This test release only contains one noticable patches on top of -0.12: - Fix a problem in the new console reporting code which seems to be the culprit for the vim hang reported in https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2016-04/msg00126.html The rest of this mail is what you know from the -0.11/0.12 release messages. If things are not going very wrong, this is basically what you'll get as 2.5.0-1 release (really, we mean it this time). Please, please test and report regressions. Refresh with the following changes: - Declare BSD finite/isinf/isnan functions in . - The isinf/isinff/isinfl functions are now signed, returning -1 for negative infinity for compatibility with glibc. - Update sysconf(3) for recent feature additions. - Fix getconf(1) supported specifications on 64-bit. - Applied feature test macros in and . - Added . - fexcept_t is now an integral type for source compatibility with glibc and other systems. - Fixes for compiling with G++ 6. User-visible changes compared to 2.4.1: What's new: ----------- - Full set of POSIX.1e ACL API functions now implemented. New APIs: acl_add_perm, acl_calc_mask, acl_clear_perms, acl_copy_entry, acl_copy_ext, acl_copy_int, acl_create_entry, acl_delete_def_file, acl_delete_entry, acl_delete_perm, acl_dup, acl_free, acl_from_text, acl_get_entry, acl_get_fd, acl_get_file, acl_get_permset, acl_get_qualifier, acl_get_tag_type, acl_init, acl_set_fd, acl_set_file, acl_set_permset, acl_set_qualifier, acl_set_tag_type, acl_size, acl_to_text, acl_valid. - Most libacl extensions now implemented, too: New APIs: acl_check, acl_cmp, acl_entries, acl_equiv_mode, acl_error, acl_extended_fd, acl_extended_file, acl_extended_file_nofollow, acl_from_mode, acl_get_perm, acl_to_any_text. - First implementation of pthread_barrier/pthread_barrierattr functions. New APIs: pthread_barrierattr_init, pthread_barrierattr_setpshared, pthread_barrierattr_getpshared, pthread_barrierattr_destroy, pthread_barrier_init, pthread_barrier_destroy, pthread_barrier_wait. - Enabled console reports requested by escape sequences: Requesting primary and secondary device attributes, requesting cursor position report; see https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-patches/2012-q3/msg00019.html - New APIs: clog10, clog10f, nexttoward, nexttowardf, nexttowardl. - Add missing long double functions. New APIs: acoshl, acosl, asinhl, asinl, atan2l, atanhl, atanl, cacoshl, cacosl, cargl, casinhl, casinl, catanhl, catanl, ccoshl, ccosl, ceill, cexpl, clog10l, clogl, conjl, copysignl, coshl, cosl, cpowl, cprojl, csinhl, csinl, csqrtl, ctanhl, ctanl, dreml, erfcl, erfl, exp10l, exp2l, expl, expm1l, fabsl, fdiml, floorl, fmal, fmaxl, fminl, fmodl, frexpl, ilogbl, isinfl, isnanl, ldexpl, lgammal, lgammal_r, llroundl, log10l, log1pl, log2l, logbl, logl, lroundl, modfl, nearbyintl, nextafterl, pow10l, powl, remainderl, remquol, roundl, scalbl, scalblnl, scalbnl, sincosl, sinhl, sinl, tanhl, tanl, tgammal, truncl. - New header: cpio.h. What changed: ------------- - Including now *only* includes the POSIX ACL API. To include the old Solaris API, include . - In calls to chmod treat ACLs with extra ACEs *only* for Admins and SYSTEM like a trivial ACL. - Bump POSIX option macros to POSIX.1-2008. - Profiling data, specifically pc sampling, now covers all threads of a program and not just the main thread. Environment variable GMON_OUT_PREFIX enables multiple gmon.out files to preserve profiling data after fork or from multiple program runs. - Feature test macros, which control which symbols are exposed in the standard headers, have been completely overhauled for compatibility with glibc. - The isinf, isinff, and isinfl functions are signed, returning -1 for negative infinity for compatibility with glibc. Bug Fixes --------- - Fix potential hang when using LoadLibraryEx(LOAD_LIBRARY_SEARCH_SYSTEM32). Reported and tested via IRC. - Fix a bug in ACL handling which might result in a spurious extra entry for the primary group. Self-observed. - printf(3): Handle multibyte decimal point in field size computation.
