3 root 1.11 TODO: document move/renaming issues for fullname
4     TODO: find_watchers($path), or maybe just ->watchers
5    
6 root 1.29 2.2 Mon Dec 9 04:09:05 CET 2019
7 root 1.28 - define IN_EXCL_UNLINK to 0 if it is missing, for the benefit of
8     antique systems that lack this symbol.
9    
10 root 1.27 2.1 Fri Oct 26 03:16:03 CEST 2018
11     - damn, left debugging code not caught by tests (reported by losyme).
12    
13 root 1.26 2.0 Thu Oct 25 03:19:08 CEST 2018
14     - fix poll and read documentation w.r.t. errors - this changes the
15     documented API, but is how the module has always behaved.
16 root 1.25 - mention https://lwn.net/Articles/605128/ in the docs.
17 root 1.24 - new on_overflow callback, called for overflow events.
18     - new ->broadcast method that calls all watchers with some event.
19     - automatically broadcast overflow events to all watchers by default.
20     - read now returns all events (except ignored ones), not just ones
21     it has registered watchers for (e.g. overflow events).
22 root 1.19 - reduced dependencies (Mike Pomraning).
23 root 1.23 - add IN_EXCL_UNLINK flag.
24     - more efficient constant initialisation.
25 root 1.19
26 root 1.18 1.22 Tue Jun 14 08:34:38 CEST 2011
27     - use a more useful definition of IN_xxx methods - any bits, not
28     a match. (pointed out by Anatoliy Grishayev).
29     - slightly reworked the documentation.
30    
31 root 1.17 1.21 Mon Sep 21 10:07:07 CEST 2009
32     - fix a couple of typoes, as pointed out by Grant McLean.
33     - rely on common::sense for stricter namespace checking.
34    
35 root 1.16 1.2 Tue Oct 7 19:23:57 CEST 2008
36 root 1.14 - include IN_DELETE_SELF in events that cancel watchers, as
37     the kernel seems to handle it this way only.
38 root 1.15 - require sys/inotify.h to be installed, remove the local
39     copy (patch by Adrian Bunk).
40     - update examples.
41 root 1.14
42 root 1.13 1.1 Fri Sep 29 16:40:14 CEST 2006
43 root 1.12 - fixed formatting.
44 root 1.13 - add IN_MASK_ADD, IN_DONT_FOLLOW, IN_ONLYDIR.
45     - updated inotify.h from inotify-utils for wider architecture support.
46     - no internal changes.
47 root 1.12
48 root 1.10 1.01 Tue Dec 20 12:31:16 CET 2005
49     - more fixes by Andrejs Dubovskis:
50     - removed debugging code accidentally left in.
51     - streaming API didn't always return properly blessed objects.
52    
53 root 1.21 1.0 Mon Dec 19 17:48:01 CET 2005
54 root 1.9 - incorporated a major patch by Andrejs Dubovskis:
55     - added a non-callback interface to read events
56     - better error handling in non-blocking case.
57     - added test case.
58     - fix reading events leaking memory.
59    
60 root 1.8 0.8 Sun Nov 27 13:43:14 CET 2005
61 root 1.5 - improved documentation.
62 root 1.6 - added IN_MOVE_SELF.
63 root 1.8 - cancel events when receiving an IN_ONESHOT event.

65 root 1.5
66     0.2 Tue Aug 23 04:27:31 CEST 2005
67 root 1.3 - poll now really returns the #events.
68     - handle multiple cancel's gracefully.
69     - auto-cancel watchers on IN_IGNORED and IN_UNMOUNT.
70 root 1.4 situation with IN_ONESHOT is unclear
71     (does have no effect on 2.6.13-rc6-git13).
72 root 1.3 - avoid race between canceled and newly-created watches.
73     - improved documentation.
74
