1Revision history for Perl extension Coro. 1Revision history for Perl extension Coro.
2 2
30.12 3 - included libcoro.c earlier in State.xs, might improve portability.
4 - use a faster and possibly more stable Coro::Cont implementation.
5
61.11 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
7 - change of contact address.
8
91.1 Tue Feb 22 20:51:16 CET 2005
10 - support [l]inux method on amd64.
11 - make some context switches while compiling/eval'ing work.
12
131.0 Tue Aug 10 03:47:27 CEST 2004
14 - Event 0.89 fixes the bug again.
15 - fix the remaining(??) memleak. I didn't free the cache-AV for
16 padlists, so one AV per created anon-sub leaked.
17
180.97 Fri May 14 15:23:32 CEST 2004
19 - remove stupid gcc extension that was an experiment only anyway.
20
210.96 Thu May 13 18:09:29 CEST 2004
22 - tell people if they have yet anothe rbroken Event variant.
23 - made Coro to work _better_ with threads (it seems that, as long
24 as you use Coros in one thread only everything will work fine.
25 Looking at the perl source the problem might be missing locking
26 between Coro and some perl internal routines. That's not easily
27 fixable).
28 - (hopefully) got rid of the static xnext inside transfer.
29
300.95 Sun Feb 15 03:20:28 CET 2004
31 - removed Coro::State::flush, implemented a new and much
32 faster caching mechanism by attaching magic to the CV.
33 - a memleak with (real) closures remains.
34 - dramatically reduced size of stacks to 65536 (linux/x86), after
35 observing that even myhttpd never had more than a kilobyte
36 of stack in use (stack is still only physically allocated in
37 pagesize increments for systems suporting mmap).
38 - fix for a "cygwin-64" architecture added, proposed by Stefan Traby.
39 - fix for threaded perl.
40
410.9 Sun Nov 23 04:32:39 CET 2003
42 - fix a few very hard to track down but (of course) stupid
43 memory leaks.
44 - stringify version number to avoid locale problems :(.
45 - perl 5.9.0 does not have SvPADBUSY, reported by Scott Walters,
46 hopefully ignoring it "just works".
47
480.8 Wed Nov 5 19:38:40 CET 2003
49 - port to perl5.005_03, but only 5.8.x+ is supported!
50 - honor LocalAddr even without LocalPort in Coro::Socket.
51
520.7 Tue May 27 03:12:38 CEST 2003
53 - the version jump indicates some level of testing, not gobs
54 of new features.
55 - uh... I found the prompt function in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
56 Highly correct stuff, that is...
57 - fixed(?) a bug with die's in coroutines causing "panic: top_env".
58 the fix is not well understood by the author, so beware :(.
59
600.652 Thu May 8 02:54:46 CEST 2003
61 - Applied patch by Slaven Rezic to set default to "s" on FreeBSD,
62 cause version 4 doesn't have ucontext.
63 - Benjamin Reed reported that setjmp works fine on darwin,
64 so preselect it.
65
660.651 Sat Mar 29 15:00:23 CET 2003
67 - fix a bug in Coro::Handle where some bytes could get lost
68 on reading, reported by jason@nichego.net.
69
700.65 Sun Mar 23 00:08:26 CET 2003
71 - added a README.linux-glibc.
72 - new module Coro::Select.
73 - also save/restore PL_comppad, fixes segfaults with 5.8.1.
74 (I never claimed that I know what I am doing ;).
75 - set default to setjmp/longjmp on non-x86-linux.
76
770.6 Thu Nov 21 11:09:06 CET 2002
78 - made lazy context switching the default.
79 - fixed the bug where SemaphoreSet::guard
80 was the same as timed_guard and timed_guard was missing.
81 - fix a memleak in Coro::Timer.
82 - reclassified context sharing as not experimental.
83
840.534 Sun Apr 14 03:05:12 CEST 2002
85 - fixed backspace => tab in header parsing (myhttpd).
86 - added eg/readline, for elmex.
87 - Coro::Event now calls ->start on first call instead of
88 ->again, which created wrong timeouts for the first ->next.
89 - fixed a bug where Coro::Socket returned a closed socket instead
90 of nothing on ECONNREFUSED and similar error conditions.
91
920.533 Mon Feb 18 18:49:40 CET 2002
93 - adapt to finally working Event-0.85.
94 - fixed buggy event initialization (trapped under windows, but how
95 could it possibly have worked anywhere?)
96
970.532 Wed Jan 16 02:45:32 CET 2002
98 - removed the reference to pp_entersub, might work on
99 (some) win32 perls now (testsuite works under cygwin,
100 without Event, which freezes).
101
1020.531 Mon Dec 10 22:18:44 CET 2001
103 - Fixed a bug in SemaphoreSet::timed_down.
104
1050.53 Tue Nov 27 21:11:13 CET 2001
106 - some tests for Event.
107 - slightly different internal architecture to get refcnt into the object
108 and not the reference. might fix a few bugs, certainly did introduce
109 new ones.
110 - Coro::Timer (independent of Event).
111 - new timed_wait functions for Coro::Signal, Semaphore, SemaphoreSet.
112
1130.52 Tue Nov 6 21:36:18 CET 2001
114 - ported to cygwin (trivial).
115 patch by Gerrit P. Haase <gp@familiehaase.de>.
116 - small setjmp code fix by Sullivan.DanielJ@epamail.epa.gov.
117
1180.51 Thu Nov 1 20:39:01 CET 2001
119 - terminate/cancel now work properly (otherwise termination
120 could cause a "next coroutine is not and contains not..."
121 error.
122 - added Coro::Socket::shutdown.
123 - Coro::Event::loop no is the same as Event::loop.
124 - implemented terminate with args + join.
125
1260.5 Fri Sep 28 16:15:35 CEST 2001
127 - fixed "print" on a Coro::Handle. The print method worked.
128 - small tweaks (seem to reduce memory consumption a lot)
129 in various modules.
130 - splendid use of "no warnings" scattered throughout.
131 - added Coro::Handle::rbuf, fixed Coro::Handle::fh.
132
1330.49 Sun Sep 16 02:42:45 CEST 2001
134 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed
135 inside Coro::Handle.
136 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
137 speed reasons.
138 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
139 sjlj and ucontext should now work.
140 - IRIX-specific port for libcoro.
141 - swapped order of accept results to match IO::Socket.
142 - changed getsock/peername to sock/peername to match IO::Socket.
143 - fixed a bug that caused segfault when returning to main task
144 under some circumstances.
145 - other bugfixes.
146
1470.45 Sun Sep 2 02:54:01 CEST 2001
148 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
149 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
150 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
151 - Coro::Handle now supports fileno and FILENO.
152 - added eg/myhttpd, a web server.
153 - Coro::Socket now accepts numeric ports as well as "port(number)"
154 syntax.
155 - moved some scheduling primitives into xs code. more to come.
156 - new simple priority system.
157 - implemented Coro::Event using XS, almost four times faster!
158 - small memory corruption problem fixed (boy that was difficult).
159
1600.13 Wed Aug 8 16:53:07 CEST 2001
161 - new method Coro::Handle::readline.
162 - added eg/lwp and Coro::Handle::autoflush, to make LWP work.
163 (see eg/lwp on how to make LWP non-blocking).
164 - renamed Coro::Socket::new_inet to new.
165 - added Coro::Util, some utility functions.
166 - die/eval now works better (still get annoying (but true ;)
167 "Callback called exit" messages).
168 - Coro::Handle now supports timeout, and Coro::Socket Timeout.
169 - much better Coro::Socket support.
170
1710.12 Fri Jul 27 04:19:01 CEST 2001
4 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined. 172 - do not use mmap if neither MAP_ANON nor MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined.
5 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe ut 173 - very experimental stack sharing algorithm. not 100% safe but
6 should work well in practise ;) 174 should work well in practise ;)
7 - added Coro::RWLock. 175 - added Coro::RWLock.
176 - Coro::Specific now works.
8 177
