Package strxnet-0.9.2.10 was released under GPLv2 2007-03-15.
The OpenSS7 XTI/TLI Networking package for Linux Fast-STREAMS is an
implementation of the X/Open Trasnport Interface or SVID Transport Layer
Interface library in accordance with SUSv2 and XNS 5.2 standards. It
consists of user-space libraries (libxnet) and a set of cooperating
STREAMS modules (timod(4) and tirdwr(4)). The STREAMS module, timod(4),
is pushed on any Stream implementing the Transport Provider Interface
(TPI) Revision 1.5 or 2.0.0 service interface and provides XTI/TLI
library access to the transport provider. Definitions for the Transport
Provider Interface (TPI) Revision 2.0.0 are also provided by header
files included in the package.
The package contains the following standard Open Systems Interconnect
(OSI) conforming header files:
- <sys/tiusr.h> TPI Version 2.0.0 user
- <sys/tihdr.h> TPI Version 2.0.0 kernel
- <sys/ticots.h> TPI COTS
- <sys/ticots_ord.h> TPI COTS w/ Orderly Release
- <sys/ticlts.h> TPI CLTS
- <xti.h> XTI/TLI Library
- <xti_inet.h> XTI/TLI Library
Note that the Data Link Provider Interface (DLPI) and Network Provider
Interface are contained in the strxns-0.9.2.5 package.
The package builds and installs the following STREAMS kernel modules and
drivers:
- streams_timod.ko module "timod"
- streams_tirdwr.ko module "tirdwr"
timod(4)
a STREAMS XTI/TLI compatibility interface.
tirdwr(4)
a STREAMS XTI/TLI read write compatibility module.
The package builds and installs the following shared object and static
libraries:
libxnet(3)
XNS 5.2 XTI/TLI Library (libxnet)
The OpenSS7 XTI/TLI Networking package includes kernel modules, SVR 4.2
STREAMS drivers, modules, libraries, utilities, test programs, daemons,
and development environment for the development and execution of OpenSS7
XTI/TLI Networking protocol stack components and applications for the
SVR 4.2 STREAMS environment.
This OpenSS7 Project release is another separate release of the OpenSS7
XTI/TLI Networking that were formerly part of the strinet package.
These networking modules provide TPI and XTI/TLI library, as well as
providing TPI and XTI header files. The package contains all the
necessary manual pages and other documentation, including a reprint of
the TPI 1.5 specification, for XTI components. The package is packaged
as an OpenSS7 style autoconf tarball.
This release is a stable, production grade release for Linux
Fast-STREAMS and is part of the OpenSS7 Master Package
(openss7-0.9.2.E).
This release is primarily a maintenance release to support recent
distributions and tool chains.
Major features since the last public release are as follows:
- Improvements to the common build environment with better support for
standalone package builds on 2.4 kernels.
- Support for autoconf 2.61, automake 1.10 and gettext 0.16.
- Support for Ubuntu 6.10 distribution and bug fixes for i386 kernels.
- The package now looks for other subpackages with a version number as
unpacked by separate tarball.
This is a public stable production grade release of the package: it
deprecates previous releases. Please upgrade to the current release
before reporting bugs.
As with other OpenSS7 releases, this release configures, compiles,
installs and builds RPMs and DEBs for a wide range of Linux 2.4 and 2.6
RPM- and DPKG-based distributions, and can be used on production kernels
without patching or recompiling the kernel.
This package is publicly released under the `GNU General Public License
Version 2'. The release is available as an autoconf tarball, SRPM, DSC,
and set of binary RPMs and DEBs. See the downloads page
(http://www.openss7.org/download.html) for the autoconf tarballs, SRPMs
and DSCs. For tarballs, SRPMs, DSCs and binary RPMs and DEBs, see the
strxnet package page (http://www.openss7.org/strxnet_pkg.html).
See http://www.openss7.org/codefiles/strxnet-0.9.2.10/ChangeLog and
http://www.openss7.org/codefiles/strxnet-0.9.2.10/NEWS in the release for
more information. Also, see the `strxnet.pdf' manual in the release
(also in html http://www.openss7.org/strxnet_manual.html).
