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 1.241 4.28 Tue Nov 19 13:55:39 CET 2019
7     - (libev) fix ev_port backend, thanks to David H. Gutteridge for
8 root 1.242 - (libev) many bugfixes in linuxaio backend.
9     - (libev) experimental io uring interface.
10 root 1.241 reminding me to actually release the fix.
11 root 1.238 - try to name ev.h more explicitly, to hopefully improve portability.
12 root 1.239 - opportunistically round up wait times for poll and epoll backend,
13     to avoid unnecessary loop iterations.
14     - add build dependency on ev_linuxaio.c.
15 root 1.240 - quickly (re)-ported to minix 3.3 before minix crashed again.
16 root 1.238
17 root 1.237 4.27 Thu Jun 27 09:39:58 CEST 2019
18 root 1.236 - (libev) completely rewritten linuxaio backend, maybe
19     usable as a general-use backend.
20     - (libev) use more aggressive assertions to catch
21     more usage errors.
22 root 1.237 - allow users to re-enable assert() in case it is disabled
23     by perl (which is typically the case).
24 root 1.236
25 root 1.235 4.26 Mon Jun 24 23:39:40 CEST 2019
26     - (libev) included experimental linux aio backend.
27 root 1.234 - allow the linux aio backend to be used by default
28     only when explicitly configured during Makefile.PL time.
29 root 1.233
30 root 1.231 4.25 Fri Dec 21 08:04:26 CET 2018
31     - (libev) updated to libev 4.25, minor fixes and enhancements.
32 root 1.229 - document the requirement to "use EV" when using EV::MakeMaker.
33 root 1.228 - only use __register_atfork with glibc and uclibc, as musl
34     defines __linux__, but doesn't implement the linux standard
35     base ABI, nor makes itself detectable via a macro, both apparently
36     by design, winning the "broken by design 2016 award" - well done.
37 root 1.230 - correct EV::periodic example 24h after midnight -> one day after
38     midnight (reported by Felix Ostmann).
39 root 1.228
40 root 1.227 4.22 Sun Dec 20 02:34:39 CET 2015
41     - (libev) when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild
42     only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid
43     SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork,
44     so document what needs to be done in ev_loop_fork
45     (analyzed by Benjamin Mahler).
46     - (libev) remove superfluous sys/timeb.h include on win32
47     (analyzed by Jason Madden).
48     - updated libecb.
49    
50 root 1.226 4.21 Mon Jul 13 21:47:33 CEST 2015
51     - allow argument in timer->again.
52     - document timer->remaining.
53     - document default repeat value for timer->set.
54    
55 root 1.225 4.20 Sat Jun 20 13:07:34 CEST 2015
56     - added stability canary support.
57 root 1.224 - truly rely on automatic configuration for clock_gettime and others.
58 root 1.225 unfortunately, this doesn't help with activeperl and similar perls,
59 root 1.224 which define _POSIX_TIMERS without actually implementing any of it.
60 root 1.225 - (libev, ecb) make it compile as C++ again.
61     - (libev) fix a potential aliasing issue when accessing watcher cbs.
62 root 1.224
63 root 1.223 4.18 Sat Sep 6 20:37:23 CEST 2014
64     - use slightly better weay to find includes, to support multiarch
65     on newer perls.
66 root 1.185
67 root 1.222 4.17 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
68     - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
69     without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
70     in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
71     compatibility - I will never understand.
72 root 1.219
73 root 1.221 4.16 Sat Mar 8 16:49:05 CET 2014
74 root 1.216 - make sure EV::CHECK is available at all times.
75     - avoid a spurious warning when perl -w overrides "no warnings".
76 root 1.219 - use perl's signal implementation on WIN32.
77 root 1.220 - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible
78 root 1.221 pointers.
79     - (libev) mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin).
80     - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat).
81     - (libev) in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall
82     on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems
83     doing clock_gettime in userspace).
84     - (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being
85     broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble).
86 root 1.216
87 root 1.215 4.15 Fri Mar 1 12:15:53 CET 2013
88     - (libev) upgrade to 4.15 - too many changes to list.
89 root 1.214 - EV::run now returns a boolean.
90 root 1.211 - API version 5:1.
91 root 1.214 - document that cleanup watchers are not available via perl.
92 root 1.212 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
93 root 1.214 - remove dependencies on librt and libpthreads on GNU/Linux.
94 root 1.211
95 root 1.210 4.11 Sat Feb 4 19:56:26 CET 2012
96     - (libev) implement memory fences for (obsolete) llvm-gcc.
97    
98 root 1.209 4.10 Thu Jan 19 18:54:23 CET 2012
99     - (libev) fix a race where the workaround against the epoll fork
100     bugs caused signals to not be handled anymore.
101     - (libev) correct backend_fudge for most backends, and implement
102     a windows specific workaround to avoid looping because we call
103     both select and Sleep, both with different time resolutions.
104 root 1.207 - e_new wasn't declared static (causing very minor .so bloat).
105 root 1.208 - replace more old api names by new ones.
106 root 1.206
107 root 1.205 4.03 Tue Jan 11 14:51:05 CET 2011
108 root 1.203 - do not avoid the clock_gettime call on GNU/Linux anymore, as EV
109     links against -lpthread anyways - as a result, EV might now take
110     advantage of fast userspace clock_gettime implementations,
111     but also links against -lrt.
112 root 1.204 - (libev) lots of event port bug workarounds.
113     - (libev) officially support files in I/O watchers.
114     - (libev) new function ev_feed_signal.

116 root 1.203
117 root 1.202 4.02 Thu Dec 30 08:27:41 CET 2010
118     - the revents argument did not stringify correctly, as only the
119     numeric value was updated, while the string value was kept from
120     previous invocations.
121    
122 root 1.201 4.01 Sun Dec 5 12:42:13 CET 2010
123 root 1.197 - fully support EV_COMPAT3=0.
124 root 1.198 - default_fork was stupidly defined as inline.
125 root 1.199 - ask cpan to upgrade AnyEvent if < 5.29.
126 root 1.200 - support EV_EXTRA_DEFS during configuration.
127 root 1.201 - support -DEV_NO_LOOPS for snakker build.
128 root 1.197

130 root 1.194 - many API changes, see the manual.
131 root 1.196 - (libev) lots and lots of bugfixes, see the ev documentation.
132 root 1.187 - fix a bug where inotify usage would parse the same event
133     multiple times, causing various forms of breakage.
134     - greatly reduce stack usage for inotify (8kb to <0.5kb).
135 root 1.189 - expose ev_depth and ev_verify via the XS API.

143     translated to C.
144 root 1.193 - document the EV::CHECK runtime unavailability.
145 root 1.192 - ported to minix 3.1.7.
146 root 1.187
147 root 1.186 3.9 Thu Dec 31 07:59:59 CET 2009
148 root 1.182 - disable t/07* under automatic testing.
149 root 1.183 - increase t/09* timeouts as netbsd has *horribly* broken
150     select/kevent that *usually* sleep >>0.6s instead of 0.3.
151 root 1.184 - add constants EV::FLAG_NOSIGFD, EV::FLAG_NOINOTIFY and
152     EV::BACKEND_ALL.
153 root 1.185 - (libev) signalfd is no longer used by default.
154     - (libev) backport inotify code to C89.

163 root 1.180 - implement $loop->signal/signal_ns.
164 root 1.181 - (libev) incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal
165     handler to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped.
166     - (libev) ev_default_destroy did not properly free or zero some
167     members, potentially causing crashes and memory corruption on
168     repated ev_default_destroy/ev_default_loop calls.
169     - (libev) take advantage of signalfd on GNU/Linux systems.
170     - (libev) document that the signal mask might be in an unspecified
171     state when using libev's signal handling.
172     - (libev) take advantage of some GNU/Linux calls to set
173     cloexec/nonblock on fd creation, to avoid race conditions.
174     - implement internal glue code to interface more efficiently

176 root 1.180
177 root 1.177 3.7 Fri Jul 17 16:49:16 CEST 2009
178 root 1.171 - add EV::loop_verify and EV::loop_depth.
179 root 1.172 - use output filehandle for i/o watchers waiting

181     - use common schmorp.h header.
182 root 1.176 - add EV::Timer->remaining.
183 root 1.175 - allow for subclassing of EV::Loop (see the exciting

185     - added EV::invoke_pending and EV::pending_count.
186 root 1.171
187 root 1.177 - (libev) ev_unloop and ev_loop wrongly used a global variable to
188     exit loops, instead of using a per-loop variable.
189     - (libev) the ev_set_io_collect_interval interpretation has changed.
190     - add new functionality: EV::invoke_pending, EV::pending_count.
191     - add $timer->remaining.
192     - add EV::loop_depth.
193     - (libev) calling unloop in fork/prepare watchers will no longer poll
194     for new events.
195     - (libev) use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime instead of _timeb on windows,
196     for slightly higher accuracy.
197     - (libev) actually 0-initialise struct sigaction when installing
198     signals.
199    
200 root 1.170 3.6 Tue Apr 28 02:50:37 CEST 2009
201 root 1.167 - keepalive(0) could decrease the refcount of the loop
202     permanently.

204     accessible via the XS API.
205 root 1.169 - most EV::<eventtype> constants were missing and have been
206     added :/.
207     - add EV::VERSION_MAJOR/VERSION_MINOR constants.
208     - (libev) multiple timers becoming ready within an event loop
209     iteration will be invoked in the "correct" order now.
210     - (libev) do not leave the event loop early just because we have
211     no active watchers, fixing a problem when embedding a kqueue
212     loop that has active kernel events but no registered watchers
213     (reported by blacksand blacksand).
214     - (libev) correctly zero the idx values for arrays, so destroying
215     and reinitialising the default loop actually works (patch by
216     Malek Hadj-Ali).
217     - (libev) new EV::CUSTOM revents flag for use by applications.
218     - (libev) add documentation section about priorites.

224 root 1.166 3.53 Sun Feb 15 02:38:20 CET 2009
225     - (libev) on win32, the event loop creation could randomly fail
226     due to an initialised variable having the wrong value.
227 root 1.165 - (libev) probe for CLOCK_REALTIME support at runtime as well and
228     fall back to gettimeofday if there is an error, to support older
229     operating systems with newer header files/libraries.
230     - prefer gettimeofday over clock_gettime by default.
231    
232 root 1.164 3.52 Wed Jan 7 21:46:14 CET 2009
233 root 1.163 - (libev) fix some issues in the select backend when in fd_set mode.
234     - (libev) due to a thinko, instead of disabling everything but
235     select on the borked OS X platform, everything but select was
236     allowed (reported by Emanuele Giaquinta).
237     - (libev) actually verify that local and remote port are matching in
238     libev's socketpair emulation, which makes denial-of-service
239     attacks harder (but not impossible - it's windows). Make sure
240     it even works under vista, which thinks that getpeer/sockname
241     should return fantasy port numbers.
242    
243 root 1.162 3.51 Wed Dec 24 23:01:59 CET 2008
244 root 1.161 - do not cache the arguments passed to callbacks if the refcount
245     indicates that the callback has stolen them.
246 root 1.159 - (libev) try to avoid librt on GNU/Linux.

248     avoid problems.
249 root 1.162 - (libev) fix a bug with stat watchers possibly causing freezes.
250     - (libev) work around OS X 10.5 breaking poll, now select is the
251     only viable choice left on that pile of garbage.
252 root 1.161 - play tester whore: disable some tests that typically fail only
253     on cpan tester machines.
254 root 1.159
255 root 1.158 3.49 Wed Nov 19 11:26:53 CET 2008
256 root 1.155 - fix typos in manpage (Alex Efros).
257 root 1.156 - increase timing even further, for the ever-overloaded cpan-tester
258     machines, and to the detriment of everybody else who wants a fast
259     make test.
260 root 1.157 - possible 5.6 compatibility.
261 root 1.158 - (libev) use inotify even on buggy kernels, but don't rely on it.
262     - (libev) use inotify only as an added hint on network filesystems.
263 root 1.155
264 root 1.154 3.48 Thu Oct 30 09:09:48 CET 2008
265 root 1.152 - (libev) use a generation counter to detect spurious epoll events
266 root 1.151 and recreate the kernel in such a case (sorry, it's slow, but
267     I didn't design epoll...).
268 root 1.150 - (libev) optimise away an EPOLL_CTL_ADD/MOD combo in the epoll
269     backend in some cases.
270     - (libev) use memset to initialise most arrays now and do away
271     with the init functions.
272 root 1.152 - speed up event callback invocation further (~15%), by
273 root 1.151 not creating the object reference each time.
274 root 1.153 - EV::sleep was documented, but not implemented. fun.
275 root 1.150
276     3.45 Tue Oct 21 22:20:39 CEST 2008
277     - (libev) disable inotify usage on linux <2.6.25 (kernel bug).
278 root 1.146 - (libev) ev_embed will now automatically follow fork.
279     - (libev) ev_once will now pass both io and timeout events to
280     the callback when both happen concurrently, instead of giving
281     one precedence.
282 root 1.149 - install C library documentation as EV::libev manpage (sorry, oesi).
283 root 1.150 - (libev) fix a minor performance bug in ev_stat handling.
284 root 1.146
285 root 1.145 3.44 Mon Sep 29 05:16:31 CEST 2008
286 root 1.144 - (libev) add EV::now_update and $loop->now_update.

294     and harmless.
295    
296 root 1.139 3.42 Mon May 26 07:36:46 CEST 2008
297 root 1.138 - (libev) work around another bug in windows perls and
298     windows itself: failed connects do NOT set read or write
299     flags in select, but this version of libev will.
300    
301 root 1.136 3.41 Thu May 22 01:39:40 CEST 2008
302 root 1.135 - (libev) fix many heap-related bugs (timers, periodics).
303 root 1.134 - (libev) improve timing stability of timers and periodics.
304 root 1.137 - expose ev_loop_verify to perl code.
305 root 1.134 - clarify documentation for periodic reschedule callbacks.
306     - verify that the passed callback argument is indeed a code
307     reference, for earlier error reporting and a nice calling
308     speed increase (as well as saving memory).
309
