144.0
15 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: fork is no longer supported (indeed, it never was),
16 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details.
17 - passes testsuite on win32 now (activetstate 5.10.1, YMMV).
18 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
19 a timeout occured at the same time.
20 - (libeio) added realpath.
21 - (libeio) added fallocate.
22 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation.
23 - (libeio) do not acquire any locks when forking.
24 - (libeio) use fewer time() syscalls when waiting for new requests.
25
263.93 Wed Jun 29 23:44:18 CEST 2011
27 - ECB.H WAS MISSING.
28
293.92 Wed Jun 29 14:45:41 CEST 2011
30 - ecb.h was missing.
31
323.91 Wed Jun 29 13:24:42 CEST 2011
33 - (libeio) work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other
34 kernels) bug where sendfile would not transfer all the requested
35 bytes on large transfers, using a heuristic.
36 - buggy sendfile caused aio_move/copy to sometimes fail for big
37 files (fortunately it checks that the whole file has been
38 transferred...)
39 - use libecb for higher performance and higher portability.
40 - (libeio) disable sendfile on darwin, it's too broken.
41 - disable fork tests on !linux, as only linux supports mixing
42 pthread and fork in perl.
43 - document the fact that fork doesn't work anymore when using
44 this module, on anything !GNU/Linux.
45 - increase timeout in t/04_fork.t, as too many CPAN-tester setups
46 run on a 0.1MHz cpu. Or so.
47
483.9 Fri May 27 02:43:47 CEST 2011
49 - (libeio) fix memory corruption in aio_readdirx for the flags
50 combination READDIR_STAT_ORDER | READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
51 - add lots of newer POSIX and GNU/Linux-specific open
52 flags.
53
543.8 Sun Mar 27 12:25:33 CEST 2011
55 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
56 - support a max_idle value of 0.
57 - support setting of idle timeout value (IO::AIO::idle_timeout).
58
593.72 Fri Feb 11 04:25:38 CET 2011
60 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE to detect mlock/munlock.
61 - aio_mknod always used a dev_t value of 0.
62 - new treescan option: --grep.
63 - add more S_IF macros, and major/minor/makedev "macros".
64
653.71 Thu Dec 30 08:18:46 CET 2010
66 - the numerical result value passed to callbacks did not stringify
67 correctly, due to internal reuse and failure to reset the sv flags.
68 - actually test for posix_[mf]advise, as at least uClibc defines
69 _POSIX_ADVISORY_INFO without actually having any of the required
70 funcitonality. ugh.
71
723.7 Mon Nov 1 23:00:34 CET 2010
73 - implement/add madvise, mmap, munmap, aio_mlockall, munlockall,
74 aio_mlock, munlock, msync and mtouch to @EXPORT_OK.
75 - document the sad state of affairs w.r.t. pthread on many bsds.
76 - do not enable mmap on systems without _POSIX_MAPPED_FILES
77 (openbsd 4.8).
78 - do not leak memory in IO::AIO::mmap when the scalar already
79 had string-data.
12 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-documented 80 - add O_RDWR, O_APPEND and O_EXCL symbols and semi-document
13 them. 81 them.
82 - cache the result IV, for a minor speedup in the common case.
83 - croak when an mmapped-scalar changes location, to detect
84 user-errors better.
85 - fix aio_readlink prototype.
14 86
153.65 Wed Mar 31 02:45:05 CEST 2010 873.65 Wed Mar 31 02:45:05 CEST 2010
16 - actually use PATH_MAX instead of NAME_MAX for readlink, as to not 88 - 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 89 cut off long pathnames in aio_readlink (based on patch by
18 Rasmus Andersson). 90 Rasmus Andersson).
