8 - do no longer rely on the presence of EV::DNS if EV is used
9 (because it is gone), but instead take avdantage of EV::ADNS
10 if available.
11
124.22 Fri Nov 30 16:04:04 CET 2007
13 - really use optimised versions for Event and EV in Coro::Util
14 and Coro::Handle.
15
164.21 Sun Nov 25 10:48:59 CET 2007
17 - fix a spurious memory read.
18 - Coro::EV no longer keeps the eventloop "alive".
19
204.2 Fri Nov 9 20:47:05 CET 2007
21 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
22 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
23 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
24 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
25 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
26 - only use assembly method if -O switch is in $Config{optimize}.
27 - add (optional) Coro::EV module, so far the best event loop module
28 directly supported by Coro.
29 - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
30 stuff in Coro::Util.
31 - don't get confused by multiple event notifications in Coro::Handle.
32 - initial support for EV (libevent interface).
33 - require Event and EV using configure_requires, to force their existance.
34
354.13 Wed Oct 24 07:26:45 CEST 2007
36 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
37 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
38 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
39 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event,
40 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context.
41 This also catches recursive invocations.
42 - actually report fork errors in gethostbyname and inet_aton.
43
444.11 Thu Oct 11 02:40:24 CEST 2007
45 - port to threaded perls.
46
474.1 Thu Oct 11 02:38:16 CEST 2007
48 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
49 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
50 - incompatible change: for very deep reasons, cede and cede_notself
51 cannot return anything, so nothing will be returned.
52 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).
53 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(.
54 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
55 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
56 speeds up context switching a bit.
57 - further tune default stack sizes.
58 - (more) correctly calculate stack usage in coro_rss.
59 - Coro::Storable::blocking_* did not properly lock
60 resulting in races between coroutines.
61 - added Coro::Storable::guard.
62 - stopping to trace a coroutine could destroy the cctx of
63 an unrelated coroutine.
64 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
65 more detail in Coro::State.
66 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
67 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket.
68 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
69 invalidating pointers.
