8 - libcoro did not preserve rbp with CORO_ASM.

104.804 Wed Nov 5 16:36:00 CET 2008
11 - Coro::Debug::new_unix_server would not create a non-blocking listening
12 socket, sometimes causing freezes.
13 - fix misaligned stack points for setjmp and assembly methods, which
14 can cause crashes on x86/x86_64 with a sufficiently aggressive compiler.
15 - new function: Coro::Debug::new_tcp_server.
16 - move ->throw into the Coro class because it only works on coro objects.
17
184.803 Mon Nov 3 17:16:12 CET 2008
19 - use a global asm statement to become independent of gcc otpimisations
20 for CORO_ASM (thanks to pippijn for the idea).
21 - try to workaround yet another broken bsd, this time dragonfly.
22
234.802 Thu Oct 30 10:56:12 CET 2008
24 - support -fno-omit-frame-pointer on x86 with the assembly method.
25 - tune 01_unblock.t tests a bit.
26
274.801 Wed Oct 22 18:33:37 CEST 2008
28 - improve readline speed for very long "lines".
29 - backport to 5.8.8.
30
314.8 Thu Oct 2 13:34:40 CEST 2008
32 - new function Coro::AIO::aio_wait.
33 - Coro.:AIO and Coro::BDB now "use Coro::AnyEvent".
34 - greatly speed up and reduce memory usage of Coro::AIO requests.
35 - implement some other ยต-optimisations.
36
374.749 Mon Sep 29 14:40:12 CEST 2008
38 - port to slow and broken pseudo-threaded perls. (courtesy pippijn).
39
404.748 Sat Sep 27 14:03:19 CEST 2008
41 - implement, but do not document, PerlIO::cede(granularity).
42 - Coro::Storable forgot to wrap Storable::pstore.
43 - work around the multitude of leaks and memory corruption
44 bugs in PerlIO::via by using our own C-level perliol. As a side
45 effect, Coro::Storable is now much, much, much faster.
46
474.747 Tue Sep 23 01:59:41 CEST 2008
48 - fix a per-cv memleak (one empty array was leaked per
49 code reference).
50 - avoid a crash in coro->call|rss when the coroutine was already
51 destroyed (most noticably when using Coro::Debug::ps :)
52 - also protect *Storable::FILE.
53 - push up default storable granularity to 20ms.
54
554.746 Sun Sep 21 03:22:20 CEST 2008
56 - be more insistent on locking Storable against reentrancy
57 in Coro::Storable.
58 - move swap_def?v and throw to Coro::State, as documented.
59
604.745 Thu Jul 24 00:14:38 CEST 2008
61 - remove debugging code related to MgPV_nolen_const, also try to
62 make it compile with perl 5.8.6 (yes, apple apparently loves
63 outdated software). Reported by John S.
64
654.744 Tue Jul 8 22:06:35 CEST 2008
66 - correctly provide default DIE/WARN handlers as documented.
67 - also overwrite PL_vtbl_sigelem.svt_clear, even though current
68 implementations inside perl work fine for us.
69
704.743 Mon Jun 16 00:21:57 CEST 2008
71 - when using Coro::EV without running EV::loop it could
72 result in busy-waiting for events, this has been fixed.
73 - reduce codesize and improve performance by using EV_DEFAULT_UC.
74
754.742 Sat May 31 14:10:21 CEST 2008
76 - implement a workaround for (some) perl <5.8.8 versions.
77 - require EV 3.3+.
78
794.741 Fri May 30 23:33:09 CEST 2008
80 - tell netbsd how utterly broken their imitation of an OS is
81 and refuse to build by default if pthreads are in use.
82 - switch to "s" method on all bsd's by default, as their ucontext
83 stuff seems just too broken.
84 - fix a bug in Coro::Select.
85
864.74 Thu May 29 20:05:31 CEST 2008
87 - do not test Coro::LWP for lack of dependencies.
88 - do not test Coro::Select for lack of working perls.
89
904.73 Thu May 29 2008
91 - fix a bug in Coro::EV which would cause it to block despite
92 there being runnable coroutines.
8 - sprinkle "no warnings" freely over everything, also suppress 93 - sprinkle "no warnings" freely over everything, also suppress
9 warnings for some other modules. 94 warnings for some other modules.
95 - fix typo in WSAEWOULDBLOCK.
