92.6 9 - work around perl overriding readdir etc. with thread-unsafe
10 versions (omg).

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

13 - perlio isn't generally threadsafe, so aio_close could not work reliably. 70 - perlio isn't generally threadsafe, so aio_close could not work reliably.
14 aio_close now tries a safe hack that might not be that asynchronous 71 aio_close now tries a safe hack that might not be that asynchronous
15 (see the manpage for details). 72 (see the manpage for details).
