+## Changes made on the 7.0 branch since 7.0.9

-## Changes made on the 7.0 branch since 7.0.8.1
+__Add new items below here__

-### DBE_PROPERTY event rate changed
+### Reduce symbol and macro pollution from epicsAtomic.h on WIN32

-Updating property fields now only post DBE_PROPERTY events if the
+`epicsAtomic.h` no longer pulls in as many unneeded declarations and macros from
+`windows.h`. Prior to this change, including `epicsAtomic.h` at the wrong time
+could result in unexpected compiler errors. Due to the nature of `windows.h`,
+some unneeded declarations are still pulled in, however the number is greatly reduced.
+Code that needs these declarations should explicitly include `windows.h` before `epicsAtomic.h`.
+
+### epicsExport simplifications
+
+`epicsExportAddress()`, `epicsExportRegistrar()` and `epicsRegisterFunction()`
+no longer require to be wrapped in `extern "C" { }` in C++ code.
+
+### New `dbServerStats()` API for iocStats
+
+A new routine provides the ability to request channel and client counts from
+named server layers that implement the `stats()` method, or to get a summary
+of the counts from all registered server layers. A preprocessor macro
+`HAS_DBSERVER_STATS` macro is defined in the `dbServer.h` header file to
+simplify code that needs to support older versions of Base as well.
+
+-----
+
+## EPICS Release 7.0.9
+
+### Core documentation published at ReadTheDocs
+
+The `documentation` directory's `Makefile` can now run various publication scripts including Sphinx and Doxygen to generate formatted documentation that is now being published
+[at docs.epics-controls.org](https://docs.epics-controls.org/projects/base/en/latest/index.html)
+and integrated into the main [EPICS Documentation website](https://docs.epics-controls.org/en/latest/index.html).
+The best place to find out more about these mechanisms is the
+[Contribution Guide](https://docs.epics-controls.org/en/latest/CONTRIBUTING.html)
+although it doesn't currently cover the new processes added to epics-base.
+
+Much of the documentation generated from .dbd.pod files at build time is now
+also being converted into MarkDown (.md) files and installed into the top-level
+`doc` directory. Some users might find it quicker to look up information about a
+record type by opening these files in a text editor intead of opening a browser
+and loading the HTML versions or finding and opening the files from the EPICS
+Documentation site.
+
+### Post monitors from compress record when it's reset
+
+Writing into a compress record's `RES` field now posts a monitor event instead
+of only changing `VAL`. Monitor clients will therefore receive an empty array.
+
+### The AMSG error message propagates through MSS links
+
+A database link with the MSS attribute will now propagate not only SEVR and
+STAT, but also AMSG. This field contains additional information that complements
+STAT. Links with MS or MSI attributes do not propagate STAT, and therefore do
+not propagate AMSG, either.
+
+Channel Access links do not propagate AMSG, regardless of the MSS attribute,
+because the message is not available as Channel metadata.
+
+### Reloading record aliases
+
+Aliases can now be defined more than once as long as they still refer to the
+same record, unless the global variable `dbRecordsOnceOnly` is non-zero.
+This allows database files to be loaded multiple times, even if they contain
+alias definitions.
+
+### `DBE_PROPERTY` event rate changed
+
+Updating property fields now only posts `DBE_PROPERTY` events if the
 field actually changed.

+### Changes to msi related to include paths
+
+There are two changes to `msi` included here.
+
+`msi` now treats files included by .template or .substutiions files in a more
+consistent way: for relative paths, it will always look relative to the current
+working directory if no `-I` flags are passed, and if they are passed then it
+will search for the _relative_ path from each of those flags. That is, the
+following will now find the file `bar.template` located at
+`/some/path/rel/path/bar.template`
+```
+$ cat foo.substitutions
+file rel/path/bar.template {
+ # contents
+}
+$ msi -I /some/path foo.substitutions
+```
+
+Note that this does provide one change from previous behaviour: when opening a
+file from the command line, `msi` will not use the `-I`-specified paths to
+search for the file, but will only work relative to the current working
+directory, consistent with most commandline utilities.
+
 ### Allow users to delete previously created records from the database

 From this release, record instances and aliases that have already been loaded
 by an IOC can be removed from the database again before the call to iocInit
 by loading a second instance of the named records but using `"#"` in place of
 the record type. Values for the fields are not required or advised, just use
-an empty record body { }. This is useful when a template defines records that
+an empty record body `{}`. This is useful when a template defines records that
 are not wanted in some IOCs, without having to split or duplicate the original
 template.

 For example this will remove the record named "unwanted":

 ```
-record("#", "unwanted") { }
+record("#", "unwanted") {}
 ```

+### Only keep readline history for interactive sessions
+
+Previously, all IOCsh commands were persisited in the libreadline history
+(when readline support is included).
+Going forward, only interactive commands are saved.
+
+### Type change to asTrap serverSpecific data
+
+Change `void*` to `dbChannel*` in `asTrapWriteBeforeWithData()` and
+`asTrapWriteMessage::serverSpecific` to reflect the reality since
+the `dbAddr*` to `dbChannel*` migration.
+External code wishing to support both before and after 3.15 should
+already be conditionally casting to/from the appropriate type.
+
+### Fix issues with `_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3`
+
+This release fixes the false positives failures whhen building with `_FORTIFY_SOURCE` level 3.
+The override introduced in 7.0.8.1 has been removed.
+
+### Other
+
+- genVersionHeader: work with git submodules and worktrees.
+- avoid UB with self `pthread_join()`
+- freebsd: Add support for x86 and amd64 builds
+- Clear AMSG when SEVR becomes zero.
+- `seqRecord` fix support for link `DLY0`
+- Add `ABORT_ON_ASSERT` flag to `CONFIG_SITE_ENV`
+- rationalize osdMutex
+
+### Submodule updates
+
+The pvDatabase module was updated to version 4.7.2:
+
+* Resolved issue with changed field set in the case where the top level (master)
+field ("_") is not requested by the client, but the master field callback causes
+all fields to be marked as updated, rather than only those fields that have
+actually been modified.

+
+  `_[distributor=group:<group id>;set:<set_id>;trigger:<field_name>;updates:<n_updates>;mode:<update_mode>]`
+
+  The plugin parameters are optional and are described bellow:
+
+  - group: this parameter indicates a group that client application belongs to (default value: "default"); groups of clients are completely independent of each other
+
+  - set: this parameter designates a client set that application belongs to within its group (default value: "default")
+
+  - trigger: this is the PV structure field that distinguishes different channel updates (default value: "timeStamp"); for example, for area detector images one could use the "uniqueId" field of the NTND structure
+
+  - updates: this parameter configures how many sequential updates a client (or a set of clients) will receive before the data distributor starts updating the next one (default value: "1")
+
+  - mode: this parameter configures how channel updates are to be distributed between clients in a set:
+    - one: update goes to one client per set
+    - all: update goes to all clients in a set

This meant that you could not, for example, do ``` $ cat foo.substitutions file rel/to/bar.template { } $ msi -I /some/path foo.substitutions ``` where our template file is located at `/some/path/rel/to/bar.template`. Note that relateive paths work differently on Windows, so we carve out an exception there.	2024-12-29 16:34:10 -08:00

Jure Varlec	d0cf47cd6f	Propagate AMSG through MSS links MS and MSI links do not propagate STAT and therefore do not propagate AMSG, either. CA, CP and CPP links also do not propagate AMSG, but the reason is technical: the message is not available over Channel Access.	2024-12-11 09:38:02 -06:00
