12 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.
13
144.12 Fri Dec 30 08:51:25 CET 2011
15 - realpath would return a random value if the name was too long,
16 instead of -1.
17 - port to c89.
18
194.11 Mon Oct 10 00:24:11 CEST 2011
20 - libeio didn't compile on !linux (Paul Howarth).
21
224.1 Sun Oct 9 10:24:11 CEST 2011
23 - IO::AIO did access uninitialised memory on unsuccessful stats.
24 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
25 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
26 - (libeio) support multiple indepenent working directories.
27 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
28 - tune treescan #threads and #outstanding requests a bit.
29 - reduce the number of file descriptors in use at any one time
30 in treescan, to avoid running out of them (and using too much ram).
31 - take advantage of working directoriy abstractions
32 in aio_scandir and treescan.
33 - reduce compiled size by ~10% by not inlining some key functionality.
34 - added --progress switch to treescan.
35
364.0 Mon Jul 18 05:01:10 CEST 2011
37 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: fork is no longer supported (indeed, it never was),
38 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details.
39 - passes testsuite on win32 now and may actually work
40 (activestate 5.10.1 / MSVC6, YMMV).
41 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
42 a timeout occured at the same time.
43 - (libeio) added realpath.
44 - (libeio) added fallocate.
45 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation.
46 - (libeio) do not acquire any locks when forking.
47 - (libeio) use fewer time() syscalls when waiting for new requests.
48
493.93 Wed Jun 29 23:44:18 CEST 2011
50 - ECB.H WAS MISSING.
51
523.92 Wed Jun 29 14:45:41 CEST 2011
53 - ecb.h was missing.
54
553.91 Wed Jun 29 13:24:42 CEST 2011
56 - (libeio) work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other
57 kernels) bug where sendfile would not transfer all the requested
58 bytes on large transfers, using a heuristic.
59 - buggy sendfile caused aio_move/copy to sometimes fail for big
60 files (fortunately it checks that the whole file has been
61 transferred...)
62 - use libecb for higher performance and higher portability.
63 - (libeio) disable sendfile on darwin, it's too broken.
64 - disable fork tests on !linux, as only linux supports mixing
65 pthread and fork in perl.
66 - document the fact that fork doesn't work anymore when using
67 this module, on anything !GNU/Linux.
68 - increase timeout in t/04_fork.t, as too many CPAN-tester setups
69 run on a 0.1MHz cpu. Or so.
70
713.9 Fri May 27 02:43:47 CEST 2011
72 - (libeio) fix memory corruption in aio_readdirx for the flags
73 combination READDIR_STAT_ORDER | READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
74 - add lots of newer POSIX and GNU/Linux-specific open
75 flags.

14 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique. 78 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
15 - support a max_idle value of 0. 79 - support a max_idle value of 0.
16 - support setting of idle timeout value (IO::AIO::idle_timeout). 80 - support setting of idle timeout value (IO::AIO::idle_timeout).
