103.25 13 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE to detetc mlock/munlock.
14 - new treescan option: --grep.
15
163.71 Thu Dec 30 08:18:46 CET 2010
17 - the numerical result value passed to callbacks did not stringify
18 correctly, due to internal reuse and failure to reset the sv flags.
19 - actually test for posix_[mf]advise, as at least uClibc defines
20 _POSIX_ADVISORY_INFO without actually having any of the required
21 funcitonality. ugh.
22
233.7 Mon Nov 1 23:00:34 CET 2010
24 - implement/add madvise, mmap, munmap, aio_mlockall, munlockall,
25 aio_mlock, munlock, msync and mtouch to @EXPORT_OK.
26 - document the sad state of affairs w.r.t. pthread on many bsds.
27 - do not enable mmap on systems without _POSIX_MAPPED_FILES
28 (openbsd 4.8).
29 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already
30 had string-data.
31 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-document
32 them.
33 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case.
34 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect
35 user-errors better.
36 - fix aio_readlink prototype.
37
383.65 Wed Mar 31 02:45:05 CEST 2010
39 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not
40 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
41 Rasmus Andersson).
42 - a double fork partially killed the event pipe (great testcase
43 by dormando). affects IO::AIO, BDB and Async::Interrupt.
44 - suck steve's dick and rename our symbols to avoid colliding
45 with nonstandard identifier spam on the broken os x pseudo-os.
46 affects IO::AIO and BDB.
47
483.6 Mon Jan 11 00:43:39 CET 2010
49 - (libeio) more fixes for the freebsd/apple sendfile - broken by
50 manpage standards, but apparently correct accoridng to actual
51 kernel sources.
52 - add IO::AIO::mmap/munmap support.
53 - add IO::AIO::m(un)lockall support.
54 - clean up manpage.
55
563.5 Thu Jan 7 21:25:04 CET 2010
57 - (liebio) fix freebsd sendfile (Vanilla Hsu).
58 - (libeio) also fix darwin sendfile that suffered from a similar bug.
59 - add aio_statvfs as interface to statvfs/fstatvfs.
60 - work around buggy symlink() on cygwin in the testsuite.
61 - wtf. freebsd-8.0 actually passes the testsuite! I knew
62 they could implement fork and semaphores one day! cheers!
63
643.4 Sat Jan 2 15:13:04 CET 2010
65 - (libeio) max_poll_time was not properly converted to ticks.
66 - clarify cancel_subs description.
67 - IO::AIO::sendfile did not actually return the return value
68 from the sendfile call.
69 - implement aio_msync, aio_mtouch.
70 - (libeio) tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
71
723.31 Thu Nov 12 02:14:29 CET 2009
73 - fix result status documentation of aio_copy, aio_move.
74 - speed up object creation considerably by avoiding
75 hash lookups.
76
773.3 Wed Aug 5 13:52:58 CEST 2009
78 - use common::sense.
79 - use common schmorp.h header.
80 - allow integers (file descriptors) in addition to file handles.
81 - take advantage of linux' eventfd (but it seems slower on smp?).
82 - use poll not select on posix platforms.
83
843.261 Wed Jul 1 10:11:51 CEST 2009
85 - more 0S X workarounds (patch by Tokuhiro Matsuno).
86
873.26 Tue Jun 30 09:33:26 CEST 2009
88 - 0S X of course claims to be posix 2008 but lacks posix_fadvise.
89 try to work around this horribly broken OS in a somewhat hackish
90 way. might help other os's too.
91
923.25 Sat Jun 27 05:18:26 CEST 2009
11 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile. 93 - added IO::AIO::fadvise and IO::AIO::sendfile.
12 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix 94 - (libeio) replaced quicksort+insertion sort by a tuned radix
13 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually 95 sort + insertion sort, resulting in comparable runtime (usually
14 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on 96 faster) to the old version, but without any ill side effects on
15 degenerated (for quicksort) data. 97 degenerated (for quicksort) data.
