704:
705: V0.80 Some compilation fixes for BSD by Jeremy Chadwick
706: <freebsd@jdc.parodius.com>
707:
708: V0.78/0.79 some compilation fixes for BSD&others by
709: Thomas Klausner <wiz@NetBSD.org>
710:
711: V0.76 display load sharing hosts in --raw output.
712: added about button in gui.
713:
714: v0.75 Feelgood patch to move sprintf to snprintf. People might think
715: that sprintf might cause a buffer overflow. Now it's clean.
716: cut-paste patches: you can now copy an intermediate host to the
717: clipboard.
718:
719: v0.74 Martin Pels' patch to allow UDP probes.
720: KES reported a build problem. Turns out I need to install gtk-1.2
1.1.1.3 misho 721: on my development system, otherwise my release script causes the
1.1 misho 722: build to break.
723: changed some docs to advertise the new mailing list.
724: added documentation for the Mac OS X compilation problem.
725: added -Wno-pointer-sign to the compiler options.
726: Nico Lichtmaier's cleanup-gtk patch. (now mtr uses a more modern
727: dialect of gtk).
728:
1.1.1.3 misho 729: v0.73 Some security patches. Although MTR drops privileges as soon
1.1 misho 730: as possible after opening the sockets, it still had some
731: sprintf calls, which have now been converted into snprintf.
732:
733: v0.72 Fix signed/unsigned bug in IPV6 part
734: improved random packet size behaviour. --REW
735:
736: v0.71 Some IPV6 fixes, introduce packet size cmdline option.
737: (was already present as a cmdline argument)
738:
739: v0.70 Antinio submitted a cumulative patch containing some
740: nice improvements. He also submitted an automake patch
741: that causes mtr to no longer compile on my system. I
742: refuse to have mtr "in the dark" that I can't test-compile
743: the dist.
744:
745: v0.69 make distclean should now also remove "rej" files.
746: Antonio Querubin: update getopt.h . More cleanups using
747: new infrastructure.
748: rcw: Fixed IPV6 support: When compiled in an IPV6-supporting
749: environment, but when the kernel doesn't support IPV6, mtr would
750: fail to start.
751:
752: v0.68 included some old patches.
753: included patch from Antonio Querubin for better IPV6 support
754: restructured some more whitespace.
755: added mtr.h where "global" things should go. Not finished
756: moving things around, but now that the infrastructure is there,
757: it should be easy.
758:
759: v0.67 Bad keyboarding by REW caused this one out the door. Sorry.
760: No changes.
761:
762: v0.66 Through the Debian bugtracking system a bug report and
1.1.1.3 misho 763: fix was sent my way, that deals with stupid optimization
1.1 misho 764: trying to save some 768 bytes of memory, sacrificing "it
765: works" on a different architecture... (default char signedness)
766:
767: v0.65 Dancer Vesperman noted that mtr no longer traces past
768: a section of non-responding hosts. Apparently I added
769: a line in net.c that didn't make sense in mtr-0.56. I
770: can't find the reason for adding that line, so someone
771: who thinks (s)he needs it, should holler.
772:
773: v0.64 Philippe suggests to do the time_t thingy before socket.h.
774: Apparently, MAC OS X doesn't compile socket.h otherwise.
775:
776: v0.63 Suggestion by RCW: Add -lm at line 70 of Configure.in.
777: On my system no ill effects ensued, so this version released
1.1.1.3 misho 778: so that he can test if it still works on his system.
1.1 misho 779:
780: Let me add that it's stupid that I have to specify that this
781: this program now requires Automake version 1.5 to build, where
782: Automake was intended to make software independent of different
783: versions of build software!
784:
785: For those concerned about the above statement: If you're just
786: trying to compile and use MTR, there is no need for automake.
787: Just when you're messing with the configure and build system of
788: mtr is automake a tool you need.
789:
790: v0.62 Apparently someone changed gethostbyname into gethostbyname2
791: in mtr.c in an attempt to add IPV6 support. For systems without
792: ipv6 support, the old gethostbyname should be used! Linux
793: has the call even if you don't enable IPV6. Thanks Gary (rsub)
794:
795: v0.61 Attempt to get/print the local IP address. Now shows as
796: 0.0.0.0 :-( Hints and tips appreciated! -- REW
797: Lots of blank space reformatting.
798: moved the interface address setting to net.c (where it
799: belongs).
800:
801: v0.60 John Thacker submitted a surprisingly simple patch to
802: enable linking against GTK2. (up to 2.4.0)
803:
804: v0.59 Josh Martin suggested to add some bounds checking to
805: the dynamic field code. This caused me to delve in, and
806: rewrite some things. Now 50 lines of code less, but cleaner
807: code. :-)
808:
1.1.1.3 misho 809: v0.58 I don't remember. Forgot to update this. :-( Check the
1.1 misho 810: patch.
811:
812: v0.57 Lots of whitespace cleanups. And a DNS fix: Don't do DNS
813: lookups in raw mode with -n specified.
814:
815: v0.56 Fixed compile warnings. Now compiles with -Wall. If your
816: compiler finds things mine didn't feel free to shout.
817:
818: v0.55 Cleanup patch. I'm going to do some maintenance on MTR,
819: but I want to be able to say: Can you see which version
820: fixed/broke things for you, so you're going to see a
821: bunch of new releases soon.
822:
823: v0.54 Added "scrolling" patch from Roland Illig, to allow
824: scrolling in text mode. I've always wanted this......
825:
826: v0.53 Added fix for raw mode.
827:
828: v0.52 Mostly cleanups from Brett Johnson on MacOS X. It may
829: clean up some compilation problems on MacOS X as well.
830:
831: v0.51 Fixed the bug introduced by the previous select loop fix...
832: Thanks Evgeniy
833:
834: v0.50 Make "interface address" option work.
835: Changes to "select" loop to allow window resizes (select
836: interruption) to work. Thanks Mike!
837:
838: v0.49 Fix compilation problems on several platforms.
839:
840: v0.48 Draw names in red (GTK) or bold (Curses) if host doesn't
841: respond.
842:
1.1.1.3 misho 843: v0.47 Fixed a (believed-) non-exploitable buffer overflow.
1.1 misho 844: Thanks Damian.
845:
846: v0.46 Included patch to be able to specify outgoing interface
847: address.
848:
849: v0.45 People are pressuring me to release new versions with their
850: changes. That's fine. Now this version just adds dynamic
851: switching between numeric / dns names, and some minor
852: stuff I forgot. This release serves as a code-sync-release.
853: new version with even more new stuff in about two weeks!
1.1.1.3 misho 854: I'm afraid I don't know how to fix the MacOS-X compilation
1.1 misho 855: problems in the source. Help wanted...
856:
857: v0.44 David Stone adds the "last" column to the gtk version.
858:
859: v0.43 Compile fixes.
860:
861: v0.41 Added afr's patch to allow disabling of gtk without Robn's hack.
862: Made report mode report the newly added extra resolution.
863:
864: v0.40 Fixed some problems with HPUX and SunOS.
865: Included Olav Kvittem's patch to do packetsize option.
866: Made the timekeeping in micro seconds.
867:
868: v0.39 Forgot the parentheses around the previous fix... :-(
869:
870: v0.38 fixed some dubious code in dns.c (noted by someone's lint)
871:
872: v0.37 Added Bill Bogstad's "show the local host & time" patch.
873: Added R. Sparks' show-last-ping patch, submitted by Philip Kizer.
874:
875: v0.36 Added Craigs change-the-interval-on-the-fly patch.
876: Added Moritz Barsnick's "do something sensible if host not found"
877: patch.
878: Some cleanup of both Craigs and Moritz' patches.
879:
880: v0.35 Added Craig Milo Rogers pause/resume for GTK patch.
881: Added Craig Milo Rogers cleanup of "reset". (restart at the beginning)
882: Net_open used to send a first packet. After that the display-driver
883: got a chance to distort the timing by taking its time to
884: initialize.
885:
886: v0.34 Added Matt's nifty "use the icmp unreachables to do the timing" patch.
887: Added Steve Kann's pause/resume patch.
888:
889: v0.33 Fixed the Linux glibc resolver problems.
890: Fixed the off-by-one problem with -c option.
891:
892: v0.32 Fixed the FreeBSD bug detection stuff.
893:
894: v0.31 Fixed a few documentation issues. -- Matt
895: Changed the autoconf stuff to find the resolver library on
896: Solaris. -- REW
897: Cleaned up the autoconf.in file a bit. -- Matt.
898:
899: v0.30 Fixed a typo in the changelog (NEWS) entry for 0.27. :-)
900: added use of "MTR_OPTIONS" environment variable for defaults.
901:
902: v0.29 Lots of stuff.
903: Neato overview display by David Sward.
904: FreeBSD does wrong in the kernel the same that Solaris/x86 (see
905: note for 0.27 does right. It forces mtr to send bad packets....
906: Adjusted "not too much at once" algorithm. Now probing
907: continues as long as not more than 5 hosts are unknown.
908: Returning packets usually allow us to do the first sweep
909: in one go.
910:
911: v0.28 DNS lookups are now suppressed if you don't want them.
912:
913: v0.27
914: Fixed bug that showed up on Solaris/x86.
915: GTK mainloop now runs as it's supposed to.
916:
917: v0.26
918: Added "-n" flag for numeric output.
919: fixed IP numbers displaying backwards.
920: GTK mainloop now runs at 10 packets per second.
921: - That's too much if there are only 3 hosts
922: - that's too little if there are 20 hosts.
923: -> Someone tell me how to change the "ping-timeout"
924: callback time in gtk. Can't find it in the docs.
925: The default for "hostname" is now "localhost" so that
926: you can start mtr without any arguments and later
927: fill in the host you want to trace to.
928:
929: v0.25
930: Included two "raw" formats. One for separating GUI from
931: the setuid program, and one suitable for later parsing and
932: displaying. Volunteers wanted to separate the GTK
933: backend. Thanks to Bertrand Leconte for contributing
934: the format that's now called "split".
935:
936: v0.24
937: Fixed number of probes. Accidentally was counted per
938: packet sent instead of per round of packets.
939:
940: v0.23
941: Fixed Sparc alignment problem with statmalloc
942:
943: v0.22
944: Roger has take over maintenance.
945: mtr now uses an "int" to pass options to the kernel.
946: Makes things work on Solaris and *BSD I'm told.
947: mtr doesn't fire off a flurry of packets when a new
948: second comes around. Instead they are spaced evenly
949: around the whole second. This allows people with a
950: relatively slow first link to do meaningful measurements
951: of whatever is behind that.
952:
953: v0.21
954: mtr now drops root permissions after it acquires the raw
955: sockets it needs.
956: mtr should be a bit happier about building under SCO and
957: Solaris.
958: Fixed the problem with packets arriving after a reset.
959:
960: v0.20
961: The build process for mtr now uses automake.
962: Fixed a build problem for Irix.
963: Now uses non-blocking DNS code, so mtr can attempt
964: to do reverse lookup on multiple hosts at once.
965: Fewer packets are sent out each cycle, so mtr
966: doesn't hog quite so much bandwidth.
967:
968: v0.19
969: Fixed a type-o in curses.c
970:
971: v0.18
972: Fixed the network code to work properly under FreeBSD.
973: Hopefully this will fix some other operating systems too.
974: Also, fixed a build problem and the DNS hanging bug.
975:
976: v0.17
977: Fixed the configure script to always like with the math
978: library. Added an icon.
979:
980: v0.16
981: Added one #include to select.c. Some people were unable
982: to build mtr without this line.
983:
984: v0.15
985: Both the build process and the networking code have
986: been cleaned up and reorganized. mtr now builds
987: cleanly with GTK+ 0.99.8.
988:
989: --- Below is the contents of the old "Changelog file" that annoyed some
990: people as it didn't contain any recent changes/news.

1000: + Commented out the test for res_init in configure.in;
1001: it does not work for GLIBC2 systems (e.g., RedHat 7+).
1002: + Fixed the subordinate CHECK_LIBS on the test for res_mkquery,
1003: so that they test for res_mkquery, not res_init.
