96.513 Sat Jul 15 01:18:51 CEST 2017
10 - experimental 5.22 comaptibility changes (PadlistNAMES).
11 - removed attributes example and made sure the other examples
12 still work.
13 - fix some statevar types for newer perls, should be of no consequence.
14
156.512 Fri Jul 14 05:03:17 CEST 2017
16 - seems to pass test suite down till 5.8.9, so make this the
17 minimum requirement in Makefile.PL.
18 - experimental 5.24 compatibility changes (SUB_ARGARRAY).
19 - experimental 5.26 compatibility changes (PL_comppad -> PADOFFSET).
20 - disable FORTIFY_SOURCE to avoid broken (but well-intentioned)
21 fortified longjmp variants in some libcs.
22 - re-try JIT allocation without PROT_EXEC, to hopefully improve
23 portability (still doesn't seem to work around broken selinux
24 mmap everywhere).
25 - speling fixes (Xavier Guimard).
26
276.511 Sun Jun 26 23:44:50 CEST 2016
28 - make it compile with threaded perls again.
29 - simplify and speed up __DIE__ and __WARN__ handling.
30
316.51 Sat Jun 25 20:57:20 CEST 2016
32 - 6.5 release didn't compile on most older perls due to
33 a logic error enabling experimental 5.24 code for all versions.
34 - since various broken or deficient patches float around
35 to work around the vtbl API breakage in perl, let's provide
36 our own workaround, which seems to be much less invasive
37 and more compatible than the approaches seen so far. YMMV.
38 - work around assertion failure in perl_destruct on 5.24
39 (analyzed by Dave Mitchell).
40
416.5 Wed Jun 22 22:23:50 CEST 2016
42 - swap_sv swapping order was not symmetrical, causing
43 wrong swaps when swap_sv was used multiple times on the
44 same sv in the same thread.
45 - swap_sv calls can now be undone by calling it again
46 with the same variables.
47 - swap_sv calls will now be undone in async_pool threads.
48 - split Coro::Semaphore::up/adjust into separate xs functions
49 for better error reporting, at slight codesize increase.
50 - (libcoro) arm assembly support, please test and report.
51 - adjust to PL_savestack changes in perl 5.24 (adapted from
52 the debian patch, which unfortunately gets it wrong).
53
546.49 Sat Oct 17 01:40:12 CEST 2015
55 - throwing an exception to a thread waiting in
56 Coro::Handle using Coro::EV did not stop the watchers,
57 causing the next call to fail (testcase by Martin Pritchard).
58 - bump minimum perl version to 5.10.
59
606.48 Sun Oct 4 19:03:51 CEST 2015
61 - fix memory leak when Coro::Handle uses Coro::EV internally
62 (testcase by Sten Sten).
63 - update code to libev 4 API (internally, Coro still used the
64 version 3 API calls).
65 - remove unused hv_sig.
66
676.47 Sat Jul 11 03:58:20 CEST 2015
68 - swap_svs - NVs can be in the SV head beginning with 5.20.
69
706.46 Tue Jun 30 14:36:30 CEST 2015
71 - restore portability to perls with windows fork emulation
72 (patch by Petr Písař).
73
746.45 Tue Jun 30 01:40:08 CEST 2015
75 - restore portability to perl 5.16 and below.
76
776.44 Tue Jun 30 00:41:54 CEST 2015
78 - avoid segfaulting (or worse) when tracing a canceled thread.
79 - the Event module silently broke it's public hook API, causing
80 failures on perls compiled with -Duselongdouble. Requiring
81 the latest version of Event because I don't know which release
82 changed this (it's not mentioned in the ChangeLog).
83 - allow xs level enterleave hooks via CoroAPI.
84
856.43 Thu Jun 4 15:38:14 CEST 2015
86 - use stability canary.
87 - port to stableperl-5.22.0-1.001.
88 - update libecb.
89
906.42 Wed Feb 11 20:29:52 CET 2015
91 - Coro::SemaphoreSet->try did not actually work (analyzed by
92 SATO Kentaro).
93 - upgrade libecb to be C11 compliant.
94
956.41 Sat Sep 6 22:08:46 CEST 2014
96 - restore portability to perl 5.8.x.
97 - give new Coro's a valid GvHV(PL_hintgv) - this is slow and takes
98 up some memory, but fixes "use feature" and similar modules
99 when used inside a Coro.
100 - allow zero as argument to Coro::Channel to mean the same thing
101 as no argument. this works with older versions as well,
102 but wasn't legal until now.
103 - slightly better c header file detection.
104
1056.39 Mon Jun 2 00:00:08 CEST 2014
106 - work around more incompatible changes in 5.20.
107
1086.38 Sun Jun 1 21:54:23 CEST 2014
109 - check that perl slots actually have enough space to hold
110 interpreter variables.
111 - untested port to perl 5.19 (64 bit tmps indices) (reported
112 by Andreas König).
113 - croak when cancel is called without a thread context.
114
1156.37 Tue Mar 4 13:27:33 CET 2014
116 - *sigh*, removed leftover debugging code from debugging a
117 perl bug, of all things.
118
1196.36 Tue Mar 4 07:11:59 CET 2014
120 - semaphores would not clear the destroy hook when interrupted
121 by ->throw, causing segfaults or worse.
122 - ->throw on a thread waiting for a semaphore did not acquire
123 the semaphore, but also didn't wake up other waiters,
124 possibly causing a deadlock.
125 - "FATAL: $Coro::IDLE blocked itself" will now use Carp::confess
126 to report a full stacktrace, which should help find out
127 where the actual call is.
128 - "atomically" destroy data in slf_destroy, because it is
129 the right thing to do, just in case.
130 - disable ecb.h libm dependency, to compile on ancient systems
131 or under adverse conditions.
132
1336.33 Mon Nov 18 11:26:27 CET 2013
134 - do not crash when freeing padlists with holes (in 5.18).
135 - tentative SVt_BIND 5.19 port/fix.
136
1376.32 Tue Nov 5 15:35:35 CET 2013
138 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old
139 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl (reported
140 by Darin McBride).
141
1426.31 Thu May 9 07:39:48 CEST 2013
143 - Coro::AIO requests would crash if the thread was ready'd
144 while the request was ongoing.
145
1466.29 Wed May 8 02:55:18 CEST 2013
147 - when an on_destroy handler destructs the coro currently being
148 destructed a perl scalar could be accessed after being freed,
149 likely causing a crash.
150
1516.28 Wed Mar 6 06:58:02 CET 2013
152 - clean remnants of existing __DIE__ and __WARN__ handlers so
153 they lose their magic and will not cause segfaults later
154 (testcase by Andrey Sagulin).
155 - improved Coro::State documentation a bit.
156 - Coro::Debug::command now flushes the output.
157 - add hack detection code for x32 abi, because the braindead slugs
158 who designed that made it look exactly like x86_64 without
159 providing proper compile time symbols to test for it. as a result,
160 this detection cannot work reliably.
161 - valgrind stack registering was broken.
162 - do not rely on Time::HiRes anymore in Coro::Debug.
163
1646.23 Fri Dec 7 23:36:37 CET 2012
165 - use experimental fiber implementation on native windows
166 perls.
167 - use sizeof (void *) as multiplication factor for stack sizes,
168 to accomodate the totally braindamaged microsoft 64 bit "os".
169 - changed verifier host from win2k-ap510-32 to win7-sp516-32/64.
170 activeperl 5.16 crashes when PerlIO_define_layer is called due
171 to some bug in the perl dll, strawberry perl at least passes
172 the testsuite.
173 - implement Coro::Handle->peeraddr/host/port, for slightly
174 improved compatibility with LWP.
175 - implement 5.17 compatibility by almost blindly applying a
176 good-looking patch by Father Chrysostomos.
177 - move stack management functions into libcoro 3.
178 - libcoro version 3 "released".
179 - support magic values as timed_io_once args.
180 - recommend AnyEvent 7+ or EV 4+, also require EV
181 version 4 or newer for Coro::EV.
182
1836.10 Tue Oct 9 01:14:27 CEST 2012
184 - updated ecb.h, it had a typo that caused it to not compile on many
185 big endian systems (reported by many people).
186 - disable memory fences in ecb.h to improve portability.
187
1886.09 Sat Oct 6 23:25:02 CEST 2012
189 - Coro::EV I/O watchers were not interruptible by exceptions
190 (Coro::State::throw) (testcase by sten).
191 - ->throw now puts threads into the ready queue, as this seems to
192 be expected by existing code, and code that doesn't cope with spurious
193 wakeups needs fixing anyway.
194 - use fd -1 in mmap.
195 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
196 - warn about broken so-called "hardened" kernels.
197
1986.08 Fri Apr 13 12:05:47 CEST 2012
199 - be more aggressive about exiting like perl does - formerly,
200 exiting from the non-main thread would not execute END blocks.
201
2026.07 Fri Nov 11 21:21:48 CET 2011
203 - work around a bug in PerlIO (setting $SIG{__WARN__} to a PVCV).
204 - update ecb.h.
205
2066.06 Mon Aug 8 23:59:48 CEST 2011
207 - cygwin unfortunately patches the stack at runtime, so we use the pthreads
208 backend, which is an order of magnitude slower. unfortunately, cygwins
209 pthread implementation isn't very complete either, so allocate the stack
210 twice just to be sure.
211 (note: cygwin also enables mymalloc, which is NOT THREADSAFE ON WINDOWS,
212 in its ithreaded perl - best recompile cygwin and use the 'w'indows
213 backend for much better performance. also disable ithreads for
214 even better performance...).
215
2166.05 Thu Aug 4 21:36:36 CEST 2011
217 - blush, condvar values would not be propagated from send to recv anymore
218 (reported by Chip Salzenberg).
219 - use exponential increase for the readline buffer length in
220 Coro::Handle. also reduce initial allocation to 1020 from 4096 bytes.
221
2226.04 Wed Aug 3 17:15:45 CEST 2011
223 - use even more efficient and more compatible condvars for
224 compatibility to AnyEvent 6.x :)
225 - more inconsequential ecb.h updates.
226
2276.03 Wed Aug 3 11:41:30 CEST 2011
228 - change how Coro patches AnyEvent condvars for compatibility to
229 AnyEvent 6.x.
230 - update ecb.h, to no longer include <pthread.h> in case WinNT.h
231 hasn't been included.
232
2336.02 Wed Jul 13 04:35:19 CEST 2011
234 - "improve portability to Gentoo" - gentoo manages to put perl variables
235 in memory areas that are farther than 2gb apart, which the jit couldn't
236 handle and barfed. now it's just a bit slower on gentoo and similar
237 systems.
238
2396.01 Sun Jul 3 12:31:14 CEST 2011
240 - workarounds are good, but the test for whether pthreads are used
241 was not good. this one should be better.
242 - check differently whether gcc generates cfi instructions itself.
243
2446.0 Wed Jun 29 19:43:35 CEST 2011
245 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: unreferenced coro objects will now be
246 destroyed and cleaned up automatically (e.g. async { schedule }).
247 - implement a JIT compiler for part of the thread switch code,
248 which gives a 50% speed improvement on threaded perls, and
249 about 4% on non-threaded perls (so threaded perls now finally
250 reach about half the speed of non-threaded perls).
251 - slightly modernise Coro::Intro, add section about rouse functions.
252 - avoid DEFSV and ERRSV, giving another 10% improvement
253 in thread switching.
254 - Coro::State->is_destroyed is now called is_zombie.
255 - implement a Coro->safe_cancel method that might fail, but
256 cancels in a "safer" way if it succeeds.
257 - add preliminary support for DEBUGGING perls.
258 - get rid of two hash-accesses when initialising a new Coro - this
259 speeds up coro creation by almost a factor of two.
260 - croak when a coro that is being cancelled tries to block
261 (e.g. while executing a guard block), instead of crashing or
262 deadlocking.
263 - use a more robust and also faster method to identify Coro::State
264 objects - speeds up everything a bit.
265 - implement Coro->cancel in XS for a 20% speed improvement, and to
266 be able to implement mutual cancellation.
267 - speed up context switches by a percent or two by more efficiently
268 allocating context stack entries.
269 - implement Coro->join and Coro->on_destroy in XS for a speedup and
270 a reduction in memory use.
271 - cancelling a coro while it itself is cancelling another coro is
272 now supported and working, instead of triggering an assertion.
273 - be a bit more crash-resistant when calling (buggy) on_destroy
274 callbacks (best effort).
275 - move on_destroy into the slf_frame, to allow extension slf
276 functions to have destructors.
277 - get rid if coro refcounting - simply crash in other interpreter
278 threads by nulling the pointers on clone.
279 - simplify warn/die hook handling when loading Coro - the convoluted
280 logic seems to be no longer neccessary.
281 - use libecb instead of our own home-grown gcc hacks.
282 - document alternatives to Coro::LWP. Please use them :)
283 - work around another mindless idiotic NEEDLESS bug in openbsd/mirbsds
284 sigaltstack. Really. wine suffers from it, erlang suffers from it,
285 and it's known since at least 2006.
286
2875.372 Wed Feb 23 06:14:30 CET 2011
288 - apparently mingw doesn't provide a working gettimeofday, try to
289 work around that by relying on Time::HiRes (indirectly brought to
290 my attention by Max Maischein).
291 - fix some portability issues when Time::HiRes was used.
292
2935.371 Mon Feb 21 14:36:08 CET 2011
294 - backport to windows process emulation code again.
295
2965.37 Sat Feb 19 07:49:44 CET 2011
297 - add a big "Coro thread life cycle" section to "man Coro".
298 - try a tentative workaround against the breakage that 5.13 has
299 introduced without depreciation period. sigh.
300 - no longer use Time::HiRes if gettimeofday is available, which
301 saves quite a lot of memory.
302
3035.36 Sun Feb 13 05:33:41 CET 2011
304 - automatically load Coro::Channel, Coro::RWLock, Coro::Semaphore,
305 Coro::SemaphoreSet, Coro::Signal and Coro::Specific on first "new"
306 method call.
307 - undocument Coro::Timer::sleep and obsolete whole module.
308 - optimise Coro::Timer::timeout memory and cpu usage.
309 - slightly updated Coro::Intro for recent changes.
310 - do not initialise PL_dirty anymore.
311
3125.25 Thu Nov 11 01:08:39 CET 2010
313 - try a different approach on netbsd - netbsd 5 finally has marginally
314 working pthreads, but still broken ucontext/sigaltstack.
315 - openbsd 4.8 finally got their act together, Coro works out of the box
316 with asm, setjmp and pthreads (no change, just informational).
317
3185.24 Sat Oct 23 11:27:12 CEST 2010
319 - port to the EV 4.0 API.
320 - work around bugs in mingw32, making strawberry perl work
321 out of the box.
322 - correctly modify Coro::AIO function prototypes
323 so that they reflect the "no optional parameters" rule.
324 - "ported" libcoro to C++.
325
3265.23 Mon May 17 18:50:42 CEST 2010
327 - be more resistant to ordering changes when initialising
328 Coro::AnyEvent, Coro::EV and Coro::Event (reported by Matthias
329 Waldorf).
330 - document that perl 5.12 deliberately removed support for cloning.
331
3325.22 Wed Apr 14 03:55:35 CEST 2010
333 - correctly return udnef on errors in Coro::Handle::read/write
334 (testcase by Marc Mims).
335 - convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions
336 are less useful now, but are drop-in replacements for existing
337 functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also
338 fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton
339 with Coro::Util::inet_aton.
340 - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other
341 modules could have provided their own idle coro already
342 (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent).
343 - fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions.
344 - Coro::Timer corretcly exports it's symbols (reported by Hideki Yamamura).
345
3465.21 Wed Dec 16 07:19:51 CET 2009
347 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used
348 together.
349 - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in
350 Coro::AnyEvent, and how to run it (and not to block). Seems to be
351 the most common source of confusion.
352 - try to catch people naively blocking in an event callback.
353 - work around the perl filehandle bug issue in conjunction with
354 older common::sense (as indirectly pointed out by ZSystem).
355 - clarify the "not from signal handlers" section.
356
3575.2 Sun Oct 4 14:54:24 CEST 2009
358 - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped.
359 - export rouse_cb and rouse_wait by default now.
360 - fix various prototype mismatches in Coro::AnyEvent and Coro::Handle.
361 - new method $state->swap_sv.
362 - added section on "windows process emulation" to the manpage,
363 after a not-so-fruitful (nor-friendly) "discussion" with chip
364 salzenberg (discussion implies arguments, but his only arguments
365 were ad-hominems, one wonders why he started it in the first
366 place). I hope this explains it well enough for him to understand,
367 and maybe well enough for others to understand.
368 - use common::sense everywhere now.
369 - idle callbacks are no longer supported, use idle coros instead.
370 - print a thread listing when a deadlock is detected.
371
3725.17 Sat Aug 22 23:09:31 CEST 2009
373 - work around a bug in the perl debugger causing crashes
374 when running under the debugger by marking _pool_handler as nodebug.
375 - speed up Coro::async considerably.
376 - try some hacks to get netbsd to work "more often" - their broken
377 setjmp/longjmp, ucontext *and* phtreads are really hard on Coro.
378 - convert Coro to AE 5.0 API.
379
3805.162 Tue Jul 28 04:04:03 CEST 2009
381 - perl 5.8.2 is now minimum requirement.
382 - skip t/19_handle.t on broken windows perls.
383
3845.161 Wed Jul 22 04:47:38 CEST 2009
385 - Coro::AnyEvent::poll could have a different prototype when EV was
386 used as backend (analyzed by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa).
387 - Coro::AnyEvent errornously initialised the event loop when loaded,
388 not on demand.
389 - try to workaround rare */t/01_unblock.t failures.
390
3915.16 Tue Jul 21 01:44:37 CEST 2009
392 - Coro::AnyEvent failed to hook into the event loop
393 when no threads had been readied between detecting
394 the event loop and actually running it.
395 - considerably speed up Coro::Select by taking avdantage
396 of AnyEvent > 4.8 and some other optimisations.
397 - implement paragraph readline mode in Coro::Handle
398 (based on patches by Zsbán Ambrus).
399 - replace WSAEINPROGRESS by WSAEWOULDBLOCK (reported
400 and analyzed by Yasuhiro MATSUMOTO).
401 - clarified libcoro license and copyright.
402 - someone stole my EXTRA_META!!!
403 - implement Coro::Select::patch_pp_sselect and it's brother,
404 for hardcode select overriding.
405
4065.151 Mon Jul 6 05:41:57 CEST 2009
407 - backport to windows process emulation code again (patch by
408 Yasuhiro MATSUMOTO).
409 - slightly update Coro::MakeMaker.
410
4115.15 Tue Jun 30 10:28:06 CEST 2009
412 - deprecate Coro::Socket, document how to get ipv6 support via
413 AnyEvent::Socket instead.
414 - implement signal->wait ($cb) interface, similar to semaphores.
415 - work around SvOK not supporting getmagic, so we have to getmagic
416 to test for undef :/ (reported by Matthias Waldorf).
417 - load Coro::AnyEvent in all modules using AnyEvent.
418 - work around perl corrupting our internal data structures,
419 reported by Tokuhiro Matsuno.
420 - enable per-coroutine real and cpu time gathering
421 (Coro::State::enable_times).
422
4235.14 Wed Jun 24 01:37:48 CEST 2009
424 - provide explicit functions to "cede" to the event loop in Coro::AnyEvent,
425 as this seems to have been a difficult concept (poll, sleep, idle,
426 idle_upto).
427 - add Coro::AnyEvent::readable/writable functions.
428 - clarify Coro::EV/Event/AnyEvent manpages.
429 - free per-thread global scalars in the thread calling ->cancel, to
430 avoid crashes when $_, $@ etc., are magical but some of those
431 had already been freed.
432 - "unexperimentalise" the callback interface for Coro::Semaphore.
433 - speed up ready queue management/context switching by using a linked
434 list instead of an array (~5-10%).
435 - implement "watch" command in Coro::Debug shells.
436 - for fun, implement time-slicing as an example in the manpage.
437 - if AnyEvent detects EV or Event, but we don't have Coro::EV or
438 Coro::Event, use the normal AnyEvent handling instead of dieing
439 (the same is true for Coro::Handle).
440 - properly document Coro::EV::timed_io_once.
441 - avoid unneccessary ->cancel calls in Coro::Handle.
442 - maybe make it work on mingw32 with win32 backend
443 (based on patch by Yasuhiro Matsumoto).
9 444
