Nick Mathewson ab96b5f3 2009-11-09T18:30:33 Add an option to disable the timeval cache. svn:r1518
Nick Mathewson 693c24ef 2009-11-09T17:16:30 Implement queued timeouts for case where many timeouts are the same. Libevent's current timeout code is relatively optimized for the randomly scattered timeout case, where events are added with their timeouts in no particular order. We add and remove timeouts with O(lg n) behavior. Frequently, however, an application will want to have many timeouts of the same value. For example, we might have 1000 bufferevents, each with a 2 second timeout on reading or writing. If we knew this were always the case, we could just put timeouts in a queue and get O(1) add and remove behavior. Of course, a queue would give O(n) performance for a scattered timeout pattern, so we don't want to just switch the implementation. This patch gives the user the ability to explicitly tag certain timeout values as being "very common". These timeout values have a cookie encoded in the high bits of their tv_usec field to indicate which queue they belong on. The queues themselves are each triggered by an entry in the minheap. See the regress_main.c code for an example use. svn:r1517
Nick Mathewson e9ee1057 2009-10-27T04:25:45 Give event_assign a return value, and make it less inclined to exit(). We also refactor event_assign so that it is the core function, and event_set() is only the wrapper. svn:r1469
Nick Mathewson a8267663 2009-10-26T19:59:51 API to replace all calls to exit() with a user-supplied fatal-error handler. Also, add unit tests for logging. svn:r1462
Nick Mathewson 879420a7 2009-10-23T22:00:29 Expose a narrow window to the IOCP code. svn:r1459
Nick Mathewson b73ad7bc 2009-10-21T18:48:22 Treat the bitwise OR of two enum values as an int. This makes our interfaces usable from C++, which doesn't believe you can say "bufferevent_socket_nase(base, -1, BEV_OPT_CLOSE_ON_FREE|BEV_OPT_DEFER_CALLBACKS)" but which instead would demand "static_cast<bufferevent_options>(BEV_OPT_CLOSE_ON_FREE| BEV_OPT_DEFER_CALLBACKS))" for the last argument. Diagnosis and patch from Chris Davis. svn:r1456
Nick Mathewson d5b640fc 2009-10-01T15:29:08 Apply Ka-Hing Cheung's event_base_got_[break|exit] patch, with locking and whitespace fixes. svn:r1438
Nick Mathewson d3bef1a1 2009-07-17T20:32:25 Finish implementing new convention that whenever an optional function is declared, a corresponding macro is defined. svn:r1361
Nick Mathewson eb97bb76 2009-05-28T15:58:28 Make the headers compile happily with pedantic C compilers. Original message from SF patch 2797966: While commas at the end of enumerator lists are valid in c99, they are not valid +in c89 nor in c++. When using gcc/g++ with the -pedantic flag, users will +receive a warning (gcc) or an error(g++) when including the event2/event.h and +event2/bufferevent.h. The errors look something like event2/event.h:159: error: comma at end of enumerator list Patch from Akita Noek on Sourceforge. svn:r1321
Nick Mathewson 0b4ab122 2009-05-28T15:47:15 Spell-check the the headers svn:r1320
Nick Mathewson b4886ec8 2009-05-15T18:44:44 Trim 22 bytes from struct event on 32 bit platforms, more on 64-bit platforms. svn:r1292

Nick Mathewson d5ca0763 2009-05-02T16:23:29 Move event_set() and friends to event2/event_compat.h. These functions are deprecated in favor of event_assign(). svn:r1267
Nick Mathewson 19594141 2009-04-29T20:48:21 Clarify semantics on event_pending() svn:r1249

Nick Mathewson 7fa8451d 2009-04-17T06:56:57 Add a configure flag to hardcode all of our mm functions. svn:r1186
Nick Mathewson ec35eb55 2009-02-12T22:19:54 Make threading functions global, like the mm_ functions. Use the libevent_pthread.la library in regress_pthread. svn:r1121
Nick Mathewson b85b710c 2009-01-27T22:34:36 Update copyright statements to reflect the facts that: a) this is 2009 b) niels and nick have been comaintainers for a while c) saying "all rights reserved" when you then go on to explicitly disclaim some rights is sheer cargo-cultism. svn:r1065
Nick Mathewson 9993137c 2009-01-27T21:10:31 Remove all trailing whitespace in all the source files. svn:r1063
Nick Mathewson bdbd5e0e 2009-01-26T17:09:37 For every deprecated function, explain why it is deprecated and what you should call instead. svn:r1052
Nick Mathewson f20902a2 2009-01-22T17:56:15 Remove evperiodic_assign and its related parts: its functionality is subsumed by EV_PERSIST timeouts. svn:r1040
Niels Provos d776f846 2008-12-23T22:23:37 deprecate the usage of signal_{add,del,set} and name it evsignal_{add,del,set} instead; move the old definitions to compat svn:r973

In fact, u_char can really just be spelled out, and u_short was usually just a bad way of saying ev_uint16_t. svn:r808
