The stable risen release after the Github's intentional malicious disaster.
We have migrated to a reliable trusted infrastructure
-----------------------------------------------------
The origin for now is at [GitFlic](https://gitflic.ru/project/erthink/libmdbx)
since on 2022-04-15 the Github administration, without any warning nor
explanation, deleted _libmdbx_ along with a lot of other projects,
simultaneously blocking access for many developers.
For the same reason ~~Github~~ is blacklisted forever.
GitFlic already support Russian and English languages, plan to support more,
including 和 中文. You are welcome!
New:
----
- Added the `tools-static` make target to build statically linked MDBX tools.
- Support for Microsoft Visual Studio 2022.
- Support build by MinGW' make from command line without CMake.
- Added `mdbx::filesystem` C++ API namespace that corresponds to `std::filesystem` or `std::experimental::filesystem`.
- Created [website](https://libmdbx.website.yandexcloud.net/) for online auto-generated documentation.
- Used `todo4recovery://erased_by_github/` for dead (or temporarily lost) resources deleted by ~~Github~~.
- Added `--loglevel=` command-line option to the `mdbx_test` tool.
- Added few fast smoke-like tests into CMake builds.
Fixes:
------
- Fixed a race between starting a transaction and creating a DBI descriptor that could lead to `SIGSEGV` in the cursor tracking code.
- Clarified description of `MDBX_EPERM` error returned from `mdbx_env_set_geometry()`.
- Fixed non-promoting the parent transaction to be dirty in case the undo of the geometry update failed during abortion of a nested transaction.
- Resolved linking issues with `libstdc++fs`/`libc++fs`/`libc++experimental` for C++ `std::filesystem` or `std::experimental::filesystem` for legacy compilers.
- Added workaround for GNU Make 3.81 and earlier.
- Added workaround for Elbrus/LCC 1.25 compiler bug of class inline `static constexpr` member field.
- [Fixed](https://github.com/ledgerwatch/erigon/issues/3874) minor assertion regression (only debug builds were affected).
- Fixed detection of `C++20` concepts accessibility.
- Fixed detection of Clang's LTO availability for Android.
- Fixed build for ARM/ARM64 by MSVC.
- Fixed non-x86 Windows builds with `MDBX_WITHOUT_MSVC_CRT=ON` and `MDBX_BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY=ON`.
Minors:
-------
- Resolve minor MSVC warnings: avoid `/INCREMENTAL[:YES]` with `/LTCG`, `/W4` with `/W3`, the `C5105` warning.
- Switched to using `MDBX_EPERM` instead of `MDBX_RESULT_TRUE' to indicate that the geometry cannot be updated.
- Added `NULL` checking during memory allocation inside `mdbx_chk`.
- Resolved all warnings from MinGW while used without CMake.
- Added inheretable `target_include_directories()` to `CMakeLists.txt` for easy integration.
- Added build-time checks and paranoid runtime assertions for the `off_t` arguments of `fcntl()` which are used for locking.
- Added `-Wno-lto-type-mismatch` to avoid false-positive warnings from old GCC during LTO-enabled builds.
- Added checking for TID (system thread id) to avoid hang on 32-bit Bionic/Android within `pthread_mutex_lock()`.
- Reworked `MDBX_BUILD_TARGET` of CMake builds.
- Added `CMAKE_HOST_ARCH` and `CMAKE_HOST_CAN_RUN_EXECUTABLES_BUILT_FOR_TARGET`.

Backward compatibility break:
-----------------------------
The database format signature has been changed to prevent
forward-interoperability with an previous releases, which may lead to a
[false positive diagnosis of database corruption](https://github.com/erthink/libmdbx/issues/238)
due to flaws of an old library versions.
This change is mostly invisible:
- previously versions are unable to read/write a new DBs;
- but the new release is able to handle an old DBs and will silently upgrade ones.

of grow step and shrink threshold when huge ones
.
To minimize the impact on compatibility, only the odd values inside the upper half

This done better support architectures with a weak/relaxed memory consistency model (ARM, AARCH64, PPC, MIPS, RISC-V, etc).
Change-Id: Iee831c8dc564f1d027ff84b0d6daa559325d5a9b
Historically, the page header provides 4-byte data alignment.
Therefore, unfortunately, the meta page data is also aligned on a 4-byte boundary, but contains 64-bit values.
This commit eliminates potentially unsafe access (SPARC, MIPS, etc) to these 64-bit values aligned on a 4-byte boundary.
Thus, a build with the `-fsanitize=undefined` now passes the tests both with CLANG 11 and GCC 10.

- Support for checking database using specified meta-page (see `mdbx_chk -h`).
- Support for turn to the specific meta-page after checking (see `mdbx_chk -h`).
- Support for explicit reader threads (de)registration.
- The `mdbx_txn_break()` function to explicitly mark a transaction as broken.
- Improved handling of corrupted databases by `mdbx_chk` utility and `mdbx_walk_tree()` function.
- Improved DB corruption detection by checking parent-page-txnid.
- Improved opening large DB (> 4Gb) from 32-bit code.
- Provided `pure-function` and `const-function` attributes to C API.
- Support for user-settable context for transactions & cursors.
- Revised API and documentation related to Handle-Slow-Readers callback feature.
Deprecated functions and flags:
- For clarity and API simplification the `MDBX_MAPASYNC` flag is deprecated.
Just use `MDBX_SAFE_NOSYNC` or `MDBX_UTTERLY_NOSYNC` instead of it.
- `MDBX_oom_func`, `mdbx_env_set_oomfunc()` and `mdbx_env_get_oomfunc()`
replaced with `MDBX_hsr_func`, `mdbx_env_get_hsr` and `mdbx_env_get_hsr()`.
Fixes:
- Fix `mdbx_strerror()` for `MDBX_BUSY` error (no error description is returned).
- Fix update internal meta-geo information in read-only mode (`EACCESS` or `EBADFD` error).
- Fix `mdbx_page_get()` null-defer when DB corrupted (crash by `SIGSEGV`).
- Fix `mdbx_env_open()` for re-opening after non-fatal errors (`mdbx_chk` unexpected failures).
- Workaround for MSVC 19.27 `static_assert()` bug.
- Doxygen descriptions and refinement.
- Update Valgrind's suppressions.
- Workaround to avoid infinite loop of 'nested' testcase on MIPS under QEMU.
- Fix a lot of typos & spelling (Thanks to Josh Soref for PR).
- Fix `getopt()` messages for Windows (Thanks to Andrey Sporaw for reporting).
- Fix MSVC compiler version requirements (Thanks to Andrey Sporaw for reporting).
- Workarounds for QEMU's bugs to run tests for cross-builded library under QEMU.
- Now C++ compiler optional for building by CMake.
TODO for next version(s):
- Rework/speedup the implementation of the dirty page list (lazy compactification, lazy sorting via merge).
- Finalize C++ API (few typos and trivia bugs are likely for now).
- Packages for ROSA Linux, ALT Linux, Fedora/RHEL, Debian/Ubuntu.
