23O_DIRECT 124.11 Mon Oct 10 00:24:11 CEST 2011
24O_LARGEFILE 13 - libeio didn't compile on !linux (Paul Howarth).
25O_NOATIME 14
26O_ASYNC 154.1 Sun Oct 9 10:24:11 CEST 2011
27TODO: document/test madvise, mprotect 16 - IO::AIO did access uninitialised memory on unsuccessful stats.
28TODO: aio_mlock/munlock, aio_mlockakk, munlockall 17 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
18 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
19 - (libeio) support multiple indepenent working directories.
20 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
21 - tune treescan #threads and #outstanding requests a bit.
22 - reduce the number of file descriptors in use at any one time
23 in treescan, to avoid running out of them (and using too much ram).
24 - take advantage of working directoriy abstractions
25 in aio_scandir and treescan.
26 - reduce compiled size by ~10% by not inlining some key functionality.
27 - added --progress switch to treescan.
28
294.0 Mon Jul 18 05:01:10 CEST 2011
30 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: fork is no longer supported (indeed, it never was),
31 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details.
32 - passes testsuite on win32 now and may actually work
33 (activestate 5.10.1 / MSVC6, YMMV).
34 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
35 a timeout occured at the same time.
36 - (libeio) added realpath.
37 - (libeio) added fallocate.
38 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation.
39 - (libeio) do not acquire any locks when forking.
40 - (libeio) use fewer time() syscalls when waiting for new requests.

423.93 Wed Jun 29 23:44:18 CEST 2011
43 - ECB.H WAS MISSING.
44
453.92 Wed Jun 29 14:45:41 CEST 2011
46 - ecb.h was missing.
47
483.91 Wed Jun 29 13:24:42 CEST 2011
49 - (libeio) work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other
50 kernels) bug where sendfile would not transfer all the requested
51 bytes on large transfers, using a heuristic.
52 - buggy sendfile caused aio_move/copy to sometimes fail for big
53 files (fortunately it checks that the whole file has been
54 transferred...)
55 - use libecb for higher performance and higher portability.
56 - (libeio) disable sendfile on darwin, it's too broken.
57 - disable fork tests on !linux, as only linux supports mixing
58 pthread and fork in perl.
59 - document the fact that fork doesn't work anymore when using
60 this module, on anything !GNU/Linux.
61 - increase timeout in t/04_fork.t, as too many CPAN-tester setups
62 run on a 0.1MHz cpu. Or so.
63
643.9 Fri May 27 02:43:47 CEST 2011
65 - (libeio) fix memory corruption in aio_readdirx for the flags
66 combination READDIR_STAT_ORDER | READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
67 - add lots of newer POSIX and GNU/Linux-specific open
68 flags.
69
703.8 Sun Mar 27 12:25:33 CEST 2011
71 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
72 - support a max_idle value of 0.
73 - support setting of idle timeout value (IO::AIO::idle_timeout).
74
753.72 Fri Feb 11 04:25:38 CET 2011
76 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE to detect mlock/munlock.
77 - aio_mknod always used a dev_t value of 0.
78 - new treescan option: --grep.
79 - add more S_IF macros, and major/minor/makedev "macros".
80
813.71 Thu Dec 30 08:18:46 CET 2010
82 - the numerical result value passed to callbacks did not stringify
83 correctly, due to internal reuse and failure to reset the sv flags.
84 - actually test for posix_[mf]advise, as at least uClibc defines
85 _POSIX_ADVISORY_INFO without actually having any of the required
86 funcitonality. ugh.
87
883.7 Mon Nov 1 23:00:34 CET 2010
89 - implement/add madvise, mmap, munmap, aio_mlockall, munlockall,
90 aio_mlock, munlock, msync and mtouch to @EXPORT_OK.
91 - document the sad state of affairs w.r.t. pthread on many bsds.
92 - do not enable mmap on systems without _POSIX_MAPPED_FILES
93 (openbsd 4.8).
29 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already 94 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already
30 had string-data. 95 had string-data.
31 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-documented 96 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-document
32 them. 97 them.
33 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case. 98 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case.
34 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect 99 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect
35 user-errors better. 100 user-errors better.
36 - fix aio_readlink prototype. 101 - fix aio_readlink prototype.
37 - add madvise, mmap, munmap, aio_mlockall, munlockall,
38 aio_mlock, munlock, msync and mtouch to @EXPORT_OK.

41 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not 104 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
42 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by 105 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
43 Rasmus Andersson). 106 Rasmus Andersson).
