10 - more OS X workarounds (patch by Tokuhiro Matsuno).
11
123.26 Tue Jun 30 09:33:26 CEST 2009
13 - os x of course claims posix 2008 but lacks posix_fadvise. try to work
14 around this horribly broken OS in a somewhat hackish way. might help
15 other os's too.
16
173.25 Sat Jun 27 05:18:26 CEST 2009
18 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
19 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix
20 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually
21 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on
22 degenerated (for quicksort) data.
23 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type
24 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used.
25 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no
26 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue.
27 - removed a (harmless) assert that was left over on the code
28 but should not have been.
29 - use more correct types (change IO length from IV to VAL64,
30 which makes a difference on systems without 64 bit perls).
31
323.23 Sat Jun 13 16:57:58 CEST 2009
33 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_readdir that was introduced in the
34 rushed 3.22 release.
35
363.22 Sat Jun 13 15:32:40 CEST 2009
37 - speed up readdirx sort algorithm slightly.
38 - bin/treescan was missing from distro tarball.
39
403.21 Fri Jun 12 18:45:53 CEST 2009
41 - new options --dirs and --files for treescan.
42 - install bin/treescan by default.
43 - (libeio) aio_readdir can now be cancelled while executing.
44 - fix a printf format string for 64 bit systems (could lead
45 to problems on big endian 64 bit systems).
46 - do not use qsort() but our own algorithm: glibc initialises
47 the whole locale and I/O subsystem inside qsort, causing
48 a stack overflow on 32 bit machines. The new sort uses much less
49 stack and is more than twice as fast in typical situations.
50
513.2 Sun Jun 7 20:30:05 CEST 2009
52 - (libeio) pwrite emulation was even more flawed than intended and did
53 not restore the file offset.
54 - add aio_readdirx, which can return inode and filetype and sort
55 the names in various ways.
56 - unfortunately, utime, chmod, chown on an open file that has just
57 been written can easily block, which caused aio_copy to block the
58 process. no more!
59 - no longer rely on dst path in aio_copy when futime is available.
60
613.19 Tue Apr 21 22:05:21 CEST 2009
62 - more perl 5.10 workarounds for aio_read and write.
63 - aio_write no longer modifies the sv (if possible).
64 - aio_read now works correctly with magic values.
65
663.18 Sun Apr 19 21:17:32 CEST 2009
67 - better diagnostics when some aio_* functions get passed an illegal fh.
68 - try to avoid crashes due to incompatible 5.10 API changes. grmbl.
69
703.17 Thu Nov 20 08:45:36 CET 2008
71 - (libeio) added aio_sync_file_range (untested).
72 - add aio_busy to @IO::AIO::AIO_REQ.
73
743.16 Wed Oct 22 18:28:01 CEST 2008
75 - use SvREFCNT_inc instead of SvREFCNT_inc_NN in a non-speed critical
76 part to improve portability to perl 5.8 (reported by szymon).
