47 - add MADV_FREE constant.
48 - add a bunch of (mostly linux-specific) constants for use in ioctls
49 (see aio_ioctl docs).
50 - treescan now has a proper manpage and useful --help output.
51 - new option --sync in treescan, to sync everything in a subtree.
52 - changed default for aio_msync flags to MSYNC_SYNC.
53 - document offset/length behaviour of mprotect/madvise.
54 - support linux's renameat2 (via aio_rename2).

56
574.34 Sun May 1 19:18:24 CEST 2016
58 - def0.h was not properly generated during previous release, causing
59 compile errors on various platforms.
60 - major/minor were accidentally switched (reported by Alexander Lishenyuk).
61 - removed duplicate definition of MAP_HUGETLB, that was found due to
62 a bug in Perl::Tidy (testcase by alaska332@gmail.com).
63 - added (untested!) aio_fcntl, aio_ioctl requests.
64 - (libeio) names set via prctl are truncated to 15 chars + nul, not 16,
65 as manpages-dev originally claimed.
66
674.33 Mon Jan 18 12:50:10 CET 2016
68 - add IO::AIO::pipe2 function.
69 - added support for FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE
70 constants.
71 - added support for O_TMPFILE and O_PATH constants.
72 - added support for MAP_FIXED, MAP_GROWSDOWN,MAP_32BIT, MAP_HUGETLB, MAP_STACK
73 consdtants, whether they can be sensibly used or not.
74 - use NO_INIT where applicable.
75 - update libecb.
76 - added stability canary support.
77 - updated linux super magic table to 4.3.3.
78
794.32 Wed Feb 11 20:32:11 CET 2015
80 - replace off_t by STRLEN where appropriate, should not result in
81 user-visible changes.

83
844.31 Tue Jun 3 03:29:27 CEST 2014
85 - work around more 5.20 bugs. backwards compatibility my ass.
86
874.3 Fri Apr 11 06:22:38 CEST 2014
88 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
89 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
90 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
91 compatibility - I will never understand.
92
934.2 Sat Jan 25 01:13:14 CET 2014
94 - aio_group could corrupt memory because it didn't restore
95 the stack after req_submit.
96 - be more careful on (e.g. permission) errors in bin/treescan.
97 - work around changes in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
98 - (libeio) implement aio_realpath for win32.
99 - (xthread) work around compile time bugs in ptw32.
100 - added IO::AIO::pipesize.
101 - (libecb) insignificant update.
102
1034.19 Sun Jan 6 12:47:26 CET 2013
104 - avoid endless loop in fiemap with some XFS files.
105 - in aio_rename and aio_rmdir, specialcase the case of [$wd, "."]
106 and call rename/rmdir instead of renameat/unlinkat.
107
1084.18 Thu Oct 11 07:01:26 CEST 2012
109 - fix unintended xthread_create by intentionalising it :)
110
1114.17 Thu Oct 11 05:19:47 CEST 2012
112 - rename aio_fallocate to aio_allocate, to match documentation.
113 - add list of linux fsid values to aio_statvfs docs.
114 - work around a bug in btrfs' FIEMAP ioctl implementation.
115 - work around AIX bug: statvfs.f_fsid is a struct, not unsigned long
116 as per unix spec.
117
1184.16 Tue Aug 14 05:39:03 CEST 2012
119 - aio_statvfs was wromgly marked for wd emulation, causing
120 it to malfunction for paths.
121 - fix a crash in aio_fiemap, when used on ranges without any
122 extents.
123 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel might
124 trash fiemap input arguments.
125 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel does not
126 set FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST on last segment.
127 - work around linux kernel bug (at least in 3.2): kernel silently
128 truncates segment count if a file.
129 - make fh argument of IO::AIO::mmap optional, also add mmap/munmap
130 to quick overview.
131 - splice can corrupt data.
132 - (libeio) remove pread/pwrite emulation.
133 - do not grow mmaped scalars in aio_read.
134 - add FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE and document fallocate.
135 - provide pread/pwrite for win32, making it link again on native win32.
136
1374.15 Tue Apr 10 06:59:00 CEST 2012
138 - always include linux/types.h for fiemap, for compatibility to
139 ancient systems (Paul Howarth).
140 - experimental support for IO::AIO::splice and ::tee (no aio_...).
141 - provide SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA, if available.
142 - work around (again!) an immensely stupid bug in RHEL, defining
143 autoconf macros in linux system headers (analysed by Paul Howarth).
144
1454.14 Sat Apr 7 02:45:18 CEST 2012
146 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.
147 - (libeio) make readahead emulation behave more like actual readahead by never failing.
148 - new request aio_seek.
149 - new request aio_fiemap.
150 - autogenerate the #ifdef/#define 0 blocks for symbols we export.
151
1524.12 Fri Dec 30 08:51:25 CET 2011
153 - realpath would return a random value if the name was too long,
154 instead of -1.
155 - port to c89.
156
1574.11 Mon Oct 10 00:24:11 CEST 2011
158 - libeio didn't compile on !linux (Paul Howarth).
159
1604.1 Sun Oct 9 10:24:11 CEST 2011
161 - IO::AIO did access uninitialised memory on unsuccessful stats.
11 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper. 162 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
12 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb). 163 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
164 - (libeio) support multiple indepenent working directories.
165 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
166 - tune treescan #threads and #outstanding requests a bit.
167 - reduce the number of file descriptors in use at any one time
168 in treescan, to avoid running out of them (and using too much ram).
169 - take advantage of working directoriy abstractions
170 in aio_scandir and treescan.
171 - reduce compiled size by ~10% by not inlining some key functionality.
172 - added --progress switch to treescan.

16 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details. 176 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details.
