[Gelistirici] Fwd: glibc 2.7

[Ismail Dönmez]

2008 için glibc 2.7'ye geçelim diyorum, fikirler? 

Mesajdaki son cümleye dikkat : "Whether it will actually be actively 
maintained depends on the time available. "

Pfff...

The current cvs head has been tagged as glibc-2_7, the official glibc 
2.7 release.  It has been tested extensively as part of rawhide and as 
part of the test releases for the upcoming Fedora 8 release.  There are 
no known regressions so far.  On platforms other than x86 and x86-64 
parts of the math test suite fail, but I reported this some time ago.  A 
patch is still forthcoming from the interested parties.  This is no 
regression, though, it's just a new test which still fails. 
 
 
The user-visible changes in this release include: 
 
* More checking functions: fread, fread_unlocked, open*, mq_open. 
  Implemented by Jakub Jelinek and Ulrich Drepper. 
 
* Extend fortification to C++.  Implemented by Jakub Jelinek. 
 
* Implement 'm' modifier for scanf.  Add stricter C99/SUS compliance 
  by not recognizing 'a' as a modifier when those specs are requested. 
  Implemented by Jakub Jelinek. 
 
* PPC optimizations to math and string functions. 
  Implemented by Steven Munroe. 
 
* New interfaces: mkostemp, mkostemp64.  Like mkstemp* but allow 
  additional options to be passed.  Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. 
 
* More CPU set manipulation functions.  Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. 
 
* New Linux interfaces: signalfd, eventfd, eventfd_read, and 
  eventfd_write.  Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. 
 
* Handle private futexes in the NPTL implementation. 
  Implemented by Jakub Jelinek and Ulrich Drepper. 
 
* Add support for O_CLOEXEC.  Implement in Hurd.  Use throughout libc. 
  Implemented by Roland McGrath and Ulrich Drepper. 
 
* Linux/x86-64 vDSO support.  Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. 
 
* SHA-256 and SHA-512 based password encryption. 
  Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. 
 
* New locales: ber_DZ, ber_MA, en_NG, fil_PH, fur_IT, fy_DE, ha_NG, 
  ig_NG, ik_CA, iu_CA, li_BE, li_NL, nds_DE, nds_NL, pap_AN, sc_IT, 
  tk_TM, ug_CN, yo_NG. 
 
+ New iconv modules: MAC-CENTRALEUROPE, ISO-8859-9E, KOI8-RU. 
  Implemented by Ulrich Drepper. 
 
 
The next release, version 2.8, will as now usual be in about 6 months. 
The cvs trunk will right away be used for the 2.8 development.  The 
branch for the 2.7 release is named glibc-2_7-branch.  Whether it will 
actually be actively maintained depends on the time available.
