1 D-Bus 1.5.0 (UNRELEASED)
4 • Let the bus daemon implement more than one interface (fd.o #33757,
6 • Optimize _dbus_string_replace_len to reduce waste (fd.o #21261,
8 • Include _dbus_path_is_absolute in libdbus on Windows, fixing compilation
9 (fd.o #32805, Mark Brand)
11 D-Bus 1.4.6 (2010-02-17)
14 • Remove unfinished changes intended to support GTest-based tests,
15 which were mistakenly included in 1.4.4
17 D-Bus 1.4.4 (2010-02-17)
20 • Switch back to using even micro versions for stable releases; 1.4.1
21 should have been called 1.4.2, so skip that version number
22 • Don't leave bad file descriptors being watched when spawning processes,
23 which could result in a busy-loop (fd.o #32992, NB#200248; possibly
24 also LP#656134, LP#680444, LP#713157)
25 • Check for MSG_NOSIGNAL correctly
26 • Fix failure to detect abstract socket support (fd.o #29895)
27 • Make _dbus_system_logv actually exit with DBUS_SYSTEM_LOG_FATAL
28 (fd.o #32262, NB#180486)
29 • Improve some error code paths (fd.o #29981, fd.o #32264, fd.o #32262,
30 fd.o #33128, fd.o #33277, fd.o #33126, NB#180486)
31 • Avoid possible symlink attacks in /tmp during compilation (fd.o #32854)
32 • Tidy up dead code (fd.o #25306, fd.o #33128, fd.o #34292, NB#180486)
33 • Improve gcc malloc annotations (fd.o #32710)
34 • If the system bus is launched via systemd, protect it from the OOM killer
35 • Documentation improvements (fd.o #11190)
36 • Avoid readdir_r, which is difficult to use correctly (fd.o #8284,
37 fd.o #15922, LP#241619)
38 • Cope with invalid files in session.d, system.d (fd.o #19186,
40 • Don't distribute generated files that embed our builddir (fd.o #30285,
42 • Raise the system bus's fd limit to be sufficient for its configuration
43 (fd.o #33474, LP#381063)
44 • Fix syslog string processing
46 • Remove broken gcov parsing code and --enable-gcov, and replace them
47 with lcov HTML reports and --enable-compiler-coverage (fd.o #10887)
49 · avoid live-lock in Windows CE due to unfair condition variables
51 · support credentials-passing (fd.o #32542)
53 · opt-in to thread safety (fd.o #33464)
55 D-Bus 1.4.1 (20 December 2010)
58 • Fix for CVE-2010-4352: sending messages with excessively-nested variants can
59 crash the bus. The existing restriction to 64-levels of nesting previously
60 only applied to the static type signature; now it also applies to dynamic
61 nesting using variants. Thanks to Rémi Denis-Courmont for discoving this
63 • OS X portability fixes, including launchd support.
64 • Windows autolaunch improvements.
67 D-Bus 1.4.0 (6 Sep 2010)
71 D-Bus 1.3.1 (23 June 2010)
73 - New standardized PropertiesChanged signal in the properties interface
74 - Various portability fixes, in particular to Windows platforms
75 - Support forking bus services, for compatibility
77 D-Bus 1.3.0 (29 July 2009)
79 - ability for dbus-send to send to any bus (--address)
80 - file descriptor passing on Unix socket transports
81 - use of GCC atomic intrinsics for better processor support
82 (requires -march=i486 or above for x86 compilation)
83 - thread-safe FD_CLOEXEC setting on recent Linux kernels (2.6.24-27 and up)
84 and glibc (2.9 for pipe2 and 2.10 for accept4)
85 - feature negotiation in the bus daemon
