5 - further optimise away the EPOLL_CTL_ADD/MOD combo in the epoll
6 backend by assuming the kernel event mask hasn't changed if
7 ADD fails with EEXIST.
8 - use memset to initialise most arrays now and do away with the
9 init functions.
10 - expand time-out strategies into a "Be smart about timeouts" section.
11 - drop the "struct" from all ev_watcher declarations in the
12 documentation and did other clarifications (yeah, it was a mistake
13 to have a struct AND a function called ev_loop).
14 - fix a bug where ev_default would not initialise the default
15 loop again after it was destroyed with ev_default_destroy.

18 - disable inotify usage on linux <2.6.25, as it is broken
19 (reported by Yoann Vandoorselaere).
20 - ev_stat errornously would try to add inotify watchers
21 even when inotify wasn't available (this should only
22 have a performance impact).
23 - ev_once now passes both timeout and io to the callback if both
24 occur concurrently, instead of giving timeouts precedence.
25 - disable EV_USE_INOTIFY when sys/inotify.h is too old.
26
273.44 Mon Sep 29 05:18:39 CEST 2008
28 - embed watchers now automatically invoke ev_loop_fork on the
29 embedded loop when the parent loop forks.
30 - new function: ev_now_update (loop).
31 - verify_watcher was not marked static.
32 - improve the "associating..." manpage section.
33 - documentation tweaks here and there.

353.43 Sun Jul 6 05:34:41 CEST 2008
36 - include more include files on windows to get struct _stati64
37 (reported by Chris Hulbert, but doesn't quite fix his issue).
38 - add missing #include <io.h> in ev.c on windows (reported by
39 Matt Tolton).

413.42 Tue Jun 17 12:12:07 CEST 2008
42 - work around yet another windows bug: FD_SET actually adds fd's
43 multiple times to the fd_*SET*, despite official MSN docs claiming
44 otherwise. Reported and well-analysed by Matt Tolton.
45 - define NFDBITS to 0 when EV_SELECT_IS_WINSOCKET to make it compile
46 (reported any analysed by Chris Hulbert).
47 - fix a bug in ev_ebadf (this function is only used to catch
48 programming errors in the libev user). reported by Matt Tolton.
49 - fix a bug in fd_intern on win32 (could lead to compile errors
50 under some circumstances, but would work correctly if it compiles).
51 reported by Matt Tolton.
52 - (try to) work around missing lstat on windows.
53 - pass in the write fd set as except fd set under windows. windows
54 is so uncontrollably lame that it requires this. this means that
55 switching off oobinline is not supported (but tcp/ip doesn't
56 have oob, so that would be stupid anyways.
57 - use posix module symbol to auto-detect monotonic clock presence
58 and some other default values.

603.41 Fri May 23 18:42:54 CEST 2008
61 - work around an obscure bug in winsocket select: if you
62 provide only empty fd sets then select returns WSAEINVAL. how sucky.
63 - improve timer scheduling stability and reduce use of time_epsilon.
4 - use 1-based 2-heap for EV_MINIMAL, simplifies code, reduces 64 - use 1-based 2-heap for EV_MINIMAL, simplifies code, reduces
5 codesize and makes for better cache-efficiency. 65 codesize and makes for better cache-efficiency.
6 - use 3-based 4-heap for !EV_MINIMAL. this makes better use 66 - use 3-based 4-heap for !EV_MINIMAL. this makes better use
7 of cpu cache lines and gives better growth behaviour than 67 of cpu cache lines and gives better growth behaviour than
8 2-based heaps. 68 2-based heaps.
12 - fix a potential aliasing issue in ev_timer_again. 72 - fix a potential aliasing issue in ev_timer_again.
13 - add/document ev_periodic_at, retract direct access to ->at. 73 - add/document ev_periodic_at, retract direct access to ->at.
14 - improve ev_stat docs. 74 - improve ev_stat docs.
15 - add portability requirements section. 75 - add portability requirements section.
16 - fix manpage headers etc. 76 - fix manpage headers etc.
77 - normalise WSA error codes to lower range on windows.
78 - add consistency check code that can be called automatically
79 or on demand to check for internal structures (ev_loop_verify).
