If one uses a symbolic name for the Port option, tinc will send that name
literally to other nodes. However, it is not guaranteed that all nodes have
the same contents in /etc/services, or have such a file at all.
This feature is not necessary anymore since we have tools like valgrind today
that can catch stack overflow errors before they make a backtrace in gdb
impossible.
- Update year numbers in copyright headers.
- Add copyright information for Michael Tokarev and Florian Forster to the
copyright headers of files to which they have contributed significantly.
- Mention Michael and Florian in AUTHORS.
- Mention that tinc is GPLv3 or later if compiled with the --enable-tunemu
flag.
Previously, tinc used a fixed address and port for each node for UDP packet
exchange. The port was the one advertised by that node as its listening port.
However, due to NAT the port might be different. Now, tinc sends a different
session key to each node. This way, the sending node can be determined from
incoming packets by checking the MAC against all session keys. If a match is
found, the address and port for that node are updated.
- Convert cp to cp(); so that automatic indenters work.
- Convert constructions like if(x == NULL) to if(!x).
- Move all assignments out of conditions.
- Remove checks for specific OS's, instead check for #defines/#includes.
- Use uint??_t where appropriate.
- Mask handling functions use void pointers to get rid of silly casts.
- Socket handling revamped to use sockaddr_t.
- tinc can now tunnel over IPv6.
- Handle all addresses and subnets in network byte order.
Only convert them when they need to be printed.
- IPv6 subnets bigger than /128 now work.
- Use %s and strerror(errno) instead of %m.
- Transition to new node/vertex/connection structures
- Use new configuration handling everywhere
- Linux tun/tap device handling cleanup
- Start of IPv6 support in route.c
It compiles, but it won't link.
