11 48
49 - another workaround for the low-quality musl libc.
50 - test for umount seperately, as it is more portable.
51
524.79 Sun 25 Sep 2022 18:25:53 CEST
53 - the autoconf result of the mount check was not used, so it failed to
54 compile on most systems (reported by crackoff@tutanota.com).
55 - work around fedora not having a working C compiler setup by design
56 (reported by Paul Howarth).
57
584.78 Tue 06 Sep 2022 12:54:43 CEST
59 - add IO::AIO::mount and IO::AIO::umount.
60 - add a bunch of symbols from sys/mount.h.
61
624.77 Mon 05 Sep 2022 02:03:38 CEST
63 - add MFD_HUGETLB_2MB and MFD_HUGETLB_1GB constants.
64 - add fexecve.
65 - add lots of missing functions to @EXPORT_OK.
66
674.76 Tue Jul 27 20:45:01 CEST 2021
68 - add autoconf test for siginfo_t, which is, of course, not
69 available on windows (reported by Peter Petky).
70 - disable syscalls on solaris, as perl seems to provide an
71 incompatible syscall prototype that clashes with sys/syscall.h.
72 - add MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE, MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, MAP_SYNC and
73 MAP_UNINITIALIZED.
74
754.75 Wed Dec 30 08:44:55 CET 2020
76 - removed leftover debug output from treescan.
77 - added (but not documented) waitid-P_*, FSPICK_*, FSOPEN_*,
78 FSCONFIG_*, MOUNT_ATTR_* constants.
79
804.74 Tue Dec 29 16:19:28 CET 2020
81 - added pidfd_open, pidfd_getfd and pidfd_send_signal functions.
82 - rework bin/treescan to avoid recursion. This fixes two bugs
83 where a deep directory traversal or a lot of command line
84 arguments could cause it to crash.
85 - added (but not documented) open_tree, AT_* and move_mount flags.
86 - support defining syscall numbers in gendef0.
87
884.73 Fri Dec 4 02:08:37 CET 2020
89 - def0.h was not uptodate, running into musl problems
90 (reported by B Fraser).
91 - IO::AIO::splice and IO::AIO::tee didn't properly return
92 64 bit values.
93 - added IO::AIO::accept4.
94 - add various F_SEAL related fcntl constants.
95 - removed experimental marker for fdlimit functions.
96 - fiemap now includes the last segment even if it overflows
97 the end offset, which is arguably the correct behaviour.
98
994.72 Wed Apr 3 04:56:03 CEST 2019
100 - (libeio) if fd 0 is available do not use it for aio_wd, as it
101 collides with IO::AIO::CWD.
102 - added IO::AIO::memfd_create.
103 - correctly include <sys/uio.h> in the vmsplice test.
104 - reduce codesize by ~7% on amd64 by declaring more functions
105 as noinline.
106 - documentation fixes and updates.
107 - experimental and undocumented preliminary support for synchronous statx.
108
1094.71 Sun Mar 10 13:09:26 CET 2019
110 - due to an error in the linux manpages, the configure tests
111 for readahead, sync_file_range, splice etc. failed. This has been fixed.
112
1134.7 Mon Mar 4 11:28:13 CET 2019
114 - majorly speed up scandir for the very special case of a non-POSIX
115 filesystem that nevertheless reports valid dt_type information.
116 The only known filesystem of this type is currently btrfs, which
117 didn't get it's act together to implement POSIX semantics in all
118 these years, and I am tired of waiting.
119 - add IO::AIO::MCL_ONFAULT for mlockall, add IO::AIO::mlockall.
120 - neither sys/mkdev.h nor sys/sysmacros.h were included, even when they
121 were detected by autoconf.
122
1234.6 Sat Aug 25 21:58:36 CEST 2018
124 - add st_btime, st_btimesec, st_btimensec and st_gen accessors,
125 mostly for bsds which expose birthtime and st_gen members (netbsd, freebsd
126 but only st_gen on openbsd because they compiled their perl without support
127 for birthtimes).
128 - fix madvise and munlock to properly support negative offsets.
129 - allocate fd for the aio_close at boot time, to guarantee it working
130 later, rather than calling abort when it fails. also avoids
131 close-on-exec race issues after module load.
132 - #undef utime on win32, maybe this helps some reports of utime hangs.
133 - minor doc improvements.
134 - minor configure cleanups.
135 - use $Config{perllibs} instead of libs for configure. might help people
136 who didn't install all perl dependencies (might break things as well).
137
1384.54 Tue Aug 14 13:54:48 CEST 2018
139 - include sys/mkdev.h or sys/sysmacros.h if available.
140 - further tweaks to configure invocation for systems requiring --rpath.
141 - no longer rely on custom paths on win32 platforms.
142 - try to work around buggy PAGESIZE macro on solaris.
143
1444.53 Tue Aug 14 11:27:50 CEST 2018
145 - add $Config{libs} to LIBS for configure, to work around systems
146 with broken library dependencies (... openbsd).
147
1484.52 Sun Aug 12 08:09:45 CEST 2018
149 - config.h.in was missing in distribution.
150
1514.51 Sun Aug 12 07:24:14 CEST 2018
152 - complete rework of the autoconf framework: IO::AIO now uses its own
153 config.h, separate from libeio, and tries to test the actual perl
154 environment, not the standard system environment.
155 - provide nanosecond-accracy stat time accessors for both perl and IO::AIO
156 stat functions.
157 - removed non-portable C++ syntax from eio.c.
158 - try to fix readdir tests on cygwin spuriously failing.
159
1604.5 Wed Aug 1 00:23:55 CEST 2018
161 - aio_mtouch touch all pages as requested, not just the first page in most cases.
162 - new function: IO::AIO::mremap, linux-specific mremap, with constants MREMAP_MAYMOVE
163 and MREMAP_FIXED.
164 - add O_ACCMODE.
165 - add (undocumented) MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC and SOCK_CLOEXEC constants.
166
1674.4 Tue Feb 20 07:54:12 CET 2018
168 - new aio_slurp request.
169 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::eventfd and timerfd* function.
170 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::get_fdlimit and IO::AIO::min_fdlimit.
171 - point out that aio_copy overwrites existing files.
172 - removed filesystem magic number table from aio_statvfs docs as
173 statvfs doesn't actually return this info at all (statfs does).
174 - add a bunch of (mostly linux-specific) constants for use in ioctls
175 (see aio_ioctl docs).
176 - treescan now has a proper manpage and useful --help output.
177 - new option --sync in treescan, to sync everything in a subtree.
178 - changed default for aio_msync flags to MSYNC_SYNC.
179 - document offset/length behaviour of mprotect/madvise.
180 - support linux's renameat2 (via aio_rename2).
181 - add aio_rename2, an aio_rename with flags.
182 - add F_DUPPFD_CLOEXEC, F_OFD_[SG]ETLKW? constants.
183 - add FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE, FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE.
184 - (libeio) use posix_close if available.
185 - (libeio) internal close() calls no longer disturb errno.
186 - add IO:AIO::FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE.
187 - update schmorp.h for removal of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
188 and better eventfd detection.
189
1904.34 Sun May 1 19:18:24 CEST 2016
191 - def0.h was not properly generated during previous release, causing
192 compile errors on various platforms.
193 - major/minor were accidentally switched (reported by Alexander Lishenyuk).
194 - removed duplicate definition of MAP_HUGETLB, that was found due to
195 a bug in Perl::Tidy (testcase by alaska332@gmail.com).
196 - added (untested!) aio_fcntl, aio_ioctl requests.
197 - (libeio) names set via prctl are truncated to 15 chars + nul, not 16,
198 as manpages-dev originally claimed.
199
2004.33 Mon Jan 18 12:50:10 CET 2016
201 - add IO::AIO::pipe2 function.
202 - added support for FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE
203 constants.
204 - added support for O_TMPFILE and O_PATH constants.
205 - added support for MAP_FIXED, MAP_GROWSDOWN,MAP_32BIT, MAP_HUGETLB, MAP_STACK
206 consdtants, whether they can be sensibly used or not.
207 - use NO_INIT where applicable.
208 - update libecb.
209 - added stability canary support.
210 - updated linux super magic table to 4.3.3.
211
2124.32 Wed Feb 11 20:32:11 CET 2015
213 - replace off_t by STRLEN where appropriate, should not result in
214 user-visible changes.
215 - update ecb.h for C11 compatibility.
216
2174.31 Tue Jun 3 03:29:27 CEST 2014
218 - work around more 5.20 bugs. backwards compatibility my ass.
219
2204.3 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
221 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
222 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
223 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
224 compatibility - I will never understand.
225
2264.2 Sat Jan 25 01:13:14 CET 2014
227 - aio_group could corrupt memory because it didn't restore
228 the stack after req_submit.
229 - be more careful on (e.g. permission) errors in bin/treescan.
230 - work around changes in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
231 - (libeio) implement aio_realpath for win32.
232 - (xthread) work around compile time bugs in ptw32.
233 - added IO::AIO::pipesize.
234 - (libecb) insignificant update.
235
2364.19 Sun Jan 6 12:47:26 CET 2013
237 - avoid endless loop in fiemap with some XFS files.
238 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."]
239 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat.
240
2414.18 Thu Oct 11 07:01:26 CEST 2012
242 - fix unintended xthread_create by intentionalising it :)
243
2444.17 Thu Oct 11 05:19:47 CEST 2012
245 - rename aio_fallocate to aio_allocate, to match documentation.
246 - add list of linux fsid values to aio_statvfs docs.
247 - work around a bug in btrfs' FIEMAP ioctl implementation.
248 - work around AIX bug: statvfs.f_fsid is a struct, not unsigned long
249 as per unix spec.
250
2514.16 Tue Aug 14 05:39:03 CEST 2012
252 - aio_statvfs was wromgly marked for wd emulation, causing
253 it to malfunction for paths.
254 - fix a crash in aio_fiemap, when used on ranges without any
255 extents.
256 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel might
257 trash fiemap input arguments.
258 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel does not
259 set FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST on last segment.
260 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel silently
261 truncates segment count if a file.
262 - make fh argument of IO::AIO::mmap optional, also add mmap/munmap
263 to quick overview.
264 - splice can corrupt data.
265 - (libeio) remove pread/pwrite emulation.
266 - do not grow mmaped scalars in aio_read.

269
2704.15 Tue Apr 10 06:59:00 CEST 2012
271 - always include linux/types.h for fiemap, for compatibility to
272 ancient systems (Paul Howarth).
273 - experimental support for IO::AIO::splice and ::tee (no aio_...).
274 - provide SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA, if available.
275 - work around (again!) an immensely stupid bug in RHEL, defining
276 autoconf macros in linux system headers (analysed by Paul Howarth).
277
2784.14 Sat Apr 7 02:45:18 CEST 2012
12 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results. 279 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.
