11 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
12 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
13 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
14
154.0 Mon Jul 18 05:01:10 CEST 2011
16 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: fork is no longer supported (indeed, it never was),
17 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details.
18 - passes testsuite on win32 now and may actually work
19 (activestate 5.10.1 / MSVC6, YMMV).
20 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
21 a timeout occured at the same time.
22 - (libeio) added realpath.
23 - (libeio) added fallocate.
24 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation.
25 - (libeio) do not acquire any locks when forking.
26 - (libeio) use fewer time() syscalls when waiting for new requests.

283.93 Wed Jun 29 23:44:18 CEST 2011
29 - ECB.H WAS MISSING.
30
313.92 Wed Jun 29 14:45:41 CEST 2011
32 - ecb.h was missing.
33
343.91 Wed Jun 29 13:24:42 CEST 2011
35 - (libeio) work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other
36 kernels) bug where sendfile would not transfer all the requested
37 bytes on large transfers, using a heuristic.
38 - buggy sendfile caused aio_move/copy to sometimes fail for big
39 files (fortunately it checks that the whole file has been
40 transferred...)
41 - use libecb for higher performance and higher portability.
42 - (libeio) disable sendfile on darwin, it's too broken.
43 - disable fork tests on !linux, as only linux supports mixing
44 pthread and fork in perl.
45 - document the fact that fork doesn't work anymore when using
46 this module, on anything !GNU/Linux.
47 - increase timeout in t/04_fork.t, as too many CPAN-tester setups
48 run on a 0.1MHz cpu. Or so.
49
503.9 Fri May 27 02:43:47 CEST 2011
51 - (libeio) fix memory corruption in aio_readdirx for the flags
52 combination READDIR_STAT_ORDER | READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
53 - add lots of newer POSIX and GNU/Linux-specific open
54 flags.
55
563.8 Sun Mar 27 12:25:33 CEST 2011
57 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
58 - support a max_idle value of 0.
59 - support setting of idle timeout value (IO::AIO::idle_timeout).
60
613.72 Fri Feb 11 04:25:38 CET 2011
62 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE to detect mlock/munlock.
63 - aio_mknod always used a dev_t value of 0.
64 - new treescan option: --grep.
65 - add more S_IF macros, and major/minor/makedev "macros".
66
673.71 Thu Dec 30 08:18:46 CET 2010
68 - the numerical result value passed to callbacks did not stringify
69 correctly, due to internal reuse and failure to reset the sv flags.
70 - actually test for posix_[mf]advise, as at least uClibc defines
71 _POSIX_ADVISORY_INFO without actually having any of the required
72 funcitonality. ugh.
73
743.7 Mon Nov 1 23:00:34 CET 2010
75 - implement/add madvise, mmap, munmap, aio_mlockall, munlockall,
76 aio_mlock, munlock, msync and mtouch to @EXPORT_OK.
77 - document the sad state of affairs w.r.t. pthread on many bsds.
78 - do not enable mmap on systems without _POSIX_MAPPED_FILES
79 (openbsd 4.8).
24 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already 80 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already
25 had string-data. 81 had string-data.
26 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-documented 82 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-document
27 them. 83 them.
28 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case. 84 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case.
29 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect 85 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect
30 user-errors better. 86 user-errors better.
87 - fix aio_readlink prototype.

33 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not 90 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
34 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by 91 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
35 Rasmus Andersson). 92 Rasmus Andersson).
