3TODO: document embed watchers
4
5 - no longer force kqueue when enabled, enable it
6 on more systems (as its now by default not used on most).
7 - expose fork watchers.
8 - switch to libev's MULTIPLICITY API.
9 - use a slightly different include file name strategy.
10 - get rid of (unused) libevent emulation.
11 - 5% watcher management speedup due to callback optimisation
12 when inline closures are used, 5% slowdown due to multiplicity.
13 - very minimal support for dynamic event loops and embed watchers.
14 - (libev) fix embed watchers.
15 - (libev) renamed ev_embed.loop to other.
16 - (libev) added exported Symbol tables.
17 - (libev) undefine member wrapper macros at the end of ev.c.
18 - (libev) respect EV_H in ev++.h.

201.86 Tue Dec 18 02:36:57 CET 2007
21 - (libev) fix memleak on loop destroy (not relevant for perl).
22 - add periodic->at methods.
23
241.85 Fri Dec 14 20:32:40 CET 2007
25 - further optimise epoll backend by adding a heuristic that
26 avoids EPOLL_CTL_DEL calls if possible.
27 - EV::signal->start was not async-signal safe.
28 - (libev) fix some aliasing issues w.r.t. timers and periodics
29 (not relevant for perl).
30 - optimise start/stop when the fd hasn't changed.
31
321.8 Tue Dec 11 22:17:46 CET 2007
33 - API version 3:0.
34 - reduced fudge factor to zero for select, poll, epoll
35 and kqueue: your system better be posix-compliant
36 even in its extensions :->
37 - improve long-term numerical stability in periodic watchers
38 by introducing a separate offset value instead of reusing at.
39 - recalculate real/monotonic clocks before blocking fully
40 to avoid blocking for longer than necessary.
41 - fix bugs in the heap functions. this rarely lead to illegal
42 heap orderings.
43
441.72 Sat Dec 8 15:31:26 CET 2007
45 - add dummy loop arguments to some EVAPI functions
46 so that clients can use EV_A and EV_DEFAULT.
47 - expose ev_clear_pending.
48 - renamed trigger to invoke.
49
501.71 Fri Dec 7 19:10:24 CET 2007
51 - changed/implemented idle watcher priority.
52 - allow out-of-range priorities to be set.
53 - fix ->priority to actually work on started watchers.
54 - improved testsuite.
55
561.6 Wed Dec 5 15:06:20 CET 2007
57 - add a missing SPAGAIN.
58 - ripped out EV::DNS, use EV::ADNS for a better backend.
59 - make ev_time callable from EVAPI.h.
60 - add EV::loop_count.
61 - some space optimisations.
62
631.5 Wed Nov 28 20:19:09 CET 2007
64 - add inotify backend.
65 - make testsuite even less sensible to timing issues,
66 add more stat tests.
67 - add ->attr, ->prev, ->stat calls to stat watcher.
68
691.4 Tue Nov 27 17:35:27 CET 2007
70 - work around a linux 2.4 kernel bug in child handlers.
71 - implement stat watcher interface.
72 - implement fork watcher interface.
73 - io->set did not keep the fh alive.
74 - actively check signal numbers/names to be valid.
75 - cleanups, minor fixes, new bugs.
76 - work around windows bugs in the testsuite.
77
781.3 Sun Nov 25 10:46:57 CET 2007
79 - stopping idle/check/prepare watchers could cause data corruption.
80 - implement and document EV::once.
81 - improved documentation, verify that netbsd indeed has the only
82 working kqueue implementation (out of darwin, freebsd, netbsd and
83 openbsd). Praise them!
84 - fix the data method so it might work.
85 - expose ev_ref/ev_unref to the C API.
86 - expose ref/unref in form of the ->keepalive method to perl.
87 - minor bugfixes and portability fixes.
88
891.2 Thu Nov 22 05:44:09 CET 2007
90 - disable kqueue by default on !netbsd, as its broken on freebsd,
91 darwin and openbsd and thus almost everywhere.
92 - add some allowance in t/01_timer.t for the uneven monotonic
93 vs. realtime clock tick on at least freebsd.
94 - add -lsocket -lnsl on solaris in case the perl guy forgot to
95 configure them.
96
971.1 Wed Nov 21 06:08:48 CET 2007
98 - improved timer test to include periodics and
99 withstand small timing variations.
100 - many minor tweaks to libev.
