8 2020 October 30; Version 4.3.1
9 Changes to address code analyser scans and two bug fixes identified
10 while addressing the analysis data. (RIC-673)
12 2020 October 2; Version 4.3.0
13 Add message types for traffic steering anomaly messages
15 2020 September 15; Version 4.2.4
16 Add man page for the rmr_set_low_latency() function (RIC-631)
18 2020 September 15; Version 4.2.3
19 Correct arg processing bug in rmr_rpobe (RIC-645)
21 2020 August 4; Version 4.2.2
22 Correct bug in the rmr_probe support utility when -r option is used
23 on the command line (RIC-644)
25 2020 August 4; Version 4.2.1

29 2020 August 3; Version 4.2.0
30 Add support for the RMR_RTREQ_FREQ environment variable to control
31 the request frequency for a new route table (default 5s if not
34 2020 July 21; Version 4.1.4
35 Fix bug in SI95 -- possible use of pointer after free (RIC-626).
37 2020 July 9; version 4.1.3
38 Allow RTS messages to be sent before the arrival of the initial
39 route table. Calls to RTS (heart beat responses) prior to the
40 initial route table load could cause a crash if a framework
41 blindly assumes that RTS is valid. (RIC-589)
43 2020 June 22; version 4.1.2
44 Fix typo in RIC Message header file.
46 Add document for message type constants and the scripts
49 2020 June 22; version 4.1.1
50 Add new message types to RIC header file for
54 RAN_E2_RESET_REQ (12008)
55 RAN_E2_RESET_RESP (12009)
57 2020 June 18; version 4.1.0
58 Bump version minor to move away from 4.0.* which will bump for any
59 patches applied back to bronze.
61 Add magic C++ goo to symtab header file allowing C++ xAPPs to use
62 the symbol table directly.
64 2020 May 06; version 4.0.5
65 Fix the bug in SI95 receive message management semaphore count
68 2020 April 29; version 4.0.4
69 Fix the traffic steering message type constants (again) (RIC-342)
71 2020 April 28; version 4.0.3
72 Fix sonar flagged bugs (RIC-78)
74 2020 April 24; version 4.0.2
75 Correct bug in SI95 transport header length validation (RIC-341)
77 2020 April 22; version 4.0.1
78 Correct message type constant for Traffic Steering predication (RIC-342)
80 2020 April 21; version 4.0.0
81 The NNG based libraries are no longer included in the RMR packages.
82 This is considered a breaking change as NNG will not be supported by
83 default. It is still possible to build with RMR-NNG libraries, but
84 that is the exception. The API between 3.8.2 and 4.0.0 is the SAME.
85 Upgrading to 4.0.0 only means that the underlying transport mechanism
86 is limited only to SI95.
88 The rmr_rcv_specific() function has been deprecated as it was necessary
89 only for NNG and Nanomsg support. Its use should be discontinued.
91 2020 April 20; version 3.8.2
92 Fix bug which was preventing an instance receiving dynamic route
93 table updates. (RIC-336)
95 2020 April 20; version 3.8.1
96 Add user guide which replaces the concatenation of man pages (RIC-328)
98 2020 April 17; version 3.8.0
99 Add safe connect to avoid potential connect bug on Linux (RIC-332)
101 Change debugging in route table collector to avoid possible
102 segment fault when in level 2 debug (RIC-335)
104 2020 April 15; version 3.7.4
105 Add missing message type to header file (RIC-334)
107 2020 April 14; version 3.7.3
108 Fix bug in rmr_call() when using SI95 (RIC-333)
110 2020 April 10; version 3.7.2
111 Fix bug related to static route table only mode (RIC-331)
113 2020 April 9; version 3.7.1
114 The max length restriction for receiving messages when using SI95 has
115 been removed. The length supplied during initialisation is used as
116 the "normal maximum" and default buffer allocation size, but messages
117 arriving which are larger are accepted. (RIC-309)
119 2020 April 7; version 3.7.0
120 The health check support programme was renamed to rmr_probe (RIC-308).
122 2020 April 6; version 3.6.6
123 Correct bug in SI95 address conversion module (RIC-327)
124 Correct bug in SI initialisation module
126 2020 April 2; version 3.6.5

149 ack/nack of meid tables (RIC-273)
151 2020 March 10; version 3.5.1
152 Add missing health check message types.
154 2020 March 9; version 3.5.0
155 Added new wormhole send function: rmr_wh_call().
157 2020 March 6; version 3.4.0

179 Fix receive thread related core dump (ring early unlock).
181 2020 February 19; version 3.2.1
182 Added missing message types (E2-Setup)
184 2020 February 18; version 3.2.0

186 a request for table update.
188 2020 February 14; version 3.1.3
189 Fix bug in SIsend which was causing a core dump in some cases

220 2020 January 16; version 3.0.0
221 Introduce support for SI95 transport library to replace NNG.
222 (RMR library versions will use leading odd numbers to avoid tag collisions
223 with the wrapper tags which will use even numbers.)
225 2019 December 9; version 1.13.1
226 Correct documentation and missing rel-notes update for RTD.
228 2019 December 6; version 1.13.0

248 2019 October 31; version 1.10.2
249 Provide the means to increase the payload size of a received message
250 without losing the data needed to use the rmr_rts_msg() funciton.
252 2019 October 21; version 1.10.1
253 Fix to prevent null message buffer from being returned by the timeout
254 receive function if the function is passed one to reuse.
256 2019 October 21; version 1.10.1
257 Add periodic dump of send count info to stderr.
259 2019 September 27; version 1.9.0
260 Python bindings added receive all queued function and corrected a unit test
262 2019 September 25; version 1.8.3
263 Correct application level test issue causing timing problems during
264 jenkins verification testing at command and merge
266 Handle the NNG connection shutdown status which may now be
267 generated when a connection throug a proxy is reset.
269 2019 September 25; version 1.8.2
270 Correct bug in rmr_torcv_msg() when timeout set to zero (0).
272 2019 September 19; version 1.8.1
273 Correct missing constant for wrappers.
275 2019 September 19; version 1.8.0
276 New message types added:
277 RAN_CONNECTED, RAN_RESTARTED, RAN_RECONFIGURED
279 2019 September 17; version 1.7.0
280 Initial connection mode now defaults to asynchronous. Set RMR_ASYNC_CONN=0
281 in the environment before rmr_init() is invoked to revert to
282 synchronous first TCP connections. (Recovery connection attempts
283 have always been asynchronous).
285 2019 September 3; version 1.6.0
286 Fix bug in the rmr_rts_msg() function. If a return to sender message
287 failed, the source IP address was not correctly adjusted and could
288 cause the message to be "reflected" back to the sender on a retry.
290 Added the ability to set the source "ID" via an environment var
291 (RMR_SRC_ID). When present in the environment, the string will
292 be placed in to the message header as the source and thus be used
293 by an application calling rmr_rts_smg() to return a response to
294 the sender. If this environment variable is not present, the host
295 name (original behaviour) is used.
297 2019 August 26; version 1.4.0
298 New message types were added.
300 2019 August 16; version 1.3.0
301 New mesage types added.
303 2019 August 13; version 1.2.0 (API change, non-breaking)
304 The function rmr_get_xact() was added to proide a convenient
305 way to extract the transaction field from a message.
307 2019 August 8; version 1.1.0 (API change)
308 This change should be backward compatable/non-breaking
309 A new field has been added to the message buffer (rmr_mbuf_t).
310 This field (tp_state) is used to communicate the errno value
311 that the transport mechanism might set during send and/or
312 receive operations. C programmes should continue to use
313 errno directly, but in some environments wrappers may not be
314 able to access errno and this provides the value to them.
315 See the rmr_alloc_msg manual page for more details.
317 2019 August 6; version 1.0.45 (build changes)
318 Support for the Nanomsg transport library has been dropped.
319 The library librmr.* will no longer be included in packages.
321 Packages will install RMR libraries into the system preferred
322 target directory. On some systems this is /usr/local/lib
323 and on others it is /usr/local/lib64. The diretory is
324 determined by the sytem on which the package is built and
325 NOT by the system installing the package, so it's possible
326 that the RMR libraries end up in a strange location if the
327 .deb or .rpm file was generated on a Linux flavour that
328 has a different preference than the one where the package
331 2019 August 6; version 1.0.44 (API change)
332 Added a new message type constant.
334 2019 July 15; Version 1.0.39 (bug fix)
335 Prevent unnecessary usleep in retry loop.
337 2019 July 12; Version 1.0.38 (API change)
338 Added new message types to RIC_message_types.h.
340 2019 July 11; Version 1.0.37
342 librmr and librmr_nng
343 - Add message buffer API function rmr_trace_ref()
344 (see rmr_trace_ref.3 manual page in dev package).
