Wed Oct 7 12:20:48 UTC 2020 - Matthias Gerstner <matthias.gerstner@suse.com>
- no longer invoke permissions macros for fping. It now uses ICMP_RAW sockets
instead (bsc#1174504).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Aug 17 12:40:08 UTC 2020 - Dirk Mueller <dmueller@suse.com>
- update to 5.0:
- In non-quiet loop and count mode, a line is printed for every lost packet
8.8.8.8 : xmt/rcv/%loss = 2/2/0%, min/avg/max = 12.3/12.5/12.8
8.8.8.7 : xmt/rcv/%loss = 2/0/100%
- The returned size in bytes now always excludes the IP header, so if before it
reported '84 bytes' e.g. when using 'fping -l', now it reports '64 bytes'.
This is to make the reported size consistent with ping(8) from iputils and
also with fping when pinging a IPv6 host (which never included the IPv6
header size).
- The number of sent pings is only counted when the pings are received or have
timed out, ensuring that the loss ratio will be always correct. This makes it
possible, for example, to use loop mode (-l) with interval statistics (-Q)
and a timeout larger than period, without having the issue that initially
some pings would be reported as missing (#193)
- Improved precision of measurements from 10us to 1us (#136, thanks @tycho)
- The reported size of received packets is now always correct on Linux even for
packets > 4096 bytes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
