+
+ * Syscall.cs: The Statvfs structure should contain a MountFlags enumeration,
+ not a ulong (we can "safely" do this since POSIX defines some values for
+ f_flag, so we should be kind and expose them).
+ * UnixConvert.cs: Add MountFlags conversion functions.
+
+2005-05-02 Joe Shaw <joeshaw@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixListener.cs (Init): Remove the call to Cleanup() and the
+ method itself, which was not supposed to be here. We try to
+ connect to the socket if it exists instead of deleting it
+ undconditionally.
+
+2005-04-30 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@ximian.com>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Comment out usage of `UnmanagedFunctionPointer'. It
+ isn't supported in the runtime -- it throws an assert -- so better
+ not to use it at all for now.
+
+2005-04-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixConvert.cs: Fix time_t -> DateTime conversions. time_t should be
+ assumed to be in the local time zone, so don't mess with UTC shifts.
+ This allows Mono.Unix to produce sane output (e.g. identical to ls(1) or
+ stat(1), instead of several hours different).
+
+2005-04-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Make FilePosition slightly more useful by providing a
+ ToString() override which dumps the fpos_t structure contents into a
+ hex string. Add Equals(), GetHashCode(), operator==, and operator!=
+ so FilePosition behaves like a value type.

+
+ * UnixClient.cs:
+ * UnixListener.cs: TcpListener/TcpClient clones from Jow Shaw.
+
+2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
+
+ * Mono.Posix.dll.sources: added UnixListener and UnixClient from Joe
+ Shaw.
+
+2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
+
+ * UnixEndPoint.cs: fix from Mono.Posix.
+
+2005-04-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Make all fork(2) and exec(2) functions `private`. It
+ currently isn't safe to call these under *any* circumstances. See also
+ 68141, and this pertinent quote from Butenhof's
+ "Programming with POSIX Threads", p197, s6.1:
+
+ "When a threaded process calls fork to create a child process,
+ Pthreads specifies that only the thread calling fork exists in the
+ child. ... Pthreads does not 'terminate' the other threads in a forked
+ process...They simply cease to exist. ... This is not a problem if
+ the child process is about to call exec to run a new program, but if
+ you use fork to clone a threaded program, beware that you may lose
+ access to memory, especially heap memory stored only as
+ thread-specific data values."
+
+ Since P/Invoke currently requires using thread local storage, once you
+ fork(2) you won't be able to invoke exec(2) from managed code (since that
+ would require a P/Invoke transition to call exec(2), which would require
+ TLS, which doesn't exist in the new process).
+
+ This can only be fixed by removing the TLS dependency on P/Invoke, which
+ isn't a priority (and may not be possible).
+
+ The workaround is to create a C function which does your fork(2)/exec(2)
+ (and any other functions such as daemon(3)) on your behalf, and P/Invoke
+ to call this C function.

+2005-04-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Update comment specifying which functions belong in Syscall.
+ * UnixConvert.cs: Add XattrFlags conversion functions.
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove warning about self-assignment.
+
+2005-04-16 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Add bindings for extended attribute manipulation
+
+2005-04-05 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@novell.com>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Set entry point for sys_syslog to be syslog.
+ Include the syslog.h header in the generated map so that we
+ actually do the mapping.
+
+2005-03-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixConvert.cs: Add ToFopenMode() methods, which convert FileMode/FileAccess
+ into an fopen(3) mode string. ToOpenFlags() should throw
+ ArgumentOutOfRangeException for argument violations.
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Add constructor overloads accepting filename and
+ FileMode/FileAccess overloads; Compatibility fixes with regression tests;
+ remove IDisposable implementation since System.IO.Stream already
+ implements it (which calls Close() for us).
+
+2005-03-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Move Errno-related functionality into Stdlib from Syscall,
+ since (1) errno is part of C89, and (2) StdioFileStream will need it, and
+ StdioFileStream shouldn't use Syscall. Add [UnmanagedFunctionPointer]
+ attribute to SignalHandler for .NET 2.0 (since signal handlers use C
+ calling convention, not Stdcall).
+ * Syscall.cs: Move Errno-related functionality into Stdlib.
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Use ERANGE not EPERM when figuring out appropriate
+ translator, since ERANGE is part of C99 and EPERM isn't. Use Stdlib
+ instead of Syscall for Errno-related functionality.
+
+2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixFile.cs: Cope with changes in UnixStream.
+ * UnixStream.cs: Change FileDescriptor property to Handle for consistency.
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Change FileStream property to Handle for consistency.
+
+2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Remove public sys_ methods. Some were public by mistake, and
+ others so that users could manually marshal strings if desired. Manually
+ marshaling strings shouldn't be necessary, though, so remove them too.
+
+2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Fix Length property to actually return the size of the
+ file, not the # of bytes from the current position to EOF. Oops.
+
+2005-01-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Import "msvcrt", not "libc". These members are part of the
+ ANSI C standard, and thus should be present on Windows via msvcrt.dll
+ (except snprintf, until they catch up to C99). Change the calling
+ convention of all functions to Cdecl, as the .NET default is Stdcall.
+ Changing the calling convention isn't needed in Syscall, as it can only be
+ run on Unix platforms anyway, where the default is Cdecl.
+ * Syscall.cs: Add LIBC member that points to the real "libc"; we can't use
+ the imported definition from Stdlib as "msvcrt" doesn't exist on Unix.
+
+2005-01-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: sys_* functions shouldn't be public.
+
+2005-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * make-map.cs: libMonoPosixHelper exports Mono_Posix prefixes, not Mono_Unix
+ prefixes, so change the type and namespace to generate compatible code.
+ * Syscall.cs: Change OpenFlags values so they match the Linux values.
+
+2005-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Use Stdlib.LIBC instead of "libc".
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Add FilePosition property (not that I expect anyone to
+ use it) and Rewind() method.
+
+2005-01-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Added; System.IO.Stream wrapper for C FILE struct.
+ * Stdlib.cs: Correct visibility of ftell().
+
+2005-01-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Re-order declarations to match the order used in the
+ C99 Standard Annex B; Complete <stdio.h> exports (except for those not
+ worth supporting); Add non-"unsafe" versions of fread(3), fwrite(3) and
+ add some rudimentary buffer-overflow checking; Add <stdlib.h> exports such
+ as getenv(3), exit(3), rand(3), EXIT_SUCCESS, RAND_MAX, etc.
+
+2005-01-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Update endfsent() and setfsent() declarations, as these must
+ now be implemented in MonoPosixHelper.
+
+2005-01-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs: Minimize duplicate declarations of
+ "MonoPosixHelper" for use in DllImport statements.
+
+2005-01-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Don't use C# v2 features; fixes build under CSC.EXE.
+
+2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: On miguel's suggestion, rename Sighandler_t to SignalHandler.
+
+2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Implement all C89 <stdio.h> functions except for the scanf(3)
+ family. These are too dangerous to expose.
+
+2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * CdeclFunctions.cs: Remove warning about unused variable.
+ * Stdlib.cs: Make signal(2) sane and (hopefully) complete.
+ * Syscall.cs: Fix cuserid Obsolete message to reference correct class name.
+ * UnixProcess.cs: Remove warning about unused variable.
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove warnings about unused variables.
+
+2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixPath.cs: Add ReadSymbolicLink(), which takes an intelligent approach
+ to reading symlinks (since their contents may be any size, we grow the
+ buffer dynamically to fit them all, instead of assuming a maximum size).
+ * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Remove MaxContentsSize.
+
+2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixPath.cs: Add check for when symlink points to a full path name.
+
+2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Fix Object.Equals implementations.
+ * UnixPath.cs: New & improved, with Testing! GetRealPath() is changed so
+ that it doesn't walk the entire path looking for symlinks, it just reads
+ the leaf. GetCompletRealPath() walks the entire path resolving symlinks.
+ GetCanonicalPath() added, which "cleans up" a path (removing extraneous
+ "." and ".." entries).
+ * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Rename ContentsLength -> MaxContentsSize.
+
+2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add a link(2) wrapper, CreateLink(). Strictly
+ speaking it's only "safe" to do this on files, but an exception will be
+ returned if the user tries to hard link directories (because of EPERM),
+ unless the user is root, in which case it should be allowed anyway...
+
+2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * CdeclFunctions.cs: Correct the comments for AMD64
+ * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: override Name; add Parent & Root properties;
+ Correct Path usage (s/Path/FullPath/g).
+ * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Added. Based on .NET 2.0 System.IO.DriveInfo docs,
+ provides statvfs(2) and getfsfile(3) information about a mounted volume.
+ GetDrives() wraps getfsent(3), thus parsing /etc/fstab.
+ * UnixFile.cs: Use UnixConver.ToOpenFlags, deleting the local version.
+ * UnixFileInfo.cs: Use UnixConver.ToOpenFlags, deleting the local version;
+ override Name; add DirectoryName and Directory properties;
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Make more .NET-like, using FullPath and
+ OriginalPath protected members, abstract Name property; Add
+ CreateSymbolicLink; Remove ReadLink (it's now
+ UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.Contents); Use lstat(2) for Create(string), so we
+ properly detect Symbolic Links.
+ * UnixPath.cs: Added; Path manipulation utility functions.
+ * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
+ - Seal the class;
+ - override new abstract member Name;
+ - rename ReadLink to ContentsPath (and Contents) properties
+ (why "Contents"? Because readlink(2) says "readlink places the
+ contents of the symbolic link in the buffer...")
+ - Add CreateSymbolicLinkTo(), which creates a symlink to the specified
+ "normal" file
+
2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
* Stdlib.cs: Add syslog(3) to XPrintfFunctions; Add additional printf(3)
