3 TODO: maybe add mincore support? available on at least darwin, solaris, linux, freebsd
4 TODO: openbsd requires stdint.h for intptr_t - why posix?
5
6 TODO: make mtouch/readdir maybe others cancellable in-request
7 TODO: fadvise request
8 1.0
9 - fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
10 a timeout occured at the same time.
11 - use nonstandard but maybe-working-on-bsd fork technique.
12 - fix a path-memory-leak in readdir when using the wrappers
13 (reported by Thomas L. Shinnick).
14 - support a max_idle value of 0.
15 - support setting of idle timeout value (eio_set_idle_timeout).
16 - readdir: correctly handle malloc failures.
17 - readdir: new flags argument, can return inode
18 and possibly filetype, can sort in various ways.
19 - readdir: stop immediately when cancelled, do
20 not continue reading the directory.
21 - fix return value of eio_sendfile_sync.
22 - include sys/mman.h for msync.
23 - added EIO_STACKSIZE.
24 - added msync, mtouch support (untested).
25 - added sync_file_range (untested).
26 - fixed custom support.
27 - use a more robust feed-add detection method.
28 - "outbundled" from IO::AIO.
29 - eio_set_max_polltime did not properly convert time to ticks.
30 - tentatively support darwin in sendfile.
31 - fix freebsd/darwin sendfile.
32 - also use sendfile emulation for ENOTSUP and EOPNOTSUPP
33 error codes.
34 - add OS-independent EIO_MT_* and EIO_MS_* flag enums.
35 - add eio_statvfs/eio_fstatvfs.
36 - add eio_mlock/eio_mlockall and OS-independent MCL_* flag enums.
37 - 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 - "fix" demo.c so that it works as non-root.
40 - suppoert utimes seperately from futimes, as some systems have
41 utimes but not futimes.
42 - use _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE for mlock.
43 - do not (errornously) overwrite CFLAGS in configure.ac.
44 - mknod used int3 for dev_t (ยง2 bit), not offs (64 bit).
45 - fix memory corruption in eio_readdirx for the flags
46 combination EIO_READDIR_STAT_ORDER | EIO_READDIR_DIRS_FIRST.
47 - port to openbsd (another blatantly broken non-UNIX/POSIX platform).
48 - fix eio_custom prototype.
49 - 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 - use libecb, and apply lots of minor space optimisations.
53 - disable sendfile on darwin, broken as everything else.
54 - add realpath request and implementation.
55 - cancelled requests will still invoke their request callbacks.
56 - add fallocate.
