Based on MUMPS V1 1.65 from Ray Newman. The master branch gets only bug fixes.

Changes:

  • works on big-endian processors
  • works on macOS with clang
  • has 31 character label/routine/local/global names
  • MCL shell prompt changed to [UCI,VOL], SHUTDOWN command
  • %MV1 routine contains the implementation constants
  • supports global buffer area over 2GB
  • daemon log contains GMT timestamp, process id, restart info
  • blkalloc/blkdeall/blkreorg/dqstall statistics

Fixes:

  • fixed UCI,VOL parsing in SET command
  • display all compilation messages ("Too many tags" got garbaged)
  • parser/runtime fix for LOCK (@GLVN1[,...])
  • stack overflow during ST_Restore()
  • XECUTE could overwrite process stack
  • DB lock-up with a small global buffer
  • faster Locate()
  • db_rekey fixes (level > 3)
  • prevent changed Garbit() blocks to leave the global buffer
  • fixes from MUMPS V1 1.66 and 1.70
  • recursive indirection
  • $BP handling
  • $FNUMBER() memory leaks
  • EINTR handling during semaphore operations
  • $JUSTIFY() with negative numbers
  • external variable call memory leaks
  • standard handle redirection in JOB
  • socket communication options (SO_REUSEADDR, SO_NOSIGPIPE)
  • robust error handling in MUMPS environment initialization
  • no writer deadlock due to full dirty queue
  • removed race in global KILL (block removal)
  • atomic access in dirty/garbage queue
  • reverse $QUERY() for locals
  • $FNUMBER() suppress sign for 0
  • JOB argument passing
  • fixed cached block usage in Get_data() when journaling turned off and writing
  • fixed Control-C handling
