# Change Log

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
This project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/).

## [0.22.3] - 22 January 2022
### Changed

- Relaxed the bitflags requirement from 1.3.1 to 1.1.  This partially reverts
  #1492.  From now on, the MSRV is not guaranteed to work with all versions of
  all dependencies, just with some version of all dependencies.
  (#[1607]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1607)

## [0.22.2] - 28 September 2021
### Added
### Changed
### Fixed

- Fixed buffer overflow in `unistd::getgrouplist`.
  (#[1545]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1545)
- Added more errno definitions for better backwards compatibility with
  Nix 0.21.0.
  (#[1467]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1467)

## [0.22.1] - 13 August 2021
### Added
### Changed
### Fixed

- Locked bitflags to < 1.3.0 to fix the build with rust < 1.46.0.

### Removed

- Removed a couple of termios constants on redox that were never actually
  supported.
  (#[1483]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1483)

## [0.22.0] - 9 July 2021
### Added
- Added `if_nameindex` (#[1445]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1445)
- Added `nmount` for FreeBSD.
  (#[1453]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1453)
- Added `IpFreebind` socket option (sockopt) on Linux, Fuchsia and Android.
  (#[1456]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1456)
- Added `TcpUserTimeout` socket option (sockopt) on Linux and Fuchsia.
  (#[1457]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1457)
- Added `renameat2` for Linux
  (#[1458]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1458)
- Added `RxqOvfl` support on Linux, Fuchsia and Android.
  (#[1455]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1455)

### Changed
- `ptsname_r` now returns a lossily-converted string in the event of bad UTF,
  just like `ptsname`.
  ([#1446]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1446)
- Nix's error type is now a simple wrapper around the platform's Errno.  This
  means it is now `Into<std::io::Error>`.  It's also `Clone`, `Copy`, `Eq`, and
  has a small fixed size.  It also requires less typing.  For example, the old
  enum variant `nix::Error::Sys(nix::errno::Errno::EINVAL)` is now simply
  `nix::Error::EINVAL`.
  ([#1446]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1446)

### Fixed
### Removed

## [0.21.0] - 31 May 2021
### Added
- Added `getresuid` and `getresgid`
  (#[1430]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1430)
- Added TIMESTAMPNS support for linux
  (#[1402]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1402)
- Added `sendfile64` (#[1439]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1439)
- Added `MS_LAZYTIME` to `MsFlags`
  (#[1437]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1437)

### Changed
- Made `forkpty` unsafe, like `fork`
  (#[1390]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1390)
- Made `Uid`, `Gid` and `Pid` methods `from_raw` and `as_raw` a `const fn`
  (#[1429]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1429)
- Made `Uid::is_root` a `const fn`
  (#[1429]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1429)
- `AioCb` is now always pinned.  Once a `libc::aiocb` gets sent to the kernel,
  its address in memory must not change.  Nix now enforces that by using
  `std::pin`.  Most users won't need to change anything, except when using
  `aio_suspend`.  See that method's documentation for the new usage.
  (#[1440]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1440)
- `LioCb` is now constructed using a distinct `LioCbBuilder` struct.  This
  avoids a soundness issue with the old `LioCb`.  Usage is similar but
  construction now uses the builder pattern.  See the documentation for
  details.
  (#[1440]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1440)
- Minimum supported Rust version is now 1.41.0.
  ([#1440]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1440)
- Errno aliases are now associated consts on `Errno`, instead of consts in the
  `errno` module.
  (#[1452]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1452)

### Fixed
- Allow `sockaddr_ll` size, as reported by the Linux kernel, to be smaller then it's definition
  (#[1395]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1395)
- Fix spurious errors using `sendmmsg` with multiple cmsgs
  (#[1414]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1414)
- Added `Errno::EOPNOTSUPP` to FreeBSD, where it was missing.
  (#[1452]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1452)

### Removed

- Removed `sys::socket::accept4` from Android arm because libc removed it in
  version 0.2.87.
  ([#1399]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1399)
- `AioCb::from_boxed_slice` and `AioCb::from_boxed_mut_slice` have been
  removed.  They were useful with earlier versions of Rust, but should no
  longer be needed now that async/await are available.  `AioCb`s now work
  exclusively with borrowed buffers, not owned ones.
  (#[1440]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1440)
- Removed some Errno values from platforms where they aren't actually defined.
  (#[1452]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1452)

- Enabled `sys::ptrace::setregs` and `sys::ptrace::getregs` on x86_64-unknown-linux-musl target
  (#[1198]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1198)
- On Linux, `ptrace::write` is now an `unsafe` function. Caveat programmer.
  (#[1245]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1245)
- `execv`, `execve`, `execvp` and `execveat` in `::nix::unistd` and `reboot` in
  `::nix::sys::reboot` now return `Result<Infallible>` instead of `Result<Void>` (#[1239]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1239)
- `sys::socket::sockaddr_storage_to_addr` is no longer `unsafe`.  So is
  `offset_of!`.
- `sys::socket::sockaddr_storage_to_addr`, `offset_of!`, and `Errno::clear` are
  no longer `unsafe`.
- `SockAddr::as_ffi_pair`,`sys::socket::sockaddr_storage_to_addr`, `offset_of!`,
  and `Errno::clear` are no longer `unsafe`.
  (#[1244]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1244)
- Several `Inotify` methods now take `self` by value instead of by reference
  (#[1244]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1244)
- `nix::poll::ppoll`: `timeout` parameter is now optional, None is equivalent for infinite timeout.

### Fixed

- Fixed `getsockopt`.  The old code produced UB which triggers a panic with
  Rust 1.44.0.
  (#[1214]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1214)

- Fixed a bug in nix::unistd that would result in an infinite loop
  when a group or user lookup required a buffer larger than
  16KB. (#[1198]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1198)
- Fixed unaligned casting of `cmsg_data` to `af_alg_iv` (#[1206]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1206)
- Fixed `readlink`/`readlinkat` when reading symlinks longer than `PATH_MAX` (#[1231]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1231)
- `PollFd`, `EpollEvent`, `IpMembershipRequest`, `Ipv6MembershipRequest`,
  `TimeVal`, and `IoVec` are now `repr(transparent)`.  This is required for

  from the public API. These were previously hidden in the docs but still usable
  by downstream.
  (#[1235]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1235)

- Nix no longer implements `NixPath` for `Option<P> where P: NixPath`.  Most
  Nix functions that accept `NixPath` arguments can't do anything useful with
  `None`.  The exceptions (`mount` and `quotactl_sync`) already take explicitly
  optional arguments.
  (#[1242]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1242)

- Removed `unistd::daemon` and `unistd::pipe2` on OSX and ios
  (#[1255]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1255)

  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)

  ([#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::ControlMessage::ScmCredentials` and
  `sys::socket::ControlMessageOwned::ScmCredentials` now wrap `UnixCredentials`
  rather than `libc::ucred`.
  ([#1160]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/1160)

- `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)

  `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`.

## [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.

- `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)

  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
  `PTRACE_SETFPREGS` have been removed from some platforms where they never

  ([#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`.
  ([#402]https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/402)

  `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.
