3TODO: document embed watchers
4TODO: document ev_set_*collect and ev_sleep
5
6 - no longer force kqueue when enabled, enable it
7 on more systems (as its now by default not used on most).
8 - expose fork watchers.
9 - switch to libev's MULTIPLICITY API.
10 - use a slightly different include file name strategy.
11 - get rid of (unused) libevent emulation.
12 - 5% watcher management speedup due to callback optimisation
13 when inline closures are used, 5% slowdown due to multiplicity.
14 - very minimal support for dynamic event loops and embed watchers.
15 - fix name of prepare start/stop methods.
16 - create and export EV::sleep and EV::set_*_collect_interval.
17 - (libev) new ev_sleep, ev_set_(io|timeout)_collect_interval.
18 - (libev) removed epoll from embeddable fd set.
19 - (libev) fix embed watchers.
20 - (libev) renamed ev_embed.loop to other.
21 - (libev) added exported Symbol tables.
22 - (libev) undefine member wrapper macros at the end of ev.c.
23 - (libev) respect EV_H in ev++.h.

251.86 Tue Dec 18 02:36:57 CET 2007
26 - (libev) fix memleak on loop destroy (not relevant for perl).
27 - add periodic->at methods.
28
291.85 Fri Dec 14 20:32:40 CET 2007
30 - further optimise epoll backend by adding a heuristic that
31 avoids EPOLL_CTL_DEL calls if possible.
32 - EV::signal->start was not async-signal safe.
33 - (libev) fix some aliasing issues w.r.t. timers and periodics
34 (not relevant for perl).
35 - optimise start/stop when the fd hasn't changed.
36
371.8 Tue Dec 11 22:17:46 CET 2007
38 - API version 3:0.
39 - reduced fudge factor to zero for select, poll, epoll
40 and kqueue: your system better be posix-compliant
41 even in its extensions :->
42 - improve long-term numerical stability in periodic watchers
43 by introducing a separate offset value instead of reusing at.
44 - recalculate real/monotonic clocks before blocking fully
45 to avoid blocking for longer than necessary.
46 - fix bugs in the heap functions. this rarely lead to illegal
47 heap orderings.
48
491.72 Sat Dec 8 15:31:26 CET 2007
50 - add dummy loop arguments to some EVAPI functions
51 so that clients can use EV_A and EV_DEFAULT.
52 - expose ev_clear_pending.
53 - renamed trigger to invoke.
54
551.71 Fri Dec 7 19:10:24 CET 2007
56 - changed/implemented idle watcher priority.
57 - allow out-of-range priorities to be set.
58 - fix ->priority to actually work on started watchers.
59 - improved testsuite.
60
611.6 Wed Dec 5 15:06:20 CET 2007
62 - add a missing SPAGAIN.
63 - ripped out EV::DNS, use EV::ADNS for a better backend.
64 - make ev_time callable from EVAPI.h.
65 - add EV::loop_count.
66 - some space optimisations.
67
681.5 Wed Nov 28 20:19:09 CET 2007
69 - add inotify backend.
70 - make testsuite even less sensible to timing issues,
71 add more stat tests.
72 - add ->attr, ->prev, ->stat calls to stat watcher.
73
741.4 Tue Nov 27 17:35:27 CET 2007
75 - work around a linux 2.4 kernel bug in child handlers.
76 - implement stat watcher interface.
77 - implement fork watcher interface.
78 - io->set did not keep the fh alive.
79 - actively check signal numbers/names to be valid.
80 - cleanups, minor fixes, new bugs.
81 - work around windows bugs in the testsuite.
82
831.3 Sun Nov 25 10:46:57 CET 2007
84 - stopping idle/check/prepare watchers could cause data corruption.
85 - implement and document EV::once.
86 - improved documentation, verify that netbsd indeed has the only
87 working kqueue implementation (out of darwin, freebsd, netbsd and
88 openbsd). Praise them!
89 - fix the data method so it might work.
90 - expose ev_ref/ev_unref to the C API.
91 - expose ref/unref in form of the ->keepalive method to perl.
92 - minor bugfixes and portability fixes.
93
941.2 Thu Nov 22 05:44:09 CET 2007
95 - disable kqueue by default on !netbsd, as its broken on freebsd,
96 darwin and openbsd and thus almost everywhere.
97 - add some allowance in t/01_timer.t for the uneven monotonic
98 vs. realtime clock tick on at least freebsd.
99 - add -lsocket -lnsl on solaris in case the perl guy forgot to
100 configure them.
101
1021.1 Wed Nov 21 06:08:48 CET 2007
103 - improved timer test to include periodics and
