9 13
14 - (libeio) added realpath.
15
163.93 Wed Jun 29 23:44:18 CEST 2011
17 - ECB.H WAS MISSING.
18
193.92 Wed Jun 29 14:45:41 CEST 2011
20 - ecb.h was missing.
21
223.91 Wed Jun 29 13:24:42 CEST 2011
23 - (libeio) work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other
24 kernels) bug where sendfile would not transfer all the requested
25 bytes on large transfers, using a heuristic.
26 - buggy sendfile caused aio_move/copy to sometimes fail for big
27 files (fortunately it checks that the whole file has been
28 transferred...)
29 - use libecb for higher performance and higher portability.
30 - (libeio) disable sendfile on darwin, it's too broken.
31 - disable fork tests on !linux, as only linux supports mixing
32 pthread and fork in perl.
33 - document the fact that fork doesn't work anymore when using
34 this module, on anything !GNU/Linux.
35 - increase timeout in t/04_fork.t, as too many CPAN-tester setups
36 run on a 0.1MHz cpu. Or so.
37
383.9 Fri May 27 02:43:47 CEST 2011
39 - (libeio) fix memory corruption in aio_readdirx for the flags
40 combination READDIR_STAT_ORDER | READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
41 - add lots of newre POSIX and GNU/Linux-specific open
42 flags.
43
443.8 Sun Mar 27 12:25:33 CEST 2011
45 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
46 - support a max_idle value of 0.
47 - support setting of idle timeout value (IO::AIO::idle_timeout).
48
493.72 Fri Feb 11 04:25:38 CET 2011
50 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE to detect mlock/munlock.
51 - aio_mknod always used a dev_t value of 0.
52 - new treescan option: --grep.
53 - add more S_IF macros, and major/minor/makedev "macros".
54
553.71 Thu Dec 30 08:18:46 CET 2010
56 - the numerical result value passed to callbacks did not stringify
57 correctly, due to internal reuse and failure to reset the sv flags.
58 - actually test for posix_[mf]advise, as at least uClibc defines
59 _POSIX_ADVISORY_INFO without actually having any of the required
60 funcitonality. ugh.
61
623.7 Mon Nov 1 23:00:34 CET 2010
63 - implement/add madvise, mmap, munmap, aio_mlockall, munlockall,
64 aio_mlock, munlock, msync and mtouch to @EXPORT_OK.
65 - document the sad state of affairs w.r.t. pthread on many bsds.
66 - do not enable mmap on systems without _POSIX_MAPPED_FILES
67 (openbsd 4.8).
68 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already
69 had string-data.
70 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-document
71 them.
72 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case.
73 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect
74 user-errors better.
75 - fix aio_readlink prototype.
76
773.65 Wed Mar 31 02:45:05 CEST 2010
78 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
79 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
80 Rasmus Andersson).
81 - a double fork partially killed the event pipe (great testcase
82 by dormando). affects IO::AIO, BDB and Async::Interrupt.
83 - suck steve's dick and rename our symbols to avoid colliding
84 with nonstandard identifier spam on the broken os x pseudo-os.
85 affects IO::AIO and BDB.
86
873.6 Mon Jan 11 00:43:39 CET 2010
88 - (libeio) more fixes for the freebsd/apple sendfile - broken by
89 manpage standards, but apparently correct accoridng to actual
90 kernel sources.
91 - add IO::AIO::mmap/munmap support.
92 - add IO::AIO::m(un)lockall support.
93 - clean up manpage.
94
953.5 Thu Jan 7 21:25:04 CET 2010
96 - (liebio) fix freebsd sendfile (Vanilla Hsu).
97 - (libeio) also fix darwin sendfile that suffered from a similar bug.
98 - add aio_statvfs as interface to statvfs/fstatvfs.
99 - work around buggy symlink() on cygwin in the testsuite.
100 - wtf. freebsd-8.0 actually passes the testsuite! I knew
101 they could implement fork and semaphores one day! cheers!
102
1033.4 Sat Jan 2 15:13:04 CET 2010
104 - (libeio) max_poll_time was not properly converted to ticks.
105 - clarify cancel_subs description.
106 - IO::AIO::sendfile did not actually return the return value
107 from the sendfile call.
108 - implement aio_msync, aio_mtouch.
109 - (libeio) tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
110
1113.31 Thu Nov 12 02:14:29 CET 2009
112 - fix result status documentation of aio_copy, aio_move.
113 - speed up object creation considerably by avoiding
114 hash lookups.
115
1163.3 Wed Aug 5 13:52:58 CEST 2009
117 - use common::sense.
118 - use common schmorp.h header.
119 - allow integers (file descriptors) in addition to file handles.
120 - take advantage of linux' eventfd (but it seems slower on smp?).
121 - use poll not select on posix platforms.
122
1233.261 Wed Jul 1 10:11:51 CEST 2009
124 - more 0S X workarounds (patch by Tokuhiro Matsuno).
125
1263.26 Tue Jun 30 09:33:26 CEST 2009
127 - 0S X of course claims to be posix 2008 but lacks posix_fadvise.
128 try to work around this horribly broken OS in a somewhat hackish
129 way. might help other os's too.
130
1313.25 Sat Jun 27 05:18:26 CEST 2009
132 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
10 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix 133 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix
11 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually 134 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually
12 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on 135 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on
13 degenerated (for quicksort) data. 136 degenerated (for quicksort) data.
14 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type 137 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type
15 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used. 138 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used.
16 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no 139 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no
17 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue. 140 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue.

19 but should not have been. 142 but should not have been.
20 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
21 - use more correct types (change IO length from IV to VAL64, 143 - use more correct types (change IO length from IV to VAL64,
22 which makes a difference on systems without 64 bit perls). 144 which makes a difference on systems without 64 bit perls).
