All releases of OSSP mm


Release Notes: A trailing whitespace in mm.pod that confused pod2html(1) and generated bad output was fixed.


Release Notes: This release adds new API functions MM_reset() and mm_reset(). It upgrades the build environment to GNU shtool 2.0.6, GNU libtool 1.5.22, and GNU autoconf 2.60. It fixes spelling errors in the mm(3) man page, and corrects the description of the mm_sizeof() function.


Release Notes: The insertion of free memory chunks has been optimized by merging with the spare memory area if possible to decrease memory fragmentation. Memory chunk reallocation has been fixed.


Release Notes: The build environment was updated to use GNU Shtool 2.0.1, GNU Libtool 1.5.8, and Autoconf 2.59.


Release Notes: This release will correctly cleanup under MM_SHMT_MMZERO in case of a shared memory segment creation error, and close the file descriptor of the underlying object immediately after mmap(2)'ing it in the case of MM_SHMT_MMPOSX, MM_SHMT_MMZERO, and MM_SHMT_MMFILE.


Release Notes: This release upgrades the build environment to newer versions of shtool, libtool, and autoconf, a "close-on-exec" semantic is now used on internal file descriptors if supported, to make sure file descriptors are closed by the kernel upon execution of exec(3) by the application, and a small Makefile fix is included.


Release Notes: This release fixes the tarball, because configure.ac was missing which caused problems for people who embed OSSP mm as a sub-library into their own Autoconf environment.


Release Notes: A race condition in temporary file creation was fixed. Under MM_SEMT_IPCSEM, the permission/owner of the semaphore is made sure to be performed. Support for IRIX 6.5 was added, and the old fbtool stuff for reporting the success/failure on building was removed. Upgrades were also made to GNU autoconf 2.53, GNU libtool 1.4.2, and the GNU shtool 1.6.1 build environment.


Release Notes: Various cleanups and bugfixes.


Release Notes: The -g compiler option handling has been fixed and the platform determination for Linux has been enhanced.
A Two-floppy/CD/USB Stick Linux 2.4 rescue system with support for many filesystems.
