What's new:
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
- Cygwin can now generate passwd/group entries directly from Windows
|
|
user databases (local SAM or Active Directory), thus allowing to run
|
|
Cygwin without having to create /etc/passwd and /etc/group files.
|
|
Introduce /etc/nsswitch.conf file to configure passwd/group handling.
|
|
|
|
For bordercase which require to use /etc/passwd and /etc/group files,
|
|
change mkpasswd/mkgroup to generate passwd/group entries compatible
|
|
with the entries read from SAM/AD.
|
|
|
|
- Add -b/--remove-all option to setfacl to reduce the ACL to only the
|
|
entries representing POSIX permission bits.
|
|
|
|
- Add -k/--remove-default option to setfacl to remove all default ACL
|
|
entries from an ACL.
|
|
|
|
- Add restore action to regtool.
|
|
|
|
- Provide Cygwin documentation (PDFs and HTML) for offline usage in
|
|
/usr/share/doc/cygwin-${version}.
|
|
|
|
- Make gethostbyname2 handle numeric host addresses as well as the reserved
|
|
domain names "localhost" and "invalid" per RFC 6761.
|
|
|
|
- New APIs: qsort_r, __bsd_qsort_r.
|
|
|
|
- New API: wcstold.
|
|
|
|
- New APIs: __fbufsize, __flbf, __fpending, __freadable, __freading,
|
|
__fsetlocking, __fwritable, __fwriting.
|
|
|
|
- New APIs: clearerr_unlocked, feof_unlocked, ferror_unlocked, fflush_unlocked,
|
|
fgetc_unlocked, fgets_unlocked, fgetwc_unlocked, fgetws_unlocked,
|
|
fileno_unlocked, fputc_unlocked, fputs_unlocked, fputwc_unlocked,
|
|
fputws_unlocked, fread_unlocked, fwrite_unlocked, getwc_unlocked,
|
|
getwchar_unlocked, putwc_unlocked, putwchar_unlocked.
|
|
|
|
- New API: sockatmark.
|
|
|
|
|
|
What changed:
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
- Revamp Solaris ACL implementation to more closely work like POSIX ACLs
|
|
are supposed to work. Finally implement a CLASS_OBJ emulation. Update
|
|
getfacl(1)/setfacl(1) accordingly.
|
|
|
|
- The xdr functions are no longer exported for newly built executables.
|
|
Use libtirpc-devel instead.
|
|
|
|
- 32 bit only: Change default values for socket buffer size to raise
|
|
performance on 10Gb networks.
|
|
|
|
- When spawning a process under another user account, merge the user's
|
|
default Windows environment into the new process' environment.
