-Version 1.2 (August 10, 2009)
+The old NEWS file.
------------------------------
 
-* (August 02 2009) Alexander Lamaison:
+NEWS is now generated from git and put into the release tarballs.
-
- - changed _libssh2_rsa_new_private and _libssh2_rsa_new_private so that they
-   no longer use the OpenSSL functions that take a FILE* argument.  Passing
-   CRT-created objects across a DLL boundary causes crashes on Windows of the
-   DLL and the client aren't linked to the exact same verison of the CRT. Now
-   we pass the keys as strings to avoid this issue.
-
-* (May 29 2009) Daniel Stenberg:
-
- - Updated the knownhost API and there are now 9 functions, and all of them
-   have man pages. The libssh2.h now defines HAVE_LIBSSH2_KNOWNHOST_API to
-   ease things for applications to check for the correct release before trying
-   to use it.
-
-* (May 23 2009) Daniel Stenberg:
-
- - Anonymous bug report #2795816 revealed that doing subsequent
-   libssh2_sftp_init() calls on the same session failed.
-
-* (May 20 2009) Daniel Stenberg:
-
-  - made libssh2_sftp_write() properly deal with huge/any sized input buffers.
-
-  - fixed libssh2_channel_write_ex() to return the correct return code, and
-    deal with sending off huge buffers better
-
-* (May 7 2009) Daniel Stenberg:
-
-  - linked list code. I got a bit tired of the fact that we don't have any
-    generic linked-list functions within libssh2 so I wrote up the first embryo
-    for one that I use for this new functionality. The plan would then be to
-    move all existing code that uses linked lists to use this new set.
-
-  - base64 encode. I had to add a base64 encoding function which was missing
-    in the code base so it helps to "bloat" my patch.
-
-  - The knownhost API is currently:
-
-    _init() - init a bundle of known hosts
-    _add()  - add a known host
-    _del()  - delete a known host
-    _free() - free an entire bundle of known hosts
-    _check() - check if a host+key is present in the bundle
-
-    The convenience function:
-
-    _parsefile() - reads a ~/.ssh/known_hosts file and add all entries to the
-                   given bundle
-
-   - there's no docs other than some comments in the code/headers yet
-
-  - the patch includes changes to example/simple/ssh2_exec.c that makes use of
-    a few of these functions. Using that I've verified that the functions in
-    fact can verify my localhost's key agains my ~/.ssh/known_hosts file
-
-* (Apr 30 2009) Daniel Stenberg:
-
-  Markus posted a bug report about a bad 0-return from libssh2_channel_read:
-  http://libssh2.haxx.se/mail/libssh2-devel-archive-2009-04/0076.shtml
-
-  And it was indeed a bad loop that terminated too early due to a receveived
-  close packet.
-
-* (Apr 14 2009) Daniel Stenberg:
-
-  libssh2_poll() and libssh2_poll_channel_read() are now considered and
-  documented deprecated and they will be removed at next soname bump. It also
-  saves us from fixing some rather quirky bugs in libssh2_poll()...
-
-
-Version 1.1 (April 2, 2009)
----------------------------
-
-- (Mar 28 2009) Daniel Stenberg:
-
-  Jean-Louis Charton found a memory leak in
-  libssh2_userauth_hostbased_fromfile_ex()
-
-- (Mar 25 2009) Daniel Stenberg:
-
-   * Renamed the functions in src/transport.c to be _libssh2_transport_ prefixed
-     and introduced a transport.h header.
-
-   * Fixed the blocking mode to only change behavior not the actual underlying
-     socket mode so we now always work with non-blocking sockets. This also
-     introduces a new rule of thumb in libssh2 code: we don't call the
-     external function calls internally. We use the internal (non-blocking)
-     ones!
-
-   * libssh2_channel_receive_window_adjust2 was added and
-     libssh2_channel_receive_window_adjust is now deprecated
-
-   * Introduced "local" header files with prototypes etc for different parts
-     instead of cramming everything into libssh2_priv.h. channel.h is the
-     first.
-
-- (Mar 19 2009) Daniel Stenberg: based on a patch by "E L" we now use errno
-  properly after recv() and send() calls (that internally are now known as
-  _libssh2_recv() and _libssh2_send()) so that the API and more works fine on
-  windows too!
-
-- (Mar 17 2009) Simon Josefsson:
-
-  Added a Libtool -export-symbols-regex flag to reduce the number of
-  exported symbols in shared libraries.  Reported by Mikhail Gusarov.
-
-- (Mar 16 2009) Daniel Stenberg:
-
-  I renamed a few man pages to match the exact name of the functions they
-  describe. I also added template versions for the 13 functions that
-  previously lacked man pages. While these don't contain any docs just yet, it
-  will now be easier to add the info as the foundation is there!
-
-- (Mar 15 2009) Daniel Stenberg:
-
-  * libssh2_channel_read_ex() was simplified and enhanced. It now adjusts the
-    window less frequent and uses much larger window that now allows MUCH
-    faster transfers.
-
-  * SCP send/recv now allow file names with whitespaces etc, thanks to a patch
-    by Heiner Steven
-
-- (Mar 13 2009) Daniel Stenberg: Cleanups, that do seem to have boosted SFTP
-  download performance up to 300% in some tests:
-
-  * cut off "_ex" from several internal function names
-
-  * corrected some log outputs
-
-  * simplified libssh2_channel_read_ex() and made it much faster in the process
-
-  * cut out {{{ and }}} comments that were incorrect anyway
-
-  * fixed sftp_packet_ask() to return the correct packet by using memcmp() and
-    not strncmp()
-
-  * fixed mkdir()'s wait for packet to use the correct request_id - it
-    semi-worked previously because strncmp() in sftp_packet_ask() made it
-    match far too easily.
-
-  * took away the polling functionality from sftp_packet_ask() since it wasn't
-    used
-
-- (Mar 7 2009) Olivier Hervieu pointed out a flaw in the
-  libssh2_channel_x11_req_ex() function that made it produce a crappy random
-  chunk of data. Peter Stuge improved the fix to not do out-of-boundary
-  writes. I (Daniel Stenberg) replaced the snprintf() with a plain sprintf()
-  since the size argument wasn't adding anything anyway.
-
-- (Feb 23 2009) Added libssh2_version()
-
-- (Feb 20 2009) libssh2_channel_direct_tcpip_ex() bug #1902169 fixed, which
-  caused it to fail when called a second time.
-
-- (Feb 12 2009) Romain Bondue extended Markus Moeller fix from Feb 8, based on
-  a previous (uncommitted) patch by Erik Brossler. It improves
-  libssh2_channel_write_ex in blocking situations when the socket is set non-
-  blocking.
-
-- (Feb 8 2009) Markus Moeller fixed a flaw in libssh2_channel_write_ex() that
-  would occur on EAGAIN situations.
-
-Version 1.0 (December 26 2008)
-------------------------------
-
-- (Dec 20 2008) Based on Alexander Lamaison's patch, there's now a new
-  function called libssh2_sftp_tell64() that returns the 64 bit file offset,
-  as the existing libssh2_sftp_tell() only returns a size_t.
-
-- (Dec 18 2008) Markus Moeller fixed the issue also reported by Alexander
-  Lamaison which caused SFTP reads with large buffers to fail.
-
-- Several flaws were fixed that prevented at least SFTP to work reliably
-
-- Vlad Grachov brought the new function called
-  libssh2_session_block_directions() which returns a bitmask for what
-  directions the connection blocks. It is to be used applications that use
-  non-blocking sockets and when a libssh2 function returns
-  LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN this function can be used to figure out in which
-  direction the socket would block and thus it can wait for the socket to
-  again be ready for communication in that direction before it calls libssh2
-  again.
-
-- Vincent Jaulin brought the new libssh2_channel_request_pty_size_ex()
-  function.
-
-- Carlo Bramini fixed the build for msys+mingw. Bug #1943976.
-
-- Neil Gierman provided improved Visual Studio 2008 code in bug #1946268
-
-- Bug #1862727 fixed libssh2_poll() to work on windows (by defining
-  HAVE_SELECT).
-
-- Based on bug #1815692, we introduce libssh2_sftp_seek64() that allows
-  seeking beyond the 2GB margin even on 32bit machines.
-
-- Based on a patch in bug #1878059 by Steven Ayre libssh2 now parses >2GB file
-  sizes when downloading SCP files.
-
-- Bug #2064371 pointed out that the SSH2 banner may not use dash
-  ('-'). Reported by Bjorn Stenborg.
-
-- Sean Peterson fixed a key re-exchange bug:
-  http://daniel.haxx.se/projects/libssh2/mail/libssh2-devel-archive-2008-06/0002.shtml
-
-- Mike Protts filed the bug report #1908724 that identified and fixed a problem
-  with SFTP stat on files >4GB in size. Previously it used 32bit math only.
-
-- Removed a stderr debug message that was accidentally left in (bug #1863153)
-
-- OpenSSL and libz detection changed to make cross-compiling to Mingw
-  work.  See README for parameters to use if the auto-detection does
-  not work for you.  From Simon Josefsson.
-
-- Simon Josefsson added a self-test that uses libssh2 to connect to a
-  local sshd (only enabled if if OpenSSH is installed).
-
-Version 0.18 (November 11 2007)
--------------------------------
-
-- Various changes that improve non-blocking operations and prevent stalls.
-  Especially noticable on Windows since libssh2 just didn't work properly
-  non-blocking on Windows before.
-
-- Peter O'Gorman reported how a SCP transfer would hang for him, and it was
-  fairly easy reproducable. One bug was in the transport layer, ignoring to
-  read more data while there was data left even though it couldn't decrypt the
-  data that was left due to it being too little... The other bug was in the
-  channel layer, where the libssh2_channel_receive_window_adjust() function
-  missed to set the state variables at times and thus this function would
-  misbehave on repeated invokes.
-
-- Changed the signature of libssh2_channel_setenv_ex to add const to the
-  "varname" parameter (Dan Fandrich)
-
-- Satish Mittal and David J Sullivan fixed an infinit recv() loop in
-  libssh2_banner_receive()
-

+Buffering Improvements
+======================
+
+transport_write
+
+  - If this function gets called with a total packet size that is larger than
+  32K, it should create more than one SSH packet so that it keeps the largest
+  one below 32K
+
+sftp_write
+
+  - should not copy/allocate anything for the data, only create a header chunk
+  and pass on the payload data to channel_write "pointed to"
+
+New Transport API
+=================
+
+THE PROBLEM
+
+The problem in a nutshell is that when an application opens up multiple
+channels over a single session, those are all using the same socket. If the
+application is then using select() to wait for traffic (like any sensible app
+does) and wants to act on the data when select() tells there is something to
+for example read, what does an application do?
+
+With our current API, you have to loop over all the channels and read from
+them to see if they have data. This effectively makes blocking reads
+impossible. If the app has many channels in a setup like this, it even becomes
+slow. (The original API had the libssh2_poll_channel_read() and libssh2_poll()
+to somewhat overcome this hurdle, but they too have pretty much the same
+problems plus a few others.)
+
+Traffic in the other direction is similarly limited: the app has to try
+sending to all channels, even though some of them may very well not accept any
+data at that point.
+
+A SOLUTION
+
+I suggest we introduce two new helper functions:
+
+ libssh2_transport_read()
+
+ - Read "a bunch" of data from the given socket and returns information to the
+   app about what channels that are now readable (ie they will not block when
+   read from). The function can be called over and over and it will repeatedly
+   return info about what channels that are readable at that moment.
+
+ libssh2_transport_write()
+
+ - Returns information about what channels that are writable, in the sense
+   that they have windows set from the remote side that allows data to get
+   sent. Writing to one of those channels will not block. Of course, the
+   underlying socket may only accept a certain amount of data, so at the first
+   short return, nothing more should be attempted to get sent until select()
+   (or equivalent) has been used on the master socket again.
+
+I haven't yet figured out a sensible API for how these functions should return
+that info, but if we agree on the general principles I guess we can work that
+out.
+
+VOLUNTARY
+
+  I wanted to mention that these two helper functions would not be mandatory
+  in any way. They would just be there for those who want them, and existing
+  programs can remain using the old functions only if they prefer to.
+
+New SFTP API
+============
+
+PURPOSE
+
+ Provide API functions that explicitly tells at once that a (full) SFTP file
+ transfer is wanted, to allow libssh2 to leverage on that knowledge to speed
+ up things internally. It can for example do read ahead, buffer writes (merge
+ small writes into larger chunks), better tune the SSH window and more. This
+ sort of API is already provided for SCP transfers.
+
+API
+
+ New functions:
+
+    LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *libssh2_sftp_send(SFTP_SESSION *sftp,
+                                           uint64_t filesize,
+                                           char *remote_path,
+                                           size_t remote_path_len,
+                                           long mode);
+
+ Tell libssh2 that a local file with a given size is about to get sent to
+ the SFTP server.
+
+    LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *libssh2_sftp_recv();
+
+ Tell libssh2 that a remote file is requested to get downloaded from the SFTP
+ server.
+
+ Only the setup of the file transfer is different from an application's point
+ of view. Depending on direction of the transfer(s), the following already
+ existing functions should then be used until the transfer is complete:
+
+ libssh2_sftp_read()
+ libssh2_sftp_write()
+
+HOW TO USE
+
+ 1. Setup the transfer using one of the two new functions.
+
+ 2. Loop through the reading or writing of data.
+
+ 3. Cleanup the transfer

+
+\fIhost\fP is a pointer the host name in plain text or hashed. If hashed, it
+must be provided base64 encoded. The host name can be the IP numerical address
+of the host or the full name.
+
+If you want to add a key for a specific port number for the given host, you
+must provide the host name like '[host]:port' with the actual characters '['
+and ']' enclosing the host name and a colon separating the host part from the
+port number. For example: \&"[host.example.com]:222".
+
+\fIsalt\fP is a pointer to the salt used for the host hashing, if the host is
+provided hashed. If the host is provided in plain text, salt has no meaning.
+The salt has to be provided base64 encoded with a trailing zero byte.
+
+\fIkey\fP is a pointer to the key for the given host.
+
+\fIkeylen\fP is the total size in bytes of the key pointed to by the \fIkey\fP
+argument
+
+\fIcomment\fP is a pointer to a comment for the key.
+
+\fIcommentlen\fP is the total size in bytes of the comment pointed to by the \fIcomment\fP argument
+

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Checks a host and its associated key against the collection of known hosts,
+and returns info back about the (partially) matched entry.
+
+\fIhost\fP is a pointer the host name in plain text. The host name can be the
+IP numerical address of the host or the full name.
+
+\fIport\fP is the port number used by the host (or a negative number
+to check the generic host). If the port number is given, libssh2 will
+check the key for the specific host + port number combination in
+addition to the plain host name only check.
+
+\fIkey\fP is a pointer to the key for the given host.
+
+\fIkeylen\fP is the total size in bytes of the key pointed to by the \fIkey\fP
+argument
+
+\fItypemask\fP is a bitmask that specifies format and info about the data
+passed to this function. Specificly, it details what format the host name is,
+what format the key is and what key type it is.
+
+The host name is given as one of the following types:
+LIBSSH2_KNOWNHOST_TYPE_PLAIN or LIBSSH2_KNOWNHOST_TYPE_CUSTOM.
+
+The key is encoded using one of the following encodings:
+LIBSSH2_KNOWNHOST_KEYENC_RAW or LIBSSH2_KNOWNHOST_KEYENC_BASE64.
+
+\fIknownhost\fP if set to non-NULL, it must be a pointer to a 'struct
+libssh2_knownhost' pointer that gets filled in to point to info about a known
+host that matches or partially matches.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+\fIlibssh2_knownhost_check(3)\fP returns info about how well the provided
+host + key pair matched one of the entries in the list of known hosts.
+
+LIBSSH2_KNOWNHOST_CHECK_FAILURE - something prevented the check to be made
+
+LIBSSH2_KNOWNHOST_CHECK_NOTFOUND - no host match was found
+
+LIBSSH2_KNOWNHOST_CHECK_MATCH - hosts and keys match.

 Get or Set statbuf type data for a given LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE instance.
+.SH DATA TYPES
+LIBSSH2_SFTP_ATTRIBUTES is a typedefed struct that is defined as below
+
+.nf
+struct _LIBSSH2_SFTP_ATTRIBUTES {
+
+    /* If flags & ATTR_* bit is set, then the value in this
+     * struct will be meaningful Otherwise it should be ignored
+     */

+    /* size of file, in bytes */
+    libssh2_uint64_t filesize;
+
+    /* numerical representation of the user and group owner of
+     * the file

+    /* bitmask of permissions */
+    unsigned long permissions;
+
+    /* access time and modified time of file */
+    unsigned long atime, mtime;
+};
+.fi
+
+You will find a full set of defines and macros to identify flags and
+permissions on the \fBlibssh2_sftp.h\fP header file, but some of the
+most common ones are:
+
+To check for specific user permissions, the set of defines are in the
+pattern LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_I<action><who> where <action> is R, W or X for
+read, write and excutable and <who> is USR, GRP and OTH for user,
+group and other. So, you check for a user readable file, use the bit
+\fILIBSSH2_SFTP_S_IRUSR\fP while you want to see if it is executable
+for other, you use \fILIBSSH2_SFTP_S_IXOTH\fP and so on.
+
+To check for specific file types, you would previously (before libssh2
+1.2.5) use the standard posix S_IS***() macros, but since 1.2.5
+libssh2 offers its own set of macros for this functionality:
+.IP LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_ISLNK
+Test for a symbolic link
+.IP LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_ISREG
+Test for a regular file
+.IP LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_ISDIR
+Test for a directory
+.IP LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_ISCHR
+Test for a character special file
+.IP LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_ISBLK
+Test for a block special file
+.IP LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_ISFIFO
+Test for a pipe or FIFO special file
+.IP LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_ISSOCK
+Test for a socket
 .SH RETURN VALUE
