GNU Radio releases 3.6.3.1 and 3.6.4 are now available for download. Release 3.6.3.1 is a bug-fix only update to 3.6.3, and has no new features. Release 3.6.4 has both bug fixes and new features.

Johnathan C. Corgan Labs Contributors: ``` Balint S. Ben R. Johnathan C. Josh B. Julien Olivain Martin B. Mike J. Nicholas C. Roy T. Sylvain M. Tim O'Shea Tom R. ``` Important new features (3.6.4): ``` Ability to set processor affinity for GNU Radio blocks Tom R. has implemented the ability to set processor affinity per block in a flowgraph. This allows the developer to limit the execution of a GNU Radio block thread to a set of one or more cores, helping optimize inter-core resources in a multicore system. See: http://www.trondeau.com/home/2013/2/7/block-core-affinity.html Inclusion of gr_modtool by Martin B. Previously available as a stand-alone utility, the gr_modtool application for creating out-of-tree GNU Radio blocks has been integrated within the main GNU Radio software distribution. The features and functionality are the same, but it is now no longer necessary to download this separately. See: http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/OutOfTreeModules Use of GNU Radio preferences in native C++ applications Tom R. has ported the GNU Radio preferences system to allow its use in GNU Radio applications implemented in C++. Prior to this, it was only possible to access the preferences file from Python. Until the new manual is updated on gnuradio.org, you can see the raw commit here: http://gnuradio.org/cgit/gnuradio.git/commit/?id=3643a858 Addition of GNU Radio block performance counters Tom R. has implemented a new capability to allow monitoring of peformance statistics of blocks inside a running flowgraph. This is an experimental feature that has not received a great deal of usage. For more details, see: http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/PerformanceCounters ``` Minor features/changes (3.6.4): ``` atsc: added single decode Python script (Ben R.) atsc: made equalizer taps accessible in python.
