35TODO: warnhook reports from wrong line number now, when arg is Math::GMP number.
36 - FATAL: $Coro::IDLE blocked itself will now use Carp::confess
37 to report a full stacktrace, which should help find out
38 where the actual call is.
39 - "atomically" destroy data in slf_destroy, because it is
40 the right thing to do, just in case.
41 - disable ecb.h libm dependency, to compile on ancient systems
42 or under adverse conditions.
43
446.33 Mon Nov 18 11:26:27 CET 2013
45 - do not crash when freeing padlists with holes (in 5.18).
46 - tentative SVt_BIND 5.19 port/fix.
47
486.32 Tue Nov 5 15:35:35 CET 2013
49 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old
50 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl (reported
51 by Darin McBride).
52
536.31 Thu May 9 07:39:48 CEST 2013
54 - Coro::AIO requests would crash if the thread was ready'd
55 while the request was ongoing.
56
576.29 Wed May 8 02:55:18 CEST 2013
58 - when an on_destroy handler destructs the coro currently being
59 destructed a perl scalar could be accessed after being freed,
60 likely causing a crash.
61
626.28 Wed Mar 6 06:58:02 CET 2013
63 - clean remnants of existing __DIE__ and __WARN__ handlers so
64 they lose their magic and will not cause segfaults later
65 (testcase by Andrey Sagulin).
66 - improved Coro::State documentation a bit.
67 - Coro::Debug::command now flushes the output.
68 - add hack detection code for x32 abi, because the braindead slugs
69 who designed that made it look exactly like x86_64 without
70 providing proper compile time symbols to test for it. as a result,
71 this detection cannot work reliably.
72 - valgrind stack registering was broken.
73 - do not rely on Time::HiRes anymore in Coro::Debug.
74
756.23 Fri Dec 7 23:36:37 CET 2012
76 - use experimental fiber implementation on native windows
77 perls.
78 - use sizeof (void *) as multiplication factor for stack sizes,
79 to accomodate the totally braindamaged microsoft 64 bit "os".
80 - changed verifier host from win2k-ap510-32 to win7-sp516-32/64.
81 activeperl 5.16 crashes when PerlIO_define_layer is called due
82 to some bug in the perl dll, strawberry perl at least passes
83 the testsuite.
84 - implement Coro::Handle->peeraddr/host/port, for slightly
85 improved compatibility with LWP.
86 - implement 5.17 compatibility by almost blindly applying a
87 good-looking patch by Father Chrysostomos.
88 - move stack management functions into libcoro 3.
89 - libcoro version 3 "released".
90 - support magic values as timed_io_once args.
91 - recommend AnyEvent 7+ or EV 4+, also require EV
92 version 4 or newer for Coro::EV.
93
946.10 Tue Oct 9 01:14:27 CEST 2012
95 - updated ecb.h, it had a typo that caused it to not compile on many
96 big endian systems (reported by many people).
97 - disable memory fences in ecb.h to improve portability.
98
996.09 Sat Oct 6 23:25:02 CEST 2012
100 - Coro::EV I/O watchers were not interruptible by exceptions
101 (Coro::State::throw) (testcase by sten).
102 - ->throw now puts threads into the ready queue, as this seems to
103 be expected by existing code, and code that doesn't cope with spurious
104 wakeups needs fixing anyway.
105 - use fd -1 in mmap.
106 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
107 - warn about broken so-called "hardened" kernels.
108
1096.08 Fri Apr 13 12:05:47 CEST 2012
110 - be more aggressive about exiting like perl does - formerly,
111 exiting from the non-main thread would not execute END blocks.
112
1136.07 Fri Nov 11 21:21:48 CET 2011
114 - work around a bug in PerlIO (setting $SIG{__WARN__} to a PVCV).
115 - update ecb.h.
116
1176.06 Mon Aug 8 23:59:48 CEST 2011
118 - cygwin unfortunately patches the stack at runtime, so we use the pthreads
119 backend, which is an order of magnitude slower. unfortunately, cygwins
120 pthread implementation isn't very complete either, so allocate the stack
121 twice just to be sure.
122 (note: cygwin also enables mymalloc, which is NOT THREADSAFE ON WINDOWS,
123 in its ithreaded perl - best recompile cygwin and use the 'w'indows
124 backend for much better performance. also disable ithreads for
125 even better performance...).
126
1276.05 Thu Aug 4 21:36:36 CEST 2011
128 - blush, condvar values would not be propagated from send to recv anymore
129 (reported by Chip Salzenberg).
130 - use exponential increase for the readline buffer length in
131 Coro::Handle. also reduce initial allocation to 1020 from 4096 bytes.
132
1336.04 Wed Aug 3 17:15:45 CEST 2011
134 - use even more efficient and more compatible condvars for
135 compatibility to AnyEvent 6.x :)
136 - more inconsequential ecb.h updates.

76.03 Wed Aug 3 11:41:30 CEST 2011 1386.03 Wed Aug 3 11:41:30 CEST 2011
8 - change how Coro patches AnyEvent condvars for compatibility to 139 - change how Coro patches AnyEvent condvars for compatibility to
9 AnyEvent 6.x. 140 AnyEvent 6.x.
