23 root 1.160 2.01 Tue Jul 24 09:02:34 CEST 2018
24     - try to work around a race condition that we can't identify
25     (patch suggested by Sadrak).
26    
27 root 1.159 2.0 Tue Jul 24 08:52:26 CEST 2018
28 root 1.118 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the node protocol used by this version is not
29 root 1.121 compatible to versions <2 - you have to upgrade all nodes.
30 root 1.124 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many APIs have changed, see the section
31     "PORTING FROM VERSION 1" in the AnyEvent::MP manpage for details.
32 root 1.121 - AnyEvent::MP::Global is now optional - only seed nodes autoload it
33     and create a fully-meshed network with each other, normal nodes only
34     have to connect to seed nodes, other connections are on-demand.
35 root 1.157 - remove md6 auth algorithms (and use algorithms based on SHA3 instead).
36     - implement CBOR framing and make it the preferred format.
37 root 1.118 - new "norc" and "force" options for MP::configure to ignore
38     or override the rc file.
39 root 1.151 - a shitload of minor and major fixes all reported and debugged
40     by Felix Ostmann.
41 root 1.116 - move seed code to Kernel.
42 root 1.136 - non-json receive framing was probably broken.
43 root 1.118 - fixed small typo in MP::Transport.
44     - fix (unused) provider-kv (version sometimes missing).
45     - reduce the default export list of MP::Kernel.
46 root 1.120 - reduced various random delays to zero, as they
47     are hopefully no longer needed with the new global
48     protocol.
49 root 1.148 - implement a secure mode that can suppress (some) code execution
50     requests.
51 root 1.122 - do not use GMP for generating alphanumeric strings even when
52     available, use a more tricky algorithm instead.
53 root 1.121 - anonymous node names and remote port names have been shortened
54     considerably.
55 root 1.136 - $AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::SRCNODE contains the node ID of the origin
56     node during message receives.
57 root 1.122 - aemp shell now supports "package" selection and offers an
58 root 1.138 $ECHO port you can send messages to.
59 root 1.122 - rely on perl rand() instead of using /dev/urandom when available, as
60     hopefully it is random enough.
61 root 1.123 - aemp shell no longer leaks one port per command.
62 root 1.125 - nodenames can contain %-escapes such as %n or %u.
63     - aemp now uses aemp/%n/%u as nodename.
64 root 1.143 - configure supports "eval", a small perl snippet to initialsie a node,
65     most useful in "aemp run eval ...".
66 root 1.124 - known_nodes is gone, it has little value, use all_nodes as
67     replacement.
68 root 1.125 - lots of small change and improvements.
69 root 1.134 - node_is_known has been removed.
70 root 1.129 - TRACE now shows the portid on SND.
71 root 1.145 - aggressively reduce number of external modules, to reduce
72     memory usage for nodes.
73 root 1.146 - rework most of the documentation.
74     - clean up MP::Kernel exports.
75 root 1.158 - include AnyEvent::MP in AnyEvent::MP::Kernel's @CARP_NOT to
76     hopefully improve error messages.
77 elmex 1.115
78 root 1.114 1.30 Thu Jun 30 11:30:39 CEST 2011
79     - connection errors at the right time would kill node
80     connections in a bad way (patch by Malcolm Studd).
81 root 1.107
82 root 1.113 1.29 Fri May 7 20:13:39 CEST 2010
83     - codename "Sadrak".
84 root 1.111 - fix error in callback at AnyEvent/MP/Global.pm line 339
85     (found by Sadrak).
86 root 1.108 - listener-less nodes had trouble sending keepalive
87 root 1.109 messages on write timeouts (found by Sadrak).
88     - the monitor guard could cause a memleak due
89     to autovivification if a mon was cleared after
90     the port was gone (analysed by Sadrak).
91 root 1.112 - do not overwrite the config file if we couldn't read it
92     for some reason (lesson demonstrated by Sadrak).
93 root 1.108
94 root 1.106 1.28 Thu Apr 1 21:23:54 CEST 2010
95 root 1.111 - accepted connections didn't correctly set up the SRCNODE
96 root 1.106 in some cases, leading to intra-node messages (such as monitoring)
97     to fail silently (great testcase by Sadrak).
98    
99 root 1.105 1.27 Sat Mar 20 21:11:16 CET 2010
100 root 1.101 - avoid exceptions in the transport code if the connection
101     fails during TLS negotiation.
102 root 1.102 - delay new address broadcasts in seednodes, to reduce the
103 root 1.103 likelyhood of nodes connecting at the same time, leading to
104 root 1.102 message loss.
105 root 1.104 - improve general message passing efficiency by 8%, and special
106     case json framing for a 50% speed increase.
107 root 1.99 - add hints how to interface to aemp nodes from other programming
108     languages using the aemp protocol in AnyEvent::MP::Transport
109     (it can really be quite simple).
110 root 1.100 - handle unsupported remote framings more gracefully.
111 root 1.99
112 root 1.98 1.26 Wed Dec 30 16:48:37 CET 2009
113 root 1.94 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the high-level node protocol changed,
114     all nodes need to upgrade.
115 root 1.93 - remote kil's did not work (reported by Eugene Grigoriev).
116 root 1.94 - documented monitor_timeout, connect_interval, auth_offer,
117     auth_accept, framing_format, autocork and nodelay options
118     and make them configurable via bin/aemp.
119 root 1.96 - some doc updates.
120     - remote kil's were not synchronous to message sends which affected
121     nobody, as remote kils were broken.
122 root 1.97 - remote mon/unmonitor requests were not synchronous to message
123     sends either sometimes, although it likely didnt matter.
124 root 1.92
125 root 1.91 1.24 Wed Dec 9 14:59:52 CET 2009
126 root 1.87 - codename "the foul egg".
127     - increased "unmonitored local port died" message level to 2, so
128     it is displayed by default now.
129 root 1.89 - generate random seed at configure time, not module loading time,
130     so fork&configure works as expected.
131 root 1.88 - decreased "seed"-related message priority in Global from 0 (d'oh)
132     to 9, as they are not signifcant.
133 root 1.85 - new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish
134     additional data connections between nodes.
135 root 1.84 - bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying
136     to call restart.
137 elmex 1.86 - bin/aemp setcert didn't properly handle the filename argument.
138 root 1.90 - removed empty and unused timeout= parameter from protocol greeting.
139 root 1.44
140 root 1.82 1.23 Fri Nov 6 18:46:26 CET 2009
141 root 1.80 - listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about
142     the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect
143     properly in all cases.
144 root 1.81 - messages send during node-up processing could sometimes get lost,
145     which would hamper global's ability to mesh the network.
146     - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also
147     in scalar context.
148     - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::mon_nodes to return a guard also
149     in scalar context.
150 root 1.79 - try to improve error reporting when automatically loading
151     a function - being unable to load a module will now
152     stop the process and report the error.
153 elmex 1.78
154 root 1.77 1.22 Sat Oct 17 03:41:47 CEST 2009
155     - fix two rcv-bugs: after adding a tagged rcv, the default
156     callback would not be used or changed anymore (reported
157     by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann, with apologies for
158     taking so long to releae the fix).
159 root 1.76 - added Coro::MP introduction to AnyEvent::MP::Intro.
160 root 1.75 - add peval function.
161    
162 root 1.74 1.21 Mon Oct 5 21:58:36 CEST 2009
163 root 1.72 - always delay kil messages.
164 root 1.74 - remote monitor requests were never cleaned up (found by
165     Sadrak and analysed by elmex).
166     - move $VERSION to AnyEvent::MP and AnyEvent::MP only.
167 root 1.72
168 root 1.71 1.2 Thu Oct 1 22:59:35 CEST 2009
169 root 1.70 - fix a rather big bug where message processing could be
170     inhibited completely.
171 root 1.65 - grp_mon could not return a guard due to a typo.
172 root 1.66 - implement primitive aemp shell.
173 root 1.67 - do not use bound address as listen length (reported by

181     were too many bugfixes/changes.
182     - new function AnyEvent::MP::cal for simple rpc.
183 root 1.49 - renamed AnyEvent::MP::Global functions to grp_reg|get|mon.
184 root 1.63 - implemented monitoring for Global groups.
185 root 1.50 - removed all userspace time-outs from the transport, instead
186     rely on tcp retransmit timeouts and tcp keepalive.
187 root 1.48 - spawn now delays spawns on the local node artificially, so
188     it can return before invoking the init function.
189 root 1.55 - break endless recursion between ping-pong ports on the local
190     node after ~50 iterations.
191 root 1.47 - support JSON-encoded aemp arguments.

193 root 1.52 - support for starting init functions with parameters added.
194 root 1.53 - data_format, auth_offer and auth_accept are now configurable, albeit
195     not documented.
196 root 1.54 - new service: AnyEvent::MP::LogCatcher.
197 root 1.58 - rely on perl srand'ing better than we could.
198     - try to backport to 5.8.2, unfortunately, recursive dependencies
199     rely on Module::Build, which fails at 5.8.7, so YMMV.
200     - use a vastly different reseeding strategy.
201 root 1.61 - use seed nodes to notify nodes about new nodes.
202 root 1.63 - in the case where a ndoe learns new addresses after it tried
203     connecting, prefer the new addrseses over the old ones.
204 root 1.46
205 root 1.45 1.0 Wed Sep 2 20:40:43 CEST 2009
206 root 1.44 - randomise more connection times, but reduce delay to 0.2s (seeds)

211 root 1.43 - tutorial finally covers all the basics, maybe not optimally, but it
212     is covered.
213 root 1.38 - rename initialise_node to configure and accepts key => value
214     pairs for configuration.
215 root 1.33 - give aemp a full manpage.
216 root 1.30 - bin/aemp now expects comma-separated lists and supports multiple
217     subcommands.
218 root 1.31 - new aemp eval subcommand.

220 root 1.31 - nodes get freed when no longer needed.
221 root 1.35 - support "*" hostname to specify all local interface addresses
222     (without localhost etc.).
223 root 1.38 - support "*" port to specify a dynamically-assigned port (which

226 root 1.30
227 root 1.29 0.9 Sat Aug 29 18:47:45 CEST 2009
228     - tutorial was updated to reflect the current API, but
229 root 1.43 does not touch monitoring yet.
