23 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the node protocol used by this version is not
24 compatible to versions <2 - you have to upgrade all node
25 - new "norc" and "force" options for MP::configure to ignore
26 or override the rc file.
27 - move seed code to Kernel.
28 - fixed small typo in MP::Transport.
29 - fix (unused) provider-kv (version sometimes missing).
30 - reduce the default export list of MP::Kernel.
31
321.30 Thu Jun 30 11:30:39 CEST 2011
33 - connection errors at the right time would kill node
34 connections in a bad way (patch by Malcolm Studd).
35
361.29 Fri May 7 20:13:39 CEST 2010
37 - codename "Sadrak".
38 - fix error in callback at AnyEvent/MP/Global.pm line 339
39 (found by Sadrak).
40 - listener-less nodes had trouble sending keepalive
41 messages on write timeouts (found by Sadrak).
42 - the monitor guard could cause a memleak due
43 to autovivification if a mon was cleared after
44 the port was gone (analysed by Sadrak).
45 - do not overwrite the config file if we couldn't read it
46 for some reason (lesson demonstrated by Sadrak).
47
481.28 Thu Apr 1 21:23:54 CEST 2010
49 - accepted connections didn't correctly set up the SRCNODE
50 in some cases, leading to intra-node messages (such as monitoring)
51 to fail silently (great testcase by Sadrak).
52
531.27 Sat Mar 20 21:11:16 CET 2010
54 - avoid exceptions in the transport code if the connection
55 fails during TLS negotiation.
56 - delay new address broadcasts in seednodes, to reduce the
57 likelyhood of nodes connecting at the same time, leading to
58 message loss.
59 - improve general message passing efficiency by 8%, and special
60 case json framing for a 50% speed increase.
61 - add hints how to interface to aemp nodes from other programming
62 languages using the aemp protocol in AnyEvent::MP::Transport
63 (it can really be quite simple).
64 - handle unsupported remote framings more gracefully.
65
661.26 Wed Dec 30 16:48:37 CET 2009
67 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the high-level node protocol changed,
68 all nodes need to upgrade.
69 - remote kil's did not work (reported by Eugene Grigoriev).
70 - documented monitor_timeout, connect_interval, auth_offer,
71 auth_accept, framing_format, autocork and nodelay options
72 and make them configurable via bin/aemp.
73 - some doc updates.
74 - remote kil's were not synchronous to message sends which affected
75 nobody, as remote kils were broken.
76 - remote mon/unmonitor requests were not synchronous to message
77 sends either sometimes, although it likely didnt matter.
78
791.24 Wed Dec 9 14:59:52 CET 2009
80 - codename "the foul egg".
81 - increased "unmonitored local port died" message level to 2, so
82 it is displayed by default now.
83 - generate random seed at configure time, not module loading time,
84 so fork&configure works as expected.
85 - decreased "seed"-related message priority in Global from 0 (d'oh)
86 to 9, as they are not signifcant.
87 - new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish
88 additional data connections between nodes.
89 - bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying
90 to call restart.
91 - bin/aemp setcert didn't properly handle the filename argument.
92 - removed empty and unused timeout= parameter from protocol greeting.
93
941.23 Fri Nov 6 18:46:26 CET 2009
95 - listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about
96 the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect
97 properly in all cases.
98 - messages send during node-up processing could sometimes get lost,
99 which would hamper global's ability to mesh the network.
100 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also
101 in scalar context.
102 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::mon_nodes to return a guard also
103 in scalar context.
104 - try to improve error reporting when automatically loading
105 a function - being unable to load a module will now
106 stop the process and report the error.
107
1081.22 Sat Oct 17 03:41:47 CEST 2009
109 - fix two rcv-bugs: after adding a tagged rcv, the default
110 callback would not be used or changed anymore (reported
111 by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann, with apologies for
112 taking so long to releae the fix).
113 - added Coro::MP introduction to AnyEvent::MP::Intro.
114 - add peval function.
115
1161.21 Mon Oct 5 21:58:36 CEST 2009
117 - always delay kil messages.
118 - remote monitor requests were never cleaned up (found by
119 Sadrak and analysed by elmex).
120 - move $VERSION to AnyEvent::MP and AnyEvent::MP only.
121
1221.2 Thu Oct 1 22:59:35 CEST 2009
123 - fix a rather big bug where message processing could be
124 inhibited completely.
125 - grp_mon could not return a guard due to a typo.
126 - implement primitive aemp shell.
127 - do not use bound address as listen length (reported by
128 Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostman).
129 - no longer export an undefined "reg" function from AE::MP.
130 - the mon_guard return value no longer keeps an additional
131 reference to the passed refs.
132
1331.1 Fri Sep 11 04:34:03 CEST 2009
134 - bumped the transport protocol to version 1 - sorry, but there
135 were too many bugfixes/changes.
136 - new function AnyEvent::MP::cal for simple rpc.
137 - renamed AnyEvent::MP::Global functions to grp_reg|get|mon.
138 - implemented monitoring for Global groups.
139 - removed all userspace time-outs from the transport, instead
140 rely on tcp retransmit timeouts and tcp keepalive.
141 - spawn now delays spawns on the local node artificially, so
142 it can return before invoking the init function.
143 - break endless recursion between ping-pong ports on the local
144 node after ~50 iterations.
145 - support JSON-encoded aemp arguments.
146 - added aemp restart.
147 - support for starting init functions with parameters added.
148 - data_format, auth_offer and auth_accept are now configurable, albeit
149 not documented.
150 - new service: AnyEvent::MP::LogCatcher.
151 - rely on perl srand'ing better than we could.
152 - try to backport to 5.8.2, unfortunately, recursive dependencies
153 rely on Module::Build, which fails at 5.8.7, so YMMV.
154 - use a vastly different reseeding strategy.
155 - use seed nodes to notify nodes about new nodes.
156 - in the case where a ndoe learns new addresses after it tried
157 connecting, prefer the new addrseses over the old ones.
158
1591.0 Wed Sep 2 20:40:43 CEST 2009
160 - randomise more connection times, but reduce delay to 0.2s (seeds)
161 and 0.05s (normal connects).
162 - upgrade to and require AnyEvent::Watchdog 1.0.
163
1640.95 Mon Aug 31 22:03:55 CEST 2009
165 - tutorial finally covers all the basics, maybe not optimally, but it
166 is covered.
167 - rename initialise_node to configure and accepts key => value
168 pairs for configuration.
169 - give aemp a full manpage.
170 - bin/aemp now expects comma-separated lists and supports multiple
171 subcommands.
172 - new aemp eval subcommand.
173 - new aemp parent subcommand.
174 - nodes get freed when no longer needed.
175 - support "*" hostname to specify all local interface addresses
176 (without localhost etc.).
177 - support "*" port to specify a dynamically-assigned port (which
178 is the default now).
179 - fix per-transport memory leak.
180
1810.9 Sat Aug 29 18:47:45 CEST 2009
182 - tutorial was updated to reflect the current API, but
183 does not touch monitoring yet.
184 - got rid of noderefs and slave nodes entirely, introduce
185 free-text node identifiers and anonymous nodes.
186 - document security issues with tls_anon method and introduce
187 optional tls_md6_64_256 method.
188
1890.8 Wed Aug 19 07:54:50 CEST 2009
5 - added AnyEvent::MP::Global service. 190 - added AnyEvent::MP::Global service.
6 - support "package::" names as service names. 191 - support "package::" names as service names.
7 - many, many, many bugfixes and tweaks. 192 - many, many, many bugfixes and tweaks.
