to write + measurements to an CSV file. + * oping, noping: The new "-w" command line option allows to specify + the timeout after which a packet/reply is considered "dropped". + +2014-11-20, Version 1.8.0: + * oping, noping: Average and standard deviation have been removed from + the status output, which show median and 95th percentile instead. + The percentile can be chosen with the "-P" option. + * noping: The additional graph types "histogram" and "boxplot" have + been added, which can be selected with the "-g" option. + +2014-09-25, Version 1.7.0: + * oping, noping: The new -Z option allows the exit status to indicate + the number of failing hosts. Thanks to Barak Pearlmutter for the + patch. + * noping: The ability to print a "prettyping" style graph has been + added. Thanks to Antoine Beaupré for his work! + * src/liboping.c: Build issues on Solaris have been fixed. Thanks + Scott Severtson for the fix! + * Build system: Creation and installation of a pkg-config file has + been added. Thanks to Barak Pearlmutter for the patch. + +2012-01-31, Version 1.6.2: + * Build system: Setting capabilities and the set-UID bit has been made + more fault-tolerant, so that it will work with Debian's fakeroot(1) + utility. + * src/liboping.c: Fixed a compiler warning about an non-static format + string. Thanks to Brian Edwards for pointing this out. + * src/liboping.c: Fixed compilation under Mac OS X and Solaris. Thanks + to Clayton O'Neill for his patch. + +2011-03-06, Version 1.6.1: + * Build system: If "make install" is executed as root, the CAP_NET_RAW + capability is added to the binary (on Linux) or the set-UID bit is + set (other Unixes). + * src/oping.c: Fix compiler warnings which may abort the build. Thanks + to James Bromberger for reporting the problem. + * noping: Compatibility with ncurses 5.8 has been fixed. Thanks to + Gaetan Bisson for his patch. + +2011-01-26, Version 1.6.0: + * liboping: Improve timing of received network packets using + SO_TIMESTAMP if available. Thanks to Bruno Prémont for his patch. + +2010-11-17, Version 1.5.1: + * oping, noping: Alias for the “Voice Admit” DSCP has been added. + * src/oping.c, src/liboping.c: Compiler warnings / errors have been + fixed. 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
