-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2019-c8a08663d6 2019-04-01 00:00:44.901176 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : libgpiod Product : Fedora 30 Version : 1.3 Release : 1.fc30 URL : https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libgpiod/libgpiod.git/ Summary : C library and tools for interacting with linux GPIO char device Description : libgpiod is a C library and tools for interacting with the linux GPIO character device (gpiod stands for GPIO device) The new character device interface guarantees all allocated resources are freed after closing the device file descriptor and adds several new features that are not present in the obsolete sysfs interface (like event polling, setting/reading multiple values at once or open-source and open-drain GPIOs).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
libgpiod v1.3 ============= New features: * the gpio-tools now have automatically generated (using help2man) man pages that are bundled with the release tarball * support a singular 'default_val' argument in Line.request() in python bindings * the test executable can now be installed to the bindir along with the gpio-tools and the testing framework will look for the binaries in standard locations if it's not run from the top source directory * gpiomon now supports line buffered output Improvements: * tweaks to the C API documentation * treewide unification of the naming of local variables * extended helptest in gpioset (explanation of the way the character device works aimed at reducing user confusion when a GPIO line reverts to its default value after gpioset exits) * the source directories have been rearranged and the src/ directory was dropped, lib/ and tools/ now live in the top source directory * minor coding style fixes in python bindings, ctxless functions and tools * automatically generated documentation is now removed by 'make clean' * all Makefiles now use top_builddir instead of relative paths * code shrink in configure.ac * add a brief section about API documentation to README Bug fixes: * fix a segfault causing bug in C++ bindings * make bitset_cmp::operator() const as this is required by C++17 * ignore 'remove' events from udev in the testing framework * don't segfault on num_lines = 0 in ctxless functions --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
