9 - move preadwritelock definition before it's first reference,
10 to make it compile again on broken platforms (they still exist).
11 rreported by Rob Bloodgood.
12
133.05 Thu Jun 19 23:23:52 CEST 2008
14 - work around perl overriding readdir etc. with thread-unsafe
15 (sic!) versions.
16
173.04 Wed Jun 18 01:35:38 CEST 2008
18 - (libeio) fix eio_mknod, which confused it's arguments.
19 - (libeio) do not use readdir_r, as Ulrich Drepper pointed out that this
20 is stupid.
21 - (libeio) fix eio__readahead prototype, patch by Jost Krieger.
22 - (libeio) fix a bug that could potentially cause IO::AIO
23 not to get initialised properly.
24
253.03 Thu May 29 05:33:30 CEST 2008
26 - (libeio) correctly call pthread_attr_destroy ().
27 - (libeio) work around broken bsd headers once more.
28 - reduce shared library size again by not including wrappers.
29 - max_outstanding could cause poll to enter a busy-waiting loop.
30 - document the new IO::AIO::poll_cb result value.
31
323.02 Mon May 12 02:32:02 CEST 2008
33 - fix a memory leak on aio_readlink.
34 - bring back working fchmod.
35 - nop and busy now set result to 0.
36 - set errno to ENOMEM when allocation fails.
37
383.01 Sun May 11 03:07:03 CEST 2008
39 - (libeio) make it compile on systems without readahead or readdir_r.
40 - (libeio) improve configure check for readahead availability.
41 - do not try to link against -lrt.
42 - use a separate configure script for IO::AIO (not the libeio one).
43
443.0 Sun May 11 00:57:14 CEST 2008
45 - added bin/treescan to the distribution.
46 - switched to using libeio.
47 - LOTS OF INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
48 - remove signal functionality, it is not worth the effort.
49 - max_outstanding no longer returns the previous number of requests.
50 - poll_cb no longer returns number of requests.
51
522.62 Sat Apr 26 13:59:33 CEST 2008
53 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
54 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
55 - keep a reference to the perl filehandle object in aio_close,
56 so it doesn't get closed prematurely, leading to ugly races.
57
582.61 Wed Apr 16 18:45:02 CEST 2008
59 - fix treescan output duplication and improve output ordering.
60 also display files given on the commandline.
61 - use a different algorithm for aio_close that is faster
62 and probably has even lower chances of blocking.
63 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
64 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
65 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
66 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
67 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
68
692.6 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
70 - added aio_sync.
71 - added aio_pathsync.
72 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.

10 - perlio isn't generally threadsafe, so aio_close could not work reliably. 75 - perlio isn't generally threadsafe, so aio_close could not work reliably.
11 aio_close now tries a safe hack that might not be that asynchronous 76 aio_close now tries a safe hack that might not be that asynchronous
