13
14 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
15 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
16 Rasmus Andersson).
17
183.6 Mon Jan 11 00:43:39 CET 2010
19 - (libeio) more fixes for the freebsd/apple sendfile - broken by
20 manpage standards, but apparently correct accoridng to actual
21 kernel sources.
22 - add IO::AIO::mmap/munmap support.
23 - add IO::AIO::m(un)lockall support.
24 - clean up manpage.
25
263.5 Thu Jan 7 21:25:04 CET 2010
27 - (liebio) fix freebsd sendfile (Vanilla Hsu).
28 - (libeio) also fix darwin sendfile that suffered from a similar bug.
29 - add aio_statvfs as interface to statvfs/fstatvfs.
30 - work around buggy symlink() on cygwin in the testsuite.
31 - wtf. freebsd-8.0 actually passes the testsuite! I knew
32 they could implement fork and semaphores one day! cheers!
33
343.4 Sat Jan 2 15:13:04 CET 2010
35 - (libeio) max_poll_time was not properly converted to ticks.
36 - clarify cancel_subs description.
37 - IO::AIO::sendfile did not actually return the return value
38 from the sendfile call.
39 - implement aio_msync, aio_mtouch.
40 - (libeio) tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
41
423.31 Thu Nov 12 02:14:29 CET 2009
43 - fix result status documentation of aio_copy, aio_move.
44 - speed up object creation considerably by avoiding
45 hash lookups.
46
473.3 Wed Aug 5 13:52:58 CEST 2009
48 - use common::sense.
49 - use common schmorp.h header.
50 - allow integers (file descriptors) in addition to file handles.
51 - take advantage of linux' eventfd (but it seems slower on smp?).
52 - use poll not select on posix platforms.
53
543.261 Wed Jul 1 10:11:51 CEST 2009
55 - more 0S X workarounds (patch by Tokuhiro Matsuno).
56
573.26 Tue Jun 30 09:33:26 CEST 2009
58 - 0S X of course claims to be posix 2008 but lacks posix_fadvise.
59 try to work around this horribly broken OS in a somewhat hackish
60 way. might help other os's too.
61
623.25 Sat Jun 27 05:18:26 CEST 2009
63 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
64 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix
65 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually
66 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on
67 degenerated (for quicksort) data.
68 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type
69 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used.
70 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no
71 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue.
72 - removed a (harmless) assert that was left over on the code
73 but should not have been.
74 - use more correct types (change IO length from IV to VAL64,
75 which makes a difference on systems without 64 bit perls).
76
773.23 Sat Jun 13 16:57:58 CEST 2009
78 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_readdir that was introduced in the
79 rushed 3.22 release.
80
813.22 Sat Jun 13 15:32:40 CEST 2009
82 - speed up readdirx sort algorithm slightly.
83 - bin/treescan was missing from distro tarball.
84
853.21 Fri Jun 12 18:45:53 CEST 2009
86 - new options --dirs and --files for treescan.
87 - install bin/treescan by default.
88 - (libeio) aio_readdir can now be cancelled while executing.
89 - fix a printf format string for 64 bit systems (could lead
90 to problems on big endian 64 bit systems).
91 - do not use qsort() but our own algorithm: glibc initialises
92 the whole locale and I/O subsystem inside qsort, causing
93 a stack overflow on 32 bit machines. The new sort uses much less
94 stack and is more than twice as fast in typical situations.
