-0.9.9
+0.9.31 not yet released
+
+ Upgrade notices from previous versions.
+ o On x86_64 the format of /var/run/utmp changed compared to previous
+ versions. To retain compatibility with glibc we now define
+ __WORDSIZE_COMPAT32. If you are certain that you will never use
+ glibc nor run in i386 mode on your x86_64 installation, you can
+ remove this definition from wordsize.h.
+ Otherwise you have to delete /var/run/utmp on x86_64 hosts when
+ upgrading to 0.9.31
+ o The SHARED_LIB_LOADER_PREFIX was renamed to a single path
+ component called MULTILIB_DIR and defaults to 'lib'.
+
+0.9.27 12 January 2005
+
+ This has been a long time in the making... Release highlights:
+ o New stdio implementation
+ o New optimized string functions
+ o Major improvements to the shared lib loader
+ o Shared libraries work properly on powerpc
+ o Debugging works on mips
+ o New architectures: frv, nios, nios2, bfin
+ o Linux 2.6.x kernel support
+ o Lots and lots of bug fixes
+
+ This release is NOT binary compatible with uClibc 0.9.26 or any earlier
+ release, so be prepared to recompile your software if you are still using
+ an old version of uClibc.

+
+
+0.9.26 3 January 2004
+
+ This simply adds a fix for a pthread bug that was noticed a few hours
+ after the previous release. Otherwise identical to 0.9.25.
+
+ This release remains binary compatible with uClibc 0.9.21-25 as long as
+ you take care to avoid any configuraton changes that will break things.
+ We _were_ planning to break binary compatibilty in this release, but
+ decided to hold those changes so we could push out a bugfix release.
+
+ We _will_ break binary compatibilty in the upcoming 0.9.27 release to
+ implement a few things we have been postponing. That should hopefully be
+ the last ABI change before we freeze the ABI for the upcoming 1.0.x
+ stable uClibc series.
+
+Release highlights:
+ o A trivial fix for a pthread bug
+ o Nothing else

+
+Release highlights:
+ o Fixed a ton of problems found using the LTP and NIST test suites.
+ The few remaining test failures are obscure corner cases, such as
+ a few functions that fail (correctly) with incorrect errno values.
+ o Fixed a longstanding pthreads bug -- amoung other things, you no
+ longer need to explicitly add -lpthread for perl to work.
+ o Added some sh optimized string functions
+ o Added sh64 shared library support
+ o The default malloc implementation has been replaced, and will
+ now actually free memory when told to do so.
+ o Both popen() and exec*() now behave themselves per SuSv3
+ o Better 2.6.x kernel header support
+ o Added support for Position Independent Executables (PIE) on x86
+ o Lots of other minor cleanups

+
+0.9.23 13 November 2003
+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+
+Note:
+ This release is binary compatible with uClibc 0.9.21 and 0.9.22 as
+ long as you take care to avoid any configuraton changes that will
+ break things. Enabling or disabling things like soft-float,
+ locale, wide wchar support, or changing cpu type are all good
+ examples of things that will break binary compatibility.
+
+Release highlights:
+ o Fixed several silly configuration problems that were
+ present in the 0.9.22 release.
+ o Fixed compilation problem with soft-float support on
+ several architectures.
+ o Lots of cleanup work on the powepc shared lib loader
+ thanks to Joakim Tjernlund.
+ o Updated the debian packaging for use in a standalone uClibc
+ system, rather than being a subordinate library under a
+ glibc based system.

+
+0.9.22 8 November 2003
+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+
+Note:
+ This release is binary compatible with the 0.9.21 release
+ if you take care to avoid any configuraton changes that
+ might break things for you (i.e. enabling or disabling things
+ like soft-float, locale, wide wchar support, or changing cpu
+ type are all good examples of binary incompatible config options).
+
+Release highlights:
+ o Added e1, microblaze, and sh64 architectures.
+ o Much improved soft-float support
+ o Rewrote the passwd and group handing functions
+ and implemented all SuSv3 required reentrant
+ versions.
+ o Reworked and updated the Config system. You now
+ get to select your target architecture with the
+ config system.
+ o Fixed pthreads for mmuless m68k systems
+ o Added some x86 optimized string functions.
+ o Lots and lots of bugs fixed.

+
+0.9.21 9 September 2003
+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+
+Note:
+ This release is not binary compatible with earlier releases.
+ Sorry about that. We have never promised to provide binary
+ compatibility until we hit version 1.0, and even then, if
+ you change your configuration.
+
+Release highlights:
+ o uClibc now has full ANSI/ISO C99 locale support (except
+ for wcsftime() and collating items in regex).
+ o Added support for using pre-generated locale data, making
+ it easy for mere mortals to use uClibc w/locale support.
+ o Lots of new tuning options added to trade size
+ for features, allowing for smaller static binaries.
+ o The "dlopen()'ing libraries that depend on libraries"
+ problem was fixed.
+ o A new scanf implementation. Well tested, but
+ brand new so watch for obscure bugs...
+ o Reworked and updated the Config system, adding several
+ nice new features which we now use.
+ o Lots and lots of sundry bug fixes and cleanups.

+0.9.20 30 June 2003
+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+
+Note:
+ This release remains binary compatible with 0.9.18 and 0.9.19.
+
+
+Release highlights:
+ o Some ldd, profiling, and gcc wrapper updates
+ o Updated to support and compile with gcc 3.3
+ o Several needed mips updates
+ o Building under cygwin should now work...
+ o Prevent non-PIC code getting into PIC libs
+ o Added mmap64 support
+ o mmu-less systems now get a 16k default thread stack size
+ which is much more sane than the old 2 MB default...
+ o Implemented syscall() for powerpc
+ o Optionally struct tm extension support
+ o Lots of other sundry little fixes and cleanups.
+ o Prevent buffer overflows in the passwd and group functions.

+0.9.19 3 March 2003
+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+
+Note:
+ This release remains binary compatible with 0.9.18 (except
+ for mips, but then mips was unusable in stock 0.9.18 anyways).
+
+
+Release highlights:
+ Stefan Allius
+ o Some Makefile and warning fixes
+ David Airlie
+ o Fixed gcc wrapper handling of ctor/dtor stuff when used in
+ with and w/o the nostdinc and nostdlib options
+ Erik Andersen
+ o Fixed a number of system call kernel type/user type translation
+ problems that scrambled a handful of system calls.
+ o Fixup powerpc syscalls to eliminate warnings with gcc-3.2
+ o Fixed several ioctl special cases for powerpc
+ o Checked in forgotten mips kernel_types.h changes
+ o Fixed mips shared library loader bug that caused segfaults
+ o Major update to the pthreads library. Should improve performance.
+ o Fixed uClibc's shared library loader so we can properly debug
+ applications using pthreads (must use gdb 5.3 or newer which
+ was compiled using uClibc).
+ o Made uClibc's ldd act just the glibc provided one (i.e. relying
+ on the shared lib loader to do the work) when it is possible to
+ doi so, and only rummage about the ELF headers when we have no
+ other choice (such as when using 'ldd' on cross compiled stuff).
+ Miles Bader
+ o header file updates for v850 architecture
+ o Fixed v850 crt0.S __uClibc_main argument stack space
+ Jeffrey Damick
+ o Fixed res_init() so it properly reloads /etc/resolv.conf
+ Vadim Lebedev
+ o Fixed ARM setjmp when floating point was disabled
+ David McCullough
+ o Removed debug (-g) when building crti.o and crtn.o, as
+ debug would mess up the build for SH4 and probably others.
+ o Fixed SH setjmp when floating point was enabled
+

+
+0.9.18 12 February 2003
+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+
+Note:
+
+ Once again, this release is _NOT_ binary compatible with earlier
+ releases. I _think this will be the last time (with the possible
+ exception of some future changes to our locale support...)
+
+
+Release highlights:
+ Stefan Allius
+ o fixed a compile problem when large file support was disabled
+ o fixed dlib_pic.o to compile with proper flags
+ o fixed a shared lib loader compile warning
+ o Made adding libgcc functions to uClibc optional

+ o Fixed mismatches between the size of uClibc's struct dirent
+ and struct dirent64 so that when _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 we
+ do not lose part of the filename
+ o Fixed getdents64.c so the build will not break when compiling
+ vs a 2.0.x Linux kernel when UCLIBC_HAS_LFS is enabled
+ o Create stub crti.o and crtn.o files when UCLIBC_CTOR_DTOR is disabled
+ o Fixed licenses for a few files that erroneously were listed as GPL
+ but were really LGPL after discussing with authors
+ o sigaction for x86 had an extra and unwanted sigaction syscall
+ o Fixed debugging of arm binaries by adding a .note.ABI-tag section
+ Miles Bader
+ o header file updates for v850 architecture
+ o Fixed v850 clone syscall
+ Christian Krause
+ o Fixed pthread_cond_timedwait to properly uses rt singals
+ when available
+ Christophe Massiot
+ o Added mips _flush_cache syscall
+ David McCullough
+ o Added m68k brk syscall
+ Marshall M. Midden
+ o Fixed pipe implementation for mips

+0.9.17 25 January 2003
+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+
+Note:
+
+ I have always reserved the right to make binary incompatible changes as
+ needed prior to the "1.0" release. This release is a good example of
+ that. A few bugs turned up that needed to be fixed and the only good way
+ to fix them was to change some fundamental data structure sizes. So I did
+ just that. As a result, this release is _NOT_ binary compatible with
+ earlier releases -- you will need to recompile your applications.
+
+
+Release highlights:
+ Stefan Allius
+ o fixed a number of shared library loader bugs
+ o setjmp, longjmp, clone, and vfork cleanups for the SH architecture
+ o Don't build the config system with ncurses unless asked to
+ Tobias Anderberg
+ o cris architecture updates
+ Erik Andersen
+ o Changed 'struct stat' and 'struct stat64' so they use types that
+ are consistant with use elsewhere in the library. Without this,
+ subtle bugs would occur due to comparing signed and unsigned
+ types (for example, GNU tar wouldn't work)
+ o Fixed dlopen so it works with staticly linked apps
+ o Fixed sigaction on arm architecture so sa_restorer works properly
+ o Fixed sigaction on x86 architecture for (fixed debugging threads)
+ o Fixed a wide char related segfault in the regular expression code
+ o Powerpc pread and pwrite are now implemented correctly
+ o Powerpc syscall mechanism re-implemented
+ o Sparc architecture and syscall mechanism fixed up so things compile
+ o usershell reimplemented
+ o Fixed global destructors for staticly linked applications
+ o Added dynamic atexit support (needed for full C++ ctor/dtor support)
+ o The ldd utility now acts more like the GNU utility
+ o Added a stub libnsl library to make stupid configure scripts bahave
+ o Always build crt1.o as well as crt0.o to minimize the need to mess
+ with the compiler
+ o Rewrote powerpc crt0.S to properly handle ctors/dtors
+ o Removed unimplemented and legacy stuff from our header files to
+ make configure behave better
+ o Made the lib loader also support libs in /usr/X11R6/lib by default
+ o Config system updates
+ o networking function updates
+ o Large file support updates
+ o Lots of other little bug fixes and cleanups
+ Nick Fedchik
+ o Support ether_aton
+ Nathan Field
+ o Fixed pthread_mutex_lock and pthread_mutex_unlock so they
+ actually work as advertised on mips
+ o Fixed several nasty pthread bugs fixing debugging
+ Brett Hunt
+ o Fixed potential segfaults during 'make menuconfig'
+ Jay Kulpinski
+ o Fixed a subtle problem in the DNS resolver that prevented
+ uncompressed DNS lookup responses from working
+ David McCullough
+ o Fixed pclose error handling
+ David Meggy
+ o fixed the problem where arm binaries would crash on start
+ that Erik stupidly caused right before the last release.
+ Manuel Novoa III
+ o Major locale support update!
+ o Allow people to use pregenerated locale data instead of generating
+ approx 40Mb of glibc locales to get the 300+ locales currently
+ supported.
+ o locale dependent collation support
+ o Fixed locale support tools to work when cross-compiling
+ o Added the *wprintf functions
+ o Added the wcsto{inttype} functions
+ o Added iconv() and a mini iconv utility
+ o Added hsearch and hsearch_r
+ o Fixed a silly bug allowing wprintf %s to work correctly.
+ o Fixed fdopen when used with "a" (append).
+ o Fixed stdio file position handing to be sure fell() always
+ gives correct results
+ Luc Van Oostenryck
+ o Fixed a buffer overflow in getlogin_r
+ Yoshinori Sato
+ o Hitachi h8300 architecture update
+ Ronald Wahl
+ o Powerpc shared library relocation fixes

+
+
+
+0.9.15 27 August 2002
+
+This is a minor bugfix release.
+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+Release highlights:
+ o Eliminated the HAS_LONG_LONG option. gcc always supports
+ long long, and the option never excluded all long long anyways.
+ o ctype.h no longer allows multiple argument evaluation in
+ compliance with ANSI/ISO C99
+ o Obscure printf fixes -- one involving %o and one involving %f.
+ o Bugfixes for locking and reentrance in password/group functions

+ translation and fixing several bugs.
+ o Directly use kernel struct stat -- no more translating
+ o More superH (sh) architecture merging from Stefan Allius
+ o Errno values and strerror are now correct on alpha, sparc, and mips
+ o Fixed an obscure bug with fclose when custom streams are enabled.
+ o Lots of other little bug fixes and cleanups

+
+
+
+0.9.14 12 August 2002

+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+Release highlights:
+ o Fix a compile error when RPC and Pthread support
+ were both enabled.
+ o Eliminate duplicate define warnings in wstring.c.
+ o Fix potentially broken preprocessor comparisons.
+ o Erik was an idiot and broke thread locking in exit(),
+ atexit() and friends. Fix that.
+ o Fix the gcc wrapper to use crtbeginS.o and crtendS.o when
+ compiling PIC code (crtbegin.o and crtend.o) otherwise.
+
+ -Erik
+
+
+
+
+0.9.13 9 August 2002
+
+Security Fixes
+ o There was an off-by-one buffer overflow in the group
+ handling code, fix thanks to Joseph Chiu.
+ o There was an integer overflow bug in calloc, per
+ http://online.securityfocus.com/bid/5398
+ o There was an integer overflow bug in the xdr_array
+ RPC code, per http://online.securityfocus.com/bid/5356
+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+Release highlights:
+ o Add full shared library support for Hitachi SuperH (sh)
+ thanks to Stefan Allius and Edie C. Dost
+ o Lots of reentrance cleanups (we should now be fully
+ reentrant when compiled with pthread support).
+ o Miles Bader implemented a new mmap based malloc which is much
+ smarter than the old "malloc-simple", and actually works, unlike
+ the old "malloc". This is now the default for mmu-less systems
+ and should greatly help reduce memory fragmentation and wastage.
+ o Reworked syscall handling for i386 and ARM, smaller and cleaner.
+ o Support for the syscall() function on i386 and ARM
+ o The uClibc g++ wrapper now automagically adds the proper include
+ search path and and libraries.
+ o Lots of shared library loader updates
+ o dlopen'd shred libraries not properly run destructors
+ when ctor/dtor support is enabled
+ o pread/pwrite/pread64/pwrite64 now all work as expected
+ o Lots and lots of other bug fixes and cleanups.
+
+ -Erik
+
+
+
+
+0.9.12 20 June 2002
+
+See Changelog.full for the complete list of who did what.
+Release highlights:
+ o Add full shared library support for mips (big and little
+ endian), thanks to a lot of hard work from Steven J. Hill
+ o i960 architecture support, thanks to Martin Proulx
+ o An initial alpha port (works, but needs some cleanup)
+ o Fixes shared library support for powerpc
+ o Fixes for mmu-less systems
+ o Much improved thread locking and reentrance.
+ o More gcc wrapper updates. XFree86 really does link
+ this time around. It still didn't last time.
+ o Libcrypt now passes conformance tests
+ o Nearly complete locale supporti thanks to a lot
+ of hard work by Manuel Novoa III. This stuff is
+ _way_ smaller than glibc's
+ o Completely new time handling functions also by Manuel
+ o Lots of other bug fixes and cleanups.

+
+Erik Andersen:
+0.9.11 10 April 2002
+
+Release highlights:
+ o Lots of bug fixes
+ o Much better large file support

+ deadlocks on s*printf calls when threading was enabled.
+
+Erik Andersen:
+ o Added a generic implementation of truncate64.c and ftruncate64.c
+ o Added missing creat64, glob64, mkstemp64, getrlimit64, setrlimit64
+ o Removed internal erroneous use of __USE_FILE_OFFSET64
+ o Made libpthread compile on sparc and powerpc
+ o Made libpthread soname and symlinks match the other libraries.
+ o Added finite() to the C89 math lib, since some math functions use it.
+ o Added missing function pointer to error.c (some apps wanted it)
+ o Fixed initfini build for arches where gcc tries to be sneaky
+ o Fixed m68k/bits/setjmp.h which I has broken in the last release.
+ o Fixed a buffer overflow in the dynamic library loader

+ the include files
+David Schleef:
+ o Made powerpc assembly code PIC-compatible
+ o Removed powerpc R_PPC_REL24 handling, since it was deceptively useless.
+John Traill:
+ o Several types on powerpc, such as dev_t, are different than on other
+ architectures. John spotted this, which fixed a _ton_ of problems since
+ anything calling stat() was previously broken.
+Jim Treadway:
+ o Eliminated use of alarm() from the DNS resolver by converting
+ it to use select instead (much cleaner).
+
+
+

+0.9.9 February 4, 2002
Erik Andersen:
- o Reworked all signal handling such that it now passes
- POSIX conformance tests.
+ o A bunch of doc updates. Major update to the working
+ apps list.
+ o Added a configurator script (extra/Configs/uClibc_config_fix.pl)
+ which can simplify configuring uClibc.
+ o Fixed setjmp/longjmp on x86,arm,powerpc,mips,and sparc.
+ Hitting ^C in ash kills client apps now, not ash.
+ o Reworked signal handling code so it now passes POSIX
+ conformance tests.
o Fixed sleep and usleep to work correctly when
interrupted by signals.
o Made getopt behave the same when staticly linking
o Reworked the shared library linking process to be more
flexible so that gcc and ld can more easily be built to
target uClibc library.
- o Better error checking in the Makefiles
+ o Better error checking in the Makefiles. Be more pedantic
+ about tar, chmod, etc to avoid system dependent failures.
o We can now autodetect the target architecture
o Hide references to wchar_t so GNU autoconf
configure scripts won't get confused and try to
enable wide char support.
o Fixed stdio.h so apps can use varargs.h if they want to.
- o Added brk/sbrk support for ARM
+ o Added brk/sbrk support for ARM, powerpc, mips, and sparc
