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
344.22 Sun Dec 20 02:34:39 CET 2015
35 - (libev) when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild
36 only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid
37 SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork,
38 so document what needs to be done in ev_loop_fork
39 (analyzed by Benjamin Mahler).
40 - (libev) remove superfluous sys/timeb.h include on win32
41 (analyzed by Jason Madden).
42 - updated libecb.
43
444.21 Mon Jul 13 21:47:33 CEST 2015
45 - allow argument in timer->again.
46 - document timer->remaining.
47 - document default repeat value for timer->set.
48
494.20 Sat Jun 20 13:07:34 CEST 2015
50 - added stability canary support.
51 - truly rely on automatic configuration for clock_gettime and others.
52 unfortunately, this doesn't help with activeperl and similar perls,
53 which define _POSIX_TIMERS without actually implementing any of it.
54 - (libev, ecb) make it compile as C++ again.
55 - (libev) fix a potential aliasing issue when accessing watcher cbs.
56
574.18 Sat Sep 6 20:37:23 CEST 2014
58 - use slightly better weay to find includes, to support multiarch
59 on newer perls.
60
614.17 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
62 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
63 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
64 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
65 compatibility - I will never understand.
66
674.16 Sat Mar 8 16:49:05 CET 2014
68 - make sure EV::CHECK is available at all times.
69 - avoid a spurious warning when perl -w overrides "no warnings".
70 - use perl's signal implementation on WIN32.
71 - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible
72 pointers.
73 - (libev) mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin).
74 - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat).
75 - (libev) in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall
76 on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems
77 doing clock_gettime in userspace).
78 - (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being
79 broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble).
80
814.15 Fri Mar 1 12:15:53 CET 2013
82 - (libev) upgrade to 4.15 - too many changes to list.
83 - EV::run now returns a boolean.
84 - API version 5:1.
85 - document that cleanup watchers are not available via perl.
86 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
87 - remove dependencies on librt and libpthreads on GNU/Linux.
88
894.11 Sat Feb 4 19:56:26 CET 2012
90 - (libev) implement memory fences for (obsolete) llvm-gcc.
91
924.10 Thu Jan 19 18:54:23 CET 2012
93 - (libev) fix a race where the workaround against the epoll fork
94 bugs caused signals to not be handled anymore.
95 - (libev) correct backend_fudge for most backends, and implement
96 a windows specific workaround to avoid looping because we call
97 both select and Sleep, both with different time resolutions.
98 - e_new wasn't declared static (causing very minor .so bloat).
99 - replace more old api names by new ones.
100
1014.03 Tue Jan 11 14:51:05 CET 2011
102 - do not avoid the clock_gettime call on GNU/Linux anymore, as EV
103 links against -lpthread anyways - as a result, EV might now take
104 advantage of fast userspace clock_gettime implementations,
105 but also links against -lrt.
106 - (libev) lots of event port bug workarounds.
107 - (libev) officially support files in I/O watchers.
108 - (libev) new function ev_feed_signal.
109 - fix documentation parts still refering to the 3.x API.
110
1114.02 Thu Dec 30 08:27:41 CET 2010
112 - the revents argument did not stringify correctly, as only the
113 numeric value was updated, while the string value was kept from
114 previous invocations.
115
1164.01 Sun Dec 5 12:42:13 CET 2010
117 - fully support EV_COMPAT3=0.
118 - default_fork was stupidly defined as inline.
119 - ask cpan to upgrade AnyEvent if < 5.29.
120 - support EV_EXTRA_DEFS during configuration.
121 - support -DEV_NO_LOOPS for snakker build.
122
1234.00 Mon Oct 25 13:30:09 CEST 2010
124 - many API changes, see the manual.
125 - (libev) lots and lots of bugfixes, see the ev documentation.
126 - fix a bug where inotify usage would parse the same event
127 multiple times, causing various forms of breakage.
128 - greatly reduce stack usage for inotify (8kb to <0.5kb).
129 - expose ev_depth and ev_verify via the XS API.
130 - implement ev_cleanup watchers.
131 - (libev) ev_embed_stop did not correctly stop the watcher.
132 - (libev) disable poll backend on AIX.
133 - (libev) rename EV_TIMEOUT to EV_TIMER.
134 - (libev) add section on accept() problems to the manpage.
135 - (libev) no child watchers on win32.
136 - make code more aliasing compliant, in case perl is ever
137 translated to C.
138 - document the EV::CHECK runtime unavailability.
139 - ported to minix 3.1.7.
140
1413.9 Thu Dec 31 07:59:59 CET 2009
3 - disable t/07* under automatic testing. 142 - disable t/07* under automatic testing.
143 - increase t/09* timeouts as netbsd has *horribly* broken
144 select/kevent that *usually* sleep >>0.6s instead of 0.3.
145 - add constants EV::FLAG_NOSIGFD, EV::FLAG_NOINOTIFY and
146 EV::BACKEND_ALL.
147 - (libev) signalfd is no longer used by default.
148 - (libev) backport inotify code to C89.
149 - (libev) inotify file descriptors could leak into child processes.
150 - (libev) ev_stat watchers could keep an errornous extra ref on the loop.
151 - (libev) take advantage of inotify_init1, if available.
152 - (libev) the signal handling pipe wasn't always initialised under windows.
153 - changed minimum glibc requirement from glibc 2.9 to 2.7, for signalfd.
154 - (libev) only replace ev_stat.prev when we detect an actual difference.
4 155
53.8 Sun Aug 9 15:30:10 CEST 2009 1563.8 Sun Aug 9 15:30:10 CEST 2009
6 - implement $loop->signal/signal_ns. 157 - implement $loop->signal/signal_ns.
7 - (libev) incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal 158 - (libev) incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal
8 handler to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped. 159 handler to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped.
