6 - AIX isn't being helpful again, hardcode a value for NAME_MAX 10 - fix aio_busy w.r.t. fractional delays.
11 - add aio_chmod, aio_chown, aio_utime (linux successfully demonstrated
12 that you can block on futimes...).
13 - allow undef as fileoffset for aio_read/write and use read/write(2)
14 internally (useful for sockets or O_APPEND handles).
15 - allow undef for length in aio_write.
16 - negative dataoffsets work as expected now in aio_read/aio_write.
17 - use NV instead of UV for 32 bit perls and file offsets, as NVs
18 have a larger range then.
19 - shared code between BDB and IO::AIO.
20 - correctly set errno to ENOSYS on unimplemented functions
21 (should never happen, though).
22
232.33 Tue Jan 23 23:55:41 CET 2007
24 - fix install path (Andreas J. Koenig).
25
262.32 Mon Jan 22 16:56:23 CET 2007
27 - added aio_rmtree.
28 - wow, aio_mkdir was missing.
29 - aio_load did return undef on error, not -1.
30 - use prefixexp not prefix in autoconf.pm
31 (suggested by ... rt.cpan.org unreachable).
32 - avoid installing autoconf.pm.
33
342.31 Sat Jan 6 03:46:02 CET 2007
35 - added aio_load.
36
372.3 Sat Dec 23 05:48:07 CET 2006
38 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_read, causing memory corruption
39 or crashes.
40
412.21 Fri Dec 22 05:03:38 CET 2006
42 - minor doc updates.
43 - minor cleanups.
44 - IO::AIO::poll returns request count.
45 - undocumented and unfinished async-signal-reporting.
46
472.2 Tue Oct 31 00:31:00 CET 2006
48 - minor doc updates.
49 - added aio_readlink.
50 - properly zero-terminate aio_read buffer.
51 - fix aio_read/write with nonzero dataoffset.
52 - reduced size of aio request structure.
53 - better diagnostics when pathnames etc. are not byte-encoded;
54 do not leak request in that case, either.
55
562.1 Sun Oct 29 02:01:57 CET 2006
57 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace IO::AIO::poll_some by
58 IO::AIO::max_poll_reqs and IO::AIO::max_poll_time.
59 - fix a bug in aio_move where it would fail everytime
60 it would have to copy files manually.
61 - doc updates.
62 - start threads only on (very low) demand.
63 - end superfluous threads automatically after 10s idling.
64 - add IO::AIO::max_idle to control this.
65 - some tuning applied to random places.
66 - add aio_mknod.
67
682.0 Thu Oct 26 18:27:58 CEST 2006
69 - minor incompatibility: max_outstanding semantics have changed.
70 - major rewrite, consider all functionality EXPERIMENTAL.
71 - aio requests can be cancelled.
72 - callbacks can be (re-)set later.
73 - aio requests can choose between 9 priorities.
74 - add aio_group: aio requests can be grouped
75 into composite requests.
76 - generator interface for groups.
77 - add IO::AIO::poll_some.
78 - major documentation improvements.
79 - very minor bugfixes.
80 - add aio_nop for dummy requests.
81 - add aio_busy mainly for benchmarking and debugging.
82 - use "fast" mutexes on linux.
83 - use dynamic (and larger) buffers instead of
84 putting them onto the stack.
85 - optimise x86 and amd64 a bit.
86 - better error checking when ENOMEM.
87 - hopefully fix mem and dirp leaks on fork.
88 - warn about broken perl malloc.
89 - compiles on cygwin (but pread is broken on cygwin
90 which is not detected by autoconf, so you have to
91 edit autoconf/config.h yourself to enable emulation).
92
931.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
94 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.

961.73 Wed Mar 1 22:49:32 CET 2006
97 - codename "jost"
98 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
7 and drive with your eyes closed (reported by wcooley@nakedape.cc). 99 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
100 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
