<h3>Sunday 21 March 2004</h3> |
36 |
< |
<p> |
37 |
< |
pystatgrab, a new package containing a set of Python bindings, |
38 |
< |
has been released. Check out it's <a href="/pystatgrab/">project |
39 |
< |
page</a>. |

<h3>Wednesday 10 March 2004</h3> |
43 |
< |
<p> |
44 |
< |
Version 0.9 of libstatgrab has been released.<br/> |
45 |
< |
Download it |
46 |
< |
<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.9.tar.gz">here</a>. |
47 |
< |
</p> |
48 |
< |
<p> |
49 |
< |
This release brings new features and new platforms. We've added |
50 |
< |
information about network interfaces (duplex, speed, etc) along |
51 |
< |
with further statistics such as i/o packets, i/o errors, and |
52 |
< |
collisions. Support has also been added for OpenBSD and DragonFly |
53 |
< |
BSD. Finally some work has been done to reduce the platforms on |
54 |
< |
which libstatgrab needs elevated privileges. See the NEWS file for |
55 |
< |
more information. |

<h3>Wednesday 11 February 2004</h3> |
59 |
< |
<p> |
60 |
< |
Version 0.8.2 of libstatgrab has been released.<br/> |
61 |
< |
Download it |
62 |
< |
<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.8.2.tar.gz">here</a>. |
63 |
< |
</p> |
64 |
< |
<p> |
65 |
< |
The main focus of this release is adding support for Solaris 6. |
66 |
< |
We've also added Python bindings so you can use libstatgrab directly |
67 |
< |
from Python (see the extras directory). Finally, we've tidied up a |
68 |
< |
few bits of the code. |
69 |
< |

<h3>Wednesday 21 January 2004</h3> |
72 |
< |
<p> |
73 |
< |
Version 0.8.1 of libstatgrab has been released.<br/> |
74 |
< |
Download it |
75 |
< |
<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.8.1.tar.gz">here</a>. |
76 |
< |
</p> |
77 |
< |
<p> |
78 |
< |
This release primarily fixes bugs. On Linux a file descriptor leak was |
79 |
< |
fixed. On Solaris some significant speed increases were made to the |
80 |
< |
disk mapping code, along with some bug fixes for Solaris 7 platforms. |
81 |
< |
Also, the library part of libstatgrab (but not the tools) is now |
82 |
< |
released under the LGPL instead of the GPL. |
83 |
< |
</p> |

<h3>Tuesday 6 January 2004</h3> |
86 |
< |
<p> |
87 |
< |
Version 0.8 of libstatgrab has been released.<br/> |
88 |
< |
Download it |
89 |
< |
<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.8.tar.gz">here</a>. |
90 |
< |
</p> |
91 |
< |
<p> |
92 |
< |
This release brings support for Linux 2.6 and partial support for Cygwin. |
93 |
< |
On Solaris libstatgrab now returns disk names using cNtNdNsN names rather |
94 |
< |
than the older sdN names. There are also a bunch of fixes and optimisations |
95 |
< |
in various places. Finally, a new function has been added to make it |
96 |
< |
quicker to drop any elevated privileges libstatgrab may require on some |
97 |
< |
operating systems. |

<h3>Wednesday 22 October 2003</h3> |
101 |
< |
<p> |
102 |
< |
Version 0.7 of libstatgrab has been released.<br/> |
103 |
< |
Download it |
104 |
< |
<a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.7.tar.gz">here</a>. |
105 |
< |
</p> |
106 |
< |
<p> |
107 |
< |
The most significant change in this release is support for NetBSD |
108 |
< |
1.6.x. Parts of the FreeBSD code have been optimised, and an initialise |
109 |
< |
function has been added to allow programs to drop any extra privileges |
110 |
< |
libstatgrab needs. The list of known file systems has been increased, |
111 |
< |
and libstatgrab has been tested on even more platforms. Finally, |
112 |
< |
saidar has been tweaked to work even if it can't get all the |
113 |
< |
statistics. |

<h2><a name="what">What is libstatgrab?</a></h2> |
160 |
< |
|
161 |
< |
<p> |
162 |
< |
libstatgrab is a library that provides cross platform access to |
163 |
< |
statistics about the system on which it's run. It's written in C and |
164 |
< |
presents a selection of useful interfaces which can be used to access |
165 |
< |
key system statistics. The current list of statistics includes CPU |
166 |
< |
usage, memory utilisation, disk usage, process counts, network |
167 |
< |
traffic, disk I/O, and more. |
168 |
< |
</p> |
169 |
< |
|
170 |
< |
<p> |
171 |
< |
The current list of platforms is Solaris 2.x, Linux 2.2/2.4/2.6, |
172 |
< |
FreeBSD 4.x/5.x, NetBSD 1.6.x, OpenBSD 3.x, DragonFly BSD 1.0, and |
173 |
< |
Cygwin. The aim is to extend this to include as many operating |
174 |
< |
systems as possible. |
175 |
< |
</p> |
176 |
< |
|
177 |
< |
<p> |
178 |
< |
The package also includes a couple of useful tools. The first, |
179 |
< |
<a href="#screenshot">saidar</a>, provides a curses-based interface to |
180 |
< |
viewing the current state of the system. The second, statgrab, gives a |
181 |
< |
sysctl-style interface to the statistics gathered by libstatgrab. This |
182 |
< |
extends the use of libstatgrab to people writing scripts or anything |
183 |
< |
else that can't easily make C function calls. Included with statgrab is |
184 |
< |
a script to generate an <a href="http://www.mrtg.org">MRTG</a> |
185 |
< |
configuration file to use statgrab. |

<h2><a name="documentation">Documentation</a></h2> |
206 |
< |
|
207 |
< |
<p> |
208 |
< |
The only online documentation we have at the moment is the manual |
209 |
< |
pages converted in to HTML format. It's probably best to start with |
210 |
< |
the overview manual page: |
211 |
< |
</p> |
212 |
< |
|
213 |
< |
<ul> |
214 |
< |
<li><a href="statgrab.html">statgrab(3)</a></li> |
215 |
< |
</ul> |
216 |
< |
|
217 |
< |
<p> |
218 |
< |
Then we have the manual pages for each function: |
219 |
< |

< |
|
221 |

<ul> |
222 |

system statistics, linux partition detection has been |

Support has been added for Solaris 10 and FreeBSD 7. |

The duplex value in the network interface statistics has |

changed name from "dup" to "duplex" - this breaks the API. |

This release consists almost entirely of bugfixes. |

We've fixed compile-time errors for recent OpenBSD and |
238 |

NetBSD platforms, and also a minor bug in statgrab |
239 |

that broke network statistics on Solaris. New |
240 |

variables have been added to the pkg-config file to |
241 |
> |
suggest ownership and permissions of binaries, and |
242 |
> |
we've added error reporting functions that store errno |
243 |
> |
values. There's also other minor fixes detailed in the |
244 |

NEWS file. |

This release concentrates heavily on standardising the names |
255 |
> |
of functions and structures throughout libstatgrab. Although |
256 |
> |
this will mean changes for existing programs, in the long run |
257 |
> |
we hope it'll make things both clearer and easier. However, |
258 |
> |
for those who still need the old functions we have provided |
259 |
> |
compatibility wrappers. See the NEWS file for details. |
260 |
> |
</p> |
261 |
> |
<p> |
262 |
> |
The other main change in this release is a new function to |
263 |
> |
provide full details on currently running processes. See the |
264 |
> |
documentation for sg_get_process_stats for details. Along with |
265 |
> |
this there are compare functions for use with qsort for sorting |
266 |
> |
process, network, and disk io statistics. We've also introduced |
267 |
> |
error reporting functions that allow calling applications to |
268 |
> |
see why libstatgrab has returned a failure. See sg_get_error. |
269 |
> |
</p> |
270 |
> |
<p> |
271 |
> |
Finally, we've added support for NetBSD 2.0 and tidied up lots |
272 |
> |
of areas of the code. This release does not include the python |
273 |
> |
bindings - they're now available as their own project called |
274 |

<a href="/pystatgrab/">pystatgrab</a>. |
