2012-12-26

	* Fix the flag logic on paxctl-ng and clean up documenation
	* Encapsulate all forward/reverse linkings in class LinkMap in link_map.py
	* Use the portage module instead of reading /var/db/pkg for link info
	* Use NEEDED.ELF.2 instead of deprecated NEEDED for link info

2012-12-21

	* Change the name XT_PAX to XATTR_PAX to follow upstream everywhere
	except in this document.

2012-12-16

	* Add logic for NEED_PAX_DECLS when gelf.h is present but lacks them
	As of >=glibc-2.16 gentoo no longer carries PAX_DECLS in elf.h
	* scripts/paxmodule.c: do not use '-' when setting null XATTR PAX flags
	* scripts/paxmodule.c: adopt the update_flags() logic of paxctl-ng.c
	* scripts/paxmodule.c: adopt the parse_cmd_args() logic of paxctl-ng.c
	* scripts/revdep-pax: clean up flag exporter/importer logic
	* added tests/paxmodule: test python pax module
	* added up tests/pxtpax: do marked flags <-> running process testing
	* added tests/revdeppaxtest: test revdep-pax
	* Tests now give proper return values and are not verbose by default

2012-11-10

	* fix a typo in revdep-pax script and documentation
	* make both PT_PAX and xattr PAX optionally enabled/disabled in
	configure.ac and propagated to src/paxctl-ng.c and script/paxmodule.c
	* add -L -l which limits markings to only PT_PAX or XT_PAX when
	both are possible
	* add -d which deletes the XT_PAX xattr field
	* silently ignore non-applicable command line flags so there is
	more flexibility in scripting
	* add proper exit code handling

2012-07-29

	* remove unnecessary check for yasm in configure.ac
	* make tests/gnustack machine independant by generating
	native assembly using gcc

2012-07-27

	* switch from yasm to gcc for assembler for arches other than
	x86 and amd64
	* opening an ELF_C_RDWR does not work for either libelf or
	elfutils, so revert to ELF_C_RDWR_MMAP.  This does, however,
	break linking against libelf

2012-07-24

	* scripts/{revdep-pax,paxmodule.c,pypaxctl}: python2/3 compat
	* src/{fix-gnustack.c,paxctl-ng.c}, scripts/paxmodule.c:
	switch from ELF_C_RDWR_MMAP to ELF_C_RDWR to link again libelf
	for uclibc systems
	* scripts/revdep-pax: remove bare exception handling, catch only
	exceptions which are well understood, eg pax.error
	* scripts/revdep-pax: switch from subprocess.check_output to
	subprocess.Popen for better behavior
	* scripts/revdep-pax: add sanity checks for missing OBJECT, SONAME,
	and LIBRARY passed on the command line
	* scripts/revdep-pax: simplify map reversal using setdefault to
	avoid a double loop

2012-07-21

	* scripts/revdep-pax: add option to only print out executables,
	not libraries
	* scripts/revdep-pax: allow for a more complex logic in migrating
	flags from source to target.  When the source says nothing about a
	flag, the target's options survive
	* misc/test-revdep-pax: add revdep-pax test code
	* src/paxctl-ng.c: remove RANDEXEC completely.  Its completely missing
	from XT_PAX so remove it from PT_APX as well.
	* src/paxctl-ng.c: switch to string implementation of XT_PAX following
	upstreams implementation in the kernel
	* scripts/paxmodule.c: switch to string implementation of XT_PAX
	* scripts/pypaxctl: a (too?) simple front end to test python module
	* src/paxctl-ng.c, scripts/paxmodule.c: create xattr user.pax.flags when
	trying to set XT_PAX flags when the field doesn't already exit

2011-12-28

	* misc/test-revdep-pax: added a test package for revdep-pax
	* scripts/revdep-pax: added an allyes option
	* scripts/revdep-pax: employ a more sophisticated logic for markings
	when binary and library flags conflict
	* scripts/revdep-pax: die elegantly if binary/library is not found

2011-12-04

	* src/paxctl-ng.c: add exception handling when trying to pax.setflags
	* src/paxctl-ng.c: make -e (report/mark only executables) filter output
	from either verbose or non-verbose output

2011-11-26

	* src/paxctl-ng.c: made verbosity more consistant
	* src/paxctl-ng.c: build with/without xattr support
	* scripts/{setup.py,paxmodule.c}: build with/without xattr support
	* configure.ac: added --enable-xattr switch
	* scripts/revdep-pax: add -e switch to only mark (-m) or to
	only report on (-v) binaries that are in the shell's PATH
	* tests/pxtpax: compare pax flags on binary and process
	* fix-gnustack and paxctl-ng: fix exit code on success
	* paxctl-ng: add file globbing
	* paxctl-ng: if a file fails to open O_RDWR then
	don't do PT_PAX markings but continue with XT_PAX

2011-10-23

	* add XT_PAX read/write in paxct-ng.c and paxmodule.c
	* create and/or copy XT_PAX flags to/from PT_PAX in paxctl-ng.c
	* clean up error handling in paxctl-ng.c
	* remove EI_PAX doc and add XT_PAX doc

2011-10-17  Anthony G. Basile <blueness@gentoo.org>

	* add search by full library path in revdep-pax
	* add pax_setflags to paxmodule.c
	* add setflags to mismatched binaries/libraries in revdep-pax
	* removed EI_PAX markings, bug #387459

2011-10-12  Anthony G. Basile <blueness@gentoo.org>

	* Move actions for options to functions
	* Add two levels of verbosity

2011-10-08  Anthony G. Basile <blueness@gentoo.org>

	* Add python pax module and revdep-pax
	* Add poc/paxmark-libs
