13 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
14 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
15 Rasmus Andersson).
16 - a double fork partially killed the event pipe (great testcase
17 by dormando). affects IO::AIO, BDB and Async::Interrupt.
18 - suck steve's dick and rename our symbols to avoid colliding
19 with nonstandard identifier spam on the broken os x pseudo-os.
20 affects IO::AIO and BDB.

223.6 Mon Jan 11 00:43:39 CET 2010
23 - (libeio) more fixes for the freebsd/apple sendfile - broken by
24 manpage standards, but apparently correct accoridng to actual
25 kernel sources.
26 - add IO::AIO::mmap/munmap support.
27 - add IO::AIO::m(un)lockall support.
28 - clean up manpage.
29
303.5 Thu Jan 7 21:25:04 CET 2010
31 - (liebio) fix freebsd sendfile (Vanilla Hsu).
32 - (libeio) also fix darwin sendfile that suffered from a similar bug.
33 - add aio_statvfs as interface to statvfs/fstatvfs.
34 - work around buggy symlink() on cygwin in the testsuite.
35 - wtf. freebsd-8.0 actually passes the testsuite! I knew
36 they could implement fork and semaphores one day! cheers!
37
383.4 Sat Jan 2 15:13:04 CET 2010
39 - (libeio) max_poll_time was not properly converted to ticks.
40 - clarify cancel_subs description.
41 - IO::AIO::sendfile did not actually return the return value
42 from the sendfile call.
43 - implement aio_msync, aio_mtouch.
44 - (libeio) tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
45
463.31 Thu Nov 12 02:14:29 CET 2009
47 - fix result status documentation of aio_copy, aio_move.
48 - speed up object creation considerably by avoiding
49 hash lookups.
50
513.3 Wed Aug 5 13:52:58 CEST 2009
52 - use common::sense.
53 - use common schmorp.h header.
54 - allow integers (file descriptors) in addition to file handles.
55 - take advantage of linux' eventfd (but it seems slower on smp?).
56 - use poll not select on posix platforms.
57
583.261 Wed Jul 1 10:11:51 CEST 2009
59 - more 0S X workarounds (patch by Tokuhiro Matsuno).
60
613.26 Tue Jun 30 09:33:26 CEST 2009
62 - 0S X of course claims to be posix 2008 but lacks posix_fadvise.
63 try to work around this horribly broken OS in a somewhat hackish
64 way. might help other os's too.
65
663.25 Sat Jun 27 05:18:26 CEST 2009
67 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
68 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix
69 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually
70 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on
71 degenerated (for quicksort) data.
72 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type
73 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used.
74 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no
75 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue.
76 - removed a (harmless) assert that was left over on the code
77 but should not have been.
78 - use more correct types (change IO length from IV to VAL64,
79 which makes a difference on systems without 64 bit perls).
80
813.23 Sat Jun 13 16:57:58 CEST 2009
82 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_readdir that was introduced in the
83 rushed 3.22 release.
84
853.22 Sat Jun 13 15:32:40 CEST 2009
86 - speed up readdirx sort algorithm slightly.
87 - bin/treescan was missing from distro tarball.
88
893.21 Fri Jun 12 18:45:53 CEST 2009
9 - new options --dirs and --files for treescan. 90 - new options --dirs and --files for treescan.
10 - install bin/treescan by default. 91 - install bin/treescan by default.
11 - (libeio) aio_readdir can now be cancelled while executing. 92 - (libeio) aio_readdir can now be cancelled while executing.
93 - fix a printf format string for 64 bit systems (could lead
94 to problems on big endian 64 bit systems).
95 - do not use qsort() but our own algorithm: glibc initialises
96 the whole locale and I/O subsystem inside qsort, causing
97 a stack overflow on 32 bit machines. The new sort uses much less
98 stack and is more than twice as fast in typical situations.
