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 Use finalization feature so bufferevents can avoid deadlocks (02fbf68) o Always run pending finalizers when event_base_free() is called (e9ebef8) 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) Evdns 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.

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) BUILD IMPROVEMENTS: Libevent 2.1.2-alpha modernizes Libevent's use of autotools, and makes numerous other build system.

Wren) o Use EVUTIL_SOCKET_ERROR() wrapper to save/restore errno in evhttp_connection_fail_ (7afbd60) o preserve errno in evhttp_connection_fail_ for inspection by the callback (36d0ee5 Patrick Pelletier) BUGFIXES: o Correctly handle running on a system where accept4 doesn't work.
