+
+ * UnixSignal.cs: Change the native WaitAny() method to accept a
+ Mono_Posix_RuntimeIsShuttingDown delegate, so that we can prevent an
+ infinite loop while shutting the process down. Fixes #592981.
+
+2009-03-23 Jonathan Pryor <jpryor@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixDriveInfo.cs: UnixDriveInfo.AvailableFreeSpace needs to return
+ stat.f_bavail * stat.f_frsize, NOT f_bavail*f_bsize, as on some
+ platforms (Solaris) bsize is the preferred block I/O size, while
+ f_frsize is the *actual* filesystem block size. Thus, to get proper
+ disk under Solaris, we need to s/f_bsize/f_frsize/g.
+
+2009-02-20 Jonathan Pryor <jpryor@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixSignal.cs: Add a pipecnt member to UnixSignal.SignalIinfo.
+ Patch thanks to tim.jenks@realtimeworlds.com.
+
+2009-02-09 Jonathan Pryor <jpryor@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixGroupInfo.cs (GetMembers): Skip group members which aren't valid
+ users on the system (thus removing a possible exception). Patch
+ thanks to Daniel Peñalba.
+
+2009-01-08 Rodrigo Kumpera <rkumpera@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixSignal.cs: Check if realtime signal install failed with
+ EADDRINUSE due to the signal been used by outside of Mono.Posix.
+
+2008-12-19 Jonathan Pryor <jpryor@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixSignal.cs: Allow RealTimeSignums to be used in addition to
+ Signum, so that real time signals can be used. Patch thanks to
+ tim.jenks@realtimeworlds.com.
+
+2008-11-04 Andrés G. Aragoneses <aaragoneses@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixStream.cs: Do not check offset against int.MaxValue
+ (System.IO doesn't have it). Reviewed by Jonathan Pryor.
+ Bug reported by Siro Blanco <siro.blanco@gmail.com>.
+
+2008-11-03 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixClient.cs (Client): Make this property public when using the
+ Mono 2.0 profile, based on a discussion with Vlad Hociota and Joe
+ Shaw.
+
+2008-02-11 Jonathan Pryor <jpryor@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixSignal.cs: Improve argument checking to match docs.
+
+2008-02-08 Jonathan Pryor <jpryor@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixSignal.cs: UnixSignal.WaitAny() should have the same return type as
+ WaitHandle.WaitAny(). Oops.
+
+2008-02-08 Jonathan Pryor <jpryor@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixSignal.cs: Modification of Info->count should be thread safe.
+
+2008-01-28 Jonathan Pryor <jpryor@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixSignal.cs: Added; Polling and blocking based Unix signal mechanism.

+
+2008-01-22 Sebastien Pouliot <sebastien@ximian.com>
+
+ * UnixPipes.cs: Fix Equals to avoid NRE (and return false if object
+ is null). Found using Gendarme.
+
+2007-12-17 Jonathan Pryor <jpryor@novell.com>
+
+ * UnixEnvironment.cs: Update MachineName property accesor to use uname(2)
+ instead of gethostname(2), as gethostname(2) truncates the machine name to
+ 16 characters, while uname(2) doesn't.
+
+2007-12-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: Fix Parent property so that it properly handles
+ returning the parent of "/". UnixPath.GetDirectoryName() returns "" on
+ "error", not null; act accordingly.
+ * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Fix IsReady property so that it returns `false' if no
+ media is mounted. The presence of media is determined by comparing the
+ Statvfs.f_fsid value of the current and parent directories; if they
+ differ, it is assumed that media is present, and thus the directory is
+ ready. If they're identical, then media isn't present, and the directory
+ isn't ready.
+ * UnixPath.cs: UnixPath.GetDirectoryName("/mnt") should return "/", not "".
+
+2007-09-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixStream.cs: Don't read/write if the buffer has no data. Fixes #82836.
+
+2006-10-24 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * MapAttribute.cs: Moved to ../Mono.Unix.Native/MapAttribute.cs.
+
+2006-08-21 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixStream.cs: .Close() shouldn't close(2) the fd unless owner==true;
+ .Flush() should be a no-op (as System.IO.Stream.Flush doesn't gaurantee
+ that .Flush() actually flush to disk, and .Flush() slows things down a
+ lot); see: http://joeshaw.org/2006/08/21/415.
+
+2006-08-16 Alp Toker <alp@atoker.com>
+
+ * UnixEndPoint.cs:
+ * AbstractUnixEndPoint.cs: Second half of the fix for #79084.
+ Add support for the abstract namespace, and update existing file-based
+ UnixEndPoint (de)serialization to reflect changes in the runtime.
+
+2006-07-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Oops. CreateSymbolicLinkTo() should create
+ FullPath, not OriginalName. This was fixed in one overload in January,
+ but I missed an overload. :-/
+
+2006-07-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixPath.cs: Follow .NET's System.IO.Path.Combine() behavior, and "reset"
+ the generated path if any argument beings with a path root --
+ UnixPath.Combine("/a", "/b") should return "/b", not "/a/b". Fixes #78580.
+
+2006-04-21 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: rename Create() to GetFileSystemEntry(), and make
+ it public (so that other's don't need to worry about the
+ Syscall.lstat()-and-switch to create a UnixFileSystemInfo instance).
+ * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
+ s/Create/GetFileSystemEntry/g (to cope with above change).
+
+2006-03-09 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
+
+ * UnixEndPoint.cs: added GetHashCode/Equals.
+
+2006-03-06 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Remove requirement that mountPoints be avaible via
+ getfsfile(3). This isn't always the case -- in particular drives mounted
+ via HAL and other mechanisms won't be listed in /etc/fstab, and thus won't
+ be returned via getfsfile(3). If getfsfile(3) fails, then we "guess" on
+ the drive format and volume label.
+ * UnixStream.cs: RefreshStat() should assert that the instance hasn't been
+ disposed.
+ * UnixEnvironment.cs (GetConfigurationValue, GetConfigurationString): Fix
+ error checking.
+
+2006-02-23 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Create() should return a UnixFileInfo if the file
+ doesn't exist. This allows callers to use UnixFileInfo.Exists to see if
+ the file exists, and behaves more rationally e.g. if the directory
+ contents changes while calling UnixDirectoryInfo.GetFileSystemEntries(),
+ we'll get a UnixFileInfo entry that doesn't exist instead of an exception
+ terminating the entire array creation.
+ * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: [Obsolete] the Contents property -- this property
+ *always* creates a new object if HasContents=true, and since a
+ UnixFileSystemInfo instance is (104+2*(sizeof(void*))+1) bytes (~113 bytes
+ on 32-bit platforms), we don't want to create these frequently. Add a
+ GetContents() method as the replacement, to make it (slightly) more
+ explicit that information won't be cached (and thus should be cached by
+ the caller, if appropriate). GetContents() throws an exception if
+ HasContents=false instead of returning null; this change brings the
+ implementation in line with the documentation.
+
+2006-02-18 Alp Toker <alp@atoker.com>
+
+ * UnixEndPoint.cs: Avoid truncation of last two bytes of SocketAddress
+ string
+
+2006-01-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Check for null arguments in PtrToString() and
+ PtrToStringArray().
+
+2006-01-24 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs (StringToHeap): Return IntPtr.Zero if `s' is null.
+
+2006-01-24 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs (StringToHeap): Check for null arguments.
+
+2006-01-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Properties should generate an InvalidOperationException,
+ not an IOException. Users can use IsReady to avoid exception generation.
+ * UnixIOException.cs: Create a custom message that embeds the error name
+ within the text, e.g. "Permission denied [EACCES]."
+ * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: This really should create the file FullPath, not
+ OriginalPath. Created files shouldn't ever be relative to the current
+ working directory, as this can change at any time.
+
+2006-01-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixUserInfo.cs: The UnixUserInfo(Native.Passwd) constructor and
+ ToPasswd() should clone the underlying Native.Passwd, so
+ that it doesn't get changed from underneath it.
+ * UnixGroupInfo.cs: The UnixGroupInfo(Native.Group) constructor should also
+ clone the provided Native.Group instance.
+
+2006-01-14 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixGroupInfo.cs: ToGroup() should clone the underlying Native.Group, so
+ that it doesn't get changed from underneath it.
+
+2006-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Catalog.cs, UnixMarshal.cs: Throw `UnixIOException(Native.Errno.ENOMEM)`
+ instead of System.OutOfMemoryException. OOME should be reserved for use
+ by the CLR (according to FxDG).
+
+2006-01-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixPath.cs: Add ReadLink() and TryReadLink() methods.
+
+2006-01-12 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@novell.com>
+
+ * PeerCred.cs: Do not define PeerCredData as this is a structure
+ known to the runtime. Instead use the Mono.Posix.PeerCredData
+ internal class.
+
+2006-01-10 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Catalog.cs: Don't use
+ System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.StringToHGlobalAuto(), use
+ UnixMarshal.StringToHeap(). We require that the converted string be in
+ UTF-8 format, but .NET's Marshal.StringToHGlobalAuto converts to the local
+ code page, *not* UTF-8 (Mono's does UTF-8). UnixMarshal.StringToHeap
+ *always* does UTF-8, so use that instead.
+
+2006-01-09 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * FileTypes.cs: Remove [Flags] attribute -- these aren't bitfield values.
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Fix Is<<Type>> properties -- before it would
+ erroneously say that a symlink was a character device. (This is because
+ device values are *not* [Flags] values, but code was assuming they were.)
+ * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Clone the string[] returned from GetMemberNames(). We
+ don't want callers to change the underlying list.
+
+2006-01-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: *Actually* put things in alphabetical order (like the
+ comment says). I can speak english, really I can.
+
+2006-01-06 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Catalog.cs: s/libintl/intl/g, since intl.dll is used by GTK+ on Windows,
+ not libintl.dll (according to
+ http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html).
+
+2006-01-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs (CreateExceptionForError): Don't map ENOMEM to
+ System.OutOfMemoryException. OOME should be reserved for use by the CLR.
+ Return a UnixIOException instead (default behavior).
+
+2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Shut up FxCop - add a GC.KeepAlive to
+ AssertNotDisposed().
+ * UnixClient.cs, UnixListener.cs: Use System.MarshalByRefObject as the base
+ class. These types implement IDisposable and have a finalizer, so if an
+ instance of these types were sent to another AppDomain they'd previously
+ marshal by copy, which could lead to a double release of an unmanaged
+ resource -- potential badness. Using MarshalByRefObject fixes this.
+
+2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: s/EACCESS/EACCES/g. I can't read.
+
+2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * StdioFileStream.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs,
+ UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs,
+ UnixIOException.cs, UnixMarshal.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs,
+ UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Remove Obsolete API.
+ * CdeclFunction.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs, Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs,
+ UnixConvert.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixGroup.cs,
+ UnixUser.cs: Delete.
+ * UnixPath.cs: Remove InvalidPathChars; use GetInvalidPathChars() instead.
+ * FileTypes.cs: Remove Obsolete API
+
+2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * FileAccessPermissions.cs: Remove UserMask, GroupMask, OtherMask values.
+ * FileSpecialAttributes.cs: Remove AllAttributes member; it shouldn't be
+ public. Use UnixFileSystemInfo.AllSpecialAttributes instead.
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Open files in binary mode, not text;
+ Fix exception message for StdioFileStream(path, mode) mode param check.
+ * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: Add Create(FileAccessPermissions) overload; change
+ GetFileSystemEntries() to include the directory name that the files came
+ from (otherwise they're in the current working direcetory, which they
+ probably aren't).
+ * UnixFileInfo.cs: Add Create(FileAccessPermissions) overload; Add better
+ argument checking to several Open() overloads.
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add AllSpecialAttributes, AllFileTypes members;
+ FullPath member should invalidate instance if path changes; Change return
+ type of GetFileStatus for maintenance/better documentation; ToStat()
+ should ensure that the instance is valid first.
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Add additional Errno values to CreateExceptionForError();
+ reformat CreateExceptionForError for maintenance.
+ * UnixPath.cs: Obsolete InvalidPathChars -- FxCop never liked it, and now I
+ know why it didn't like it (thank you Framework Design Guidelines!).
+ * UnixStream.cs: Use UnixFileSystemInfo.AllSpecialAttributes, not
+ FileSpecialAttributes.AllAttributes (which was removed).
+ * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Change return type of GetFileStatus().
+
+2005-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * FileHandleOperations.cs: Check for null references.
+
+2005-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Errno.EBADF should also trigger a ArgumentException.
+
+2005-12-27 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * FileHandleOperations.cs, FileTypes.cs, Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs,
+ UnixConvert.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs,
+ UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
+ UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixIOException.cs, UnixMarshal.cs,
+ UnixPath.cs, UnixPipes.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs,
+ UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Mark to-be-removed
+ API with [Obsolete(IsError=true)] (permits compiler assistance for finding
+ obsolete code); Migrate to the Mono.Unix.Native API.
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Add non-Obsolete overloads for SaveFilePosition &
+ RestoreFilePosition (oops). Migrate to Mono.Unix.Native API.
+
+2005-12-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Add PtrToStringUnix() -- specialized PtrToString method
+ which is significantly faster than PtrToString(p, UnixEncoding.Instance).
+ Use System.String..ctor(sbyte*, int, int, Encoding) to avoid the byte[]
+ intermediate copy -- much faster. Fix PtrToString() so that it will
+ accept an IntPtr containing 0 characters, and don't duplicate strings
+ unless necessary.
+
+2005-11-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Catalog.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs,
+ UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
+ UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs,
+ UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Change types of [Obsolete] members for
+ consistency and CLS compliance; Mono.Unix.Native type migration.
+ * FileTypes.cs: s/Special/Device/g (CharacterSpecial ==> CharacterDevice).
+ The *Special was a BSD convention, while UnixFileSystemInfo uses *Device
+ in property names, and these should be consistent. Changing the enum is
+ simpler than changing the UnixFileSystemInfo properties.
+ * UnixIOException.cs: s/error/errno/g (FxCop suggestion); change type of
+ ErrorCode property.
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: s/error/errno/g (FxCop suggestion); Mono.Unix.Native
+ type migration.
+
+2005-11-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Catalog.cs: Exception safety improvements (don't let memory leak!); check
+ for errors with bindtextdomain(3) et. al.
+
+2005-11-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixPipes.cs: Provide Equals, GetHashCode, and operator==/operator!= to
+ conform with FxCop guidelines for structures.
+
+2005-11-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * FileTypes.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: s/FIFO/Fifo/ to follow .NET
+ naming conventions (as reported by FxCop).
+
+2005-11-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs,
+ UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixUserInfoc.cs:
+ Obsolete statements now specify in what way the return type will change.
+ * IncludeAttribute.cs: Obsoleted. It's an error to use it now.
+
+2005-11-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * FileAccessPattern.cs: Change enumeration names to match Robert Love's more
+ sensible names from his FileAdvise class used in Beagle
+ (UseSoon --> PreLoad, WillNotUse --> FlushCache).
+ * FileHandleOperations.cs: Added; contains AdviseFileAccessPattern()
+ (moved from UnixFile.cs).
+ * UnixDirectory.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixDirectoryInfo instead.
+ * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: Add GetCurrentDirectory(), SetCurrentDirectory().
+ * UnixFile.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixFileInfo, FileHandleOperations,
+ or UnixPipes instead.
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add ToStat() method.
+ * UnixGroup.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixGroupInfo instead.
+ * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Obsolete & Replace constructor, add GetMemberNames(),
+ GetLocalGroups().
+ * UnixPipes.cs: Added (type moved from UnixFile.cs).
+ * UnixStream.cs: AdviseFileAccessPattern() uses FileHandleOperations now.
+ * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Implement TryReadLink() to avoid constant buffer
+ re-sizing. Stevens states that the file size of the symlink is the number
+ of bytes needed to hold the symlink, so this should be faster.
+ * UnixUser.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixUserInfo instead.
+ * UnixUserInfo.cs: Obsolete & Replace constructor; add useful static members
+ from UnixUser such as GetLoginName(), GetLocalUsers(), etc.
+
+2005-10-27 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixEnvironment.cs: Add RealUser, RealGroup, EffectiveUser, EffectiveGroup
+ properties; [Obsolete] necessary methods and provide replacements.
+ * UnixStream.cs: Add OwnerUser(Id), OwnerGroup(Id) properties;
+ improve Stat handling.
+
+2005-10-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixEncoding.cs: Change EscapeByte to 0x0000, as suggested by Michal
+ Moskal.
+ * UnixPath.cs: Remove '\0' from InvalidPathChars, since U+0000 is now used
+ as the path escape character for marshaling purposes.
+
+2005-10-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Obsolete heap-related methods to have a Heap suffix
+ (AllocHeap, FreeHeap, etc.), and change StringToAlloc() to be
+ StringToHeap(). This creates a stronger name association between related
+ methods.
+
+2005-10-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixIOException.cs: Add (string) and (string, Exception) constructors to
+ silence FxCop; re-work logic so we lookup the error string at construction
+ time and use this as the message for the base class.
+
+2005-10-25 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs: Filenames need to be marshaled through the
+ FileNameMarshaler, which will encode/decode filenames with UnixEncoding.
+ * UnixEncoding.cs: Added (copied from
+ ../../corlib/System.Text/UTF8Encoding.cs); a hack to permit handling of
+ arbitrarily encoded filenames. It attempts to decode a byte[] array as
+ UTF-8, and if the decode fails it prefixes each byte with
+ UnixEncoding.EscapeByte (\uFFFF).
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Use UnixEncoding as the default encoding, and special-case
+ UnixEncoding to use Stdlib.strlen() for native string lengths.
+
+2005-10-21 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * FileAccessPattern.cs: Added
+ * UnixFile.cs, UnixStream.cs: Deprecate all the Advise* methods (lots!)
+ and replace with 6 methods which take a FileAccessPattern enum.
+
+2005-10-19 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * FileAccessPermissions.cs, FileSpecialAttributes.cs, FileTypes.cs: Added.
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixStream.cs: Replace the old Permission property
+ with 4 new properties: Protection (for the Native.FilePermissions value),
+ FileAccessPermissions (for rwxrwxrwx info), FileSpecialAttributes (for
+ set-user-id, set-group-id, sticky), and FileTypes (directory, socket...).
+ The new enumeration types have nicer CLS-compliant names.
+
+2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Fix GetIntXxBufferLength to require fewer
+ Marshal.ReadIntXx() calls; Fix PtrToString so that
+ ``"foo" == PtrToString (StringToAlloc("foo",enc),enc)'' is true for
+ "random" encodings.
+
+2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add OwnerUserId and OwnerGroupId properties.
+
+2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixDriveInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
+ UnixGroup.cs, UnixStream.cs, UnixUser.cs: Don't use SetLastError(), since
+ it's use is (1) incorrect, and (2) will be going away with the move to
+ Mono.Unix.Native.Syscall. Instead use the Native.Syscall.* APIs which
+ set errno sanely.
+
+2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
+ UnixStream.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs:
+ Start migrating uid/gid to long (from uint) for CLS compliance.
+ (Full migration must wait 'til after the next release as this would
+ require changes to existing members.)
+ * UnixEnvironment.cs: Above, and add RealUserId/RealGroupId and
+ EffectiveUserId/EffectiveGroupId.
+
+2005-10-14 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Catalog.cs: Create a constructor and mark it [Obsolete]. It will be made
+ private after the next release.
+ * UnixFile.cs, UnixStream.cs: Deal with Mono.Unix.Native type name changes.
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: [Obsolete] more members; Deal with Mono.Unix.Native
+ type name changes.
+ * Syscall.cs: Create maps for PathConf, SysConf, ConfStr again; fpathconf(),
+ pathconf(), and sysconf() should call Native.Syscall since the
+ MonoPosixHelper.so helpers have changed.
+
+2005-10-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: More/better StringToAlloc/PtrToString which take a
+ System.Text.Encoding instance for proper string marshaling.
+ - PtrToString(string,Encoding) is particularly tricky due to variable
+ length encodings.
+ - Fix StringToAlloc so that it works properly with UTF-16 encodings
+ (we need a terminating null 16-bit word, not a null byte).
+ - StringToAlloc overload for doing substrings.
+
+2005-10-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixStream.cs: Check for EROFS and EINVAL in Flush(). Snorp was getting
+ an exception when he created a UnixStream around a socket, because
+ sockets can't be flushed. It should be acceptable to create a UnixStream
+ around a socket, so don't throw an exception in this scenario.
+
+2005-10-06 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs UnixFile.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
+ UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixIOException.cs, UnixStream.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs:
+ API Review: Obsolete appropriate members and add appropriate overloads for
+ pending move to Mono.Unix.Native types.
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: API Review; add StringToAlloc().
+
+2005-09-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Exists shouldn't use access(2), as (1) Exists isn't
+ virtual, and (2) access(2) errors if you try to access(2) a symlink which
+ points nowhere. Use (l)stat(2) instead, via GetFileStatus(), as this lets
+ UnixSymbolicLinkInfo behave properly.
+ * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: The Contents property should return null if the
+ symlink target doesn't exist.
+
+2005-09-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Add [Map] to AccessMode and MmapProt, as the Mono.Unix.Native
+ replacements go by different names (AccessModes, MmapProts), but we need
+ to continue generating the mapping code for these types (backward compat).
+
+2005-09-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * CdeclFunction.cs: [Obsolete]d by Mono.Unix.Native.CdeclFunction.
+ * make-map.cs: Remove.
+ * Stdlib.cs: [Obsolete] the types; use the Mono.Unix.Native.* types instead.
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Add GC.KeepAlive statements to prevent premature GC's
+ (FxCop suggestion).
+ * Syscall.cs: Remove [Map] attribute from all types; [CLSCompliant(false)]
+ work; [Obsolete] all types and suggest using the Mono.Unix.Native.*
+ replacements; remove [IncludeAttribute] -- superseded by
+ Mono.Unix.Native/Syscall.cs's [HeaderAttribte] for CLS compliance.
+ * UnixConvert.cs: [Obsolete]d by Mono.Unix.Native.NativeConvert.
+ * UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs,
+ UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs,
+ UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs:
+ Add [CLSCompliant(false)] as necessary.
+ * UnixFile.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs:
+ [CLSCompliant(false)], addition of method overloads for [Obsolete]d types,
+ warn about changing return types.
+ * UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs: Add [CLSCompliant(false)] as necessary,
+ and warn about changing property types.
+

+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Cache delegates passed to Stdlib.signal() so that they survive
+ garbage collections. Delegates can be removed by calling Stdlib.signal()
+ again with one of the Stdlib.SIG_* values (or the original return value of
+ Stdlib.signal()).
+ * UnixUser.cs, UnixGroup.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs: Clarify "Id" (int) vs.
+ "Name" (string) differences by always using a Id or Name suffix.
+
+2005-07-01 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: The entire extended attribute API now goes through MPH, to
+ be shared between both Linux's and FreeBSD's similar EA implementations.
+
+2005-06-29 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
+
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Only flush if we do not own the handle, as
+ fclose does a flush internally.
+
+2005-06-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixEnvironment: Add User, Login properties.
+ * Syscall.cs: Add locking around cuserid, crypt, encrypt, getlogin.
+
+2005-06-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: SyslogFacility shouldn't be [Flags] either. Sigh.
+ Thanks to Vorobiev Maksim for pointing this out.
+ * make-map.cs: Don't generate conversion code for [Obsolete] enum members.
+ This assumes that (1) the enum member's value is invalid, or (2) a
+ corrected member with the same value exists. This fix allows us to
+ obsolete invalid members (instead of removing them) without screwing up
+ the generated code -- consider LOG_USRE, the mis-spelling of LOG_USER.
+ Since SyslogFacility was (incorrectly) a [Flags] enum, since both LOG_USER
+ and LOG_USRE had the same value, we'd get a EINVAL error trying to convert
+ a valid value, since LOG_USRE would exist, would be checked for, and the
+ check would succeed (since it had the same value as LOG_USER).
+ This change allows us to be slightly more permissive with versioning.
+
+2005-06-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: correct value of LOG_CRON (it shouldn't be identical to
+ LOG_UUCP). SyslogLevel shouldn't have [Flags]. Move LOG_USER to be
+ before LOG_USRE so that the generated map code doesn't return EINVAL when
+ LOG_USER is specified.
+
+2005-06-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: s/LOG_USRE/LOG_USER/. Fixes #75274.
+ Thanks to Martin Honermeyer.
+
+2005-06-09 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * make-map.cs: Look for [Obsolete] members, and mark the UnixConvert
+ conversion functions with the same [Obsolete] message. This should permit
+ more graceful deprecation of enumerations in the future (rather than just
+ API breaks).
+
+2005-06-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Add execvp(2). (This should have been added with the other
+ exec(2) additions...).
+
+2005-06-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Update comment with correct exception type.
+ * UnixConvert.cs: Rename ToFilePermissions(string) to
+ FromOctalPermissionString; Add ToOctalPermissionString,
+ FromUnixPermissionString, ToUnixPermissionString.
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove ErrorMarshal.HaveStrerror_r and
+ UnixMarshal.IsErrorDescriptionThreadSafe. strerror(3) is now thread-safe
+ (from managed code, at least). Update comment.
+
+2005-06-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Don't use lstat(2), use stat(2). This fits with
+ expectations better -- if you create a UnixFileInfo() on a symlink, you
+ want to get the target's information, not the symlink's info. Add
+ GetFileStatus so UnixSymbolicLinkInfo can override this behavior.
+ * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Implement GetFileStatus() (which calls lstat(2)).
+
+2005-06-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs: Document naming conventions.
+
+2005-06-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * make-map.cs: Change automatic "ifdef HAVE_<header>" support prefix to
+ "ah:" from ">". I hadn't known about ">", and "ah:" is (somewhat) more
+ obvious.
+ * Syscall.cs: Change IncludeAttribute to put all headers/defines one/line.
+ It's easier to read this way. Add "ah:sys/xattr.h" to the headers.
+
+2005-06-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Add sanity checking to snprintf(3) to avoid buffer overflows.
+
+2005-06-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Remove FilePosition property & replace with
+ SaveFilePosition/RestoreFilePosition methods. Since FilePosition has a
+ finalizer, it's not right to have implicitly created instances.
+ * Stdlib.cs:
+ - FilePosition: GC.SuppressFinalize() should be last in Dispose()
+ (following .NET guidelines).
+ - Syscall: Add locking around functions most likely to be thread unsafe.
+ This should provide some level of thread-safety to managed code.
+ * Syscall.cs: Add locking around functions most likely to be thread unsafe;
+ add mkstemp(3) export.
+ * UnixEnvironment.cs: GetUserShells should be atomic (from managed code).
+ * UnixGroup.cs: GetLocalGroups should be atomic (from managed code).
+ * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Add ToGroup() method to retrieve underlying Group info.
+ * UnixUser.cs: GetLocalUsers should be atomic (from managed code).
+ * UnixUserInfo.cs: Add ToPasswd () method to retrieve underlying Passwd info.
+ * UnixDriveInfo.cs: GetDrives should be atomic (from managed code).
+
+2005-05-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Add comment for atexit(3) so I don't try to add it.
+ * Syscall.cs: Add fcntl(2) overload which takes DirectoryNotifyFlags (so
+ that *something* accepts a DirectoryNotifyFlags); Fix IncludeAttribute
+ header files (">sys/poll.h" doesn't exist);
+ Add additional <sys/mman.h> functions mmap, munmap, msync, mlock, munlock,
+ mlockall, munlockall, mremap, mincore, remap_file_pages.
+ * UnixConvert.cs: Add conversion functions for MmapFlags, MmapProt, MsyncFlags,
+ MlockallFlags, MremapFlags.
+
+2005-05-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs: Rename LockFlags to LockfCommand. This is a more
+ consistent naming, and it's more correct (they weren't flags in the first place).
+
+2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * Stdlib.cs: Correct Mono_Posix_Stdlib_InvokeSignalHandler export.
+
+2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * make-map.cs: Process the Mono.Posix namespace as well as Mono.Unix; add
+ mapping for Boolean => int for native type conversion.
+
+2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * make-map.cs: Add a MphPrototypeFileGenerator, which looks for DllImport
+ methods across all types and generates a C header file declaration for
+ those methods. This allows us to ensure consistency between
+ Mono.Posix.dll and MonoPosixHelper.so. Rename WrapperFileGenerator to
+ ConvertFileGenerator (it generates UnixConvert).
+ * MapAttribute.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs: Make these internal -- there's no
+ reason for external users to even know these exist.
+ * StdioFileStream.cs: Move GC.SuppressFinalize call to be last Dispose()
+ call. This follows current design guidelines, and allows an exception to
+ be thrown from Dispose() without un-registering the finalizer.
+ * Syscall.cs: Change method declarations to match MonoPosixHelper, etc.
+ - posix_fallocate(P) takes a size_t
+ - mis-spelled settimeofday(2), sethostname(2)
+ - exec(2) can be public; it's safe to call
+ - change lseek(2) so int's are passed to MonoPosixHelper.so, not shorts
+ - We can't allow two incompatible prototypes to exist (since C allows
+ only one prototype, and we're cross-checking prototypes now). Change
+ utime(2) so only one prototype is needed.
+ * UnixMarshal.cs: ErrorMarshal.ErrorTranslator and ErrorMarshal.Translate
+ shouldn't be public; make them internal.
+ * UnixStream.cs: Remove `unsafe` code block when a "safe" alternative works;
+ Close() should also call GC.SuppressFinalize.
+
+2005-05-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
+
+ * 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.
+
