1.10 (2014-11-27)
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Major bug fix release.
|
|
|
|
* Project now relies on static code analysis from Coverity, so this
|
|
release contains many serious bug fixes.
|
|
* Fix serious file descriptor and memory leaks in the following
|
|
functions. In particular the leaks in `run_interactive()` are very
|
|
serious since that function is called every time a service is
|
|
started and/or restarted! For details, see the GIT log:
|
|
* `helpers.c:run()`
|
|
* `helpers.c:run_interactive()`
|
|
* `helpers.c:set_hostname()`
|
|
* `helpers.c:procname_kill()`
|
|
* `svc.c:svc_start()`: Fix swapped arguments to dup2() and add
|
|
close(fd) to prevent descriptor leak.
|
|
* `svc.c:svc_start()`: Fix out of bounds write to local stack
|
|
variable, wrote off-by-one outside array.
|
|
* Several added checks for return values to `mknod()`, `mkdir()`,
|
|
`remove()`, etc.
|
|
* Convert to use Markdown for README, NEWS and TODO.
|
|
* Serious update to README and slight pruning of finished TODO items.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.9 (2014-04-21)
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
* Bug fixes, code cleanup
|
|
* Add support for an include directive to `.conf` files
|
|
* Fallback to `/bin/sh` if user forgets tty setting
|
|
* Handle `SIGHUP` from service callback properly when switching runlevel
|
|
* Initial support for restarting lost services during `norespwan`
|
|
* Misc. major (memleak) and minor fixes and additions to `libite/lite.h`
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.8 (2013-06-07)
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
* Support for runlevels, with a bootstrap runlevel 'S'
|
|
* Support for saving previous and current runlevel to UTMP
|
|
* Support for new `finit.conf` commands: run, task, and runlevel
|
|
* Support for tty and console commands in `finit.conf`, like services
|
|
but for launching multiple getty logins
|
|
* New tty plugin to monitor TTYs coming and going, like USB TTYs
|
|
* Bugfixes to libite
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.7 (2012-10-08)
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
* Show `__FILE__` in `_d()` debug messages, useful for plugins with
|
|
similarily named callbacks. Also, only in debug mode anyway
|
|
* Make sure to cleanup recorded PID when a service is lost. Required
|
|
by service plugins for their callbacks to work.
|
|
* Bugfix: Do not `free()` static string in `finit.conf` parser
|
|
* Only clear screen when in verbose mode. Maybe this should be removed
|
|
altogether?
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.6 (2012-10-06)
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
* Skip . and .. in plugin loader and display error on failed plugins
|
|
* Support for overriding `/etc/finit.d` with `runparts DIR` in
|
|
`finit.conf`
|
|
* Revoke support for starting services not starting with a slash.
|
|
* Prevent endless restart of non-existing services in `finit.conf`
|
|
* Support for sysvinit style startstop scripts in `/etc/finit.d`
|
|
* Minor fix to alsa-utils plugin to silence on non-existing cards
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.5 (2012-10-03)
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
* Use bootmisc plugin to setup standard FHS 2.3 structure in `/var`
|
|
* Added `FLOG_WARN()` syslog macro, for plugins
|
|
* Add plugin dependency resolver. Checks `plugin_t` for `.depends`
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.4 (2012-10-02)
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
* Fix I/O plugin watcher and load plugins earlier for a new hook
|
|
* Start refactoring helpers.c into a libite.so (-lite). This means
|
|
other user space applications/daemons can make use of the neat toolbox
|
|
available in finit
|
|
* Use short-form -s/-w -u to work with BusyBox hwclock as well
|
|
* Use RTLD_GLOBAL flag to tell dynamic loader to load dependent .so
|
|
files as well. Lets other plugins use global symbols.
|
|
* Greatly simplify svc hook for external plugins and cleanup plugin API.
|
|
* And more ... see the GIT log for more details.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
* Add support for installing required headers in system include dir
|
|
* Better support for distributions and packagers with install-exec,
|
|
install-data, and install-dev targets in Makefile. Useful if you want
|
|
to call targets with different `$DESTDIR`!
|
|
* Makefile fixes for installation, paths encoded wrong
|
|
* Strip binaries + .so files, support for `$(CROSS)` toolchain strip
|
