144.0 13 - fix a crash in aio_fiemap, when used on ranges without any
14 extents.
15 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel might
16 trash fiemap input arguments.
17 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel does not
18 set FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST on last segment.
19 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel silently
20 truncates segment count if a file.
21 - make fh argument of IO::AIO::mmap optional, also add mmap/munmap
22 to quick overview.
23 - splice can corrupt data.
24 - (libeio) remove pread/pwrite emulation.
25 - do not grow mmaped scalars in aio_read.
26 - add FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE and document fallocate.
27
284.15 Tue Apr 10 06:59:00 CEST 2012
29 - always include linux/types.h for fiemap, for compatibility to
30 ancient systems (Paul Howarth).
31 - experimental support for IO::AIO::splice and ::tee (no aio_...).
32 - provide SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA, if available.
33 - work around (again!) an immensely stupid bug in RHEL, defining
34 autoconf macros in linux system headers (analysed by Paul Howarth).
35
364.14 Sat Apr 7 02:45:18 CEST 2012
37 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.
38 - (libeio) make readahead emulation behave more like actual readahead by never failing.
39 - new request aio_seek.
40 - new request aio_fiemap.
41 - autogenerate the #ifdef/#define 0 blocks for symbols we export.
42
434.12 Fri Dec 30 08:51:25 CET 2011
44 - realpath would return a random value if the name was too long,
45 instead of -1.
46 - port to c89.

484.11 Mon Oct 10 00:24:11 CEST 2011
49 - libeio didn't compile on !linux (Paul Howarth).
50
514.1 Sun Oct 9 10:24:11 CEST 2011
52 - IO::AIO did access uninitialised memory on unsuccessful stats.
53 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
54 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
55 - (libeio) support multiple indepenent working directories.
56 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
57 - tune treescan #threads and #outstanding requests a bit.
58 - reduce the number of file descriptors in use at any one time
59 in treescan, to avoid running out of them (and using too much ram).
60 - take advantage of working directoriy abstractions
61 in aio_scandir and treescan.
62 - reduce compiled size by ~10% by not inlining some key functionality.
63 - added --progress switch to treescan.

17 - passes testsuite on win32 now (activetstate 5.10.1, YMMV). 68 - passes testsuite on win32 now and may actually work
69 (activestate 5.10.1 / MSVC6, YMMV).
18 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when 70 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
19 a timeout occured at the same time. 71 a timeout occured at the same time.
20 - (libeio) added realpath. 72 - (libeio) added realpath.
21 - (libeio) added fallocate. 73 - (libeio) added fallocate.
22 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation. 74 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation.
