2021-02-20	pty: Make forkpty() unsafe	Tavian Barnes
	After the child returns from a fork() of a multi-threaded process, it is undefined behaviour to call non-async-signal-safe functions according to POSIX. Since forkpty() is implemented in terms of fork(), those restrictions should apply to it too.
2020-08-11	use subordinate terminal device for termios calls	Joshua M. Clulow
	The pseudo-terminal device handling tests in some places make tcgetattr(3C) and tcsetattr(3C) calls using the control/manager file descriptor rather than the subordinate terminal descriptor. This works on some systems, but not all; others such as illumos (and presumably Solaris) are more strict and require the termios requests be made against the terminal descriptor only.

2020-04-21	impl io::{Read,Write} for PtyMaster	Josh Stone
	`PtyMaster` acts like an owned file descriptor, even closing on `Drop`. Implementing `io::Read` and `io::Write` lets it be used directly in standard I/O operations.
2019-09-19	Where relevant, replace equality checks in assert! with assert_eq!	Xavier L'Heureux
	`assert_eq!` gives more debug info when the test fails by default than `assert!`. This should help make debugging easier.
2019-04-23	pty: Add forkpty	Kevin Kuehler

2018-09-05	Replace allow unused directive with _ prefix	Pascal Bach

2017-12-20	Add backticks to types in doccomments	Bryant Mairs

2017-12-20	Use write_all instead of write	Bryant Mairs
	Several tests make the assumption that all data is written, which is not guaranteed with write(), so use write_all() instead.
2017-12-02	Upgrade to Bitflags 1.0	Bryant Mairs
	The libc_bitflags! macro was replaced with a non-recursive one supporting only public structs. I could not figure out how to make the old macro work with the upgrade, so I reworked part of the bitflags! macro directly to suit our needs, much as the original recursive macro was made. There are no uses of this macro for non-public structs, so this is not a problem for internal code.
2017-08-24	Mark and document pty::ptsname() as unsafe	Nelson Chen
	`ptsname()` mutates global variables and mutating global variables is always considered `unsafe` by Rust. Reference: https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/742#issuecomment-324385919
2017-07-19	Fix thread safety issues in pty and termios tests	Alan Somers
	ptsname(3) returns a pointer to a global variable, so it isn't thread-safe. Protect it with a mutex.
2017-07-15	PtyMaster::drop should panic on EBADF	Alan Somers
	Also, document the double-close risk with unistd::close Fixes #659
2017-07-10	Use libc types for termios	Bryant Mairs
	This also removes the incorrect TCSASOFT definition as an enum type because it's actually a bitfield.
2017-07-09	Fix double close bugs in test_lseek and test_lseek64	Alan Somers
	std::fs::File closes the underlying file descriptor on Drop, without checking for errors. test_lseek and test_lseek64 also manually close the file descriptor. That works for single threaded test runs. But for multithreaded runs, it causes EBADF errors in other tests. Fix the tests by consuming the File with into_raw_fd(), so its drop method will never be called. Also, fix a potential short read bug in the same tests.
2017-07-01	Handle short reads in pty tests	Alan Somers
	Some pty tests would fail intermittently because read(2) occasionally returns less data than requested.
2017-06-12	Add openpty()	Kelvin Ly

2017-05-16	Add various pty functions	Bryant Mairs
