1 Revision history for libev, a high-performance and full-featured event loop.
2
3 - pass in the write fd set as except fd set under windows. windows
4 is so uncontrollably lame that it requires this. this means that
5 switching off oobinline is not supported (but tcp/ip doesn't
6 have oob, so that would be stupid anyways.
7 - use posix module symbol to auto-detect monotonic clock presence
8 and some other default values.

10 3.41 Fri May 23 18:42:54 CEST 2008
11 - work around an obscure bug in winsocket select: if you
12 provide only empty fd sets then select returns WSAEINVAL. how sucky.
13 - improve timer scheduling stability and reduce use of time_epsilon.
14 - use 1-based 2-heap for EV_MINIMAL, simplifies code, reduces
15 codesize and makes for better cache-efficiency.
16 - use 3-based 4-heap for !EV_MINIMAL. this makes better use
17 of cpu cache lines and gives better growth behaviour than
18 2-based heaps.
19 - cache timestamp within heap for !EV_MINIMAL, to avoid random
20 memory accesses.
21 - document/add EV_USE_4HEAP and EV_HEAP_CACHE_AT.
22 - fix a potential aliasing issue in ev_timer_again.
23 - add/document ev_periodic_at, retract direct access to ->at.
24 - improve ev_stat docs.
25 - add portability requirements section.
26 - fix manpage headers etc.
27 - normalise WSA error codes to lower range on windows.
28 - add consistency check code that can be called automatically
29 or on demand to check for internal structures (ev_loop_verify).
30
31 3.31 Wed Apr 16 20:45:04 CEST 2008
32 - added last minute fix for ev_poll.c by Brandon Black.
33
34 3.3 Wed Apr 16 19:04:10 CEST 2008
35 - event_base_loopexit should return 0 on success
36 (W.C.A. Wijngaards).
37 - added linux eventfd support.
38 - try to autodetect epoll and inotify support
39 by libc header version if not using autoconf.
40 - new symbols: EV_DEFAULT_UC and EV_DEFAULT_UC_.
41 - declare functions defined in ev.h as inline if
42 C99 or gcc are available.
43 - enable inlining with gcc versions 2 and 3.
44 - work around broken poll implementations potentially
45 not clearing revents field in ev_poll (Brandon Black)
46 (no such systems are known at this time).
47 - work around a bug in realloc on openbsd and darwin,
48 also makes the errornous valgrind complaints
49 go away (noted by various people).
50 - fix ev_async_pending, add c++ wrapper for ev_async
51 (based on patch sent by Johannes Deisenhofer.
52 - add sensible set method to ev::embed.
53 - made integer constants type int in ev.h.
54
55 3.2 Wed Apr 2 17:11:19 CEST 2008
56 - fix a 64 bit overflow issue in the select backend,
57 by using fd_mask instead of int for the mask.
58 - rename internal sighandler to avoid clash with very old perls.
59 - entering ev_loop will not clear the ONESHOT or NONBLOCKING
60 flags of any outer loops anymore.
61 - add ev_async_pending.
62
63 3.1 Thu Mar 13 13:45:22 CET 2008
64 - implement ev_async watchers.
65 - only initialise signal pipe on demand.
66 - make use of sig_atomic_t configurable.
67 - improved documentation.
68
69 3.0 Mon Jan 28 13:14:47 CET 2008
70 - API/ABI bump to version 3.0.
71 - ev++.h includes "ev.h" by default now, not <ev.h>.
72 - slightly improved documentation.
73 - speed up signal detection after a fork.
74 - only optionally return trace status changed in ev_child
75 watchers.
76 - experimental (and undocumented) loop wrappers for ev++.h.
77
78 2.01 Tue Dec 25 08:04:41 CET 2007
79 - separate Changes file.
80 - fix ev_path_set => ev_stat_set typo.
81 - remove event_compat.h from the libev tarball.

88 - removed epoll from embeddable fd set.
89 - fix embed watchers.
90 - renamed ev_embed.loop to other.
91 - added exported Symbol tables.
92 - undefine member wrapper macros at the end of ev.c.
93 - respect EV_H in ev++.h.
