pre-version 0.77 era (djb)

  • 19990824

    • version: daemontools 0.60, alpha.

  • 19990825

    • portability problem: some systems need sys/time.h, not just time.h, before sys/resource.h.
      • impact: couldn't compile.
      • fix: change time.h to sys/time.h in softlimit.c.
      • tnx Jos Backus and Chris Johnson.
    • portability problem: echo -n echoes literal -n under traditional System V.
      • tnx Tim Goodwin. impact: rts mismatch.
      • fix: echo | tr -d.
    • doc: removed note on man pages in conf-home. tnx Mate Wierdl.
    • ui: do pidchange() and announce() before opening supervise/ok in supervise.c.

  • 19990826

    • version: daemontools 0.61, alpha.

  • 20000304

    • internal: upgraded to latest installation system.
    • internal: switched from substdio to buffer.
    • internal: switched from execvp to pathexec.
    • internal: miscellaneous cleanups.
    • internal: sped up tai64n.
    • ui: svscan sleeps only 5 seconds.
    • ui: svscan chdirs to argv[1] if argv[1] is supplied.
    • ui: supervise does exec without waiting 1 second in child; but it waits 1 second before continuing in parent.
    • ui: svstat reports time since last supervise pid change.
    • ui: added envdir.
    • ui: incorporated setlock from serialmail.

  • 20000305

    • internal: switched to new sig library.
    • internal: switched to iopause.
    • internal: more cleanups.
    • internal: sped up multilog.
    • ui: multilog sets current to mode 644 on restart.
    • version: daemontools 0.70, beta.

  • 20000315

    • internal: new iopause.

  • 20000316

    • internal: supervise does announce() only after changing state. Avoids disk writes when supervise is idle.

  • 20010707

    • internal: added const at various places.
    • internal: miscellaneous cleanups.
    • portability problem: with recent versions of glibc, and on AIX, including sys/time.h doesn't define struct tm.
      • impact: couldn't compile.
      • fix: also include time.h.
      • tnx many people.
    • portability problem: although sleep() isn't interrupted by signals on my old BSD/OS development machine, it is interrupted by signals on all new systems.
      • impact: if a supervised process dies quickly (but not too quickly), supervise's 1-second sleep is interrupted, and the process is restarted immediately.
      • fix: new deepsleep().
    • internal: switched signal handling in supervise and multilog to blocked-by-default.
    • ui: multilog accepts ALRM to immediately rotate all cyclic logs for which current is nonempty. -tnx Peter Samuel and William E. Baxter.

  • 20010708

    • portability problem: under System V, one process can hold many exclusive locks on one file. impact: no impact on normal use, but some of the setlock regression tests fail. fix: change the tests to invoke an intermediate sh. tnx Mads Eilertsen.
    • internal: fitfiles() in multilog.
    • ui: added readproctitle.
    • ui: added svscanboot. tnx Matthias Andree.
    • ui: svscan checks for log directory instead of sticky bit. tnx many people.

  • 20010709

    • ui: added pgrphack.

  • 20010710

    • internal: upgraded to latest installation system.

  • 20010711

    • version: daemontools 0.75, beta.

  • 20010712

    • internal: ./package/compile creates ./compile/home.
    • internal: ./package/compile creates absolute ./compile/src symlink instead of using .., so ./compile can itself be a symlink. tnx Paul Jarc.
    • portability problem: Solaris sh has a built-in test that doesn't support -e, even though the test program supports -e. impact: package/{compile,run,upgrade} fail. tnx Mate Wierdl. fix: use -d, -h, -r.
    • version: daemontools 0.76, beta.
