25 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already
26 had string-data.
27 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-documented
28 them.
29 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case.
30 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect
31 user-errors better.
32
333.65 Wed Mar 31 02:45:05 CEST 2010
34 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
35 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
36 Rasmus Andersson).
37 - a double fork partially killed the event pipe (great testcase
38 by dormando). affects IO::AIO, BDB and Async::Interrupt.
39 - suck steve's dick and rename our symbols to avoid colliding
40 with nonstandard identifier spam on the broken os x pseudo-os.
41 affects IO::AIO and BDB.
42
433.6 Mon Jan 11 00:43:39 CET 2010
44 - (libeio) more fixes for the freebsd/apple sendfile - broken by
45 manpage standards, but apparently correct accoridng to actual
46 kernel sources.
47 - add IO::AIO::mmap/munmap support.
48 - add IO::AIO::m(un)lockall support.
49 - clean up manpage.
50
513.5 Thu Jan 7 21:25:04 CET 2010
52 - (liebio) fix freebsd sendfile (Vanilla Hsu).
53 - (libeio) also fix darwin sendfile that suffered from a similar bug.
54 - add aio_statvfs as interface to statvfs/fstatvfs.
55 - work around buggy symlink() on cygwin in the testsuite.
56 - wtf. freebsd-8.0 actually passes the testsuite! I knew
57 they could implement fork and semaphores one day! cheers!
58
593.4 Sat Jan 2 15:13:04 CET 2010
60 - (libeio) max_poll_time was not properly converted to ticks.
61 - clarify cancel_subs description.
62 - IO::AIO::sendfile did not actually return the return value
63 from the sendfile call.
64 - implement aio_msync, aio_mtouch.
65 - (libeio) tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
66
673.31 Thu Nov 12 02:14:29 CET 2009
68 - fix result status documentation of aio_copy, aio_move.
69 - speed up object creation considerably by avoiding
70 hash lookups.
71
723.3 Wed Aug 5 13:52:58 CEST 2009
73 - use common::sense.
74 - use common schmorp.h header.
75 - allow integers (file descriptors) in addition to file handles.
76 - take advantage of linux' eventfd (but it seems slower on smp?).
77 - use poll not select on posix platforms.
78
793.261 Wed Jul 1 10:11:51 CEST 2009
80 - more 0S X workarounds (patch by Tokuhiro Matsuno).
81
823.26 Tue Jun 30 09:33:26 CEST 2009
83 - 0S X of course claims to be posix 2008 but lacks posix_fadvise.
84 try to work around this horribly broken OS in a somewhat hackish
85 way. might help other os's too.
86
873.25 Sat Jun 27 05:18:26 CEST 2009
88 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
89 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix
90 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually
91 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on
92 degenerated (for quicksort) data.
93 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type
94 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used.
95 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no
96 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue.
97 - removed a (harmless) assert that was left over on the code
98 but should not have been.
99 - use more correct types (change IO length from IV to VAL64,
100 which makes a difference on systems without 64 bit perls).
101
1023.23 Sat Jun 13 16:57:58 CEST 2009
103 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_readdir that was introduced in the
104 rushed 3.22 release.
105
1063.22 Sat Jun 13 15:32:40 CEST 2009
107 - speed up readdirx sort algorithm slightly.
108 - bin/treescan was missing from distro tarball.
109
1103.21 Fri Jun 12 18:45:53 CEST 2009
9 - new options --dirs and --files for treescan. 111 - new options --dirs and --files for treescan.
10 - install bin/treescan by default. 112 - install bin/treescan by default.
113 - (libeio) aio_readdir can now be cancelled while executing.
114 - fix a printf format string for 64 bit systems (could lead
115 to problems on big endian 64 bit systems).
116 - do not use qsort() but our own algorithm: glibc initialises
117 the whole locale and I/O subsystem inside qsort, causing
118 a stack overflow on 32 bit machines. The new sort uses much less
119 stack and is more than twice as fast in typical situations.
