|
|
|
|
15 Aug 2001 -- 2.0.0 stable -- candidate release 1
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
AZ FIX: --fast now really sends 10packets/second, not 100. Thanks
|
|
to DD for the report.
|
|
AZ FIX: bzero/bcopy replaced with the sane memset/memcpy.
|
|
DG ADD: Solaris port, with the help of the patch contributed by
|
|
Steve Bleazard <steve@bleazard.com>
|
|
AZ ADD: Changed a bit the format (flags=S is now <S>) and add the string
|
|
DF if the don't fragment bit is on.
|
|
AZ FIX: waitpacket.c to take the data aligned. Now hping seems to
|
|
work without problems on linux/sparc.
|
|
AZ FIX: getifname.c, now even the linux version behaves better locking
|
|
for the interface address of the outgoing interface according
|
|
to the kernel routing table. getdefaultif.c removed, no loger used.
|
|
AZ FIX --tr-stop enhanced (now really exit when an expected packet that
|
|
was not an ICMP time exceeded was received)
|
|
AZ FIX: --stop-tr is now --tr-stop. All the traceroute mode options
|
|
starts with --tr.
|
|
AZ ADD: --tr-no-rtt to turn off RTT information in traceroute mode.
|
|
Thanks to Denis Ducamp for the idea.
|
|
AZ FIX: Now provide traceroute RTT information even with ICMP.
|
|
AZ ADD: --stop-tr stops hping in traceroute mode once the first non
|
|
ICMP packet is received. Thanks to Denis Ducamp for the idea.
|
|
AZ ADD: ICMP subnet address mask support. Not tested.
|
|
AZ ADD: TCP timestamp support with HZ and uptime guessing (--tcp-timestamp)
|
|
AZ ADD: ICMP timestamp support (--icmptype 13)
|
|

|
|
YB NH AZ FIX: ICMP ID handling on systems with 32 bit pids.
|
|
DD ADD: Man page update (not french one!)
|
|
AZ ADD: --traceroute now prints RTT information.
|
|
AZ ADD: --traceroute now implies --ttl 1 if no --ttl option is specified.
|
|
AZ ADD: --fast option that is an alias for -u i10000 (10 packets at second)
|
|
MM ADD: ets.* interface (thanks to Stefano Brandimarte.)
|
|
AZ FIX: compilation problem (NULL used without including stdlib.h in getusec.c)
|
|
AZ FIX: -H switch (alternative to --protoip) thanks to
|
|
"roy kozzer" <royk50@hotmail.com>
|
|
MM FIX: Man page grammatical mistakes, thanks to Jason Lunz <j@trellisinc.com>,
|
|
I applied the patch by hand, so maybe some mistake is still inside.
|
|
FP FIX: fixed rtt/sequence number handling, now hping6 can run for hours
|
|
keeping the right rtt calculation. Some sentence from the original
|
|
Francesco's email:
|
|
|
|
I am using it to make long measurements of the response times of http
|
|
servers around the world, so hping6 keeps running for days. In fact, it
|
|
is apparently impossible to use hping6 this way, as the sequence number
|
|
wraps around (and this may be okay, in principle) and the program goes
|
|
astray.
|
|
|
|
Precisely, the delay measurements are set to 0 after the wrap around.
|
|
Since hping6 is written so cleanly (thanks), I was able to quickly
|
|
correct the problem:
|
|
(strange, I think hping6 is very hugly code... I wrote it with
|
|
too little coding experience)
|
|
|
|
BTW now the issue is fixed, MANY thanks to Francesco Portori'.
|
|
|
|
DD FIX: -seqnum (endianess IIRC) fixed.
|
|
DD FIX: Random fix to manpage and code.
|
|
NJ FIX/ADD: BSD network interfaces related code.
|
|
DD ADD: French translation of the hping documentation, under docs/french/
|
|
|
|
6 July 2000 -- 2.0.0 beta54, raw IP mode, bug fixing, NetBSD support, ...
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Solaris support still not present, a patch was provided by
|
|
Lorenzo Lazzieri but I did not have a solaris box to perform
|
|
some test, give me some solarix 2.[67] root account if you
|
|
need hping6 ported to solaris. Sorry, but my sparc S4 died
|
|
not long ago.
|
|
|
|
FIX: the stupid nop.c no longer exist.
|
|
FIX: tcp sequence number and ack visualization bug for lacks of ntohl()!
|
|
FIX: minor coding bugs fixed, minor code cleanup
|
|
FIX: man pages path now is obtained from MANPATH
|
|
FIX: new *BSD ethernet under getlhs.c
|
|
ADD: NetBSD support (thanks to Yann Berthier)
|
|
ADD: settable checksum
|
|
ADD: now TCP sequence number and ack are settable.
|
|
SA ADD: bad checksum option (-b --badcksum).
|
|
ADD: settable fragment offset.
|
|
ADD: raw IP mode.
|
|
ADD: out of sequence packets counter (only with -r option).
|
|
ADD: documentation updated and a bit improved.
|
|
|
|
20 Nov 1999 -- 2.0.0 beta 53, important bug fixed
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Contrary to my hope this beta go out without Solaris support nor deep
|
|
testing under BSD systems. This because beta-53 FIX: some important bugs
|
|
so I think it's better to release it as soon as possible. I hope that
|
|
beta-54 will be more tested under BSD and will contain a first Solaris
|
|
support. Please, send me bug report/suggestions first beta-54 release, AZ
|
|
|
|
AZ ADD: man page updated.
|
|
AZ FIX: a very dirty bug introduced in hping6-beta49, it was in waitpacket.c,
|
|
all offset was computed using the ip header length of the last packet, and
|
|
for the first incoming packet using uninitialized bytes. I suggest you
|
|
upgrade ASAP.
|
|
AZ ADD: enhanced configure and Makefile. Now "./configure; make" should
|
|
be enough at least under Linux, FreeBSD and OpenBSD. configure has options,
|
|
try ./configure --help. Also FIX: a `make clean' issue.
|
|
AZ FIX: a bug in rtt.c, in some circumstance it returned a negative rtt,
|
|
also ADD: an initial sanity check for faster problem tracing in rtt.c.
|
|
Now sent packets are registered into 'delay table' *before* of sending, I
|
|
think this isn't the better way to do a good timing, but since original ping
|
|
program use this way and it avoids some problem hping now use this solution.
|
|
AZ FIX: parseoptions.c, some parser fix and more limits for non root users.
|
|
AZ ADD: better hgetopt.c, now it's possible to combine short options like
|
|
-S -F etc in -SF. The same kind of bug seems still unfixed in gcc and ssh.
|
|
AZ if_promisc.c no longer compiled/linked since it isn't used by hping6.
|
|
I leave this file here for possible future new features. It will be needed
|
|
only for Linux since to set promiscuous mode with libpcap it is not useful.
|
|
AZ ADD:/FIX: getlhs.c updated, now system dependent, BSD ethernet names
|
|
updated thx to Rui Miguel Barbosa Machado <rmbm@rccn.net>,
|
|
FIX: BSD PPP link header size (I hope). Please send me a mail if you
|
|
successfully run hping6 under PPP interface on BSD.
|
|
AZ ADD: new `utils' directory added and the simple utility hex2bin
|
|
AZ ADD: distribution enhanced, CHANGES was extracted from TODO, MIRRORS contain
|
|
a mirrors list, BUGS the bug report form, others files added.
|
