6 | 4.20 Sat Jun 20 13:07:34 CEST 2015 |
|
|
7 | - added stability canary support. |
|
|
8 | - truly rely on automatic configuration for clock_gettime and others. |
|
|
9 | unfortunately, this doesn't help with activeperl and similar perls, |
|
|
10 | which define _POSIX_TIMERS without actually implementing any of it. |
|
|
11 | - (libev, ecb) make it compile as C++ again. |
|
|
12 | - (libev) fix a potential aliasing issue when accessing watcher cbs. |
|

14 | 4.18 Sat Sep 6 20:37:23 CEST 2014 |
|
|
15 | - use slightly better weay to find includes, to support multiarch |
|
|
16 | on newer perls. |
|
|

|
18 | 4.17 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014 |
|
|
19 | - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL |
|
|
20 | without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES |
|
|
21 | in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards |
|
|
22 | compatibility - I will never understand. |
|
|
23 | |
|
|
24 | 4.16 Sat Mar 8 16:49:05 CET 2014 |
|
|
25 | - make sure EV::CHECK is available at all times. |
|
|
26 | - avoid a spurious warning when perl -w overrides "no warnings". |
|
|
27 | - use perl's signal implementation on WIN32. |
|
|
28 | - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible |
|
|
29 | pointers. |
|
|
30 | - (libev) mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin). |
|
|
31 | - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat). |
|
|
32 | - (libev) in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall |
|
|
33 | on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems |
|
|
34 | doing clock_gettime in userspace). |
|
|
35 | - (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being |
|
|
36 | broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble). |
|
|
37 | |
|
|
38 | 4.15 Fri Mar 1 12:15:53 CET 2013 |
|
|
39 | - (libev) upgrade to 4.15 - too many changes to list. |
|
|
40 | - EV::run now returns a boolean. |
|
|
41 | - API version 5:1. |
|
|
42 | - document that cleanup watchers are not available via perl. |
|
|
43 | - cast I32 to int in error message printf. |
|
|
44 | - remove dependencies on librt and libpthreads on GNU/Linux. |
|
|
45 | |
|
|
46 | 4.11 Sat Feb 4 19:56:26 CET 2012 |
|
|
47 | - (libev) implement memory fences for (obsolete) llvm-gcc. |
|
|
48 | |
|
|
49 | 4.10 Thu Jan 19 18:54:23 CET 2012 |
|
|
50 | - (libev) fix a race where the workaround against the epoll fork |
|
|
51 | bugs caused signals to not be handled anymore. |
|
|
52 | - (libev) correct backend_fudge for most backends, and implement |
|
|
53 | a windows specific workaround to avoid looping because we call |
|
|
54 | both select and Sleep, both with different time resolutions. |
| 6 | - e_new wasn'tr declared static (causing very minor .so bloat). |
55 | - e_new wasn't declared static (causing very minor .so bloat). |
|
|
56 | - replace more old api names by new ones. |
