From fp at igh-essen.com Mon Dec 29 17:29:02 2008 From: fp at igh-essen.com (Florian Pose) Date: Mon, 29 Dec 2008 17:29:02 +0100 Subject: [etherlab-announce] EtherCAT Master 1.4.0 released Message-ID: <20081229162902.GA30369@yak.igh-essen.int> Dear users of the IgH EtherCAT master, I'm happy to announce the final release 1.4.0 of the EtherCAT master. The late Christmas present can be downloaded from: http://etherlab.org/download/ethercat-1.4.0.tar.bz2 http://etherlab.org/download/ethercat-1.4.0.tar.bz2.sig or http://etherlab.org/en/ethercat/index.php The changes since release candidate 3 are mostly bug fixes: * Fixed race condition in jiffy-based frame timeout calculation. * Fixed race condition concerning the ec_slave_config_state->operational flag. * Fixed wrong calculation of the expected working counter if the process data of a domain span several datagrams. * Fixed a kernel oops when a slave configuration is detached while the actual configuration is in progress. * Fixed typo in logging output. * Removed 'bashisms' from init script ('function' keyword). * Fixed bug in e1000 drivers. Memory was allocated when sending the first frame. * Modified licence headers to avoid conflicts with the GPL. * Restricted licence to GPLv2 only. * Fixed spelling of 'PDO', 'SDO' (all uppercase) and 'xx over EtherCAT' (without hyphens). * Made domain pointer parameter of ecrt_domain_size() const. As you can see, some changes have been made concerning the GPL headers. The former EtherCAT license paragraph has been replaced with a note about Beckhoff's brand and industrial property rights, that does not conflict with the GPL. Moreover the term "or (at your option) any later version" was removed to restrict the licence to the GPLv2 only. -- Best regards, Florian Pose http://etherlab.org -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
