494.79 Sun 25 Sep 2022 18:25:53 CEST
50 - the autoconf result of the mount check was not used, so it failed to
51 compile on most systems (reported by crackoff@tutanota.com).
52 - work around fedora not having a working C compiler setup by design
53 (reported by Paul Howarth).
54
554.78 Tue 06 Sep 2022 12:54:43 CEST
56 - add IO::AIO::mount and IO::AIO::umount.
57 - add a bunch of symbols from sys/mount.h.
58
594.77 Mon 05 Sep 2022 02:03:38 CEST
60 - add MFD_HUGETLB_2MB and MFD_HUGETLB_1GB constants.
61 - add fexecve.
62 - add lots of missing functions to @EXPORT_OK.
63
644.76 Tue Jul 27 20:45:01 CEST 2021
65 - add autoconf test for siginfo_t, which is, of course, not
66 available on windows (reported by Peter Petky).
67 - disable syscalls on solaris, as perl seems to provide an
68 incompatible syscall prototype that clashes with sys/syscall.h.
69 - add MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE, MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, MAP_SYNC and
70 MAP_UNINITIALIZED.
71
724.75 Wed Dec 30 08:44:55 CET 2020
73 - removed leftover debug output from treescan.
74 - added (but not documented) waitid-P_*, FSPICK_*, FSOPEN_*,
75 FSCONFIG_*, MOUNT_ATTR_* constants.
76
774.74 Tue Dec 29 16:19:28 CET 2020
78 - added pidfd_open, pidfd_getfd and pidfd_send_signal functions.
79 - rework bin/treescan to avoid recursion. This fixes two bugs
80 where a deep directory traversal or a lot of command line
81 arguments could cause it to crash.
82 - added (but not documented) open_tree, AT_* and move_mount flags.
83 - support defining syscall numbers in gendef0.
84
854.73 Fri Dec 4 02:08:37 CET 2020
86 - def0.h was not uptodate, running into musl problems
87 (reported by B Fraser).
88 - IO::AIO::splice and IO::AIO::tee didn't properly return
89 64 bit values.
90 - added IO::AIO::accept4.
91 - add various F_SEAL related fcntl constants.
92 - removed experimental marker for fdlimit functions.
93 - fiemap now includes the last segment even if it overflows
94 the end offset, which is arguably the correct behaviour.
95
964.72 Wed Apr 3 04:56:03 CEST 2019
97 - (libeio) if fd 0 is available do not use it for aio_wd, as it
98 collides with IO::AIO::CWD.
99 - added IO::AIO::memfd_create.
100 - correctly include <sys/uio.h> in the vmsplice test.
101 - reduce codesize by ~7% on amd64 by declaring more functions
102 as noinline.
103 - documentation fixes and updates.
104 - experimental and undocumented preliminary support for synchronous statx.
105
1064.71 Sun Mar 10 13:09:26 CET 2019
107 - due to an error in the linux manpages, the configure tests
108 for readahead, sync_file_range, splice etc. failed. This has been fixed.
109
1104.7 Mon Mar 4 11:28:13 CET 2019
111 - majorly speed up scandir for the very special case of a non-POSIX
112 filesystem that nevertheless reports valid dt_type information.
113 The only known filesystem of this type is currently btrfs, which
114 didn't get it's act together to implement POSIX semantics in all
115 these years, and I am tired of waiting.
116 - add IO::AIO::MCL_ONFAULT for mlockall, add IO::AIO::mlockall.
117 - neither sys/mkdev.h nor sys/sysmacros.h were included, even when they
118 were detected by autoconf.
119
1204.6 Sat Aug 25 21:58:36 CEST 2018
121 - add st_btime, st_btimesec, st_btimensec and st_gen accessors,
122 mostly for bsds which expose birthtime and st_gen members (netbsd, freebsd
123 but only st_gen on openbsd because they compiled their perl without support
124 for birthtimes).
125 - fix madvise and munlock to properly support negative offsets.
126 - allocate fd for the aio_close at boot time, to guarantee it working
127 later, rather than calling abort when it fails. also avoids
128 close-on-exec race issues after module load.
129 - #undef utime on win32, maybe this helps some reports of utime hangs.
130 - minor doc improvements.
131 - minor configure cleanups.
132 - use $Config{perllibs} instead of libs for configure. might help people
133 who didn't install all perl dependencies (might break things as well).
134
1354.54 Tue Aug 14 13:54:48 CEST 2018
136 - include sys/mkdev.h or sys/sysmacros.h if available.
137 - further tweaks to configure invocation for systems requiring --rpath.
138 - no longer rely on custom paths on win32 platforms.
139 - try to work around buggy PAGESIZE macro on solaris.
140
1414.53 Tue Aug 14 11:27:50 CEST 2018
142 - add $Config{libs} to LIBS for configure, to work around systems
143 with broken library dependencies (... openbsd).
144
1454.52 Sun Aug 12 08:09:45 CEST 2018
146 - config.h.in was missing in distribution.
147
1484.51 Sun Aug 12 07:24:14 CEST 2018
149 - complete rework of the autoconf framework: IO::AIO now uses its own
150 config.h, separate from libeio, and tries to test the actual perl
151 environment, not the standard system environment.
152 - provide nanosecond-accracy stat time accessors for both perl and IO::AIO
153 stat functions.
154 - removed non-portable C++ syntax from eio.c.
155 - try to fix readdir tests on cygwin spuriously failing.
156
1574.5 Wed Aug 1 00:23:55 CEST 2018
158 - aio_mtouch touch all pages as requested, not just the first page in most cases.
159 - new function: IO::AIO::mremap, linux-specific mremap, with constants MREMAP_MAYMOVE
160 and MREMAP_FIXED.
161 - add O_ACCMODE.
162 - add (undocumented) MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC and SOCK_CLOEXEC constants.
163
1644.4 Tue Feb 20 07:54:12 CET 2018
165 - new aio_slurp request.
166 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::eventfd and timerfd* function.
167 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::get_fdlimit and IO::AIO::min_fdlimit.
168 - point out that aio_copy overwrites existing files.
169 - removed filesystem magic number table from aio_statvfs docs as
170 statvfs doesn't actually return this info at all (statfs does).
171 - add a bunch of (mostly linux-specific) constants for use in ioctls
172 (see aio_ioctl docs).
173 - treescan now has a proper manpage and useful --help output.
174 - new option --sync in treescan, to sync everything in a subtree.
175 - changed default for aio_msync flags to MSYNC_SYNC.
176 - document offset/length behaviour of mprotect/madvise.
177 - support linux's renameat2 (via aio_rename2).
178 - add aio_rename2, an aio_rename with flags.
179 - add F_DUPPFD_CLOEXEC, F_OFD_[SG]ETLKW? constants.
180 - add FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE, FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE.
181 - (libeio) use posix_close if available.
182 - (libeio) internal close() calls no longer disturb errno.
183 - add IO:AIO::FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE.
184 - update schmorp.h for removal of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
185 and better eventfd detection.
186
1874.34 Sun May 1 19:18:24 CEST 2016
188 - def0.h was not properly generated during previous release, causing
189 compile errors on various platforms.
190 - major/minor were accidentally switched (reported by Alexander Lishenyuk).
191 - removed duplicate definition of MAP_HUGETLB, that was found due to
192 a bug in Perl::Tidy (testcase by alaska332@gmail.com).
193 - added (untested!) aio_fcntl, aio_ioctl requests.
194 - (libeio) names set via prctl are truncated to 15 chars + nul, not 16,
195 as manpages-dev originally claimed.
196
1974.33 Mon Jan 18 12:50:10 CET 2016
198 - add IO::AIO::pipe2 function.
199 - added support for FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE
200 constants.
201 - added support for O_TMPFILE and O_PATH constants.
202 - added support for MAP_FIXED, MAP_GROWSDOWN,MAP_32BIT, MAP_HUGETLB, MAP_STACK
203 consdtants, whether they can be sensibly used or not.
204 - use NO_INIT where applicable.
205 - update libecb.
206 - added stability canary support.
207 - updated linux super magic table to 4.3.3.
208
2094.32 Wed Feb 11 20:32:11 CET 2015
210 - replace off_t by STRLEN where appropriate, should not result in
211 user-visible changes.
212 - update ecb.h for C11 compatibility.
213
2144.31 Tue Jun 3 03:29:27 CEST 2014
215 - work around more 5.20 bugs. backwards compatibility my ass.
216
2174.3 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
218 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
219 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
220 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
221 compatibility - I will never understand.
222
2234.2 Sat Jan 25 01:13:14 CET 2014
224 - aio_group could corrupt memory because it didn't restore
225 the stack after req_submit.
226 - be more careful on (e.g. permission) errors in bin/treescan.
227 - work around changes in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
228 - (libeio) implement aio_realpath for win32.
229 - (xthread) work around compile time bugs in ptw32.
230 - added IO::AIO::pipesize.
231 - (libecb) insignificant update.
232
2334.19 Sun Jan 6 12:47:26 CET 2013
234 - avoid endless loop in fiemap with some XFS files.
235 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."]
236 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat.
237
2384.18 Thu Oct 11 07:01:26 CEST 2012
239 - fix unintended xthread_create by intentionalising it :)
240
2414.17 Thu Oct 11 05:19:47 CEST 2012
242 - rename aio_fallocate to aio_allocate, to match documentation.
243 - add list of linux fsid values to aio_statvfs docs.
244 - work around a bug in btrfs' FIEMAP ioctl implementation.
245 - work around AIX bug: statvfs.f_fsid is a struct, not unsigned long
246 as per unix spec.
247
2484.16 Tue Aug 14 05:39:03 CEST 2012
249 - aio_statvfs was wromgly marked for wd emulation, causing
250 it to malfunction for paths.
251 - fix a crash in aio_fiemap, when used on ranges without any
252 extents.
253 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel might
254 trash fiemap input arguments.
255 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel does not
256 set FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST on last segment.
257 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel silently
258 truncates segment count if a file.
259 - make fh argument of IO::AIO::mmap optional, also add mmap/munmap
260 to quick overview.
261 - splice can corrupt data.
262 - (libeio) remove pread/pwrite emulation.
263 - do not grow mmaped scalars in aio_read.

266
2674.15 Tue Apr 10 06:59:00 CEST 2012
268 - always include linux/types.h for fiemap, for compatibility to
269 ancient systems (Paul Howarth).
270 - experimental support for IO::AIO::splice and ::tee (no aio_...).
271 - provide SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA, if available.
272 - work around (again!) an immensely stupid bug in RHEL, defining
273 autoconf macros in linux system headers (analysed by Paul Howarth).
274
2754.14 Sat Apr 7 02:45:18 CEST 2012
12 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results. 276 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.
