1Revision history for Perl extension EV 1Revision history for Perl extension EV and the embedded libev library
2 2
33.3 Wed Apr 16 19:04:47 CEST 2008
4 - (libev) linux eventfd support.
5 - (libev) inline more with C99 compilers.
6 - (libev) work around a number of bugs in valgrind.
7 - (libev) work around broken realloc on openbsd and darwin.
8 - added example to EV::MakeMaker manpage.
9 - add async_pending method.
10
113.2 Wed Apr 2 17:08:16 CEST 2008
12 - "ported" again to the Microsoft "C" language.
13 - relax testsuite timing for the benefit of freebsd users once more.
14 - fix EVAPI's ev_time and ev_sleep macros.
15 - (libev) fix select backend on 64 bit architetcures.
16 - (libev) ev_loop flags are now local to each invocation.
17
183.1 Sat Mar 8 11:41:14 CET 2008
19 - add ev_sync_* and ev_fork_* to EVAPI.h.
20 - provide EV::Embed->sweep method.
21 - new watcher type: async (not very useful in perl).
22
233.0 Mon Jan 28 13:23:11 CET 2008
24 - upgrade to libev-3.0.
25 - change child handler to incorporate tracing flag.
26
272.01 Mon Dec 31 01:59:19 CET 2007
28 - found a minor problem in the testsuite that is only
29 caught by new Test::Harness versions (reported by Andreas
30 König).
31
322.0 Sat Dec 22 17:47:03 CET 2007
33 - no longer force kqueue when enabled, enable it
34 on more systems (as its now by default not used on most).
35 - expose fork watchers.
36 - switch to libev's MULTIPLICITY API.
37 - use a slightly different include file name strategy.
38 - get rid of (unused) libevent emulation.
39 - 5% watcher management speedup due to callback optimisation
40 when inline closures are used, 5% slowdown due to multiplicity.
41 - very minimal support for dynamic event loops and embed watchers.
42 - fix name of prepare start/stop methods.
43 - create and export EV::sleep and EV::set_*_collect_interval.
44 - fix typos in manpage (Alex Efros).
45
461.86 Tue Dec 18 02:36:57 CET 2007
47 - add periodic->at methods.
48
491.85 Fri Dec 14 20:32:40 CET 2007
50 - further optimise epoll backend by adding a heuristic that
51 avoids EPOLL_CTL_DEL calls if possible.
52 - EV::signal->start was not async-signal safe.
53 - optimise start/stop when the fd hasn't changed.
54
551.8 Tue Dec 11 22:17:46 CET 2007
56 - API version 3:0.
57 - reduced fudge factor to zero for select, poll, epoll
58 and kqueue: your system better be posix-compliant
59 even in its extensions :->
60 - improve long-term numerical stability in periodic watchers
61 by introducing a separate offset value instead of reusing at.
62 - recalculate real/monotonic clocks before blocking fully
63 to avoid blocking for longer than necessary.
64 - fix bugs in the heap functions. this rarely lead to illegal
65 heap orderings.
66
671.72 Sat Dec 8 15:31:26 CET 2007
68 - add dummy loop arguments to some EVAPI functions
69 so that clients can use EV_A and EV_DEFAULT.
70 - expose ev_clear_pending.
71 - renamed trigger to invoke.
72
731.71 Fri Dec 7 19:10:24 CET 2007
74 - changed/implemented idle watcher priority.
75 - allow out-of-range priorities to be set.
76 - fix ->priority to actually work on started watchers.
77 - improved testsuite.
78
791.6 Wed Dec 5 15:06:20 CET 2007
80 - add a missing SPAGAIN.
81 - ripped out EV::DNS, use EV::ADNS for a better backend.
82 - make ev_time callable from EVAPI.h.
83 - add EV::loop_count.
84 - some space optimisations.
85
861.5 Wed Nov 28 20:19:09 CET 2007

91
921.4 Tue Nov 27 17:35:27 CET 2007
93 - work around a linux 2.4 kernel bug in child handlers.
94 - implement stat watcher interface.

1011.3 Sun Nov 25 10:46:57 CET 2007
102 - stopping idle/check/prepare watchers could cause data corruption.
103 - implement and document EV::once.
104 - improved documentation, verify that netbsd indeed has the only

106 openbsd). Praise them!
107 - fix the data method so it might work.
108 - expose ev_ref/ev_unref to the C API.

111
1121.2 Thu Nov 22 05:44:09 CET 2007
113 - disable kqueue by default on !netbsd, as its broken on freebsd,
114 darwin and openbsd and thus almost everywhere.
115 - add some allowance in t/01_timer.t for the uneven monotonic
116 vs. realtime clock tick on at least freebsd.
117 - add -lsocket -lnsl on solaris in case the perl guy forgot to
118 configure them.
119
1201.1 Wed Nov 21 06:08:48 CET 2007

127 - add solaris 10 port-based backend.
128 - add child_ns and fix check_ns.
129 - treat yes/no as enforcement, not as hint, when configuring,
130 documentation update (reported by Andy Grundman).
