Nick Mathewson fbaf0770 2010-10-26T12:09:20 Fix bugs in posix thread-id calculation when sizeof(pthread_t) != sizeof(long) When pthread_t was smaller, our calculated thread IDs would include uninitialized RAM, and so our unit tests would fail because thread_ids would never match one another. When pthread_t was larger and alignment was big-endian, our calculated thread IDs would only have the most significant bytes of the pthread_t, when in practice all the entropy is in the low-order bytes. Found with help from Dagobert Michelsen.
Nick Mathewson 9dc5f44a 2010-10-14T22:12:32 Increment version in git to 2.0.8-rc-dev
Nick Mathewson ef18c994 2010-10-14T18:36:07 Increment the version to 2.0.8-rc NOTE: This is not the official release until I tag it. If you see this commit, and you decide that Libevent 2.0.8-rc is now finalized, you might get something besides 2.0.8-rc.
Nick Mathewson d3b096c0 2010-10-14T13:54:15 Make the --enable-gcc-warnings option include signed comparison warnings
Nick Mathewson 5811d74c 2010-09-09T15:59:18 Bump version to 2.0.7-rc-dev
Nick Mathewson fe008ed6 2010-09-09T14:59:27 Make all versioning changes for 2.0.7-rc, and add ChangeLog
Nick Mathewson 6123d129 2010-08-19T09:38:44 Fix kquue correctness test on x84_64 Apparently, in our configure.in check for a working kqueue, we were leaving some fields unset that seemed to irritate 64-bit kqueue a lot. Found by Christopher Layne
Nick Mathewson 9b5c19ac 2010-08-10T11:46:00 Merge branch 'more_pkgconfig'
Nick Mathewson ebcb1f03 2010-08-10T11:11:25 Add pkgconfig files for libevent_{openssl,pthreads}

Nick Mathewson 556d0f40 2010-08-06T21:19:44 Increment versions to 2.0.6-rc
Nick Mathewson ec347b92 2010-07-07T16:45:03 Move event-config.h to include/event2 This change means that all required include files are in event2, and all files not in event2/* are optional.
Nick Mathewson d14bb926 2010-05-18T14:05:01 Use -Wlogical-op on gcc 4.5 or higher It exposed one bug for us (see 8c3452bcb294e07888), and might prevent more.
Nick Mathewson 75701e89 2010-05-14T14:30:09 Add some missing includes to fix Linux build again
Nick Mathewson 9cb5bc86 2010-05-10T14:51:32 Bump version to 2.0.5-beta-dev
Nick Mathewson ad9b7f15 2010-05-09T00:22:08 Increment version numbers for 2.0.5-beta
Nick Mathewson 7c519dfd 2010-05-08T23:29:29 Fix some autoconf issues on OpenBSD Issue 1: autoconf gets accept when a header works properly with cpp but not with cc. This was true of the sys/sysctl.h header on openbsd. The fix: include sys/param.h (if present) when testing for sys/sysctl.h Issue 2: Somehow, autoconf's macro generation code is messed up on some versions of openbsd (including mine, and other people's too) so that instead of SIZEOF_VOID_P, it makes SIZEOF_VOID__. evutil/util.h now works around that.
Nick Mathewson c1cd32a1 2010-05-08T22:21:52 Define _REENTRANT as needed on Solaris, elsewhere It turns out that _REENTRANT isn't only needed to make certain functions visible; we also need it to make pthreads work properly some places (like Solaris, where forgetting _REENTRANT basically means that all threads are sharing the same errno). Fortunately, our ACX_PTHREAD() configure macro already gives us a PTHREAD_CFLAG variable, so all we have to do is use it.
Nick Mathewson c44de06c 2010-05-08T18:09:27 Numerous opensolaris compilation fixes For future note, opensolaris doesn't have sys/sysctl.h, doesn't like comparing iov_buf to a chain_space_ptr without a cast, and is (predictably) unforgiving of dumb syntax errors. Also, we had accidentally broken the devpoll backend test in configure.in
Nick Mathewson 40c301b7 2010-04-28T14:56:51 Fix compilation when openssl support is disabled Previously, we'd fail if OpenSSL was present but openssl support was disabled. Now we don't.
Nick Mathewson a47a4b7e 2010-04-23T16:08:09 Fix a couple of bugs in the BSD sysctl arc4seed logic Of course, FreeBSD has its own arc4random() implementation, so this should never actually be needed. Still, it's good to paint the underside of the wagon.
Nick Mathewson 71fc3eb0 2010-03-04T01:13:51 Seed the RNG using sysctl() as well as /dev/urandom William Ahern points out that if the user has chrooted, they might not have a working /dev/urandom. Linux and many of the BSDs, however, define a sysctl interface to their kernel random number generators. This patch takes a belt-and-suspenders approach and tries to do use the sysctl _and_ the /dev/urandom approach if both are present. When using the sysctl approach, it tries to bulletproof itself by checking to make sure that the buffers are actually set by the sysctl calls.
Trond Norbye 3eb044d0 2010-03-23T13:27:10 Never test for select() on windows On 64-bit windows, configure actually _finds_ select when it tests for it, and due to the ordering of the io implementations in event.c it is chosen over the win32select implementation. This modification skips the test for select on win32 (we don't want that anyway, because Windows has its own), causing my windows box to get the win32select implementation. (edited by Nick)
Nick Mathewson 2e898f54 2010-03-12T14:16:30 Switch to using AM conditionals in place of AC_LIBOBJ AC_LIBOBJ is really only meant for defining missing library functions, not conditional code compilation. Sticking our conditionally compiled modules in SYS_SRC should make stuff easier to maintain.
Nick Mathewson 2cffd6c9 2010-02-28T16:53:42 Bump version to 2.0.4-alpha-dev
Nick Mathewson 9669ade5 2010-02-28T12:55:29 Bump the version to 2.0.4-alpha
Nick Mathewson ca46d25b 2010-02-17T23:02:28 Merge branch 'arc4random'
Nick Mathewson 63e868e6 2010-02-15T16:45:19 Increment the submicro version number. We've changed a couple of APIs introduced in 2.0.1-alpha, so it behooves us to give high-needs apps (like Tor) a way to tell we've done this. Sensible apps will just say "is it 2.0.3-alpha or 2.0.4-alpha" and ignore the existence of 2.0.3-alpha-dev, which is just as it should be.
Nick Mathewson 4ec8fea6 2010-02-13T00:11:44 Make RNG work when we have arc4random() but not arc4random_buf()
Nick Mathewson d4de062e 2010-02-10T17:19:18 Add an arc4random implementation for use by evdns Previously, evdns was at the mercy of the user for providing a good entropy source; without one, it would be vulnerable to various active attacks. This patch adds a port of OpenBSD's arc4random() calls to Libevent [port by Chris Davis], and wraps it up a little bit so we can use it more safely.
Nick Mathewson 1fa4c81c 2010-01-26T12:06:41 Add ev_[u]intptr_t to include/event2/util.h We already emulate most of the other useful bits of stdint.h, and we seem to have started to use uintptr_t in a few places throughout the code. Let's make sure we can continue to do so even on backwards platforms that don't do C99.
Nick Mathewson cd17c3ac 2010-01-22T00:34:37 Add support for a "debug mode" to try to catch common errors. Right now it only catches cases where we aren't initializing events, or where we are re-initializing events without deleting them first. These are however shockingly common.
Nick Mathewson 7296971b 2009-12-29T16:38:03 Detect setenv/unsetenv; skip main/base_environ test if we can't fake them. Previously, we assumed that we would have setenv/unsetenv everywhere but WIN32, where we could fake them with putenv. This isn't so: some other non-windows systems lack setenv/unsetenv, and some of them lack putenv too. The first part of the solution, then, is to detect setenv/unsetenv/ putenv from configure.in, and to fake setenv/unsetenv with putenv whenever we have the latter but not one of the former. But what should we do when we don't even have putenv? We could do elaborate tricks to manipulate the environ pointer, but since we're only doing this for the unit tests, let's just skip the one test in question that uses setenv/unsetenv.
Nick Mathewson 78ed0972 2009-12-30T11:58:36 Never believe that we have pthreads on win32, even if gcc thinks we do. Apparently some newer versions of mingw provide a fake pthreads api to let applications work even if they don't know about windows threading. That's nice, but we aren't one of those.
Nick Mathewson 5a112d3c 2009-12-18T23:37:50 Set all instances of the version number correctly. Note that we've made two subtle mistakes: we are supposed to suffix any non-released version with "-dev", and we're supposed to use the last byte of the numeric version to indicate whether we have done this. For example, when 2.0.4-alpha is released, its numeric versin will be 0x 02 00 04 00. As soon as we tag it, we will change the version in the git repository to 2.0.4-alpha-dev, whose numeric version will be 0x 02 00 04 01 or something.
Niels Provos 505040a2 2009-11-20T00:18:35 call it 2.0.3-alpha svn:r1556
Nick Mathewson 888007f9 2009-11-17T02:38:19 Windows *does* have getservbyname, no matter what autoconf says. TODO: figure out why autoconf is confused about this. svn:r1538
Nick Mathewson 86f57420 2009-11-16T22:25:46 Add two implementations of getaddrinfo: one blocking and one nonblocking. The entry points are evutil_getaddrinfo and evdns_getaddrinfo respectively. There are fairly extensive unit tests. I believe this code conforms to RFC3493 pretty closely, but there are probably more issues. It should get tested on more platforms. This code means we can dump the well-intentioned but weirdly-implemented bufferevent_evdns and evutil_resolve code. svn:r1537
Nick Mathewson 629a6133 2009-11-15T18:59:59 When running set[ug]id, don't check the environment. Idea from OpenBSD, but made a bit more generic to handle uncivilized lands that do not define issetugid. svn:r1530
Nick Mathewson e2b2de79 2009-11-15T18:59:48 Use arc4random() for dns transaction ids where available. Patch taken from OpenBSD svn:r1528
Nick Mathewson 47bad8ab 2009-11-04T20:17:32 Implement size limits on HTTP header length and body length. Patch from Constantine Verutin, simplified a little. svn:r1500
Nick Mathewson 0b9eb1bf 2009-11-03T20:40:48 Add a bufferevent function to resolve a name then connect to it. This function, bufferevent_socket_connect_hostname() can either use evdns to do the resolve, or use a new function (evutil_resolve) that uses getaddrinfo or gethostbyname, like http.c does now. This function is meant to eventually replace the hostname resolution mess in http.c. svn:r1496
Nick Mathewson 18fe4008 2009-09-23T23:51:26 Forward-port: fix android compilation svn:r1435
Nick Mathewson 22bd5b42 2009-08-16T16:40:42 Support sendfile on solaris: patch from Caitlin Mercer. svn:r1419
Nick Mathewson 709c21c4 2009-07-28T04:03:57 Bufferevent support for openssl. This code adds a new Bufferevent type that is only compiled when the openssl library is present. It supports using an SSL object and an event alert mechanism, which can either be an fd or an underlying bufferevent. There is still more work to do: the unit tests are incomplete, and we need to support flush and shutdown much better. Sometimes events are generated needlessly: this will hose performance. There's a new encrypting proxy in sample/le-proxy.c. This code has only been tested on OSX, and nowhere else. svn:r1382
Niels Provos 6fbeb923 2009-07-25T03:23:46 call it 2.0.2-alpha svn:r1378
Nick Mathewson 1fb2e818 2009-07-17T21:47:45 Use a uniform strategy when a function is not working: do not expose it. Rather than failing at runtime, it is better to fail at compile or link time. svn:r1363
Nick Mathewson d3a8ccb8 2009-07-10T19:38:16 Change use of AC_CHECK_LIB to AC_SEARCH_LIBS. Patch from Zack Weinberg. His message: This one eliminates all use of AC_CHECK_LIB in the configure script. AC_CHECK_LIB has a serious flaw: if the library you mention *exists* but is not *necessary* for the function you want, it adds it to $(LIBS) anyway. This was fine in the days of static libraries, because the linker would ignore an .a library that didn't contain anything you needed. However, ELF shared libraries are different (let's not get into why): the linker will by default record a DT_NEEDED entry for every shared object mentioned on the link command line. Thus, every use of AC_CHECK_LIB is a potential unnecessary DT_NEEDED, making extra work for the dynamic loader. The cure is simply to use AC_SEARCH_LIBS instead; it first tries to find the function you ask for in libc, and only if that doesn't work does it try to use the extra library you mention. For the same reasons, pkg-config .pc files should distinguish between the libraries to use for shared linkage (Libs:) and the additional libraries needed for static linkage (Libs.private:). I have also made that correction in this patch. I also took the opportunity to clean up the substitution variables a little and make absolutely sure that the core library does not get linked against zlib. svn:r1338
Nick Mathewson 49f18a0a 2009-05-25T20:02:51 Add requirement in configure.in for autoconf 2.59c. Needed for ssize_t test. Spotted by Yang Hong. svn:r1313
Nick Mathewson b2e8fd0e 2009-04-30T23:56:53 Apparently MSVC lacks a ssize_t. Define an ev_ssize_t for headers, and make ssize_t work elsewhere. svn:r1261
Nick Mathewson df0617f2 2009-04-23T00:21:23 Use signal.h, not sys/signal.h. This is patch 2673214 from mmadia. It is correct, since we unconditionally include signal.h in many other places, and only sometimes include sys/signal.h. It is necessary to compile on Haiku, I'm told. svn:r1228
Nick Mathewson e2b987ed 2009-04-23T00:01:05 bump the numeric version; this is not the same as the alpha. svn:r1224
Nick Mathewson 99de1867 2009-04-17T23:07:48 Bump version to 2.0.1-alpha-dev so that nobody mistakes a svn checkout for 2.0.1-alpha. svn:r1196
Nick Mathewson d047b323 2009-04-17T17:22:32 Increment version to 2.0.1-alpha, and add a numeric version facility svn:r1193
Nick Mathewson 7fa8451d 2009-04-17T06:56:57 Add a configure flag to hardcode all of our mm functions. svn:r1186

Nick Mathewson 52eb4951 2009-01-31T07:31:47 Build with the -fno-strict-aliasing flag on GCC. You do not want to know about the 2 hours I just spent tracking down an evdns bug that only affected me on some platforms to the way we were using sockaddr* and sockaddr_in*. Suffice it to say that I do not think this is the only C99-aliasing-dubiousness in our code, nor that I am smart enough to keep my code correct with the GCC's strict aliasing optimizations in place. svn:r1079

Nick Mathewson a5901991 2009-01-19T20:37:24 Use eventfd for main-thread notification where available (i.e., linux). svn:r1023
Nick Mathewson ec4cfa33 2009-01-19T01:34:14 Make event_break threadsafe; make notify-thread mechanism a little more generic; let it use pipes where they work. svn:r1019
Nick Mathewson 980bcd68 2009-01-02T21:21:58 Work better with platforms that do not have ipv6 structures, or that do not have sin_len fields, etc. svn:r986
Nick Mathewson 0d9d5cfe 2009-01-02T20:46:12 New functions in evutil to clone inet_pton and inet_ntop, with tests. Adapted from Tor code. svn:r983
