414.71 Sun Mar 10 13:09:26 CET 2019
42 - due to an error in the linux manpages, the configure tests
43 for readahead, sync_file_range, splice etc. failed. This has been fixed.
44
454.7 Mon Mar 4 11:28:13 CET 2019
46 - majorly speed up scandir for the very special case of a non-POSIX
47 filesystem that nevertheless reports valid dt_type information.
48 The only known filesystem of this type is currently btrfs, which
49 didn't get it's act together to implement POSIX semantics in all
50 these years, and I am tired of waiting.
51 - add IO::AIO::MCL_ONFAULT for mlockall, add IO::AIO::mlockall.
52 - neither sys/mkdev.h nor sys/sysmacros.h were included, even when they
53 were detected by autoconf.
54
554.6 Sat Aug 25 21:58:36 CEST 2018
56 - add st_btime, st_btimesec, st_btimensec and st_gen accessors,
57 mostly for bsds which expose birthtime and st_gen members (netbsd, freebsd
58 but only st_gen on openbsd because they compiled their perl without support
59 for birthtimes).
60 - fix madvise and munlock to properly support negative offsets.
61 - allocate fd for the aio_close at boot time, to guarantee it working
62 later, rather than calling abort when it fails. also avoids
63 close-on-exec race issues after module load.
64 - #undef utime on win32, maybe this helps some reports of utime hangs.
65 - minor doc improvements.
66 - minor configure cleanups.
67 - use $Config{perllibs} instead of libs for configure. might help people
68 who didn't install all perl dependencies (might break things as well).
69
704.54 Tue Aug 14 13:54:48 CEST 2018
71 - include sys/mkdev.h or sys/sysmacros.h if available.
72 - further tweaks to configure invocation for systems requiring --rpath.
73 - no longer rely on custom paths on win32 platforms.
74 - try to work around buggy PAGESIZE macro on solaris.
75
764.53 Tue Aug 14 11:27:50 CEST 2018
77 - add $Config{libs} to LIBS for configure, to work around systems
78 with broken library dependencies (... openbsd).
79
804.52 Sun Aug 12 08:09:45 CEST 2018
81 - config.h.in was missing in distribution.
82
834.51 Sun Aug 12 07:24:14 CEST 2018
84 - complete rework of the autoconf framework: IO::AIO now uses its own
85 config.h, separate from libeio, and tries to test the actual perl
86 environment, not the standard system environment.
87 - provide nanosecond-accracy stat time accessors for both perl and IO::AIO
88 stat functions.
89 - removed non-portable C++ syntax from eio.c.
90 - try to fix readdir tests on cygwin spuriously failing.
91
924.5 Wed Aug 1 00:23:55 CEST 2018
93 - aio_mtouch touch all pages as requested, not just the first page in most cases.
94 - new function: IO::AIO::mremap, linux-specific mremap, with constants MREMAP_MAYMOVE
95 and MREMAP_FIXED.
96 - add O_ACCMODE.
97 - add (undocumented) MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC and SOCK_CLOEXEC constants.
98
994.4 Tue Feb 20 07:54:12 CET 2018
100 - new aio_slurp request.
101 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::eventfd and timerfd* function.
102 - add (experimental) IO::AIO::get_fdlimit and IO::AIO::min_fdlimit.
103 - point out that aio_copy overwrites existing files.
104 - removed filesystem magic number table from aio_statvfs docs as
105 statvfs doesn't actually return this info at all (statfs does).
106 - add a bunch of (mostly linux-specific) constants for use in ioctls
107 (see aio_ioctl docs).
108 - treescan now has a proper manpage and useful --help output.
109 - new option --sync in treescan, to sync everything in a subtree.
110 - changed default for aio_msync flags to MSYNC_SYNC.
111 - document offset/length behaviour of mprotect/madvise.
112 - support linux's renameat2 (via aio_rename2).
113 - add aio_rename2, an aio_rename with flags.
114 - add F_DUPPFD_CLOEXEC, F_OFD_[SG]ETLKW? constants.
115 - add FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE, FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE.
116 - (libeio) use posix_close if available.
117 - (libeio) internal close() calls no longer disturb errno.
118 - add IO:AIO::FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE.
119 - update schmorp.h for removal of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
120 and better eventfd detection.
121
1224.34 Sun May 1 19:18:24 CEST 2016
123 - def0.h was not properly generated during previous release, causing
124 compile errors on various platforms.
125 - major/minor were accidentally switched (reported by Alexander Lishenyuk).
126 - removed duplicate definition of MAP_HUGETLB, that was found due to
127 a bug in Perl::Tidy (testcase by alaska332@gmail.com).
128 - added (untested!) aio_fcntl, aio_ioctl requests.
129 - (libeio) names set via prctl are truncated to 15 chars + nul, not 16,
130 as manpages-dev originally claimed.
131
1324.33 Mon Jan 18 12:50:10 CET 2016
133 - add IO::AIO::pipe2 function.
134 - added support for FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE
135 constants.
136 - added support for O_TMPFILE and O_PATH constants.
137 - added support for MAP_FIXED, MAP_GROWSDOWN,MAP_32BIT, MAP_HUGETLB, MAP_STACK
138 consdtants, whether they can be sensibly used or not.
139 - use NO_INIT where applicable.
140 - update libecb.
141 - added stability canary support.
142 - updated linux super magic table to 4.3.3.
143
1444.32 Wed Feb 11 20:32:11 CET 2015
145 - replace off_t by STRLEN where appropriate, should not result in
146 user-visible changes.
147 - update ecb.h for C11 compatibility.
24 148
254.31 Tue Jun 3 03:29:27 CEST 2014 1494.31 Tue Jun 3 03:29:27 CEST 2014
26 - work around more 5.20 bugs. backwards compatibility my ass. 150 - work around more 5.20 bugs. backwards compatibility my ass.
