Revision history for Perl extension Proc::ProcessTable.
0.01 Mon Jun 8 11:37:47 1998
- original version; created by h2xs 1.18
0.03 Sun Jul 26 09:07:50 1998
- added argument to va_end to make linux-ppc work
0.04 Fri Aug 14 22:51:31 1998
- preliminary pre-alpha solaris support
0.05 Wed Dec 9 18:47:39 1998
- fixed minor compilation problems for solaris. Changed rss to
bytes on linux for consistency with solaris; also added "time"
and "ctime" fields to linux for consistency. Updated
documentation in Process.pm. Folded in AIX port by David
Paquet <david-paquet@usa.net>.
0.06 Wed Dec 9 23:42:05 1998
- added HPUX port by Mike Romberg <romberg@fsl.noaa.gov>.
0.07 Wed Jan 6 14:57:04 1999
- added FreeBSD port by Slaven Rezic <eserte@cs.tu-berlin.de>.
0.08 Thu Feb 4 00:35:53 1999
- Fixed bug in solaris hints file that was looking for a
version of solaris returned by "uname -r" as > 2.5, when
"uname -r" returns the "SunOS" version of 5.5. Fixed bug in
linux module in which only the first field of the command line
was getting passed in cmndline attribute.
0.09 Fri Feb 19 23:23:53 1999
- Fixed bug in Linux.c, fopen() called without corresponding
fclose. Added empty DESTROY subs to ProcessTable.pm and
Process.pm to fix occasional problems with mod_perl. Changed
all instances of sv_undef in ProcessTable.xs to PL_sv_undef to
comply with new standard.
0.10 Sat Feb 20 11:29:35 1999
- Added code to ProcessTable.xs to check perl patchlevel
version and use either PL_sv_undef or sv_undef since lots of
people are still using older versions of perl.
0.11 Sat Mar 6 19:04:39 1999
- Fixed code that checked perl patchlevel version to check
directly for definition of PL_sv_undef and define it as
sv_undef if it's not there, since it's not clear what
patchlevel we need to check for. Also fixed embarrassing and
unnecessary call to close() a string in Solaris.c
0.12 Sun Mar 21 10:53:56 1999
- Hopefully the final fix for the sv_undef buglet.
0.14 Fri May 14 06:30:15 1999
- Added port for IRIX from W. Phillip Moore <wpm@ms.com> in
0.13, but forgot to add files to MANIFEST and edit Changes
(Duh). W. Phillip Moore's port also included a minor patch for
Solaris to get the page size from the system.
0.15 Tue Jun 1 21:33:16 1999
- Added patch from Peter ? <hooft@natlab.research.philips.com>
for IRIX version differences. There seems to be a lot of IRIX
out there.
0.16 Mon Aug 9 22:59:46 1999
- Added nanosecond Solaris patch from Rolf Petter Halle
<rph@nextel.no>. Added port for dec_osf from Bernhard
Schmalhofer <Bernhard.Schmalhofer@fazi.de>, which included new
version of test code as well. Added bsdi port from Sean Eskins
<sean@gilasoft.com>.
0.17 Thu Aug 19 10:57:16 1999
- Lost connection to ISP during upload to PAUSE, and PAUSE
won't let me reload it so I have to increment the version
number. Kind of annoying.
0.18 Thu Aug 19 10:57:16 1999
- Fixed bug (at least for linux) in Makefile.PL that was
causing ProcessTable.xs not to be converted to ProcessTable.c;
this was carelessly introduced by me with integration of the
port to dec_osf. Added port for netbsd from Peter Reich
<pr@alles.prima.de>.
0.19 Mon Aug 30 00:22:02 1999
- Reinstated 'OBJECT' argument in WriteMakefile in Makefile.PL
since it was breaking the build on dec-osf, but this time with
explicit object files to look for which seems to work, at
least under Linux. Why this should be necessary is
unclear. Added "fname" field to HPUX (was "cmd") for
consistency with other ports and for new test. Added very
basic "README.hpux". Added check in ProcessTable.pm to prune
search tree for unreadable directories when finding TTY list;
this was causing spurious errors during build on dec_osf
since some directories under /dev are readable only by root.
0.20 Wed Sep 8 22:27:28 1999
- Added "fields" method to module to return list of fields
supported for the current architecture. This is implemented in
a slightly kludgy way, since it needs to call the table method
if the table method hasn't been called before, since only the
table method knows the names of the fields. Also changed the
test code to dump all the fields/values available for the
current process table, instead of just dumping pids and
"fname" which isn't supported on all architectures (though it
should be). Added "example.pl" file which contains the same
code.
0.21 Fri Sep 10 12:32:13 1999
- Bug fix; new "fields" method was crapping out on everything
except Linux-Intel.
0.22 Tue Oct 5 07:47:54 1999
- Bug fix for Solaris; nanosecond process times are only
available on 2.6 (and above?); this was causing the module to
dump core on earlier systems. Also, size and rss appear to be
in kilobytes, not pages in 2.6 and above (they are in pages in
the struct prpsinfo in < 2.6, but also available directly as
bytes).
0.23 Mon Nov 1 08:32:54 1999
- Added patch from Dave Alden <alden@math.ohio-state.edu> for
solaris "nice" and "onproc" fields.
0.24 Thu Jan 20 08:00:30 2000
- Added patches from Noel Paul <NoelP@mincom.com> for dec_osf
pctcpu and pctmem, and for IRIX for pctmem.
0.25 Thu Feb 3 11:20:27 2000
- Added patch from F. Buirey <f.buirey@saprr.fr> for AIX SMP.
0.26 Fri Feb 11 16:43:48 2000
- Added Proc::Killall from Aaraon Sherman <ajs@ajs.com>.
0.27 Thu Jun 29 08:27:23 2000
- Added patch for converting jiffies to microseconds in linux
from Philip Gwyn <fil@pied.nu>. Added patch from Slaven Rezic
<eserte@cs.tu-berlin.de> for FreeBSD and to make Storable
optional.
0.28 Mon Aug 14 16:31:43 MYT 2000
- Patch from Slaven Rezic <eserte@cs.tu-berlin.de> to make
test script -w clean.
0.29 Tue Jan 9 07:36:13 EST 2001
- Patch from Wolfgang Friebel <Wolfgang.Friebel@desy.de> for
os/HPUX.c to make the time method return useful values. Patch
from Adrian Phillips <tandem@dnmi.no> to fix AIX cmndline
field. Patch from Tryggvi Farestveit <tryggvi@firmanet.is> to
fix bug in cmndline under Linux. Killfam.pm module from
Steve Lidie <sol0@Lehigh.EDU>.
0.30 Sun Mar 4 05:05:26 EST 2001
- Patch from David Good <dgood@stratasource.com> for 32-bit
HPUX 11.0 support via the 64-bit interface. Port to Unixware
7.x from Martin Lucina <mato@catalyst.net.nz>. Upgraded status
to beta :)
0.31 Fri Jun 1 08:27:03 EDT 2001
- Removed bogus test code line from os/Linux.c that was
opening "/tmp/tedddi".
0.32 Sun Aug 19 04:45:25 EDT 2001
-SunOS port from Shawn Clifford <shawn.a.clifford@lmco.com>.
Patch from Thomas Linden <tom@daemon.de> for additional Linux
fields. Patch for bsdi from Nicolas Belan <belan@matranet.com>
to add cmndline.
0.33 Wed Oct 10 15:50:17 EDT 2001
-Fixed Solaris large file environment problem (by turning off
large file environment CCFLAGS!). Patches from Chris Adams
<cmadams@hiwaay.net> for TTYs with device number(s) zero and
Digital Unix table() call to read processes. Added
README.taint for workarounds for perl -T. Changed umask for
644 permissions for /tmp/TTYDEVS.
0.34 Sun Feb 24 21:55:07 EST 2002
-Corrected documentation type pointed out by Marcus Crafter
<crafterm@osa.de>. Fix for JIFFIES_TO_MICROSECONDS potential
int overflow on linux from Stephen Pillinger
<S.M.Pillinger@cs.bham.ac.uk>. Patch for File::Find routine
on AIX (broken POSIX?) from H.Merijn Brand
<h.m.brand@hccnet.nl>. Big linux code cleanup patch from
Anthony Higa <anthony@squareusa.com>; I *think* this also
fixes the linux-ppc problem reported by Marcus Crafter.
0.35 Mon Jul 1 11:24:43 EDT 2002
-Patch from Thomas Glanzmann <sithglan@stud.uni-erlangen.de>
to fix starttime overflow bug on linux. This should also fix
multiprocessor starttime bugs. He says there is another
overflow after 25 days of uptime though :(
Nearly identical patches from Doug Lewis
<dlewis@exchange.webmd.net> and Jan L. Peterson
<jlp@flipdog.com> to fix taint problem. Patch from Peter van
Hooft <hooft@natlab.research.philips.com> to allow non-root
users to list processes on IRIX.
