Changes for APR 1.5.2
*) SECURITY: CVE-2015-1829 (cve.mitre.org)
APR applications using APR named pipe support on Windows can be
vulnerable to a pipe squatting attack from a local process; the extent
of the vulnerability, when present, depends on the application.
Initial analysis and report was provided by John Hernandez of Casaba
Security via HP SSRT Security Alert. [Yann Ylavic]
*) apr_atomic: Fix errors when building on Visual Studio 2013 while

Follow up to PR 49882. [Jeff Trawick, Yann Ylavic]

apr_skiplist_remove_all(). [Yann Ylavic]
*) apr_pollset: On z/OS, threadsafe apr_pollset_poll() may return
"EDC8102I Operation would block" under load.
[Pat Odonnell <patod us.ibm.com>]
*) On z/OS, apr_sockaddr_info_get() with family == APR_UNSPEC was not
returning IPv4 addresses if any IPv6 addresses were returned.
[Eric Covener]
*) Windows cmake build: Fix an incompatibility with cmake 2.8.12 and
later. [Jeff Trawick]
*) apr_global_mutex/apr_proc_mutex: Resolve failures with the
POSIX sem implementation in environments which receive signals.
[Jeff Trawick]
*) apr_skiplist: Fix potential corruption of skiplists leading to
results or crashes. [Takashi Sato <takashi tks st>, Eric Covener]
PR 56654.
*) Improve platform detection by updating config.guess and config.sub.
[Rainer Jung]
Changes for APR 1.5.1
*) apr_os_proc_mutex_get() on Unix: Avoid segfault for cross-
process pthread mutexes. [Yann Ylavic <ylavic.dev gmail.com>]
*) When using shmget-based shared memory, the ID used for ftok is
now an APR hash of the filename instead of the constant '1'.
We do this to help avoid collisions. PR 53996 [Jim Jagielski]
*) apr_socket_atreadeof(): Fix breakage on OS X. [Jim Jagielski]
*) Fix POSIX shared memory (shm_open) use for named shared memory.
Includes adding '--enable-posix-shm' to force POSIX shm if
available, and OS X compatibility. PR 55928.
[Jozef Hatala <jh-asf skrt org>, Jim Jagielski]
*) Fix race condition when calling apr_dir_make_recursive from
multiple threads on Windows.
[Bert Huijben]

blocking sockets in some applications, including httpd. [Jeff
Trawick]
*) Windows cmake build: Fix incorrect installation of some .pdb
files. Fix incorrect use of some logic intended for Windows 9x,
including legacy filesystem interfaces and dynamic loading of
some Windows APIs. [Jeff Trawick]
*) apr_skiplist: Add compatibility with C++ applications.
[Jeff Trawick]
*) Correct a regression in 1.5.0 which affected out-of-tree
builds on Unix. [Rainer Jung]
*) Improve platform detection by updating config.guess and config.sub.
[Rainer Jung]
Changes for APR 1.5.0
*) Fix Linux kernel version check to recognize more versions,
including versions 3.10 and later. PR 55690. [Joe Orton,
Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis <arfrever.fta gmail.com>]
*) Add apr_sockaddr_is_wildcard() to check if a socket address
refers to the wildcard address for the protocol family (e.g.,
0.0.0.0/INADDR_ANY for IPv4). [Jeff Trawick]
*) apr_file_dup2() on Windows: Fix debug RTL assertion when
attempting to _commit(stdout) or _commit(stderr). [Mike Rumph
<mike.rumph oracle.com>]
*) apr_socket_connect() on Windows: Handle WSAEISCONN. PR 48736.
[<inoue ariel-networks.com>, Jeff Trawick]
*) z/OS: threadsafe apr_pollset_poll support for sockets [Greg Ames]
*) Windows: Don't obtain a mutex for buffered file I/O unless the
file was opened with the APR_FOPEN_XTHREAD flag. [Ivan Zhakov
<ivan visualsvn.com>]
*) Windows: Create named shared memory segments under the "Local"
namespace if the caller is unprivileged, fixing an inability of
unprivileged callers to use apr_shm_create() with named shared
memory segments under recent Windows. As before, shared memory
segments are created under the "Global" namespace for privileged
callers. Add apr_shm_create_ex() and apr_shm_attach_ex(), which
provide the ability to override the normal namespace selection.
[Jeff Trawick]
*) Update compile settings for MINT OS. PR 47181. [Alan Hourihane
<alanh fairlite.co.uk>]
*) Files and pipes on Windows: Don't create an unused pollset when
files and pipes are opened. [Mladen Turk]

merging of keys with multiple values. [Graham Leggett]
*) Add apr_hash_this_key(), apr_hash_this_key_len(), and
apr_hash_this_val() for easier access to those attributes from
a hash iterator. [Hyrum K. Wright <hyrum_wright mail.utexas.edu>]
*) MinGW/MSYS: Support shared builds of APR, other general improvements
to support of this toolchain. PR 46175. [Carlo Bramini
<carlo.bramix libero.it>]
