20 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the node protocol used by this version is not
21 compatible to versions <2 - you have to upgrade all nodes.
22 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many APIs have changed, see the section
23 "PORTING FROM VERSION 1" in the AnyEvent::MP manpage for details.
24 - AnyEvent::MP::Global is now optional - only seed nodes autoload it
25 and create a fully-meshed network with each other, normal nodes only
26 have to connect to seed nodes, other connections are on-demand.
27 - new "norc" and "force" options for MP::configure to ignore
28 or override the rc file.
29 - move seed code to Kernel.
30 - fixed small typo in MP::Transport.
31 - fix (unused) provider-kv (version sometimes missing).
32 - reduce the default export list of MP::Kernel.
33 - reduced various random delays to zero, as they
34 are hopefully no longer needed with the new global
35 protocol.
36 - implement a secure mode that can suppress remote code execution
37 requests on a per-node/per-request basis.
38 - do not use GMP for generating alphanumeric strings even when
39 available, use a more tricky algorithm instead.
40 - anonymous node names and remote port names have been shortened
41 considerably.
42 - aemp shell now supports "package" selection and offers an
43 $ECHO port you cna send messages to.
44 - rely on perl rand() instead of using /dev/urandom when available, as
45 hopefully it is random enough.
46 - aemp shell no longer leaks one port per command.
47 - nodenames can contain %-escapes such as %n or %u.
48 - aemp now uses aemp/%n/%u as nodename.
49 - known_nodes is gone, it has little value, use all_nodes as
50 replacement.
51 - lots of small change and improvements.
52
531.30 Thu Jun 30 11:30:39 CEST 2011
54 - connection errors at the right time would kill node
55 connections in a bad way (patch by Malcolm Studd).
56
571.29 Fri May 7 20:13:39 CEST 2010
58 - codename "Sadrak".
59 - fix error in callback at AnyEvent/MP/Global.pm line 339
60 (found by Sadrak).
61 - listener-less nodes had trouble sending keepalive
62 messages on write timeouts (found by Sadrak).
63 - the monitor guard could cause a memleak due
64 to autovivification if a mon was cleared after
65 the port was gone (analysed by Sadrak).
66 - do not overwrite the config file if we couldn't read it
67 for some reason (lesson demonstrated by Sadrak).
68
691.28 Thu Apr 1 21:23:54 CEST 2010
70 - accepted connections didn't correctly set up the SRCNODE
71 in some cases, leading to intra-node messages (such as monitoring)
72 to fail silently (great testcase by Sadrak).
73
741.27 Sat Mar 20 21:11:16 CET 2010
75 - avoid exceptions in the transport code if the connection
76 fails during TLS negotiation.
77 - delay new address broadcasts in seednodes, to reduce the
78 likelyhood of nodes connecting at the same time, leading to
79 message loss.
80 - improve general message passing efficiency by 8%, and special
81 case json framing for a 50% speed increase.
82 - add hints how to interface to aemp nodes from other programming
83 languages using the aemp protocol in AnyEvent::MP::Transport
84 (it can really be quite simple).
85 - handle unsupported remote framings more gracefully.
86
871.26 Wed Dec 30 16:48:37 CET 2009
88 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the high-level node protocol changed,
89 all nodes need to upgrade.
90 - remote kil's did not work (reported by Eugene Grigoriev).
91 - documented monitor_timeout, connect_interval, auth_offer,
92 auth_accept, framing_format, autocork and nodelay options
93 and make them configurable via bin/aemp.
94 - some doc updates.
95 - remote kil's were not synchronous to message sends which affected
96 nobody, as remote kils were broken.
97 - remote mon/unmonitor requests were not synchronous to message
98 sends either sometimes, although it likely didnt matter.
99
1001.24 Wed Dec 9 14:59:52 CET 2009
101 - codename "the foul egg".
102 - increased "unmonitored local port died" message level to 2, so
103 it is displayed by default now.
104 - generate random seed at configure time, not module loading time,
105 so fork&configure works as expected.
106 - decreased "seed"-related message priority in Global from 0 (d'oh)
107 to 9, as they are not signifcant.
108 - new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish
109 additional data connections between nodes.
110 - bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying
111 to call restart.
112 - bin/aemp setcert didn't properly handle the filename argument.
113 - removed empty and unused timeout= parameter from protocol greeting.
114
1151.23 Fri Nov 6 18:46:26 CET 2009
116 - listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about
117 the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect
118 properly in all cases.
119 - messages send during node-up processing could sometimes get lost,
120 which would hamper global's ability to mesh the network.
8 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also 121 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also
122 in scalar context.
123 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::mon_nodes to return a guard also
9 in scalar context. 124 in scalar context.
10 - try to improve error reporting when automatically loading 125 - try to improve error reporting when automatically loading
11 a function - being unable to load a module will now 126 a function - being unable to load a module will now
12 stop the process and report the error. 127 stop the process and report the error.
