10 - port to stableperl-5.22.0-1.001. 116.56 Thu Feb 20 19:40:07 CET 2020
12 - Coro::EV::time*once functions used ev_once, which is not cancelable.
13 This could cause problems due to I/O watchers not being stopped up
14 on exceptions/cancellation.
15
166.55 Fri Jul 19 17:28:09 CEST 2019
17 - Coro::RWLock woke up only one reader instead of all after a wrlock
18 (analyzed and patch by Maxim Skorobogatov).
19 - slightly improved documentation of Coro::RWLock and RWLock testcase.
20 - quickly (re)-ported to minix 3.3 before minix crashed again.
21
226.54 Sun Dec 16 11:06:07 CET 2018
23 - reinstate Coro::Select::select prototype - it breaks more than it fixes.
24
256.53 Sun Dec 16 10:33:15 CET 2018
26 - the autogenerated prototypes of Coro::AIO now add ";" at the end
27 to avoid generating named unary operators and messing up parsing
28 (mostly affects aio_mlockall 4 | 8 which was parsed as
29 (aio_mlockall 4) | 8).
30 - do not use a prototype for select in Coro::Select, as CORE::select also
31 doesn't have one.
32
336.52 Tue Aug 14 18:49:43 CEST 2018
34 - libcoro update: allow sharing of coro threads using the pthreads
35 backend among different pthreads, as is required by Coro::Multicore.
36 - always allow ->call and ->eval when the coro is the current coroutine. this
37 makes it possible, among other things, to call these on $Coro::main.
38 - minor code cleanups.
39
406.514 Thu Aug 31 18:25:31 CEST 2017
41 - safe_cancel no longer croaks when called on already-destroyed
42 thread, but instead "just works".
43
446.513 Sat Jul 15 01:18:51 CEST 2017
45 - experimental 5.22 comaptibility changes (PadlistNAMES).
46 - removed attributes example and made sure the other examples
47 still work.
48 - fix some statevar types for newer perls, should be of no consequence.
49
506.512 Fri Jul 14 05:03:17 CEST 2017
51 - seems to pass test suite down till 5.8.9, so make this the
52 minimum requirement in Makefile.PL.
53 - experimental 5.24 compatibility changes (SUB_ARGARRAY).
54 - experimental 5.26 compatibility changes (PL_comppad -> PADOFFSET).
55 - disable FORTIFY_SOURCE to avoid broken (but well-intentioned)
56 fortified longjmp variants in some libcs.
57 - re-try JIT allocation without PROT_EXEC, to hopefully improve
58 portability (still doesn't seem to work around broken selinux
59 mmap everywhere).
60 - speling fixes (Xavier Guimard).
61
626.511 Sun Jun 26 23:44:50 CEST 2016
63 - make it compile with threaded perls again.
64 - simplify and speed up __DIE__ and __WARN__ handling.
65
666.51 Sat Jun 25 20:57:20 CEST 2016
67 - 6.5 release didn't compile on most older perls due to
68 a logic error enabling experimental 5.24 code for all versions.
69 - since various broken or deficient patches float around
70 to work around the vtbl API breakage in perl, let's provide
71 our own workaround, which seems to be much less invasive
72 and more compatible than the approaches seen so far. YMMV.
73 - work around assertion failure in perl_destruct on 5.24
74 (analyzed by Dave Mitchell).
75
766.5 Wed Jun 22 22:23:50 CEST 2016
77 - swap_sv swapping order was not symmetrical, causing
78 wrong swaps when swap_sv was used multiple times on the
79 same sv in the same thread.
80 - swap_sv calls can now be undone by calling it again
81 with the same variables.
82 - swap_sv calls will now be undone in async_pool threads.
83 - split Coro::Semaphore::up/adjust into separate xs functions
84 for better error reporting, at slight codesize increase.
85 - (libcoro) arm assembly support, please test and report.
86 - adjust to PL_savestack changes in perl 5.24 (adapted from
87 the debian patch, which unfortunately gets it wrong).
88
896.49 Sat Oct 17 01:40:12 CEST 2015
90 - throwing an exception to a thread waiting in
91 Coro::Handle using Coro::EV did not stop the watchers,
92 causing the next call to fail (testcase by Martin Pritchard).
93 - bump minimum perl version to 5.10.
94
956.48 Sun Oct 4 19:03:51 CEST 2015
96 - fix memory leak when Coro::Handle uses Coro::EV internally
97 (testcase by Sten Sten).
98 - update code to libev 4 API (internally, Coro still used the
99 version 3 API calls).
100 - remove unused hv_sig.
101
1026.47 Sat Jul 11 03:58:20 CEST 2015
103 - swap_svs - NVs can be in the SV head beginning with 5.20.
104
1056.46 Tue Jun 30 14:36:30 CEST 2015
106 - restore portability to perls with windows fork emulation
107 (patch by Petr Písař).
108
1096.45 Tue Jun 30 01:40:08 CEST 2015
110 - restore portability to perl 5.16 and below.
111
1126.44 Tue Jun 30 00:41:54 CEST 2015
113 - avoid segfaulting (or worse) when tracing a canceled thread.
114 - the Event module silently broke it's public hook API, causing
115 failures on perls compiled with -Duselongdouble. Requiring
116 the latest version of Event because I don't know which release
117 changed this (it's not mentioned in the ChangeLog).
118 - allow xs level enterleave hooks via CoroAPI.
11 119
126.43 Thu Jun 4 15:38:14 CEST 2015 1206.43 Thu Jun 4 15:38:14 CEST 2015
13 - use stability canary. 121 - use stability canary.
122 - port to stableperl-5.22.0-1.001.
14 - update libecb. 123 - update libecb.

166.42 Wed Feb 11 20:29:52 CET 2015 1256.42 Wed Feb 11 20:29:52 CET 2015
17 - Coro::SemaphoreSet->try did not actually work (analyzed by 126 - Coro::SemaphoreSet->try did not actually work (analyzed by
18 SATO Kentaro). 127 SATO Kentaro).
