5 actor model (which is cool in a lot of important aspects (failures!),

26 Coro::schedule;
27 }
28};
29
30 - potential fix for an interesting type of recursive coro
31 destruction (testcase by Christopher J. Madsen).
32 - add connected method as alias for peername in Coro::Handle, as
33 the inherited version does not work for us (analyzed by Simon816).
34 - change jit executable strategy, to hopefully appease more
35 hardened environments.
36
376.57 Wed Jul 29 15:08:44 CEST 2020
38 - override AnyEvent condvar methods "properly", as AnyEvent
39 has support for pluggable condvars since 2011. This also
40 avoids problems with recursive waits by avoiding to mix
41 impl methods with coro code.
42 - allow rouse_wait to be called in a different thread.
43 - slightly clarify rouse_cb/rouse_wait documentation.
44 - slightly improve rouse callback performance and memory usage.
45 - try to report correct calller when throwing exception in
46 on $condvar->recv, not a useless line in Coro::AnyEvent.
47
486.56 Thu Feb 20 19:40:07 CET 2020
49 - Coro::EV::time*once functions used ev_once, which is not cancelable.
50 This could cause problems due to I/O watchers not being stopped up
51 on exceptions/cancellation.
52
536.55 Fri Jul 19 17:28:09 CEST 2019
54 - Coro::RWLock woke up only one reader instead of all after a wrlock
55 (analyzed and patch by Maxim Skorobogatov).
56 - slightly improved documentation of Coro::RWLock and RWLock testcase.
57 - quickly (re)-ported to minix 3.3 before minix crashed again.
58
596.54 Sun Dec 16 11:06:07 CET 2018
60 - reinstate Coro::Select::select prototype - it breaks more than it fixes.
61
626.53 Sun Dec 16 10:33:15 CET 2018
63 - the autogenerated prototypes of Coro::AIO now add ";" at the end
64 to avoid generating named unary operators and messing up parsing
65 (mostly affects aio_mlockall 4 | 8 which was parsed as
66 (aio_mlockall 4) | 8).
67 - do not use a prototype for select in Coro::Select, as CORE::select also
68 doesn't have one.
69
706.52 Tue Aug 14 18:49:43 CEST 2018
71 - libcoro update: allow sharing of coro threads using the pthreads
72 backend among different pthreads, as is required by Coro::Multicore.
73 - always allow ->call and ->eval when the coro is the current coroutine. this
74 makes it possible, among other things, to call these on $Coro::main.
75 - minor code cleanups.
76
776.514 Thu Aug 31 18:25:31 CEST 2017
78 - safe_cancel no longer croaks when called on already-destroyed
79 thread, but instead "just works".
80
816.513 Sat Jul 15 01:18:51 CEST 2017
82 - experimental 5.22 comaptibility changes (PadlistNAMES).
83 - removed attributes example and made sure the other examples
84 still work.
85 - fix some statevar types for newer perls, should be of no consequence.
86
876.512 Fri Jul 14 05:03:17 CEST 2017
88 - seems to pass test suite down till 5.8.9, so make this the
89 minimum requirement in Makefile.PL.
90 - experimental 5.24 compatibility changes (SUB_ARGARRAY).
91 - experimental 5.26 compatibility changes (PL_comppad -> PADOFFSET).
92 - disable FORTIFY_SOURCE to avoid broken (but well-intentioned)
93 fortified longjmp variants in some libcs.
94 - re-try JIT allocation without PROT_EXEC, to hopefully improve
95 portability (still doesn't seem to work around broken selinux
96 mmap everywhere).
97 - speling fixes (Xavier Guimard).
98
996.511 Sun Jun 26 23:44:50 CEST 2016
100 - make it compile with threaded perls again.
101 - simplify and speed up __DIE__ and __WARN__ handling.
102
1036.51 Sat Jun 25 20:57:20 CEST 2016
104 - 6.5 release didn't compile on most older perls due to
105 a logic error enabling experimental 5.24 code for all versions.
106 - since various broken or deficient patches float around
107 to work around the vtbl API breakage in perl, let's provide
108 our own workaround, which seems to be much less invasive
109 and more compatible than the approaches seen so far. YMMV.
110 - work around assertion failure in perl_destruct on 5.24
111 (analyzed by Dave Mitchell).
112
1136.5 Wed Jun 22 22:23:50 CEST 2016
114 - swap_sv swapping order was not symmetrical, causing
115 wrong swaps when swap_sv was used multiple times on the
116 same sv in the same thread.
117 - swap_sv calls can now be undone by calling it again
118 with the same variables.
119 - swap_sv calls will now be undone in async_pool threads.
120 - split Coro::Semaphore::up/adjust into separate xs functions
121 for better error reporting, at slight codesize increase.
122 - (libcoro) arm assembly support, please test and report.
123 - adjust to PL_savestack changes in perl 5.24 (adapted from
124 the debian patch, which unfortunately gets it wrong).
125
1266.49 Sat Oct 17 01:40:12 CEST 2015
127 - throwing an exception to a thread waiting in
128 Coro::Handle using Coro::EV did not stop the watchers,
129 causing the next call to fail (testcase by Martin Pritchard).
130 - bump minimum perl version to 5.10.
131
1326.48 Sun Oct 4 19:03:51 CEST 2015
133 - fix memory leak when Coro::Handle uses Coro::EV internally
134 (testcase by Sten Sten).
135 - update code to libev 4 API (internally, Coro still used the
136 version 3 API calls).
137 - remove unused hv_sig.
138
1396.47 Sat Jul 11 03:58:20 CEST 2015
140 - swap_svs - NVs can be in the SV head beginning with 5.20.
141
1426.46 Tue Jun 30 14:36:30 CEST 2015
143 - restore portability to perls with windows fork emulation
144 (patch by Petr Písař).
145
1466.45 Tue Jun 30 01:40:08 CEST 2015
147 - restore portability to perl 5.16 and below.
148
1496.44 Tue Jun 30 00:41:54 CEST 2015
150 - avoid segfaulting (or worse) when tracing a canceled thread.
151 - the Event module silently broke it's public hook API, causing
152 failures on perls compiled with -Duselongdouble. Requiring
153 the latest version of Event because I don't know which release
154 changed this (it's not mentioned in the ChangeLog).
155 - allow xs level enterleave hooks via CoroAPI.
156
1576.43 Thu Jun 4 15:38:14 CEST 2015
158 - use stability canary.
159 - port to stableperl-5.22.0-1.001.
160 - update libecb.
161
1626.42 Wed Feb 11 20:29:52 CET 2015
163 - Coro::SemaphoreSet->try did not actually work (analyzed by
164 SATO Kentaro).
165 - upgrade libecb to be C11 compliant.
166
1676.41 Sat Sep 6 22:08:46 CEST 2014
168 - restore portability to perl 5.8.x.
169 - give new Coro's a valid GvHV(PL_hintgv) - this is slow and takes
170 up some memory, but fixes "use feature" and similar modules
171 when used inside a Coro.
172 - allow zero as argument to Coro::Channel to mean the same thing
173 as no argument. this works with older versions as well,
174 but wasn't legal until now.
175 - slightly better c header file detection.
176
1776.39 Mon Jun 2 00:00:08 CEST 2014
178 - work around more incompatible changes in 5.20.
179
1806.38 Sun Jun 1 21:54:23 CEST 2014
181 - check that perl slots actually have enough space to hold
182 interpreter variables.
183 - untested port to perl 5.19 (64 bit tmps indices) (reported
184 by Andreas König).
185 - croak when cancel is called without a thread context.
186
1876.37 Tue Mar 4 13:27:33 CET 2014
188 - *sigh*, removed leftover debugging code from debugging a
189 perl bug, of all things.
190
1916.36 Tue Mar 4 07:11:59 CET 2014
192 - semaphores would not clear the destroy hook when interrupted
193 by ->throw, causing segfaults or worse.
194 - ->throw on a thread waiting for a semaphore did not acquire
195 the semaphore, but also didn't wake up other waiters,
196 possibly causing a deadlock.
197 - "FATAL: $Coro::IDLE blocked itself" will now use Carp::confess
198 to report a full stacktrace, which should help find out
199 where the actual call is.
200 - "atomically" destroy data in slf_destroy, because it is
201 the right thing to do, just in case.
202 - disable ecb.h libm dependency, to compile on ancient systems
203 or under adverse conditions.
204
2056.33 Mon Nov 18 11:26:27 CET 2013
206 - do not crash when freeing padlists with holes (in 5.18).
207 - tentative SVt_BIND 5.19 port/fix.
208
2096.32 Tue Nov 5 15:35:35 CET 2013
210 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old
211 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl (reported
212 by Darin McBride).
213
2146.31 Thu May 9 07:39:48 CEST 2013
215 - Coro::AIO requests would crash if the thread was ready'd
216 while the request was ongoing.
217
2186.29 Wed May 8 02:55:18 CEST 2013
219 - when an on_destroy handler destructs the coro currently being
220 destructed a perl scalar could be accessed after being freed,
221 likely causing a crash.
222
2236.28 Wed Mar 6 06:58:02 CET 2013
224 - clean remnants of existing __DIE__ and __WARN__ handlers so
225 they lose their magic and will not cause segfaults later
226 (testcase by Andrey Sagulin).
227 - improved Coro::State documentation a bit.
228 - Coro::Debug::command now flushes the output.
229 - add hack detection code for x32 abi, because the braindead slugs
230 who designed that made it look exactly like x86_64 without
231 providing proper compile time symbols to test for it. as a result,
232 this detection cannot work reliably.
233 - valgrind stack registering was broken.
234 - do not rely on Time::HiRes anymore in Coro::Debug.
235
2366.23 Fri Dec 7 23:36:37 CET 2012
237 - use experimental fiber implementation on native windows
238 perls.
239 - use sizeof (void *) as multiplication factor for stack sizes,
240 to accomodate the totally braindamaged microsoft 64 bit "os".
241 - changed verifier host from win2k-ap510-32 to win7-sp516-32/64.
242 activeperl 5.16 crashes when PerlIO_define_layer is called due
243 to some bug in the perl dll, strawberry perl at least passes
244 the testsuite.
245 - implement Coro::Handle->peeraddr/host/port, for slightly
246 improved compatibility with LWP.
247 - implement 5.17 compatibility by almost blindly applying a
248 good-looking patch by Father Chrysostomos.
249 - move stack management functions into libcoro 3.
250 - libcoro version 3 "released".
251 - support magic values as timed_io_once args.
252 - recommend AnyEvent 7+ or EV 4+, also require EV
253 version 4 or newer for Coro::EV.
254
2556.10 Tue Oct 9 01:14:27 CEST 2012
256 - updated ecb.h, it had a typo that caused it to not compile on many
257 big endian systems (reported by many people).
258 - disable memory fences in ecb.h to improve portability.
259
2606.09 Sat Oct 6 23:25:02 CEST 2012
261 - Coro::EV I/O watchers were not interruptible by exceptions
262 (Coro::State::throw) (testcase by sten).
263 - ->throw now puts threads into the ready queue, as this seems to
264 be expected by existing code, and code that doesn't cope with spurious
265 wakeups needs fixing anyway.
266 - use fd -1 in mmap.
267 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
268 - warn about broken so-called "hardened" kernels.
269
2706.08 Fri Apr 13 12:05:47 CEST 2012
271 - be more aggressive about exiting like perl does - formerly,
272 exiting from the non-main thread would not execute END blocks.
273
2746.07 Fri Nov 11 21:21:48 CET 2011
275 - work around a bug in PerlIO (setting $SIG{__WARN__} to a PVCV).
276 - update ecb.h.
277
2786.06 Mon Aug 8 23:59:48 CEST 2011
279 - cygwin unfortunately patches the stack at runtime, so we use the pthreads
280 backend, which is an order of magnitude slower. unfortunately, cygwins
281 pthread implementation isn't very complete either, so allocate the stack
282 twice just to be sure.
283 (note: cygwin also enables mymalloc, which is NOT THREADSAFE ON WINDOWS,
284 in its ithreaded perl - best recompile cygwin and use the 'w'indows
285 backend for much better performance. also disable ithreads for
286 even better performance...).
287
2886.05 Thu Aug 4 21:36:36 CEST 2011
289 - blush, condvar values would not be propagated from send to recv anymore
290 (reported by Chip Salzenberg).
291 - use exponential increase for the readline buffer length in
292 Coro::Handle. also reduce initial allocation to 1020 from 4096 bytes.
293
2946.04 Wed Aug 3 17:15:45 CEST 2011
295 - use even more efficient and more compatible condvars for
296 compatibility to AnyEvent 6.x :)
297 - more inconsequential ecb.h updates.
298
2996.03 Wed Aug 3 11:41:30 CEST 2011
300 - change how Coro patches AnyEvent condvars for compatibility to
301 AnyEvent 6.x.
302 - update ecb.h, to no longer include <pthread.h> in case WinNT.h
303 hasn't been included.
304
3056.02 Wed Jul 13 04:35:19 CEST 2011
306 - "improve portability to Gentoo" - gentoo manages to put perl variables
307 in memory areas that are farther than 2gb apart, which the jit couldn't
308 handle and barfed. now it's just a bit slower on gentoo and similar
309 systems.
310
3116.01 Sun Jul 3 12:31:14 CEST 2011
312 - workarounds are good, but the test for whether pthreads are used
313 was not good. this one should be better.
314 - check differently whether gcc generates cfi instructions itself.
315
3166.0 Wed Jun 29 19:43:35 CEST 2011
317 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: unreferenced coro objects will now be
318 destroyed and cleaned up automatically (e.g. async { schedule }).
319 - implement a JIT compiler for part of the thread switch code,
320 which gives a 50% speed improvement on threaded perls, and
321 about 4% on non-threaded perls (so threaded perls now finally
322 reach about half the speed of non-threaded perls).
323 - slightly modernise Coro::Intro, add section about rouse functions.
324 - avoid DEFSV and ERRSV, giving another 10% improvement
325 in thread switching.
326 - Coro::State->is_destroyed is now called is_zombie.
327 - implement a Coro->safe_cancel method that might fail, but
328 cancels in a "safer" way if it succeeds.
329 - add preliminary support for DEBUGGING perls.
330 - get rid of two hash-accesses when initialising a new Coro - this
331 speeds up coro creation by almost a factor of two.
332 - croak when a coro that is being cancelled tries to block
333 (e.g. while executing a guard block), instead of crashing or
334 deadlocking.
335 - use a more robust and also faster method to identify Coro::State
336 objects - speeds up everything a bit.
337 - implement Coro->cancel in XS for a 20% speed improvement, and to
338 be able to implement mutual cancellation.
339 - speed up context switches by a percent or two by more efficiently
340 allocating context stack entries.
341 - implement Coro->join and Coro->on_destroy in XS for a speedup and
342 a reduction in memory use.
343 - cancelling a coro while it itself is cancelling another coro is
344 now supported and working, instead of triggering an assertion.
345 - be a bit more crash-resistant when calling (buggy) on_destroy
346 callbacks (best effort).
347 - move on_destroy into the slf_frame, to allow extension slf
348 functions to have destructors.
349 - get rid if coro refcounting - simply crash in other interpreter
350 threads by nulling the pointers on clone.
351 - simplify warn/die hook handling when loading Coro - the convoluted
352 logic seems to be no longer neccessary.
353 - use libecb instead of our own home-grown gcc hacks.
354 - document alternatives to Coro::LWP. Please use them :)
355 - work around another mindless idiotic NEEDLESS bug in openbsd/mirbsds
356 sigaltstack. Really. wine suffers from it, erlang suffers from it,
357 and it's known since at least 2006.
358
3595.372 Wed Feb 23 06:14:30 CET 2011
360 - apparently mingw doesn't provide a working gettimeofday, try to
361 work around that by relying on Time::HiRes (indirectly brought to
362 my attention by Max Maischein).
363 - fix some portability issues when Time::HiRes was used.
364
3655.371 Mon Feb 21 14:36:08 CET 2011
366 - backport to windows process emulation code again.
367
3685.37 Sat Feb 19 07:49:44 CET 2011
369 - add a big "Coro thread life cycle" section to "man Coro".
370 - try a tentative workaround against the breakage that 5.13 has
371 introduced without depreciation period. sigh.
372 - no longer use Time::HiRes if gettimeofday is available, which
373 saves quite a lot of memory.
374
3755.36 Sun Feb 13 05:33:41 CET 2011
376 - automatically load Coro::Channel, Coro::RWLock, Coro::Semaphore,
377 Coro::SemaphoreSet, Coro::Signal and Coro::Specific on first "new"
378 method call.
379 - undocument Coro::Timer::sleep and obsolete whole module.
380 - optimise Coro::Timer::timeout memory and cpu usage.
381 - slightly updated Coro::Intro for recent changes.
382 - do not initialise PL_dirty anymore.
383
3845.25 Thu Nov 11 01:08:39 CET 2010
385 - try a different approach on netbsd - netbsd 5 finally has marginally
386 working pthreads, but still broken ucontext/sigaltstack.
387 - openbsd 4.8 finally got their act together, Coro works out of the box
388 with asm, setjmp and pthreads (no change, just informational).
389
3905.24 Sat Oct 23 11:27:12 CEST 2010
391 - port to the EV 4.0 API.
392 - work around bugs in mingw32, making strawberry perl work
393 out of the box.
394 - correctly modify Coro::AIO function prototypes
395 so that they reflect the "no optional parameters" rule.
396 - "ported" libcoro to C++.
397
3985.23 Mon May 17 18:50:42 CEST 2010
399 - be more resistant to ordering changes when initialising
400 Coro::AnyEvent, Coro::EV and Coro::Event (reported by Matthias
401 Waldorf).
402 - document that perl 5.12 deliberately removed support for cloning.
403
4045.22 Wed Apr 14 03:55:35 CEST 2010
405 - correctly return udnef on errors in Coro::Handle::read/write
406 (testcase by Marc Mims).
407 - convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions
408 are less useful now, but are drop-in replacements for existing
409 functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also
410 fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton
411 with Coro::Util::inet_aton.
412 - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other
413 modules could have provided their own idle coro already
414 (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent).
415 - fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions.
416 - Coro::Timer corretcly exports it's symbols (reported by Hideki Yamamura).
417
4185.21 Wed Dec 16 07:19:51 CET 2009
419 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used
420 together.
421 - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in
422 Coro::AnyEvent, and how to run it (and not to block). Seems to be
423 the most common source of confusion.
424 - try to catch people naively blocking in an event callback.
425 - work around the perl filehandle bug issue in conjunction with
426 older common::sense (as indirectly pointed out by ZSystem).
427 - clarify the "not from signal handlers" section.
428
4295.2 Sun Oct 4 14:54:24 CEST 2009
430 - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped.
431 - export rouse_cb and rouse_wait by default now.
432 - fix various prototype mismatches in Coro::AnyEvent and Coro::Handle.
433 - new method $state->swap_sv.
434 - added section on "windows process emulation" to the manpage,
435 after a not-so-fruitful (nor-friendly) "discussion" with chip
436 salzenberg (discussion implies arguments, but his only arguments
437 were ad-hominems, one wonders why he started it in the first
438 place). I hope this explains it well enough for him to understand,
439 and maybe well enough for others to understand.
440 - use common::sense everywhere now.
441 - idle callbacks are no longer supported, use idle coros instead.
442 - print a thread listing when a deadlock is detected.
443
4445.17 Sat Aug 22 23:09:31 CEST 2009
445 - work around a bug in the perl debugger causing crashes
446 when running under the debugger by marking _pool_handler as nodebug.
447 - speed up Coro::async considerably.
448 - try some hacks to get netbsd to work "more often" - their broken
449 setjmp/longjmp, ucontext *and* phtreads are really hard on Coro.
