3TODO: ev_loop_wakeup 3 - ANDROID => __ANDROID__ (reported by enh@google.com).
4TODO: EV_STANDALONE == NO_HASSEL (do not use clock_gettime in ev_standalone) 4 - disable epoll_create1 on android because it has broken header files
5TODO: faq, process a thing in each iteration 5 and google is unwilling to fix them (reported by enh@google.com).
6TODO: dbeugging tips, ev_verify, ev_init twice

9TODO: document the special problem of signals around fork.
10TODO: store pid for each signal
11TODO: document file descriptor usage per loop
12TODO: store loop pid_t and compare isndie signal handler,store 1 for same, 2 for differign pid, clean up in loop_fork
13TODO: embed watchers need updating when fd changes
14TODO: document portbaility requirements for atomic pointer access
15TODO: possible cb aliasing?

8 - bump version to 4.24, as the release tarball inexplicably
9 didn't have the right version in ev.h, even though the cvs-tagged
10 version did have the right one (reported by Ales Teska).

124.23 Wed Nov 16 18:23:41 CET 2016
13 - move some declarations at the beginning to help certain retarded
14 microsoft compilers, even though their documentation claims
15 otherwise (reported by Ruslan Osmanov).

18 - when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild
19 only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid
20 SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork,
21 so document what needs to be done in ev_loop_fork
22 (analyzed by Benjamin Mahler).
23 - remove superfluous sys/timeb.h include on win32
24 (analyzed by Jason Madden).
25 - updated libecb.

28 - prefer noexcept over throw () with C++ 11.
29 - update ecb.h due to incompatibilities with c11.
30 - fix a potential aliasing issue when reading and writing
31 watcher callbacks.

334.19 Thu Sep 25 08:18:25 CEST 2014
34 - ev.h wasn't valid C++ anymore, which tripped compilers other than
35 clang, msvc or gcc (analyzed by Raphael 'kena' Poss). Unfortunately,
36 C++ doesn't support typedefs for function pointers fully, so the affected
37 declarations have to spell out the types each time.
38 - when not using autoconf, tighten the check for clock_gettime and related
39 functionality.

414.18 Fri Sep 5 17:55:26 CEST 2014
42 - events on files were not always generated properly with the
43 epoll backend (testcase by Assaf Inbal).
17 - mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin). 44 - mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin).
18 - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat). 45 - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat).
19 - use a reasonable fallback for EV_NSIG instead of erroring out 46 - use a reasonable fallback for EV_NSIG instead of erroring out
20 when we can't detect the signal set size. 47 when we can't detect the signal set size.
21 - in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall 48 - in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall
22 on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems 49 on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems
23 doing clock_gettime in userspace). 50 doing clock_gettime in userspace).
24 - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible 51 - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible
25 loop callbacks (not watcher callbacks yet). 52 loop callbacks (not watcher callbacks yet).
53 - (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being
54 broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble).

28 - destroying a non-default loop would stop the global waitpid 57 - destroying a non-default loop would stop the global waitpid
