11TODO: MS_xxx, posix_fadvise
12 - (libeio) work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other
13 kernels) bug where sendfile would not transfer all the requested
14 bytes on large transfers, using a heuristic.
15
163.9 Fri May 27 02:43:47 CEST 2011
17 - (libeio) fix memory corruption in aio_readdirx for the flags
18 combination READDIR_STAT_ORDER | READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
19 - add lots of newre POSIX and GNU/Linux-specific open
20 flags.
21
223.8 Sun Mar 27 12:25:33 CEST 2011
23 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
24 - support a max_idle value of 0.
25 - support setting of idle timeout value (IO::AIO::idle_timeout).
26
273.72 Fri Feb 11 04:25:38 CET 2011
28 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE to detect mlock/munlock.
29 - aio_mknod always used a dev_t value of 0.
30 - new treescan option: --grep.
31 - add more S_IF macros, and major/minor/makedev "macros".
32
333.71 Thu Dec 30 08:18:46 CET 2010
34 - the numerical result value passed to callbacks did not stringify
35 correctly, due to internal reuse and failure to reset the sv flags.
36 - actually test for posix_[mf]advise, as at least uClibc defines
37 _POSIX_ADVISORY_INFO without actually having any of the required
38 funcitonality. ugh.
39
403.7 Mon Nov 1 23:00:34 CET 2010
41 - implement/add madvise, mmap, munmap, aio_mlockall, munlockall,
42 aio_mlock, munlock, msync and mtouch to @EXPORT_OK.
43 - document the sad state of affairs w.r.t. pthread on many bsds.
44 - do not enable mmap on systems without _POSIX_MAPPED_FILES
45 (openbsd 4.8).
46 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already
47 had string-data.
48 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-document
49 them.
50 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case.
51 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect
52 user-errors better.
53 - fix aio_readlink prototype.
54
553.65 Wed Mar 31 02:45:05 CEST 2010
56 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
57 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
58 Rasmus Andersson).
59 - a double fork partially killed the event pipe (great testcase
60 by dormando). affects IO::AIO, BDB and Async::Interrupt.
61 - suck steve's dick and rename our symbols to avoid colliding
62 with nonstandard identifier spam on the broken os x pseudo-os.
63 affects IO::AIO and BDB.
64
653.6 Mon Jan 11 00:43:39 CET 2010
66 - (libeio) more fixes for the freebsd/apple sendfile - broken by
67 manpage standards, but apparently correct accoridng to actual
68 kernel sources.
69 - add IO::AIO::mmap/munmap support.
70 - add IO::AIO::m(un)lockall support.
71 - clean up manpage.
72
733.5 Thu Jan 7 21:25:04 CET 2010
74 - (liebio) fix freebsd sendfile (Vanilla Hsu).
75 - (libeio) also fix darwin sendfile that suffered from a similar bug.
76 - add aio_statvfs as interface to statvfs/fstatvfs.
77 - work around buggy symlink() on cygwin in the testsuite.
78 - wtf. freebsd-8.0 actually passes the testsuite! I knew
79 they could implement fork and semaphores one day! cheers!
80
813.4 Sat Jan 2 15:13:04 CET 2010
82 - (libeio) max_poll_time was not properly converted to ticks.
83 - clarify cancel_subs description.
84 - IO::AIO::sendfile did not actually return the return value
85 from the sendfile call.
86 - implement aio_msync, aio_mtouch.
87 - (libeio) tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
88
893.31 Thu Nov 12 02:14:29 CET 2009
90 - fix result status documentation of aio_copy, aio_move.
91 - speed up object creation considerably by avoiding
92 hash lookups.
93
943.3 Wed Aug 5 13:52:58 CEST 2009
95 - use common::sense.
96 - use common schmorp.h header.
97 - allow integers (file descriptors) in addition to file handles.
98 - take advantage of linux' eventfd (but it seems slower on smp?).
99 - use poll not select on posix platforms.
100
1013.261 Wed Jul 1 10:11:51 CEST 2009
102 - more 0S X workarounds (patch by Tokuhiro Matsuno).
103
1043.26 Tue Jun 30 09:33:26 CEST 2009
105 - 0S X of course claims to be posix 2008 but lacks posix_fadvise.
106 try to work around this horribly broken OS in a somewhat hackish
107 way. might help other os's too.
108
1093.25 Sat Jun 27 05:18:26 CEST 2009
110 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
9 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix 111 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix
10 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually 112 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually
11 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on 113 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on
12 degenerated (for quicksort) data. 114 degenerated (for quicksort) data.
13 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type 115 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type
14 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used. 116 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used.
15 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no 117 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no
16 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue. 118 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue.
17 - removed a (harmless) assert that was left over on the code 119 - removed a (harmless) assert that was left over on the code
18 but should not have been. 120 but should not have been.
121 - use more correct types (change IO length from IV to VAL64,
122 which makes a difference on systems without 64 bit perls).

203.23 Sat Jun 13 16:57:58 CEST 2009 1243.23 Sat Jun 13 16:57:58 CEST 2009
