10 - fix memory leak when Coro::Handle uses Coro::EV internally
11 (testcase by Sten Sten).
12 - update code to libev 4 API (internally, Coro still used the
13 version 3 API calls).
14 - remove unused hv_sig.
15
166.47 Sat Jul 11 03:58:20 CEST 2015
17 - swap_svs - NVs can be in the SV head beginning with 5.20.
18
196.46 Tue Jun 30 14:36:30 CEST 2015
20 - restore portability to perls with windows fork emulation
21 (patch by Petr Písař).
22
236.45 Tue Jun 30 01:40:08 CEST 2015
24 - restore portability to perl 5.16 and below.
25
266.44 Tue Jun 30 00:41:54 CEST 2015
27 - avoid segfaulting (or worse) when tracing a canceled thread.
28 - the Event module silently broke it's public hook API, causing
29 failures on perls compiled with -Duselongdouble. Requiring
30 the latest version of Event because I don't know which release
31 changed this (it's not mentioned in the ChangeLog).
32 - allow xs level enterleave hooks via CoroAPI.
33
346.43 Thu Jun 4 15:38:14 CEST 2015
35 - use stability canary.
36 - port to stableperl-5.22.0-1.001.
37 - update libecb.
38
396.42 Wed Feb 11 20:29:52 CET 2015
40 - Coro::SemaphoreSet->try did not actually work (analyzed by
41 SATO Kentaro).
42 - upgrade libecb to be C11 compliant.
43
446.41 Sat Sep 6 22:08:46 CEST 2014
45 - restore portability to perl 5.8.x.
46 - give new Coro's a valid GvHV(PL_hintgv) - this is slow and takes
47 up some memory, but fixes "use feature" and similar modules
48 when used inside a Coro.
49 - allow zero as argument to Coro::Channel to mean the same thing
50 as no argument. this works with older versions as well,
51 but wasn't legal until now.
52 - slightly better c header file detection.
53
546.39 Mon Jun 2 00:00:08 CEST 2014
55 - work around more incompatible changes in 5.20.
56
576.38 Sun Jun 1 21:54:23 CEST 2014
58 - check that perl slots actually have enough space to hold
59 interpreter variables.
60 - untested port to perl 5.19 (64 bit tmps indices) (reported
61 by Andreas König).
62 - croak when cancel is called without a thread context.
63
646.37 Tue Mar 4 13:27:33 CET 2014
65 - *sigh*, removed leftover debugging code from debugging a
66 perl bug, of all things.
67
686.36 Tue Mar 4 07:11:59 CET 2014
69 - semaphores would not clear the destroy hook when interrupted
70 by ->throw, causing segfaults or worse.
71 - ->throw on a thread waiting for a semaphore did not acquire
72 the semaphore, but also didn't wake up other waiters,
73 possibly causing a deadlock.
74 - "FATAL: $Coro::IDLE blocked itself" will now use Carp::confess
75 to report a full stacktrace, which should help find out
76 where the actual call is.
77 - "atomically" destroy data in slf_destroy, because it is
78 the right thing to do, just in case.
79 - disable ecb.h libm dependency, to compile on ancient systems
80 or under adverse conditions.
81
826.33 Mon Nov 18 11:26:27 CET 2013
83 - do not crash when freeing padlists with holes (in 5.18).
84 - tentative SVt_BIND 5.19 port/fix.
85
866.32 Tue Nov 5 15:35:35 CET 2013
9 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old 87 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old
10 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl. 88 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl (reported
89 by Darin McBride).
