2 2
3TODO: ev_loop_wakeup 3TODO: revisit 59.x timer in the light of mdoenr powersaving
4TODO: EV_STANDALONE == NO_HASSEL (do not use clock_gettime in ev_standalone) 4 - linuxaio backend might have tried to cancel an iocb
5TODO: faq, process a thing in each iteration 5 multiple times (was unable to trigger this).
6TODO: dbeugging tips, ev_verify, ev_init twice 6 - io_cancel can return EINTR, deal with it. also, assume
7TODO: ev_break for immediate exit (EVBREAK_NOW?) 7 io_asubmit also retursn EINTR.
8TODO: ev_feed_child_event 8
9TODO: document the special problem of signals around fork. 94.27 Thu Jun 27 22:43:44 CEST 2019
10TODO: store pid for each signal 10 - linux aio backend almost completely rewritten to work around its
11TODO: document file descriptor usage per loop 11 limitations.
12TODO: store loop pid_t and compare isndie signal handler,store 1 for same, 2 for differign pid, clean up in loop_fork 12 - linux aio backend now requires linux 4.19+.
13TODO: embed watchers need updating when fd changes 13 - epoll backend now mandatory for linux aio backend.
14TODO: document portability requirements for atomic pointer access 14 - fail assertions more aggressively on invalid fd's detected
15TODO: document requirements for function pointers and calling conventions. 15 in the event loop, do not just silently fd_kill in case of
16 user error.
17 - ev_io_start/ev_io_stop now verify the watcher fd using
18 a syscall when EV_VERIFY is 2 or higher.
19
204.26 (EV only)
21 - update to libecb 0x00010006.
22 - new experimental linux aio backend (linux 4.18+).
23 - removed redundant 0-ptr check in ev_once.
24 - updated/extended ev_set_allocator documentation.
25 - replaced EMPTY2 macro by array_needsize_noinit.
26 - minor code cleanups.
27 - epoll backend now uses epoll_create1 also after fork.

294.25 Fri Dec 21 07:49:20 CET 2018
30 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: EV_THROW was renamed to EV_NOEXCEPT
31 (EV_THROW still provided) and now uses noexcept on C++11 or newer.
32 - move the darwin select workaround highe rin ev.c, as newer versions of
33 darwin managed to break their broken select even more.
34 - ANDROID => __ANDROID__ (reported by enh@google.com).
35 - disable epoll_create1 on android because it has broken header files
36 and google is unwilling to fix them (reported by enh@google.com).
37 - avoid a minor compilation warning on win32.
38 - c++: remove deprecated dynamic throw() specifications.
39 - c++: improve the (unsupported) bad_loop exception class.
40 - backport perl ev_periodic example to C, untested.
41 - update libecb, biggets change is to include a memory fence
42 in ECB_MEMORY_FENCE_RELEASE on x86/amd64.
43 - minor autoconf/automake modernisation.
44
454.24 Wed Dec 28 05:19:55 CET 2016
46 - bump version to 4.24, as the release tarball inexplicably
47 didn't have the right version in ev.h, even though the cvs-tagged
48 version did have the right one (reported by Ales Teska).
49
504.23 Wed Nov 16 18:23:41 CET 2016
51 - move some declarations at the beginning to help certain retarded
52 microsoft compilers, even though their documentation claims
53 otherwise (reported by Ruslan Osmanov).

174.22 Sun Dec 20 22:11:50 CET 2015 554.22 Sun Dec 20 22:11:50 CET 2015
18 - when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild 56 - when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild
19 only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid 57 only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid
20 SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork, 58 SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork,
