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 1.38 - use fewer time() syscalls when waiting for new requests.
13 root 1.31 - fix a path-memory-leak in readdir when using the wrappers
14     (reported by Thomas L. Shinnick).
15 root 1.24 - support a max_idle value of 0.
16 root 1.25 - support setting of idle timeout value (eio_set_idle_timeout).
17 root 1.7 - readdir: correctly handle malloc failures.
18     - readdir: new flags argument, can return inode
19     and possibly filetype, can sort in various ways.
20 root 1.8 - readdir: stop immediately when cancelled, do
21     not continue reading the directory.
22 root 1.9 - fix return value of eio_sendfile_sync.
23     - include sys/mman.h for msync.
24 root 1.5 - added EIO_STACKSIZE.
25 root 1.2 - added msync, mtouch support (untested).
26 root 1.4 - added sync_file_range (untested).
27 root 1.2 - fixed custom support.
28 root 1.3 - use a more robust feed-add detection method.
29 root 1.1 - "outbundled" from IO::AIO.
30 root 1.10 - eio_set_max_polltime did not properly convert time to ticks.
31 root 1.11 - tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
32 root 1.13 - fix freebsd/darwin sendfile.
33 root 1.12 - also use sendfile emulation for ENOTSUP and EOPNOTSUPP
34     error codes.
35     - add OS-independent EIO_MT_* and EIO_MS_* flag enums.
36 root 1.14 - add eio_statvfs/eio_fstatvfs.
37 root 1.16 - add eio_mlock/eio_mlockall and OS-independent MCL_* flag enums.
38 root 1.17 - no longer set errno to 0 before making syscalls, this only lures
39     people into the trap of believing errno shows success or failure.
40 root 1.18 - "fix" demo.c so that it works as non-root.
41 root 1.19 - suppoert utimes seperately from futimes, as some systems have
42     utimes but not futimes.
43 root 1.20 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE for mlock.
44 root 1.21 - do not (errornously) overwrite CFLAGS in configure.ac.
45 root 1.23 - mknod used int3 for dev_t (ยง2 bit), not offs (64 bit).
46 root 1.26 - fix memory corruption in eio_readdirx for the flags
47     combination EIO_READDIR_STAT_ORDER | EIO_READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
48 root 1.27 - port to openbsd (another blatantly broken non-UNIX/POSIX platform).
49 root 1.28 - fix eio_custom prototype.
50 root 1.29 - work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other kernels) bug
51     where sendfile would not transfer all the requested bytes on
52     large transfers, using a heuristic.
53 root 1.30 - use libecb, and apply lots of minor space optimisations.
54 root 1.32 - disable sendfile on darwin, broken as everything else.
55 root 1.34 - add realpath request and implementation.
56 root 1.35 - cancelled requests will still invoke their request callbacks.
57 root 1.36 - add fallocate.
58 root 1.38 - do not acquire any locks when forking.
59 root 1.39 - incorporated some mingw32 changes by traviscline.
60     - added syncfs support, using direct syscall.
61 root 1.32
