1Revision history for Perl extension Coro. 1Revision history for Perl extension Coro.
2 2
30.45 3TODO: should explore PerlIO::via::CoroCede and PerlIO::via::CoroAIO.
4TODO: maybe implement a default message channel, very much like Erlang's
5 actor model (which is cool in a lot of important aspects (failures!),
6 but very lacking in others (higher level ipc)).
7
84.51 Mon Apr 14 13:28:27 CEST 2008
9 - make it compile again on 5.8.
10
114.50 Thu Apr 10 09:43:17 CEST 2008
12 - I did it twice! (see 4.49).
13
144.49 Sun Apr 6 21:23:31 CEST 2008
15 - grr, instead of compiling the recent changes on 5.10 only they
16 were compiled on 5.8 only.
17
184.48 Sun Apr 6 20:36:46 CEST 2008
19 - allow coroutine switches during eval's under 5.10.x, as it seems
20 the parser is a per-interpreter option now, so this is safe
21 (this might fix the odd crashing bug).
22 - drop support for 5.9.x versions: they are dead, jim.
23
244.47 Sun Apr 6 00:37:52 CEST 2008
25 - force cctx allocation on API calls: we know we need to force one
26 and gcc actually manages to confuse our heuristic nowadays,
27 leading to crashes and worse.
28 - document force_cctx.
29
304.46 Fri Apr 4 22:05:43 CEST 2008
31 - upgrade libcoro, resulting in pthread-backend (which was only created
32 to fulfill the rules of the programming languages shootout).
33
344.45 Thu Mar 13 11:55:36 CET 2008
35 - fix a file leaking bug in eg/mhyttpd that would allow
36 downloading of any file (reported by oesi).
37 - fix deadlock bug in Coro::Channel (reported by Richard Hundt)
38 (also add testcase).
39 - support Broadcast option in Coro::Socket (patch by Richard Hundt,
40 apparently having loads of fun with that).
41 - implement $state->swap_defsv, ->swap_defav and document ->throw.
42
434.4 Wed Feb 13 16:44:29 CET 2008
44 - only assume .cfi pseudo isns exist on GNU/Linux.
45 - add get_timed method to Coro::Channels.
46 - fixed Coro::Debug manpage.
47 - perl 5.11 compatbility improvement based on patch by
48 Andreas König.
49
504.37 Sun Jan 20 11:25:23 CET 2008
51 - soften the check for an active parser for perl 5.10 (avoiding
52 "Coro::State::transfer called while parsing" in many cases).
53
544.36 Sun Jan 13 10:53:56 CET 2008
55 - reset diehook when terminating from an async_pool as to not
56 trigger any __DIE__ handlers.
57
584.35 Sun Jan 13 04:14:13 CET 2008
59 - "bt" debug command now displays any exceptions
60 from longmess and also skips the innermost
61 stackframes, giving more useufl output.
62 - allow backtraces in coroutines blocked in Coro::EV,
63 at a <1% speed hit.
64 - handle localising of $SIG{__WARN__} and __DIE__
65 properly (with a proper amount of dirty hacking).
66
674.34 Sat Dec 22 17:49:53 CET 2007
68 - upgrade to EV version 2.0 API.
69
704.33 Mon Dec 17 08:36:12 CET 2007
71 - make Coro::AIO etc. loadable in the absence of EV.
72
734.32 Mon Dec 17 07:46:02 CET 2007
74 - majorly improved Coro::Handle's performance with Coro::EV.
75 - implemented the until now mythical Coro::BDB module.
76 - specialcase EV in Coro::AIO and Coro::BDB for extra speed.
77
784.31 Wed Dec 5 12:32:39 CET 2007
79 - remove warn statement form Coro::Util.
80
814.3 Tue Dec 4 20:33:14 CET 2007
82 - calls to the idle function could cause stack corruption
83 when the stack changed.
84 - do no longer rely on the presence of EV::DNS if EV is used
85 (because it is gone), but instead take avdantage of EV::ADNS
86 if available.
87 - add ($) prototypes to all functions in Coro::Storable.
88 - use a conventional (safer) idle callback in Coro::EV.
89 - do accept quickly in Coro::Debug to avoid endless loops.
90
914.22 Fri Nov 30 16:04:04 CET 2007
92 - really use optimised versions for Event and EV in Coro::Util
93 and Coro::Handle.
94
954.21 Sun Nov 25 10:48:59 CET 2007
96 - fix a spurious memory read.
97 - Coro::EV no longer keeps the eventloop "alive".
98
994.2 Fri Nov 9 20:47:05 CET 2007
100 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
101 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
102 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
103 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
104 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
105 - only use assembly method if -O switch is in $Config{optimize}.
106 - add (optional) Coro::EV module, so far the best event loop module
107 directly supported by Coro.
108 - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
109 stuff in Coro::Util.
110 - don't get confused by multiple event notifications in Coro::Handle.
111 - initial support for EV (libevent interface).
112 - require Event and EV using configure_requires, to force their existance.
113
1144.13 Wed Oct 24 07:26:45 CEST 2007
115 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
116 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
117 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
118 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event,
119 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context.
120 This also catches recursive invocations.
121 - actually report fork errors in gethostbyname and inet_aton.
122
1234.11 Thu Oct 11 02:40:24 CEST 2007
124 - port to threaded perls.
125
1264.1 Thu Oct 11 02:38:16 CEST 2007
127 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
128 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
129 - incompatible change: for very deep reasons, cede and cede_notself
130 cannot return anything, so nothing will be returned.
131 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).
132 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(.
133 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
134 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
135 speeds up context switching a bit.
136 - further tune default stack sizes.
137 - (more) correctly calculate stack usage in coro_rss.
138 - Coro::Storable::blocking_* did not properly lock
139 resulting in races between coroutines.
140 - added Coro::Storable::guard.
141 - stopping to trace a coroutine could destroy the cctx of
142 an unrelated coroutine.
143 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
144 more detail in Coro::State.
145 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
146 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket.
147 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
148 invalidating pointers.
149
1504.03 Sat Oct 6 21:24:00 CEST 2007
151 - added Coro::throw method.
152 - minor code cleanups.
153
1544.02 Sat Oct 6 02:36:47 CEST 2007
155 - fix a very minor per-coroutine memleak (a single codereference).
156 - fixed a bug where the currently in-use c context would be freed
157 prematurely (can happen only when programs change the stacksize
158 or use tracing).
159 - tracing can no longer keep a coro alive after it terminated.
160 - do static branch prediction in the common path for gcc. gives
161 about 2-5% speed improvement here.
162
1634.01 Fri Oct 5 22:10:49 CEST 2007
164 - instead of recreating *a* standard output handle we simply
165 use STDOUT, which is faster and hopefully more robust.
166
1674.0 Fri Oct 5 12:56:00 CEST 2007
168 - incompatibly changed Coro::Storable::freeze.
169 - major new feature: added Coro::Debug, for interactive coroutine
170 debugging, tracing and much more.
171 - major bug fix: unbelievable, but true: $_, $/ and many other
172 "saved" variables actually weren't being saved. This has been fixed,
173 of course, while increasing performance while losing all the save
174 flags.
175 - save flags are gone, and all the api functions dealing with them.
176 - added Coro::Semaphore::adjust.
177 - added Coro::Util::fork_eval.
178 - added Coro::Storable::{nfreeze,blocking_{freeze,nfreeze}}.
179 - added Coro::killall.
180 - reduce initial stack sizes to allow for "micro-coroutines".
181 - better async_pool resource management, moved parts of async_pool
182 handling to XS (major speed improvement).
183 - actually croak before modifying important data structures.
184 - refuse to transfer while compiling.
185 - possibly support eval EXPR better now.
186 - enable assembly per default on linux+bsd x86+amd64.
187 - all internal members were renamed _something for easier subclassing.
188 - many minor tweaks.
189
1903.63 Wed May 16 14:10:06 CEST 2007
191 - implement handcoded assembly for x86/amd64 SVR ABI.
192
1933.62 Fri Apr 27 21:36:06 CEST 2007
194 - upgrade libcoro (which might set unwind info correctly).
195 - change default on linux to setjmp/longjmp.
196
1973.61 Thu Apr 19 12:36:18 CEST 2007
198 - Coro::Storable caused an endless loop when thawing invalid
199 pst's sometimes.
200 - use a Semaphore in Coro::Storable, as Storable doesn't
201 seem to be reentrant (although it is documented to
202 be threadsafe...).
203 - fix Coro::Signal to bring back the original unreliable
204 but stateful semantics.
205 - fixed a lot of typos in Coro.pm (patch submitted by David
206 Steinbrunner, which applied flawlessly).
207
2083.6 Sat Apr 14 17:13:31 CEST 2007
209 - added some bugfixes to get eg/myhttpd working again.
210 - added Coro::Storable for often-cede'ing freeze/thaw.
211 - try to do a clean exit when a coroutine calls exit
212 (EXPERIMENTAL).
213 - got rid of indirect call through _coro_init.
214 - updated the partly antique examples in eg/ to
215 work again and be a bit less magic, too.
216 - fixed Coro::Signal semantics to work as documented again.
217
2183.55 Sun Mar 25 01:20:47 CET 2007
219 - add SAVE_DEFFH to save the default filehandle and enable
220 it by default.
221 - finally move socket-operations from Coro::Socket to Coro::Handle
222 to be able to unblock foreign sockets.
223 - add Coro::State::save_also and guarded_save.
224 - add count accessor to Coro::Semaphore.
225 - add Coro::State::cctx_stacksize.
226 - just for the fun of it, do not rely on implicit context,
227 which can dramatically improve performance, but people
228 using windows-process-emulation perls do not care much about
229 performance.
230
2313.51 Sun Mar 4 14:18:04 CET 2007
232 - fixed a problem when you weakened references to Coro::State's
233 (patch by Yuval Kogman).
234
2353.501 Wed Feb 28 12:44:07 CET 2007
236 - rename some global symbols as macosx from hell redefines
237 them without asking.
238
2393.5 Tue Feb 13 20:22:53 CET 2007
240 - do AnyEvent model detection earlier, avoiding problems
241 caused by first using AnyEvent and later Coro::Event.
242 - implement and document Coro::Event event objects.
243 - fix a potential problem in Coro::Event causing crashes.
244 - initialise PL_comppad when creating a new coroutine,
245 avoids crashes on early coro destruction.
246
2473.41 Mon Jan 22 19:19:49 CET 2007
248 - readline on Coro::Handle did not support undefined $/,
249 nor did it deliver partial lines on EOF or error.
250 - implement malloc fallback for stack allocation because
251 stupid broken idiotic OSX has a stupid broken
252 idiotic fits-the-whole-os mmap "implementation" and
253 my dick feels longer if Coro is portable even to
254 obsolete platforms.
255
2563.4 Fri Jan 19 21:52:54 CET 2007
257 - remove t/09_timer.t, as it isn't really testing much
258 but was rather flaky in practise.
259 - async_pool coro would keep arguments and callback alive until
260 it was reused.
261 - cancellation of a coroutine could cause spurious idle calls
262 in cede_notself.
263
2643.3 Sat Jan 6 03:45:00 CET 2007
265 - implement $coro->on_destroy.
266 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed,
267 documented and - hopefully - improved.
268 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority.
269 - fix ->prio and api_is_ready (patch by Mark Hinds).
270 - fixed an assert ("... == prev__cctx->idle_te")
271 that could errronously trigger.
272 - fix various large and small memleaks.
273 - use a (hopefully) more stable cancel implementation
274 that immediately frees the coroutine data.
275 - cede/cede_notself return a status now.
276 - added Coro::guard function.
277 - added a global coroutine pool for jobs (on my machine,
278 I can create and execute 48k simple coros/s with async,
279 and 128k coros with async_pool).
280 - Coro::AIO now uses the coroutine priority as io priority.
281
2823.2 Fri Dec 22 05:07:09 CET 2006
283 - improve portability to slightly older perls.
284 - use cleaner coroutine destruction.
285 - simplify configuration for users.
286 - optionally (unrecommended) prefer perl functions over
287 their coro replacements.
288
2893.11 Tue Dec 5 13:11:24 CET 2006
290 - fixed some bogus assert's, but as perl.h disables assert even
291 without NDEBUG (thank you very much), not too many people should
292 notice (that did include myself). Andreas König noticed, though :)
293 - do not save/restore PL_sortcxix on >= 5.9.x, it doesn't seem to have
294 it. Also noticed by Andreas König :)
295 - save/restore tainted status.
296 - verified to pass the testsuite on my 5.9.5.
297
2983.1 Mon Dec 4 23:03:40 CET 2006
299 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: $/ is now per-coroutine (but slow).
300 - incompatible change: transfer flags are now per-state.
301 - give a better error message on deadlock.
302 - document Coro::nready.
303 - enhanced testsuite.
304
3053.01 Sun Dec 3 23:47:42 CET 2006
306 - forgot to include Coro::Timer.
307
3083.0 Sun Dec 3 22:57:25 CET 2006
309 - the "FINALLY COMPLETELY STABLE" release (coming soon:
310 the "FAMOUS LAST WORDS" release).
311 - implement a new stack sharing algorithm, which uses a stack
312 pool (size currently hardcoded).
313 - make stack sharing mandatory (it no longer uses a heuristic).
314 - eval/die no longer cause weird problems under heavy use.
315 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but
316 no Coro::Event watchers were used.
317 - Coro::Event now uses asynccheck as prepare does not
318 check for changed watchers.
319 - Coro::Event allows multiple waiting coros and will wake up one
320 per event.
321 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now.
322 - new utility function Coro::unblock_sub.
323 - document the sad fact that Event is no longer reentrant.
324 - putting a coroutine into the ready queue twice could under
325 some circumstances lead to stack corruption.
326 - minor incompatibility: subclassing Coro::State is supported
327 directly now without going through a _coro_state member.
328 - state/coro switching is much faster now.
329 - very minor optimisations and code/documentation cleanup.
330 - avoid problems due to compiler inlining.
331 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead.
332 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler.
333 - updated to newest libcoro.
334 - implement enhanced support for valgrind.
335 - implement is_ready and return value for ready.
336 - removed Coro::Cont, it was a misnomer (it's generators),
337 and it was somewhat annoying to get it right. Will come back
338 if somebody asks for it :)
339 - many ->wait methods and Coro::Event could return
340 spuriously without the event having happened.
341
3422.5 Tue Nov 7 12:22:33 CET 2006
343 - made Coro::Util, Coro::Select, Coro::Handle and Coro::Socket
344 use AnyEvent, moved them to Coro/.
345 - added Coro::LWP which contains all the uglyness required to
346 make LWP non-blocking.
347 - should work with perl 5.9.x now (Andreas König made me do it).
348 - fixed another bug in Coro::Select when the timeout was undef.
349 - reuse PL_start_env for all coros, saves some memory per coroutine.
350 - manage PL_top_env differently, hopefully to avoid panic: top_env.
351 - timeout argument was not properly used in Coro::Socket.
352 - allow limited forms of subclassing in Coro::Handle/Coro::Socket.
353 - emulate undocumented(!) functionality of IO::Socket required
354 by LWP(!!).
355 - updated eg/lwp to work with newer lwp's.
356 - remove "FATAL: uncaught exception" prefix. Coroutines that die
357 kill the whole process, just as exceptions in the main "coroutine"
358 did already.
359
3602.1 Wed Nov 1 23:01:13 CET 2006
361 - fix a long-standing bug in Coro::Select where select with
362 zero timeout would instead change the current default filehandle.
363 - use a simpler and hopefully more robust way to clone padlists
364 (uses less memory and a perl function instead of our own).
365 - coro can now create a stack guard area on many architectures.
366 - Coro::AIO properly reexports additional functions from IO::AIO.
367 - updated libcoro with a workaround for OS X,
368 pach and testing by Michael Schwern.
369
3702.0 Tue Oct 24 05:47:17 CEST 2006
371 - support additional aio requests in Coro::AIO.
372
3731.9 (never properly released due to a glitch)
374
3751.8 Thu Feb 2 00:59:06 CET 2006
376 - applied suggested patch by SAMV to avoid problems during stupid
377 mark & sweep gc run.
378 - applied patch by Scott Walters for 5.9.3 compatibility.
379
3801.7 Tue Dec 27 01:41:58 CET 2005
381 - added Coro::AIO, a thin wrapper around IO::AIO.
382 - improved Makefile.PL explanations.
383
3841.6 Mon Dec 12 21:30:05 CET 2005
385 - additionally save PM_curpm might fix as-of-yet
386 unseen problems with regex matches being attributed to the
387 wrong package.
388 - add t/10_bugs.t, which currently checks against imho broken
389 perls that use 0.26MB of stack space per Perl_magic_get
390 invocation (newer linuxes) as opposed to the 0.0002MB perl
391 normally uses.
392 - make stacksize configurable for the ultimate debian experience.
393
3941.51 Mon Dec 12 18:48:36 CET 2005
395 - remove debugging warn() accidentally left in Coro::Select.
396
3971.5 Tue Nov 29 13:32:44 CET 2005
398 - use Coro::Event inside Coro::Select to avoid spurious deadlocks.
399 - fix Coro::Select 'select'.
400 - strict'ify some modules.
401 - libcoro errornously restored the SIGUSR2 handler to SIGUSR1.
402 - use XSLoader in selected modules.
403 - remove some 5.6 compatibility cruft.
404
4051.4 Tue Sep 6 00:11:05 CEST 2005
406 - libcoro did not take into account the trampoline on amd64,
407 when 'l'inux method was used.
408
4091.31 Tue Aug 30 23:31:33 CEST 2005
410 - some portability fixes/workarounds.
411
4121.3 Sat Aug 20 03:08:56 CEST 2005
413 - no code changes. module seems to work fine.
414 - improve Coro::State docs, remove reference to nonexisting
415 Coro::State::flush method.
416 - no longer autodetect windows, present it as an option instead.
417
4181.2 Mon May 16 02:00:55 CEST 2005
419 - included libcoro.c earlier in State.xs, might improve portability.
420 - use a faster and possibly more stable Coro::Cont implementation.
421 - accept x86_64 in addition to amd64 for optimized linux-amd64 support.
422 - fix bugs Coro::SemaphoreSet that could cause locks never to be freed.
423 - fix bugs in CoroAPI.h and document it in Coro::MakeMaker.
424
4251.11 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
426 - change of contact address.
427
4281.1 Tue Feb 22 20:51:16 CET 2005
429 - support [l]inux method on amd64.
430 - allow some context switches while compiling/eval'ing.
431
4321.0 Tue Aug 10 03:47:27 CEST 2004
433 - Event 0.89 fixes the bug again.
434 - fix the remaining(??) memleak. I didn't free the cache-AV for
435 padlists, so one AV per created anon-sub leaked.
436
4370.97 Fri May 14 15:23:32 CEST 2004
438 - remove stupid gcc extension that was an experiment only anyway.
439
4400.96 Thu May 13 18:09:29 CEST 2004
441 - tell people if they have yet another broken Event variant.
442 - made Coro to work _better_ with threads (it seems that, as long
443 as you use Coros in one thread only everything will work fine.
444 Looking at the perl source the problem might be missing locking
445 between Coro and some perl internal routines. That's not easily
446 fixable).
447 - (hopefully) got rid of the static xnext inside transfer.
448
4490.95 Sun Feb 15 03:20:28 CET 2004
450 - removed Coro::State::flush, implemented a new and much
451 faster caching mechanism by attaching magic to the CV.
452 - a memleak with (real) closures remains.
453 - dramatically reduced size of stacks to 65536 (linux/x86), after
454 observing that even myhttpd never had more than a kilobyte
455 of stack in use (stack is still only physically allocated in
456 pagesize increments for systems suporting mmap).
457 - fix for a "cygwin-64" architecture added, proposed by Stefan Traby.
458 - fix for threaded perl.
459
4600.9 Sun Nov 23 04:32:39 CET 2003
461 - fix a few very hard to track down but (of course) stupid
462 memory leaks.
463 - stringify version number to avoid locale problems :(.
464 - perl 5.9.0 does not have SvPADBUSY, reported by Scott Walters,
465 hopefully ignoring it "just works".
466
4670.8 Wed Nov 5 19:38:40 CET 2003
468 - port to perl5.005_03, but only 5.8.x+ is supported!

470
4710.7 Tue May 27 03:12:38 CEST 2003
472 - the version jump indicates some level of testing, not gobs
473 of new features.
474 - uh... I found the prompt function in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
475 Highly correct stuff, that is...
476 - fixed(?) a bug with die's in coroutines causing "panic: top_env".
477 the fix is not well understood by the author, so beware :(.
478
4790.652 Thu May 8 02:54:46 CEST 2003
480 - Applied patch by Slaven Rezic to set default to "s" on FreeBSD,
481 cause version 4 doesn't have ucontext.
482 - Benjamin Reed reported that setjmp works fine on darwin,
483 so preselect it.
484
4850.651 Sat Mar 29 15:00:23 CET 2003
486 - fix a bug in Coro::Handle where some bytes could get lost
487 on reading, reported by jason@nichego.net.
488
4890.65 Sun Mar 23 00:08:26 CET 2003
490 - added a README.linux-glibc.
491 - new module Coro::Select.
492 - also save/restore PL_comppad, fixes segfaults with 5.8.1.
493 (I never claimed that I know what I am doing ;).
494 - set default to setjmp/longjmp on non-x86-linux.
495
4960.6 Thu Nov 21 11:09:06 CET 2002
497 - made lazy context switching the default.
498 - fixed the bug where SemaphoreSet::guard
499 was the same as timed_guard and timed_guard was missing.
500 - fix a memleak in Coro::Timer.
501 - reclassified context sharing as not experimental.
502
5030.534 Sun Apr 14 03:05:12 CEST 2002
504 - fixed backspace => tab in header parsing (myhttpd).
505 - added eg/readline, for elmex.
506 - Coro::Event now calls ->start on first call instead of
507 ->again, which created wrong timeouts for the first ->next.
508 - fixed a bug where Coro::Socket returned a closed socket instead
509 of nothing on ECONNREFUSED and similar error conditions.
510
5110.533 Mon Feb 18 18:49:40 CET 2002
512 - adapt to finally working Event-0.85.
513 - fixed buggy event initialization (trapped under windows, but how
514 could it possibly have worked anywhere?)
515
5160.532 Wed Jan 16 02:45:32 CET 2002
517 - removed the reference to pp_entersub, might work on
518 (some) win32 perls now (testsuite works under cygwin,
519 without Event, which freezes).
520
5210.531 Mon Dec 10 22:18:44 CET 2001
522 - Fixed a bug in SemaphoreSet::timed_down.
523
5240.53 Tue Nov 27 21:11:13 CET 2001
525 - some tests for Event.
526 - slightly different internal architecture to get refcnt into the object
527 and not the reference. might fix a few bugs, certainly did introduce
528 new ones.
529 - Coro::Timer (independent of Event).
530 - new timed_wait functions for Coro::Signal, Semaphore, SemaphoreSet.
531
5320.52 Tue Nov 6 21:36:18 CET 2001
533 - ported to cygwin (trivial).
534 patch by Gerrit P. Haase <gp@familiehaase.de>.

536
5370.51 Thu Nov 1 20:39:01 CET 2001
538 - terminate/cancel now work properly (otherwise termination
539 could cause a "next coroutine is not and contains not..."
540 error.
541 - added Coro::Socket::shutdown.
542 - Coro::Event::loop no is the same as Event::loop.
543 - implemented terminate with args + join.

548 in various modules.
549 - splendid use of "no warnings" scattered throughout.
550 - added Coro::Handle::rbuf, fixed Coro::Handle::fh.
551
5520.49 Sun Sep 16 02:42:45 CEST 2001
553 - changed some method calls to function calls for speed
554 inside Coro::Handle.
555 - make Coro::Handle use an array instead of a hash for
556 speed reasons.
557 - IRIX mystery solved: it's SGI's NT, after all: "standard, huh?".
558 sjlj and ucontext should now work.
559 - IRIX-specific port for libcoro.
560 - swapped order of accept results to match IO::Socket.
561 - changed getsock/peername to sock/peername to match IO::Socket.

4 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout. 567 - new method Coro::Handle::timeout.
5 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket. 568 - corrected speling of set...name to get...name in Coro::Socket.
6 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle. 569 - Coro::Socket::accept now returns a Coro::Socket, not a Coro::Handle.
