414.72 Wed Apr 3 04:56:03 CEST 2019
42 - (libeio) if fd 0 is available do not use it for aio_wd, as it
43 collides with IO::AIO::CWD.
44 - added IO::AIO::memfd_create.
45 - correctly include <sys/uio.h> in the vmsplice test.
46 - reduce codesize by ~7% on amd64 by declaring more functions
47 as noinline.
48 - documentation fixes and updates.
49 - experimental and undocumented preliminary support for synchronous statx.
50
514.71 Sun Mar 10 13:09:26 CET 2019
52 - due to an error in the linux manpages, the configure tests
53 for readahead, sync_file_range, splice etc. failed. This has been fixed.
54
554.7 Mon Mar 4 11:28:13 CET 2019
56 - majorly speed up scandir for the very special case of a non-POSIX
57 filesystem that nevertheless reports valid dt_type information.
58 The only known filesystem of this type is currently btrfs, which
59 didn't get it's act together to implement POSIX semantics in all
60 these years, and I am tired of waiting.
61 - add IO::AIO::MCL_ONFAULT for mlockall, add IO::AIO::mlockall.
62 - neither sys/mkdev.h nor sys/sysmacros.h were included, even when they
63 were detected by autoconf.
64
654.6 Sat Aug 25 21:58:36 CEST 2018
66 - add st_btime, st_btimesec, st_btimensec and st_gen accessors,
67 mostly for bsds which expose birthtime and st_gen members (netbsd, freebsd
68 but only st_gen on openbsd because they compiled their perl without support
69 for birthtimes).
70 - fix madvise and munlock to properly support negative offsets.
71 - allocate fd for the aio_close at boot time, to guarantee it working
72 later, rather than calling abort when it fails. also avoids
73 close-on-exec race issues after module load.
74 - #undef utime on win32, maybe this helps some reports of utime hangs.
75 - minor doc improvements.
76 - minor configure cleanups.
77 - use $Config{perllibs} instead of libs for configure. might help people
78 who didn't install all perl dependencies (might break things as well).
79
804.54 Tue Aug 14 13:54:48 CEST 2018
81 - include sys/mkdev.h or sys/sysmacros.h if available.
82 - further tweaks to configure invocation for systems requiring --rpath.
83 - no longer rely on custom paths on win32 platforms.
84 - try to work around buggy PAGESIZE macro on solaris.
85
864.53 Tue Aug 14 11:27:50 CEST 2018
87 - add $Config{libs} to LIBS for configure, to work around systems
88 with broken library dependencies (... openbsd).
89
904.52 Sun Aug 12 08:09:45 CEST 2018
91 - config.h.in was missing in distribution.
92
934.51 Sun Aug 12 07:24:14 CEST 2018
94 - complete rework of the autoconf framework: IO::AIO now uses its own
95 config.h, separate from libeio, and tries to test the actual perl
96 environment, not the standard system environment.
97 - provide nanosecond-accracy stat time accessors for both perl and IO::AIO
98 stat functions.
99 - removed non-portable C++ syntax from eio.c.
100 - try to fix readdir tests on cygwin spuriously failing.
101
1024.5 Wed Aug 1 00:23:55 CEST 2018
103 - aio_mtouch touch all pages as requested, not just the first page in most cases.
104 - new function: IO::AIO::mremap, linux-specific mremap, with constants MREMAP_MAYMOVE
105 and MREMAP_FIXED.
106 - add O_ACCMODE.
107 - add (undocumented) MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC and SOCK_CLOEXEC constants.
108
1094.4 Tue Feb 20 07:54:12 CET 2018
110 - new aio_slurp request.
111 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::eventfd and timerfd* function.
112 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::get_fdlimit and IO::AIO::min_fdlimit.
113 - point out that aio_copy overwrites existing files.
114 - removed filesystem magic number table from aio_statvfs docs as
115 statvfs doesn't actually return this info at all (statfs does).
116 - add a bunch of (mostly linux-specific) constants for use in ioctls
117 (see aio_ioctl docs).
118 - treescan now has a proper manpage and useful --help output.
119 - new option --sync in treescan, to sync everything in a subtree.
120 - changed default for aio_msync flags to MSYNC_SYNC.
121 - document offset/length behaviour of mprotect/madvise.
122 - support linux's renameat2 (via aio_rename2).
123 - add aio_rename2, an aio_rename with flags.
124 - add F_DUPPFD_CLOEXEC, F_OFD_[SG]ETLKW? constants.
125 - add FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE, FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE.
126 - (libeio) use posix_close if available.
127 - (libeio) internal close() calls no longer disturb errno.
128 - add IO:AIO::FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE.
129 - update schmorp.h for removal of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
130 and better eventfd detection.
131
1324.34 Sun May 1 19:18:24 CEST 2016
133 - def0.h was not properly generated during previous release, causing
134 compile errors on various platforms.
135 - major/minor were accidentally switched (reported by Alexander Lishenyuk).
136 - removed duplicate definition of MAP_HUGETLB, that was found due to
137 a bug in Perl::Tidy (testcase by alaska332@gmail.com).
138 - added (untested!) aio_fcntl, aio_ioctl requests.
139 - (libeio) names set via prctl are truncated to 15 chars + nul, not 16,
140 as manpages-dev originally claimed.
141
1424.33 Mon Jan 18 12:50:10 CET 2016
143 - add IO::AIO::pipe2 function.
144 - added support for FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE
145 constants.
146 - added support for O_TMPFILE and O_PATH constants.
147 - added support for MAP_FIXED, MAP_GROWSDOWN,MAP_32BIT, MAP_HUGETLB, MAP_STACK
148 consdtants, whether they can be sensibly used or not.
149 - use NO_INIT where applicable.
150 - update libecb.
151 - added stability canary support.
152 - updated linux super magic table to 4.3.3.
153
1544.32 Wed Feb 11 20:32:11 CET 2015
155 - replace off_t by STRLEN where appropriate, should not result in
156 user-visible changes.
157 - update ecb.h for C11 compatibility.
158
1594.31 Tue Jun 3 03:29:27 CEST 2014
160 - work around more 5.20 bugs. backwards compatibility my ass.
161
1624.3 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
163 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
164 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
165 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
166 compatibility - I will never understand.
167
1684.2 Sat Jan 25 01:13:14 CET 2014
169 - aio_group could corrupt memory because it didn't restore
170 the stack after req_submit.
171 - be more careful on (e.g. permission) errors in bin/treescan.
172 - work around changes in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
173 - (libeio) implement aio_realpath for win32.
174 - (xthread) work around compile time bugs in ptw32.
175 - added IO::AIO::pipesize.
176 - (libecb) insignificant update.
177
1784.19 Sun Jan 6 12:47:26 CET 2013
179 - avoid endless loop in fiemap with some XFS files.
13 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."] 180 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."]
14 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat. 181 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat.
