1 Revision history for libev, a high-performance and full-featured event loop.
2
3 3.4
4 - work around an (undocumented) bug in winsocket select: if you
5 provide only empty fd sets then select returns WSAEINVAL. how sucky.
6 - use 1-based 2-heap for EV_MINIMAL, simplifies code, reduces
7 codesize and makes for better cache-efficiency.
8 - use 3-based 4-heap for !EV_MINIMAL. this makes better use
9 of cpu cache lines and gives better growth behaviour than
10 2-based heaps.
11 - cache timestamp within heap for !EV_MINIMAL, to avoid random
12 memory accesses.
13 - document/add EV_USE_4HEAP and EV_HEAP_CACHE_AT.
14 - fix a potential aliasing issue in ev_timer_again.
15 - add/document ev_periodic_at, retract direct access to ->at.
16 - improve ev_stat docs.
17 - add portability requirements section.
18 - fix manpage headers etc.
19 - normalise WSA error codes to lower range on windows.

21 3.31 Wed Apr 16 20:45:04 CEST 2008
22 - added last minute fix for ev_poll.c by Brandon Black.
23
24 3.3 Wed Apr 16 19:04:10 CEST 2008
25 - event_base_loopexit should return 0 on success
26 (W.C.A. Wijngaards).
27 - added linux eventfd support.
28 - try to autodetect epoll and inotify support
29 by libc header version if not using autoconf.
30 - new symbols: EV_DEFAULT_UC and EV_DEFAULT_UC_.
31 - declare functions defined in ev.h as inline if
32 C99 or gcc are available.
33 - enable inlining with gcc versions 2 and 3.
34 - work around broken poll implementations potentially
35 not clearing revents field in ev_poll (Brandon Black)
36 (no such systems are known at this time).
37 - work around a bug in realloc on openbsd and darwin,
38 also makes the errornous valgrind complaints
39 go away (noted by various people).
40 - fix ev_async_pending, add c++ wrapper for ev_async
41 (based on patch sent by Johannes Deisenhofer.
42 - add sensible set method to ev::embed.
43 - made integer constants type int in ev.h.
44
45 3.2 Wed Apr 2 17:11:19 CEST 2008
46 - fix a 64 bit overflow issue in the select backend,
47 by using fd_mask instead of int for the mask.
48 - rename internal sighandler to avoid clash with very old perls.
49 - entering ev_loop will not clear the ONESHOT or NONBLOCKING
50 flags of any outer loops anymore.
51 - add ev_async_pending.
52
53 3.1 Thu Mar 13 13:45:22 CET 2008
54 - implement ev_async watchers.
55 - only initialise signal pipe on demand.
56 - make use of sig_atomic_t configurable.
57 - improved documentation.
58
59 3.0 Mon Jan 28 13:14:47 CET 2008
60 - API/ABI bump to version 3.0.
61 - ev++.h includes "ev.h" by default now, not <ev.h>.
62 - slightly improved documentation.
63 - speed up signal detection after a fork.
64 - only optionally return trace status changed in ev_child
65 watchers.
66 - experimental (and undocumented) loop wrappers for ev++.h.
67
68 2.01 Tue Dec 25 08:04:41 CET 2007
