10 | - support magic values as timed_io_once args. |
|
|
11 | - recommend AnyEvent 7+ or EV 4+, also require EV |
|
|
12 | version 4 or newer for Coro::EV. |

|
|
15 | - updated ecb.h, it had a typo that caused it to not compile on many |
|
|
16 | big endian systems (reported by many people). |
|
|
17 | - disable memory fences in ecb.h to improve portability. |

|
|
20 | - Coro::EV I/O watchers were not interruptible by exceptions |
|
|
21 | (Coro::State::throw) (testcase by sten). |
|
|
22 | - ->throw now puts threads into the ready queue, as this seems to |
|
|
23 | be expected by existing code, and code that doesn't cope with spurious |
|
|
24 | wakeups needs fixing anyway. |
|
|
25 | - use fd -1 in mmap. |
|
|
26 | - cast I32 to int in error message printf. |
|
|
27 | - warn about broken so-called "hardened" kernels. |
|
|
28 | |
|
|
29 | 6.08 Fri Apr 13 12:05:47 CEST 2012 |
|
|
30 | - be more aggressive about exiting like perl does - formerly, |
|
|
31 | exiting from the non-main thread would not execute END blocks. |
|
|
32 | |
|
|
33 | 6.07 Fri Nov 11 21:21:48 CET 2011 |
|
|
34 | - work around a bug in PerlIO (setting $SIG{__WARN__} to a PVCV). |
|
|
35 | - update ecb.h. |
|
|

|
38 | - cygwin unfortunately patches the stack at runtime, so we use the pthreads |
|
|
39 | backend, which is an order of magnitude slower. unfortunately, cygwins |
|
|
40 | pthread implementation isn't very complete either, so allocate the stack |
|
|
41 | twice just to be sure. |
|
|
42 | (note: cygwin also enables mymalloc, which is NOT THREADSAFE ON WINDOWS, |
|
|
43 | in its ithreaded perl - best recompile cygwin and use the 'w'indows |
|
|
44 | backend for much better performance. also disable ithreads for |
|
|
45 | even better performance...). |

|
|
48 | - blush, condvar values would not be propagated from send to recv anymore |
|
|
49 | (reported by Chip Salzenberg). |
|
|
50 | - use exponential increase for the readline buffer length in |
|
|
51 | Coro::Handle. also reduce initial allocation to 1020 from 4096 bytes. |
|
|
52 | |
|
|
53 | 6.04 Wed Aug 3 17:15:45 CEST 2011 |
|
|
54 | - use even more efficient and more compatible condvars for |
|
|
55 | compatibility to AnyEvent 6.x :) |
|
|
56 | - more inconsequential ecb.h updates. |
|
|
57 | |
|
|
58 | 6.03 Wed Aug 3 11:41:30 CEST 2011 |
|
|
59 | - change how Coro patches AnyEvent condvars for compatibility to |
|
|
60 | AnyEvent 6.x. |
|
|
61 | - update ecb.h, to no longer include <pthread.h> in case WinNT.h |
|
|
62 | hasn't been included. |
|
|
