System.Memory and mmap()
by Marcus Agehall (nu med K-m�rkt fastighet och ny elcentral) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 09 Jun '16

I'm looking to interface directly with GPIO-pins on a raspberry pi I just ran into something fishy in pike. It seems that our System.Memory.mmap() method tries to do a ton of checks before it actually calls mmap(). This is all good, until you try to map a device like /dev/gpiomem which is 0 bytes. Should we not attempt the system call and handle the error afterwards instead of trying to emulate safety checks beforehand? Or should we have a new mmap() method that works without the checks?

Pike 8.0.254 beta/release candidate
by Peter Bortas 07 Jun '16

07 Jun '16

Pike 8.0.254 beta/release candidate: https://pike.lysator.liu.se/pub/pike/beta/8.0.254/Pike-v8.0.254.tar.gz Other builds: https://pike.lysator.liu.se/pub/pike/beta/8.0.254/Pike-v8.0.254-Darwin-15.4… https://pike.lysator.liu.se/pub/pike/beta/8.0.254/Pike-v8.0.254-win32-oldli… SSL certificates where fixed up after last release, so if anyone gets any warnings there let me know. On the positive side I have found my big box of Windows licenses. On the negative side Windows Update must be some kind of anti-pattern for running in VMs. They have been installing updates for 3 days now, and are not finished yet. So no attempt at newer build environment quite yet. Changes since Pike 8.0.240 (release 3) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- New features ------------ o Protocols.WebSocket Added client mode. o _Roxen.HeaderParser feed() can now be forced not to normalize (ie lower_case) the header names. Bug fixes --------- o Documentation Fixed some AutoDoc markup typos. o Fixed assertion failure in multiset handling. Indexing of non-empty multisets containing no objects or functions, with an object implementing lfun::`<() et al could cause assertion failures. o Filesystem.Monitor Fixed potential recursive mutex locks on destroy(). -- Peter Bortas
