+ Bugs fixed include:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Corrected an error in recursive mutex implementation.</li>
+ <li>task_create() was only dup'in the first three file descriptors.</li>
+ <li>Fixed driver open reference counting errors in dup(), dup2(), and exit().</li>
+ <li>Fixed error handling logic in fflush().</li>

- <li>Two POSIX timer bugs: a memory leak as well a fatal sequencing error.</li>
- <li>Several FAT filesystem errors.</li>
- <li>A deadlock that can occur in <code>opendir()</code></li>

- A few new features were also added:
+ New features were also added:

-
- * Add support for recursive mutexes.
- * Eliminate a memory leak -- contained watchdog instance was not being
- deleted with a POSIX timer was deleted reported by kwonsk.
- * Eliminate a deadlock condition in opendir() reported by kwonsk.
- * Fix several FAT filesystem problems reported by kwonsk (Changes not yet
- verified).
- * Host simulator no longer uses Linux system calls directly; Now works with Cygwin.
- * Fix an error that occurs when a POSIX timer is deleted by the timer signal handler.
- * Add logic to allow the examples/ostest to be run repetitively as an endurance test.
- * Add a ramdisk block driver
+0.3.12 2008-08-10 Gregory Nutt <spudmonkey@racsa.co.cr>
+
+ * Improved solution to POSIX timer lifetime controls bug fixed in 0.3.11.
+ * Add test for recursive mutexes
+ * Correct bug in recursive mutex logic
+ * Add mkfifo()
+ * Add pipe() and test for both pipes and fifos
+ * Attempts to open a FIFO will now block until there is at least one writer
+ * Add test/Fixed errors in FIFO reader/writer interlocks
+ * Removed limitation: task_create() was only dup'ing 3 file descriptors (now
+ dups all open file descriptors).
+ * Added a test for redirection of stdio through pipes
+ * Fixed error in dup and dup2: Must call open/close methods in fs/driver so that
+ driver can correctly maintain open reference counts.
+ * Same issue on closing file descriptors in exit()
+ * Fixed in error in stdio flush logic. Needed ssize_t vs size_t for error
+ check.
+ * Moved all FAT related files from fs to fs/fat
+ * Implemented mkfatfs(), a non-standard API to create a FAT filesystem on a
+ block device (not yet tested).
+ * Added a test for mkfatfs() on a RAM disk in examples/mount and verified
+ basic mkfatfs functionality for FAT12.
