49
50 - aio_copy now tries to preallocate the destination file.
51 - fexecve configure test used the wrong pĆ¼ointer type (patch by Paul Howarth).
52
534.80 Sat 01 Apr 2023 04:13:37 CEST
54 - remove long obsolete "paths must be absolute" text in aio_open/stat
55 descriptions.
56 - another workaround for the low-quality musl libc.
57 - test for umount seperately, as it is more portable.
58 - some low-quality posix attempts (openbsd, osx) declare the availability
59 of fexecve but then don't even bother to implemnent a stub.
60
614.79 Sun 25 Sep 2022 18:25:53 CEST
62 - the autoconf result of the mount check was not used, so it failed to
63 compile on most systems (reported by crackoff@tutanota.com).
64 - work around fedora not having a working C compiler setup by design
65 (reported by Paul Howarth).
66
674.78 Tue 06 Sep 2022 12:54:43 CEST
68 - add IO::AIO::mount and IO::AIO::umount.
69 - add a bunch of symbols from sys/mount.h.
70
714.77 Mon 05 Sep 2022 02:03:38 CEST
72 - add MFD_HUGETLB_2MB and MFD_HUGETLB_1GB constants.
73 - add fexecve.
74 - add lots of missing functions to @EXPORT_OK.
75
764.76 Tue Jul 27 20:45:01 CEST 2021
77 - add autoconf test for siginfo_t, which is, of course, not
78 available on windows (reported by Peter Petky).
79 - disable syscalls on solaris, as perl seems to provide an
80 incompatible syscall prototype that clashes with sys/syscall.h.
81 - add MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE, MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, MAP_SYNC and
82 MAP_UNINITIALIZED.
83
844.75 Wed Dec 30 08:44:55 CET 2020
85 - removed leftover debug output from treescan.
86 - added (but not documented) waitid-P_*, FSPICK_*, FSOPEN_*,
87 FSCONFIG_*, MOUNT_ATTR_* constants.
88
894.74 Tue Dec 29 16:19:28 CET 2020
90 - added pidfd_open, pidfd_getfd and pidfd_send_signal functions.
91 - rework bin/treescan to avoid recursion. This fixes two bugs
92 where a deep directory traversal or a lot of command line
93 arguments could cause it to crash.
94 - added (but not documented) open_tree, AT_* and move_mount flags.
95 - support defining syscall numbers in gendef0.
96
974.73 Fri Dec 4 02:08:37 CET 2020
98 - def0.h was not uptodate, running into musl problems
99 (reported by B Fraser).
100 - IO::AIO::splice and IO::AIO::tee didn't properly return
101 64 bit values.
102 - added IO::AIO::accept4.
103 - add various F_SEAL related fcntl constants.
104 - removed experimental marker for fdlimit functions.
105 - fiemap now includes the last segment even if it overflows
106 the end offset, which is arguably the correct behaviour.
107
1084.72 Wed Apr 3 04:56:03 CEST 2019
109 - (libeio) if fd 0 is available do not use it for aio_wd, as it
110 collides with IO::AIO::CWD.
111 - added IO::AIO::memfd_create.
112 - correctly include <sys/uio.h> in the vmsplice test.
113 - reduce codesize by ~7% on amd64 by declaring more functions
114 as noinline.
115 - documentation fixes and updates.
116 - experimental and undocumented preliminary support for synchronous statx.
117
1184.71 Sun Mar 10 13:09:26 CET 2019
119 - due to an error in the linux manpages, the configure tests
120 for readahead, sync_file_range, splice etc. failed. This has been fixed.
121
1224.7 Mon Mar 4 11:28:13 CET 2019
123 - majorly speed up scandir for the very special case of a non-POSIX
124 filesystem that nevertheless reports valid dt_type information.
125 The only known filesystem of this type is currently btrfs, which
126 didn't get it's act together to implement POSIX semantics in all
127 these years, and I am tired of waiting.
128 - add IO::AIO::MCL_ONFAULT for mlockall, add IO::AIO::mlockall.
129 - neither sys/mkdev.h nor sys/sysmacros.h were included, even when they
130 were detected by autoconf.
131
1324.6 Sat Aug 25 21:58:36 CEST 2018
133 - add st_btime, st_btimesec, st_btimensec and st_gen accessors,
134 mostly for bsds which expose birthtime and st_gen members (netbsd, freebsd
135 but only st_gen on openbsd because they compiled their perl without support
136 for birthtimes).
137 - fix madvise and munlock to properly support negative offsets.
138 - allocate fd for the aio_close at boot time, to guarantee it working
139 later, rather than calling abort when it fails. also avoids
140 close-on-exec race issues after module load.
141 - #undef utime on win32, maybe this helps some reports of utime hangs.
142 - minor doc improvements.
143 - minor configure cleanups.
144 - use $Config{perllibs} instead of libs for configure. might help people
145 who didn't install all perl dependencies (might break things as well).
146
1474.54 Tue Aug 14 13:54:48 CEST 2018
148 - include sys/mkdev.h or sys/sysmacros.h if available.
149 - further tweaks to configure invocation for systems requiring --rpath.
150 - no longer rely on custom paths on win32 platforms.
151 - try to work around buggy PAGESIZE macro on solaris.
152
1534.53 Tue Aug 14 11:27:50 CEST 2018
154 - add $Config{libs} to LIBS for configure, to work around systems
155 with broken library dependencies (... openbsd).
156
1574.52 Sun Aug 12 08:09:45 CEST 2018
158 - config.h.in was missing in distribution.
159
1604.51 Sun Aug 12 07:24:14 CEST 2018
161 - complete rework of the autoconf framework: IO::AIO now uses its own
162 config.h, separate from libeio, and tries to test the actual perl
163 environment, not the standard system environment.
164 - provide nanosecond-accracy stat time accessors for both perl and IO::AIO
165 stat functions.
166 - removed non-portable C++ syntax from eio.c.
167 - try to fix readdir tests on cygwin spuriously failing.
168
1694.5 Wed Aug 1 00:23:55 CEST 2018
170 - aio_mtouch touch all pages as requested, not just the first page in most cases.
171 - new function: IO::AIO::mremap, linux-specific mremap, with constants MREMAP_MAYMOVE
172 and MREMAP_FIXED.
173 - add O_ACCMODE.
174 - add (undocumented) MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC and SOCK_CLOEXEC constants.
175
1764.4 Tue Feb 20 07:54:12 CET 2018
177 - new aio_slurp request.
178 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::eventfd and timerfd* function.
179 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::get_fdlimit and IO::AIO::min_fdlimit.
180 - point out that aio_copy overwrites existing files.
181 - removed filesystem magic number table from aio_statvfs docs as
182 statvfs doesn't actually return this info at all (statfs does).
183 - add a bunch of (mostly linux-specific) constants for use in ioctls
184 (see aio_ioctl docs).
185 - treescan now has a proper manpage and useful --help output.
186 - new option --sync in treescan, to sync everything in a subtree.
187 - changed default for aio_msync flags to MSYNC_SYNC.
188 - document offset/length behaviour of mprotect/madvise.
189 - support linux's renameat2 (via aio_rename2).
190 - add aio_rename2, an aio_rename with flags.
191 - add F_DUPPFD_CLOEXEC, F_OFD_[SG]ETLKW? constants.
192 - add FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE, FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE.
193 - (libeio) use posix_close if available.
194 - (libeio) internal close() calls no longer disturb errno.
195 - add IO:AIO::FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE.
196 - update schmorp.h for removal of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
197 and better eventfd detection.
198
1994.34 Sun May 1 19:18:24 CEST 2016
200 - def0.h was not properly generated during previous release, causing
201 compile errors on various platforms.
202 - major/minor were accidentally switched (reported by Alexander Lishenyuk).
203 - removed duplicate definition of MAP_HUGETLB, that was found due to
204 a bug in Perl::Tidy (testcase by alaska332@gmail.com).
205 - added (untested!) aio_fcntl, aio_ioctl requests.
206 - (libeio) names set via prctl are truncated to 15 chars + nul, not 16,
207 as manpages-dev originally claimed.
208
2094.33 Mon Jan 18 12:50:10 CET 2016
210 - add IO::AIO::pipe2 function.
211 - added support for FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE
212 constants.
213 - added support for O_TMPFILE and O_PATH constants.
214 - added support for MAP_FIXED, MAP_GROWSDOWN,MAP_32BIT, MAP_HUGETLB, MAP_STACK
215 consdtants, whether they can be sensibly used or not.
216 - use NO_INIT where applicable.
217 - update libecb.
218 - added stability canary support.
219 - updated linux super magic table to 4.3.3.
220
2214.32 Wed Feb 11 20:32:11 CET 2015
222 - replace off_t by STRLEN where appropriate, should not result in
223 user-visible changes.
224 - update ecb.h for C11 compatibility.
225
2264.31 Tue Jun 3 03:29:27 CEST 2014
227 - work around more 5.20 bugs. backwards compatibility my ass.
228
2294.3 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
230 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
231 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
232 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
233 compatibility - I will never understand.
234
2354.2 Sat Jan 25 01:13:14 CET 2014
236 - aio_group could corrupt memory because it didn't restore
237 the stack after req_submit.
238 - be more careful on (e.g. permission) errors in bin/treescan.
239 - work around changes in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
240 - (libeio) implement aio_realpath for win32.
241 - (xthread) work around compile time bugs in ptw32.
242 - added IO::AIO::pipesize.
243 - (libecb) insignificant update.
244
2454.19 Sun Jan 6 12:47:26 CET 2013
246 - avoid endless loop in fiemap with some XFS files.
13 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."] 247 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."]
14 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat. 248 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat.
15 249
164.18 Thu Oct 11 07:01:26 CEST 2012 2504.18 Thu Oct 11 07:01:26 CEST 2012
