RELNOTES

-[020116]
-! 1. Compile with rh-7.2
-! 2. What the hell some people blame on socklen_t defined in unistd.h? Check.
- * Kim Woelders <kim@woelders.dk>, various useful fixups: compilation
-   with old kernels, cross-compiling, "all" == "any" in prefix spec. 
- * Collected from my disk, cleaned and packed to directory iproute2/misc/
-   several utilities: ss, nstat, ifstat, rtacct, arpd and module tcp_diag.
-   Writing some docs. me.
- * prepared patchlet for pidentd to use tcp_diag.
- * David Miller: 64bit (and even worse 64bit kernel/32 bit user :-) fixes
-   to above. tcp_diag is merged to main tree.
- * Alexandr D. Kanevskiy <kad@blackcatlinux.com>: various flaws in ss
- * Alexandr D. Kanevskiy <kad@blackcatlinux.com>: oops, more aggressive caching
-   of names opened old bugs: ip started to print garbage in some places.
- * Robert Olsson, rt_cache_stat. Renamed to rtstat.
- * An old bug in "ip maddr ls": reduntant empty lines in output.
-   Seeing this crap for ages but lucky match of desire/ability to repair
-   and a huff about this happened only today. :-)
- * "Mr. James W. Laferriere" <babydr@baby-dragons.com>
-   doc: option to produce ps output for non-a4 and not only 2 pages/sheet. 
- * Jamal's patch for ingres qdisc.
- * Bernd Eckenfels <ecki@lina.inka.de>: deleted orphaned bogus #include
-   in include/utils.h.
- * Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg>: uninitialized fields in nexthop
-   producing funny "dead" nexthops in multipath routes.
-   Stupid me, look at the first line in [010803]... Was it difficult to guess
-   this that time? People blame for several months. :-)
-   Special thanks to bert hubert <ahu@ds9a.nl> who raised the issue in netdev.
-   Thanks and apologies to Terry Schmidt <terry@nycwireless.net>,
-   Ruben Puettmann <ruben.puettmann@freenet-ag.de>,
-   Mark Ivens <mivens@clara.net>.
- * willy tarreau <wtarreau@yahoo.fr>: "make install" target.

-   is about to be submitted. Reminded by Adi Nugroho <Adi@iNterNUX.co.id>.
-
-[010824]
- * ip address add sets scope of loopback addreses to "host".
-   Advised by David Miller.
- * ZIP! <zip@killerlabs.com> and David Ford <david@blue-labs.org>
-   Some strcpy's changed to strncpy's.
- * David Ford <david@blue-labs.org>, test for compilation with gcc3.
- * David Ford <david@blue-labs.org>. Damn, I broke rtnl_talk in previous
-   snapshot.
-
-[010803]
- * If "dev" is not specified in multipath route, ifindex remained

-   on deleting root of the table.
- * Werner. dsmark fixes.
- * Alexander Demenshin <aldem-reply@aldem.net>. Old miracleous bug
-   in ip monitor. It was puzzle, people permanently blame that
