3TODO: better autoconf.pm that can return LIBS etc.
4TODO: aio_cptree/mvtree/rmtree
5TODO: aio_utime, aio_chmod, aio_chown? should simply stat/open first?
6TODO: reduce condvar fairness: schedule hot-cache-threads first?

8 - minor doc updates.
9 - minor cleanups.

122.2 Tue Oct 31 00:31:00 CET 2006
13 - minor doc updates.
14 - added aio_readlink.
15 - properly zero-terminate aio_read buffer.
16 - fix aio_read/write with nonzero dataoffset.
17 - reduced size of aio request structure.
18 - better diagnostics when pathnames etc. are not byte-encoded;
19 do not leak request in that case, either.

212.1 Sun Oct 29 02:01:57 CET 2006
22 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: replace IO::AIO::poll_some by
23 IO::AIO::max_poll_reqs and IO::AIO::max_poll_time.
24 - fix a bug in aio_move where it would fail everytime
25 it would have to copy files manually.
26 - doc updates.
27 - start threads only on (very low) demand.
28 - end superfluous threads automatically after 10s idling.
29 - add IO::AIO::max_idle to control this.
30 - some tuning applied to random places.
31 - add aio_mknod.
32
332.0 Thu Oct 26 18:27:58 CEST 2006
34 - minor incompatibility: max_outstanding semantics have changed.
35 - major rewrite, consider all functionality EXPERIMENTAL.
36 - aio requests can be cancelled.
37 - callbacks can be (re-)set later.
38 - aio requests can choose between 9 priorities.
39 - add aio_group: aio requests can be grouped
40 into composite requests.
41 - generator interface for groups.
42 - add IO::AIO::poll_some.
43 - major documentation improvements.
44 - very minor bugfixes.
45 - add aio_nop for dummy requests.
46 - add aio_busy mainly for benchmarking and debugging.
47 - use "fast" mutexes on linux.
48 - use dynamic (and larger) buffers instead of
49 putting them onto the stack.
50 - optimise x86 and amd64 a bit.
51 - better error checking when ENOMEM.
52 - hopefully fix mem and dirp leaks on fork.
53 - warn about broken perl malloc.
54 - compiles on cygwin (but pread is broken on cygwin
55 which is not detected by autoconf, so you have to
56 edit autoconf/config.h yourself to enable emulation).
57
581.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
59 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.

611.73 Wed Mar 1 22:49:32 CET 2006
62 - codename "jost"
63 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
64 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
65 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
66
671.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
68 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
69 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
70
711.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
72 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
73 in a runtime error.
74
751.7 Mon Dec 26 19:29:48 CET 2005
76 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
77 - added AnyEvent example.
78
791.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
80 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
81 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
82 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
83 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
84 wasting memory).
