3 - (experimental) sendfile support, including sendfile emulation 3TODO: better autoconf.pm that can return LIBS etc.

52.0 Thu Oct 26 18:27:58 CEST 2006
6 - minor incompatibility: max_outstanding semantics have changed.
7 - major rewrite, consider all functionality EXPERIMENTAL.
8 - aio requests can be cancelled.
9 - callbacks can be (re-)set later.
10 - aio requests can have choose 9 priorities.
11 - add aio_group: aio requests can be grouped
12 into composite requests.
13 - generator interface for groups.
14 - add IO::AIO::poll_some.
15 - major documentation improvements.
16 - very minor bugfixes.
17 - add aio_nop for dummy requests.
18 - add aio_busy mainly for benchmarking and debugging.
19 - use "fast" mutexes on linux.
20 - use dynamic (and larger) buffers instead of
21 putting them onto the stack.
22 - optimise x86 and amd64 a bit.
23 - better error checking when ENOMEM.
24 - hopefully fix mem and dirp leaks on fork.
25 - warn about broken perl malloc.
26 - compiles on cygwin (but pread is broken on cygwin
27 which is not detected by autoconf, so you have to
28 edit autoconf/config.h yourself to enable emulation).
29
301.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
31 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.
32

34 - codename "jost"
35 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
36 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
37 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
38
391.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
40 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
41 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
42
431.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
44 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
45 in a runtime error.
46
471.7 Mon Dec 26 19:29:48 CET 2005
48 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
49 - added AnyEvent example.
50
511.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
52 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
53 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
54 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
55 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
56 wasting memory).
57
581.6 Tue Aug 30 17:44:44 CEST 2005
59 - added aio_readdir, aio_scandir.
60 - added aio_sendfile, including sendfile emulation when sendfile
4 when sendfile isn't available. Linux, FreeBSD and HP-UX might 61 isn't available. Linux, FreeBSD and HP-UX might work (sendfilev
5 work (sendfilev support is unavailable on my solaris 8 machine...). 62 support is unavailable on my solaris 8 machine, but preliminary
63 code is there. What's lacking is configury stuff and testing...).

10 be C89 compatible, but no guarantees for future ones. 68 be C89 compatible, but no guarantees for future ones.
