12 12
13 - new request aio_seek.
14 - new request aio_fiemap.
15 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.
16 - (libeio) make readahead emulation behave more like actual readahead by never failing.
17 - autogenerate the #ifdef/#define 0 blocks for symbols we export.
18
194.12 Fri Dec 30 08:51:25 CET 2011
20 - realpath would return a random value if the name was too long,
21 instead of -1.
22 - port to c89.
23
244.11 Mon Oct 10 00:24:11 CEST 2011
25 - libeio didn't compile on !linux (Paul Howarth).
26
274.1 Sun Oct 9 10:24:11 CEST 2011
28 - IO::AIO did access uninitialised memory on unsuccessful stats.
29 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
30 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
31 - (libeio) support multiple indepenent working directories.
32 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
33 - tune treescan #threads and #outstanding requests a bit.
34 - reduce the number of file descriptors in use at any one time
35 in treescan, to avoid running out of them (and using too much ram).
36 - take advantage of working directoriy abstractions
37 in aio_scandir and treescan.
38 - reduce compiled size by ~10% by not inlining some key functionality.
39 - added --progress switch to treescan.
40
414.0 Mon Jul 18 05:01:10 CEST 2011
42 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: fork is no longer supported (indeed, it never was),
43 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details.
44 - passes testsuite on win32 now and may actually work
45 (activestate 5.10.1 / MSVC6, YMMV).
46 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
47 a timeout occured at the same time.
48 - (libeio) added realpath.
49 - (libeio) added fallocate.
50 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation.
51 - (libeio) do not acquire any locks when forking.
52 - (libeio) use fewer time() syscalls when waiting for new requests.
53
543.93 Wed Jun 29 23:44:18 CEST 2011
55 - ECB.H WAS MISSING.
56
573.92 Wed Jun 29 14:45:41 CEST 2011
58 - ecb.h was missing.
59
603.91 Wed Jun 29 13:24:42 CEST 2011
61 - (libeio) work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other
62 kernels) bug where sendfile would not transfer all the requested
63 bytes on large transfers, using a heuristic.
64 - buggy sendfile caused aio_move/copy to sometimes fail for big
65 files (fortunately it checks that the whole file has been
66 transferred...)
67 - use libecb for higher performance and higher portability.
68 - (libeio) disable sendfile on darwin, it's too broken.
69 - disable fork tests on !linux, as only linux supports mixing
70 pthread and fork in perl.
71 - document the fact that fork doesn't work anymore when using
72 this module, on anything !GNU/Linux.
73 - increase timeout in t/04_fork.t, as too many CPAN-tester setups
74 run on a 0.1MHz cpu. Or so.
75
763.9 Fri May 27 02:43:47 CEST 2011
77 - (libeio) fix memory corruption in aio_readdirx for the flags
78 combination READDIR_STAT_ORDER | READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
79 - add lots of newer POSIX and GNU/Linux-specific open
80 flags.
81
823.8 Sun Mar 27 12:25:33 CEST 2011
83 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
84 - support a max_idle value of 0.
85 - support setting of idle timeout value (IO::AIO::idle_timeout).
86
873.72 Fri Feb 11 04:25:38 CET 2011
13 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE to detetc mlock/munlock. 88 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE to detect mlock/munlock.
89 - aio_mknod always used a dev_t value of 0.
14 - new treescan option: --grep. 90 - new treescan option: --grep.
91 - add more S_IF macros, and major/minor/makedev "macros".

17 - the numerical result value passed to callbacks did not stringify 94 - the numerical result value passed to callbacks did not stringify
18 correctly, due to internal reuse and failure to reset the sv flags. 95 correctly, due to internal reuse and failure to reset the sv flags.
19 - actually test for posix_[mf]advise, as at least uClibc defines 96 - actually test for posix_[mf]advise, as at least uClibc defines
