8 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.

104.11 Thu Oct 11 02:40:24 CEST 2007
11 - port to threaded perls.
12
134.1 Thu Oct 11 02:38:16 CEST 2007
14 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
15 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
16 - incompatible change: for very deep reasons, cede and cede_notself
17 cannot return anything, so nothing will be returned.
18 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).
19 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(.
20 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
21 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
22 speeds up context switching a bit.
23 - further tune default stack sizes.
24 - (more) correctly calculate stack usage in coro_rss.
25 - Coro::Storable::blocking_* did not properly lock
26 resulting in races between coroutines.
27 - added Coro::Storable::guard.
28 - stopping to trace a coroutine could destroy the cctx of
29 an unrelated coroutine.
30 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
31 more detail in Coro::State.
32 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
33 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket.
34 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
35 invalidating pointers.
36
374.03 Sat Oct 6 21:24:00 CEST 2007
38 - added Coro::throw method.
39 - minor code cleanups.
40
414.02 Sat Oct 6 02:36:47 CEST 2007
42 - fix a very minor per-coroutine memleak (a single codereference).
43 - fixed a bug where the currently in-use c context would be freed
44 prematurely (can happen only when programs change the stacksize
45 or use tracing).
46 - tracing can no longer keep a coro alive after it terminated.
47 - do static branch prediction in the common path for gcc. gives
48 about 2-5% speed improvement here.

84.01 Fri Oct 5 22:10:49 CEST 2007 504.01 Fri Oct 5 22:10:49 CEST 2007
9 - use a different, less descriptive but hopefully more robust way 51 - instead of recreating *a* standard output handle we simply
10 to create the stdout glob for a newly created coroutine. 52 use STDOUT, which is faster and hopefully more robust.
