1 root 1.143 Revision history for Perl extension EV
2 root 1.1
3 root 1.185 Changes marked with (libev) are changes in libev, and have more
4     documentation in the libev Changes file.
5 root 1.223
6 root 1.233 - included experimental lin ux aio backend.
7    
8 root 1.231 4.25 Fri Dec 21 08:04:26 CET 2018
9     - (libev) updated to libev 4.25, minor fixes and enhancements.
10 root 1.229 - document the requirement to "use EV" when using EV::MakeMaker.
11 root 1.228 - only use __register_atfork with glibc and uclibc, as musl
12     defines __linux__, but doesn't implement the linux standard
13     base ABI, nor makes itself detectable via a macro, both apparently
14     by design, winning the "broken by design 2016 award" - well done.
15 root 1.230 - correct EV::periodic example 24h after midnight -> one day after
16     midnight (reported by Felix Ostmann).
17 root 1.228
18 root 1.227 4.22 Sun Dec 20 02:34:39 CET 2015
19     - (libev) when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild
20     only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid
21     SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork,
22     so document what needs to be done in ev_loop_fork
23     (analyzed by Benjamin Mahler).
24     - (libev) remove superfluous sys/timeb.h include on win32
25     (analyzed by Jason Madden).
26     - updated libecb.
27    
28 root 1.226 4.21 Mon Jul 13 21:47:33 CEST 2015
29     - allow argument in timer->again.
30     - document timer->remaining.
31     - document default repeat value for timer->set.
32    
33 root 1.225 4.20 Sat Jun 20 13:07:34 CEST 2015
34     - added stability canary support.
35 root 1.224 - truly rely on automatic configuration for clock_gettime and others.
36 root 1.225 unfortunately, this doesn't help with activeperl and similar perls,
37 root 1.224 which define _POSIX_TIMERS without actually implementing any of it.
38 root 1.225 - (libev, ecb) make it compile as C++ again.
39     - (libev) fix a potential aliasing issue when accessing watcher cbs.
40 root 1.224
41 root 1.223 4.18 Sat Sep 6 20:37:23 CEST 2014
42     - use slightly better weay to find includes, to support multiarch
43     on newer perls.
44 root 1.185
45 root 1.222 4.17 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
46     - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
47     without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
48     in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
49     compatibility - I will never understand.
50 root 1.219
51 root 1.221 4.16 Sat Mar 8 16:49:05 CET 2014
52 root 1.216 - make sure EV::CHECK is available at all times.
53     - avoid a spurious warning when perl -w overrides "no warnings".
54 root 1.219 - use perl's signal implementation on WIN32.
55 root 1.220 - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible
56 root 1.221 pointers.
57     - (libev) mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin).
58     - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat).
59     - (libev) in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall
60     on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems
61     doing clock_gettime in userspace).
62     - (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being
63     broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble).
64 root 1.216
65 root 1.215 4.15 Fri Mar 1 12:15:53 CET 2013
66     - (libev) upgrade to 4.15 - too many changes to list.
67 root 1.214 - EV::run now returns a boolean.
68 root 1.211 - API version 5:1.
69 root 1.214 - document that cleanup watchers are not available via perl.
70 root 1.212 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
71 root 1.214 - remove dependencies on librt and libpthreads on GNU/Linux.
72 root 1.211
73 root 1.210 4.11 Sat Feb 4 19:56:26 CET 2012
74     - (libev) implement memory fences for (obsolete) llvm-gcc.
75    
76 root 1.209 4.10 Thu Jan 19 18:54:23 CET 2012
77     - (libev) fix a race where the workaround against the epoll fork
78     bugs caused signals to not be handled anymore.
79     - (libev) correct backend_fudge for most backends, and implement
80     a windows specific workaround to avoid looping because we call
81     both select and Sleep, both with different time resolutions.
82 root 1.207 - e_new wasn't declared static (causing very minor .so bloat).
83 root 1.208 - replace more old api names by new ones.
84 root 1.206
85 root 1.205 4.03 Tue Jan 11 14:51:05 CET 2011
86 root 1.203 - do not avoid the clock_gettime call on GNU/Linux anymore, as EV
87     links against -lpthread anyways - as a result, EV might now take
88     advantage of fast userspace clock_gettime implementations,
89     but also links against -lrt.
90 root 1.204 - (libev) lots of event port bug workarounds.
91     - (libev) officially support files in I/O watchers.
92     - (libev) new function ev_feed_signal.
93     - fix documentation parts still refering to the 3.x API.
94 root 1.203
95 root 1.202 4.02 Thu Dec 30 08:27:41 CET 2010
96     - the revents argument did not stringify correctly, as only the
97     numeric value was updated, while the string value was kept from
98     previous invocations.
99    
100 root 1.201 4.01 Sun Dec 5 12:42:13 CET 2010
101 root 1.197 - fully support EV_COMPAT3=0.
102 root 1.198 - default_fork was stupidly defined as inline.
103 root 1.199 - ask cpan to upgrade AnyEvent if < 5.29.
104 root 1.200 - support EV_EXTRA_DEFS during configuration.
105 root 1.201 - support -DEV_NO_LOOPS for snakker build.
106 root 1.197

109 root 1.196 - (libev) lots and lots of bugfixes, see the ev documentation.
110 root 1.187 - fix a bug where inotify usage would parse the same event
111     multiple times, causing various forms of breakage.
112     - greatly reduce stack usage for inotify (8kb to <0.5kb).

121     translated to C.
122 root 1.193 - document the EV::CHECK runtime unavailability.
123 root 1.192 - ported to minix 3.1.7.
124 root 1.187
125 root 1.186 3.9 Thu Dec 31 07:59:59 CET 2009
126 root 1.182 - disable t/07* under automatic testing.
127 root 1.183 - increase t/09* timeouts as netbsd has *horribly* broken
128     select/kevent that *usually* sleep >>0.6s instead of 0.3.
129 root 1.184 - add constants EV::FLAG_NOSIGFD, EV::FLAG_NOINOTIFY and
130     EV::BACKEND_ALL.

141 root 1.180 - implement $loop->signal/signal_ns.
142 root 1.181 - (libev) incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal
143     handler to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped.
144     - (libev) ev_default_destroy did not properly free or zero some
145     members, potentially causing crashes and memory corruption on
146     repated ev_default_destroy/ev_default_loop calls.
147     - (libev) take advantage of signalfd on GNU/Linux systems.
148     - (libev) document that the signal mask might be in an unspecified
149     state when using libev's signal handling.
150     - (libev) take advantage of some GNU/Linux calls to set
151     cloexec/nonblock on fd creation, to avoid race conditions.

154 root 1.180
155 root 1.177 3.7 Fri Jul 17 16:49:16 CEST 2009
156 root 1.171 - add EV::loop_verify and EV::loop_depth.

160 root 1.176 - add EV::Timer->remaining.
161 root 1.175 - allow for subclassing of EV::Loop (see the exciting

163     - added EV::invoke_pending and EV::pending_count.
164 root 1.171
165 root 1.177 - (libev) ev_unloop and ev_loop wrongly used a global variable to
166     exit loops, instead of using a per-loop variable.
167     - (libev) the ev_set_io_collect_interval interpretation has changed.
168     - add new functionality: EV::invoke_pending, EV::pending_count.
169     - add $timer->remaining.
170     - add EV::loop_depth.
171     - (libev) calling unloop in fork/prepare watchers will no longer poll
172     for new events.
173     - (libev) use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime instead of _timeb on windows,
174     for slightly higher accuracy.
175     - (libev) actually 0-initialise struct sigaction when installing
176     signals.
177    
178 root 1.170 3.6 Tue Apr 28 02:50:37 CEST 2009
179 root 1.167 - keepalive(0) could decrease the refcount of the loop
180     permanently.
181 root 1.168 - add ev_suspend/ev_resume, also make ev_now_update
182     accessible via the XS API.
183 root 1.169 - most EV::<eventtype> constants were missing and have been
184     added :/.
185     - add EV::VERSION_MAJOR/VERSION_MINOR constants.
186     - (libev) multiple timers becoming ready within an event loop
187     iteration will be invoked in the "correct" order now.
188     - (libev) do not leave the event loop early just because we have
189     no active watchers, fixing a problem when embedding a kqueue
190     loop that has active kernel events but no registered watchers
191     (reported by blacksand blacksand).
192     - (libev) correctly zero the idx values for arrays, so destroying
193     and reinitialising the default loop actually works (patch by
194     Malek Hadj-Ali).
195     - (libev) new EV::CUSTOM revents flag for use by applications.
196     - (libev) add documentation section about priorites.

201 root 1.167
202 root 1.166 3.53 Sun Feb 15 02:38:20 CET 2009
203     - (libev) on win32, the event loop creation could randomly fail
204     due to an initialised variable having the wrong value.
205 root 1.165 - (libev) probe for CLOCK_REALTIME support at runtime as well and
206     fall back to gettimeofday if there is an error, to support older
207     operating systems with newer header files/libraries.
208     - prefer gettimeofday over clock_gettime by default.
209    
210 root 1.164 3.52 Wed Jan 7 21:46:14 CET 2009
211 root 1.163 - (libev) fix some issues in the select backend when in fd_set mode.
212     - (libev) due to a thinko, instead of disabling everything but
213     select on the borked OS X platform, everything but select was
214     allowed (reported by Emanuele Giaquinta).
215     - (libev) actually verify that local and remote port are matching in
216     libev's socketpair emulation, which makes denial-of-service
217     attacks harder (but not impossible - it's windows). Make sure
218     it even works under vista, which thinks that getpeer/sockname
219     should return fantasy port numbers.
220    
221 root 1.162 3.51 Wed Dec 24 23:01:59 CET 2008
222 root 1.161 - do not cache the arguments passed to callbacks if the refcount
223     indicates that the callback has stolen them.
224 root 1.159 - (libev) try to avoid librt on GNU/Linux.

226     avoid problems.
227 root 1.162 - (libev) fix a bug with stat watchers possibly causing freezes.
228     - (libev) work around OS X 10.5 breaking poll, now select is the

231     on cpan tester machines.
232 root 1.159
233 root 1.158 3.49 Wed Nov 19 11:26:53 CET 2008
234 root 1.155 - fix typos in manpage (Alex Efros).
235 root 1.156 - increase timing even further, for the ever-overloaded cpan-tester
236     machines, and to the detriment of everybody else who wants a fast
237     make test.
238 root 1.157 - possible 5.6 compatibility.
239 root 1.158 - (libev) use inotify even on buggy kernels, but don't rely on it.

241 root 1.155
242 root 1.154 3.48 Thu Oct 30 09:09:48 CET 2008
243 root 1.152 - (libev) use a generation counter to detect spurious epoll events
244 root 1.151 and recreate the kernel in such a case (sorry, it's slow, but

246 root 1.150 - (libev) optimise away an EPOLL_CTL_ADD/MOD combo in the epoll
247     backend in some cases.
248     - (libev) use memset to initialise most arrays now and do away
249     with the init functions.
250 root 1.152 - speed up event callback invocation further (~15%), by
251 root 1.151 not creating the object reference each time.
252 root 1.153 - EV::sleep was documented, but not implemented. fun.
253 root 1.150
254     3.45 Tue Oct 21 22:20:39 CEST 2008
255     - (libev) disable inotify usage on linux <2.6.25 (kernel bug).
256 root 1.146 - (libev) ev_embed will now automatically follow fork.
257     - (libev) ev_once will now pass both io and timeout events to
258     the callback when both happen concurrently, instead of giving
259     one precedence.
260 root 1.149 - install C library documentation as EV::libev manpage (sorry, oesi).
261 root 1.150 - (libev) fix a minor performance bug in ev_stat handling.
262 root 1.146
263 root 1.145 3.44 Mon Sep 29 05:16:31 CEST 2008

273    
274 root 1.139 3.42 Mon May 26 07:36:46 CEST 2008
275 root 1.138 - (libev) work around another bug in windows perls and
276     windows itself: failed connects do NOT set read or write
277     flags in select, but this version of libev will.
278    
279 root 1.136 3.41 Thu May 22 01:39:40 CEST 2008
280 root 1.135 - (libev) fix many heap-related bugs (timers, periodics).
281 root 1.134 - (libev) improve timing stability of timers and periodics.
282 root 1.137 - expose ev_loop_verify to perl code.
283 root 1.134 - clarify documentation for periodic reschedule callbacks.
284     - verify that the passed callback argument is indeed a code
285     reference, for earlier error reporting and a nice calling
