1 root 1.1 Revision history for libeio
2    
3 root 1.12 TODO: maybe add mincore support? available on at least darwin, solaris, linux, freebsd
4 root 1.22 TODO: openbsd requires stdint.h for intptr_t - why posix?
5 root 1.2
6 root 1.27 TODO: make mtouch/readdir maybe others cancellable in-request
7     TODO: fadvise request
8 root 1.1 1.0
9 root 1.37 - fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
10     a timeout occured at the same time.
11 root 1.24 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
12 root 1.31 - fix a path-memory-leak in readdir when using the wrappers
13     (reported by Thomas L. Shinnick).
14 root 1.24 - support a max_idle value of 0.
15 root 1.25 - support setting of idle timeout value (eio_set_idle_timeout).
16 root 1.7 - readdir: correctly handle malloc failures.
17     - readdir: new flags argument, can return inode
18     and possibly filetype, can sort in various ways.
19 root 1.8 - readdir: stop immediately when cancelled, do
20     not continue reading the directory.
21 root 1.9 - fix return value of eio_sendfile_sync.
22     - include sys/mman.h for msync.
23 root 1.5 - added EIO_STACKSIZE.
24 root 1.2 - added msync, mtouch support (untested).
25 root 1.4 - added sync_file_range (untested).
26 root 1.2 - fixed custom support.
27 root 1.3 - use a more robust feed-add detection method.
28 root 1.1 - "outbundled" from IO::AIO.
29 root 1.10 - eio_set_max_polltime did not properly convert time to ticks.
30 root 1.11 - tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
31 root 1.13 - fix freebsd/darwin sendfile.
32 root 1.12 - also use sendfile emulation for ENOTSUP and EOPNOTSUPP
33     error codes.
34     - add OS-independent EIO_MT_* and EIO_MS_* flag enums.
35 root 1.14 - add eio_statvfs/eio_fstatvfs.
36 root 1.16 - add eio_mlock/eio_mlockall and OS-independent MCL_* flag enums.
37 root 1.17 - no longer set errno to 0 before making syscalls, this only lures
38     people into the trap of believing errno shows success or failure.
39 root 1.18 - "fix" demo.c so that it works as non-root.
40 root 1.19 - suppoert utimes seperately from futimes, as some systems have
41     utimes but not futimes.
42 root 1.20 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE for mlock.
43 root 1.21 - do not (errornously) overwrite CFLAGS in configure.ac.
44 root 1.23 - mknod used int3 for dev_t (ยง2 bit), not offs (64 bit).
45 root 1.26 - fix memory corruption in eio_readdirx for the flags
46     combination EIO_READDIR_STAT_ORDER | EIO_READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
47 root 1.27 - port to openbsd (another blatantly broken non-UNIX/POSIX platform).
48 root 1.28 - fix eio_custom prototype.
49 root 1.29 - work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other kernels) bug
50     where sendfile would not transfer all the requested bytes on
51     large transfers, using a heuristic.
52 root 1.30 - use libecb, and apply lots of minor space optimisations.
53 root 1.32 - disable sendfile on darwin, broken as everything else.
54 root 1.34 - add realpath request and implementation.
55 root 1.35 - cancelled requests will still invoke their request callbacks.
56 root 1.36 - add fallocate.
57 root 1.32
