+broken on Windows)
+- Bugfix: get_intrange: Check for extra garbage at the end, only after we know
+we have an end-position
+- Bugfix: Fix Enter key in TUI on Windows
+- erupter: Split identify-handling logic into handle_identify function
+- Bugfix: erupter: Ensure identify is handled during no-once or firstrun
+- erupter: After identify, check if a work restart is needed immediately

+- Bugfix: ZeroStats: Reset column widths to 1
+- miner.php: Include max temperature in device totals line

+behaviour when bad values are provided

+with the console lock held

+avoid potential races

+initialise it again)

+multi_format_unit_array
+- New multi_format_unit_array to fill multiple buffers instead of building a
+delimited string
+- multi_format_unit: Skip recounting length of fixed-length strings
+- Shrink status line to fit in 80 columns
+- Add network bandwidth rate to TUI
+- New multi_format_unit variadic macro to handle formatting multiple numbers at
+once
+- format_unit: Option to choose 3-digit integer display vs 5-character floating-

+suffix later
+- Generalise hashrate_pick_unit/hashrate_to_bufstr into pick_unit/format_unit
+- Extend hashrate_pick_unit/hashrate_to_bufstr to handle sub-kilo units
+- Split total_bytes_xfer to total_bytes_rcvd and total_bytes_sent
+- Bugfix: _decode_udev_enc_dup: Allocate enough space for full string
+- Bugfix: Never use waddstr for logwin, since it would bypass special newline
+handling
+- Bugfix: bitforce: Set kname on chip processors
+- bitforce: Include voltages in Manage device TUI
+- Defer newlines going to curses logwin, to avoid a useless blank line at the
+bottom of the window
+- Ensure printing to logwin always goes through _wlog
+- Remove blank line above log window
+- bitforce: Identify parallel queue protocol distinctly from mere bulk queue
+- ManageTUI: Include kernel name, when available
+- Stratum: Roll ntime as we generate work
+- Stratum: Make swork.ntime native-endian
+- Stratum: Treat ntime as uint32_t (as it should be), still always big endian
+- Debuglog ManageTUI actions/responses
+- ManageTUI: Add generic Identify support
+- Bugfix: Move serial_detect* and open_bitstream to DevAPI code so CPU/OpenCL
+can build properly without fpgautils
+- Short-circuit logging sooner in quiet mode
+- Write to both stderr and console within same console lock "session"
+- Bugfix: Also hold the console lock when writing to stderr
+- Use common console locking function for stdout in logging.c
+- Move console lock and unlock functions (which also handle thread cancelstate)
+to miner.h
+- Bugfix: bitforce: Only try to clear queues of SC devices, since FPGA MR boards
+interpret ZQX/ZOX differently
+- Timer-based gettimeofday substitute for systems with poor time-of-day clocks
+(Windows)
+- Use clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) for timers when available
+- Use QueryPerformanceCounter for timers on Windows
+- Generic refactoring for timer_set_now
+- Replace all remaining uses of gettimeofday for timers, with timer_set_now (aka
+cgtime)
+- Don't mix timers with timestamps (visual only)
+- Always use struct timeval for timers, and don't mix timers with timestamps
+(functional only)
+- get_datestamp: Change timeval parameter to time_t, and implement
+get_now_datestamp for common "current time" use case
+- Use get_datestamp for (non-microsecond) log timestamps
+- Bugfix: ztex: Allocate final processor names on the heap, so they survive when
+the stack for ztex_prepare is gone
+- Bugfix: ztex: Copy serial number to device "name" before cloning it for other
+processors
+- Bugfix: x6500: Use cgpu->temp directly since there is only one sensor per
+processor
+- Bugfix: Actually show the highest temperature, not just calculate it
+- x6500: Allow changing clock speed from TUI Manage device
+- x6500: Port pgaset clock from modminer driver at
+66d2a3ab072fcdbc3c7ed41a97f265afa917bbee
+- modminer: Allow changing clock speed from TUI Manage device
+- bitforce: Flush job and result queues at startup to avoid unnecessary warnings
+- x6500: Reduce default clock to 190 MHz
+- Bugfix: fpgautils: Close libusb handle after copying USB strings
+- use BSD sed syntax to generate iospeed_local.h

+bfgminer (3.1.4-0precise1) precise; urgency=low
+
+  * Enable triggering "identify" (flash LED) function from Manage device TUI for devices that support it.
+  * modminer & x6500: Enable changing clock frequency from Manage devices TUI interface.
+  * Device ailments (SICK, ERR, etc) are now displayed in red/pink.
+  * erupter: Add support for "identify" (flash LED) function. After some delay (up to 13 seconds), the LED will light for 3 seconds (hashing stops during this time).
+  * bitforce: Display voltages in Manage device TUI.
+  * Reorganised TUI display, adding network transfer rate, and totals summary line including count of total devices/processors hashing as well as hottest temperature across all sensors.
+  * Improved timer functionality under the hood, taking advantage of clock_gettime. This should fix issues (eg, erupters reporting insane hashrates) related to system clock changes (such as NTP drift adjustment).
+  * Removed blank/wasted lines above/below log window in TUI mode.
+  * bitforce: Clear queues at startup to avoid spurious warnings.
+  * Stratum: Add support for rolling ntime header.
