4 |
|
|
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: EV_THROW was renamed to EV_NOEXCEPT |
5 |
root |
1.323 |
(EV_THROW still provided) and now uses noexcept on C++11 or newer. |
6 |
root |
1.320 |
- move the darwin select workaround highe rin ev.c, as newer versions of |
7 |
root |
1.316 |
darwin managed to break their broken select even more. |
8 |
root |
1.314 |
- ANDROID => __ANDROID__ (reported by enh@google.com). |
9 |
root |
1.315 |
- disable epoll_create1 on android because it has broken header files |
10 |
|
|
and google is unwilling to fix them (reported by enh@google.com). |
11 |
root |
1.317 |
- avoid a minor compilation warning on win32. |
12 |
root |
1.318 |
- c++: remove deprecated dynamic throw() specifications. |
13 |
|
|
- c++: improve the (unsupported) bad_loop exception class. |
14 |
root |
1.319 |
- backport perl ev_periodic example to C, untested. |
15 |
root |
1.321 |
- update libecb, biggets change is to include a memory fence |
16 |
|
|
in ECB_MEMORY_FENCE_RELEASE on x86/amd64. |
17 |
root |
1.322 |
- minor autoconf/automake modernisation. |

|
19 |
root |
1.313 |
4.24 Wed Dec 28 05:19:55 CET 2016 |
20 |
|
|
- bump version to 4.24, as the release tarball inexplicably |
21 |
|
|
didn't have the right version in ev.h, even though the cvs-tagged |
22 |
|
|
version did have the right one (reported by Ales Teska). |
23 |

root |
1.312 |
4.23 Wed Nov 16 18:23:41 CET 2016 |
25 |
root |
1.311 |
- move some declarations at the beginning to help certain retarded |
26 |
|
|
microsoft compilers, even though their documentation claims |
27 |
|
|
otherwise (reported by Ruslan Osmanov). |

4.22 Sun Dec 20 22:11:50 CET 2015 |

root |
1.308 |
- when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild |
31 |
|
|
only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid |
32 |
|
|
SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork, |
33 |
|
|
so document what needs to be done in ev_loop_fork |
34 |
|
|
(analyzed by Benjamin Mahler). |
35 |
|
|
- remove superfluous sys/timeb.h include on win32 |
36 |
|
|
(analyzed by Jason Madden). |
37 |
root |
1.309 |
- updated libecb. |

4.20 Sat Jun 20 13:01:43 CEST 2015 |
40 |
root |
1.302 |
- prefer noexcept over throw () with C++ 11. |
41 |
root |
1.303 |
- update ecb.h due to incompatibilities with c11. |
42 |
root |
1.305 |
- fix a potential aliasing issue when reading and writing |
43 |
root |
1.304 |
watcher callbacks. |

4.19 Thu Sep 25 08:18:25 CEST 2014 |
46 |
root |
1.298 |
- ev.h wasn't valid C++ anymore, which tripped compilers other than |
47 |
root |
1.299 |
clang, msvc or gcc (analyzed by Raphael 'kena' Poss). Unfortunately, |
48 |
|
|
C++ doesn't support typedefs for function pointers fully, so the affected |
49 |
|
|
declarations have to spell out the types each time. |
50 |
root |
1.297 |
- when not using autoconf, tighten the check for clock_gettime and related |
51 |
|
|
functionality. |
52 |
|
|
|
53 |
root |
1.296 |
4.18 Fri Sep 5 17:55:26 CEST 2014 |
54 |
root |
1.295 |
- events on files were not always generated properly with the |
55 |
|
|
epoll backend (testcase by Assaf Inbal). |
56 |
root |
1.288 |
- mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin). |
57 |
root |
1.289 |
- (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat). |
58 |
root |
1.291 |
- use a reasonable fallback for EV_NSIG instead of erroring out |
59 |
|
|
when we can't detect the signal set size. |
60 |
root |
1.292 |
- in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall |
61 |
|
|
on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems |
62 |
|
|
doing clock_gettime in userspace). |
63 |
root |
1.293 |
- ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible |
64 |
|
|
loop callbacks (not watcher callbacks yet). |
65 |
root |
1.294 |
- (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being |
66 |
|
|
broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble). |

1.287 |
4.15 Fri Mar 1 12:04:50 CET 2013 |
69 |
root |
1.271 |
- destroying a non-default loop would stop the global waitpid |
70 |
|
|
watcher (Denis Bilenko). |
71 |
root |
1.266 |
- queueing pending watchers of higher priority from a watcher now invokes |
72 |
|
|
them in a timely fashion (reported by Denis Bilenko). |
73 |
root |
1.261 |
- add throw() to all libev functions that cannot throw exceptions, for |
74 |
|
|
further code size decrease when compiling for C++. |
75 |
|
|
- add throw () to callbacks that must not throw exceptions (allocator, |
76 |
|
|
syserr, loop acquire/release, periodic reschedule cbs). |
77 |
root |
1.256 |
- fix event_base_loop return code, add event_get_callback, event_base_new, |
78 |
|
|
event_base_get_method calls to improve libevent 1.x emulation and add |
79 |
root |
1.273 |
some libevent 2.x functionality (based on a patch by Jeff Davey). |
80 |
root |
1.263 |
- add more memory fences to fix a bug reported by Jeff Davey. Better |
81 |
|
|
be overfenced than underprotected. |
82 |
root |
1.256 |
- ev_run now returns a boolean status (true meaning watchers are |
83 |
|
|
still active). |
84 |
root |
1.252 |
- ev_once: undef EV_ERROR in ev_kqueue.c, to avoid clashing with |
85 |
|
|
libev's EV_ERROR (reported by 191919). |
86 |
root |
1.253 |
- (ecb) add memory fence support for xlC (Darin McBride). |
87 |
|
|
- (ecb) add memory fence support for gcc-mips (Anton Kirilov). |
88 |
root |
1.259 |
- (ecb) add memory fence support for gcc-alpha (Christian Weisgerber). |
89 |
root |
1.254 |
- work around some kernels losing file descriptors by leaking |
90 |
|
|
the kqueue descriptor in the child. |
91 |
root |
1.282 |
- work around linux inotify not reporting IN_ATTRIB changes for directories |
92 |
|
|
in many cases. |
93 |
root |
1.262 |
- include sys/syscall.h instead of plain syscall.h. |
94 |
root |
1.268 |
- check for io watcher loops in ev_verify, check for the most |
95 |
|
|
common reported usage bug in ev_io_start. |
96 |
sf-exg |
1.286 |
- choose socket vs. WSASocket at compiletime using EV_USE_WSASOCKET. |
97 |
root |
1.270 |
- always use WSASend/WSARecv directly on windows, hoping that this |
98 |
|
|
works in all cases (unlike read/write/send/recv...). |
99 |
root |
1.274 |
- try to detect signals around a fork faster (test program by |
100 |
|
|
Denis Bilenko). |
101 |
root |
1.275 |
- work around recent glibc versions that leak memory in realloc. |
102 |
root |
1.276 |
- rename ev::embed::set to ev::embed::set_embed to avoid clashing |
103 |
|
|
the watcher base set (loop) method. |
104 |
root |
1.278 |
- rewrite the async/signal pipe logic to always keep a valid fd, which |
105 |
sf-exg |
1.286 |
simplifies (and hopefully correctifies :) the race checking |
106 |
root |
1.278 |
on fork, at the cost of one extra fd. |
107 |
root |
1.282 |
- add fat, msdos, jffs2, ramfs, ntfs and btrfs to the list of |
108 |
|
|
inotify-supporting filesystems. |
109 |
root |
1.283 |
- move orig_CFLAGS assignment to after AC_INIT, as newer autoconf |
110 |
|
|
versions ignore it before |
111 |
|
|
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=908096). |
112 |
root |
1.284 |
- add some untested android support. |
113 |
root |
1.285 |
- enum expressions must be of type int (reported by Juan Pablo L). |
114 |
root |
1.253 |

root |
1.250 |
4.11 Sat Feb 4 19:52:39 CET 2012 |
116 |
root |
1.248 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: ev_timer_again now clears the pending status, as |
117 |
|
|
was documented already, but not implemented in the repeating case. |
118 |
root |
1.249 |
- new compiletime symbols: EV_NO_SMP and EV_NO_THREADS. |
119 |
root |
1.234 |
- fix a race where the workaround against the epoll fork bugs |
120 |
|
|
caused signals to not be handled anymore. |
121 |
root |
1.229 |
- correct backend_fudge for most backends, and implement a windows |
122 |
|
|
specific workaround to avoid looping because we call both |
123 |
|
|
select and Sleep, both with different time resolutions. |
124 |
root |
1.230 |
- document range and guarantees of ev_sleep. |
125 |
root |
1.231 |
- document reasonable ranges for periodics interval and offset. |
126 |
|
|
- rename backend_fudge to backend_mintime to avoid future confusion :) |
127 |
root |
1.225 |
- change the default periodic reschedule function to hopefully be more |
128 |
root |
1.226 |
exact and correct even in corner cases or in the far future. |
129 |
root |
1.225 |
- do not rely on -lm anymore: use it when available but use our |
130 |
root |
1.230 |
own floor () if it is missing. This should make it easier to embed, |
131 |
|
|
as no external libraries are required. |
132 |
root |
1.232 |
- strategically import macros from libecb and mark rarely-used functions |
133 |
sf-exg |
1.239 |
as cache-cold (saving almost 2k code size on typical amd64 setups). |
134 |
root |
1.237 |
- add Symbols.ev and Symbols.event files, that were missing. |
135 |
root |
1.242 |
- fix backend_mintime value for epoll (was 1/1024, is 1/1000 now). |
136 |
root |
1.244 |
- fix #3 "be smart about timeouts" to not "deadlock" when |
137 |
|
|
timeout == now, also improve the section overall. |
138 |
|
|
- avoid "AVOIDING FINISHING BEFORE RETURNING" idiom. |
139 |
root |
1.245 |
- support new EV_API_STATIC mode to make all libev symbols |
140 |
|
|
static. |
141 |
root |
1.251 |
- supply default CFLAGS of -g -O3 with gcc when original CFLAGS |
142 |
|
|
were empty. |
143 |
root |
1.225 |
|
144 |
root |
1.224 |
4.04 Wed Feb 16 09:01:51 CET 2011 |
145 |
|
|
- fix two problems in the native win32 backend, where reuse of fd's |
146 |
|
|
with different underlying handles caused handles not to be removed |
147 |
|
|
or added to the select set (analyzed and tested by Bert Belder). |
148 |
root |
1.221 |
- do no rely on ceil() in ev_e?poll.c. |
149 |
root |
1.222 |
- backport libev to HP-UX versions before 11 v3. |
150 |
root |
1.223 |
- configure did not detect nanosleep and clock_gettime properly when |
151 |
|
|
they are available in the libc (as opposed to -lrt). |
152 |
root |
1.221 |
|
153 |
root |
1.219 |
4.03 Tue Jan 11 14:37:25 CET 2011 |
154 |
root |
1.217 |
- officially support polling files with all backends. |
155 |
root |
1.212 |
- support files, /dev/zero etc. the same way as select in the epoll |
156 |
|
|
backend, by generating events on our own. |
157 |
root |
1.217 |
- ports backend: work around solaris bug 6874410 and many related ones |
158 |
|
|
(EINTR, maybe more), with no performance loss (note that the solaris |
159 |
|
|
bug report is actually wrong, reality is far more bizarre and broken |
160 |
|
|
than that). |
161 |
root |
1.209 |
- define EV_READ/EV_WRITE as macros in event.h, as some programs use |
162 |
|
|
#ifdef to test for them. |
163 |
root |
1.213 |
- new (experimental) function: ev_feed_signal. |
164 |
|
|
- new (to become default) EVFLAG_NOSIGMASK flag. |
165 |
|
|
- new EVBACKEND_MASK symbol. |
166 |
root |
1.220 |
- updated COMMON IDIOMS SECTION. |
167 |
root |
1.209 |

168 |
root |
1.207 |
4.01 Fri Nov 5 21:51:29 CET 2010 |
169 |
root |
1.205 |
- automake fucked it up, apparently, --add-missing -f is not quite enough |
170 |
root |
1.206 |
to make it update its files, so 4.00 didn't install ev++.h and |
171 |
|
|
event.h on make install. grrr. |
172 |
|
|
- ev_loop(count|depth) didn't return anything (Robin Haberkorn). |
173 |
root |
1.203 |
- change EV_UNDEF to 0xffffffff to silence some overzealous compilers. |
174 |
root |
1.204 |
- use "(libev) " prefix for all libev error messages now. |
175 |
root |
1.203 |

root |
1.202 |
4.00 Mon Oct 25 12:32:12 CEST 2010 |
177 |
root |
1.171 |
- "PORTING FROM LIBEV 3.X TO 4.X" (in ev.pod) is recommended reading. |
178 |
root |
1.161 |
- ev_embed_stop did not correctly stop the watcher (very good |
179 |
|
|
testcase by Vladimir Timofeev). |
180 |
sf-exg |
1.191 |
- ev_run will now always update the current loop time - it erroneously |
181 |
root |
1.187 |
didn't when idle watchers were active, causing timers not to fire. |
182 |
root |
1.179 |
- fix a bug where a timeout of zero caused the timer not to fire |
183 |
|
|
in the libevent emulation (testcase by Péter Szabó). |
184 |
root |
1.164 |
- applied win32 fixes by Michael Lenaghan (also James Mansion). |
185 |
root |
1.166 |
- replace EV_MINIMAL by EV_FEATURES. |
186 |
root |
1.178 |
- prefer EPOLL_CTL_ADD over EPOLL_CTL_MOD in some more cases, as it |
187 |
|
|
seems the former is *much* faster than the latter. |
188 |
root |
1.197 |
- linux kernel version detection (for inotify bug workarounds) |
189 |
|
|
did not work properly. |
190 |
root |
1.185 |
- reduce the number of spurious wake-ups with the ports backend. |
191 |
root |
1.158 |
- remove dependency on sys/queue.h on freebsd (patch by Vanilla Hsu). |
192 |
root |
1.186 |
- do async init within ev_async_start, not ev_async_set, which avoids |
193 |
|
|
an API quirk where the set function must be called in the C++ API |
194 |
|
|
even when there is nothing to set. |
195 |
root |
1.174 |
- add (undocumented) EV_ENABLE when adding events with kqueue, |
196 |
root |
1.175 |
this might help with OS X, which seems to need it despite documenting |
197 |
|
|
not to need it (helpfully pointed out by Tilghman Lesher). |
198 |
root |
1.176 |
- do not use poll by default on freebsd, it's broken (what isn't |
199 |
|
|
on freebsd...). |
200 |
root |
1.195 |
- allow to embed epoll on kernels >= 2.6.32. |
201 |
root |
1.159 |
- configure now prepends -O3, not appends it, so one can still |
202 |
|
|
override it. |
203 |
root |
1.190 |
- ev.pod: greatly expanded the portability section, added a porting |
204 |
|
|
section, a description of watcher states and made lots of minor fixes. |
205 |
root |
1.160 |
- disable poll backend on AIX, the poll header spams the namespace |
206 |
|
|
and it's not worth working around dead platforms (reported |
207 |
|
|
and analyzed by Aivars Kalvans). |
208 |
root |
1.162 |
- improve header file compatibility of the standalone eventfd code |
209 |
|
|
in an obscure case. |
210 |
root |
1.163 |
- implement EV_AVOID_STDIO option. |
211 |
|
|
- do not use sscanf to parse linux version number (smaller, faster, |
212 |
|
|
no sscanf dependency). |
213 |
root |
1.164 |
- new EV_CHILD_ENABLE and EV_SIGNAL_ENABLE configurable settings. |
214 |
sf-exg |
1.172 |
- update libev.m4 HAVE_CLOCK_SYSCALL test for newer glibcs. |
215 |
root |
1.165 |
- add section on accept() problems to the manpage. |
216 |
root |
1.168 |
- rename EV_TIMEOUT to EV_TIMER. |
217 |
root |
1.190 |
- rename ev_loop_count/depth/verify/loop/unloop. |
218 |
root |
1.197 |
- remove ev_default_destroy and ev_default_fork. |
219 |
root |
1.168 |
- switch to two-digit minor version. |
220 |
root |
1.180 |
- work around an apparent gentoo compiler bug. |
221 |
root |
1.181 |
- define _DARWIN_UNLIMITED_SELECT. just so. |
222 |
root |
1.188 |
- use enum instead of #define for most constants. |
223 |
|
|
- improve compatibility to older C++ compilers. |
224 |
root |
1.193 |
- (experimental) ev_run/ev_default_loop/ev_break/ev_loop_new have now |
225 |
|
|
default arguments when compiled as C++. |
226 |
root |
1.196 |
- enable automake dependency tracking. |
227 |
root |
1.197 |
- ev_loop_new no longer leaks memory when loop creation failed. |
228 |
root |
1.198 |
- new ev_cleanup watcher type. |
229 |
root |
1.157 |

root |
1.156 |
3.9 Thu Dec 31 07:59:59 CET 2009 |
231 |
root |
1.155 |
- signalfd is no longer used by default and has to be requested |
232 |
|
|
explicitly - this means that easy to catch bugs become hard to |
233 |
|
|
catch race conditions, but the users have spoken. |
234 |
|
|
- point out the unspecified signal mask in the documentation, and |
235 |
|
|
that this is a race condition regardless of EV_SIGNALFD. |
236 |
root |
1.142 |
- backport inotify code to C89. |
237 |
root |
1.148 |
- inotify file descriptors could leak into child processes. |
238 |
sf-exg |
1.241 |
- ev_stat watchers could keep an erroneous extra ref on the loop, |
239 |
root |
1.151 |
preventing exit when unregistering all watchers (testcases |
240 |
root |
1.150 |
provided by ry@tinyclouds.org). |
241 |
root |
1.143 |
- implement EV_WIN32_HANDLE_TO_FD and EV_WIN32_CLOSE_FD configuration |
242 |
root |
1.145 |
symbols to make it easier for apps to do their own fd management. |
243 |
root |
1.144 |
- support EV_IDLE_ENABLE being disabled in ev++.h |
244 |
|
|
(patch by Didier Spezia). |
245 |
root |

libev's socketpair emulation, which makes denial-of-service |

it even works under vista, which thinks that getpeer/sockname |

a direct syscall - slower, but no dependency on librt et al. |

a 32-bit generation counter. recreate kernel state if we receive |
