93.2 12 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-documented
13 them.
14
153.65 Wed Mar 31 02:45:05 CEST 2010
16 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
17 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
18 Rasmus Andersson).
19 - a double fork partially killed the event pipe (great testcase
20 by dormando). affects IO::AIO, BDB and Async::Interrupt.
21 - suck steve's dick and rename our symbols to avoid colliding
22 with nonstandard identifier spam on the broken os x pseudo-os.
23 affects IO::AIO and BDB.
24
253.6 Mon Jan 11 00:43:39 CET 2010
26 - (libeio) more fixes for the freebsd/apple sendfile - broken by
27 manpage standards, but apparently correct accoridng to actual
28 kernel sources.
29 - add IO::AIO::mmap/munmap support.
30 - add IO::AIO::m(un)lockall support.
31 - clean up manpage.
32
333.5 Thu Jan 7 21:25:04 CET 2010
34 - (liebio) fix freebsd sendfile (Vanilla Hsu).
35 - (libeio) also fix darwin sendfile that suffered from a similar bug.
36 - add aio_statvfs as interface to statvfs/fstatvfs.
37 - work around buggy symlink() on cygwin in the testsuite.
38 - wtf. freebsd-8.0 actually passes the testsuite! I knew
39 they could implement fork and semaphores one day! cheers!
40
413.4 Sat Jan 2 15:13:04 CET 2010
42 - (libeio) max_poll_time was not properly converted to ticks.
43 - clarify cancel_subs description.
44 - IO::AIO::sendfile did not actually return the return value
45 from the sendfile call.
46 - implement aio_msync, aio_mtouch.
47 - (libeio) tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
48
493.31 Thu Nov 12 02:14:29 CET 2009
50 - fix result status documentation of aio_copy, aio_move.
51 - speed up object creation considerably by avoiding
52 hash lookups.
53
543.3 Wed Aug 5 13:52:58 CEST 2009
55 - use common::sense.
56 - use common schmorp.h header.
57 - allow integers (file descriptors) in addition to file handles.
58 - take advantage of linux' eventfd (but it seems slower on smp?).
59 - use poll not select on posix platforms.
60
613.261 Wed Jul 1 10:11:51 CEST 2009
62 - more 0S X workarounds (patch by Tokuhiro Matsuno).
63
643.26 Tue Jun 30 09:33:26 CEST 2009
65 - 0S X of course claims to be posix 2008 but lacks posix_fadvise.
66 try to work around this horribly broken OS in a somewhat hackish
67 way. might help other os's too.
68
693.25 Sat Jun 27 05:18:26 CEST 2009
70 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
71 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix
72 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually
73 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on
74 degenerated (for quicksort) data.
75 - (libeio) correctly sort dirs by inodes if we have perfect type
76 knowledge and DIRS_FIRST is used.
77 - (libeio) internally the wrong DT_* constants were used, but no
78 known system has differing EIO_DT_*/DT_* values, so not an issue.
79 - removed a (harmless) assert that was left over on the code
80 but should not have been.
81 - use more correct types (change IO length from IV to VAL64,
82 which makes a difference on systems without 64 bit perls).
83
843.23 Sat Jun 13 16:57:58 CEST 2009
85 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_readdir that was introduced in the
86 rushed 3.22 release.
87
883.22 Sat Jun 13 15:32:40 CEST 2009
89 - speed up readdirx sort algorithm slightly.
90 - bin/treescan was missing from distro tarball.
91
923.21 Fri Jun 12 18:45:53 CEST 2009
93 - new options --dirs and --files for treescan.
94 - install bin/treescan by default.
95 - (libeio) aio_readdir can now be cancelled while executing.
96 - fix a printf format string for 64 bit systems (could lead
97 to problems on big endian 64 bit systems).
98 - do not use qsort() but our own algorithm: glibc initialises
99 the whole locale and I/O subsystem inside qsort, causing
100 a stack overflow on 32 bit machines. The new sort uses much less
101 stack and is more than twice as fast in typical situations.

1033.2 Sun Jun 7 20:30:05 CEST 2009
