Changelog for
ddcutil-service-1.0.9-1.1.x86_64.rpm :
* Thu Jun 13 2024 Michael Hamilton
- 1.0.9 - Fixed a GetCapabilitiesMetadata bug that caused some VCP features to lack metadata values. - Fixed the return of feature-name and feature-description from GetVcpMetadata. - Fixed potential hot-plug/DPMS polling memory leaks and simplified event locking. - Recoded hot-plug/DPMS polling to avoid a potential libddcutil assertion failure. - Fixed code/doc typos, improved code readability/structure, reduced IDE warnings. - Updated documentation to caution against excessive updates when coding loops, as this may impact VDU NVRAM lifespan. - Updated documentation to caution against experimenting with non-standard features, as it may risk damage to the VDU.
* Thu May 16 2024 Michael Hamilton - 1.0.7 - Slightly improved setvcp diagnostics. - Fix methods failing with return code DDCRC_OTHER (-3022) when only some i2c devices are accessible.
* Mon Apr 29 2024 Michael Hamilton - 1.0.6 - Add SetVcp/SetVcpWithContext NO_VERIFY (no retry) flag option. - Match the behaviour of the ddcutil command, default to verify-and-retry for all set-vcp method calls. - Default to verify-and-retry for all libddcutil versions. - Replace the stateful DdcutilVerifySetVcp property with the stateless NO_VERIFY flag. - Fix the ServiceFlagOptions property so that it lists all flag options. - Check the status returned by libddcutil ddca_init() and exit on error to prevent any inconsistent behaviour. - Cleanup the --prefer-polling and --prefer-drm options to make them consistent with each other.
* Fri Apr 12 2024 Michael Hamilton - 1.0.4 - Provide an API flag RETURN_RAW_VALUES which disables GetVcp high-byte masking of Simple Non-Continuous features. - Provide the --return-raw-values command line option for the same purpose.
* Mon Apr 01 2024 Michael Hamilton - 1.0.3 - Reduce unnecessary logging. - Improve the description of the service\'s signals in ddcutil-service.1. - Correct the typo in option name --perfer-drm (it was mistakenly called --prefer-dma). - For simple VCP-features, only return the low-byte, for some VDUs the high-byte might contain junk.
* Thu Feb 29 2024 Michael Hamilton - Version 1.0.2 - Added VcpValueChanged D-Bus signal which triggers if the SetVcp method succeeds. This is to allow multiple clients to be aware of changes made by each. - Added SetVcpWithContext which accepts a client-context to be returned with the VcpValueChanged signal. - ServiceEmitSignals renamed to ServiceEmitConnectivitySignals to avoid confusion. - Command line option --emit-signals renamed to --emit-connectivity-signals for the same reason. - Fix ServiceEmitSignals property assignment so that it correctly toggles hotplug signals. - Fix hotplug polling so that it remains an option no matter what version of libddcutil is in use.- Version 1.0.1 - Use gcc with -Wformat-security for safety and to match Arch and Ubuntu defaults. - Calling ddca_init() before verify_i2c() to fix runtime error for libddcutil >= 2.1.
* Thu Jan 18 2024 Michael Hamilton - Version 1.0.0
* Added an optional D-Bus interface to ddcutil for up 10x faster response times.
