CHANGES.md.html

v3.1.1 (2022-04-13)

  • Remove the build directive on dune dependency (#39 @CraigFE)

  • Fix compilaion, use OCaml 4.08 as lower bound, cstruct 6.0.0 compatibility (#40 @hannesm)

v3.1.0 (2019-01-12)

  • Port build from jbuilder to Dune (@avsm).

  • Update opam metadata to the 2.0 format (@avsm).

  • Removed deprecated use of Lwt_sequence and depend on the equivalent lwt-dllist package instead (@avsm)

  • Use noalloc attribute in external declarations (@avsm)

  • Fix ocamldoc formatting with odoc (@avsm)

  • Travis: test up to OCaml 4.07 (@avsm)

3.0.1 (2018-07-09)

  • Use modern ppx_cstruct to build.

3.0.0 (2017-11-05)

  • Update to use bytes in the read and write, to work with OCaml 4.06 and -safe-string

2.0.1 (2017-06-07)

  • Don't force clients to link against cstruct.ppx: this is the support code for the PPX rewriter itself, and brings in the compiler-libs package etc.

2.0.0 (2017-05-28)

  • Refactor the ocamlfind packages and opam packages into

    • shared-memory-ring: all the portable code including the -xen definitions

    • shared-memory-ring-lwt: the old shared-memory-ring.lwt

1.3.0 (2015-03-19)

  • Use centralised Travis scripts and modernise OPAM file.

  • Add Windows support

1.2.0 (2016-03-14)

  • opam: ounit is a test dependency

  • add LICENSE file

  • remove dependency on cstruct.syntax: we use cstruct.ppx instead Note: this means we need OCaml 4.02

  • remove dependency on lwt.syntax

1.1.1 (2015-01-09)

  • add profiling/tracing support

  • add a "Front.wait_for_free" function to wait for n free slots

  • add opam file

1.1.0 (2014-07-16)

  • [xen]: add a prepare/commit interface to control when xenstore/console data is consumed

  • [xen]: add read and write to complement unsafe_read and unsafe_write

1.0.0 (2013-12-07):

  • Standardize indentation by running through ocp-indent.

  • Improve ocamldoc for Ring module.

0.4.3 (2013-10-05):

  • Add Travis CI scripts.

  • Fix ARMv5 compilation.

0.4.2 (2013-10-05):

  • Properly initialise the shared event counters. This bug prevented the backend from notifying the frontend, causing deadlock.

0.4.1 (2013-07-25):

  • Fix a ring corruption issue due to multi-byte stores and loads

0.4.0 (2013-04-30):

  • Fix a ring corruption issue which could lead to dropped network packets or stalled disks

  • Change ring API to improve debug messages

0.3.1 (2013-03-15):

  • Fix unsigned comparisons in console/xenstore ring handling

0.3.0 (2013-02-22):

  • Add support for ARM: each architecture requires support for memory barrier primitives

  • For the xenstore-style rings, apply the memory barriers in the same way as the original xen implementation

0.2.0 (2012-02-08):

  • Add Lwt_ring write and push functions that separate updates and notification, to support fragment-based protocols.

  • Improve diagnostics support.

0.1.0 (2012-12-20):

  • Initial public release.

  • Update to new cstruct 0.6.0 API

  • [xen] support for suspend and resume

  • [xen] subpackages for console, xenstore rings

  • [xen] fix data-loss bug in console, xenstore rings where a write was silently truncated when the ring was full

  • Everything is pure OCaml except assembly for memory barriers and some unit tests
