Changelog:
===========
- New option -J / --json for JSON output. See doc/fping-json.md for
  the JSON schema. This feature is still in alpha and the schema
  might change in future releases
- The -g, --generate option now also supports IPv6 addresses
- New option --seqmap-timeout to control the time after which sequence
  numbers can be used again
- Fix OpenBSD sprintf() warning
- Fix fallback to SO\_TIMESTAMP if SO\_TIMESTAMPNS is not available
- When reading target names from file or standard input, lines longer
  than the static buffer are no longer interpreted as more than one line
- Typo fix in error message when SO\_BINDTODEVICE fails
- Options --print-tos and --print-ttl now also work for IPv6, and no
  longer require privileges
- Report received ICMPv6 error messages
- Suppress duplicate reports in count mode with -q, --quiet or -Q, --squiet
- Switch to alpine-based multi-stage Docker build to reduce image size
  and improve build performance; add OpenContainers-compatible labels
- Print receive ping moved to new functions
- Avoid unsigned overflow when determining the memory size to save
  response times on systems where size\_t is the same as unsigned int
- Document the new minimum value for the -p option
- Fix build without IPv6 support
- Fix debug build use of dbg_printf in fping.c
- Remove MacOS-specific test for -I option
- GitHub Actions fixes
- Fix measurement of time for timed reports (-Q) to start after DNS name
  resolution.
- Updated autoconf from 2.71 to 2.72
- Updated automake from 1.16.5 to 1.18.1
- Updated libtool from 2.4.6 to 2.5.4
- Implemented verification of autotools tarballs in Github actions.
- Implemented stricter flag value checking (e.g. -c 10xyz is not accepted anymore).

Changelog:
=========
- Memory allocation safety checks for event storage (thanks David.A for bug report)
- Fix off-by-one boundary check in seqmap code
- The minimum value for the period (-p flag) is now 0.001 milliseconds,
  since it probably never makes sense to use a smaller value, and to avoid doing
  a very large memory allocation for event storage.

Please see
https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/?id=4dd321f8b83afecd962393101b2a6861275b5265
for what changes are needed, and sed commands that can be used to make them en masse.

I've verified that bitbake -c patch world works with these, but did not run a world
build; the majority of recipes shouldn't need further fixups, but if there are
some that still fall out, they can be fixed in followups.

fping is under a non-standard license: it's almost BSD-3-Clause but is
phrased differently.  As interpretation of the licenses isn't something
we want to do, we can use the exact license text instead of referring to
the 3-clause BSD text.

<id>urn:sha1:afe3b35c84076e7216d0137af25322edba859777</id>
<content type='text'>
Upgrade to release 5.0:

- In non-quiet loop and count mode, a line is printed for every
  lost packet
- 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
- Improved precision of measurements from 10us to 1us
- The reported size of received packets is now always correct on
  Linux even for packets &gt; 4096 bytes
- Travis CI automated testing now also macos testing and additional
  ubuntu distributions
