1Revision history for Perl extension EV 1Revision history for Perl extension EV and the embedded libev library
2
33.41 Thu May 22 01:39:40 CEST 2008
4 - (libev) fix many heap-related bugs (timers, periodics).
5 - (libev) improve timing stability of timers and periodics.
6 - clarify documentation for periodic reschedule callbacks.
7 - verify that the passed callback argument is indeed a code
8 reference, for earlier error reporting and a nice calling
9 speed increase (as well as saving memory).
10
113.4 Tue May 20 21:51:55 CEST 2008
12 - (libev) work around both a windows bug and a bug in perl's
13 select on windows when not waiting for any file descriptors.
14 - bundle ev.pod into the tarball, just to increase its size
15 (and for the poor internetless person).
16
173.33 Sun May 18 12:43:04 CEST 2008
18 - (libev) use numerous enhancements such as a more
19 cache-friendly 4-heap and heap index caching for timers.
20 - remove undocumented ev_timer->at accessor.
21
223.31 Wed Apr 16 20:48:59 CEST 2008
23 - (libev) post-last-minute fix for ev_poll.c problem.
24
253.3 Wed Apr 16 19:04:47 CEST 2008
26 - (libev) linux eventfd support.
27 - (libev) inline more with C99 compilers.
28 - (libev) work around a number of bugs in valgrind.
29 - (libev) work around broken realloc on openbsd and darwin.
30 - added example to EV::MakeMaker manpage.
31 - add async_pending method.
32
333.2 Wed Apr 2 17:08:16 CEST 2008
34 - "ported" again to the Microsoft "C" language.
35 - relax testsuite timing for the benefit of freebsd users once more.
36 - fix EVAPI's ev_time and ev_sleep macros.
37 - (libev) fix select backend on 64 bit architetcures.
38 - (libev) ev_loop flags are now local to each invocation.
39
403.1 Sat Mar 8 11:41:14 CET 2008
41 - add ev_sync_* and ev_fork_* to EVAPI.h.
42 - provide EV::Embed->sweep method.
43 - new watcher type: async (not very useful in perl).
44
453.0 Mon Jan 28 13:23:11 CET 2008
46 - upgrade to libev-3.0.
47 - change child handler to incorporate tracing flag.
48
492.01 Mon Dec 31 01:59:19 CET 2007
50 - found a minor problem in the testsuite that is only
51 caught by new Test::Harness versions (reported by Andreas
52 König).
53
542.0 Sat Dec 22 17:47:03 CET 2007
55 - no longer force kqueue when enabled, enable it
56 on more systems (as its now by default not used on most).
57 - expose fork watchers.
58 - switch to libev's MULTIPLICITY API.
59 - use a slightly different include file name strategy.
60 - get rid of (unused) libevent emulation.
61 - 5% watcher management speedup due to callback optimisation
62 when inline closures are used, 5% slowdown due to multiplicity.
63 - very minimal support for dynamic event loops and embed watchers.
64 - fix name of prepare start/stop methods.
65 - create and export EV::sleep and EV::set_*_collect_interval.
66 - fix typos in manpage (Alex Efros).
67
681.86 Tue Dec 18 02:36:57 CET 2007
69 - add periodic->at methods.
70
711.85 Fri Dec 14 20:32:40 CET 2007
72 - further optimise epoll backend by adding a heuristic that
73 avoids EPOLL_CTL_DEL calls if possible.
74 - EV::signal->start was not async-signal safe.
75 - optimise start/stop when the fd hasn't changed.
76
771.8 Tue Dec 11 22:17:46 CET 2007
78 - API version 3:0.
79 - reduced fudge factor to zero for select, poll, epoll
80 and kqueue: your system better be posix-compliant
81 even in its extensions :->
82 - improve long-term numerical stability in periodic watchers
83 by introducing a separate offset value instead of reusing at.
84 - recalculate real/monotonic clocks before blocking fully
85 to avoid blocking for longer than necessary.
86 - fix bugs in the heap functions. this rarely lead to illegal
87 heap orderings.
