8 2020 May 06; version 4.0.5
9 Fix the bug in SI95 receive message management semaphore count
12 2020 April 29; version 4.0.4
13 Fix the traffic steering message type constants (again) (RIC-342)
15 2020 April 28; version 4.0.3
16 Fix sonar flagged bugs (RIC-78)
18 2020 April 24; version 4.0.2
19 Correct bug in SI95 transport header length validation (RIC-341)
21 2020 April 22; version 4.0.1
22 Correct message type constant for Traffic Steering predication (RIC-342)
24 2020 April 21; version 4.0.0
25 The NNG based libraries are no longer included in the RMR packages.
26 This is considered a breaking change as NNG will not be supported by
27 default. It is still possible to build with RMR-NNG libraries, but
28 that is the exception. The API between 3.8.2 and 4.0.0 is the SAME.
29 Upgrading to 4.0.0 only means that the underlying transport mechanism
30 is limited only to SI95.
32 The rmr_rcv_specific() function has been deprecated as it was necessary
33 only for NNG and Nanomsg support. Its use should be discontinued.
35 2020 April 20; version 3.8.2
36 Fix bug which was preventing an instance receiving dynamic route
37 table updates. (RIC-336)
39 2020 April 20; version 3.8.1
40 Add user guide which replaces the concatenation of man pages (RIC-328)
42 2020 April 17; version 3.8.0
43 Add safe connect to avoid potential connect bug on Linux (RIC-332)
45 Change debugging in route table collector to avoid possible
46 segment fault when in level 2 debug (RIC-335)

54 2020 April 10; version 3.7.2
55 Fix bug related to static route table only mode (RIC-331)
57 2020 April 9; version 3.7.1
58 The max length restriction for receiving messages when using SI95 has
59 been removed. The length supplied during initialisation is used as
60 the "normal maximum" and default buffer allocation size, but messages
61 arriving which are larger are accepted. (RIC-309)
63 2020 April 7; version 3.7.0
64 The health check support programme was renamed to rmr_probe (RIC-308).
66 2020 April 6; version 3.6.6

68 Correct bug in SI initialisation module
70 2020 April 2; version 3.6.5

72 use as a listen target (RIC-307)

93 ack/nack of meid tables (RIC-273)

96 Add missing health check message types.
98 2020 March 9; version 3.5.0
99 Added new wormhole send function: rmr_wh_call().
101 2020 March 6; version 3.4.0

123 Fix receive thread related core dump (ring early unlock).
125 2020 February 19; version 3.2.1
126 Added missing message types (E2-Setup)
128 2020 February 18; version 3.2.0
129 Added support for new Route Manager and it's ability to accept
130 a request for table update.
132 2020 February 14; version 3.1.3
133 Fix bug in SIsend which was causing a core dump in some cases
134 where the application attempted to send on a connection that
135 had disconnected. (RIC-207).
137 2020 February 6; version 3.1.2

164 2020 January 16; version 3.0.0
165 Introduce support for SI95 transport library to replace NNG.
166 (RMR library versions will use leading odd numbers to avoid tag collisions
167 with the wrapper tags which will use even numbers.)
169 2019 December 9; version 1.13.1
170 Correct documentation and missing rel-notes update for RTD.
172 2019 December 6; version 1.13.0

178 was not always copied.
180 2019 November 13; version 1.12.1
181 New message type constants added to support A1.
183 2019 November 4; version 1.11.0
184 Version bump to move away from the 1.10.* to distinguish between
185 release A and the trial.
187 2019 November 7; version 1.12.0

192 2019 October 31; version 1.10.2
193 Provide the means to increase the payload size of a received message
194 without losing the data needed to use the rmr_rts_msg() funciton.
196 2019 October 21; version 1.10.1
197 Fix to prevent null message buffer from being returned by the timeout
198 receive function if the function is passed one to reuse.
200 2019 October 21; version 1.10.1
201 Add periodic dump of send count info to stderr.
203 2019 September 27; version 1.9.0
204 Python bindings added receive all queued function and corrected a unit test
206 2019 September 25; version 1.8.3
207 Correct application level test issue causing timing problems during
208 jenkins verification testing at command and merge
210 Handle the NNG connection shutdown status which may now be
211 generated when a connection throug a proxy is reset.
213 2019 September 25; version 1.8.2
214 Correct bug in rmr_torcv_msg() when timeout set to zero (0).
216 2019 September 19; version 1.8.1
217 Correct missing constant for wrappers.
219 2019 September 19; version 1.8.0
220 New message types added:
221 RAN_CONNECTED, RAN_RESTARTED, RAN_RECONFIGURED
223 2019 September 17; version 1.7.0
224 Initial connection mode now defaults to asynchronous. Set RMR_ASYNC_CONN=0
225 in the environment before rmr_init() is invoked to revert to
226 synchronous first TCP connections. (Recovery connection attempts
227 have always been asynchronous).
229 2019 September 3; version 1.6.0
230 Fix bug in the rmr_rts_msg() function. If a return to sender message
231 failed, the source IP address was not correctly adjusted and could
232 cause the message to be "reflected" back to the sender on a retry.
234 Added the ability to set the source "ID" via an environment var
235 (RMR_SRC_ID). When present in the environment, the string will
236 be placed in to the message header as the source and thus be used
237 by an application calling rmr_rts_smg() to return a response to
238 the sender. If this environment variable is not present, the host
239 name (original behaviour) is used.
241 2019 August 26; version 1.4.0
242 New message types were added.
244 2019 August 16; version 1.3.0
245 New mesage types added.
247 2019 August 13; version 1.2.0 (API change, non-breaking)
248 The function rmr_get_xact() was added to proide a convenient
249 way to extract the transaction field from a message.
251 2019 August 8; version 1.1.0 (API change)
252 This change should be backward compatable/non-breaking
253 A new field has been added to the message buffer (rmr_mbuf_t).
254 This field (tp_state) is used to communicate the errno value
255 that the transport mechanism might set during send and/or
256 receive operations. C programmes should continue to use
257 errno directly, but in some environments wrappers may not be
258 able to access errno and this provides the value to them.
259 See the rmr_alloc_msg manual page for more details.
261 2019 August 6; version 1.0.45 (build changes)
262 Support for the Nanomsg transport library has been dropped.
263 The library librmr.* will no longer be included in packages.
265 Packages will install RMR libraries into the system preferred
266 target directory. On some systems this is /usr/local/lib
267 and on others it is /usr/local/lib64. The diretory is
268 determined by the sytem on which the package is built and
269 NOT by the system installing the package, so it's possible
270 that the RMR libraries end up in a strange location if the
271 .deb or .rpm file was generated on a Linux flavour that
272 has a different preference than the one where the package
275 2019 August 6; version 1.0.44 (API change)
276 Added a new message type constant.
278 2019 July 15; Version 1.0.39 (bug fix)
279 Prevent unnecessary usleep in retry loop.
281 2019 July 12; Version 1.0.38 (API change)
282 Added new message types to RIC_message_types.h.
284 2019 July 11; Version 1.0.37
286 librmr and librmr_nng
287 - Add message buffer API function rmr_trace_ref()
288 (see rmr_trace_ref.3 manual page in dev package).
