3TODO: ev_walk
4
5 - ev_unloop and ev_loop wrongly used a global variable to exit loops,
6 instead of using a per-loop variable (bug caught by accident...).
7 - the ev_set_io_collect_interval interpretation has changed.
8 - add new functionality: ev_set_userdata, ev_userdata,
9 ev_set_invoke_pending_cb, ev_set_loop_release_cb,
10 ev_invoke_pending, together with a long example about thread
11 locking.
12 - add ev_timer_remaining (as requested by Denis F. Latypoff).
13 - add ev_loop_depth.
14 - calling ev_unloop in fork/prepare watchers will no longer poll
15 for new events.
16 - Denis F. Latypoff corrected many typos in example code snippets.
17 - honor autoconf detection of EV_USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL, also double-
18 check that the syscall number is available before trying to
19 use it (reported by ry@tinyclouds).
20 - use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime instead of _timeb on windows, for
21 slightly higher accuracy.
22 - properly declare ev_loop_verify and ev_now_update even when
23 !EV_MULTIPLICITY.
24 - do not compile in any priority code when EV_MAXPRI == EV_MINPRI.
25 - support EV_MINIMAL==2 for a reduced API.
26 - actually 0-initialise struct sigaction when installing signals.
27 - add section on hibernate and stopped processes to ev_timer docs.

30 - multiple timers becoming ready within an event loop iteration
31 will be invoked in the "correct" order now.
32 - do not leave the event loop early just because we have no active
33 watchers, fixing a problem when embedding a kqueue loop
34 that has active kernel events but no registered watchers
35 (reported by blacksand blacksand).
36 - correctly zero the idx values for arrays, so destroying and
37 reinitialising the default loop actually works (patch by
38 Malek Hadj-Ali).
39 - implement ev_suspend and ev_resume.
40 - new EV_CUSTOM revents flag for use by applications.
41 - add documentation section about priorites.
42 - add a glossary to the dcoumentation.
43 - extend the ev_fork description slightly.
44 - optimize a jump out of call_pending.

463.53 Sun Feb 15 02:38:20 CET 2009
47 - fix a bug in event pipe creation on win32 that would cause a
48 failed assertion on event loop creation (patch by Malek Hadj-Ali).
49 - probe for CLOCK_REALTIME support at runtime as well and fall
50 back to gettimeofday if there is an error, to support older
51 operating systems with newer header files/libraries.
52 - prefer gettimeofday over clock_gettime with USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL
53 (default most everywhere), otherwise not.

553.52 Wed Jan 7 21:43:02 CET 2009
56 - fix compilation of select backend in fd_set mode when NFDBITS is
57 missing (to get it to compile on QNX, reported by Rodrigo Campos).
58 - better select-nfds handling when select backend is in fd_set mode.
59 - diagnose fd_set overruns when select backend is in fd_set mode.
60 - due to a thinko, instead of disabling everything but
61 select on the borked OS X platform, everything but select was
62 allowed (reported by Emanuele Giaquinta).
63 - actually verify that local and remote port are matching in
64 libev's socketpair emulation, which makes denial-of-service
65 attacks harder (but not impossible - it's windows). Make sure
66 it even works under vista, which thinks that getpeer/sockname
67 should return fantasy port numbers.
68 - include "libev" in all assertion messages for potentially
69 clearer diagnostics.
70 - event_get_version (libevent compatibility) returned
71 a useless string instead of the expected version string
72 (patch by W.C.A. Wijngaards).
