1Revision history for Perl extension Coro. 1Revision history for Perl extension Coro.
2 2
32.1
4TODO: aioreq_pri etc.
5 - use a simpler and hopefully more robust way to clone padlists
6 (uses less memory and a perl function instead of our own).
7 - coro can now create a stack guard area on many architectures.
8 - updated libcoro with a workaround for OS X,
9 pach by Michael Schwern.
10 - fix a long-standing bug in Coro::Select where select with
11 zero timeout would instead change the current default filehandle.
12
132.0 Tue Oct 24 05:47:17 CEST 2006
14 - support additional aio requests in Coro::AIO.
15
161.9 (never properly released due to a glitch)
17
181.8 Thu Feb 2 00:59:06 CET 2006
19 - applied suggested patch by SAMV to avoid problems during stupid
20 mark & sweep gc run.
21 - applied patch by Scott Walters for 5.9.3 compatibility.
22
231.7 Tue Dec 27 01:41:58 CET 2005
24 - added Coro::AIO, a thin wrapper around IO::AIO.
25 - improved Makefile.PL explanations.
26
271.6 Mon Dec 12 21:30:05 CET 2005
28 - additionally save PM_curpm might fix as-of-yet
29 unseen problems with regex matches being attributed to the
30 wrong package.
31 - add t/10_bugs.t, which currently checks against imho broken
32 perls that use 0.26MB of stack space per Perl_magic_get
33 invocation (newer linuxes) as opposed to the 0.0002MB perl
34 normally uses.
35 - make stacksize configurable for the ultimate debian experience.
36
371.51 Mon Dec 12 18:48:36 CET 2005
38 - remove debugging warn() accidentally left in Coro::Select.
39
401.5 Tue Nov 29 13:32:44 CET 2005
41 - use Coro::Event inside Coro::Select to avoid spurious deadlocks.
42 - fix Coro::Select 'select'.
43 - strict'ify some modules.
44 - libcoro errornously restored the SIGUSR2 handler to SIGUSR1.
45 - use XSLoader in selected modules.
46 - remove some 5.6 compatibility cruft.
47
481.4 Tue Sep 6 00:11:05 CEST 2005
49 - libcoro did not take into account the trampoline on amd64,
50 when 'l'inux method was used.
51
521.31 Tue Aug 30 23:31:33 CEST 2005
53 - some portability fixes/workarounds.
54
551.3 Sat Aug 20 03:08:56 CEST 2005
56 - no code changes. module seems to work fine.
57 - improve Coro::State docs, remove reference to nonexisting
58 Coro::State::flush method.
59 - no longer autodetect windows, present it as an option instead.
60
611.2 Mon May 16 02:00:55 CEST 2005
62 - included libcoro.c earlier in State.xs, might improve portability.
63 - use a faster and possibly more stable Coro::Cont implementation.
64 - accept x86_64 in addition to amd64 for optimized linux-amd64 support.
65 - fix bugs Coro::SemaphoreSet that could cause locks never to be freed.
66 - fix bugs in CoroAPI.h and document it in Coro::MakeMaker.
67
681.11 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
69 - change of contact address.
70
711.1 Tue Feb 22 20:51:16 CET 2005
72 - support [l]inux method on amd64.
73 - allow some context switches while compiling/eval'ing.
74
751.0 Tue Aug 10 03:47:27 CEST 2004
76 - Event 0.89 fixes the bug again.
77 - fix the remaining(??) memleak. I didn't free the cache-AV for
78 padlists, so one AV per created anon-sub leaked.
79
800.97 Fri May 14 15:23:32 CEST 2004
81 - remove stupid gcc extension that was an experiment only anyway.
82
830.96 Thu May 13 18:09:29 CEST 2004
84 - tell people if they have yet another broken Event variant.
85 - made Coro to work _better_ with threads (it seems that, as long
86 as you use Coros in one thread only everything will work fine.
87 Looking at the perl source the problem might be missing locking
88 between Coro and some perl internal routines. That's not easily
89 fixable).
90 - (hopefully) got rid of the static xnext inside transfer.
91
920.95 Sun Feb 15 03:20:28 CET 2004
93 - removed Coro::State::flush, implemented a new and much
94 faster caching mechanism by attaching magic to the CV.
95 - a memleak with (real) closures remains.
96 - dramatically reduced size of stacks to 65536 (linux/x86), after
97 observing that even myhttpd never had more than a kilobyte
98 of stack in use (stack is still only physically allocated in
99 pagesize increments for systems suporting mmap).
100 - fix for a "cygwin-64" architecture added, proposed by Stefan Traby.
101 - fix for threaded perl.
102
1030.9 Sun Nov 23 04:32:39 CET 2003
104 - fix a few very hard to track down but (of course) stupid
105 memory leaks.
106 - stringify version number to avoid locale problems :(.
107 - perl 5.9.0 does not have SvPADBUSY, reported by Scott Walters,
108 hopefully ignoring it "just works".
109
1100.8 Wed Nov 5 19:38:40 CET 2003
111 - port to perl5.005_03, but only 5.8.x+ is supported!
112 - honor LocalAddr even without LocalPort in Coro::Socket.
113
1140.7 Tue May 27 03:12:38 CEST 2003
115 - the version jump indicates some level of testing, not gobs
116 of new features.
117 - uh... I found the prompt function in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
118 Highly correct stuff, that is...
119 - fixed(?) a bug with die's in coroutines causing "panic: top_env".
120 the fix is not well understood by the author, so beware :(.
121
1220.652 Thu May 8 02:54:46 CEST 2003
123 - Applied patch by Slaven Rezic to set default to "s" on FreeBSD,
124 cause version 4 doesn't have ucontext.
125 - Benjamin Reed reported that setjmp works fine on darwin,
126 so preselect it.
127
1280.651 Sat Mar 29 15:00:23 CET 2003
129 - fix a bug in Coro::Handle where some bytes could get lost
130 on reading, reported by jason@nichego.net.
131
1320.65 Sun Mar 23 00:08:26 CET 2003
133 - added a README.linux-glibc.
134 - new module Coro::Select.
135 - also save/restore PL_comppad, fixes segfaults with 5.8.1.
136 (I never claimed that I know what I am doing ;).
137 - set default to setjmp/longjmp on non-x86-linux.
138
1390.6 Thu Nov 21 11:09:06 CET 2002
140 - made lazy context switching the default.
141 - fixed the bug where SemaphoreSet::guard
142 was the same as timed_guard and timed_guard was missing.
143 - fix a memleak in Coro::Timer.
144 - reclassified context sharing as not experimental.
145
1460.534 Sun Apr 14 03:05:12 CEST 2002
147 - fixed backspace => tab in header parsing (myhttpd).
148 - added eg/readline, for elmex.
149 - Coro::Event now calls ->start on first call instead of
150 ->again, which created wrong timeouts for the first ->next.
151 - fixed a bug where Coro::Socket returned a closed socket instead
152 of nothing on ECONNREFUSED and similar error conditions.
153
1540.533 Mon Feb 18 18:49:40 CET 2002
155 - adapt to finally working Event-0.85.
156 - fixed buggy event initialization (trapped under windows, but how
157 could it possibly have worked anywhere?)
158
1590.532 Wed Jan 16 02:45:32 CET 2002
3 - removed the reference to pp_entersub, might compile on 160 - removed the reference to pp_entersub, might work on
4 (some) win32 perls now. 161 (some) win32 perls now (testsuite works under cygwin,
162 without Event, which freezes).
5 163
60.531 Mon Dec 10 22:18:44 CET 2001 1640.531 Mon Dec 10 22:18:44 CET 2001
7 - Fixed a bug in SemaphoreSet::timed_down. 165 - Fixed a bug in SemaphoreSet::timed_down.
