- Fix Statserv server minparam count (F)
|
|
|
|
* NeoStats * Version 3.0.prealpha2
|
|
- First recommended release to devlist only as prealpha2. (M)
|
|
- Port all database interaction to new DBA interface. (M)
|
|
- Add support for GDBM as an alternative to BDB. (M)
|
|
- New DB interface to replace keeper calls. (M)
|
|
- Lots of AutoMake updates so that distros work again and external modules
|
|
have includes available. (M)
|
|
- StatServ: complete rewrite of statistics systems. (M)
|
|
- Very basic stats added to core for debug, reported in STATUS command. (M)
|
|
- Fix up memory leaks and missing list/hash clean ups. (M)
|
|
|
|
* NeoStats * Version 3.0.prealpha1
|
|
- First recommended release to devlist only as prealpha1. (M)
|
|
- New moddata API. We now have two values for use by modules, one being an
|
|
allocated address and one a value. This allows the core to clean up after
|
|
modules in the event that they fail to. (M)
|
|
- RTA support has been moved back itno the core rather than being a module.
|
|
It did work fine as a module, but was limited to providing core info only
|
|
since there is no module <-> module communication at this point and created
|
|
module depedencies. Making this a module will be looked at again at some
|
|
future point. (M).
|
|
- HostServ: Improved ban handling. (M)
|
|
- HostServ: LEVELS command removed since core now handles this. (M)
|
|
- All commands now have a configurable minimum user level using the command
|
|
/msg botname LEVELS. (M)
|
|
- HostServ: moddata use removed in favour of a simple flag in the core wrt
|
|
user SETHOST from NeoStats. (M)
|
|
- HostServ: BANS DEL now takes host as a parameter not an index. (M)
|
|
- HostServ: DEL and VIEW now take nick as a parameter not an index. (M)
|
|
- StatServ: add option to configure html update interval. (M)
|
|
- Add support for persistent bots which do not auto leave channel when it is
|
|
empty. (M)
|
|
- Remove NETINFO event. Not available on all ircds and useless since the
|
|
ModSynch call will let a module know the network is synched. (M)
|
|
- Make joining services channel a SET option so people can prevent NeoStats
|
|
bots joining the services channel. Generally, the bots can message channels
|
|
without being in them. With them not being there means we can drop
|
|
chanalerts when the channel is empty and save a bit of otherwise wasted
|
|
bandwidth. (M)
|
|
- USERDUMP etc commands changed to USERLIST etc to be consistent with similar
|
|
commands. (M)
|
|
- StatServ: updated to use core side kill types. (M)
|
|
- ConnectServ: updated to use core side kill types. (M)
|
|
- Process kill types within the core. (M)
|
|
- ConnectServ: add logging facility to log events. (M)
|
|
- Channel alerts for command use is now optional. (M)
|
|
- Automatically remove NeoStats bots from channels when there are no longer
|
|
any real users in the channel. The services channel is excluded. (M)
|
|
- Add neousers counter to Channel structure for tracking our bot counts in a
|
|
given channel. (M)
|
|
- Core command processor can now handle channel message commands e.g. !help
|
|
using the standard command tables. Command char is selectable via a SET
|
|
option. (M)
|
|
- Add new timer type TIMER_TYPE_COUNTDOWN. This is a one shot timer that
|
|
deletes itself after it has triggered. (M)
|
|
- Initial import of Language Functions. Two Macro's to use now, _(x) is for
|
|
default language, and __(x, Client*) is for user/channel language
|
|
settings. (F)
|
|
- More portability wrappers for file access since Win32 DLLs do not appear to
|
|
be able to use fopen etc locally. This also means we can look at using more
|
|
optimal Win32 native file processing calls. (M)
|
|
- NeoStats alloc/free functions updated. (M)
|
|
- Begin adding portability functions for file system calls, socket management
|
|
etc to make it easy for modules to be Win32 compatible. (M)
|
|
- Remove all SqlSrv code from core in preparation for moving to a module. (M)
|
|
- Alter CODERHACK dependency so it only requires a rebuild of auth.c rather
|
|
than potentially a reconfigure and full rebuild. (M)
|
|
- Change UserDump and ChanDump to use prefmsg rather than chanalert and remove
|
|
calls during error conditions to prevent flooding the services channel. (M)
|
|
- Extended and optimised mode support. (M)
|
|
- Ability to enable/disable events so that a module can "optimise" it's event
|
|
table based on options e.g. disabling ConnectServ sign watch can disable
|
|
the SIGNON event core side. (M)
|
|
- More flags added to event system to allow the core to automatically handle
|
|
exclusions of NeoStats clients and global exclusion entries. The module can
|
|
manipulate the current settings based on local options. (M)
|
|
- Add error field to Module structure so the core can flag a module as being
|
|
in an erroneous state and unload it at an opportune time. E.g. if a module
|
|
calls init_bot from ModInit, the call will fail gracefully and the module
|
|
will be automatically unloaded once the core rgains control. (M)
|
|
- EVENT_ONLINE removed with previous functionality available via a ModSynch
|
|
function. Advantages over the event are that it can return a failure status
|
|
if for example an init_bot call fails and we can unload the module. It also
|
|
means modules that do not need to use any other events can now ignore the
|
|
event sub system and the core can do less event checking. (M)
|
|
- neostats.cfg renamed to neostats.conf. This is to be more consistent with
|
|
other packages and to avoid someone using a config file from an older series
|
|
with NeoStats 3.0. (M)
|
|
- Combine standard and auth module load/unload systems so we can load and
|
|
unload auth modules easily. (M)
|
|
- Remove me.onchan since it is always set with me.synched so is redundant. (M)
|
|
- Replace me.synched references with IsNeoStatsSynched() for consistency. (M)
|
|
- Timers now have a new type field to select the standard interval timer or
|
|
a midnight timer. Other types to follow. (M)
|
|
- Timers now check module synched before running. (M)
|
|
- Event system now uses an array per module so that issuing an event is a
|
|
simple (and quick) table lookup rather than parsing the whole list each
|
|
time. This also makes it possible for modules to add and delete events while
|
|
running. (M)
|
|
- Core now handles synch checking for module events. If a module wants to
|
|
receive an event before synch complete, they just add a flag into the event
|
|
table and the core will always pass the flagged event along. (M)
|
|
- Some new list and hash functions to standardise list/hash code. (M)
|
|
- Fake deaf mode on IRCds that do not support it natively. (M)
|
|
- CTCP handling to send and process CTCPs easily. (M)
|
|
- Update events and group them by type so events.h is a more useful
|
|
development resource. (M)
|
|
- StatServ: Modify GeoIP for Win32 and add as a second version. (M)
|
|
- StatServ: GeoIP lib moved to own directory. (M)
|
|
- New debug levels of DEBUGRX and DEBUGTX to identify incoming and outgoing
|
|
messages. (M)
|
|
- Mode descriptions now handled core side so modules can share the information
|
|
rather than define local variants. (M)
|
|
- ConnectServ: mode reports now run from a table. (M)
|
|
- More core side UMODE support. (M)
|
|
- Add support for online bot realname, host and ident changes. (M)
|
|
- Add support for IRCd SETNAME, SETIDENT and SETHOST functions. (M)
|
|
- Add support for online bot nick changes. (M)
|
|
- Combined BOTCHANLIST command with BOTLIST command. (M)
|
|
- Remove redundant botchanhash code and tables. We can get this information
|
|
via the bot, users structure channel list. (M)
|
|
- Optimise bot quit paths. (M)
|
|
- Optimise bot and associated user links to reduce lookups. (M)
|
|
- Change module processing so we can have debug versions of DLLs. (M)
|
|
- New Client struct introduced which contains common elememts of Server and
|
|
User structs. Server and User specifics remain as substructs of Client. This
|
|
makes for simpler coding for the more common elements and allows us to
|
|
add additional clients without major changes to the core and API with new
|
|
substructs in the Client struct. (M)
|
|
- IRCD feature support is now self configuring based on whether a function
|
|
exists to handle a feature. This means less work for IRCd coders and allows
|
|
a protocol module to "emulate" a feature locally that would normally require
|
|
additional core support. (M)
|
|
- Mode processing code moved to modes.c/h (M)
|
|
- Module API inmprovements and core flow optimisations. Functions now pass
|
|
valid bot and user pointers rather than looking them up multiple times. (M)
|
|
- makeconf updated to reflect changes and some tidy ups (M)
|
|
- Depreciate some useless config items from neostats.cfg:
|
|
STATSERV_NETNAME - we do not use this and overwrite it when we get netinfo
|
|
NEOSTAT_HOST - Default to servername as host and allow online config
|
|
NEOSTAT_USER - Default to Neo and allow online config
|
|
This makes configuration easier (M)
|
|
- Extend BotInfo structure and simplify init_bot function to use extended
|
|
structure. (M)
|
|
- Add synched field to Module structure so modules can tell when they are
|
|
online without having to maintain local variables and can be taken offline
|
|
easily by the core. (M)
|
|
- Add automatic bot_info SET options. (M)
|
|
- Core command processor now uses a hash for SET options to speed up option
|
|
processing. (M)
|
|
- Add feature check to load modules so that modules will not load if the
|
|
selected protocol does not support a required feature. e.g. HostServ
|
|
required SVSHOST support. (M)
|
|
- Update auth modules so that they just calculate a level and leave the core
|
|
to decide whether it overrides a current level. (M)
|
|
- Reg nick support might not use mode +r so calculate the correct char when
|
|
loading IRCd and use variable for checking it. (M)
|
|
- Optimise UserLevel processing so after a user level is calculated it is then
|
|
a lookup rather than needing to recalculate every time. (M)
|
|
- Send STATS u request to incoming servers so we can store uptime info for
|
|
statistics. (M)
|
|
- Store client CTCP version reply in user struct so we can access it after the
|
|
event. (M)
|
|
- Send VERSION request to incoming servers so we can store version info for
|
|
statistics. (M)
|
|
- update hostserv to use match rather than fnmatch. (F)
|
|
- More autotools updates to shut it up some more, and improve build process (F)
|
|
- Update makeconf to generate a PROTOCOL line. (M)
|
|
- Update automake files for core and protocol to observe new protocol module
|
|
generation. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Add debug console to GUI version with redirects of STDOUT and STDERR
|
|
which depreciates the console version. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Add fnmatch to core since it does not exist on Win32. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Create protocol DLL files. (M)
|
|
- Protocol system is now modular and required loading of a protocol module via
|
|
neostats.cfg. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Macros for modules/core exports for DLL compatibility. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Create Win32 compatible dl_xxxx system for modules. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Generate core export library for use by modules. (M)
|
|
- New macro MSGTOK to use in protocol modules for MSG_*/TOK_* selection. (M)
|
|
- Core no longer depends on protocol specific headers. (M)
|
|
- Change protocol files to be more modular. Support functions accessed via
|
|
pointers. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Run NeoStats main code on a thread. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Add very basic GUI. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Disable fork. Windows handles processes differently. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Disable unsupported signal processing. (M)
|
|
- Win32: ADNS Win32 compatible library import. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Macros created for *nix function not available. (M)
|
|
- Win32: dl code disabled for first pass Win32 support. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Socket code updated to WinSock compatible calls. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Keeper KP_P reserved in Win32 so renamed to KP_PATH (M)
|
|
- Win32: #define around header files not available under Win32 (M)
|
|
- Win32: configwin32.h is a fixed config.h since Windows does not need
|
|
different ones. Creates problem of how to choose IRCd. (M)
|
|
- Win32: Early support for native compilation under MSVC .NET 2003 (M)
|
|
- Change init_bot so that in client mode, module commands and settings are
|
|
just added to the main bot. (M)
|
|
- Begin adding a client protocol so that NeoStats can connect as a normal
|
|
client rather than a server. (M)
|
|
- Split unreal and ultimate protocol files into ultimate2, ultimate3, unreal31
|
|
and unreal32 for easier maintainance. (M)
|
|
- Begin moving common mode defines to neostats.h from ircd specific files. (M)
|
|
- Channel key and limit modes now have explicit support rather than being
|
|
included in general mode parameters list. (M)
|
|
- Begin improved mode handling. Protocol module tables are parsed at boot into
|
|
a faster core lookup table. The speedup is based on the fact that more often
|
|
than not we lookup a mode char so we can index on this char rather than loop
|
|
through every mode multiple times looking for a match. (M)
|
|
- Import libtools wrappers for dynamic module support (F)
|
|
- Full AutoConf Support on the way. Core Compiles. Modules Dont yet (F)
|
|
- Remove hard coded protocol/feature references in StatServ and HostServ.
|
|
These are depreciated by the new soft protocol design and will use the new
|
|
protocol/feature references in the ModuleInfo struct where required. (M)
|
|
- Begin replacing old #define GOTFEATURE with new FEATURE and PROTOCOL systems
|
|
as part of soft protocol support. Currently it is still "hard" coded but
|
|
will eventually move to the soft support system (M)
|
|
- Replace spart_cmd with part_bot_from_chan function (M)
|
|
- Add BANDUMP command to display ban table (M)
|
|
- Remove debugtochannel and optimise code path of functions using it (M)
|
|
- Remove ssjoin_cmd and sjoin_cmd functions. All channel joins must use
|
|
join_bot_to_chan. (M)
|
|
- Remove snewnick_cmd function. All new users must be introduced using
|
|
init_bot (M)
|
|
- Change is_pub_chan so it returns TRUE for a public channel. (M)
|
|
- Begin IRCD "soft" protocol/feature design. (M)
|
|
- Remove old CMODE_CH_xxx and CMODE_FL_xxx defines that new sjoin system makes
|
|
redundant. (M)
|
|
- Host OS value now saved by configure for use in version reporting and for
|
|
bug reporting. (M)
|
|
- Add support for NOQUIT so that NeoStats can delete users from disconnected
|
|
servers without requiring individual QUITs (M)
|
|
- Add support to recurse server list for SQUIT so that NeoStats can delete
|
|
leaves of hubs which SQUIT (M)
|
|
- Tidy exported include files (via make install) to the currently required
|
|
minimum. (M)
|
|
- Added DEBUGMOD option which allows selective debugging of a module so we can
|
|
limit debug output to a single module when required. (M)
|
|
- Command line option -v now reports a full IRCd string in the version so we
|
|
no longer need the flag "help" text. (M)
|
|
this is now handled by IRCdAuth. (M)
|
|
- Removed -l (log level) command line option. This is now an online "SET"
|
|
option which saved and restored via config system. (M)
|
|
- Removed umode levels from IRCd protocol files and associated core code since
|
|
this is now handled by IRCdAuth. (M)
|
|
- ExtAuth: Added support for an access list system such that the master
|
|
service root can manage users who have access to NeoStats and their
|
|
individual levels. This removes the need for the older SERVICE_ROOTS options
|
|
which have been superseded with the new SERVICEROOT option for master root
|
|
and the access list maintained via IRC (M)
|
|
- Authentication modules are now optional again. A single service root is
|
|
required in the config file using a new SERVICEROOT option which follows the
|
|
format of the old SERVICE_ROOTS option but is singlular and renamed to
|
|
prevent upgraders relying on this working. This is used by the core to
|
|
provide at least one user with NeoStats access regardless of authentication
|
|
systems. (M)
|
|
- Add dlog function to handle debug messages. nlog is now purely for normal
|
|
logging purposes (M)
|
|
- Add DEBUGCHAN setting for sending debug messages to channel and DEBUGTOCHAN
|
|
setting to enable/disable it's use. (M)
|
|
- Reorganised me and config structures. (M)
|
|
- Debug mode is now a SET option rather than a command. (M)
|
|
- Add set command to NeoStats to set user mode for service bots.
|
|
/msg neostats set SERVICEBOTUMODE <mode>. default is defined in the IRCd
|
|
specific services_umode string. (M)
|
|
- Add set command to NeoStats to set channel mode for service bots.
|
|
/msg neostats set SERVICEBOTCMODE <mode>. default is defined in the IRCd
|
|
specific services_cmode string. (M)
|
|
- Add services_cmode string to IRCd protocol files to set default channel
|
|
modes for service bot that reflect IRCd capabilities to simplify sjoin
|
|
code and module code for joins. (M)
|
|
- New module auth system to support auth systems other than the 2.5 extauth.
|
|
The core is now unable to provide any authentication and an auth module must
|
|
be loaded. The old IRCd umode based auth is now a loadable module so is
|
|
optional. Where a module wants to have local control over authentication,
|
|
the 2.5.15+ ModAuth function has been renamed to ModLocalAuth to distinguish
|
|
it from auth only modules. New config load module options have been added
|
|
to support auth modules which require a slightly different style to standard
|
|
modules. templateauth provides the example code for auth modules. (M)
|
|
- configure now checks IRCD first so that if this required option is missed
|
|
the user will be told immediately rather than after all other checks. (M)
|
|
- Build process updates so that at configure time we only do what we need to
|
|
and reduce the number of config.h files we need to maintain. (M)
|
|
- New memory allocation wrappers functions scalloc, srealloc and sfree. (M)
|
|
- Add SET VERSIONSCAN option to core for CTCP version scanning. (M)
|
|
- StatServ: Optimise database save to further reduce code required and get
|
|
back a little CPU. (M)
|
|
- StatServ: Adjust exclusions so that counts are accurate. The exclusions
|
|
produced cases where the current channel count was greater than the network
|
|
record! (M)
|
|
- IRCd version suffix now handled by configure rather than code. (M)
|
|
- Introduce new debug.log system to store all current messages and debug info
|
|
to avoid corrupting main system logs when in debug mode and allow users to
|
|
submit this file for support rather than multiple ones from modules plus
|
|
core. (M)
|
|
- StatServ: reorganised code so stats code is encapsulated from module
|
|
specifics and introduced new burst request system during init. (M)
|
|
- Begin implementing "burst" request interface for modules to get current
|
|
user/channel/server etc lists. (M)
|
|
- Homogenize init error messages. (M)
|
|
- Update core support functions to use new run level system to determine
|
|
current module removing the need for modules to pass their module pointer
|
|
when adding bots/timers/socks etc. (M)
|
|
- Replace old segv_module system with new run level system. (M)
|
|
- Keeper subdirs are now subdirs of main data dir. (M)
|
|
- ConnectServ: reverse colour define so default is disabled. (M)
|
|
- Core modules now use core config loading system (M)
|
|
- All socket code now in socks.c for easier upgrade (M)
|
|
- Early support for module semi auto config designed to perform loading of
|
|
module config settings or set defaults without the module having to code it.
|
|
Due to the need for custom set values, we will likely have to call the core
|
|
function from the module rather than perform automatically at load time. (M)
|
|
- Command processor set routine broken into helper functions for easier
|
|
maintainance (M)
|
|
- Rewritten command processor to use new command structure (M)
|
|
- Moved signal code to signals.c/h (M)
|
|
- New structure for passing to commands and events (M)
|
|
- Removed NeoStats logs command since it is useless with multiple logs.
|
|
Possibly look onto a LogView module sometime in the future if there is
|
|
demand for this facility (M)
|
|
- Begin adding return value processing for commands so core can handle common
|
|
errors such as syntax error (M)
|
|
- HostServ: removed old database format support (M)
|
|
- Event system updates. Change type to int enum for faster processing. Some
|
|
events renamed to be closer to irc commands so meaning is more obvious for
|
|
module programmers and to assist the move from module_functions to events.
|
|
Enum type protects event system at compile time. (M)
|
|
- seperate auth system from main core so we can add new auth hooks (M)
|
|
- send_sjoin bug fix where user has no modes (M)
|
|
- Segfault reports are now directed to segfault.log rather than the main log
|
|
files for easier submission (M)
|
|
- subsystem structures now maintain a module pointer to lookup names rather
|
|
than copies of the string. We can now lookup modules via a quick pointer
|
|
compare rather than string compare and can access module information without
|
|
addition function overheads. (M)
|
|
- Modules must pass their module handle to the core for accessing bots/timers
|
|
etc, once all interfaces use this system, try to "automate" the handle using
|
|
some form of current_module/runlevel within the core (M)
|
|
- Core and modules now share bot init code (M)
|
|
- Updated bot interface to use a new bot_info structure (M)
|
|
- ExtAuth: remove old format support (M)
|
|
- Added instrinsic bot commands for ABOUT, CREDITS, VERSION (M)
|
|
- Logging scope is now automatic rather than requiring a specific option (M)
|
|
- Module support calls to access timers/bots/sockets etc must now pass
|
|
correctly typed function pointers rather than using core symbol lookups (M)
|
|
- dl.c/h split into files dedicated to a part of the module sytstem e.g.
|
|
bots.c. dl.c/h now becomes our wrapper library for handling libdl plus
|
|
future DLL and static support (M)
|
|
- Added some extra fields to channel, user and server structures for future
|
|
use (M)
|
|
- Point of no return. Legacy 2.5 systems are now broken. Some 2.5.15 compliant
|
|
systems will still work but all module backward compatibility has been
|
|
stripped.
|
|
- All core module changelogs moved to docs/old. Future core module updates
|
|
will be included in the main NeoStats changelog (M)
|
|
- Remove module API hacks (M)
|
|
- Remove legacy stats.h, API is now exported via neostats.h only (M)
|
|
- Depreciate support for __module_functions and associated ModuleFunction
|
|
overheads, version 3.0 will send information to modules via events only (M)
|
|
- Remove 2.5.5 and lower module compatibility systems (M)
|
|
- New source tree layout implemented (M)
|
|
- Begin version 3.0 development (M)
