51.0 81.0
9 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
10 - support a max_idle value of 0.
11 - support setting of idle timeout value (eio_set_idle_timeout).
12 - readdir: correctly handle malloc failures.
13 - readdir: new flags argument, can return inode
14 and possibly filetype, can sort in various ways.
15 - readdir: stop immediately when cancelled, do
16 not continue reading the directory.
17 - fix return value of eio_sendfile_sync.
18 - include sys/mman.h for msync.
19 - added EIO_STACKSIZE.
6 - added msync, mtouch support (untested). 20 - added msync, mtouch support (untested).
21 - added sync_file_range (untested).
7 - fixed custom support. 22 - fixed custom support.
23 - use a more robust feed-add detection method.
8 - "outbundled" from IO::AIO. 24 - "outbundled" from IO::AIO.
9 25 - eio_set_max_polltime did not properly convert time to ticks.
26 - tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
27 - fix freebsd/darwin sendfile.
28 - also use sendfile emulation for ENOTSUP and EOPNOTSUPP
29 error codes.
30 - add OS-independent EIO_MT_* and EIO_MS_* flag enums.
31 - add eio_statvfs/eio_fstatvfs.
32 - add eio_mlock/eio_mlockall and OS-independent MCL_* flag enums.
33 - no longer set errno to 0 before making syscalls, this only lures
34 people into the trap of believing errno shows success or failure.
35 - "fix" demo.c so that it works as non-root.
36 - suppoert utimes seperately from futimes, as some systems have
37 utimes but not futimes.
38 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE for mlock.
39 - do not (errornously) overwrite CFLAGS in configure.ac.
40 - mknod used int3 for dev_t (ยง2 bit), not offs (64 bit).
41 - fix memory corruption in eio_readdirx for the flags
42 combination EIO_READDIR_STAT_ORDER | EIO_READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
43 - port to openbsd (another blatantly broken non-UNIX/POSIX platform).
44 - fix eio_custom prototype.
45 - work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other kernels) bug
46 where sendfile would not transfer all the requested bytes on
47 large transfers, using a heuristic.
