27TODO: canary
28 - document the requirement to "use EV" when using EV::MakeMaker.
29 - only use __register_atfork with glibc and uclibc, as musl
30 defines __linux__, but doesn't implement the linux standard
31 base ABI, nor makes itself detectable via a macro, both apparently
32 by design, winning the "broken by design 2016 award" - well done.
33 - correct EV::periodic example 24h after midnight -> one day after
34 midnight (reported by Felix Ostmann).
35
364.22 Sun Dec 20 02:34:39 CET 2015
37 - (libev) when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild
38 only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid
39 SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork,
40 so document what needs to be done in ev_loop_fork
41 (analyzed by Benjamin Mahler).
42 - (libev) remove superfluous sys/timeb.h include on win32
43 (analyzed by Jason Madden).
44 - updated libecb.
45
464.21 Mon Jul 13 21:47:33 CEST 2015
47 - allow argument in timer->again.
48 - document timer->remaining.
49 - document default repeat value for timer->set.
50
514.20 Sat Jun 20 13:07:34 CEST 2015
52 - added stability canary support.
53 - truly rely on automatic configuration for clock_gettime and others.
54 unfortunately, this doesn't help with activeperl and similar perls,
55 which define _POSIX_TIMERS without actually implementing any of it.
56 - (libev, ecb) make it compile as C++ again.
57 - (libev) fix a potential aliasing issue when accessing watcher cbs.
58
594.18 Sat Sep 6 20:37:23 CEST 2014
60 - use slightly better weay to find includes, to support multiarch
61 on newer perls.
62
634.17 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
64 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
65 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
66 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
67 compatibility - I will never understand.
68
694.16 Sat Mar 8 16:49:05 CET 2014
70 - make sure EV::CHECK is available at all times.
71 - avoid a spurious warning when perl -w overrides "no warnings".
72 - use perl's signal implementation on WIN32.
73 - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible
74 pointers.
75 - (libev) mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin).
76 - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat).
77 - (libev) in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall
78 on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems
79 doing clock_gettime in userspace).
80 - (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being
81 broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble).
82
834.15 Fri Mar 1 12:15:53 CET 2013
84 - (libev) upgrade to 4.15 - too many changes to list.
85 - EV::run now returns a boolean.
86 - API version 5:1.
87 - document that cleanup watchers are not available via perl.
88 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
89 - remove dependencies on librt and libpthreads on GNU/Linux.
90
914.11 Sat Feb 4 19:56:26 CET 2012
92 - (libev) implement memory fences for (obsolete) llvm-gcc.
93
944.10 Thu Jan 19 18:54:23 CET 2012
95 - (libev) fix a race where the workaround against the epoll fork
96 bugs caused signals to not be handled anymore.
97 - (libev) correct backend_fudge for most backends, and implement
98 a windows specific workaround to avoid looping because we call
99 both select and Sleep, both with different time resolutions.
100 - e_new wasn't declared static (causing very minor .so bloat).
101 - replace more old api names by new ones.
102
1034.03 Tue Jan 11 14:51:05 CET 2011
104 - do not avoid the clock_gettime call on GNU/Linux anymore, as EV
105 links against -lpthread anyways - as a result, EV might now take
106 advantage of fast userspace clock_gettime implementations,
107 but also links against -lrt.
108 - (libev) lots of event port bug workarounds.
109 - (libev) officially support files in I/O watchers.
110 - (libev) new function ev_feed_signal.
111 - fix documentation parts still refering to the 3.x API.
112
1134.02 Thu Dec 30 08:27:41 CET 2010
114 - the revents argument did not stringify correctly, as only the
115 numeric value was updated, while the string value was kept from
116 previous invocations.
117
1184.01 Sun Dec 5 12:42:13 CET 2010
119 - fully support EV_COMPAT3=0.
120 - default_fork was stupidly defined as inline.
121 - ask cpan to upgrade AnyEvent if < 5.29.
122 - support EV_EXTRA_DEFS during configuration.
123 - support -DEV_NO_LOOPS for snakker build.
124
1254.00 Mon Oct 25 13:30:09 CEST 2010
126 - many API changes, see the manual.
127 - (libev) lots and lots of bugfixes, see the ev documentation.
128 - fix a bug where inotify usage would parse the same event
129 multiple times, causing various forms of breakage.
130 - greatly reduce stack usage for inotify (8kb to <0.5kb).
131 - expose ev_depth and ev_verify via the XS API.
132 - implement ev_cleanup watchers.
133 - (libev) ev_embed_stop did not correctly stop the watcher.
134 - (libev) disable poll backend on AIX.
135 - (libev) rename EV_TIMEOUT to EV_TIMER.
136 - (libev) add section on accept() problems to the manpage.
137 - (libev) no child watchers on win32.
138 - make code more aliasing compliant, in case perl is ever
139 translated to C.
140 - document the EV::CHECK runtime unavailability.
141 - ported to minix 3.1.7.
142
1433.9 Thu Dec 31 07:59:59 CET 2009
3 - disable t/07* under automatic testing. 144 - disable t/07* under automatic testing.
4 - increase t/09* timeouts as netbsd has *horribly* broken 145 - increase t/09* timeouts as netbsd has *horribly* broken
5 select/kevent that *usually* sleep >>0.6s instead of 0.3. 146 select/kevent that *usually* sleep >>0.6s instead of 0.3.
6 - add constants EV::FLAG_NOSIGFD, EV::FLAG_NOINOTIFY and 147 - add constants EV::FLAG_NOSIGFD, EV::FLAG_NOINOTIFY and
7 EV::BACKEND_ALL. 148 EV::BACKEND_ALL.
149 - (libev) signalfd is no longer used by default.
150 - (libev) backport inotify code to C89.
151 - (libev) inotify file descriptors could leak into child processes.
152 - (libev) ev_stat watchers could keep an errornous extra ref on the loop.
153 - (libev) take advantage of inotify_init1, if available.
154 - (libev) the signal handling pipe wasn't always initialised under windows.
155 - changed minimum glibc requirement from glibc 2.9 to 2.7, for signalfd.
156 - (libev) only replace ev_stat.prev when we detect an actual difference.

93.8 Sun Aug 9 15:30:10 CEST 2009 1583.8 Sun Aug 9 15:30:10 CEST 2009
10 - implement $loop->signal/signal_ns. 159 - implement $loop->signal/signal_ns.
11 - (libev) incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal 160 - (libev) incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal
12 handler to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped. 161 handler to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped.
