8 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
9 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
10 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
11 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
12 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
13 - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
14 stuff in Coro::Util.
15
164.13 Wed Oct 24 07:26:45 CEST 2007
17 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
18 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
19 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
20 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event,
21 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context.
22 This also catches recursive invocations.
23 - actually report fork errors in gethostbyname and inet_aton.
24
254.11 Thu Oct 11 02:40:24 CEST 2007
26 - port to threaded perls.
27
284.1 Thu Oct 11 02:38:16 CEST 2007
29 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
30 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
31 - incompatible change: for very deep reasons, cede and cede_notself
32 cannot return anything, so nothing will be returned.
33 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).
34 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(.
35 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
36 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
37 speeds up context switching a bit.
38 - further tune default stack sizes.
39 - (more) correctly calculate stack usage in coro_rss.
40 - Coro::Storable::blocking_* did not properly lock
41 resulting in races between coroutines.
42 - added Coro::Storable::guard.
43 - stopping to trace a coroutine could destroy the cctx of
44 an unrelated coroutine.
45 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
46 more detail in Coro::State.
47 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
48 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket.
49 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
50 invalidating pointers.
51
524.03 Sat Oct 6 21:24:00 CEST 2007
53 - added Coro::throw method.
54 - minor code cleanups.
55
564.02 Sat Oct 6 02:36:47 CEST 2007
57 - fix a very minor per-coroutine memleak (a single codereference).
58 - fixed a bug where the currently in-use c context would be freed
59 prematurely (can happen only when programs change the stacksize
60 or use tracing).
61 - tracing can no longer keep a coro alive after it terminated.
62 - do static branch prediction in the common path for gcc. gives
63 about 2-5% speed improvement here.
64
654.01 Fri Oct 5 22:10:49 CEST 2007
66 - instead of recreating *a* standard output handle we simply
67 use STDOUT, which is faster and hopefully more robust.
