144.0 13 - (libeio) implement aio_realpath for win32.
14 - (xthread) work around compile time bugs in ptw32.
15
164.19 Sun Jan 6 12:47:26 CET 2013
17 - avoid endless loop in fiemap with some XFS files.
18 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."]
19 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat.
20
214.18 Thu Oct 11 07:01:26 CEST 2012
22 - fix unintended xthread_create by intentionalising it :)
23
244.17 Thu Oct 11 05:19:47 CEST 2012
25 - rename aio_fallocate to aio_allocate, to match documentation.
26 - add list of linux fsid values to aio_statvfs docs.
27 - work around a bug in btrfs' FIEMAP ioctl implementation.
28 - work around AIX bug: statvfs.f_fsid is a struct, not unsigned long
29 as per unix spec.
30
314.16 Tue Aug 14 05:39:03 CEST 2012
32 - aio_statvfs was wromgly marked for wd emulation, causing
33 it to malfunction for paths.
34 - fix a crash in aio_fiemap, when used on ranges without any
35 extents.
36 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel might
37 trash fiemap input arguments.
38 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel does not
39 set FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST on last segment.
40 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel silently
41 truncates segment count if a file.
42 - make fh argument of IO::AIO::mmap optional, also add mmap/munmap
43 to quick overview.
44 - splice can corrupt data.
45 - (libeio) remove pread/pwrite emulation.
46 - do not grow mmaped scalars in aio_read.
47 - add FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE and document fallocate.
48 - provide pread/pwrite for win32, making it link again on native win32.
49
504.15 Tue Apr 10 06:59:00 CEST 2012
51 - always include linux/types.h for fiemap, for compatibility to
52 ancient systems (Paul Howarth).
53 - experimental support for IO::AIO::splice and ::tee (no aio_...).
54 - provide SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA, if available.
55 - work around (again!) an immensely stupid bug in RHEL, defining
56 autoconf macros in linux system headers (analysed by Paul Howarth).
57
584.14 Sat Apr 7 02:45:18 CEST 2012
59 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.
60 - (libeio) make readahead emulation behave more like actual readahead by never failing.
61 - new request aio_seek.
62 - new request aio_fiemap.
63 - autogenerate the #ifdef/#define 0 blocks for symbols we export.
64
654.12 Fri Dec 30 08:51:25 CET 2011
66 - realpath would return a random value if the name was too long,
67 instead of -1.
68 - port to c89.
69
704.11 Mon Oct 10 00:24:11 CEST 2011
71 - libeio didn't compile on !linux (Paul Howarth).
72
734.1 Sun Oct 9 10:24:11 CEST 2011
74 - IO::AIO did access uninitialised memory on unsuccessful stats.
75 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
76 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
77 - (libeio) support multiple indepenent working directories.
78 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
79 - tune treescan #threads and #outstanding requests a bit.
80 - reduce the number of file descriptors in use at any one time
81 in treescan, to avoid running out of them (and using too much ram).
82 - take advantage of working directoriy abstractions
83 in aio_scandir and treescan.
84 - reduce compiled size by ~10% by not inlining some key functionality.
85 - added --progress switch to treescan.
86
874.0 Mon Jul 18 05:01:10 CEST 2011
15 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: fork is no longer supported (indeed, it never was), 88 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: fork is no longer supported (indeed, it never was),
16 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details. 89 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details.
17 - passes testsuite on win32 now (activetstate 5.10.1, YMMV). 90 - passes testsuite on win32 now and may actually work
91 (activestate 5.10.1 / MSVC6, YMMV).
18 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when 92 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
19 a timeout occured at the same time. 93 a timeout occured at the same time.
20 - (libeio) added realpath. 94 - (libeio) added realpath.
21 - (libeio) added fallocate. 95 - (libeio) added fallocate.
22 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation. 96 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation.
