8 2020 August 4; Version 4.2.2
9 Correct bug in the rmr_probe support utility when -r option is used
10 on the command line (RIC-644)
12 2020 August 4; Version 4.2.1
13 Add additional environment variable dump if RMR_LOG_VLEVEL set to
16 2020 August 3; Version 4.2.0
17 Add support for the RMR_RTREQ_FREQ environment variable to control
18 the request frequency for a new route table (default 5s if not
21 2020 July 21; Version 4.1.4
22 Fix bug in SI95 -- possible use of pointer after free (RIC-626).
24 2020 July 9; version 4.1.3
25 Allow RTS messages to be sent before the arrival of the initial
26 route table. Calls to RTS (heart beat responses) prior to the
27 initial route table load could cause a crash if a framework
28 blindly assumes that RTS is valid. (RIC-589)
30 2020 June 22; version 4.1.2
31 Fix typo in RIC Message header file.
33 Add document for message type constants and the scripts
36 2020 June 22; version 4.1.1
37 Add new message types to RIC header file for
41 RAN_E2_RESET_REQ (12008)
42 RAN_E2_RESET_RESP (12009)
44 2020 June 18; version 4.1.0
45 Bump version minor to move away from 4.0.* which will bump for any
46 patches applied back to bronze.
48 Add magic C++ goo to symtab header file allowing C++ xAPPs to use
49 the symbol table directly.
51 2020 May 06; version 4.0.5
52 Fix the bug in SI95 receive message management semaphore count
55 2020 April 29; version 4.0.4
56 Fix the traffic steering message type constants (again) (RIC-342)
58 2020 April 28; version 4.0.3
59 Fix sonar flagged bugs (RIC-78)
61 2020 April 24; version 4.0.2
62 Correct bug in SI95 transport header length validation (RIC-341)
64 2020 April 22; version 4.0.1
65 Correct message type constant for Traffic Steering predication (RIC-342)
67 2020 April 21; version 4.0.0
68 The NNG based libraries are no longer included in the RMR packages.
69 This is considered a breaking change as NNG will not be supported by
70 default. It is still possible to build with RMR-NNG libraries, but
71 that is the exception. The API between 3.8.2 and 4.0.0 is the SAME.
72 Upgrading to 4.0.0 only means that the underlying transport mechanism
73 is limited only to SI95.
75 The rmr_rcv_specific() function has been deprecated as it was necessary
76 only for NNG and Nanomsg support. Its use should be discontinued.
78 2020 April 20; version 3.8.2
79 Fix bug which was preventing an instance receiving dynamic route
80 table updates. (RIC-336)
82 2020 April 20; version 3.8.1
83 Add user guide which replaces the concatenation of man pages (RIC-328)
85 2020 April 17; version 3.8.0
86 Add safe connect to avoid potential connect bug on Linux (RIC-332)
88 Change debugging in route table collector to avoid possible
89 segment fault when in level 2 debug (RIC-335)

92 Add missing message type to header file (RIC-334)
94 2020 April 14; version 3.7.3
95 Fix bug in rmr_call() when using SI95 (RIC-333)
97 2020 April 10; version 3.7.2
98 Fix bug related to static route table only mode (RIC-331)
100 2020 April 9; version 3.7.1
101 The max length restriction for receiving messages when using SI95 has
102 been removed. The length supplied during initialisation is used as
103 the "normal maximum" and default buffer allocation size, but messages
104 arriving which are larger are accepted. (RIC-309)
106 2020 April 7; version 3.7.0
107 The health check support programme was renamed to rmr_probe (RIC-308).
109 2020 April 6; version 3.6.6

136 ack/nack of meid tables (RIC-273)
138 2020 March 10; version 3.5.1
139 Add missing health check message types.
141 2020 March 9; version 3.5.0

166 Fix receive thread related core dump (ring early unlock).
168 2020 February 19; version 3.2.1
169 Added missing message types (E2-Setup)
171 2020 February 18; version 3.2.0

173 a request for table update.
175 2020 February 14; version 3.1.3
176 Fix bug in SIsend which was causing a core dump in some cases

207 2020 January 16; version 3.0.0
208 Introduce support for SI95 transport library to replace NNG.
209 (RMR library versions will use leading odd numbers to avoid tag collisions
210 with the wrapper tags which will use even numbers.)
212 2019 December 9; version 1.13.1
213 Correct documentation and missing rel-notes update for RTD.
215 2019 December 6; version 1.13.0

235 2019 October 31; version 1.10.2
236 Provide the means to increase the payload size of a received message
237 without losing the data needed to use the rmr_rts_msg() funciton.
239 2019 October 21; version 1.10.1
240 Fix to prevent null message buffer from being returned by the timeout
241 receive function if the function is passed one to reuse.
243 2019 October 21; version 1.10.1
244 Add periodic dump of send count info to stderr.
246 2019 September 27; version 1.9.0
247 Python bindings added receive all queued function and corrected a unit test
249 2019 September 25; version 1.8.3
250 Correct application level test issue causing timing problems during
251 jenkins verification testing at command and merge
253 Handle the NNG connection shutdown status which may now be
254 generated when a connection throug a proxy is reset.
256 2019 September 25; version 1.8.2
257 Correct bug in rmr_torcv_msg() when timeout set to zero (0).
259 2019 September 19; version 1.8.1
260 Correct missing constant for wrappers.
262 2019 September 19; version 1.8.0
263 New message types added:
264 RAN_CONNECTED, RAN_RESTARTED, RAN_RECONFIGURED
266 2019 September 17; version 1.7.0
267 Initial connection mode now defaults to asynchronous. Set RMR_ASYNC_CONN=0
268 in the environment before rmr_init() is invoked to revert to
269 synchronous first TCP connections. (Recovery connection attempts
270 have always been asynchronous).
272 2019 September 3; version 1.6.0
273 Fix bug in the rmr_rts_msg() function. If a return to sender message
274 failed, the source IP address was not correctly adjusted and could
275 cause the message to be "reflected" back to the sender on a retry.
277 Added the ability to set the source "ID" via an environment var
278 (RMR_SRC_ID). When present in the environment, the string will
279 be placed in to the message header as the source and thus be used
280 by an application calling rmr_rts_smg() to return a response to
281 the sender. If this environment variable is not present, the host
282 name (original behaviour) is used.
284 2019 August 26; version 1.4.0
285 New message types were added.
287 2019 August 16; version 1.3.0
288 New mesage types added.
290 2019 August 13; version 1.2.0 (API change, non-breaking)
291 The function rmr_get_xact() was added to proide a convenient
292 way to extract the transaction field from a message.
294 2019 August 8; version 1.1.0 (API change)
295 This change should be backward compatable/non-breaking
296 A new field has been added to the message buffer (rmr_mbuf_t).
297 This field (tp_state) is used to communicate the errno value
298 that the transport mechanism might set during send and/or
299 receive operations. C programmes should continue to use
300 errno directly, but in some environments wrappers may not be
301 able to access errno and this provides the value to them.
302 See the rmr_alloc_msg manual page for more details.
304 2019 August 6; version 1.0.45 (build changes)
305 Support for the Nanomsg transport library has been dropped.
306 The library librmr.* will no longer be included in packages.
308 Packages will install RMR libraries into the system preferred
309 target directory. On some systems this is /usr/local/lib
310 and on others it is /usr/local/lib64. The diretory is
311 determined by the sytem on which the package is built and
312 NOT by the system installing the package, so it's possible
313 that the RMR libraries end up in a strange location if the
314 .deb or .rpm file was generated on a Linux flavour that
315 has a different preference than the one where the package
318 2019 August 6; version 1.0.44 (API change)
319 Added a new message type constant.
321 2019 July 15; Version 1.0.39 (bug fix)
322 Prevent unnecessary usleep in retry loop.
324 2019 July 12; Version 1.0.38 (API change)
325 Added new message types to RIC_message_types.h.
327 2019 July 11; Version 1.0.37
329 librmr and librmr_nng
330 - Add message buffer API function rmr_trace_ref()
331 (see rmr_trace_ref.3 manual page in dev package).
