-Version 1.1.2 - 2007-06-03

-

-* Security fixes:

-  * Fix CVE-2007-1667: Multiple integer overflows in the XGetPixel() and

-    XInitImage() functions.

-  * Bug #9279: Fixed a file descriptor leak.

-

-* Xlib/XCB: Ensure _XReadEvents reads at least one new event and blocks for

-  exactly one event.  Large performance improvement for XIfEvent and similar.

-

-* Hold XCB's Xlib lock even when only the user lock (XLockDisplay) is held.

-  An Xlib client can query Display state, such as with NextRequest, while it

-  holds only the Xlib user lock (between XLockDisplay and XUnlockDisplay), so

-  XCB requests in other threads should be blocked when the Xlib user lock is

-  held.  We acquire the lock even when XInitThreads was not called, so that

-  pure XCB code can use multiple threads even in an otherwise single-threaded

-  Xlib application.

-

-* Allow re-entrant Xlib calls from _XIOError.

-  Some libraries try to clean up X resources from atexit handlers, _fini, or

-  C++ destructors. To make these work, downgrade the Display lock to a user

-  lock (as in XLockDisplay) before calling exit(3).  This blocks Xlib calls

-  from threads other than the one calling exit(3) while still allowing the

-  exit handlers to call Xlib.

-

-* Xlib/XCB: Avoid re-crashing after _XIOError.

-

-* Xlib/XCB: Only remove pending_requests when there are provably no more responses.

-

-* For NetBSD, define XTHREADLIB and XTHREAD_CFLAGS.

-

-* Bug #7703: Fixed XSetSizeHints() et al wrt use of uninitialized data.

-  Now only those fields of the respective hint struct are set that

-  are actually valid in the input data.

-

-* Bug #10292: Fixed a memory leak related to XOpenDisplay() in the XCB code.

-

-* Bug #7713: Initialize all of the event's fields before sending it.

-

-* Bug #10562: Define _GNU_SOURCE on glibc systems.

-

-* Use unistd.h to get getresuid() and friends, now that we have _GNU_SOURCE

-  defined.

-

-* Switched function definitions from K&R to ANSI style.

-

-* Many constness fixes.

-

-* Fixed a few warnings.

-

-* Fix 64bit issues with reallocation.

-

-* Manpage fixes:

-  * Add man pages for XKB APIs.

-    (Volunteer needed to convert prototypes in man pages to ANSI C style...)

-  * Protect C comments and #defines in XKB man pages from being mangled by cpp

-  * Fix typo in nroff macro in XkbAddGeomOverlayKey.man

-  * Bug #9695: Fixed a few argument types in the XOpenIM manpage.

-  * Markup tweak for XOpenIM.

-  * Bug #9696: refer to XDefineCursor() instead of XDefineCusor().

-  * Bug #9697: Fixed documentation of XVisualInfo struct.  The "depth" member

-    was said to be unsigned int, but it's signed.

-

-* nls fixes:

-  * Update el_GR.UTF-8/Compose.pre to match changes in xkeyboard-config cvs.

-  * For nls/*.pre, allow people to comment lines by starting them with '##'.

-

-* Build system fixes:

-  * Add autogen.sh to EXTRA_DIST.

-  * Makefile.am: make ChangeLog hook safer

-  * Don't distribute the configure-generated XlibConf.h in tarballs.

-

-Version 1.1.1 - 2006-11-30

-

-The "xcompmgr is hard, let's go releasing" release

-

-* Fix Bug #9154 and friends, to unbreak xcompmgr:

-  Always process an event for _XReadEvents, even if an error occurs.

-  Previously, process_responses (in the wait_for_first_event case called

-  from _XReadEvents) considered any return from xcb_wait_for_event

-  sufficient to think it had processed an event. If xcb_wait_for_event

-  returned an error, and no more events occurred before process_responses

-  called xcb_poll_for_event, process_responses would try to return with

-  dpy->head NULL, and would fail an assertion for the _XReadEvents

-  postcondition. Now, process_responses continues using xcb_wait_for_event

-  until it gets an event.

-

-* Bug #9153: Fix access to freed memory.

-  The fix for bug #8622 introduced a smaller bug where _XReply would

-  read memory shortly after freeing it. This patch caches the needed

-  value in a stack-allocated variable before the heap-allocated memory

-  is freed.

-

-* libx11 doesn't use inputproto in public headers; don't require it in x11.pc.

-  Based on a Debian patch.

-

-* Debian bug #354315: Clarify return value in XGetWindowAttributes man page.

-  Patch by Debian user Ross Combs.

-

-

-Version 1.1 - 2006-11-23

-

-* Add note in man-page that XListFontsWithInfo is not thread-safe.  _XReply

-  drops the Display lock, so the value of dpy->request may change before

-  _XReply is called again.  Jamey Sharp discovered this by inspection a few

-  years ago.

-

-* Fix Bug #8622, by fixing the response processing order for threaded apps.

-  process_responses (the common code for _XReply, _XReadEvents, and

-  _XEventsQueued) now handles responses in order, by adding condition variables

-  to the list of outstanding requests in dpy->xcb->pending_requests, and

-  blocking on them when those requests should get processed, to allow _XReply

-  to process them; if actually called from _XReply, it returns when _XReply's

-  request should get processed.  _XReply broadcasts on its condition variable

-  after it has read its reply and re-acquired the display lock.

-

-* Don't hold the display lock around callbacks to the application. This avoids

-  recursive locking of the display lock (which triggers an XCB locking

-  assertion), particularly with emacs.

-

-* Add xcb-xlib dependency to x11.pc when built against XCB.

-

-* Allocate the right amount of memory for dpy->lock_fns.  Fixes a crash on

-  startup with gdk.

-

-

-Version 1.1 RC2 - 2006-11-02

-

-Benno Schulenberg:

-      nls: remove duplicate compose entries (bug #2286)

-      nls: remove shadowed compose entries (bug #2286)

-      nls (en_US): remove long compositions that override shorter (bug #2286)

-

-Caolan McNamara:

-      XKB geometry: fix leaks in GetKeyboardByName (bug #8099)

-

-David Nusinow:

-      Dynamically generate internal manpage section using __libmanpagesuffix__ so that it actually matches the section if you don't use 3X11

-

-Jamey Sharp:

-      Add correct Display locking to XKB functions.

-      XKB bugfix: SyncHandle must be called after UnlockDisplay, not before.

-      XCB: check for and handle I/O errors in _XGetXCBBuffer.

-

-Matthias Hopf:

-      Fix double open of compose file.

-

-

-Version 1.1 RC1 - 2006-10-06

-

-This release includes the Xlib/XCB work, which uses XCB as the Xlib transport

-layer, and allows a client to use both Xlib and XCB on the same connection.

-This allows clients to transition from Xlib to XCB incrementally.

-

-Clients which link only to libX11, and do not use XCB, should not notice any

-differences in this release.  Clients desiring XCB interoperability should

-additionally #include <X11/Xlib-xcb.h>, link to libX11-xcb, use

-XGetXCBConnection(dpy) to obtain the underlying XCB connection, and then use

-XCB functions directly on that connection.

-

-Note that while a client can issue requests and handle their replies or errors

-with either Xlib or XCB, only one can own and handle the event queue.  By

-default, Xlib must own the event queue, for compatibility with legacy Xlib

-clients.  Clients can use the function XSetEventQueueOwner immediately after

-XOpenDisplay to let XCB own the event queue instead.  Clients may not call

-this function after processing any responses, as this will potentially lose

-responses.

-

-We expect to have an RC2 release corresponding to the Xorg RC2 schedule, which

-should include additional internal architecture enhancements, but no

-user-visible changes.  1.0 final should match RC2.

-

-Other smaller changes in this release:

-* correct ChangeLog generation

-* support running lint and sparse

-* Autoconf 2.60

-* fix man page for XUrgencyHint

-* improve man pages for XGrabButton, XGrabKey, XGetWindowProperty

-* new locales: as_IN.UTF-8, kn_IN.UTF-8, ml_IN.UTF-8, or_IN.UTF-8,

-  te_IN.UTF-8, ur_IN.UTF-8

-* on systems with both UNIXCONN and LOCALCONN, try unix if local fails

-* fix sparse warnings

-* ansify static functions
