24     2.02 Sun Jul 29 04:22:53 CEST 2018
25     - hardcode version in MP.pm to help the CPAN indexer.
26 root 1.154
27 root 1.160 2.01 Tue Jul 24 09:02:34 CEST 2018
28     - try to work around a race condition that we can't identify
29     (patch suggested by Sadrak).
30    
31 root 1.159 2.0 Tue Jul 24 08:52:26 CEST 2018
32 root 1.118 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the node protocol used by this version is not
33 root 1.121 compatible to versions <2 - you have to upgrade all nodes.
34 root 1.124 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many APIs have changed, see the section
35     "PORTING FROM VERSION 1" in the AnyEvent::MP manpage for details.
36 root 1.121 - AnyEvent::MP::Global is now optional - only seed nodes autoload it
37     and create a fully-meshed network with each other, normal nodes only
38     have to connect to seed nodes, other connections are on-demand.
39 root 1.157 - remove md6 auth algorithms (and use algorithms based on SHA3 instead).
40     - implement CBOR framing and make it the preferred format.
41 root 1.118 - new "norc" and "force" options for MP::configure to ignore
42     or override the rc file.
43 root 1.151 - a shitload of minor and major fixes all reported and debugged
44     by Felix Ostmann.
45 root 1.116 - move seed code to Kernel.
46 root 1.136 - non-json receive framing was probably broken.
47 root 1.118 - fixed small typo in MP::Transport.
48     - fix (unused) provider-kv (version sometimes missing).
49     - reduce the default export list of MP::Kernel.
50 root 1.120 - reduced various random delays to zero, as they
51     are hopefully no longer needed with the new global
52     protocol.
53 root 1.148 - implement a secure mode that can suppress (some) code execution
54     requests.
55 root 1.122 - do not use GMP for generating alphanumeric strings even when
56     available, use a more tricky algorithm instead.
57 root 1.121 - anonymous node names and remote port names have been shortened
58     considerably.
59 root 1.136 - $AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::SRCNODE contains the node ID of the origin
60     node during message receives.
61 root 1.122 - aemp shell now supports "package" selection and offers an
62 root 1.138 $ECHO port you can send messages to.
63 root 1.122 - rely on perl rand() instead of using /dev/urandom when available, as
64     hopefully it is random enough.
65 root 1.123 - aemp shell no longer leaks one port per command.
66 root 1.125 - nodenames can contain %-escapes such as %n or %u.
67     - aemp now uses aemp/%n/%u as nodename.
68 root 1.143 - configure supports "eval", a small perl snippet to initialsie a node,
69     most useful in "aemp run eval ...".
70 root 1.124 - known_nodes is gone, it has little value, use all_nodes as
71     replacement.
72 root 1.125 - lots of small change and improvements.
73 root 1.134 - node_is_known has been removed.
74 root 1.129 - TRACE now shows the portid on SND.
75 root 1.145 - aggressively reduce number of external modules, to reduce
76     memory usage for nodes.
77 root 1.146 - rework most of the documentation.
78     - clean up MP::Kernel exports.
79 root 1.158 - include AnyEvent::MP in AnyEvent::MP::Kernel's @CARP_NOT to
80     hopefully improve error messages.
81 elmex 1.115
82 root 1.114 1.30 Thu Jun 30 11:30:39 CEST 2011
83     - connection errors at the right time would kill node
84     connections in a bad way (patch by Malcolm Studd).
85 root 1.107
86 root 1.113 1.29 Fri May 7 20:13:39 CEST 2010
87     - codename "Sadrak".
88 root 1.111 - fix error in callback at AnyEvent/MP/Global.pm line 339
89     (found by Sadrak).
90 root 1.108 - listener-less nodes had trouble sending keepalive
91 root 1.109 messages on write timeouts (found by Sadrak).
92     - the monitor guard could cause a memleak due
93     to autovivification if a mon was cleared after
94     the port was gone (analysed by Sadrak).
95 root 1.112 - do not overwrite the config file if we couldn't read it
96     for some reason (lesson demonstrated by Sadrak).
97 root 1.108
98 root 1.106 1.28 Thu Apr 1 21:23:54 CEST 2010
99 root 1.111 - accepted connections didn't correctly set up the SRCNODE
100 root 1.106 in some cases, leading to intra-node messages (such as monitoring)
101     to fail silently (great testcase by Sadrak).
102    
103 root 1.105 1.27 Sat Mar 20 21:11:16 CET 2010
104 root 1.101 - avoid exceptions in the transport code if the connection
105     fails during TLS negotiation.
106 root 1.102 - delay new address broadcasts in seednodes, to reduce the
107 root 1.103 likelyhood of nodes connecting at the same time, leading to
108 root 1.102 message loss.
109 root 1.104 - improve general message passing efficiency by 8%, and special
110     case json framing for a 50% speed increase.
111 root 1.99 - add hints how to interface to aemp nodes from other programming
112     languages using the aemp protocol in AnyEvent::MP::Transport
113     (it can really be quite simple).
114 root 1.100 - handle unsupported remote framings more gracefully.
115 root 1.99
116 root 1.98 1.26 Wed Dec 30 16:48:37 CET 2009
117 root 1.94 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the high-level node protocol changed,
118     all nodes need to upgrade.
119 root 1.93 - remote kil's did not work (reported by Eugene Grigoriev).
120 root 1.94 - documented monitor_timeout, connect_interval, auth_offer,
121     auth_accept, framing_format, autocork and nodelay options
122     and make them configurable via bin/aemp.
123 root 1.96 - some doc updates.
124     - remote kil's were not synchronous to message sends which affected
125     nobody, as remote kils were broken.
126 root 1.97 - remote mon/unmonitor requests were not synchronous to message
127     sends either sometimes, although it likely didnt matter.
128 root 1.92
129 root 1.91 1.24 Wed Dec 9 14:59:52 CET 2009
130 root 1.87 - codename "the foul egg".
131     - increased "unmonitored local port died" message level to 2, so
132     it is displayed by default now.
133 root 1.89 - generate random seed at configure time, not module loading time,
134     so fork&configure works as expected.
135 root 1.88 - decreased "seed"-related message priority in Global from 0 (d'oh)
136     to 9, as they are not signifcant.
137 root 1.85 - new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish
138     additional data connections between nodes.
139 root 1.84 - bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying
140     to call restart.
141 elmex 1.86 - bin/aemp setcert didn't properly handle the filename argument.
142 root 1.90 - removed empty and unused timeout= parameter from protocol greeting.
143 root 1.44
144 root 1.82 1.23 Fri Nov 6 18:46:26 CET 2009
145 root 1.80 - listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about
146     the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect
147     properly in all cases.
148 root 1.81 - messages send during node-up processing could sometimes get lost,
149     which would hamper global's ability to mesh the network.
150     - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also
151     in scalar context.
152     - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::mon_nodes to return a guard also
153     in scalar context.
154 root 1.79 - try to improve error reporting when automatically loading
155     a function - being unable to load a module will now
156     stop the process and report the error.
157 elmex 1.78
158 root 1.77 1.22 Sat Oct 17 03:41:47 CEST 2009
159     - fix two rcv-bugs: after adding a tagged rcv, the default
160     callback would not be used or changed anymore (reported
161     by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann, with apologies for
162     taking so long to releae the fix).
163 root 1.76 - added Coro::MP introduction to AnyEvent::MP::Intro.
164 root 1.75 - add peval function.
165    
166 root 1.74 1.21 Mon Oct 5 21:58:36 CEST 2009
167 root 1.72 - always delay kil messages.
168 root 1.74 - remote monitor requests were never cleaned up (found by
169     Sadrak and analysed by elmex).
170     - move $VERSION to AnyEvent::MP and AnyEvent::MP only.
171 root 1.72
172 root 1.71 1.2 Thu Oct 1 22:59:35 CEST 2009
173 root 1.70 - fix a rather big bug where message processing could be
174     inhibited completely.
175 root 1.65 - grp_mon could not return a guard due to a typo.
176 root 1.66 - implement primitive aemp shell.
177 root 1.67 - do not use bound address as listen length (reported by

186     - new function AnyEvent::MP::cal for simple rpc.
187 root 1.49 - renamed AnyEvent::MP::Global functions to grp_reg|get|mon.
188 root 1.63 - implemented monitoring for Global groups.
189 root 1.50 - removed all userspace time-outs from the transport, instead
190     rely on tcp retransmit timeouts and tcp keepalive.
191 root 1.48 - spawn now delays spawns on the local node artificially, so
192     it can return before invoking the init function.
193 root 1.55 - break endless recursion between ping-pong ports on the local
194     node after ~50 iterations.
195 root 1.47 - support JSON-encoded aemp arguments.
196 root 1.51 - added aemp restart.
197 root 1.52 - support for starting init functions with parameters added.
198 root 1.53 - data_format, auth_offer and auth_accept are now configurable, albeit
199     not documented.
200 root 1.54 - new service: AnyEvent::MP::LogCatcher.
201 root 1.58 - rely on perl srand'ing better than we could.
202     - try to backport to 5.8.2, unfortunately, recursive dependencies
203     rely on Module::Build, which fails at 5.8.7, so YMMV.
204     - use a vastly different reseeding strategy.
205 root 1.61 - use seed nodes to notify nodes about new nodes.
206 root 1.63 - in the case where a ndoe learns new addresses after it tried
207     connecting, prefer the new addrseses over the old ones.
208 root 1.46
209 root 1.45 1.0 Wed Sep 2 20:40:43 CEST 2009
210 root 1.44 - randomise more connection times, but reduce delay to 0.2s (seeds)

218     pairs for configuration.
219 root 1.33 - give aemp a full manpage.
220 root 1.30 - bin/aemp now expects comma-separated lists and supports multiple
221     subcommands.
222 root 1.31 - new aemp eval subcommand.

224 root 1.31 - nodes get freed when no longer needed.
225 root 1.35 - support "*" hostname to specify all local interface addresses
226     (without localhost etc.).

230 root 1.30
231 root 1.29 0.9 Sat Aug 29 18:47:45 CEST 2009
232     - tutorial was updated to reflect the current API, but
233 root 1.43 does not touch monitoring yet.
