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

89 - new ev_sleep, ev_set_(io|timeout)_collect_interval.
90 - removed epoll from embeddable fd set.
91 - fix embed watchers.
92 - renamed ev_embed.loop to other.
