- Added implementation of symlink() using native CreateSymbolicLink() function.
- Added unit tests for symlink behavior in readlink(), lstat, stat(), and symlink().
- Reworked readlink() to be more inline with POSIX readlink() behavior.
- Reworked symlink handling in stat/lstat due to revised readlink().
- Added additional error handling to readlink().
- Added symlink() Implementation - Memory Leak Fix
- Modified fileio_readlink() to properly free a temporary buffer it creates.
OpenSSh privilege separation model - http://www.citi.umich.edu/u/provos/ssh/privsep.html
Posix_spawn is implemented in POSIX adapter as an alternative to fork() that is heavily used in Privilege separation.
Additional state info is added to sshd to accommodate distinguishing the various modes (privileged monitor, unprivileged child, authenticated child).
Required service state (like config and host keys) is transmitted over pipes from monitor to child processes.
Changes to installation scripts and tests to accomodate new architectural changes
PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH#929
Issue: ReadThread prematurely returns on read io error. This results in APC never getting set and hence the corresponding fd is never set on select resulting the hang seen in issue 929.
Also removed the static instances storing sync io status, since there could be multiple sync fds operating at the same time. Moved the sync io status to w32_io object itself.
PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH#884
Convert the mode properly to file permissions.
If mode has "read" permission then we set the file permission to "read & execute"
If mode has "write" permission then we set the file permission to "Write & Modify"
Inherit the file permissions from the parent folder when sftp / scp creates the file on windows.
sftp - put & get.
scp - from local to remote windows machine.
AF_UNIX kind of sockets are now supported. socket() and connect() calls are implemented. Windows specific logic in authfd.c is now removed. https://github.com/PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH/issues/532 is created to keep track of ssh-agent end point authentication

1.If there are no sufficient permissions to open a file then _wstat64() is returning file not present but it should return the accessed denied.Fixed this.
2.Code cleanup in the posix compat files to align with the openbsd coding standard.
