# Change Log
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
This project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](http://semver.org/).
## [Unreleased] - ReleaseDate
### Added
- Added `ptrace::seize()`: similar to `attach()` on Linux
but with better-defined semantics.
(#[1154](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1154))
- Added `Signal::as_str()`: returns signal name as `&'static str`
(#[1138](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1138))
- Added `posix_fallocate`.
([#1105](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1105))
- Implemented `Default` for `FdSet`
([#1107](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1107))
- Added `NixPath::is_empty`.
([#1107](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1107))
- Added `mkfifoat`
([#1133](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1133))
- Added `User::from_uid`, `User::from_name`, `User::from_gid` and
`Group::from_name`,
([#1139](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1139))
- Added `linkat`
([#1101](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1101))
- Added `sched_getaffinity`.
([#1148](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1148))
- Added optional `Signal` argument to `ptrace::{detach, syscall}` for signal
injection. ([#1083](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1083))
### Changed
- `sys::termios::BaudRate` now implements `TryFrom<speed_t>` instead of
`From<speed_t>`. The old `From` implementation would panic on failure.
([#1159](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1159))
- `sys::socket::recvmsg` now takes a plain `Vec` instead of a `CmsgBuffer`
implementor. If you were already using `cmsg_space!`, then you needn't worry.
([#1156](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1156))
- `sys::socket::recvfrom` now returns
`Result<(usize, Option<SockAddr>)>` instead of `Result<(usize, SockAddr)>`.
([#1145](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1145))
- `Signal::from_c_int` has been replaced by `Signal::try_from`
([#1113](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1113))
- Changed `readlink` and `readlinkat` to return `OsString`
([#1109](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1109))
```rust
# use nix::fcntl::{readlink, readlinkat};
// the buffer argument of `readlink` and `readlinkat` has been removed,
// and the return value is now an owned type (`OsString`).
// Existing code can be updated by removing the buffer argument
// and removing any clone or similar operation on the output
// old code `readlink(&path, &mut buf)` can be replaced with the following
let _: OsString = readlink(&path);
// old code `readlinkat(dirfd, &path, &mut buf)` can be replaced with the following
let _: OsString = readlinkat(dirfd, &path);
```
- Minimum supported Rust version is now 1.36.0.
([#1108](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1108))
- `Ipv4Addr::octets`, `Ipv4Addr::to_std`, `Error::as_errno`,
`ForkResult::is_child`, `ForkResult::is_parent`, `Gid::as_raw`,
`Uid::is_root`, `Uid::as_raw`, `Pid::as_raw`, and `PollFd::revents` now take
`self` by value.
([#1107](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1107))
- Type `&CString` for parameters of `exec(v|ve|vp|vpe|veat)` are changed to `&CStr`.
([#1121](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1121))
### Fixed
- Fix length of abstract socket addresses
([#1120](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1120))
- Fix initialization of msghdr in recvmsg/sendmsg when built with musl
([#1136](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1136))

([#1079](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1079))
- Implemented `Clone`, `Copy`, `Debug`, `Eq`, `Hash`, and `PartialEq` for most
types that support them. ([#1035](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1035))
- Added `copy_file_range` wrapper
([#1069](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1069))
- Add `mkdirat`.
([#1084](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1084))
- Add `posix_fadvise`.
([#1089](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1089))

([#1077](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1077))
- Minimum supported Rust version is now 1.31.0
([#1035](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1035))
([#1095](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1095))

([#928](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/928))
### Fixed
- Enabled `sched_yield` for all nix hosts.
([#1090](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1090))
### Removed
## [0.14.1] - 2019-06-06
### Added
- Macros exported by `nix` may now be imported via `use` on the Rust 2018
edition without importing helper macros on Linux targets.
([#1066](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1066))
For example, in Rust 2018, the `ioctl_read_bad!` macro can now be imported
without importing the `convert_ioctl_res!` macro.
```rust
use nix::ioctl_read_bad;
ioctl_read_bad!(tcgets, libc::TCGETS, libc::termios);
```
### Changed
- Changed some public types from reexports of libc types like `uint32_t` to the
native equivalents like `u32.`
([#1072](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1072/commits))
### Fixed
- Fix the build on Android and Linux/mips with recent versions of libc.
([#1072](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1072/commits))
### Removed
## [0.14.0] - 2019-05-21
### Added
- Add IP_RECVIF & IP_RECVDSTADDR. Enable IP_PKTINFO and IP6_PKTINFO on netbsd/openbsd.
([#1002](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1002))
- Added `inotify_init1`, `inotify_add_watch` and `inotify_rm_watch` wrappers for
Android and Linux. ([#1016](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1016))
- Add `ALG_SET_IV`, `ALG_SET_OP` and `ALG_SET_AEAD_ASSOCLEN` control messages and `AF_ALG`
socket types on Linux and Android ([#1031](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1031))
- Add killpg
([#1034](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1034))
- Added ENOTSUP errno support for Linux and Android.
([#969](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/969))
- Add several errno constants from OpenBSD 6.2
([#1036](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1036))
- Added `from_std` and `to_std` methods for `sys::socket::IpAddr`
([#1043](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1043))
- Added `nix::unistd:seteuid` and `nix::unistd::setegid` for those platforms that do
not support `setresuid` nor `setresgid` respectively.
([#1044](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1044))
- Added a `access` wrapper
([#1045](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1045))
- Add `forkpty`
([#1042](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1042))
- Add `sched_yield`
([#1050](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1050))
### Changed
- `PollFd` event flags renamed to `PollFlags` ([#1024](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1024/))
- `recvmsg` now returns an Iterator over `ControlMessageOwned` objects rather
than `ControlMessage` objects. This is sadly not backwards-compatible. Fix
code like this:
```rust
if let ControlMessage::ScmRights(&fds) = cmsg {
```
By replacing it with code like this:
```rust
if let ControlMessageOwned::ScmRights(fds) = cmsg {
```
([#1020](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1020))
- Replaced `CmsgSpace` with the `cmsg_space` macro.
([#1020](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1020))
### Fixed
- Fixed multiple bugs when using `sendmsg` and `recvmsg` with ancillary control messages
([#1020](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1020))
- Macros exported by `nix` may now be imported via `use` on the Rust 2018
edition without importing helper macros for BSD targets.
([#1041](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1041))
For example, in Rust 2018, the `ioctl_read_bad!` macro can now be imported
without importing the `convert_ioctl_res!` macro.
```rust
use nix::ioctl_read_bad;
ioctl_read_bad!(tcgets, libc::TCGETS, libc::termios);
```
### Removed
- `Daemon`, `NOTE_REAP`, and `NOTE_EXIT_REPARENTED` are now deprecated on OSX
and iOS.
([#1033](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1033))
- `PTRACE_GETREGS`, `PTRACE_SETREGS`, `PTRACE_GETFPREGS`, and

([#410](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/410))
- Added `setresuid` and `setresgid` for Linux in `::nix::unistd`
([#448](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/448))
- Added `getpgid` in `::nix::unistd`
([#433](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/433))
- Added `tcgetpgrp` and `tcsetpgrp` in `::nix::unistd`
([#451](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/451))
- Added `CLONE_NEWCGROUP` in `::nix::sched`
([#457](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/457))
- Added `getpgrp` in `::nix::unistd`
([#491](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/491))
- Added `fchdir` in `::nix::unistd`
([#497](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/497))
- Added `major` and `minor` in `::nix::sys::stat` for decomposing `dev_t`
([#508](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/508))
- Fixed the style of many bitflags and use `libc` in more places.
([#503](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/503))
- Added `ppoll` in `::nix::poll`
([#520](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/520))
- Added support for getting and setting pipe size with fcntl(2) on Linux
([#540](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/540))
### Changed
- `::nix::sys::termios::{cfgetispeed, cfsetispeed, cfgetospeed, cfsetospeed}`
switched to use `BaudRate` enum from `speed_t`.
([#518](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/518))
- `epoll_ctl` now could accept None as argument `event`
when op is `EpollOp::EpollCtlDel`.
([#480](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/480))
- Removed the `bad` keyword from the `ioctl!` macro
([#478](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/478))
- Changed `TimeVal` into an opaque Newtype
([#475](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/475))
- `kill`'s signature, defined in `::nix::sys::signal`, changed, so that the
signal parameter has type `T: Into<Option<Signal>>`. `None` as an argument
for that parameter will result in a 0 passed to libc's `kill`, while a
`Some`-argument will result in the previous behavior for the contained
`Signal`.
([#445](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/445))
- The minimum supported version of rustc is now 1.7.0.
([#444](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/444))
- Changed `KEvent` to an opaque structure that may only be modified by its
constructor and the `ev_set` method.
([#415](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/415))
([#442](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/442))
([#463](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/463))
- `pipe2` now calls `libc::pipe2` where available. Previously it was emulated
using `pipe`, which meant that setting `O_CLOEXEC` was not atomic.
([#427](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/427))
- Renamed `EpollEventKind` to `EpollFlags` in `::nix::sys::epoll` in order for
it to conform with our conventions.
([#410](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/410))
- `EpollEvent` in `::nix::sys::epoll` is now an opaque proxy for
`::libc::epoll_event`. The formerly public field `events` is now be read-only
accessible with the new method `events()` of `EpollEvent`. Instances of
`EpollEvent` can be constructed using the new method `new()` of EpollEvent.
([#410](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/410))
- `SigFlags` in `::nix::sys::signal` has be renamed to `SigmaskHow` and its type
has changed from `bitflags` to `enum` in order to conform to our conventions.
([#460](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/460))
- `sethostname` now takes a `&str` instead of a `&[u8]` as this provides an API
that makes more sense in normal, correct usage of the API.
- `gethostname` previously did not expose the actual length of the hostname
written from the underlying system call at all. This has been updated to
return a `&CStr` within the provided buffer that is always properly
NUL-terminated (this is not guaranteed by the call with all platforms/libc
implementations).
- Exposed all fcntl(2) operations at the module level, so they can be
imported direclty instead of via `FcntlArg` enum.
([#541](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/541))
### Fixed
- Fixed multiple issues with Unix domain sockets on non-Linux OSes
([#474](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/415))
- Fixed using kqueue with `EVFILT_USER` on FreeBSD
([#415](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/415))
- Fixed the build on FreeBSD, and fixed the getsockopt, sendmsg, and recvmsg
functions on that same OS.
([#397](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/397))
- Fixed an off-by-one bug in `UnixAddr::new_abstract` in `::nix::sys::socket`.
([#429](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/429))
- Fixed clone passing a potentially unaligned stack.
([#490](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/490))
- Fixed mkdev not creating a `dev_t` the same way as libc.
([#508](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/508))

targets.
([#379](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/379))
- Added new module `::nix::sys::reboot` with enumeration `RebootMode` and
functions `reboot` and `set_cad_enabled`. Currently for _linux_ only.
([#386](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/386))
- `FdSet` in `::nix::sys::select` now also implements `Clone`.
([#405](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/405))

([#407](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/407))
- Added `CpuSet::unset` in `::nix::sched`.
([#402](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/402))
- Added constructor method `new()` to `PollFd` in `::nix::poll`, in order to
allow creation of objects, after removing public access to members.
([#399](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/399))
- Added method `revents()` to `PollFd` in `::nix::poll`, in order to provide
read access to formerly public member `revents`.
([#399](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/399))
- Added `MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC` to `MsgFlags` in `::nix::sys::socket` for _linux_ only.
([#422](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/422))
### Changed
- Replaced the reexported integer constants for signals by the enumeration
`Signal` in `::nix::sys::signal`.
([#362](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/362))
- Renamed `EventFdFlag` to `EfdFlags` in `::nix::sys::eventfd`.
([#383](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/383))
- Changed the result types of `CpuSet::is_set` and `CpuSet::set` in
`::nix::sched` to `Result<bool>` and `Result<()>`, respectively. They now
return `EINVAL`, if an invalid argument for the `field` parameter is passed.
([#402](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/402))
- `MqAttr` in `::nix::mqueue` is now an opaque proxy for `::libc::mq_attr`,
which has the same structure as the old `MqAttr`. The field `mq_flags` of
`::libc::mq_attr` is readable using the new method `flags()` of `MqAttr`.
`MqAttr` also no longer implements `Debug`.
([#392](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/392))
- The parameter `msq_prio` of `mq_receive` with type `u32` in `::nix::mqueue`
was replaced by a parameter named `msg_prio` with type `&mut u32`, so that
the message priority can be obtained by the caller.
([#392](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/392))
- The type alias `MQd` in `::nix::queue` was replaced by the type alias
`libc::mqd_t`, both of which are aliases for the same type.
([#392](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/392))
### Removed
- Type alias `SigNum` from `::nix::sys::signal`.
([#362](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/362))
- Type alias `CpuMask` from `::nix::shed`.

`revents()`.
([#399](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/399))
### Fixed
- Fixed the build problem for NetBSD (Note, that we currently do not support
it, so it might already be broken again).
([#389](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/389))
- Fixed the build on FreeBSD, and fixed the getsockopt, sendmsg, and recvmsg
functions on that same OS.
([#397](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/397))
