-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2007-2764 2007-11-06 16:00:54.882213 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : sparse Product : Fedora 8 Version : 0.4 Release : 2.fc8 URL : http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/devel/sparse/ Summary : A semantic parser of source files Description : Sparse is a semantic parser of source files: it's neither a compiler (although it could be used as a front-end for one) nor is it a preprocessor (although it contains as a part of it a preprocessing phase). It is meant to be a small - and simple - library. Scanty and meager, and partly because of that easy to use. It has one mission in life: create a semantic parse tree for some arbitrary user for further analysis. It's not a tokenizer, nor is it some generic context-free parser. In fact, context (semantics) is what it's all about - figuring out not just what the grouping of tokens are, but what the _types_ are that the grouping implies. Sparse is primarily used in the development and debugging of the Linux kernel. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Version 0.4 of sparse has numerous fixes and improvements. There are now man pages for the sparse and cgcc programs. There is a new program c2xml (with no man page). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Nov 1 2007 Roland McGrath <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 0.4-2 - Upgrade to 0.4 - Install man pages, c2xml. - Run make check in rpmbuild. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #345931 - sparse breakage triggered by rcu_read_lock() lockdep annotations https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=345931 [ 2 ] Bug #362751 - sparse-0.4 is available https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=362751 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Updated packages: e3a3a5f89a1cdbcefbb640fd6cc1ec23ac0a9200 sparse-devel-0.4-2.fc8.ppc64.rpm 5f2d205e55012ddfea71ccf32b3d5c34cf04f3cd sparse-debuginfo-0.4-2.fc8.ppc64.rpm 96fe7c780410ab0f3aebd43ac4e64482215497cd sparse-0.4-2.fc8.ppc64.rpm 9404cda127fd89e20c6e9b6edce99fcc5c2bf026 sparse-devel-0.4-2.fc8.i386.rpm 5eba341fb090de5227ad589c30e57eefc7311638 sparse-0.4-2.fc8.i386.rpm 696cea9cd24bd8973fcfc960917a6eb1c74dd21a sparse-debuginfo-0.4-2.fc8.i386.rpm 761617a0c142799b6b3d5adcf2ed48462c274120 sparse-devel-0.4-2.fc8.x86_64.rpm d19aaf15828dc5579d4701283e6a3bd44dc8fe35 sparse-0.4-2.fc8.x86_64.rpm 66be248376bf69370c4b7da0c2aaf88d60f84e42 sparse-debuginfo-0.4-2.fc8.x86_64.rpm 71180e689e95dd1a0e4e69e7b49db7ce5e201f14 sparse-0.4-2.fc8.ppc.rpm 1f7df7b78d689101d289430841ff7f5726da9f44 sparse-devel-0.4-2.fc8.ppc.rpm 52b48720048673c3205b8d1368a4c83de87b8d4c sparse-debuginfo-0.4-2.fc8.ppc.rpm f203908e70b902a0af92412f618adee1b5b3e6a5 sparse-0.4-2.fc8.src.rpm This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
