Subject: [PATCH 02/10] Goodbye CHANGELOG, welcome NEWS
5f4333
5f4333
The CHANGELOG file as it exists today is essentially redundant with
5f4333
git log. It's not really user friendly, and duplicates the work on
5f4333
the committer side.
5f4333
5f4333
Delete that file, and replace it with a more structured NEWS file,
5f4333
listing only the most relevant changes in each version. The contents
5f4333
would be pretty much the same as the release announcements.
5f4333
5f4333
This initial version covers most past releases.

5f4333
-
5f4333

5f4333
-
5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c, dmiopt.c, dmidecode.8: Option --dump is only a
5f4333

5f4333
-
5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c, dmidecode.h, dmiopt.c, dmiopt.h: Don't use function
5f4333

5f4333

5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c: Do not print the BIOS base address and runtime size
5f4333
-	  if the base address is 0. This happens on IA-64 because there's
5f4333
-	  no BIOS.
5f4333
-	* Makefile, README: Do not build biosdecode, ownership and
5f4333
-	  vpddecode on IA-64, as IA-64 systems have no BIOS. This was
5f4333
-	  quite tricky to keep both GNU make and BSD make happy, but it
5f4333
-	  seems that I finally succeeded.

5f4333
-	  type 9).
5f4333
-
5f4333

5f4333
-
5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c: Add chassis types "CompactPCI" and "AdvancedTCA"
5f4333
-	  (DMI type 3).
5f4333

5f4333

-2007-02-12  Jean Delvare  <jdelvare@suse.de>
5f4333
-
5f4333
-	* dmioem.c: Share the code between HP-specific types 209 and 221.
5f4333
-	  Both types are really the same, only the title is different.
5f4333
-	* dmioem.c: Make the HP-specific types 209 and 221 output a bit
5f4333
-	  more verbose.
5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c: Let --type decode OEM-specific entries when
5f4333

5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c: Do not complain about truncated entries in quiet
5f4333
-	  mode.
5f4333
-	* dmioem.c: Decode HP-specific type 204 entries in a safer way:
5f4333
-	  check the length before decoding, and don't assume that all
5f4333
-	  strings are provided in the same order as they are used.
5f4333
-
5f4333
-	Update to support Intel AP-485 (CPUID) revision 31 (was 28).

5f4333
-	* Makefile, dmidecode.c, dmidecode.h, dmioem.c, dmioem.h: Move the
5f4333

5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c: DMI type 38 is tested by now.
5f4333
-	* dmioem.c: The PCI function is typically represented as a single
5f4333
-	  digit.
5f4333
-	* Makefile, dmiopt.c, vpdopt.c, util.h: Define an ARRAY_SIZE macro
5f4333

5f4333
-	  relevant.

5f4333
-	  non-C99 compilers.
5f4333

5f4333
-
5f4333

-2006-05-10  Jean Delvare  <jdelvare@suse.de>
5f4333
-
5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c: Don't cast from u8* to dmi_header*, else
5f4333
-	  architectures which do not support unaligned memory accesses
5f4333
-	  may break. Instead, copy the members individually. That's a
5f4333
-	  bit slower, but that's also safer and we only need to do it
5f4333
-	  once per DMI entry, so it's not time critical. So far, we
5f4333
-	  were using a trick to later work around the unaligned memory
5f4333
-	  access, but the compiler would still warn about the risk,
5f4333
-	  which is always confusing.
5f4333
-	* config.h, types.h, README: Automatically enable the unaligned
5f4333
-	  memory access workaround on ia64.
5f4333
-	* types.h: Inline U64. It makes sense per se and also lets us
5f4333
-	  get rid of a warning about U64 being unused.
5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c: Detect EFI at run-time rather than compilation-
5f4333
-	  time. Based on an original patch from Matthew Garrett. This
5f4333
-	  will make x86 binaries work for both PC systems with BIOS and
5f4333
-	  Macintosh systems with EFI. Also prevent a possible, though
5f4333
-	  unlikely, NULL-pointer dereference in the EFI code.

5f4333
-	* vpddecode.c: The mysterious last character of xSeries records
5f4333

5f4333
-	  non zero, and ask users to report.
5f4333

5f4333
-2006-01-20  Jean Delvare
5f4333
-
5f4333
-	* vpddecode.c: Assume a constant length of 12 characters for the
5f4333
-	  "Default Flash Image File Name" entry. The 13th character never
5f4333
-	  contained anything useful, so it probably has a different
5f4333

5f4333
-	  of 16-byte boundaries. This is needed for some eServer xSeries
5f4333
-	  206. Still emit a warning if a VPD record is found not on a

-	* biosdecode.c: Fix a potential (but highly improbable) buffer
5f4333

5f4333
-	* biosdecode.c: Change the xSeries checksumming method to
5f4333
-	  accommodate a strange xSeries 440 VPD record, as was done in
5f4333
-	  vpddecode.c some weeks ago. Do not display the default flash
5f4333
-	  image file name anymore, it's not so useful and the field length
5f4333

5f4333
-	* vpdopt.c, vpdopt.h: New.
5f4333
-	* Makefile, vpddecode.c, vpdopt.c, vpdopt.h: Move the command line
5f4333
-	  handling of vpddecode to a separate source file.
5f4333

5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c, dmiopt.c, dmiopt.h, Makefile: Make it possible
5f4333
-	  for --string to print decoded binary data rather than only
5f4333
-	  DMI strings. Add four such string keywords.
5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c, dmiopt.c, dmiopt.h: Modify the opt structure

5f4333
-	* dmiopt.c: Complain about unknown options again.
5f4333

5f4333
-	* dmidecode.c: Suppress one level of indentation in the output,

5f4333
-2005-06-14  Jean Delvare
5f4333

5f4333

+  - (biosdecode) Support of the FJKEYINF entry point type (for Fujitsu laptops).
5f4333
+  - (vpddecode) The product name look-up table was dropped. It was unreliable
5f4333
+    and a burden to maintain.
5f4333
+  - biosdecode, ownership and vpddecode are no longer built on IA-64.
5f4333

5f4333
+Version 2.8 (Sat Feb 04 2006)
5f4333
+  - Option --string has four additional keywords available:
5f4333
+    system-uuid, chassis-type, processor-family and processor-frequency.
5f4333
+    These needed additional work because, technically speaking, they are
5f4333
+    not DMI strings.
5f4333
+  - IPMI interface type SSIF was added. This is a new interface type
5f4333
+    defined by IPMI 2.0.
5f4333
+  - (vpddecode) New --string option, much similar in spirit to
5f4333
+    dmidecode's. Available keywords are bios-build-id, box-serial-number,
5f4333
+    motherboard-serial-number, machine-type-model and bios-release-date.
5f4333
+  - (vpddecode) 9 product names were added to the lookup table.
5f4333
+  -  A few bug fixes, cleanups and minor improvements all around the place.
5f4333
+
5f4333
+Version 2.7 (Thu Aug 04 2005)
5f4333
+  - New command line interface. For example, it is now possible to limit
5f4333
+    the output of dmidecode to a given DMI type, or to extract a single
5f4333
+    string from the DMI table. The documentation has been updated
5f4333
+    accordingly.
5f4333
+  - The default output of dmidecode was slightly modified to be more
5f4333
+    easily readable by humans. This might break tools parsing its output.
5f4333
+    Such tools may benefit from the new command line interface, although
5f4333
+    this interface shouldn't be considered stable until version 2.8.
5f4333
+  - (vpddecode) New command line interface.
5f4333
+  - (vpddecode) 6 product names were added.
5f4333
+
