9 - added aio_rmtree.

112.31 Sat Jan 6 03:46:02 CET 2007
12 - added aio_load.
13
142.3 Sat Dec 23 05:48:07 CET 2006
15 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_read, causing memory corruption
16 or crashes.
17
182.21 Fri Dec 22 05:03:38 CET 2006
19 - minor doc updates.
20 - minor cleanups.
21 - IO::AIO::poll returns request count.
22 - undocumented and unfinished async-signal-reporting.
23
242.2 Tue Oct 31 00:31:00 CET 2006
25 - minor doc updates.
26 - added aio_readlink.
27 - properly zero-terminate aio_read buffer.
28 - fix aio_read/write with nonzero dataoffset.
29 - reduced size of aio request structure.
30 - better diagnostics when pathnames etc. are not byte-encoded;
31 do not leak request in that case, either.
32
332.1 Sun Oct 29 02:01:57 CET 2006
34 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace IO::AIO::poll_some by
35 IO::AIO::max_poll_reqs and IO::AIO::max_poll_time.
36 - fix a bug in aio_move where it would fail everytime
37 it would have to copy files manually.
38 - doc updates.
39 - start threads only on (very low) demand.
40 - end superfluous threads automatically after 10s idling.
41 - add IO::AIO::max_idle to control this.
42 - some tuning applied to random places.
43 - add aio_mknod.
44
452.0 Thu Oct 26 18:27:58 CEST 2006
46 - minor incompatibility: max_outstanding semantics have changed.
47 - major rewrite, consider all functionality EXPERIMENTAL.
48 - aio requests can be cancelled.
49 - callbacks can be (re-)set later.
50 - aio requests can choose between 9 priorities.
51 - add aio_group: aio requests can be grouped
52 into composite requests.
53 - generator interface for groups.
54 - add IO::AIO::poll_some.
55 - major documentation improvements.
56 - very minor bugfixes.
57 - add aio_nop for dummy requests.
58 - add aio_busy mainly for benchmarking and debugging.
59 - use "fast" mutexes on linux.
60 - use dynamic (and larger) buffers instead of
61 putting them onto the stack.
62 - optimise x86 and amd64 a bit.
63 - better error checking when ENOMEM.
64 - hopefully fix mem and dirp leaks on fork.
65 - warn about broken perl malloc.
66 - compiles on cygwin (but pread is broken on cygwin
67 which is not detected by autoconf, so you have to
68 edit autoconf/config.h yourself to enable emulation).
69
701.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
71 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.
72
731.73 Wed Mar 1 22:49:32 CET 2006
74 - codename "jost"
75 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
76 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
77 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
78
791.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
80 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
81 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
82
831.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
84 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
85 in a runtime error.
86
871.7 Mon Dec 26 19:29:48 CET 2005
88 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
89 - added AnyEvent example.
90
911.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
92 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
93 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
94 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
95 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
96 wasting memory).
97
981.6 Tue Aug 30 17:44:44 CEST 2005
99 - added aio_readdir, aio_scandir.
100 - added aio_sendfile, including sendfile emulation when sendfile
101 isn't available. Linux, FreeBSD and HP-UX might work (sendfilev
102 support is unavailable on my solaris 8 machine, but preliminary
103 code is there. What's lacking is configury stuff and testing...).

4 - create the aio threads on demand only. 106 - create the aio threads on demand only (good after forking).

6 be C89 compatible, but no guarentees for future ones. 108 be C89 compatible, but no guarantees for future ones.
109 - abort when the configure script fails.
