27TODO: document/test madvise, mprotect
28TODO: aio_mlock/munlock, aio_mlockakk, munlockall
29 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already
30 had string-data.
31 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-documented
32 them.
33 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case.
34 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect
35 user-errors better.
36 - fix aio_readlink prototype.
37 - add madvise, mmap, munmap, aio_mlockall, munlockall,
38 aio_mlock, munlock, msync and mtouch to @EXPORT_OK.
39
403.65 Wed Mar 31 02:45:05 CEST 2010
41 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
42 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
43 Rasmus Andersson).
44 - a double fork partially killed the event pipe (great testcase
45 by dormando). affects IO::AIO, BDB and Async::Interrupt.
46 - suck steve's dick and rename our symbols to avoid colliding
47 with nonstandard identifier spam on the broken os x pseudo-os.
48 affects IO::AIO and BDB.
49
503.6 Mon Jan 11 00:43:39 CET 2010
51 - (libeio) more fixes for the freebsd/apple sendfile - broken by
52 manpage standards, but apparently correct accoridng to actual
53 kernel sources.
54 - add IO::AIO::mmap/munmap support.
55 - add IO::AIO::m(un)lockall support.
56 - clean up manpage.
57
583.5 Thu Jan 7 21:25:04 CET 2010
59 - (liebio) fix freebsd sendfile (Vanilla Hsu).
60 - (libeio) also fix darwin sendfile that suffered from a similar bug.
61 - add aio_statvfs as interface to statvfs/fstatvfs.
62 - work around buggy symlink() on cygwin in the testsuite.
63 - wtf. freebsd-8.0 actually passes the testsuite! I knew
64 they could implement fork and semaphores one day! cheers!
65
663.4 Sat Jan 2 15:13:04 CET 2010
67 - (libeio) max_poll_time was not properly converted to ticks.
68 - clarify cancel_subs description.
69 - IO::AIO::sendfile did not actually return the return value
70 from the sendfile call.
71 - implement aio_msync, aio_mtouch.
72 - (libeio) tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
73
743.31 Thu Nov 12 02:14:29 CET 2009
75 - fix result status documentation of aio_copy, aio_move.
76 - speed up object creation considerably by avoiding
77 hash lookups.
78
793.3 Wed Aug 5 13:52:58 CEST 2009
80 - use common::sense.
81 - use common schmorp.h header.
82 - allow integers (file descriptors) in addition to file handles.
83 - take advantage of linux' eventfd (but it seems slower on smp?).
84 - use poll not select on posix platforms.
85
863.261 Wed Jul 1 10:11:51 CEST 2009
87 - more 0S X workarounds (patch by Tokuhiro Matsuno).
88
893.26 Tue Jun 30 09:33:26 CEST 2009
90 - 0S X of course claims to be posix 2008 but lacks posix_fadvise.
91 try to work around this horribly broken OS in a somewhat hackish
92 way. might help other os's too.
93
943.25 Sat Jun 27 05:18:26 CEST 2009
95 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
96 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix
97 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually
98 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on
99 degenerated (for quicksort) data.
100 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type
101 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used.
102 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no
103 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue.
104 - removed a (harmless) assert that was left over on the code
105 but should not have been.
106 - use more correct types (change IO length from IV to VAL64,
107 which makes a difference on systems without 64 bit perls).
108
1093.23 Sat Jun 13 16:57:58 CEST 2009
110 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_readdir that was introduced in the
111 rushed 3.22 release.
112
1133.22 Sat Jun 13 15:32:40 CEST 2009
114 - speed up readdirx sort algorithm slightly.
115 - bin/treescan was missing from distro tarball.
116
1173.21 Fri Jun 12 18:45:53 CEST 2009
118 - new options --dirs and --files for treescan.
119 - install bin/treescan by default.
120 - (libeio) aio_readdir can now be cancelled while executing.
121 - fix a printf format string for 64 bit systems (could lead
122 to problems on big endian 64 bit systems).
123 - do not use qsort() but our own algorithm: glibc initialises
124 the whole locale and I/O subsystem inside qsort, causing
125 a stack overflow on 32 bit machines. The new sort uses much less
126 stack and is more than twice as fast in typical situations.
127
1283.2 Sun Jun 7 20:30:05 CEST 2009
129 - (libeio) pwrite emulation was even more flawed than intended and did
130 not restore the file offset.
131 - add aio_readdirx, which can return inode and filetype and sort
132 the names in various ways.
133 - unfortunately, utime, chmod, chown on an open file that has just
134 been written can easily block, which caused aio_copy to block the
135 process. no more!
136 - no longer rely on dst path in aio_copy when futime is available.
137
1383.19 Tue Apr 21 22:05:21 CEST 2009
139 - more perl 5.10 workarounds for aio_read and write.
140 - aio_write no longer modifies the sv (if possible).
141 - aio_read now works correctly with magic values.
142
1433.18 Sun Apr 19 21:17:32 CEST 2009
9 - better diagnostics when some aio_* functions get passed an illegal fh. 144 - better diagnostics when some aio_* functions get passed an illegal fh.
10 - try to avoid crash due to incompatible 5.10 API changes. 145 - try to avoid crashes due to incompatible 5.10 API changes. grmbl.

123.17 Thu Nov 20 08:45:36 CET 2008 1473.17 Thu Nov 20 08:45:36 CET 2008
13 - (libeio) added aio_sync_file_range (untested). 148 - (libeio) added aio_sync_file_range (untested).
14 - add aio_busy to @IO::AIO::AIO_REQ. 149 - add aio_busy to @IO::AIO::AIO_REQ.
