|
|
|
|
- update to 3.1:
|
|
* The new version fixes an issue with monitoring a target process which
|
|
has multiple children and a low CPU limit throttle. In some cases this
|
|
situation could lead to LimitCPU crashing. This has been fixed and the
|
|
monitoring of children processes has been made slightly more efficient.

|
|
|
|
- update to 3.0:
|
|
* Fix an important bug in LimitCPU when the program is
|
|
monitoring both a program and its child processes via the "-m"
|
|
flag. In the past, it was possible LimitCPU would fail to spawn
|
|
new instances to monitor child processes if LimitCPU was not in
|
|
the user's default path. In other words, if we were launched
|
|
from /usr/local/bin and this directory was not in the default
|
|
path, then child processes might not be monitored. And the
|
|
failure would happen silently.
|
|
* Now LimitCPU will try to do a better job of launching new
|
|
monitors for child processes and it will print a warning
|
|
about any errors when run in verbose mode.

|
|
- update to 2.9:
|
|
* When counting CPU cycles (jiffies) we now use
|
|
a "long" type instead of "int" to avoid running
|
|
out of space when tracking on-running processes.

Thu Dec 29 22:56:56 UTC 2022 - Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
|
|
|
|
- update to 2.8:
|
|
* Made exit message when child signal is caught only show up
|
|
when in verbose mode.
|
|
* Adjusted the way the VERSION value is assigned in the Makefile.
|
|
CFLAGS was being overwritten by Debian's build process.

|
|
|
|
- new upstream version 2.5
|
|
* Added some protection against causing a fork bomb when the
|
|
throttled process is a parent to LimitCPU.
|
|
- includes 2.4
|
|
* Introduced ability to watch children of the target process. This
|
|
means forks of the process we are throttling can also be
|
|
throttled, using the "-m" or "--monitor-forks" flags.
|
|
- includes 2.3
|
|
* Applied patch to man page which fixes -s description.
|
|
* Added --foreground, -f flag for launching target programs in the
|
|
foreground. LimitCPU then waits for the target process to exit.
|
|
Should be useful in scripts.
|
|
- rebase cpulimit-2.2-do_not_forget_version.patch
|
|
- cleanup with spec-cleaner

Fri Dec 26 09:11:15 UTC 2014 - andrea@opensuse.org
|
|
|
|
- new upstream version 2.2
|
|
+ Escaped double-dashed in manual page to avoid
|
|
warnings from Debian check tool.
|
|
+ Added -s --signal flag. This flag allows the user to
|
|
specify an alternative signal to send a watched process
|
|
when cpulimit terminates. By default we send SIGCONT.
|
|
The -s flag can accept a number (1-35) or a written
|
|
value such as SIGCONT, SIGSTOP, SIGINT, SIGTERM.
|
|
|
|
- from version 2.1
|
|
+ Added the --quiet (-q) flag to make
|
|
limitcpu run silently
|
|
+ Make sure error messages are printed to stderr.
|
|
+ Placed source code in Subversion (svn) repository.
|
|
Accessable using the SVN checkout command. For
|
|
details, please see the README file.
|
|
|
|
- from version 2.0
|
|
+ Added the -- flag to make sure child processes
|
|
run with command line flags would not confuse
|
|
cpulimit.
|
|
+ Corrected output of child process name in verbose mode.
|
|
|
|
- added cpulimit-2.2-do_not_forget_version.patch

Wed Jul 24 00:34:45 UTC 2013 - malcolmlewis@opensuse.org
|
|
|
|
- Updated to version 1.9:
|
|
+ Added --kill (-k) and --restore (-r) flags to allow target
|
|
processes to be killed and restored rather than simply
|
|
throttled.
|
|
- Updates from version 1.8:
|
|
+ When displaying verbose output, cpulimit now redisplays the
|
|
column headers every 20 lines.
|
|
+ Fixed limiting CPU usage on multicore machines when the desired
|
|
usage limit is great than 100%.

|
|
|
|
- Upstream update to version 1.7:
|
|
* Minor code cleanup.
|
|
* Make sure we do not try to throttle our own process.
|
|
* Added "tarball" option to the Makefile to assist
|
|
in packaging. Moved version number to the makefile.
|
|
* Added version information to CPUlimit's help screen.
|
|
* Detect the number of CPU cores on the machine and
|
|
cap the % we can limit. 1 CPU means we can
|
|
limit processes 1-100%, 2 means 1-200%, 4 means 1-400%.
|
|
* Removed extra priority changes. We now only bump
|
|
our priority once, if we have access to do so.
|
|
Also simplified priority increases so it's flexible
|
|
rather than "all or nothing".
|
|
* Since we now attempt to detect the number of CPUs
|
|
available, we also give the user the ability to
|
|
override our guess. The -c and --cpu flags have
|
|
been added for this purpose.
|
|
* Commands can be launched and throttled by appending
|
|
commands to the end of CPUlimit's argument list. For
|
|
example:
|
|
cpulimit -l 25 firefox
|
