51
52 - added pidfd_open, pidfd_getfd and pidfd_send_signal functions.
53 - rework bin/treescan to avoid recursion. This fixes two bugs
54 where a deep directory traversal or a lot of command line
55 arguments could cause it to crash.
56 - added (but not documented) open_tree, AT_* and move_mount flags.
57 - support defining syscall numbers in gendef0.
58
594.73 Fri Dec 4 02:08:37 CET 2020
60 - def0.h was not uptodate, running into musl problems
61 (reported by B Fraser).
62 - IO::AIO::splice and IO::AIO::tee didn't properly return
63 64 bit values.
64 - added IO::AIO::accept4.
65 - add various F_SEAL related fcntl constants.
66 - removed experimental marker for fdlimit functions.
67 - fiemap now includes the last segment even if it overflows
68 the end offset, which is arguably the correct behaviour.
69
704.72 Wed Apr 3 04:56:03 CEST 2019
71 - (libeio) if fd 0 is available do not use it for aio_wd, as it
72 collides with IO::AIO::CWD.
73 - added IO::AIO::memfd_create.
74 - correctly include <sys/uio.h> in the vmsplice test.
75 - reduce codesize by ~7% on amd64 by declaring more functions
76 as noinline.
77 - documentation fixes and updates.
78 - experimental and undocumented preliminary support for synchronous statx.
79
804.71 Sun Mar 10 13:09:26 CET 2019
81 - due to an error in the linux manpages, the configure tests
82 for readahead, sync_file_range, splice etc. failed. This has been fixed.
83
844.7 Mon Mar 4 11:28:13 CET 2019
85 - majorly speed up scandir for the very special case of a non-POSIX
86 filesystem that nevertheless reports valid dt_type information.
87 The only known filesystem of this type is currently btrfs, which
88 didn't get it's act together to implement POSIX semantics in all
89 these years, and I am tired of waiting.
90 - add IO::AIO::MCL_ONFAULT for mlockall, add IO::AIO::mlockall.
91 - neither sys/mkdev.h nor sys/sysmacros.h were included, even when they
92 were detected by autoconf.
93
944.6 Sat Aug 25 21:58:36 CEST 2018
95 - add st_btime, st_btimesec, st_btimensec and st_gen accessors,
96 mostly for bsds which expose birthtime and st_gen members (netbsd, freebsd
97 but only st_gen on openbsd because they compiled their perl without support
98 for birthtimes).
99 - fix madvise and munlock to properly support negative offsets.
100 - allocate fd for the aio_close at boot time, to guarantee it working
101 later, rather than calling abort when it fails. also avoids
102 close-on-exec race issues after module load.
103 - #undef utime on win32, maybe this helps some reports of utime hangs.
104 - minor doc improvements.
105 - minor configure cleanups.
106 - use $Config{perllibs} instead of libs for configure. might help people
107 who didn't install all perl dependencies (might break things as well).
108
1094.54 Tue Aug 14 13:54:48 CEST 2018
110 - include sys/mkdev.h or sys/sysmacros.h if available.
111 - further tweaks to configure invocation for systems requiring --rpath.
112 - no longer rely on custom paths on win32 platforms.
113 - try to work around buggy PAGESIZE macro on solaris.
114
1154.53 Tue Aug 14 11:27:50 CEST 2018
116 - add $Config{libs} to LIBS for configure, to work around systems
117 with broken library dependencies (... openbsd).
118
1194.52 Sun Aug 12 08:09:45 CEST 2018
120 - config.h.in was missing in distribution.
121
1224.51 Sun Aug 12 07:24:14 CEST 2018
123 - complete rework of the autoconf framework: IO::AIO now uses its own
124 config.h, separate from libeio, and tries to test the actual perl
125 environment, not the standard system environment.
126 - provide nanosecond-accracy stat time accessors for both perl and IO::AIO
127 stat functions.
128 - removed non-portable C++ syntax from eio.c.
129 - try to fix readdir tests on cygwin spuriously failing.
130
1314.5 Wed Aug 1 00:23:55 CEST 2018
132 - aio_mtouch touch all pages as requested, not just the first page in most cases.
133 - new function: IO::AIO::mremap, linux-specific mremap, with constants MREMAP_MAYMOVE
134 and MREMAP_FIXED.
135 - add O_ACCMODE.
136 - add (undocumented) MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC and SOCK_CLOEXEC constants.
137
1384.4 Tue Feb 20 07:54:12 CET 2018
139 - new aio_slurp request.
140 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::eventfd and timerfd* function.
141 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::get_fdlimit and IO::AIO::min_fdlimit.
142 - point out that aio_copy overwrites existing files.
143 - removed filesystem magic number table from aio_statvfs docs as
144 statvfs doesn't actually return this info at all (statfs does).
145 - add a bunch of (mostly linux-specific) constants for use in ioctls
146 (see aio_ioctl docs).
147 - treescan now has a proper manpage and useful --help output.
148 - new option --sync in treescan, to sync everything in a subtree.
149 - changed default for aio_msync flags to MSYNC_SYNC.
150 - document offset/length behaviour of mprotect/madvise.
151 - support linux's renameat2 (via aio_rename2).
152 - add aio_rename2, an aio_rename with flags.
153 - add F_DUPPFD_CLOEXEC, F_OFD_[SG]ETLKW? constants.
154 - add FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE, FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE.
155 - (libeio) use posix_close if available.
156 - (libeio) internal close() calls no longer disturb errno.
157 - add IO:AIO::FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE.
158 - update schmorp.h for removal of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
159 and better eventfd detection.
160
1614.34 Sun May 1 19:18:24 CEST 2016
162 - def0.h was not properly generated during previous release, causing
163 compile errors on various platforms.
164 - major/minor were accidentally switched (reported by Alexander Lishenyuk).
165 - removed duplicate definition of MAP_HUGETLB, that was found due to
166 a bug in Perl::Tidy (testcase by alaska332@gmail.com).
167 - added (untested!) aio_fcntl, aio_ioctl requests.
168 - (libeio) names set via prctl are truncated to 15 chars + nul, not 16,
169 as manpages-dev originally claimed.
170
1714.33 Mon Jan 18 12:50:10 CET 2016
172 - add IO::AIO::pipe2 function.
173 - added support for FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE
174 constants.
175 - added support for O_TMPFILE and O_PATH constants.
176 - added support for MAP_FIXED, MAP_GROWSDOWN,MAP_32BIT, MAP_HUGETLB, MAP_STACK
177 consdtants, whether they can be sensibly used or not.
178 - use NO_INIT where applicable.
179 - update libecb.
180 - added stability canary support.
181 - updated linux super magic table to 4.3.3.
182
1834.32 Wed Feb 11 20:32:11 CET 2015
184 - replace off_t by STRLEN where appropriate, should not result in
185 user-visible changes.
186 - update ecb.h for C11 compatibility.
187
1884.31 Tue Jun 3 03:29:27 CEST 2014
189 - work around more 5.20 bugs. backwards compatibility my ass.
190
1914.3 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
192 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
193 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
194 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
195 compatibility - I will never understand.
196
1974.2 Sat Jan 25 01:13:14 CET 2014
198 - aio_group could corrupt memory because it didn't restore
199 the stack after req_submit.
200 - be more careful on (e.g. permission) errors in bin/treescan.
201 - work around changes in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
202 - (libeio) implement aio_realpath for win32.
203 - (xthread) work around compile time bugs in ptw32.
204 - added IO::AIO::pipesize.
205 - (libecb) insignificant update.
206
2074.19 Sun Jan 6 12:47:26 CET 2013
208 - avoid endless loop in fiemap with some XFS files.
209 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."]
210 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat.
211
2124.18 Thu Oct 11 07:01:26 CEST 2012
213 - fix unintended xthread_create by intentionalising it :)
214
2154.17 Thu Oct 11 05:19:47 CEST 2012
216 - rename aio_fallocate to aio_allocate, to match documentation.
217 - add list of linux fsid values to aio_statvfs docs.
218 - work around a bug in btrfs' FIEMAP ioctl implementation.
219 - work around AIX bug: statvfs.f_fsid is a struct, not unsigned long
220 as per unix spec.
221
2224.16 Tue Aug 14 05:39:03 CEST 2012
223 - aio_statvfs was wromgly marked for wd emulation, causing
224 it to malfunction for paths.
225 - fix a crash in aio_fiemap, when used on ranges without any
226 extents.
227 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel might
228 trash fiemap input arguments.
229 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel does not
230 set FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST on last segment.
231 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel silently
232 truncates segment count if a file.
233 - make fh argument of IO::AIO::mmap optional, also add mmap/munmap
234 to quick overview.
235 - splice can corrupt data.
236 - (libeio) remove pread/pwrite emulation.
237 - do not grow mmaped scalars in aio_read.
238 - add FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE and document fallocate.

240
2414.15 Tue Apr 10 06:59:00 CEST 2012
242 - always include linux/types.h for fiemap, for compatibility to
243 ancient systems (Paul Howarth).
244 - experimental support for IO::AIO::splice and ::tee (no aio_...).
245 - provide SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA, if available.
246 - work around (again!) an immensely stupid bug in RHEL, defining
247 autoconf macros in linux system headers (analysed by Paul Howarth).
248
2494.14 Sat Apr 7 02:45:18 CEST 2012
250 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.
251 - (libeio) make readahead emulation behave more like actual readahead by never failing.
252 - new request aio_seek.
253 - new request aio_fiemap.
254 - autogenerate the #ifdef/#define 0 blocks for symbols we export.
255
2564.12 Fri Dec 30 08:51:25 CET 2011
257 - realpath would return a random value if the name was too long,
258 instead of -1.
259 - port to c89.
260
2614.11 Mon Oct 10 00:24:11 CEST 2011
262 - libeio didn't compile on !linux (Paul Howarth).
263
2644.1 Sun Oct 9 10:24:11 CEST 2011
265 - IO::AIO did access uninitialised memory on unsuccessful stats.
266 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
267 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
268 - (libeio) support multiple indepenent working directories.
269 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
270 - tune treescan #threads and #outstanding requests a bit.
271 - reduce the number of file descriptors in use at any one time
272 in treescan, to avoid running out of them (and using too much ram).
273 - take advantage of working directoriy abstractions
274 in aio_scandir and treescan.
275 - reduce compiled size by ~10% by not inlining some key functionality.
276 - added --progress switch to treescan.
277
2784.0 Mon Jul 18 05:01:10 CEST 2011
279 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: fork is no longer supported (indeed, it never was),
280 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details.
281 - passes testsuite on win32 now and may actually work
282 (activestate 5.10.1 / MSVC6, YMMV).
283 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
284 a timeout occured at the same time.
285 - (libeio) added realpath.
286 - (libeio) added fallocate.
287 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation.
288 - (libeio) do not acquire any locks when forking.
289 - (libeio) use fewer time() syscalls when waiting for new requests.
290
2913.93 Wed Jun 29 23:44:18 CEST 2011
292 - ECB.H WAS MISSING.
293
2943.92 Wed Jun 29 14:45:41 CEST 2011
295 - ecb.h was missing.
296
2973.91 Wed Jun 29 13:24:42 CEST 2011
298 - (libeio) work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other
299 kernels) bug where sendfile would not transfer all the requested
300 bytes on large transfers, using a heuristic.
301 - buggy sendfile caused aio_move/copy to sometimes fail for big
302 files (fortunately it checks that the whole file has been
303 transferred...)
304 - use libecb for higher performance and higher portability.
305 - (libeio) disable sendfile on darwin, it's too broken.
306 - disable fork tests on !linux, as only linux supports mixing
307 pthread and fork in perl.
308 - document the fact that fork doesn't work anymore when using
309 this module, on anything !GNU/Linux.
310 - increase timeout in t/04_fork.t, as too many CPAN-tester setups
311 run on a 0.1MHz cpu. Or so.
312
3133.9 Fri May 27 02:43:47 CEST 2011
314 - (libeio) fix memory corruption in aio_readdirx for the flags
315 combination READDIR_STAT_ORDER | READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
316 - add lots of newer POSIX and GNU/Linux-specific open
317 flags.
318
3193.8 Sun Mar 27 12:25:33 CEST 2011
320 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
321 - support a max_idle value of 0.
322 - support setting of idle timeout value (IO::AIO::idle_timeout).
323
3243.72 Fri Feb 11 04:25:38 CET 2011
325 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE to detect mlock/munlock.
326 - aio_mknod always used a dev_t value of 0.
327 - new treescan option: --grep.
328 - add more S_IF macros, and major/minor/makedev "macros".
329
3303.71 Thu Dec 30 08:18:46 CET 2010
331 - the numerical result value passed to callbacks did not stringify
332 correctly, due to internal reuse and failure to reset the sv flags.
333 - actually test for posix_[mf]advise, as at least uClibc defines
334 _POSIX_ADVISORY_INFO without actually having any of the required
335 funcitonality. ugh.
336
3373.7 Mon Nov 1 23:00:34 CET 2010
338 - implement/add madvise, mmap, munmap, aio_mlockall, munlockall,
339 aio_mlock, munlock, msync and mtouch to @EXPORT_OK.
340 - document the sad state of affairs w.r.t. pthread on many bsds.
341 - do not enable mmap on systems without _POSIX_MAPPED_FILES
342 (openbsd 4.8).
343 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already
344 had string-data.
345 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-document
346 them.
347 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case.
348 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect
349 user-errors better.
350 - fix aio_readlink prototype.
351
3523.65 Wed Mar 31 02:45:05 CEST 2010
353 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
354 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
355 Rasmus Andersson).
356 - a double fork partially killed the event pipe (great testcase
357 by dormando). affects IO::AIO, BDB and Async::Interrupt.
358 - suck steve's dick and rename our symbols to avoid colliding
359 with nonstandard identifier spam on the broken os x pseudo-os.
360 affects IO::AIO and BDB.
361
3623.6 Mon Jan 11 00:43:39 CET 2010
363 - (libeio) more fixes for the freebsd/apple sendfile - broken by
364 manpage standards, but apparently correct accoridng to actual
365 kernel sources.
366 - add IO::AIO::mmap/munmap support.
367 - add IO::AIO::m(un)lockall support.
368 - clean up manpage.
369
3703.5 Thu Jan 7 21:25:04 CET 2010
371 - (liebio) fix freebsd sendfile (Vanilla Hsu).
372 - (libeio) also fix darwin sendfile that suffered from a similar bug.
373 - add aio_statvfs as interface to statvfs/fstatvfs.
374 - work around buggy symlink() on cygwin in the testsuite.
375 - wtf. freebsd-8.0 actually passes the testsuite! I knew
376 they could implement fork and semaphores one day! cheers!
377
3783.4 Sat Jan 2 15:13:04 CET 2010
379 - (libeio) max_poll_time was not properly converted to ticks.
380 - clarify cancel_subs description.
381 - IO::AIO::sendfile did not actually return the return value
382 from the sendfile call.
383 - implement aio_msync, aio_mtouch.
384 - (libeio) tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
385
3863.31 Thu Nov 12 02:14:29 CET 2009
387 - fix result status documentation of aio_copy, aio_move.
388 - speed up object creation considerably by avoiding
389 hash lookups.
390
3913.3 Wed Aug 5 13:52:58 CEST 2009
392 - use common::sense.
393 - use common schmorp.h header.
394 - allow integers (file descriptors) in addition to file handles.
395 - take advantage of linux' eventfd (but it seems slower on smp?).
396 - use poll not select on posix platforms.
397
3983.261 Wed Jul 1 10:11:51 CEST 2009
399 - more 0S X workarounds (patch by Tokuhiro Matsuno).
400
4013.26 Tue Jun 30 09:33:26 CEST 2009
402 - 0S X of course claims to be posix 2008 but lacks posix_fadvise.
403 try to work around this horribly broken OS in a somewhat hackish
404 way. might help other os's too.
405
4063.25 Sat Jun 27 05:18:26 CEST 2009
407 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
408 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix
409 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually
410 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on
411 degenerated (for quicksort) data.
412 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type
413 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used.
414 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no
415 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue.
416 - removed a (harmless) assert that was left over on the code
417 but should not have been.
418 - use more correct types (change IO length from IV to VAL64,
419 which makes a difference on systems without 64 bit perls).
420
4213.23 Sat Jun 13 16:57:58 CEST 2009
422 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_readdir that was introduced in the
423 rushed 3.22 release.
424
4253.22 Sat Jun 13 15:32:40 CEST 2009
426 - speed up readdirx sort algorithm slightly.
427 - bin/treescan was missing from distro tarball.
428
4293.21 Fri Jun 12 18:45:53 CEST 2009
430 - new options --dirs and --files for treescan.
431 - install bin/treescan by default.
432 - (libeio) aio_readdir can now be cancelled while executing.
433 - fix a printf format string for 64 bit systems (could lead
434 to problems on big endian 64 bit systems).
435 - do not use qsort() but our own algorithm: glibc initialises
436 the whole locale and I/O subsystem inside qsort, causing
437 a stack overflow on 32 bit machines. The new sort uses much less
438 stack and is more than twice as fast in typical situations.
439
4403.2 Sun Jun 7 20:30:05 CEST 2009
441 - (libeio) pwrite emulation was even more flawed than intended and did
442 not restore the file offset.
443 - add aio_readdirx, which can return inode and filetype and sort
444 the names in various ways.
445 - unfortunately, utime, chmod, chown on an open file that has just
446 been written can easily block, which caused aio_copy to block the
447 process. no more!
448 - no longer rely on dst path in aio_copy when futime is available.
449
4503.19 Tue Apr 21 22:05:21 CEST 2009
451 - more perl 5.10 workarounds for aio_read and write.
452 - aio_write no longer modifies the sv (if possible).
453 - aio_read now works correctly with magic values.
454
4553.18 Sun Apr 19 21:17:32 CEST 2009
456 - better diagnostics when some aio_* functions get passed an illegal fh.
457 - try to avoid crashes due to incompatible 5.10 API changes. grmbl.
458
4593.17 Thu Nov 20 08:45:36 CET 2008
460 - (libeio) added aio_sync_file_range (untested).
461 - add aio_busy to @IO::AIO::AIO_REQ.
462
4633.16 Wed Oct 22 18:28:01 CEST 2008
464 - use SvREFCNT_inc instead of SvREFCNT_inc_NN in a non-speed critical
465 part to improve portability to perl 5.8 (reported by szymon).
466
4673.15 Mon Oct 13 00:39:55 CEST 2008
468 - automatic removal of feeders was broken.
469 - (libeio) use a more robust method to detect whether a feeder
470 has added something to the group or not.
471
4723.1 Thu Oct 2 13:34:40 CEST 2008
473 - pre-deref the passed callback object, for increased speed
474 and decreased memory usage.
475 - call on_next_submit callback even for aio_group - impact unknown,
476 but seems more correct.
477 - $req->cb now returns the original callback.
478 - (libeio) pass EIO_GROUP/aio_group requests through the queue without
479 requiring a thread switch.
480 - (libeio) status code of aio_futime and aio_utime was always passed 0.
481 - do some other ยต-optimisations.
482
4833.07 Sat Aug 2 16:06:13 CEST 2008
484 - do not include LIBS in autoconf tests.
485
4863.06 Tue Jul 15 12:41:32 CEST 2008
487 - move preadwritelock definition before it's first reference,
488 to make it compile again on broken platforms (they still exist)
489 or badly cofngiured perls (redhat...), reported by Rob Bloodgood.
490
4913.05 Thu Jun 19 23:23:52 CEST 2008
492 - work around perl overriding readdir etc. with thread-unsafe
493 (sic!) versions.
494
4953.04 Wed Jun 18 01:35:38 CEST 2008
496 - (libeio) fix eio_mknod, which confused it's arguments.
497 - (libeio) do not use readdir_r, as Ulrich Drepper pointed out that this
498 is stupid.
499 - (libeio) fix eio__readahead prototype, patch by Jost Krieger.
500 - (libeio) fix a bug that could potentially cause IO::AIO
501 not to get initialised properly.
502
5033.03 Thu May 29 05:33:30 CEST 2008
504 - (libeio) correctly call pthread_attr_destroy ().
505 - (libeio) work around broken bsd headers once more.
506 - reduce shared library size again by not including wrappers.
507 - max_outstanding could cause poll to enter a busy-waiting loop.
508 - document the new IO::AIO::poll_cb result value.
509
5103.02 Mon May 12 02:32:02 CEST 2008
511 - fix a memory leak on aio_readlink.
512 - bring back working fchmod.
513 - nop and busy now set result to 0.
514 - set errno to ENOMEM when allocation fails.
515
5163.01 Sun May 11 03:07:03 CEST 2008
517 - (libeio) make it compile on systems without readahead or readdir_r.
518 - (libeio) improve configure check for readahead availability.
519 - do not try to link against -lrt.
520 - use a separate configure script for IO::AIO (not the libeio one).
521
5223.0 Sun May 11 00:57:14 CEST 2008
523 - added bin/treescan to the distribution.
524 - switched to using libeio.
525 - LOTS OF INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
526 - remove signal functionality, it is not worth the effort.
527 - max_outstanding no longer returns the previous number of requests.
528 - poll_cb no longer returns number of requests.

10 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix 531 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
11 (analysed by Jost Krieger). 532 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
12 - keep a reference to the perl filehandle object in aio_close, 533 - keep a reference to the perl filehandle object in aio_close,
