414.7 Mon Mar 4 11:28:13 CET 2019
42 - majorly speed up scandir for the very special case of a non-POSIX
43 filesystem that nevertheless reports valid dt_type information.
44 The only known filesystem of this type is currently btrfs, which
45 didn't get it's act together to implement POSIX semantics in all
46 these years, and I am tired of waiting.
47 - add IO::AIO::MCL_ONFAULT for mlockall, add IO::AIO::mlockall.
48 - neither sys/mkdev.h nor sys/sysmacros.h were included, even when they
49 were detected by autoconf.
50
514.6 Sat Aug 25 21:58:36 CEST 2018
52 - add st_btime, st_btimesec, st_btimensec and st_gen accessors,
53 mostly for bsds which expose birthtime and st_gen members (netbsd, freebsd
54 but only st_gen on openbsd because they compiled their perl without support
55 for birthtimes).
56 - fix madvise and munlock to properly support negative offsets.
57 - allocate fd for the aio_close at boot time, to guarantee it working
58 later, rather than calling abort when it fails. also avoids
59 close-on-exec race issues after module load.
60 - #undef utime on win32, maybe this helps some reports of utime hangs.
61 - minor doc improvements.
62 - minor configure cleanups.
63 - use $Config{perllibs} instead of libs for configure. might help people
64 who didn't install all perl dependencies (might break things as well).
65
664.54 Tue Aug 14 13:54:48 CEST 2018
67 - include sys/mkdev.h or sys/sysmacros.h if available.
68 - further tweaks to configure invocation for systems requiring --rpath.
69 - no longer rely on custom paths on win32 platforms.
70 - try to work around buggy PAGESIZE macro on solaris.
71
724.53 Tue Aug 14 11:27:50 CEST 2018
73 - add $Config{libs} to LIBS for configure, to work around systems
74 with broken library dependencies (... openbsd).
75
764.52 Sun Aug 12 08:09:45 CEST 2018
77 - config.h.in was missing in distribution.
78
794.51 Sun Aug 12 07:24:14 CEST 2018
80 - complete rework of the autoconf framework: IO::AIO now uses its own
81 config.h, separate from libeio, and tries to test the actual perl
82 environment, not the standard system environment.
83 - provide nanosecond-accracy stat time accessors for both perl and IO::AIO
84 stat functions.
85 - removed non-portable C++ syntax from eio.c.
86 - try to fix readdir tests on cygwin spuriously failing.
87
884.5 Wed Aug 1 00:23:55 CEST 2018
89 - aio_mtouch touch all pages as requested, not just the first page in most cases.
90 - new function: IO::AIO::mremap, linux-specific mremap, with constants MREMAP_MAYMOVE
91 and MREMAP_FIXED.
92 - add O_ACCMODE.
93 - add (undocumented) MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC and SOCK_CLOEXEC constants.
94
954.4 Tue Feb 20 07:54:12 CET 2018
96 - new aio_slurp request.
97 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::eventfd and timerfd* function.
98 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::get_fdlimit and IO::AIO::min_fdlimit.
99 - point out that aio_copy overwrites existing files.
100 - removed filesystem magic number table from aio_statvfs docs as
101 statvfs doesn't actually return this info at all (statfs does).
102 - add a bunch of (mostly linux-specific) constants for use in ioctls
103 (see aio_ioctl docs).
104 - treescan now has a proper manpage and useful --help output.
105 - new option --sync in treescan, to sync everything in a subtree.
106 - changed default for aio_msync flags to MSYNC_SYNC.
107 - document offset/length behaviour of mprotect/madvise.
108 - support linux's renameat2 (via aio_rename2).
109 - add aio_rename2, an aio_rename with flags.
110 - add F_DUPPFD_CLOEXEC, F_OFD_[SG]ETLKW? constants.
111 - add FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE, FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE.
112 - (libeio) use posix_close if available.
113 - (libeio) internal close() calls no longer disturb errno.
114 - add IO:AIO::FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE.
115 - update schmorp.h for removal of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
116 and better eventfd detection.
117
1184.34 Sun May 1 19:18:24 CEST 2016
119 - def0.h was not properly generated during previous release, causing
120 compile errors on various platforms.
121 - major/minor were accidentally switched (reported by Alexander Lishenyuk).
122 - removed duplicate definition of MAP_HUGETLB, that was found due to
123 a bug in Perl::Tidy (testcase by alaska332@gmail.com).
124 - added (untested!) aio_fcntl, aio_ioctl requests.
125 - (libeio) names set via prctl are truncated to 15 chars + nul, not 16,
126 as manpages-dev originally claimed.
127
1284.33 Mon Jan 18 12:50:10 CET 2016
129 - add IO::AIO::pipe2 function.
130 - added support for FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE
131 constants.
132 - added support for O_TMPFILE and O_PATH constants.
133 - added support for MAP_FIXED, MAP_GROWSDOWN,MAP_32BIT, MAP_HUGETLB, MAP_STACK
134 consdtants, whether they can be sensibly used or not.
135 - use NO_INIT where applicable.
136 - update libecb.
137 - added stability canary support.
138 - updated linux super magic table to 4.3.3.
139
1404.32 Wed Feb 11 20:32:11 CET 2015
141 - replace off_t by STRLEN where appropriate, should not result in
142 user-visible changes.
143 - update ecb.h for C11 compatibility.
144
1454.31 Tue Jun 3 03:29:27 CEST 2014
146 - work around more 5.20 bugs. backwards compatibility my ass.
147
1484.3 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
149 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
150 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
151 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
152 compatibility - I will never understand.
153
1544.2 Sat Jan 25 01:13:14 CET 2014
155 - aio_group could corrupt memory because it didn't restore
156 the stack after req_submit.
157 - be more careful on (e.g. permission) errors in bin/treescan.
158 - work around changes in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
159 - (libeio) implement aio_realpath for win32.
160 - (xthread) work around compile time bugs in ptw32.
161 - added IO::AIO::pipesize.
162 - (libecb) insignificant update.

134.19 Sun Jan 6 12:47:26 CET 2013 1644.19 Sun Jan 6 12:47:26 CET 2013
14 - avoid endless loop in fiemap with some XFS files. 165 - avoid endless loop in fiemap with some XFS files.
15 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."] 166 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."]
16 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat. 167 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat.
