A list of changes is not available unfortunately. But the update seems
to prevent crashes with a message like this one:
rtorrent: Read past initial payload after incoming encrypted handshake
1.) Set minimum required GCC version to 4.1.3 because that is what has
been tested. Based on the bug-report it also seems that GCC 4.0.1
doesn't work.
2.) GCC 4.1.3 (as distributed with NetBSD 5.*) works fine under
NetBSD/macppc as reported by Matthias Kretschmer on IRCnet.
So don't insist on GCC 4.2.1 for this platform. This fixes seems
to fix the build as the GCC 4.4.6 package doesn't build for
this platform.
to version 0.8.9. Changes since version 0.12.6 respectively 0.8.6:
- Added multithreading support for XMLRPC calls. Sponsored by Xirvik.
- Discard dht cache if it is corrupt, instead of killing rtorrent.
- Better handling of resume after crash/reboot alliviating the need to
full hash checks. Sponsored by anonymous source.
- Added support for Linux's fallocate and Darwin's
fcntl(...,F_PREALLOCATE,...) to preallocate files by default. The
'system.file_allocate' setting will now only be used to indicate you
want posix_fallocate called, which may block while it zeros out the
file manually.
- Added 'event.download.hash_failed' and 'event.download.hash_final_failed'.
- Cleaning up command names. The deprecated commands will be redirected.
- Renamed 'system.method.*' to 'method.*'.
- Added 'system.files.{opened,closed,failed}_counter' commands.
- Added xmlrpc calls for peer snubbed, banned and disconnect.
- Added '-D' flag which turns of redirects for deprecated commands.
Use this to ensure your scripts/webui's will be compatible with future
releases.
- Added separate '-I' and '-K' switches for command redirects, the
former is for testing rtorrent code, the latter for webui's.
- Added a static_map implementation based on Josef's patches.
- Commited the DHT changes from dht-pex-static_map.diff with changes
so it works with the modified static_map implementation.
- Applied the magnet-uri patch.
- Don't install the out-of-date man page.
- Added 'execute.*.bg' commands for non-blocking calls. Always returns 0.
- Added support for prioritizing first/last chunk of files matching
specified patterns. Default:
file.prioritize_toc.set=0
file.prioritize_toc.first.set = {*.avi,*.mp4,*.mkv,*.gz}
file.prioritize_toc.last.set = {*.zip}
- Added 'method.rlookup' and 'method.rlookup.clear' commands for looking
up the event handlers holding a specified key, and set views to support
rlookup.
- Added 'd.timestamp.finished' that is set when a downloading torrent
completes. For torrents that only seed it remains '0'.
- Added 'elapsed.{less,greater}' for checking the time elapsed since a
time is less/greater, and it also returns false in all cases where
the time is '0'.
- Moved the default value for 'system.files.max_size' to rtorrent, and
set the default in libtorrent to ~0.
- Increased the default values for min/max_peers and max_uploads.
- Fixed a bug that would cause hash checking to block excessively in some
cases.
- Fixed a bug when setting the pex flags.
- Fixed an issue where DHT's hashing function for TR1 unordered_map was
casting unaligned size_t pointers.
- Fixed default session name.
- Added a missing inline that could cause linking errors.
