9 | - the 4.31 timerfd code wrongly changes the priority of the signal |
|
|
10 | fd watcher, which is usually harmless unless signal fds are |
|
|
11 | also used (found via cpan tester service). |
|
|
12 | - the documentation wrongly claimed that user may modify fd and events |
|
|
13 | members in io watchers when the wqatcher was stopped |
|
|
14 | (found by b_jonas). |
|
|
15 | - new ev_io_modify mutator which changes only the events member, |
|
|
16 | which cna be faster. |
|
|
17 | - do not wake up every minute when timerfd is used to detect timejumps. |
|
|
18 | - support a lot more "uncommon" compile time configurations, |
|
|
19 | such as ev_embed enabled but ev_timer disabled. |
|
|
20 | - the linux aio backend is no longer compiled in by default. |
|
|
21 | - update to libecb version 0x00010008. |
