* Mon Apr 13 2026 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to version 2.38
* Silent debugging messages in epoll algorithm (boo#1261699)
* Make it work on 3215 console of s390
means no tcdrain() for 3215, no blocking writes, not more then
130 characters per line, no \r, finalize lines with \n.
Nevertheless use a blocking read for password requests.
Make automatic CLEAR an kernel command line option with
the parameter blog.timeout=0 (boo#1261697)
* Thu Mar 19 2026 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to version 2.37
* Make release.sh active
* Run klogctl with console massages off only once in the
password asking processes on the main console device only
* Clean up white spaces
* This will help on high console I/O as now blogd uses its epoll
event handler to monitor via a file descriptor open with pidfd_open
the password asking child processes (boo#1259547)
* Tue Mar 17 2026 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to version 2.36
* If SYS_pidfd_open is not defined use a fallback
Include <asm/unistd.h> to get __NR_pidfd_open for
the definition of SYS_pidfd_open.
* Changes to let systemd find plymouth replacements
which means to add the appropiate Alias in systemd-ask-password-blog.path
and also in systemd-ask-password-blog.service with new Install
sections. Also change description in systemd-ask-password-blog.path
to hint for blogd as replacement.
* Rework password asking method to be asynchronous
* Mon Apr 28 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to version 2.35
* Make s390 3215 console work that is use EPOLLOUT|EPOLLONESHOT
to control if we can write to ttyS0 in nonblocking mode and if
not reenable EPOLLOUT|EPOLLONESHOT.
* At boot set for ttyS0 via vmcp API nonblocking MORE mode with
`0 0'. It beeps but boots.
- Remove patches now upstream
* blog-3215.patch
* blog-install.patch
* Thu Apr 17 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Add patch blog-3215.patch
* Try to avoid blocking mode of 3215 console on s390x as holding
the output at `MORE' stops blogd, that is that it can not see
any messages over its socket like switch of the root file system.
* Thu Apr 17 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Add patch blog-install.patch
* Fixes install problems
* Use module-setup.sh to install in BUILDROOT
* Wed Apr 16 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to version 2.34
* Make it work on s390x (still no 3215 console)
This is a bug fix release. But still no support in conmode
3215 as there is a race triggered by using conmode 3215.
The order of the systemd units seems to change with this
console mode.
* Fri Apr 11 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Use rpm-config-SUSE instead of suse-module-tools for suse version
above 1550 and add code for the missing macros for older
distributions like leap 15.6
* Thu Apr 10 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- The suse-module-tools are required at build otherwise blog
is not in the initrd
* Thu Apr 03 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to version 2.32
* Better 3270 console support, use uevent below /sys file system
* Wed Apr 02 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to version 2.31
* Handel BS on password prompt as well
* Drop spining code as systemd uses clear to end of line
escape sequence (hard coded!) for its cylon lines.
- blog: again suggest blog-plymouth
* Mon Mar 31 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to version 2.30
* The asking variable is not shared
* Allow password asking prompt to be repeated if empty.
* Make spinner support UTF-8 multibyte conform.
* Spinner lines of system still not handled.
* Fri Mar 28 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to version 2.29
* Make sure that password prompt is seen Latest
Use a temporary buffer to be silent during asking passwords.
And stop system console output during password questions
only if temporary buffer becomes short. As well as do coloring
on /dev/ttysclp0 for S390.
- Drop patch.patch as now upstream
* Fri Mar 28 2025 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>

more familiar and known by the users
* Wed Nov 29 2023 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
