24 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the node protocol used by this version is not
25 compatible to versions <2 - you have to upgrade all nodes.
26 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many APIs have changed, see the section
27 "PORTING FROM VERSION 1" in the AnyEvent::MP manpage for details.
28 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: remove md6 auth algorithms (and use algorithms
29 based on SHA3 instead).
30 - implement CBOR framing and make it the preferred format.
31 - AnyEvent::MP::Global is now optional - only seed nodes autoload it
32 and create a fully-meshed network with each other, normal nodes only
33 have to connect to seed nodes, other connections are on-demand.
34 - new "norc" and "force" options for MP::configure to ignore
35 or override the rc file.
36 - a shitload of minor and major fixes all reported and debugged
37 by Felix Ostmann.
38 - move seed code to Kernel.
39 - non-json receive framing was probably broken.
40 - fixed small typo in MP::Transport.
41 - fix (unused) provider-kv (version sometimes missing).
42 - reduce the default export list of MP::Kernel.
43 - reduced various random delays to zero, as they
44 are hopefully no longer needed with the new global
45 protocol.
46 - implement a secure mode that can suppress (some) code execution
47 requests.
48 - do not use GMP for generating alphanumeric strings even when
49 available, use a more tricky algorithm instead.
50 - anonymous node names and remote port names have been shortened
51 considerably.
52 - $AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::SRCNODE contains the node ID of the origin
53 node during message receives.
54 - aemp shell now supports "package" selection and offers an
55 $ECHO port you can send messages to.
56 - rely on perl rand() instead of using /dev/urandom when available, as
57 hopefully it is random enough.
58 - aemp shell no longer leaks one port per command.
59 - nodenames can contain %-escapes such as %n or %u.
60 - aemp now uses aemp/%n/%u as nodename.
61 - configure supports "eval", a small perl snippet to initialsie a node,
62 most useful in "aemp run eval ...".
63 - known_nodes is gone, it has little value, use all_nodes as
64 replacement.
65 - lots of small change and improvements.
66 - node_is_known has been removed.
67 - TRACE now shows the portid on SND.
68 - aggressively reduce number of external modules, to reduce
69 memory usage for nodes.
70 - rework most of the documentation.
71 - clean up MP::Kernel exports.
72
731.30 Thu Jun 30 11:30:39 CEST 2011
74 - connection errors at the right time would kill node
75 connections in a bad way (patch by Malcolm Studd).
76
771.29 Fri May 7 20:13:39 CEST 2010
78 - codename "Sadrak".
79 - fix error in callback at AnyEvent/MP/Global.pm line 339
80 (found by Sadrak).
81 - listener-less nodes had trouble sending keepalive
82 messages on write timeouts (found by Sadrak).
83 - the monitor guard could cause a memleak due
84 to autovivification if a mon was cleared after
85 the port was gone (analysed by Sadrak).
86 - do not overwrite the config file if we couldn't read it
87 for some reason (lesson demonstrated by Sadrak).
88
891.28 Thu Apr 1 21:23:54 CEST 2010
90 - accepted connections didn't correctly set up the SRCNODE
91 in some cases, leading to intra-node messages (such as monitoring)
92 to fail silently (great testcase by Sadrak).
93
941.27 Sat Mar 20 21:11:16 CET 2010
95 - avoid exceptions in the transport code if the connection
96 fails during TLS negotiation.
97 - delay new address broadcasts in seednodes, to reduce the
98 likelyhood of nodes connecting at the same time, leading to
99 message loss.
100 - improve general message passing efficiency by 8%, and special
101 case json framing for a 50% speed increase.
102 - add hints how to interface to aemp nodes from other programming
103 languages using the aemp protocol in AnyEvent::MP::Transport
104 (it can really be quite simple).
105 - handle unsupported remote framings more gracefully.
106
1071.26 Wed Dec 30 16:48:37 CET 2009
108 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the high-level node protocol changed,
109 all nodes need to upgrade.
110 - remote kil's did not work (reported by Eugene Grigoriev).
111 - documented monitor_timeout, connect_interval, auth_offer,
112 auth_accept, framing_format, autocork and nodelay options
113 and make them configurable via bin/aemp.
114 - some doc updates.
115 - remote kil's were not synchronous to message sends which affected
116 nobody, as remote kils were broken.
117 - remote mon/unmonitor requests were not synchronous to message
118 sends either sometimes, although it likely didnt matter.
119
1201.24 Wed Dec 9 14:59:52 CET 2009
121 - codename "the foul egg".
122 - increased "unmonitored local port died" message level to 2, so
123 it is displayed by default now.
124 - generate random seed at configure time, not module loading time,
125 so fork&configure works as expected.
126 - decreased "seed"-related message priority in Global from 0 (d'oh)
127 to 9, as they are not signifcant.
128 - new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish
129 additional data connections between nodes.
130 - bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying
131 to call restart.
132 - bin/aemp setcert didn't properly handle the filename argument.
133 - removed empty and unused timeout= parameter from protocol greeting.
134
1351.23 Fri Nov 6 18:46:26 CET 2009
136 - listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about
137 the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect
138 properly in all cases.
139 - messages send during node-up processing could sometimes get lost,
140 which would hamper global's ability to mesh the network.
141 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also
142 in scalar context.
143 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::mon_nodes to return a guard also
144 in scalar context.
145 - try to improve error reporting when automatically loading
146 a function - being unable to load a module will now
147 stop the process and report the error.
148
1491.22 Sat Oct 17 03:41:47 CEST 2009
150 - fix two rcv-bugs: after adding a tagged rcv, the default
151 callback would not be used or changed anymore (reported
152 by Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann, with apologies for
153 taking so long to releae the fix).
154 - added Coro::MP introduction to AnyEvent::MP::Intro.
155 - add peval function.
156
1571.21 Mon Oct 5 21:58:36 CEST 2009
158 - always delay kil messages.
159 - remote monitor requests were never cleaned up (found by
160 Sadrak and analysed by elmex).
161 - move $VERSION to AnyEvent::MP and AnyEvent::MP only.
162
1631.2 Thu Oct 1 22:59:35 CEST 2009
164 - fix a rather big bug where message processing could be
165 inhibited completely.
166 - grp_mon could not return a guard due to a typo.
167 - implement primitive aemp shell.
168 - do not use bound address as listen length (reported by
169 Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostman).
170 - no longer export an undefined "reg" function from AE::MP.
171 - the mon_guard return value no longer keeps an additional
172 reference to the passed refs.
173
1741.1 Fri Sep 11 04:34:03 CEST 2009
175 - bumped the transport protocol to version 1 - sorry, but there
176 were too many bugfixes/changes.
177 - new function AnyEvent::MP::cal for simple rpc.
178 - renamed AnyEvent::MP::Global functions to grp_reg|get|mon.
179 - implemented monitoring for Global groups.
180 - removed all userspace time-outs from the transport, instead
181 rely on tcp retransmit timeouts and tcp keepalive.
182 - spawn now delays spawns on the local node artificially, so
183 it can return before invoking the init function.
184 - break endless recursion between ping-pong ports on the local
185 node after ~50 iterations.
186 - support JSON-encoded aemp arguments.
187 - added aemp restart.
188 - support for starting init functions with parameters added.
189 - data_format, auth_offer and auth_accept are now configurable, albeit
190 not documented.
191 - new service: AnyEvent::MP::LogCatcher.
192 - rely on perl srand'ing better than we could.
193 - try to backport to 5.8.2, unfortunately, recursive dependencies
194 rely on Module::Build, which fails at 5.8.7, so YMMV.
195 - use a vastly different reseeding strategy.
196 - use seed nodes to notify nodes about new nodes.
197 - in the case where a ndoe learns new addresses after it tried
198 connecting, prefer the new addrseses over the old ones.
199
2001.0 Wed Sep 2 20:40:43 CEST 2009
201 - randomise more connection times, but reduce delay to 0.2s (seeds)
202 and 0.05s (normal connects).
203 - upgrade to and require AnyEvent::Watchdog 1.0.
204
2050.95 Mon Aug 31 22:03:55 CEST 2009
206 - tutorial finally covers all the basics, maybe not optimally, but it
207 is covered.
