4TODO: aio_cptree/mvtree/rmtree
5TODO: aio_utime, aio_chmod, aio_chown? should simply stat/open first?

72.2 Tue Oct 31 00:31:00 CET 2006
8 - minor doc updates.
9 - added aio_readlink.
10 - properly zero-terminate aio_read buffer.
11 - fix aio_read/write with nonzero dataoffset.
12
132.1 Sun Oct 29 02:01:57 CET 2006
14 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace IO::AIO::poll_some by
15 IO::AIO::max_poll_reqs and IO::AIO::max_poll_time.
16 - fix a bug in aio_move where it would fail everytime
17 it would have to copy files manually.
18 - doc updates.
19 - start threads only on (very low) demand.
20 - end superfluous threads automatically after 10s idling.
21 - add IO::AIO::max_idle to control this.
22 - some tuning applied to random places.
23 - add aio_mknod.
24
252.0 Thu Oct 26 18:27:58 CEST 2006
26 - minor incompatibility: max_outstanding semantics have changed.
27 - major rewrite, consider all functionality EXPERIMENTAL.
28 - aio requests can be cancelled.
29 - callbacks can be (re-)set later.
30 - aio requests can choose between 9 priorities.
31 - add aio_group: aio requests can be grouped
32 into composite requests.
33 - generator interface for groups.
34 - add IO::AIO::poll_some.
35 - major documentation improvements.
36 - very minor bugfixes.
37 - add aio_nop for dummy requests.
38 - add aio_busy mainly for benchmarking and debugging.
39 - use "fast" mutexes on linux.
40 - use dynamic (and larger) buffers instead of
41 putting them onto the stack.
42 - optimise x86 and amd64 a bit.
43 - better error checking when ENOMEM.
44 - hopefully fix mem and dirp leaks on fork.
45 - warn about broken perl malloc.
46 - compiles on cygwin (but pread is broken on cygwin
47 which is not detected by autoconf, so you have to
48 edit autoconf/config.h yourself to enable emulation).
49
501.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
51 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.
52
531.73 Wed Mar 1 22:49:32 CET 2006
54 - codename "jost"
55 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
56 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
57 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
58
591.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
60 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
61 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
62
631.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
64 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
65 in a runtime error.
66
671.7 Mon Dec 26 19:29:48 CET 2005
68 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
69 - added AnyEvent example.
70
711.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
72 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
73 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
74 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
75 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
76 wasting memory).
77
781.6 Tue Aug 30 17:44:44 CEST 2005
79 - added aio_readdir, aio_scandir.
80 - added aio_sendfile, including sendfile emulation when sendfile
81 isn't available. Linux, FreeBSD and HP-UX might work (sendfilev
82 support is unavailable on my solaris 8 machine, but preliminary
83 code is there. What's lacking is configury stuff and testing...).
84
851.5 Sat Aug 20 02:32:19 CEST 2005
4 - create the aio threads on demand only. 86 - create the aio threads on demand only (good after forking).
5 - somebody nagged about C89 compatibility, so this release should 87 - somebody nagged about C89 compatibility, so this release should
6 be C89 compatible, but no guarentees for future ones. 88 be C89 compatible, but no guarantees for future ones.
89 - abort when the configure script fails.
