31.5 3TODO: better autoconf.pm that can return LIBS etc.
4TODO: aio_cptree/mvtree
5TODO: aio_utime, aio_chmod, aio_chown? should simply stat/open first?

9 - shared code between BDB and IO::AIO.
10
112.33 Tue Jan 23 23:55:41 CET 2007
12 - fix install path (Andreas J. Koenig).
13
142.32 Mon Jan 22 16:56:23 CET 2007
15 - added aio_rmtree.
16 - wow, aio_mkdir was missing.
17 - aio_load did return undef on error, not -1.
18 - use prefixexp not prefix in autoconf.pm
19 (suggested by ... rt.cpan.org unreachable).
20 - avoid installing autoconf.pm.
21
222.31 Sat Jan 6 03:46:02 CET 2007
23 - added aio_load.
24
252.3 Sat Dec 23 05:48:07 CET 2006
26 - fix off-by-one bug in aio_read, causing memory corruption
27 or crashes.
28
292.21 Fri Dec 22 05:03:38 CET 2006
30 - minor doc updates.
31 - minor cleanups.
32 - IO::AIO::poll returns request count.
33 - undocumented and unfinished async-signal-reporting.
34
352.2 Tue Oct 31 00:31:00 CET 2006
36 - minor doc updates.
37 - added aio_readlink.
38 - properly zero-terminate aio_read buffer.
39 - fix aio_read/write with nonzero dataoffset.
40 - reduced size of aio request structure.
41 - better diagnostics when pathnames etc. are not byte-encoded;
42 do not leak request in that case, either.
43
442.1 Sun Oct 29 02:01:57 CET 2006
45 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace IO::AIO::poll_some by
46 IO::AIO::max_poll_reqs and IO::AIO::max_poll_time.
47 - fix a bug in aio_move where it would fail everytime
48 it would have to copy files manually.
49 - doc updates.
50 - start threads only on (very low) demand.
51 - end superfluous threads automatically after 10s idling.
52 - add IO::AIO::max_idle to control this.
53 - some tuning applied to random places.
54 - add aio_mknod.
55
562.0 Thu Oct 26 18:27:58 CEST 2006
57 - minor incompatibility: max_outstanding semantics have changed.
58 - major rewrite, consider all functionality EXPERIMENTAL.
59 - aio requests can be cancelled.
60 - callbacks can be (re-)set later.
61 - aio requests can choose between 9 priorities.
62 - add aio_group: aio requests can be grouped
63 into composite requests.
64 - generator interface for groups.
65 - add IO::AIO::poll_some.
66 - major documentation improvements.
67 - very minor bugfixes.
68 - add aio_nop for dummy requests.
69 - add aio_busy mainly for benchmarking and debugging.
70 - use "fast" mutexes on linux.
71 - use dynamic (and larger) buffers instead of
72 putting them onto the stack.
73 - optimise x86 and amd64 a bit.
74 - better error checking when ENOMEM.
75 - hopefully fix mem and dirp leaks on fork.
76 - warn about broken perl malloc.
77 - compiles on cygwin (but pread is broken on cygwin
78 which is not detected by autoconf, so you have to
79 edit autoconf/config.h yourself to enable emulation).
80
811.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
82 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.
83
841.73 Wed Mar 1 22:49:32 CET 2006
85 - codename "jost"
86 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
87 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
88 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
89
901.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
91 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
92 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
93
941.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
95 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
96 in a runtime error.
97
981.7 Mon Dec 26 19:29:48 CET 2005
99 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
100 - added AnyEvent example.
101
1021.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
103 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
104 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
105 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
106 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
107 wasting memory).
108
1091.6 Tue Aug 30 17:44:44 CEST 2005
110 - added aio_readdir, aio_scandir.
111 - added aio_sendfile, including sendfile emulation when sendfile
112 isn't available. Linux, FreeBSD and HP-UX might work (sendfilev
113 support is unavailable on my solaris 8 machine, but preliminary
114 code is there. What's lacking is configury stuff and testing...).
115
1161.5 Sat Aug 20 02:32:19 CEST 2005
4 - create the aio threads on demand only. 117 - create the aio threads on demand only (good after forking).
5 - somebody nagged about C89 compatibility, so this release should 118 - somebody nagged about C89 compatibility, so this release should
6 be C89 compatible, but no guarentees for future ones. 119 be C89 compatible, but no guarantees for future ones.
120 - abort when the configure script fails.

10 deadlocks. 124 deadlocks.

14 eating them. 128 eating them.
