45 - add MADV_FREE constant.
46 - add a bunch of (mostly linux-specific) constants for use in ioctls
47 (see aio_ioctl docs).
48 - treescan now has a proper manpage and useful --help output.
49 - new option --sync in treescan, to sync everything in a subtree.
50 - changed default for aio_msync flags to MSYNC_SYNC.
51 - document offset/length behaviour of mprotect/madvise.
52
534.34 Sun May 1 19:18:24 CEST 2016
54 - def0.h was not properly generated during previous release, causing
55 compile errors on various platforms.
56 - major/minor were accidentally switched (reported by Alexander Lishenyuk).
57 - removed duplicate definition of MAP_HUGETLB, that was found due to
58 a bug in Perl::Tidy (testcase by alaska332@gmail.com).
59 - added (untested!) aio_fcntl, aio_ioctl requests.
60 - (libeio) names set via prctl are truncated to 15 chars + nul, not 16,
61 as manpages-dev originally claimed.
62
634.33 Mon Jan 18 12:50:10 CET 2016
64 - add IO::AIO::pipe2 function.
65 - added support for FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE
66 constants.
67 - added support for O_TMPFILE and O_PATH constants.
68 - added support for MAP_FIXED, MAP_GROWSDOWN,MAP_32BIT, MAP_HUGETLB, MAP_STACK
69 consdtants, whether they can be sensibly used or not.
70 - use NO_INIT where applicable.
71 - update libecb.
72 - added stability canary support.
73 - updated linux super magic table to 4.3.3.
74
754.32 Wed Feb 11 20:32:11 CET 2015
76 - replace off_t by STRLEN where appropriate, should not result in
77 user-visible changes.
78 - update ecb.h for C11 compatibility.
79
804.31 Tue Jun 3 03:29:27 CEST 2014
81 - work around more 5.20 bugs. backwards compatibility my ass.
82
834.3 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
84 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
85 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
86 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
87 compatibility - I will never understand.
88
894.2 Sat Jan 25 01:13:14 CET 2014
90 - aio_group could corrupt memory because it didn't restore
91 the stack after req_submit.
92 - be more careful on (e.g. permission) errors in bin/treescan.
93 - work around changes in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
94 - (libeio) implement aio_realpath for win32.
95 - (xthread) work around compile time bugs in ptw32.
96 - added IO::AIO::pipesize.
97 - (libecb) insignificant update.
98
994.19 Sun Jan 6 12:47:26 CET 2013
100 - avoid endless loop in fiemap with some XFS files.
101 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."]
102 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat.
103
1044.18 Thu Oct 11 07:01:26 CEST 2012
105 - fix unintended xthread_create by intentionalising it :)
106
1074.17 Thu Oct 11 05:19:47 CEST 2012
108 - rename aio_fallocate to aio_allocate, to match documentation.
109 - add list of linux fsid values to aio_statvfs docs.
110 - work around a bug in btrfs' FIEMAP ioctl implementation.
111 - work around AIX bug: statvfs.f_fsid is a struct, not unsigned long
112 as per unix spec.
113
1144.16 Tue Aug 14 05:39:03 CEST 2012
115 - aio_statvfs was wromgly marked for wd emulation, causing
116 it to malfunction for paths.
117 - fix a crash in aio_fiemap, when used on ranges without any
118 extents.
119 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel might
120 trash fiemap input arguments.
121 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel does not
122 set FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST on last segment.
123 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel silently
124 truncates segment count if a file.
125 - make fh argument of IO::AIO::mmap optional, also add mmap/munmap
126 to quick overview.
127 - splice can corrupt data.
128 - (libeio) remove pread/pwrite emulation.
129 - do not grow mmaped scalars in aio_read.
130 - add FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE and document fallocate.
131 - provide pread/pwrite for win32, making it link again on native win32.
132
1334.15 Tue Apr 10 06:59:00 CEST 2012
134 - always include linux/types.h for fiemap, for compatibility to
135 ancient systems (Paul Howarth).
136 - experimental support for IO::AIO::splice and ::tee (no aio_...).
137 - provide SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA, if available.
138 - work around (again!) an immensely stupid bug in RHEL, defining
139 autoconf macros in linux system headers (analysed by Paul Howarth).
140
1414.14 Sat Apr 7 02:45:18 CEST 2012
142 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.

146 - autogenerate the #ifdef/#define 0 blocks for symbols we export.
147

149 - realpath would return a random value if the name was too long,
150 instead of -1.

157 - IO::AIO did access uninitialised memory on unsuccessful stats.
11 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper. 158 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
12 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb). 159 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
160 - (libeio) support multiple indepenent working directories.
13 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber. 161 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
162 - tune treescan #threads and #outstanding requests a bit.
163 - reduce the number of file descriptors in use at any one time
164 in treescan, to avoid running out of them (and using too much ram).
165 - take advantage of working directoriy abstractions
166 in aio_scandir and treescan.
167 - reduce compiled size by ~10% by not inlining some key functionality.
168 - added --progress switch to treescan.
