27 - only use __register_atfork with glibc and uclibc, as musl
28 defines __linux__, but doesn't implement the linux standard
29 base ABI, nor makes itself detectable via a macro, both apparently
30 by design, winning the "broken by design 2016 award" - well done.
31
324.22 Sun Dec 20 02:34:39 CET 2015
33 - (libev) when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild
34 only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid
35 SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork,
36 so document what needs to be done in ev_loop_fork
37 (analyzed by Benjamin Mahler).
38 - (libev) remove superfluous sys/timeb.h include on win32
39 (analyzed by Jason Madden).
40 - updated libecb.
41
424.21 Mon Jul 13 21:47:33 CEST 2015
43 - allow argument in timer->again.
44 - document timer->remaining.
45 - document default repeat value for timer->set.
46
474.20 Sat Jun 20 13:07:34 CEST 2015
48 - added stability canary support.
49 - truly rely on automatic configuration for clock_gettime and others.
50 unfortunately, this doesn't help with activeperl and similar perls,
51 which define _POSIX_TIMERS without actually implementing any of it.
52 - (libev, ecb) make it compile as C++ again.
53 - (libev) fix a potential aliasing issue when accessing watcher cbs.
54
554.18 Sat Sep 6 20:37:23 CEST 2014
56 - use slightly better weay to find includes, to support multiarch
57 on newer perls.
58
594.17 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
60 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
61 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
62 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
63 compatibility - I will never understand.
64
654.16 Sat Mar 8 16:49:05 CET 2014
66 - make sure EV::CHECK is available at all times.
67 - avoid a spurious warning when perl -w overrides "no warnings".
68 - use perl's signal implementation on WIN32.
69 - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible
70 pointers.
71 - (libev) mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin).
72 - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat).
73 - (libev) in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall
74 on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems
75 doing clock_gettime in userspace).
76 - (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being
77 broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble).
78
794.15 Fri Mar 1 12:15:53 CET 2013
80 - (libev) upgrade to 4.15 - too many changes to list.
81 - EV::run now returns a boolean.
82 - API version 5:1.
83 - document that cleanup watchers are not available via perl.
84 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
85 - remove dependencies on librt and libpthreads on GNU/Linux.
86
874.11 Sat Feb 4 19:56:26 CET 2012
88 - (libev) implement memory fences for (obsolete) llvm-gcc.
89
904.10 Thu Jan 19 18:54:23 CET 2012
91 - (libev) fix a race where the workaround against the epoll fork
92 bugs caused signals to not be handled anymore.
93 - (libev) correct backend_fudge for most backends, and implement
94 a windows specific workaround to avoid looping because we call
95 both select and Sleep, both with different time resolutions.
96 - e_new wasn't declared static (causing very minor .so bloat).
97 - replace more old api names by new ones.
98
994.03 Tue Jan 11 14:51:05 CET 2011
100 - do not avoid the clock_gettime call on GNU/Linux anymore, as EV
101 links against -lpthread anyways - as a result, EV might now take
102 advantage of fast userspace clock_gettime implementations,
103 but also links against -lrt.
104 - (libev) lots of event port bug workarounds.
105 - (libev) officially support files in I/O watchers.
106 - (libev) new function ev_feed_signal.
107 - fix documentation parts still refering to the 3.x API.
108
1094.02 Thu Dec 30 08:27:41 CET 2010
110 - the revents argument did not stringify correctly, as only the
111 numeric value was updated, while the string value was kept from
112 previous invocations.
113
1144.01 Sun Dec 5 12:42:13 CET 2010
115 - fully support EV_COMPAT3=0.
116 - default_fork was stupidly defined as inline.
117 - ask cpan to upgrade AnyEvent if < 5.29.
118 - support EV_EXTRA_DEFS during configuration.
119 - support -DEV_NO_LOOPS for snakker build.
120
1214.00 Mon Oct 25 13:30:09 CEST 2010
122 - many API changes, see the manual.
123 - (libev) lots and lots of bugfixes, see the ev documentation.
124 - fix a bug where inotify usage would parse the same event
125 multiple times, causing various forms of breakage.
126 - greatly reduce stack usage for inotify (8kb to <0.5kb).
127 - expose ev_depth and ev_verify via the XS API.
128 - implement ev_cleanup watchers.
129 - (libev) ev_embed_stop did not correctly stop the watcher.
130 - (libev) disable poll backend on AIX.
131 - (libev) rename EV_TIMEOUT to EV_TIMER.
132 - (libev) add section on accept() problems to the manpage.
133 - (libev) no child watchers on win32.
134 - make code more aliasing compliant, in case perl is ever
135 translated to C.
136 - document the EV::CHECK runtime unavailability.
137 - ported to minix 3.1.7.
138
1393.9 Thu Dec 31 07:59:59 CET 2009
140 - disable t/07* under automatic testing.
141 - increase t/09* timeouts as netbsd has *horribly* broken
142 select/kevent that *usually* sleep >>0.6s instead of 0.3.
143 - add constants EV::FLAG_NOSIGFD, EV::FLAG_NOINOTIFY and
144 EV::BACKEND_ALL.
145 - (libev) signalfd is no longer used by default.
146 - (libev) backport inotify code to C89.
147 - (libev) inotify file descriptors could leak into child processes.
148 - (libev) ev_stat watchers could keep an errornous extra ref on the loop.
149 - (libev) take advantage of inotify_init1, if available.
150 - (libev) the signal handling pipe wasn't always initialised under windows.
151 - changed minimum glibc requirement from glibc 2.9 to 2.7, for signalfd.
152 - (libev) only replace ev_stat.prev when we detect an actual difference.

33.8 Sun Aug 9 15:30:10 CEST 2009 1543.8 Sun Aug 9 15:30:10 CEST 2009
4 - implement $loop->signal/signal_ns. 155 - implement $loop->signal/signal_ns.
5 - (libev) incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal 156 - (libev) incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal
6 handler to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped. 157 handler to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped.
