+
+Changes in version 2.1.3-alpha (1 May 2013)
+
+ Libevent 2.1.3-alpha fixes various bugs, adds new unit tests, and cleans
+ up the code in a couple of places. It has a new callback in evhttp for
+ reporting errors during a request, a new feature for allowing evdns to
+ not keep the event_base looping when there are no requests inflight, and
+ example code for writing an https client.
+
+ Libevent 2.1.3-alpha also has an important new (experimental) event
+ finalization feature to allow safe event teardown in multithreaded
+ programs. This ought to fix the longstanding bug with deadlocks in
+ multithreaded use of SSL-based bufferevents that some people have been
+ experiencing since Libevent 2.0.
+
+
+ Core (event finalization)
+ o Implement event_finalize() and related functions to avoid certain
+ deadlocks (8eedeab)

+ o Remove bufferevent_del_generic_timeout_cbs as now unused (4ea4c6a)
+ o More documentation for finalization feature (a800b91)
+ o Make the event_finalize* functions return an error code (5d11f4f)
+ o Mark the finalize stuff as experiemental in case it needs to
+ change (23e2e29)
+

+ o evdns: New flag to make evdns not prevent the event loop from
+ exiting (6b7fa62 Azat Khuzhin)

+ Bugfixes (Core)
+ o Make event_remove_timer behave correctly with persistent timers (5623e80)
+ o Unit test for event_remove_timer with EV_PERSIST. (96150dd)

+
+Changes in version 2.1.2-alpha (18 Nov 2012)
+
+ Libevent 2.1.2-alpha includes more portable for monotonic timers,
+ refactors much of Libevent's internal and external infrastructure,
+ closes some longstanding gaps in the interface, makde other
+ improvements. Ths log below tries to organize features by rough area of
+ effect. It omits a few commits which were pure bugfixes on other commits
+ listed below. For more detail, see the git changelogs. For more
+ insight, see the "whatsnew-2.1.txt" document included in the Libevent
+ 2.1.2-alpha distribution.
+
+ Libevent 2.1.2-alpha also includes all changes made in 2.0.19-stable
+ through 2.0.21-stable inclusive.
+
+ Performance (core):
+ o Replace pipe-based notification with EVFILT_USER where possible. This
+ should make multithreaded programs on OSX and *BSD alert the main thread a
+ little faster. (53a07fe)
+ o Make th_base_lock nonrecursive. (9cd5acb)
+
+ New/Changed API Functions:
+ o New event_get_priority() function to return an event's priority (f90e255)
+ o Add a bufferevent_get_priority() function (bd39554)
+ o Add an event_base_loopcontinue() to tell Libevent to rescan for more
+ events right away (7d6aa5e)
+ o Add a new callback to get called on evbuffer_file_segment free
+ (e9f8feb yangacer, 64051b9)
+ o Expose event_base_foreach_event() as a public API. (84fd6d7 Roman
+ Puls, 232055e, ffe1643)
+ o Add an event_remove_timer() to remove timer on an event without
+ deleting it (e3b2e08)
+ o Make bufferevent_set_timeouts(bev, NULL, NULL) have plausible
+ semantics (9dee36b)
+ o Rename event_enable_lock_debuging() to ..._debugging(). (The old name
+ should still work.) (07e132e)
+ o Add missing implementation for event_enable_debug_logging (3b3e21d)
+
+ PORTABLE MONOTONIC TIMERS:
+
+ Libevent 2.1.2 includes internal support for monotonic timers on
+ (nearly) all supported platforms, including Windows, and OSX. Libevent
+ applications should now be more resilient to jumps forwards or backwards
+ in the system clock. Also, on Linux systems with epoll, we now
+ optionally support microsecond-level timeouts (whereas epoll only
+ supports millisecond-precision timeouts).
+
+ o Use mach_absolute_time() for monotonic clock support on OSX. (b8fd6f9)
+ o Do not track use_monotonic field when is no monotonic clock (cb653a0)
+ o EVENT_BASE_FLAG_PRECISE_TIMER indicates we want fine timer precision
+ (ddd69d3)
+ o On Linux, use CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE by default (55780a7)
+ o Implement a GetTickCount-based monotonic timer for Windows (d5e1d5a)
+ o Refactor monotonic timer handling into a new type and set of
+ functions; add a gettimeofday-based ratcheting implementation (f5e4eb0)
+ o Add EVENT_PRECISE_TIMER environment var for selecting precise-but-slow
+ timer (a2598ec)
+ o Implement fast/precise monotonic clocks on Windows (2c47045)
+ o Simple unit tests for monotonic timers (630f077)
+ o Improve the monotonic-time unit test: make it check the step size (7428c78)
+ o When PRECISE_TIMERS is set with epoll, use timerfd for microsecond
+ precision (26c7582)
+ o Split out time-related evutil functions into a new evutil_time.c (c419485)
+ o Split out time-related prototypes into time-internal.h (71bca50)
+ o Add evutil_time.obj to Makefile.nmake (0ba0683)
+ o Avoid giving a spurious warning when timerfd support is unavailable
+ (1aaf9f0 Dave Hart)
+ o Make test_evutil_monotonic a little more tolerant (def3b83)
+ o Avoid unused-var warning on systems with clock_gettime but without
+ CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE (9be5468)
+
+EVENT_BASE_ONCE LEAKS:
+ If a callback added by event_base_once() is never invoked, Libevent no
+ longer leaks internal memory.
+
+ o Free dangling event_once objects on event_base_free() (c17dd59)
+ o Add a unit test in which an event is created with event_base_once()
+ but never fires (4343edf)
+
+TESTING SUPPORT, FIXES AND IMPROVEMENTS:
+
+ Libevent now disables by default its unit tests that would touch the
+ network, or that tend to fail on heavily-loaded systems. To re-enable
+ them, invoke the ./test/regress program with the @all alias.
+
+ o Simplify test.sh code significantly. (9b856fd Ross Lagerwall)
+ o Make all tests that hit the network disabled by default (f2cea87)
+ o Avoid a resource leak on error in http client benchmark (ea92fba)
+ o Update to latest tinytest (911b4f0349377) (ef7c4f7)
+ o Avoid (unlikely) overflow in bench_httpclient.c (5671033)
+ o Shave 700 msec off the persistent_timeout_jump test (21205b8)
+ o Check return value of write() in regress.c (c8009d2)
+ o Make load-dependent monotonic timer tests off-by-default (2b6fe8b)
+ o Add deferred_cb_skew to list of timing-dependent tests (34c8f31)
+ o Avoid test -e; older shs don't have one. (f1bd938)
+ o Fix renegotiation test to work around openssl 1.0.1 bug (c2f3086)
+ o Fix a couple of compile warnings in the unit tests (5a9a014)
+
+MISC:
+ o Change evutil_weakrand_() to avoid platform random() (e86af4b Nicholas
+ Marriott, 3aa4415)
+
+INFRASTRUCTURE (Active-later events):
+ As a simplification and optimization to Libevent's "deferred callback"
+ logic (introduced in 2.0 to avoid callback recursion), Libevent now
+ treats all of its deferrable callback types using the same logic it uses
+ for active events. Now deferred events no longer cause priority
+ inversion, no longer require special code to cancel them, and so on.
+
+ o Refactor the callback part of an event into its own event_callback
+ type (cba59e5)
+ o Add "active later" event_callbacks to supersede deferred (745a63d)
+ o event_base_assert_ok: check value of event_active_count for
+ correctness (fec8bae)
+ o Replace deferred_cbs with event_callback-based implementation. (ae2b84b)
+ o Replace more deferred_cb names with event_callback (a4079aa)
+ o Give event_base_process_active a single exit path (581b5be)
+ o Restore our priority-inversion-prevention code with deferreds (c0e425a)
+ o Refactor event_persist_closure: raise and extract some common logic
+ (bec22b4)
+ o Remove the unused bits from EVLIST_ALL (9889a3d)

+Changes in version 2.1.1-alpha (4 Apr 2012)
+
+ Libevent 2.1.1-alpha includes a number of new features and performance
+ improvements. The log below tries to organize them by rough area of
+ effect. It omits some commits which were pure bugfixes on other commits

+ insight, see the "whatsnew-2.1.txt" document included in the Libevent
+ 2.1.1-alpha distribution.

+ o Clean up error handling in epoll_apply_one_change() a little (2d55a19)
+
+ Performance: Evport backend
+ o evport: use evmap_io to track fdinfo status. Should save time and
+ RAM. (4687ce4)
+ o evport: Remove a linear search over recent events when
+ reactivating them (0f77efe)
+ o evport: Use portev_user to remember fdinfo struct (276ec0e)
+ o evport: don't scan more events in ed_pending than needed (849a5cf)
