IO 1.41 -- Dec 12 2019 - Ricardo Signes * [ TRIAL RELEASE ] * import the latest from blead, so some changes may be in intermediate versions found only in releases of perl5 * (perl #133936) make send() a bit saner * (perl #133936) document differences between IO::Socket::* and builtin * (perl #133936) ensure TO is honoured for UDP $sock->send() * Remove vestiges of mpeix support (removed in 5.17.x) * Documentation formatting fixes * Improve isolation of tests as they run IO 1.38 -- Apr 19 2018 - Todd Rinaldo * Remove pre 5.8 logic from code base. * Bump all IO modules to 1.38 and set required Perl to 5.8.1 * Fix for perl #125723 * IO test: adjust require for non CORE perl * IO::Handle - fix precedence issue * Document IO::Select error detection * Rely on C89 * (perl #130856) deal with unpack_sockaddr_un() croaking * Switch most open() calls to three-argument form. * (perl #129788) IO::Poll: fix memory leak * (perl #128095) check pack_sockaddr_un()'s return value * dist/: remove . from @INC when loading optional modules * Fix IO::Handle documentation mangled by a manually applied patch * Make IO::Poll->poll call _poll even with an empty fd array * Fix assertion when calling IO::Poll::_poll() with an empty fd array * Some BSD implementations might have instead of . IO 1.36 -- Jun 26 2015 (Not released to CPAN) * dist/IO/t/io_utf8argv.t: Generalize for non-ASCII platforms. * VMS does have fsync, so configure accordingly. * Skip obsolete skip in io_xs.t. * Label conditionally unused. * Use if available before going select(). * Fix assertion when calling IO::Poll::_poll() with an empty fd array * Make IO::Poll->poll call _poll even with an empty fd array IO 1.35 -- Dec 7 2014 (Not released to CPAN) * Change OP_SIBLING to OpSIBLING * Improve connected() doc * IRIX: fsync documented to fail on read-only filehandles. * Convert all use of Test.pm to Test::More IO 1.34 -- Sep 10 2014 (Not released to CPAN) * Add dual life support for use of op_sibling in IO.xs IO 1.33 -- Jun 10 2014 (Not released to CPAN) * wrap op_sibling field access in OP_SIBLING* macros * Make like() and unlike() in t/test.pl refuse non-qr// arguments * Further simplify the sockatmark(). (And do not assign the fd in PREINIT.) IO 1.32 -- May 29 2014 (Not released to CPAN) * fcntl receiving -1 from fileno, fcntl failing. * Also very few spots of negative numgroups for getgroups(), and fgetc() return, but almost all checking is for fcntl. * merged fix for perl #121743 and perl #121745: hopefully picked up all the fixes-to-fixes from the ticket. * Fix for Coverity perl5 CIDs 28990..29003,29005..29011,29013,45354,45363,49926 * Argument cannot be negative (NEGATIVE_RETURNS) fd is passed to a parameter that cannot be negative. * CIDs 29004, 29012: Argument cannot be negative (NEGATIVE_RETURNS) num_groups is passed to a parameter that cannot be negative and because of CIDs 29005 and 29006 also CID 28924. * In the first set of issues a fd is retrieved from PerlIO_fileno, and that is then used in places like fstat(), fchown(), dup(), etc., without checking whether the fd is valid (>=0). * In the second set of issues a potentially negative number is potentially passed to getgroups(). * The CIDs 29005 and 29006 were a bit messy: fixing them needed also resolving CID 28924 where the return value of fstat() was ignored, and for completeness adding two croak calls (with perldiag updates): a bit of a waste since it's suidperl code. IO 1.31 -- Mar 4 2014 (Not released to CPAN) * dist/IO: Allow to be dual-lived - This dual-lived module has not been able to be compiled on releases earlier than 5.10.1. * IO::Socket::INET: Handle getprotobyn{ame,umber} not being available * dist/IO/t/io_pipe.t: Work around android only having an inbuilt echo * Add examples for IO::Socket::UNIX. * Remove an old note about autoflush from the POD. * ioctl on perlhost platforms take a char*, not void* IO 1.30 -- Nov 13 2013 (Not released to CPAN) * IO.xs: fix compiler warning * [perl #75156] fix the return value and bits for removing a closed fh * [perl #75156] tests for deleting a closed handle from IO::Select * Fix IO::Socket::connect() in the light of $! changes IO 1.29 -- Mar 15 2013 (Not released to CPAN) * Use separate macros for byte vs uv Unicode * IO::Socket::INET's documentation for its Listen parameter was somewhat misleading, and the documentation for IO::Socket::Unix even more so. * Address [perl #117999] for now by skipping known bad test on AIX * [perl #117791] Clarify that write does not match the C 'write' semantics * fix dist/IO/t/cachepropagate-unix.t IO 1.28 -- Feb 2 2013 (Not released to CPAN) * dist/IO/IO.xs: Silence compiler warning. This variable is unused, doesn't need to be declared.

It was io_multihomed.t that I meant (my mistake), and that is now covered by #34155. * watchdog() some IO tests * Some more missing isGV_with_GP()s * IO::Dir destructor * IO::Socket::INET unnecessarily resolves "udp" * IO::Handle->say should ignore $\ (bug #49266) * consting IO.xs * Net::SMTP can't send large messages with bleadperl * Fix for IO::Socket send method * Fixes for the test suite on OS/2 * Silence VC++ compiler warnings * IO::Socket's IO.xs fails to compile * IO::Socket::connect returns wrong errno on timeout * Coverity correctly reports that gv might (just) be NULL.

IO::Handle no longer contains an AUTOLOAD sub in it's ISA hier o IO::Seekable - Remove clearerr, as it is defined in IO.xs o IO.xs - Patched IO.xs with patch from Chip for setvbuf warning - Added XS sub "constant" for backwards compatibility o Misc - Fixed IO::Socket::configure, it was not passing $arg to domain specific package - Changed all $fh variables in IO::Handle to $io and all $fh variables in IO::Socket to $sock as Chip suggested - Fixed usage messages to be consistent *** Release 1.15 Sun 19 Jan 1997 Graham Barr o Updated PODs for IO::Handle and IO::File o Modified IO.xs so that DESTROY gets called on IO::File objects that were created with IO::File->new_tmpfile o Modified the domain2pkg code in IO::Socket so that it does not use blessed refs o Created a new package IO::Pipe::End so that pipe specific stuff can be moved out of IO::Handle. o Added Ilya's OS/2 changes to Pipe.pm and io_pipe.t o These changes happened sometime before the release of 1.15 - added shutdown to IO::Socket - modified connect to not use alarm - modified accept and connect to use IO::Select *** Release 1.14 Tue 24 Dec 1996 Graham Barr o Updated to patches in perl core dist. o Added C to all modules o Modified t/io_sock.t, hopefully the race condition has gone o Added close statements to reader/writer in IO::Pipe o IO::Handle::syswrite was calling sysread, fixed :-) *** Release 1.12 Thu 19 Sep 1996 Graham Barr o Modified IO.xs so that it will compile with pre perlio version of perl (ie pre perl5.003_02) o Modified IO::Socket::send so not to pass 4 arguments to send if the socket is connected *** Release 1.10 Mon 11 Sep 1996 Graham Barr o Fixed a bug in IO::Socket which caused DESTROY to be called on a partly initialised connection o Changed IO.xs to use Perlio o Modified usage message to report correct package o Added IO::File::new changes from Chip, to allow PERM to be passed o Added sysread and syswrite methods to IO::Handle o Updated documentation o Fixed a bug in IO::Select that caused a hang if the last handle was removed. o Added count method to IO::Select o Renamed and modified tests so that they can be copied into the perl distribution o Added fcntl and ioctl methods to IO::Handle Thu 25 Jul 1996 Graham Barr o It is now not necessary to call the domain sub-classes of IO::Socket. when connect is called it notes the domain. Domain specific methods, which are normally non-critical, are called via this note-ing. o Added methods to IO::Socket to retrieve the domain, type and protocol of a given socket Tue 23 Jul 1996 Graham Barr o IO::Socket::connect changed how we do timeouts, as it did not work o IO::Handle::new_from_fd removed method call to _ref_fd, which was a leftover from FileHandle Fri 28 Jun 1996 Graham Barr o Modified IO::Socket::UNIX::configure to default to using a socket type of SOCK_STREAM if no type is specified.
