|
|
12 | - the autogenerated prototypes of Coro::AIO now add ";" at the end |
|
|
13 | to avoid generating named unary operators and messing up parsing |
|
|
14 | (mostly affects aio_mlockall 4 | 8 which was parsed as |
|
|
15 | (aio_mlockall 4) | 8). |
|
|
16 | - do not use a prototype for select in Coro::Select, as CORE::select also |
|
|
17 | doesn't have one. |
|
|
18 | |
|
|
19 | 6.52 Tue Aug 14 18:49:43 CEST 2018 |
|
|
20 | - libcoro update: allow sharing of coro threads using the pthreads |
|
|
21 | backend among different pthreads, as is required by Coro::Multicore. |
|
|
22 | - always allow ->call and ->eval when the coro is the current coroutine. this |
|
|
23 | makes it possible, among other things, to call these on $Coro::main. |
|
|
24 | - minor code cleanups. |
|
|
25 | |
|
|
26 | 6.514 Thu Aug 31 18:25:31 CEST 2017 |
|
|
27 | - safe_cancel no longer croaks when called on already-destroyed |
|
|
28 | thread, but instead "just works". |
|
|
29 | |
|
|
30 | 6.513 Sat Jul 15 01:18:51 CEST 2017 |
|
|
31 | - experimental 5.22 comaptibility changes (PadlistNAMES). |
|
|
32 | - removed attributes example and made sure the other examples |
|
|
33 | still work. |
|
|
34 | - fix some statevar types for newer perls, should be of no consequence. |
|
|
35 | |
|
|
36 | 6.512 Fri Jul 14 05:03:17 CEST 2017 |
|
|
37 | - seems to pass test suite down till 5.8.9, so make this the |
|
|
38 | minimum requirement in Makefile.PL. |
|
|
39 | - experimental 5.24 compatibility changes (SUB_ARGARRAY). |
|
|
40 | - experimental 5.26 compatibility changes (PL_comppad -> PADOFFSET). |
|
|
41 | - disable FORTIFY_SOURCE to avoid broken (but well-intentioned) |
|
|
42 | fortified longjmp variants in some libcs. |
|
|
43 | - re-try JIT allocation without PROT_EXEC, to hopefully improve |
|
|
44 | portability (still doesn't seem to work around broken selinux |
|
|
45 | mmap everywhere). |
|
|
46 | - speling fixes (Xavier Guimard). |
|
|
47 | |
|
|
48 | 6.511 Sun Jun 26 23:44:50 CEST 2016 |
|
|
49 | - make it compile with threaded perls again. |
|
|
50 | - simplify and speed up __DIE__ and __WARN__ handling. |
|
|
51 | |
|
|
52 | 6.51 Sat Jun 25 20:57:20 CEST 2016 |
|
|
53 | - 6.5 release didn't compile on most older perls due to |
|
|
54 | a logic error enabling experimental 5.24 code for all versions. |
|
|
55 | - since various broken or deficient patches float around |
|
|
56 | to work around the vtbl API breakage in perl, let's provide |
|
|
57 | our own workaround, which seems to be much less invasive |
|
|
58 | and more compatible than the approaches seen so far. YMMV. |
|
|
59 | - work around assertion failure in perl_destruct on 5.24 |
|
|
60 | (analyzed by Dave Mitchell). |
|
|
61 | |
|
|
62 | 6.5 Wed Jun 22 22:23:50 CEST 2016 |
|
|
63 | - swap_sv swapping order was not symmetrical, causing |
|
|
64 | wrong swaps when swap_sv was used multiple times on the |
|
|
65 | same sv in the same thread. |
|
|
66 | - swap_sv calls can now be undone by calling it again |
|
|
67 | with the same variables. |
|
|
68 | - swap_sv calls will now be undone in async_pool threads. |
|
|
69 | - split Coro::Semaphore::up/adjust into separate xs functions |
|
|
70 | for better error reporting, at slight codesize increase. |
|
|
71 | - (libcoro) arm assembly support, please test and report. |
|
|
72 | - adjust to PL_savestack changes in perl 5.24 (adapted from |
|
|
73 | the debian patch, which unfortunately gets it wrong). |
|
|
74 | |
|
|
75 | 6.49 Sat Oct 17 01:40:12 CEST 2015 |
|
|
76 | - throwing an exception to a thread waiting in |
|
|
77 | Coro::Handle using Coro::EV did not stop the watchers, |
|
|
78 | causing the next call to fail (testcase by Martin Pritchard). |
|
|
79 | - bump minimum perl version to 5.10. |
|
|
80 | |
|
|
81 | 6.48 Sun Oct 4 19:03:51 CEST 2015 |
|
|
82 | - fix memory leak when Coro::Handle uses Coro::EV internally |
|
|
83 | (testcase by Sten Sten). |
|
|
84 | - update code to libev 4 API (internally, Coro still used the |
|
|
85 | version 3 API calls). |
|
|
86 | - remove unused hv_sig. |
| 9 | |
87 | |
| 10 | 6.47 Sat Jul 11 03:58:20 CEST 2015 |
88 | 6.47 Sat Jul 11 03:58:20 CEST 2015 |
| 11 | - swap_svs - NVs can be in the SV head beginning with 5.20. |
89 | - swap_svs - NVs can be in the SV head beginning with 5.20. |
