Revision history for libev, a high-performance and full-featured event loop.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
	- ANDROID => __ANDROID__ (reported by enh@google.com).
 | 
			
		||||
        - disable epoll_create1 on android because it has broken header files
 | 
			
		||||
          and google is unwilling to fix them (reported by enh@google.com).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.24 Wed Dec 28 05:19:55 CET 2016
 | 
			
		||||
	- bump version to 4.24, as the release tarball inexplicably
 | 
			
		||||
          didn't have the right version in ev.h, even though the cvs-tagged
 | 
			
		||||
          version did have the right one (reported by Ales Teska).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.23 Wed Nov 16 18:23:41 CET 2016
 | 
			
		||||
	- move some declarations at the beginning to help certain retarded
 | 
			
		||||
          microsoft compilers, even though their documentation claims
 | 
			
		||||
          otherwise (reported by Ruslan Osmanov).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.22 Sun Dec 20 22:11:50 CET 2015
 | 
			
		||||
	- when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild
 | 
			
		||||
          only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid
 | 
			
		||||
          SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork,
 | 
			
		||||
          so document what needs to be done in ev_loop_fork
 | 
			
		||||
          (analyzed by Benjamin Mahler).
 | 
			
		||||
	- remove superfluous sys/timeb.h include on win32
 | 
			
		||||
          (analyzed by Jason Madden).
 | 
			
		||||
        - updated libecb.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.20 Sat Jun 20 13:01:43 CEST 2015
 | 
			
		||||
	- prefer noexcept over throw () with C++ 11.
 | 
			
		||||
        - update ecb.h due to incompatibilities with c11.
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix a potential aliasing issue when reading and writing
 | 
			
		||||
          watcher callbacks.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.19 Thu Sep 25 08:18:25 CEST 2014
 | 
			
		||||
	- ev.h wasn't valid C++ anymore, which tripped compilers other than
 | 
			
		||||
          clang, msvc or gcc (analyzed by Raphael 'kena' Poss). Unfortunately,
 | 
			
		||||
          C++ doesn't support typedefs for function pointers fully, so the affected
 | 
			
		||||
          declarations have to spell out the types each time.
 | 
			
		||||
	- when not using autoconf, tighten the check for clock_gettime and related
 | 
			
		||||
          functionality.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.18 Fri Sep  5 17:55:26 CEST 2014
 | 
			
		||||
	- events on files were not always generated properly with the
 | 
			
		||||
          epoll backend (testcase by Assaf Inbal).
 | 
			
		||||
	- mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin).
 | 
			
		||||
        - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat).
 | 
			
		||||
        - use a reasonable fallback for EV_NSIG instead of erroring out
 | 
			
		||||
          when we can't detect the signal set size.
 | 
			
		||||
        - in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall
 | 
			
		||||
          on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems
 | 
			
		||||
          doing clock_gettime in userspace).
 | 
			
		||||
        - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible
 | 
			
		||||
          loop callbacks (not watcher callbacks yet).
 | 
			
		||||
        - (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being
 | 
			
		||||
          broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.15 Fri Mar  1 12:04:50 CET 2013
 | 
			
		||||
        - destroying a non-default loop would stop the global waitpid
 | 
			
		||||
          watcher (Denis Bilenko).
 | 
			
		||||
	- queueing pending watchers of higher priority from a watcher now invokes
 | 
			
		||||
          them in a timely fashion (reported by Denis Bilenko).
 | 
			
		||||
	- add throw() to all libev functions that cannot throw exceptions, for
 | 
			
		||||
          further code size decrease when compiling for C++.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add throw () to callbacks that must not throw exceptions (allocator,
 | 
			
		||||
          syserr, loop acquire/release, periodic reschedule cbs).
 | 
			
		||||
	- fix event_base_loop return code, add event_get_callback, event_base_new,
 | 
			
		||||
          event_base_get_method calls to improve libevent 1.x emulation and add
 | 
			
		||||
          some libevent 2.x functionality (based on a patch by Jeff Davey).
 | 
			
		||||
        - add more memory fences to fix a bug reported by Jeff Davey. Better
 | 
			
		||||
          be overfenced than underprotected.
 | 
			
		||||
	- ev_run now returns a boolean status (true meaning watchers are
 | 
			
		||||
          still active).
 | 
			
		||||
	- ev_once: undef EV_ERROR in ev_kqueue.c, to avoid clashing with
 | 
			
		||||
          libev's EV_ERROR (reported by 191919).
 | 
			
		||||
	- (ecb) add memory fence support for xlC (Darin McBride).
 | 
			
		||||
	- (ecb) add memory fence support for gcc-mips (Anton Kirilov).
 | 
			
		||||
	- (ecb) add memory fence support for gcc-alpha (Christian Weisgerber).
 | 
			
		||||
        - work around some kernels losing file descriptors by leaking
 | 
			
		||||
          the kqueue descriptor in the child.
 | 
			
		||||
        - work around linux inotify not reporting IN_ATTRIB changes for directories
 | 
			
		||||
          in many cases.
 | 
			
		||||
        - include sys/syscall.h instead of plain syscall.h.
 | 
			
		||||
        - check for io watcher loops in ev_verify, check for the most
 | 
			
		||||
          common reported usage bug in ev_io_start.
 | 
			
		||||
        - choose socket vs. WSASocket at compiletime using EV_USE_WSASOCKET.
 | 
			
		||||
        - always use WSASend/WSARecv directly on windows, hoping that this
 | 
			
		||||
          works in all cases (unlike read/write/send/recv...).
 | 
			
		||||
        - try to detect signals around a fork faster (test program by
 | 
			
		||||
          Denis Bilenko).
 | 
			
		||||
        - work around recent glibc versions that leak memory in realloc.
 | 
			
		||||
        - rename ev::embed::set to ev::embed::set_embed to avoid clashing
 | 
			
		||||
          the watcher base set (loop) method.
 | 
			
		||||
        - rewrite the async/signal pipe logic to always keep a valid fd, which
 | 
			
		||||
          simplifies (and hopefully correctifies :) the race checking
 | 
			
		||||
          on fork, at the cost of one extra fd.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add fat, msdos, jffs2, ramfs, ntfs and btrfs to the list of
 | 
			
		||||
          inotify-supporting filesystems.
 | 
			
		||||
        - move orig_CFLAGS assignment to after AC_INIT, as newer autoconf
 | 
			
		||||
          versions ignore it before
 | 
			
		||||
          (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=908096).
 | 
			
		||||
        - add some untested android support.
 | 
			
		||||
        - enum expressions must be of type int (reported by Juan Pablo L).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.11 Sat Feb  4 19:52:39 CET 2012
 | 
			
		||||
	- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: ev_timer_again now clears the pending status, as
 | 
			
		||||
          was documented already, but not implemented in the repeating case.
 | 
			
		||||
        - new compiletime symbols: EV_NO_SMP and EV_NO_THREADS.
 | 
			
		||||
	- fix a race where the workaround against the epoll fork bugs
 | 
			
		||||
          caused signals to not be handled anymore.
 | 
			
		||||
	- correct backend_fudge for most backends, and implement a windows
 | 
			
		||||
          specific workaround to avoid looping because we call both
 | 
			
		||||
          select and Sleep, both with different time resolutions.
 | 
			
		||||
        - document range and guarantees of ev_sleep.
 | 
			
		||||
        - document reasonable ranges for periodics interval and offset.
 | 
			
		||||
        - rename backend_fudge to backend_mintime to avoid future confusion :)
 | 
			
		||||
	- change the default periodic reschedule function to hopefully be more
 | 
			
		||||
          exact and correct even in corner cases or in the far future.
 | 
			
		||||
        - do not rely on -lm anymore: use it when available but use our
 | 
			
		||||
          own floor () if it is missing. This should make it easier to embed,
 | 
			
		||||
          as no external libraries are required.
 | 
			
		||||
        - strategically import macros from libecb and mark rarely-used functions
 | 
			
		||||
          as cache-cold (saving almost 2k code size on typical amd64 setups).
 | 
			
		||||
        - add Symbols.ev and Symbols.event files, that were missing.
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix backend_mintime value for epoll (was 1/1024, is 1/1000 now).
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix #3 "be smart about timeouts" to not "deadlock" when
 | 
			
		||||
          timeout == now, also improve the section overall.
 | 
			
		||||
        - avoid "AVOIDING FINISHING BEFORE RETURNING" idiom.
 | 
			
		||||
        - support new EV_API_STATIC mode to make all libev symbols
 | 
			
		||||
          static.
 | 
			
		||||
        - supply default CFLAGS of -g -O3 with gcc when original CFLAGS
 | 
			
		||||
          were empty.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.04 Wed Feb 16 09:01:51 CET 2011
 | 
			
		||||
	- fix two problems in the native win32 backend, where reuse of fd's
 | 
			
		||||
          with different underlying handles caused handles not to be removed
 | 
			
		||||
          or added to the select set (analyzed and tested by Bert Belder).
 | 
			
		||||
	- do no rely on ceil() in ev_e?poll.c.
 | 
			
		||||
        - backport libev to HP-UX versions before 11 v3.
 | 
			
		||||
        - configure did not detect nanosleep and clock_gettime properly when
 | 
			
		||||
          they are available in the libc (as opposed to -lrt).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.03 Tue Jan 11 14:37:25 CET 2011
 | 
			
		||||
	- officially support polling files with all backends.
 | 
			
		||||
	- support files, /dev/zero etc. the same way as select in the epoll
 | 
			
		||||
          backend, by generating events on our own.
 | 
			
		||||
        - ports backend: work around solaris bug 6874410 and many related ones
 | 
			
		||||
          (EINTR, maybe more), with no performance loss (note that the solaris
 | 
			
		||||
          bug report is actually wrong, reality is far more bizarre and broken
 | 
			
		||||
          than that).
 | 
			
		||||
	- define EV_READ/EV_WRITE as macros in event.h, as some programs use
 | 
			
		||||
          #ifdef to test for them.
 | 
			
		||||
        - new (experimental) function: ev_feed_signal.
 | 
			
		||||
        - new (to become default) EVFLAG_NOSIGMASK flag.
 | 
			
		||||
        - new EVBACKEND_MASK symbol.
 | 
			
		||||
        - updated COMMON IDIOMS SECTION.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.01 Fri Nov  5 21:51:29 CET 2010
 | 
			
		||||
        - automake fucked it up, apparently, --add-missing -f is not quite enough
 | 
			
		||||
          to make it update its files, so 4.00 didn't install ev++.h and
 | 
			
		||||
          event.h on make install. grrr.
 | 
			
		||||
        - ev_loop(count|depth) didn't return anything (Robin Haberkorn).
 | 
			
		||||
        - change EV_UNDEF to 0xffffffff to silence some overzealous compilers.
 | 
			
		||||
        - use "(libev) " prefix for all libev error messages now.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
4.00 Mon Oct 25 12:32:12 CEST 2010
 | 
			
		||||
	- "PORTING FROM LIBEV 3.X TO 4.X" (in ev.pod) is recommended reading.
 | 
			
		||||
	- ev_embed_stop did not correctly stop the watcher (very good
 | 
			
		||||
          testcase by Vladimir Timofeev).
 | 
			
		||||
        - ev_run will now always update the current loop time - it erroneously
 | 
			
		||||
          didn't when idle watchers were active, causing timers not to fire.
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix a bug where a timeout of zero caused the timer not to fire
 | 
			
		||||
          in the libevent emulation (testcase by Péter Szabó).
 | 
			
		||||
	- applied win32 fixes by Michael Lenaghan (also James Mansion).
 | 
			
		||||
	- replace EV_MINIMAL by EV_FEATURES.
 | 
			
		||||
        - prefer EPOLL_CTL_ADD over EPOLL_CTL_MOD in some more cases, as it
 | 
			
		||||
          seems the former is *much* faster than the latter.
 | 
			
		||||
        - linux kernel version detection (for inotify bug workarounds)
 | 
			
		||||
          did not work properly.
 | 
			
		||||
        - reduce the number of spurious wake-ups with the ports backend.
 | 
			
		||||
        - remove dependency on sys/queue.h on freebsd (patch by Vanilla Hsu).
 | 
			
		||||
        - do async init within ev_async_start, not ev_async_set, which avoids
 | 
			
		||||
          an API quirk where the set function must be called in the C++ API
 | 
			
		||||
          even when there is nothing to set.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add (undocumented) EV_ENABLE when adding events with kqueue,
 | 
			
		||||
          this might help with OS X, which seems to need it despite documenting
 | 
			
		||||
          not to need it (helpfully pointed out by Tilghman Lesher).
 | 
			
		||||
        - do not use poll by default on freebsd, it's broken (what isn't
 | 
			
		||||
          on freebsd...).
 | 
			
		||||
        - allow to embed epoll on kernels >= 2.6.32.
 | 
			
		||||
        - configure now prepends -O3, not appends it, so one can still
 | 
			
		||||
          override it.
 | 
			
		||||
        - ev.pod: greatly expanded the portability section, added a porting
 | 
			
		||||
          section, a description of watcher states and made lots of minor fixes.
 | 
			
		||||
        - disable poll backend on AIX, the poll header spams the namespace
 | 
			
		||||
          and it's not worth working around dead platforms (reported
 | 
			
		||||
          and analyzed by Aivars Kalvans).
 | 
			
		||||
        - improve header file compatibility of the standalone eventfd code
 | 
			
		||||
          in an obscure case.
 | 
			
		||||
        - implement EV_AVOID_STDIO option.
 | 
			
		||||
        - do not use sscanf to parse linux version number (smaller, faster,
 | 
			
		||||
          no sscanf dependency).
 | 
			
		||||
        - new EV_CHILD_ENABLE and EV_SIGNAL_ENABLE configurable settings.
 | 
			
		||||
        - update libev.m4 HAVE_CLOCK_SYSCALL test for newer glibcs.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add section on accept() problems to the manpage.
 | 
			
		||||
        - rename EV_TIMEOUT to EV_TIMER.
 | 
			
		||||
        - rename ev_loop_count/depth/verify/loop/unloop.
 | 
			
		||||
        - remove ev_default_destroy and ev_default_fork.
 | 
			
		||||
        - switch to two-digit minor version.
 | 
			
		||||
        - work around an apparent gentoo compiler bug.
 | 
			
		||||
        - define _DARWIN_UNLIMITED_SELECT. just so.
 | 
			
		||||
        - use enum instead of #define for most constants.
 | 
			
		||||
        - improve compatibility to older C++ compilers.
 | 
			
		||||
        - (experimental) ev_run/ev_default_loop/ev_break/ev_loop_new have now
 | 
			
		||||
          default arguments when compiled as C++.
 | 
			
		||||
        - enable automake dependency tracking.
 | 
			
		||||
        - ev_loop_new no longer leaks memory when loop creation failed.
 | 
			
		||||
        - new ev_cleanup watcher type.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.9  Thu Dec 31 07:59:59 CET 2009
 | 
			
		||||
	- signalfd is no longer used by default and has to be requested
 | 
			
		||||
          explicitly - this means that easy to catch bugs become hard to
 | 
			
		||||
          catch race conditions, but the users have spoken.
 | 
			
		||||
        - point out the unspecified signal mask in the documentation, and
 | 
			
		||||
          that this is a race condition regardless of EV_SIGNALFD.
 | 
			
		||||
	- backport inotify code to C89.
 | 
			
		||||
        - inotify file descriptors could leak into child processes.
 | 
			
		||||
        - ev_stat watchers could keep an erroneous extra ref on the loop,
 | 
			
		||||
          preventing exit when unregistering all watchers (testcases
 | 
			
		||||
          provided by ry@tinyclouds.org).
 | 
			
		||||
        - implement EV_WIN32_HANDLE_TO_FD and EV_WIN32_CLOSE_FD configuration
 | 
			
		||||
          symbols to make it easier for apps to do their own fd management.
 | 
			
		||||
        - support EV_IDLE_ENABLE being disabled in ev++.h
 | 
			
		||||
          (patch by Didier Spezia).
 | 
			
		||||
        - take advantage of inotify_init1, if available, to set cloexec/nonblock
 | 
			
		||||
          on fd creation, to avoid races.
 | 
			
		||||
        - the signal handling pipe wasn't always initialised under windows
 | 
			
		||||
          (analysed by lekma).
 | 
			
		||||
        - changed minimum glibc requirement from glibc 2.9 to 2.7, for
 | 
			
		||||
          signalfd.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add missing string.h include (Denis F. Latypoff).
 | 
			
		||||
        - only replace ev_stat.prev when we detect an actual difference,
 | 
			
		||||
          so prev is (almost) always different to attr. this might
 | 
			
		||||
          have caused the problems with 04_stat.t.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add ev::timer->remaining () method to C++ API.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.8  Sun Aug  9 14:30:45 CEST 2009
 | 
			
		||||
	- incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal handler
 | 
			
		||||
          to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped.
 | 
			
		||||
        - ev_default_destroy did not properly free or zero some members,
 | 
			
		||||
          potentially causing crashes and memory corruption on repeated
 | 
			
		||||
          ev_default_destroy/ev_default_loop calls.
 | 
			
		||||
	- take advantage of signalfd on GNU/Linux systems.
 | 
			
		||||
	- document that the signal mask might be in an unspecified
 | 
			
		||||
          state when using libev's signal handling.
 | 
			
		||||
        - take advantage of some GNU/Linux calls to set cloexec/nonblock
 | 
			
		||||
          on fd creation, to avoid race conditions.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.7  Fri Jul 17 16:36:32 CEST 2009
 | 
			
		||||
	- ev_unloop and ev_loop wrongly used a global variable to exit loops,
 | 
			
		||||
          instead of using a per-loop variable (bug caught by accident...).
 | 
			
		||||
	- the ev_set_io_collect_interval interpretation has changed.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add new functionality: ev_set_userdata, ev_userdata,
 | 
			
		||||
          ev_set_invoke_pending_cb, ev_set_loop_release_cb,
 | 
			
		||||
          ev_invoke_pending, ev_pending_count, together with a long example
 | 
			
		||||
          about thread locking.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add ev_timer_remaining (as requested by Denis F. Latypoff).
 | 
			
		||||
        - add ev_loop_depth.
 | 
			
		||||
        - calling ev_unloop in fork/prepare watchers will no longer poll
 | 
			
		||||
          for new events.
 | 
			
		||||
	- Denis F. Latypoff corrected many typos in example code snippets.
 | 
			
		||||
        - honor autoconf detection of EV_USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL, also double-
 | 
			
		||||
          check that the syscall number is available before trying to
 | 
			
		||||
          use it (reported by ry@tinyclouds).
 | 
			
		||||
        - use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime instead of _timeb on windows, for
 | 
			
		||||
          slightly higher accuracy.
 | 
			
		||||
        - properly declare ev_loop_verify and ev_now_update even when
 | 
			
		||||
          !EV_MULTIPLICITY.
 | 
			
		||||
        - do not compile in any priority code when EV_MAXPRI == EV_MINPRI.
 | 
			
		||||
        - support EV_MINIMAL==2 for a reduced API.
 | 
			
		||||
        - actually 0-initialise struct sigaction when installing signals.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add section on hibernate and stopped processes to ev_timer docs.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.6  Tue Apr 28 02:49:30 CEST 2009
 | 
			
		||||
	- multiple timers becoming ready within an event loop iteration
 | 
			
		||||
          will be invoked in the "correct" order now.
 | 
			
		||||
	- do not leave the event loop early just because we have no active
 | 
			
		||||
          watchers, fixing a problem when embedding a kqueue loop
 | 
			
		||||
          that has active kernel events but no registered watchers
 | 
			
		||||
          (reported by blacksand blacksand).
 | 
			
		||||
	- correctly zero the idx values for arrays, so destroying and
 | 
			
		||||
          reinitialising the default loop actually works (patch by
 | 
			
		||||
          Malek Hadj-Ali).
 | 
			
		||||
        - implement ev_suspend and ev_resume.
 | 
			
		||||
        - new EV_CUSTOM revents flag for use by applications.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add documentation section about priorities.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add a glossary to the documentation.
 | 
			
		||||
        - extend the ev_fork description slightly.
 | 
			
		||||
        - optimize a jump out of call_pending.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.53 Sun Feb 15 02:38:20 CET 2009
 | 
			
		||||
	- fix a bug in event pipe creation on win32 that would cause a
 | 
			
		||||
          failed assertion on event loop creation (patch by Malek Hadj-Ali).
 | 
			
		||||
	- probe for CLOCK_REALTIME support at runtime as well and fall
 | 
			
		||||
          back to gettimeofday if there is an error, to support older
 | 
			
		||||
          operating systems with newer header files/libraries.
 | 
			
		||||
        - prefer gettimeofday over clock_gettime with USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL
 | 
			
		||||
          (default most everywhere), otherwise not.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.52 Wed Jan  7 21:43:02 CET 2009
 | 
			
		||||
	- fix compilation of select backend in fd_set mode when NFDBITS is
 | 
			
		||||
          missing (to get it to compile on QNX, reported by Rodrigo Campos).
 | 
			
		||||
        - better select-nfds handling when select backend is in fd_set mode.
 | 
			
		||||
        - diagnose fd_set overruns when select backend is in fd_set mode.
 | 
			
		||||
        - due to a thinko, instead of disabling everything but
 | 
			
		||||
          select on the borked OS X platform, everything but select was
 | 
			
		||||
          allowed (reported by Emanuele Giaquinta).
 | 
			
		||||
        - actually verify that local and remote port are matching in
 | 
			
		||||
          libev's socketpair emulation, which makes denial-of-service
 | 
			
		||||
          attacks harder (but not impossible - it's windows). Make sure
 | 
			
		||||
          it even works under vista, which thinks that getpeer/sockname
 | 
			
		||||
          should return fantasy port numbers.
 | 
			
		||||
        - include "libev" in all assertion messages for potentially
 | 
			
		||||
          clearer diagnostics.
 | 
			
		||||
        - event_get_version (libevent compatibility) returned
 | 
			
		||||
          a useless string instead of the expected version string
 | 
			
		||||
          (patch by W.C.A. Wijngaards).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.51 Wed Dec 24 23:00:11 CET 2008
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix a bug where an inotify watcher was added twice, causing
 | 
			
		||||
          freezes on hash collisions (reported and analysed by Graham Leggett).
 | 
			
		||||
	- new config symbol, EV_USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL, to make libev use
 | 
			
		||||
          a direct syscall - slower, but no dependency on librt et al.
 | 
			
		||||
        - assume negative return values != -1 signals success of port_getn
 | 
			
		||||
          (http://cvs.epicsol.org/cgi/viewcvs.cgi/epic5/source/newio.c?rev=1.52)
 | 
			
		||||
          (no known failure reports, but it doesn't hurt).
 | 
			
		||||
        - fork detection in ev_embed now stops and restarts the watcher
 | 
			
		||||
          automatically.
 | 
			
		||||
        - EXPERIMENTAL: default the method to operator () in ev++.h,
 | 
			
		||||
          to make it nicer to use functors (requested by Benedek László).
 | 
			
		||||
        - fixed const object callbacks in ev++.h.
 | 
			
		||||
        - replaced loop_ref argument of watcher.set (loop) by a direct
 | 
			
		||||
          ev_loop * in ev++.h, to avoid clashes with functor patch.
 | 
			
		||||
        - do not try to watch the empty string via inotify.
 | 
			
		||||
        - inotify watchers could be leaked under certain circumstances.
 | 
			
		||||
        - OS X 10.5 is actually even more broken than earlier versions,
 | 
			
		||||
          so fall back to select on that piece of garbage.
 | 
			
		||||
        - fixed some weirdness in the ev_embed documentation.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.49 Wed Nov 19 11:26:53 CET 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- ev_stat watchers will now use inotify as a mere hint on
 | 
			
		||||
          kernels <2.6.25, or if the filesystem is not in the
 | 
			
		||||
          "known to be good" list.
 | 
			
		||||
        - better mingw32 compatibility (it's not as borked as native win32)
 | 
			
		||||
          (analysed by Roger Pack).
 | 
			
		||||
        - include stdio.h in the example program, as too many people are
 | 
			
		||||
          confused by the weird C language otherwise. I guess the next thing
 | 
			
		||||
          I get told is that the "..." ellipses in the examples don't compile
 | 
			
		||||
          with their C compiler.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.48 Thu Oct 30 09:02:37 CET 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- further optimise away the EPOLL_CTL_ADD/MOD combo in the epoll
 | 
			
		||||
          backend by assuming the kernel event mask hasn't changed if
 | 
			
		||||
          ADD fails with EEXIST.
 | 
			
		||||
        - work around spurious event notification bugs in epoll by using
 | 
			
		||||
          a 32-bit generation counter. recreate kernel state if we receive
 | 
			
		||||
          spurious notifications or unwanted events. this is very costly,
 | 
			
		||||
          but I didn't come up with this horrible design.
 | 
			
		||||
        - use memset to initialise most arrays now and do away with the
 | 
			
		||||
          init functions.
 | 
			
		||||
        - expand time-out strategies into a "Be smart about timeouts" section.
 | 
			
		||||
        - drop the "struct" from all ev_watcher declarations in the
 | 
			
		||||
          documentation and did other clarifications (yeah, it was a mistake
 | 
			
		||||
          to have a struct AND a function called ev_loop).
 | 
			
		||||
	- fix a bug where ev_default would not initialise the default
 | 
			
		||||
          loop again after it was destroyed with ev_default_destroy.
 | 
			
		||||
        - rename syserr to ev_syserr to avoid name clashes when embedding,
 | 
			
		||||
          do similar changes for event.c.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.45 Tue Oct 21 21:59:26 CEST 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- disable inotify usage on linux <2.6.25, as it is broken
 | 
			
		||||
          (reported by Yoann Vandoorselaere).
 | 
			
		||||
        - ev_stat erroneously would try to add inotify watchers
 | 
			
		||||
          even when inotify wasn't available (this should only
 | 
			
		||||
          have a performance impact).
 | 
			
		||||
	- ev_once now passes both timeout and io to the callback if both
 | 
			
		||||
          occur concurrently, instead of giving timeouts precedence.
 | 
			
		||||
	- disable EV_USE_INOTIFY when sys/inotify.h is too old.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.44 Mon Sep 29 05:18:39 CEST 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- embed watchers now automatically invoke ev_loop_fork on the
 | 
			
		||||
          embedded loop when the parent loop forks.
 | 
			
		||||
	- new function: ev_now_update (loop).
 | 
			
		||||
	- verify_watcher was not marked static.
 | 
			
		||||
        - improve the "associating..." manpage section.
 | 
			
		||||
        - documentation tweaks here and there.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.43 Sun Jul  6 05:34:41 CEST 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- include more include files on windows to get struct _stati64
 | 
			
		||||
          (reported by Chris Hulbert, but doesn't quite fix his issue).
 | 
			
		||||
	- add missing #include <io.h> in ev.c on windows (reported by
 | 
			
		||||
          Matt Tolton).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.42 Tue Jun 17 12:12:07 CEST 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- work around yet another windows bug: FD_SET actually adds fd's
 | 
			
		||||
          multiple times to the fd_*SET*, despite official MSN docs claiming
 | 
			
		||||
          otherwise. Reported and well-analysed by Matt Tolton.
 | 
			
		||||
	- define NFDBITS to 0 when EV_SELECT_IS_WINSOCKET to make it compile
 | 
			
		||||
          (reported any analysed by Chris Hulbert).
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix a bug in ev_ebadf (this function is only used to catch
 | 
			
		||||
          programming errors in the libev user). reported by Matt Tolton.
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix a bug in fd_intern on win32 (could lead to compile errors
 | 
			
		||||
          under some circumstances, but would work correctly if it compiles).
 | 
			
		||||
          reported by Matt Tolton.
 | 
			
		||||
        - (try to) work around missing lstat on windows.
 | 
			
		||||
	- pass in the write fd set as except fd set under windows. windows
 | 
			
		||||
          is so uncontrollably lame that it requires this. this means that
 | 
			
		||||
          switching off oobinline is not supported (but tcp/ip doesn't
 | 
			
		||||
          have oob, so that would be stupid anyways.
 | 
			
		||||
        - use posix module symbol to auto-detect monotonic clock presence
 | 
			
		||||
          and some other default values.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.41 Fri May 23 18:42:54 CEST 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- work around an obscure bug in winsocket select: if you
 | 
			
		||||
          provide only empty fd sets then select returns WSAEINVAL. how sucky.
 | 
			
		||||
        - improve timer scheduling stability and reduce use of time_epsilon.
 | 
			
		||||
        - use 1-based 2-heap for EV_MINIMAL, simplifies code, reduces
 | 
			
		||||
          codesize and makes for better cache-efficiency.
 | 
			
		||||
        - use 3-based 4-heap for !EV_MINIMAL. this makes better use
 | 
			
		||||
          of cpu cache lines and gives better growth behaviour than
 | 
			
		||||
          2-based heaps.
 | 
			
		||||
        - cache timestamp within heap for !EV_MINIMAL, to avoid random
 | 
			
		||||
          memory accesses.
 | 
			
		||||
        - document/add EV_USE_4HEAP and EV_HEAP_CACHE_AT.
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix a potential aliasing issue in ev_timer_again.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add/document ev_periodic_at, retract direct access to ->at.
 | 
			
		||||
        - improve ev_stat docs.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add portability requirements section.
 | 
			
		||||
	- fix manpage headers etc.
 | 
			
		||||
        - normalise WSA error codes to lower range on windows.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add consistency check code that can be called automatically
 | 
			
		||||
          or on demand to check for internal structures (ev_loop_verify).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.31 Wed Apr 16 20:45:04 CEST 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- added last minute fix for ev_poll.c by Brandon Black.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.3  Wed Apr 16 19:04:10 CEST 2008
 | 
			
		||||
        - event_base_loopexit should return 0 on success
 | 
			
		||||
          (W.C.A. Wijngaards).
 | 
			
		||||
	- added linux eventfd support.
 | 
			
		||||
        - try to autodetect epoll and inotify support
 | 
			
		||||
          by libc header version if not using autoconf.
 | 
			
		||||
        - new symbols: EV_DEFAULT_UC and EV_DEFAULT_UC_.
 | 
			
		||||
        - declare functions defined in ev.h as inline if
 | 
			
		||||
          C99 or gcc are available.
 | 
			
		||||
        - enable inlining with gcc versions 2 and 3.
 | 
			
		||||
        - work around broken poll implementations potentially
 | 
			
		||||
          not clearing revents field in ev_poll (Brandon Black)
 | 
			
		||||
          (no such systems are known at this time).
 | 
			
		||||
        - work around a bug in realloc on openbsd and darwin,
 | 
			
		||||
          also makes the erroneous valgrind complaints
 | 
			
		||||
          go away (noted by various people).
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix ev_async_pending, add c++ wrapper for ev_async
 | 
			
		||||
          (based on patch sent by Johannes Deisenhofer).
 | 
			
		||||
        - add sensible set method to ev::embed.
 | 
			
		||||
        - made integer constants type int in ev.h.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.2  Wed Apr  2 17:11:19 CEST 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- fix a 64 bit overflow issue in the select backend,
 | 
			
		||||
          by using fd_mask instead of int for the mask.
 | 
			
		||||
        - rename internal sighandler to avoid clash with very old perls.
 | 
			
		||||
        - entering ev_loop will not clear the ONESHOT or NONBLOCKING
 | 
			
		||||
          flags of any outer loops anymore.
 | 
			
		||||
        - add ev_async_pending.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.1  Thu Mar 13 13:45:22 CET 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- implement ev_async watchers.
 | 
			
		||||
        - only initialise signal pipe on demand.
 | 
			
		||||
	- make use of sig_atomic_t configurable.
 | 
			
		||||
        - improved documentation.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
3.0  Mon Jan 28 13:14:47 CET 2008
 | 
			
		||||
	- API/ABI bump to version 3.0.
 | 
			
		||||
	- ev++.h includes "ev.h" by default now, not <ev.h>.
 | 
			
		||||
	- slightly improved documentation.
 | 
			
		||||
	- speed up signal detection after a fork.
 | 
			
		||||
        - only optionally return trace status changed in ev_child
 | 
			
		||||
          watchers.
 | 
			
		||||
        - experimental (and undocumented) loop wrappers for ev++.h.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
2.01 Tue Dec 25 08:04:41 CET 2007
 | 
			
		||||
	- separate Changes file.
 | 
			
		||||
	- fix ev_path_set => ev_stat_set typo.
 | 
			
		||||
        - remove event_compat.h from the libev tarball.
 | 
			
		||||
        - change how include files are found.
 | 
			
		||||
        - doc updates.
 | 
			
		||||
        - update licenses, explicitly allow for GPL relicensing.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
2.0  Sat Dec 22 17:47:03 CET 2007
 | 
			
		||||
        - new ev_sleep, ev_set_(io|timeout)_collect_interval.
 | 
			
		||||
        - removed epoll from embeddable fd set.
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix embed watchers.
 | 
			
		||||
	- renamed ev_embed.loop to other.
 | 
			
		||||
	- added exported Symbol tables.
 | 
			
		||||
        - undefine member wrapper macros at the end of ev.c.
 | 
			
		||||
        - respect EV_H in ev++.h.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
1.86 Tue Dec 18 02:36:57 CET 2007
 | 
			
		||||
	- fix memleak on loop destroy (not relevant for perl).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
1.85 Fri Dec 14 20:32:40 CET 2007
 | 
			
		||||
        - fix some aliasing issues w.r.t. timers and periodics
 | 
			
		||||
          (not relevant for perl).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
(for historic versions refer to EV/Changes, found in the Perl interface)
