Double thanks to Eric Junkermann for bug feedback. Thanks to Volker Wysk for feedback. Thanks to Tsukasa for feedback, bug report and help improving the dar_split command. Cheers, Denis Corbin - ------- from 2.5.13 to 2.5.14 * made libgcrypt built-in memory guard be initialized before obtaining ligcrypt version, to respect libgcrypt usage (but no problem was seen nor reported about this inconsistency) * fixed syntax error in XML listing output (EA_entry and Attributes tags) * fixed typos in dar man page * Updating Tutorial for restoration * fixed bugs in dar_split: cygwin support, filedescriptors were not explicitly closed at end of execution, allocating buffer on heap rather than in the stack for better size flexibility, avoiding buffer size to be greater than SSIZE_MAX. * added -s option to dar_split in order to disable the by default SYNC write that was used and which caused poor performance. To keep the same behavior as the older dar_split (and its poor performances) you need now using -s option. * dar_split enhancement: added call to syncfs before closing the file descriptor in split_output mode * fixed bug in dar_split that was did not lead dar_split to completely fulfill an device before asking for user to change the media when used in split_output mode, this was sometimes leading dar reporting file as corrupted at dar_split at media boundary. * added feature in dar_split to show the amount of data written since the last media change -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIVAwUBWjqMnggxsL0D2LGCAQjawg//SNhWIH/4vhEZP1MPw5fzlqCSBX3UKaQ3 Ji123ZgGUW+oLMrNV8v0n5xYl7V0rN2MmgEA4xXfGJkg+Ax/s3/FkJZb+zz+L5gd 7DpEEJXmQdZ6K6cannbWryPsEhLw2xenFv7ZHNhrFq00DvC1X04ZUu2zR1+xcP4Q +bDR5k02nbInCt8fMMYF5Y1nX+rgHi0Kqr2YqkbZMuIZDPB18Ql0+9MxZZR2Lcco HeSHmLBMJq/PmB79Gw7dQSW4RI5q9DnW0kFOPAlYTd558sAUVIBN7dR05BLLCnis gb71Xjo7cSB9uk4/B3y+A/kbc5f5Jj7bjSs6yPQ0QqTxB7noFTeAJzXpCrTsysQH LA2YmqXD3JAZ/Unj2DVyQQqinGslC1+QWBvIRUF7rY/LKHHwNIo/RCyAOxbzHjvT LxrXSS1ROzPJmvzk+1vAim/qsgo3B5TlvvEV1gbZq76Gc13yM93hkEAQeaPdXUeb IMT9M9A9l11iWJ6iazRsnOmYXEelff418xSJ9U0Ubaqpq5JIQ9FlXMfjuq/Jg5T2 wcUJK1/LHY1yTSAo5d3Qc5H09XJ1JL9L28PA3PneNp6yGBoC6qp2avlTogCKn78q XfT6xIG+CDXEs4+eNkKLbbj6oRplLq8vz5XLAcT5asEFa9rBI1v5ascdBcr/Oek8 baZroC64NAs= =BRvj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot
