12 - bump minimum perl version to 5.10.
13
146.48 Sun Oct 4 19:03:51 CEST 2015
15 - fix memory leak when Coro::Handle uses Coro::EV internally
16 (testcase by Sten Sten).
17 - update code to libev 4 API (internally, Coro still used the
18 version 3 API calls).
19 - remove unused hv_sig.
20
216.47 Sat Jul 11 03:58:20 CEST 2015
22 - swap_svs - NVs can be in the SV head beginning with 5.20.
23
246.46 Tue Jun 30 14:36:30 CEST 2015
25 - restore portability to perls with windows fork emulation
26 (patch by Petr Písař).
27
286.45 Tue Jun 30 01:40:08 CEST 2015
29 - restore portability to perl 5.16 and below.
30
316.44 Tue Jun 30 00:41:54 CEST 2015
32 - avoid segfaulting (or worse) when tracing a canceled thread.
33 - the Event module silently broke it's public hook API, causing
34 failures on perls compiled with -Duselongdouble. Requiring
35 the latest version of Event because I don't know which release
36 changed this (it's not mentioned in the ChangeLog).
37 - allow xs level enterleave hooks via CoroAPI.
38
396.43 Thu Jun 4 15:38:14 CEST 2015
40 - use stability canary.
41 - port to stableperl-5.22.0-1.001.
42 - update libecb.
43
446.42 Wed Feb 11 20:29:52 CET 2015
45 - Coro::SemaphoreSet->try did not actually work (analyzed by
46 SATO Kentaro).
47 - upgrade libecb to be C11 compliant.
48
496.41 Sat Sep 6 22:08:46 CEST 2014
50 - restore portability to perl 5.8.x.
51 - give new Coro's a valid GvHV(PL_hintgv) - this is slow and takes
52 up some memory, but fixes "use feature" and similar modules
53 when used inside a Coro.
54 - allow zero as argument to Coro::Channel to mean the same thing
55 as no argument. this works with older versions as well,
56 but wasn't legal until now.
57 - slightly better c header file detection.
58
596.39 Mon Jun 2 00:00:08 CEST 2014
60 - work around more incompatible changes in 5.20.
61
626.38 Sun Jun 1 21:54:23 CEST 2014
63 - check that perl slots actually have enough space to hold
64 interpreter variables.
65 - untested port to perl 5.19 (64 bit tmps indices) (reported
66 by Andreas König).
67 - croak when cancel is called without a thread context.
68
696.37 Tue Mar 4 13:27:33 CET 2014
70 - *sigh*, removed leftover debugging code from debugging a
71 perl bug, of all things.
72
736.36 Tue Mar 4 07:11:59 CET 2014
74 - semaphores would not clear the destroy hook when interrupted
75 by ->throw, causing segfaults or worse.
76 - ->throw on a thread waiting for a semaphore did not acquire
77 the semaphore, but also didn't wake up other waiters,
78 possibly causing a deadlock.
79 - "FATAL: $Coro::IDLE blocked itself" will now use Carp::confess
80 to report a full stacktrace, which should help find out
81 where the actual call is.
82 - "atomically" destroy data in slf_destroy, because it is
83 the right thing to do, just in case.
84 - disable ecb.h libm dependency, to compile on ancient systems
85 or under adverse conditions.
86
876.33 Mon Nov 18 11:26:27 CET 2013
88 - do not crash when freeing padlists with holes (in 5.18).
89 - tentative SVt_BIND 5.19 port/fix.
90
916.32 Tue Nov 5 15:35:35 CET 2013
92 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old
93 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl (reported
94 by Darin McBride).
95
966.31 Thu May 9 07:39:48 CEST 2013
97 - Coro::AIO requests would crash if the thread was ready'd
98 while the request was ongoing.
99
1006.29 Wed May 8 02:55:18 CEST 2013
101 - when an on_destroy handler destructs the coro currently being
102 destructed a perl scalar could be accessed after being freed,
103 likely causing a crash.
104
1056.28 Wed Mar 6 06:58:02 CET 2013
106 - clean remnants of existing __DIE__ and __WARN__ handlers so
107 they lose their magic and will not cause segfaults later
108 (testcase by Andrey Sagulin).
109 - improved Coro::State documentation a bit.
110 - Coro::Debug::command now flushes the output.
111 - add hack detection code for x32 abi, because the braindead slugs
112 who designed that made it look exactly like x86_64 without
113 providing proper compile time symbols to test for it. as a result,
114 this detection cannot work reliably.
115 - valgrind stack registering was broken.
116 - do not rely on Time::HiRes anymore in Coro::Debug.
117
1186.23 Fri Dec 7 23:36:37 CET 2012
119 - use experimental fiber implementation on native windows
120 perls.
121 - use sizeof (void *) as multiplication factor for stack sizes,
122 to accomodate the totally braindamaged microsoft 64 bit "os".
123 - changed verifier host from win2k-ap510-32 to win7-sp516-32/64.
124 activeperl 5.16 crashes when PerlIO_define_layer is called due
125 to some bug in the perl dll, strawberry perl at least passes
126 the testsuite.
127 - implement Coro::Handle->peeraddr/host/port, for slightly
128 improved compatibility with LWP.
129 - implement 5.17 compatibility by almost blindly applying a
130 good-looking patch by Father Chrysostomos.
131 - move stack management functions into libcoro 3.
132 - libcoro version 3 "released".
133 - support magic values as timed_io_once args.
134 - recommend AnyEvent 7+ or EV 4+, also require EV
135 version 4 or newer for Coro::EV.
136
1376.10 Tue Oct 9 01:14:27 CEST 2012
138 - updated ecb.h, it had a typo that caused it to not compile on many
139 big endian systems (reported by many people).
140 - disable memory fences in ecb.h to improve portability.
141
1426.09 Sat Oct 6 23:25:02 CEST 2012
143 - Coro::EV I/O watchers were not interruptible by exceptions
144 (Coro::State::throw) (testcase by sten).
145 - ->throw now puts threads into the ready queue, as this seems to
146 be expected by existing code, and code that doesn't cope with spurious
147 wakeups needs fixing anyway.
148 - use fd -1 in mmap.
149 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
150 - warn about broken so-called "hardened" kernels.
151
1526.08 Fri Apr 13 12:05:47 CEST 2012
153 - be more aggressive about exiting like perl does - formerly,
154 exiting from the non-main thread would not execute END blocks.
155
1566.07 Fri Nov 11 21:21:48 CET 2011
157 - work around a bug in PerlIO (setting $SIG{__WARN__} to a PVCV).
158 - update ecb.h.
159
1606.06 Mon Aug 8 23:59:48 CEST 2011
161 - cygwin unfortunately patches the stack at runtime, so we use the pthreads
162 backend, which is an order of magnitude slower. unfortunately, cygwins
163 pthread implementation isn't very complete either, so allocate the stack
164 twice just to be sure.
165 (note: cygwin also enables mymalloc, which is NOT THREADSAFE ON WINDOWS,
166 in its ithreaded perl - best recompile cygwin and use the 'w'indows
167 backend for much better performance. also disable ithreads for
168 even better performance...).
169
1706.05 Thu Aug 4 21:36:36 CEST 2011
171 - blush, condvar values would not be propagated from send to recv anymore
172 (reported by Chip Salzenberg).
173 - use exponential increase for the readline buffer length in
174 Coro::Handle. also reduce initial allocation to 1020 from 4096 bytes.
175
1766.04 Wed Aug 3 17:15:45 CEST 2011
177 - use even more efficient and more compatible condvars for
178 compatibility to AnyEvent 6.x :)
179 - more inconsequential ecb.h updates.
180
1816.03 Wed Aug 3 11:41:30 CEST 2011
182 - change how Coro patches AnyEvent condvars for compatibility to
183 AnyEvent 6.x.
184 - update ecb.h, to no longer include <pthread.h> in case WinNT.h
185 hasn't been included.
186
1876.02 Wed Jul 13 04:35:19 CEST 2011
188 - "improve portability to Gentoo" - gentoo manages to put perl variables
189 in memory areas that are farther than 2gb apart, which the jit couldn't
190 handle and barfed. now it's just a bit slower on gentoo and similar
191 systems.
192
1936.01 Sun Jul 3 12:31:14 CEST 2011
194 - workarounds are good, but the test for whether pthreads are used
195 was not good. this one should be better.
196 - check differently whether gcc generates cfi instructions itself.
197
1986.0 Wed Jun 29 19:43:35 CEST 2011
199 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: unreferenced coro objects will now be
200 destroyed and cleaned up automatically (e.g. async { schedule }).
201 - implement a JIT compiler for part of the thread switch code,
202 which gives a 50% speed improvement on threaded perls, and
203 about 4% on non-threaded perls (so threaded perls now finally
204 reach about half the speed of non-threaded perls).
205 - slightly modernise Coro::Intro, add section about rouse functions.
206 - avoid DEFSV and ERRSV, giving another 10% improvement
207 in thread switching.
208 - Coro::State->is_destroyed is now called is_zombie.
209 - implement a Coro->safe_cancel method that might fail, but
210 cancels in a "safer" way if it succeeds.
211 - add preliminary support for DEBUGGING perls.
212 - get rid of two hash-accesses when initialising a new Coro - this
213 speeds up coro creation by almost a factor of two.
214 - croak when a coro that is being cancelled tries to block
215 (e.g. while executing a guard block), instead of crashing or
216 deadlocking.
217 - use a more robust and also faster method to identify Coro::State
218 objects - speeds up everything a bit.
219 - implement Coro->cancel in XS for a 20% speed improvement, and to
220 be able to implement mutual cancellation.
221 - speed up context switches by a percent or two by more efficiently
222 allocating context stack entries.
223 - implement Coro->join and Coro->on_destroy in XS for a speedup and
224 a reduction in memory use.
225 - cancelling a coro while it itself is cancelling another coro is
226 now supported and working, instead of triggering an assertion.
227 - be a bit more crash-resistant when calling (buggy) on_destroy
228 callbacks (best effort).
229 - move on_destroy into the slf_frame, to allow extension slf
230 functions to have destructors.
231 - get rid if coro refcounting - simply crash in other interpreter
232 threads by nulling the pointers on clone.
233 - simplify warn/die hook handling when loading Coro - the convoluted
234 logic seems to be no longer neccessary.
235 - use libecb instead of our own home-grown gcc hacks.
236 - document alternatives to Coro::LWP. Please use them :)
237 - work around another mindless idiotic NEEDLESS bug in openbsd/mirbsds
238 sigaltstack. Really. wine suffers from it, erlang suffers from it,
239 and it's known since at least 2006.
240
2415.372 Wed Feb 23 06:14:30 CET 2011
242 - apparently mingw doesn't provide a working gettimeofday, try to
243 work around that by relying on Time::HiRes (indirectly brought to
244 my attention by Max Maischein).
245 - fix some portability issues when Time::HiRes was used.
246
2475.371 Mon Feb 21 14:36:08 CET 2011
248 - backport to windows process emulation code again.
249
2505.37 Sat Feb 19 07:49:44 CET 2011
251 - add a big "Coro thread life cycle" section to "man Coro".
252 - try a tentative workaround against the breakage that 5.13 has
253 introduced without depreciation period. sigh.
254 - no longer use Time::HiRes if gettimeofday is available, which
255 saves quite a lot of memory.
256
2575.36 Sun Feb 13 05:33:41 CET 2011
258 - automatically load Coro::Channel, Coro::RWLock, Coro::Semaphore,
259 Coro::SemaphoreSet, Coro::Signal and Coro::Specific on first "new"
260 method call.
261 - undocument Coro::Timer::sleep and obsolete whole module.
262 - optimise Coro::Timer::timeout memory and cpu usage.
263 - slightly updated Coro::Intro for recent changes.
264 - do not initialise PL_dirty anymore.
265
2665.25 Thu Nov 11 01:08:39 CET 2010
267 - try a different approach on netbsd - netbsd 5 finally has marginally
268 working pthreads, but still broken ucontext/sigaltstack.
269 - openbsd 4.8 finally got their act together, Coro works out of the box
270 with asm, setjmp and pthreads (no change, just informational).
271
2725.24 Sat Oct 23 11:27:12 CEST 2010
273 - port to the EV 4.0 API.
274 - work around bugs in mingw32, making strawberry perl work
275 out of the box.
276 - correctly modify Coro::AIO function prototypes
277 so that they reflect the "no optional parameters" rule.
278 - "ported" libcoro to C++.
279
2805.23 Mon May 17 18:50:42 CEST 2010
281 - be more resistant to ordering changes when initialising
282 Coro::AnyEvent, Coro::EV and Coro::Event (reported by Matthias
283 Waldorf).
284 - document that perl 5.12 deliberately removed support for cloning.
285
2865.22 Wed Apr 14 03:55:35 CEST 2010
287 - correctly return udnef on errors in Coro::Handle::read/write
288 (testcase by Marc Mims).
289 - convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions
290 are less useful now, but are drop-in replacements for existing
291 functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also
292 fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton
293 with Coro::Util::inet_aton.
294 - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other
295 modules could have provided their own idle coro already
296 (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent).
297 - fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions.
298 - Coro::Timer corretcly exports it's symbols (reported by Hideki Yamamura).
299
3005.21 Wed Dec 16 07:19:51 CET 2009
301 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used
302 together.
303 - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in
304 Coro::AnyEvent, and how to run it (and not to block). Seems to be
305 the most common source of confusion.
306 - try to catch people naively blocking in an event callback.
307 - work around the perl filehandle bug issue in conjunction with
308 older common::sense (as indirectly pointed out by ZSystem).
309 - clarify the "not from signal handlers" section.
310
3115.2 Sun Oct 4 14:54:24 CEST 2009
312 - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped.
313 - export rouse_cb and rouse_wait by default now.
314 - fix various prototype mismatches in Coro::AnyEvent and Coro::Handle.
315 - new method $state->swap_sv.
316 - added section on "windows process emulation" to the manpage,
317 after a not-so-fruitful (nor-friendly) "discussion" with chip
318 salzenberg (discussion implies arguments, but his only arguments
319 were ad-hominems, one wonders why he started it in the first
320 place). I hope this explains it well enough for him to understand,
321 and maybe well enough for others to understand.
322 - use common::sense everywhere now.
323 - idle callbacks are no longer supported, use idle coros instead.
324 - print a thread listing when a deadlock is detected.
325
3265.17 Sat Aug 22 23:09:31 CEST 2009
327 - work around a bug in the perl debugger causing crashes
328 when running under the debugger by marking _pool_handler as nodebug.
329 - speed up Coro::async considerably.
330 - try some hacks to get netbsd to work "more often" - their broken
331 setjmp/longjmp, ucontext *and* phtreads are really hard on Coro.
332 - convert Coro to AE 5.0 API.
333
3345.162 Tue Jul 28 04:04:03 CEST 2009
335 - perl 5.8.2 is now minimum requirement.
336 - skip t/19_handle.t on broken windows perls.
337
3385.161 Wed Jul 22 04:47:38 CEST 2009
339 - Coro::AnyEvent::poll could have a different prototype when EV was
340 used as backend (analyzed by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa).
341 - Coro::AnyEvent errornously initialised the event loop when loaded,
342 not on demand.
343 - try to workaround rare */t/01_unblock.t failures.
344
3455.16 Tue Jul 21 01:44:37 CEST 2009
346 - Coro::AnyEvent failed to hook into the event loop
347 when no threads had been readied between detecting
348 the event loop and actually running it.
349 - considerably speed up Coro::Select by taking avdantage
350 of AnyEvent > 4.8 and some other optimisations.
351 - implement paragraph readline mode in Coro::Handle
352 (based on patches by Zsbán Ambrus).
353 - replace WSAEINPROGRESS by WSAEWOULDBLOCK (reported
354 and analyzed by Yasuhiro MATSUMOTO).
355 - clarified libcoro license and copyright.
356 - someone stole my EXTRA_META!!!
357 - implement Coro::Select::patch_pp_sselect and it's brother,
358 for hardcode select overriding.
359
3605.151 Mon Jul 6 05:41:57 CEST 2009
361 - backport to windows process emulation code again (patch by
362 Yasuhiro MATSUMOTO).
363 - slightly update Coro::MakeMaker.
364
3655.15 Tue Jun 30 10:28:06 CEST 2009
366 - deprecate Coro::Socket, document how to get ipv6 support via
367 AnyEvent::Socket instead.
368 - implement signal->wait ($cb) interface, similar to semaphores.
369 - work around SvOK not supporting getmagic, so we have to getmagic
370 to test for undef :/ (reported by Matthias Waldorf).
371 - load Coro::AnyEvent in all modules using AnyEvent.
372 - work around perl corrupting our internal data structures,
373 reported by Tokuhiro Matsuno.
374 - enable per-coroutine real and cpu time gathering
375 (Coro::State::enable_times).
376
3775.14 Wed Jun 24 01:37:48 CEST 2009
378 - provide explicit functions to "cede" to the event loop in Coro::AnyEvent,
379 as this seems to have been a difficult concept (poll, sleep, idle,
380 idle_upto).
381 - add Coro::AnyEvent::readable/writable functions.
382 - clarify Coro::EV/Event/AnyEvent manpages.
383 - free per-thread global scalars in the thread calling ->cancel, to
384 avoid crashes when $_, $@ etc., are magical but some of those
385 had already been freed.
386 - "unexperimentalise" the callback interface for Coro::Semaphore.
387 - speed up ready queue management/context switching by using a linked
388 list instead of an array (~5-10%).
389 - implement "watch" command in Coro::Debug shells.
390 - for fun, implement time-slicing as an example in the manpage.
391 - if AnyEvent detects EV or Event, but we don't have Coro::EV or
392 Coro::Event, use the normal AnyEvent handling instead of dieing
393 (the same is true for Coro::Handle).
394 - properly document Coro::EV::timed_io_once.
395 - avoid unneccessary ->cancel calls in Coro::Handle.
396 - maybe make it work on mingw32 with win32 backend
397 (based on patch by Yasuhiro Matsumoto).
398
3995.132 Fri May 29 09:00:39 CEST 2009
400 - do not keep a reference to the argument itself in
401 Coro::Semaphore::guard, as it could change later.
402 - support SO_RCVBUF/SO_SNDBUF nonstandard Coro::Socket options,
403 should support a prepare callback.
404
4055.131 Mon Mar 16 23:20:37 CET 2009
406 - implement and document Coro->suspend, Coro->resume.
407 - fix Coro::Select implementation to not (often) close
408 the passed file descriptors (testcase provided by pippijn).
409
4105.13 Mon Dec 15 21:51:42 CET 2008
411 - EXPERIMENTAL: implement dynamic winds (on_enter/on_leave).
412 - don't set diehook to C<undef> but instead to NULL, to avoid
413 spurious warnings.
414 - fix a lot of bugs in Coro::SemaphoreSet.
415 - Coro::SemaphoreSet will less often create a semaphore needlessly.
416 - add Coro::SemaphoreSet::count and wait methods.
417 - take advantage of the new Guard module.
418 - deprecate Coro::guard.
419 - try to fix the dreaded 01_unblock tests once more. I hate it when
420 testsuites need more fixing than the code they are supposed to test.
421 - croak in more cases when a required callback isn't resolvable.
422 - fix some minor issues in Coro::State->call/eval.
423 - use current coroutine context instead of a temporary one
424 when temporarily switching to another coroutine.
425 - do not call C-level on_destroy handlers during global destruction,
426 to avoid needless segfaults.
427
4285.12 Sun Dec 7 13:30:38 CET 2008
429 - add default config for MirOS, which seems to be a bug-to-bug
430 compatible fork of openbsd ("world domination by releasing
431 openbsd cvs before the openbsd folks do it" or so :).
432 - free_padlist did destroy the names pad, not good, but didn't
433 seem to bother perl - this could fix issues such as eval ""
434 inside a function called from multiple coroutines.
435 - use a different method to detect destruction time.
436 - be more careful when freeing padlists just before global
437 destruction.
438 - fixed and expanded the call/cc example.
439 - renamed _terminate to _coro_run.
440 - new method Coro::Channel->shutdown.
441 - try pthreads on openbsd <4.4 (broken sigaltstack, will
442 pthreads fare better?).
443 - be less picky about destroying "a" running coroutine.
444
4455.11 Tue Nov 25 21:49:05 CET 2008
446 - DEBUGGING in 5.10.0 is a mess: it constantly flags perfectly
447 working code with failed assertions, introducing more bugs than
448 it fixes, requiring elaborate workarounds :(
