Hey, Attached is patch to fix test for 'ranlib -c' that didn't work on Solaris. Hopefully this one will work on any sh interpreter. Another thing that I would like to ask is about includes that disappear from time to time from various .c files. Today after getting fresh copy of repository and trying to compile I found that tools/players.c is missing sys/socket.h Not sure why this was removed (maybe it breaks something on different systems). As pretty fresh darcs user I also didn't find any good way to find who created this regression. I had to zcat all files under patches directory to actually find that Quozl is the man :) Is there good way to get version diff (i.e. something like cvs diff -r 1.1 filename) ? Stas. -------------- next part -------------- New patches: [OSX ranlib test fix keyos at keyos.org**20060523110427 Test for ranlib was failing on Solaris.

In gmp3, functions are #define'd to different names in gmp.h, for example mpz_init() becomes __gmpz_init(). Since the autoconf test doesn't include gmp.h, it didn't find the new names. The fix, copied from http://www.kaffe.org/pipermail/kaffe/2000-November/090303.html, is to just do a new test with the gmp3 names if the first test fails. ] [remove glib-config from Makefile.in Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060522212353 The Makefile includes calls to glib-config, which aren't necessary to build the server, and fail if glib-config doesn't exist. If someone wants to enable the (disabled) database timing functionality that uses glib, they can just add the options when they run configure. ] [revise build test after libtoolize adoption quozl at us.netrek.org**20060522061037 Stephen Thorne's addition of libtool to the configuration requires a change to the build test sequence, to run libtoolize and aclocal. Also it is no longer necessary to make configure executable, as autoconf does that for us. ] [setteam usage fix quozl at us.netrek.org**20060522022327 * tools/setteam.c: fix error in usage propogated from setplanet, and remove unnecessary include. ] [Observ mask fix williamb at its.caltech.edu**20060522014159 * socket.c, redraw.c: removal of lockup for observers under declare war/transwarp/refit situations.

Bots will try to bomb own armies when 2 carriers drop on same planet. And planet ends up with >4 armies. * robotd/decide.c changed some tabbing * robotd/decide.c corrected logic in check_take function. Robotd now takes neutral planets. Before it had a tendency to ignore neutral planets. Also used to crash out when no more enemy planets. Both are fixed with this. * robotd/main.c, shmem.c, socket.c, update_players.c removed mfprintf function. replaced with fprintf function until such time that mfprintf function is fixed so it doesn't crash. Bandaid. * robotd/update_players.c changed some tabbing, added some missing braces. * robotd/update_players.c changed closest_planet() function to return the current closest planet instead of NULL when it cannot find a closer planet. * robotd/util.c added comments to reflect that mfprintf causes crashes for as yet unknown reasons. ] [fix two second delay on client connection if daemon not running quozl at us.netrek.org**20060521123246 Remove the two second delay experienced by clients that connect to a server on which the daemon is not running. Also fix a cause of initial connection failing, which happens if the daemon does not start up within the hoped-for interval. Solution is implemented using the SIGUSR1 signal, but only during the initialisation window between when ntserv forks the daemon and the daemon completes initialisation. The signal is not used at other times. * ntserv/daemonII.c (main): send a SIGUSR1 to parent process (ntserv) once initialisation of shared memory is completed and regular SIGALRMs are about to commence. * ntserv/openmem.c (openmem): remove two second delay that was used to hope for daemon to initialise. * ntserv/openmem.c (startdaemon): add a wait for SIGUSR1. ] [add game pause/resume/terminate tool, setgame quozl at us.netrek.org**20060521115034 * tools/setgame.c: add script utility for pausing, resuming, and terminating the game. * tools/Makefile.in: add setgame target. * ntserv/input.c (input): send bad version packet to terminate client as soon as a GU_GAMEOK termination is requested. * ntserv/daemonII.c (udplayers): terminate daemon as soon as possible if a GU_GAMEOK termination is requested. Change nplayers to nfree, to better explain what the variable is. * include/struct.h (game_ok): remove unused macro. ] [add max duplicate ip count for pickup play quozl at us.netrek.org**20060519075351 Adds a new etc/sysdef option DUPLICATES which is the maximum number of pickup player slots allowed from the same IP address before the next connection is given the Q32 response. This is a denial of service filtering feature. The default is 3. Set this above 16 to make it ineffective. Set this to less than half of the number of players per side, otherwise abusers may not be ejected or banned by majority vote because a majority would be impossible. Does not affect robots, unless they join via the pickup queue ... which would be a misconfiguration. Robots normally join via a special queue. ] [add install-ntserv target for live updates quozl at us.netrek.org**20060519060623 Addition of a target install-ntserv to the ntserv Makefile so that a server operator can do a live update of ntserv during a running game. The target moves the existing in-use ntserv binary into an archive tree before installing the new ntserv binary. This makes it possible to manually back out of an installation if the new binary breaks badly. Other methods to test a new ntserv binary include running it manually for connection back to the client. See ntserv command line options. ] [mute banned observers quozl at us.netrek.org**20060519042723 Banned observers are allowed in and can speak, which was a surprise, but the code has always allowed this since observers were added. Change to prevent banned observers from talking. Simplify ban logic further. ] [fix changelog conflict from att patch Stephen Thorne <stephen at thorne.id.au>**20060519024319] [Transwarp war errormsg williamb at its.caltech.edu**20060519021844] [ATT fixes williamb at its.caltech.edu**20060518081658] [patch acceptance policy regarding patch name and comment quozl at us.netrek.org**20060519015208 Define a new policy of not changing ChangeLog and NEWS until release. ] [resolve ChangeLog conflict again Stephen Thorne <stephen at thorne.id.au>**20060518095505] [add setteam utility source quozl at us.netrek.org**20060518061257 The actual source now, so that builds complete. ] [add setteam utility quozl at us.netrek.org**20060518055920 Add a utility for viewing and changing the starbase reconstruction timer and surrender timer, both of which are in struct teams. Although these timers can be manipulated by other means, setteam makes it easier to script. Some common code now exists in setplanet.c and setteam.c that deserves factorisation. ] [resolve ChangeLog conflict - this is getting annoying Stephen Thorne <stephen at thorne.id.au>**20060518095316] [adding aclocal.m4 Stephen Thorne <stephen at thorne.id.au>**20060518020621] [resolve conflict Stephen Thorne <stephen at thorne.id.au>**20060518034143] [move wdt reset from SIGALRM handler to input handler quozl at us.netrek.org**20060518024416 Slots may jam in POUTFIT after KWINNER if the user terminates the client ungracefully ... such that the TCP connection is gone but the ntserv lives on. During this time, daemon synchronisation still sends SIGALRM to the ntserv, and ntserv's SIGALRM handler still resets the p_ghostbust timer. Prototype solution is to move p_ghostbust watchdog timer reset from within the SIGALRM handler to the section of main loop that is executed when input arrives from the client. Monitoring the p_ghostbust timer with gdb shows it is now reset for a dormant client on receipt of ping responses. ] [improve the autoconf system to use AC_PROG_LIBTOOL and @RANLIB@ correctly. Stephen Thorne <stephen at thorne.id.au>**20060518014309 * tests/build: Set the configure and mktrekon files executable, just in case. * configure.in: Add AC_PROG_LIBTOOL macro. * ntserv/Makefile.in: Use the @RANLIB@ and @RANLIB_FLAGS@ macros. ] [fix the OSX build by passing the -c flag to ranlib.
