61.0 91.0
10 - fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
11 a timeout occured at the same time.
12 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
13 - use fewer time() syscalls when waiting for new requests.
14 - fix a path-memory-leak in readdir when using the wrappers
15 (reported by Thomas L. Shinnick).
16 - support a max_idle value of 0.
17 - support setting of idle timeout value (eio_set_idle_timeout).
7 - readdir: correctly handle malloc failures. 18 - readdir: correctly handle malloc failures.
8 - readdir: new flags argument, can return inode 19 - readdir: new flags argument, can return inode
9 and possibly filetype, can sort in various ways. 20 and possibly filetype, can sort in various ways.
10 - readdir: stop immediately when cancelled, do 21 - readdir: stop immediately when cancelled, do
11 not continue reading the directory. 22 not continue reading the directory.
26 - add eio_statvfs/eio_fstatvfs. 37 - add eio_statvfs/eio_fstatvfs.
27 - add eio_mlock/eio_mlockall and OS-independent MCL_* flag enums. 38 - add eio_mlock/eio_mlockall and OS-independent MCL_* flag enums.
28 - no longer set errno to 0 before making syscalls, this only lures 39 - no longer set errno to 0 before making syscalls, this only lures
29 people into the trap of believing errno shows success or failure. 40 people into the trap of believing errno shows success or failure.
30 - "fix" demo.c so that it works as non-root. 41 - "fix" demo.c so that it works as non-root.
42 - suppoert utimes seperately from futimes, as some systems have
43 utimes but not futimes.
44 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE for mlock.
45 - do not (errornously) overwrite CFLAGS in configure.ac.
46 - mknod used int3 for dev_t (ยง2 bit), not offs (64 bit).
47 - fix memory corruption in eio_readdirx for the flags
48 combination EIO_READDIR_STAT_ORDER | EIO_READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
49 - port to openbsd (another blatantly broken non-UNIX/POSIX platform).
50 - fix eio_custom prototype.
51 - work around a Linux (and likely FreeBSD and other kernels) bug
52 where sendfile would not transfer all the requested bytes on
53 large transfers, using a heuristic.
54 - use libecb, and apply lots of minor space optimisations.
55 - disable sendfile on darwin, broken as everything else.
56 - add realpath request and implementation.
57 - cancelled requests will still invoke their request callbacks.
58 - add fallocate.
59 - do not acquire any locks when forking.
60 - incorporated some mingw32 changes by traviscline.
61 - added syncfs support, using direct syscall.
62 - set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
63 - remove useless use of volatile variables.
64 - fix memory leak when reaping threads.
65 - use utime now uses nanosecond resolution on posix 2008 systems.
66 - allow taking advantage of posix 2008 xxxat functions and fdopendir
67 by implementing a working directory abstraction.
