    1 v3.0.720 (10 Jan 2022)
    2 	- Improve graphs on mobile (thanks to Dallen Wilson).
    3 	- Add favicon, improve CSS (thanks to Daniel Aleksandersen).
    4 	- Export host statistics in Prometheus format on /metrics
    5 	  (thanks to flowblok).
    6 	- Move to github.
    7 
    8 v3.0.719 (24 May 2015)
    9 	- Implement tracking of remote ports: shows which ports the host
   10 	  is making outgoing connections to. Long time feature request.
   11 	- Bugfix: when the capture interface goes down, exit instead of
   12 	  busy-looping forever.
   13 	- Fix "clock error" due to machine reboot.
   14 	- SIGUSR1 now resets the time and bytes reported on the graphs
   15 	  page.
   16 	- Account for all IP protocols.
   17 	- Change the default ports_max to only twice the default
   18 	  ports_keep.
   19 
   20 v3.0.718 (25 January 2014)
   21 	- (SECURITY!) Don't chroot() by default.  The user must specify
   22 	  a --chroot dir for this to happen now.
   23 	- Bring back the "--base /path" functionality.
   24 	- Add explicit warning about graphs being blank if we can't get
   25 	  local IPs on an interface.
   26 	- Don't crash in timer_stop() if monotonic time stops or goes
   27 	  backwards.
   28 	- Lots of internal cleanups.
   29 	- Use time_t instead of "long" for time.  This is more correct
   30 	  and should fix darkstat on OpenBSD 5.5 on 32-bit systems.
   31 
   32 v3.0.717 (14 August 2013)
   33 	- (OS X only) Work around lack of clock_gettime().
   34 	- Fix crash due to str_appendf() not understanding %ld.
   35 
   36 v3.0.716 (8 August 2013)
   37 	- Implement support for multiple capture interfaces.
   38 	- Support multiple local IPs on an interface.
   39 	- Only error out if we fail to create all HTTP sockets.
   40 	  In particular, this helps on IPv6-incapable platforms.
   41 	- Use monotonic time over wall time where appropriate.
   42 	- Portability fixes for NetBSD and OpenBSD.
   43 
   44 v3.0.715 (January 2012)
   45 	- Compatibility fixes for Hurd and Solaris.
   46 	- Use link-time optimization and automake-like silent rules.
   47 	- Support systems without ifaddrs.h again.
   48 	- Continuing fixes for IPv6 support.
   49 	- Only update lastseen time for sender, not recipient.
   50 	- Implement --local-only: accounting for hosts on the local net.
   51 	- Make failure to bind() a socket non-fatal.
   52 	- Make failure to get local IP non-fatal.
   53 	- Fall back to gethostbyaddr() if getnameinfo() fails.
   54 	- Fix detection of IPv4 multicast addresses.
   55 	- Fix decoding on OpenBSD DLT_NULL interfaces (e.g. gif(4))
   56 
   57 v3.0.714 (June 2011)
   58 	- IPv6 support!  Big ups to Mats Erik Andersson who did most
   59 	  of this work!
   60 	- Allow sort on last-seen, thanks to Dirk Koopman.
   61 	- Support multiple bind addresses.
   62 	- Add --disable-debug configure flag, thanks to Malte S. Stretz.
   63 	- Make it possible to export the database without resetting it:
   64 	  by sending SIGUSR2.
   65 	- Web: Use relative URLs, so darkstat works properly
   66 	  behind mod_proxy, thanks to Malte S. Stretz.
   67 
   68 v3.0.713 (March 2010)
   69 	- Don't require --verbose for pcap_stats.
   70 	- Survive interface going down on Linux.
   71 	- Support DLT_RAW, implemented by Anton S. Ustyuzhanin.
   72 	- Skip accounting for hosts or ports if their max
   73 	  is set to zero.
   74 	- Implement --hexdump for troubleshooting.
   75 	- Web: Implement --no-lastseen
   76 	- Implement --snaplen manual override.
   77 	- Fix snaplen problem on recent (1-2 years?) Linux kernels.
   78 	- Implement --syslog
   79 	- Implement --wait as a NetworkManager workaround.

   84 	- Web: Add --no-macs option to hide mac addresses.
   85 	  Thanks Dennis!
   86 	- Web: Make tables prettier.
   87 	- Host detail view now triggers a DNS lookup.
   88 	- Manpage tweaks, also move from section 1 to section 8.
   89 	- Track and show how long ago a host was last seen.
   90 	  Suggested by: Prof A Olowofoyeku (The African Chief)
   91 	- Show pcap_stats (like number of packets dropped) in the web
   92 	  interface and also upon exit.
   93 
   94 v3.0.711 (August 2008)
   95 	- Split --debug into --verbose and --no-daemon
   96 	- Include launchd config and instructions for running darkstat
   97 	  on Mac OS X.  Contributed by Damien Clauzel.
   98 	- Implement PPPoE decoding on ethernet iface. (--pppoe)

  108 	  Thanks Dennis!
  109 	- Fix rare use-after-free resulting from hosts table reduction.
  110 	- Make hosts limit configurable (--hosts-max)
  111 	- Option to read from capfile as alternative to live capture

  123 	- Make chroot dir configurable on cmdline (--chroot)
  124 	- Make privdrop user configurable on cmdline (--user)
  125 	- Implement daylog (brings back a v2 feature)
  126 	- Import and export hosts and graphs, this brings back a fairly
  127 	  major v2 feature.  Big ups to Ben for doing a lot of the

  129 	  Note that the v3 database format is, by design, incompatible
  130 	  with the v2 format.
  131 	- Report average KB/s in and out on graphs.
  132 	  Thanks to Damian Lozinski for suggestion and first cut at the
  133 	  implementation.

  138 	  handle daemons in this manner.
  139 
  140 v3.0.619 (Apr 2007)
  141 
  142 	- Decode DLT_PPP and DLT_PPP_SERIAL on NetBSD,
  143 	  patch courtesy of Bartosz Kuzma.

  159 	  argument to suppress it.
  160 	- Commandline arg (-l) to graph traffic entering/leaving the
  161 	  local network as opposed to just the local IP.  v2 had this.

  163 	- Web: new color scheme.
  164 
  165 v3.0.540 (Aug 2006)

  168 	- Fix build on AIX (thanks Andreas)
  169 	- Fix build warnings on NetBSD (thanks Bartosz)
  170 	- Deny writes to BPF socket (thanks Can)
  171 	- Reverse-resolve IPs less aggressively.
  172 	- Free up the DNS queue as we process it.
  173 	- Fix dns_reply silliness.
  174 	- Web: tweak the look of the top bar.
  175 	- Web: update total packets and bytes as part of graph update.
  176 	- Decode DLT_LINUX_SLL (ippp0 on Linux),
  177 	  patch courtesy of Ingo Bressler
  178 
  179 v3.0.524 (Jul 2006)
  180 
  181 	- Fix build on NetBSD.
  182 	- Fix shutdown on Linux.
  183 	- Performance improvements.
  184 	- Free the mallocs.
  185 	- Work around BPF being immediate on Linux.
  186 	  This improves performance.
  187 	- Drop privileges when we don't need them.  Chroot.  Generally
  188 	  be more paranoid.  Thanks to Chris Kuethe for patches and
  189 	  inspiration.
  190 	- Daemonize.  (run in the background)
  191 	- Graphs: Make the entire bar have the same label (instead of
  192 	  different labels for in/out), add thousands separators for
  193 	  legibility, include the position/index (i.e. day 22)
  194 	- Instead of reducing the hosts_db based on time, do it based on
  195 	  its size.
  196 	- Implement somewhat better handling of time moving backwards -
  197 	  we assume that real time is monotonic and just renumber the
  198 	  graph bars.  (time is hard)
  199 	- Greatly improve IPC with the DNS child, make it more efficient
  200 	  and much more robust.
  201 	- Decode DLT_PPP_ETHER (pppoe0 on OpenBSD), patch courtesy of
  202 	  Claudio Leite.
  203

  205 
  206 	First public release of darkstat 3.  Almost a complete rewrite
  207 	since v2.6.  Architecture much improved, better portability and
  208 	stability.  Approximate feature parity with v2, missing
  209 	loading/saving DB.
  210 
  211 v2.6 (Nov 2003)
  212 
  213 	End of the line for darkstat 2.
