Paul David stepped in +with his first contribution to GNU Radio with a fix. + +Fix an issue with flat\_flowgraph calculating alignment by +misinterpreting units of write and read indeces. This was only apparent when these +indeces are non-zero (a flowgraph has stopped and restarted). + +Fix exceptions thrown in hier\_block2 constructors. + +Check d\_ninput\_items\_required for overflow and shut down if +overflow is detected. + +Allow hier\_block2’s to change I/O signature in the constructor, which +was previously allowed by the API, but broken. + +### gr-blocks + +Use unsigned char rather than char in add\_const\_bb. This was the +legacy behavior with the older add\_const\_XX and was accidentally +replaced with char when replacing the templated version. + +Fix vector length units from bytes to number of items in PDU to tagged +stream and tagged stream to PDU blocks. + +### gr-filter + +Add a check to the rational resampler to stop working after we’ve +operated on all input items (closed issue \#831) + +Throw an error when pfb clock sync is given constant taps which results +in a derivative of 0 (calculated as NaN). (closed issue \#812 and 734). Added +a reset\_taps function to externally set taps which should be used in +place of set\_taps. + +Fix a memory leak in pfb decimator (closed issue \#882) + +### gr-analog + +Maximum Deviation parameter for NBFM transmitter exposed to GRC + +### gr-digital + +Change the constellation receiver to inherit from control\_loop +publically +rather than the impl to better support the control port interface. +(closed issue \#876) + +### gr-fec + +TLC to puncture/depuncture GRC files in gr-fec + +### gr-zeromq + +Major performance and correctness fixes to gr-zeromq + +### Builds + +Fix cross compiling on for 64-bit architectures by not setting DEBIAN, +REDHAT, and SLACKWARE.
