8 | - fix a race where the workaround against the epoll fork bugs |
|
|

|
|
10 | - correct backend_fudge for most backends, and implement a windows |
|

11 | specific workaround to avoid looping because we call both |
|
|
12 | select and Sleep, both with different time resolutions. |
|

|
21 | - strategically import macros from libecb and mark rarely-used functions |
|
|
22 | as cache-cold (saving almost 2k code size on typical amd64 setups). |
|
|
23 | - add Symbols.ev and Symbols.event files, that were missing. |
|
|
24 | - fix backend_mintime value for epoll (was 1/1024, is 1/1000 now). |
|
|
25 | - fix #3 "be smart about timeouts" to not "deadlock" when |
|
|
26 | timeout == now, also improve the section overall. |
|
|
27 | - avoid "AVOIDING FINISHING BEFORE RETURNING" idiom. |
|
|
28 | - support new EV_API_STATIC mode to make all libev symbols |
