146.57 Wed Jul 29 15:08:44 CEST 2020
15 - override AnyEvent condvar methods "properly", as AnyEvent
16 has support for pluggable condvars since 2011. This also
17 avoids problems with recursive waits by avoiding to mix
18 impl methods with coro code.
19 - allow rouse_wait to be called in a different thread.
20 - slightly clarify rouse_cb/rouse_wait documentation.
21 - slightly improve rouse callback performance and memory usage.
22 - try to report correct calller when throwing exception in
23 on $condvar->recv, not a useless line in Coro::AnyEvent.
24
256.56 Thu Feb 20 19:40:07 CET 2020
26 - Coro::EV::time*once functions used ev_once, which is not cancelable.
27 This could cause problems due to I/O watchers not being stopped up
28 on exceptions/cancellation.
29
306.55 Fri Jul 19 17:28:09 CEST 2019
31 - Coro::RWLock woke up only one reader instead of all after a wrlock
32 (analyzed and patch by Maxim Skorobogatov).
33 - slightly improved documentation of Coro::RWLock and RWLock testcase.
34 - quickly (re)-ported to minix 3.3 before minix crashed again.
35
366.54 Sun Dec 16 11:06:07 CET 2018
37 - reinstate Coro::Select::select prototype - it breaks more than it fixes.
38
396.53 Sun Dec 16 10:33:15 CET 2018
40 - the autogenerated prototypes of Coro::AIO now add ";" at the end
41 to avoid generating named unary operators and messing up parsing
42 (mostly affects aio_mlockall 4 | 8 which was parsed as
43 (aio_mlockall 4) | 8).
44 - do not use a prototype for select in Coro::Select, as CORE::select also
45 doesn't have one.
46
476.52 Tue Aug 14 18:49:43 CEST 2018
48 - libcoro update: allow sharing of coro threads using the pthreads
49 backend among different pthreads, as is required by Coro::Multicore.
50 - always allow ->call and ->eval when the coro is the current coroutine. this
51 makes it possible, among other things, to call these on $Coro::main.
52 - minor code cleanups.
53
546.514 Thu Aug 31 18:25:31 CEST 2017
55 - safe_cancel no longer croaks when called on already-destroyed
56 thread, but instead "just works".
57
586.513 Sat Jul 15 01:18:51 CEST 2017
59 - experimental 5.22 comaptibility changes (PadlistNAMES).
60 - removed attributes example and made sure the other examples
61 still work.
62 - fix some statevar types for newer perls, should be of no consequence.
63
646.512 Fri Jul 14 05:03:17 CEST 2017
65 - seems to pass test suite down till 5.8.9, so make this the
66 minimum requirement in Makefile.PL.
67 - experimental 5.24 compatibility changes (SUB_ARGARRAY).
68 - experimental 5.26 compatibility changes (PL_comppad -> PADOFFSET).
69 - disable FORTIFY_SOURCE to avoid broken (but well-intentioned)
70 fortified longjmp variants in some libcs.
71 - re-try JIT allocation without PROT_EXEC, to hopefully improve
72 portability (still doesn't seem to work around broken selinux
73 mmap everywhere).
74 - speling fixes (Xavier Guimard).
75
766.511 Sun Jun 26 23:44:50 CEST 2016
77 - make it compile with threaded perls again.
78 - simplify and speed up __DIE__ and __WARN__ handling.
79
806.51 Sat Jun 25 20:57:20 CEST 2016
81 - 6.5 release didn't compile on most older perls due to
82 a logic error enabling experimental 5.24 code for all versions.
83 - since various broken or deficient patches float around
84 to work around the vtbl API breakage in perl, let's provide
85 our own workaround, which seems to be much less invasive
86 and more compatible than the approaches seen so far. YMMV.
87 - work around assertion failure in perl_destruct on 5.24
88 (analyzed by Dave Mitchell).
89
906.5 Wed Jun 22 22:23:50 CEST 2016
91 - swap_sv swapping order was not symmetrical, causing
92 wrong swaps when swap_sv was used multiple times on the
93 same sv in the same thread.
94 - swap_sv calls can now be undone by calling it again
95 with the same variables.
96 - swap_sv calls will now be undone in async_pool threads.
97 - split Coro::Semaphore::up/adjust into separate xs functions
98 for better error reporting, at slight codesize increase.
99 - (libcoro) arm assembly support, please test and report.
100 - adjust to PL_savestack changes in perl 5.24 (adapted from
101 the debian patch, which unfortunately gets it wrong).
102
1036.49 Sat Oct 17 01:40:12 CEST 2015
104 - throwing an exception to a thread waiting in
105 Coro::Handle using Coro::EV did not stop the watchers,
106 causing the next call to fail (testcase by Martin Pritchard).
107 - bump minimum perl version to 5.10.
108
1096.48 Sun Oct 4 19:03:51 CEST 2015
110 - fix memory leak when Coro::Handle uses Coro::EV internally
111 (testcase by Sten Sten).
112 - update code to libev 4 API (internally, Coro still used the
113 version 3 API calls).
114 - remove unused hv_sig.
115
1166.47 Sat Jul 11 03:58:20 CEST 2015
117 - swap_svs - NVs can be in the SV head beginning with 5.20.
118
1196.46 Tue Jun 30 14:36:30 CEST 2015
120 - restore portability to perls with windows fork emulation
121 (patch by Petr Písař).
122
1236.45 Tue Jun 30 01:40:08 CEST 2015
124 - restore portability to perl 5.16 and below.
125
1266.44 Tue Jun 30 00:41:54 CEST 2015
127 - avoid segfaulting (or worse) when tracing a canceled thread.
128 - the Event module silently broke it's public hook API, causing
129 failures on perls compiled with -Duselongdouble. Requiring
130 the latest version of Event because I don't know which release
131 changed this (it's not mentioned in the ChangeLog).
132 - allow xs level enterleave hooks via CoroAPI.
133
1346.43 Thu Jun 4 15:38:14 CEST 2015
135 - use stability canary.
136 - port to stableperl-5.22.0-1.001.
137 - update libecb.
138
1396.42 Wed Feb 11 20:29:52 CET 2015
140 - Coro::SemaphoreSet->try did not actually work (analyzed by
141 SATO Kentaro).
142 - upgrade libecb to be C11 compliant.
143
1446.41 Sat Sep 6 22:08:46 CEST 2014
145 - restore portability to perl 5.8.x.
146 - give new Coro's a valid GvHV(PL_hintgv) - this is slow and takes
147 up some memory, but fixes "use feature" and similar modules
148 when used inside a Coro.
149 - allow zero as argument to Coro::Channel to mean the same thing
150 as no argument. this works with older versions as well,
151 but wasn't legal until now.
152 - slightly better c header file detection.
153
1546.39 Mon Jun 2 00:00:08 CEST 2014
155 - work around more incompatible changes in 5.20.
156
1576.38 Sun Jun 1 21:54:23 CEST 2014
158 - check that perl slots actually have enough space to hold
159 interpreter variables.
160 - untested port to perl 5.19 (64 bit tmps indices) (reported
161 by Andreas König).
162 - croak when cancel is called without a thread context.
163
1646.37 Tue Mar 4 13:27:33 CET 2014
165 - *sigh*, removed leftover debugging code from debugging a
166 perl bug, of all things.
167
1686.36 Tue Mar 4 07:11:59 CET 2014
169 - semaphores would not clear the destroy hook when interrupted
170 by ->throw, causing segfaults or worse.
171 - ->throw on a thread waiting for a semaphore did not acquire
172 the semaphore, but also didn't wake up other waiters,
173 possibly causing a deadlock.
174 - "FATAL: $Coro::IDLE blocked itself" will now use Carp::confess
175 to report a full stacktrace, which should help find out
176 where the actual call is.
177 - "atomically" destroy data in slf_destroy, because it is
178 the right thing to do, just in case.
179 - disable ecb.h libm dependency, to compile on ancient systems
180 or under adverse conditions.
181
1826.33 Mon Nov 18 11:26:27 CET 2013
183 - do not crash when freeing padlists with holes (in 5.18).
184 - tentative SVt_BIND 5.19 port/fix.
185
1866.32 Tue Nov 5 15:35:35 CET 2013
187 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old
188 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl (reported
189 by Darin McBride).
190
1916.31 Thu May 9 07:39:48 CEST 2013
192 - Coro::AIO requests would crash if the thread was ready'd
193 while the request was ongoing.
194
1956.29 Wed May 8 02:55:18 CEST 2013
196 - when an on_destroy handler destructs the coro currently being
197 destructed a perl scalar could be accessed after being freed,
198 likely causing a crash.
199
2006.28 Wed Mar 6 06:58:02 CET 2013
201 - clean remnants of existing __DIE__ and __WARN__ handlers so
202 they lose their magic and will not cause segfaults later
203 (testcase by Andrey Sagulin).
204 - improved Coro::State documentation a bit.
205 - Coro::Debug::command now flushes the output.
206 - add hack detection code for x32 abi, because the braindead slugs
207 who designed that made it look exactly like x86_64 without
208 providing proper compile time symbols to test for it. as a result,
209 this detection cannot work reliably.
210 - valgrind stack registering was broken.
211 - do not rely on Time::HiRes anymore in Coro::Debug.
212
2136.23 Fri Dec 7 23:36:37 CET 2012
214 - use experimental fiber implementation on native windows
215 perls.
216 - use sizeof (void *) as multiplication factor for stack sizes,
217 to accomodate the totally braindamaged microsoft 64 bit "os".
218 - changed verifier host from win2k-ap510-32 to win7-sp516-32/64.
219 activeperl 5.16 crashes when PerlIO_define_layer is called due
220 to some bug in the perl dll, strawberry perl at least passes
221 the testsuite.
222 - implement Coro::Handle->peeraddr/host/port, for slightly
223 improved compatibility with LWP.
224 - implement 5.17 compatibility by almost blindly applying a
225 good-looking patch by Father Chrysostomos.
226 - move stack management functions into libcoro 3.
227 - libcoro version 3 "released".
228 - support magic values as timed_io_once args.
229 - recommend AnyEvent 7+ or EV 4+, also require EV
230 version 4 or newer for Coro::EV.
231
2326.10 Tue Oct 9 01:14:27 CEST 2012
233 - updated ecb.h, it had a typo that caused it to not compile on many
234 big endian systems (reported by many people).
235 - disable memory fences in ecb.h to improve portability.
236
2376.09 Sat Oct 6 23:25:02 CEST 2012
238 - Coro::EV I/O watchers were not interruptible by exceptions
239 (Coro::State::throw) (testcase by sten).
240 - ->throw now puts threads into the ready queue, as this seems to
241 be expected by existing code, and code that doesn't cope with spurious
242 wakeups needs fixing anyway.
243 - use fd -1 in mmap.
244 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
245 - warn about broken so-called "hardened" kernels.
246
2476.08 Fri Apr 13 12:05:47 CEST 2012
248 - be more aggressive about exiting like perl does - formerly,
249 exiting from the non-main thread would not execute END blocks.
250
2516.07 Fri Nov 11 21:21:48 CET 2011
252 - work around a bug in PerlIO (setting $SIG{__WARN__} to a PVCV).
253 - update ecb.h.
254
2556.06 Mon Aug 8 23:59:48 CEST 2011
256 - cygwin unfortunately patches the stack at runtime, so we use the pthreads
257 backend, which is an order of magnitude slower. unfortunately, cygwins
258 pthread implementation isn't very complete either, so allocate the stack
259 twice just to be sure.
260 (note: cygwin also enables mymalloc, which is NOT THREADSAFE ON WINDOWS,
261 in its ithreaded perl - best recompile cygwin and use the 'w'indows
262 backend for much better performance. also disable ithreads for
263 even better performance...).
264
2656.05 Thu Aug 4 21:36:36 CEST 2011
266 - blush, condvar values would not be propagated from send to recv anymore
267 (reported by Chip Salzenberg).
268 - use exponential increase for the readline buffer length in
269 Coro::Handle. also reduce initial allocation to 1020 from 4096 bytes.
270
2716.04 Wed Aug 3 17:15:45 CEST 2011
272 - use even more efficient and more compatible condvars for
273 compatibility to AnyEvent 6.x :)
274 - more inconsequential ecb.h updates.
275
2766.03 Wed Aug 3 11:41:30 CEST 2011
277 - change how Coro patches AnyEvent condvars for compatibility to
278 AnyEvent 6.x.
279 - update ecb.h, to no longer include <pthread.h> in case WinNT.h
280 hasn't been included.
281
2826.02 Wed Jul 13 04:35:19 CEST 2011
283 - "improve portability to Gentoo" - gentoo manages to put perl variables
284 in memory areas that are farther than 2gb apart, which the jit couldn't
285 handle and barfed. now it's just a bit slower on gentoo and similar
286 systems.
287
2886.01 Sun Jul 3 12:31:14 CEST 2011
289 - workarounds are good, but the test for whether pthreads are used
290 was not good. this one should be better.
291 - check differently whether gcc generates cfi instructions itself.
292
2936.0 Wed Jun 29 19:43:35 CEST 2011
294 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: unreferenced coro objects will now be
295 destroyed and cleaned up automatically (e.g. async { schedule }).
296 - implement a JIT compiler for part of the thread switch code,
297 which gives a 50% speed improvement on threaded perls, and
298 about 4% on non-threaded perls (so threaded perls now finally
299 reach about half the speed of non-threaded perls).
300 - slightly modernise Coro::Intro, add section about rouse functions.
301 - avoid DEFSV and ERRSV, giving another 10% improvement
302 in thread switching.
303 - Coro::State->is_destroyed is now called is_zombie.
304 - implement a Coro->safe_cancel method that might fail, but
305 cancels in a "safer" way if it succeeds.
306 - add preliminary support for DEBUGGING perls.
307 - get rid of two hash-accesses when initialising a new Coro - this
308 speeds up coro creation by almost a factor of two.
309 - croak when a coro that is being cancelled tries to block
310 (e.g. while executing a guard block), instead of crashing or
311 deadlocking.
312 - use a more robust and also faster method to identify Coro::State
313 objects - speeds up everything a bit.
314 - implement Coro->cancel in XS for a 20% speed improvement, and to
315 be able to implement mutual cancellation.
316 - speed up context switches by a percent or two by more efficiently
317 allocating context stack entries.
318 - implement Coro->join and Coro->on_destroy in XS for a speedup and
319 a reduction in memory use.
320 - cancelling a coro while it itself is cancelling another coro is
321 now supported and working, instead of triggering an assertion.
322 - be a bit more crash-resistant when calling (buggy) on_destroy
323 callbacks (best effort).
324 - move on_destroy into the slf_frame, to allow extension slf
325 functions to have destructors.
326 - get rid if coro refcounting - simply crash in other interpreter
327 threads by nulling the pointers on clone.
328 - simplify warn/die hook handling when loading Coro - the convoluted
329 logic seems to be no longer neccessary.
330 - use libecb instead of our own home-grown gcc hacks.
331 - document alternatives to Coro::LWP. Please use them :)
332 - work around another mindless idiotic NEEDLESS bug in openbsd/mirbsds
333 sigaltstack. Really. wine suffers from it, erlang suffers from it,
334 and it's known since at least 2006.
335
3365.372 Wed Feb 23 06:14:30 CET 2011
337 - apparently mingw doesn't provide a working gettimeofday, try to
338 work around that by relying on Time::HiRes (indirectly brought to
339 my attention by Max Maischein).
340 - fix some portability issues when Time::HiRes was used.
341
3425.371 Mon Feb 21 14:36:08 CET 2011
343 - backport to windows process emulation code again.
344
3455.37 Sat Feb 19 07:49:44 CET 2011
346 - add a big "Coro thread life cycle" section to "man Coro".
347 - try a tentative workaround against the breakage that 5.13 has
348 introduced without depreciation period. sigh.
349 - no longer use Time::HiRes if gettimeofday is available, which
350 saves quite a lot of memory.
351
3525.36 Sun Feb 13 05:33:41 CET 2011
353 - automatically load Coro::Channel, Coro::RWLock, Coro::Semaphore,
354 Coro::SemaphoreSet, Coro::Signal and Coro::Specific on first "new"
355 method call.
356 - undocument Coro::Timer::sleep and obsolete whole module.
357 - optimise Coro::Timer::timeout memory and cpu usage.
358 - slightly updated Coro::Intro for recent changes.
359 - do not initialise PL_dirty anymore.
360
3615.25 Thu Nov 11 01:08:39 CET 2010
362 - try a different approach on netbsd - netbsd 5 finally has marginally
363 working pthreads, but still broken ucontext/sigaltstack.
364 - openbsd 4.8 finally got their act together, Coro works out of the box
365 with asm, setjmp and pthreads (no change, just informational).
366
3675.24 Sat Oct 23 11:27:12 CEST 2010
368 - port to the EV 4.0 API.
369 - work around bugs in mingw32, making strawberry perl work
370 out of the box.
371 - correctly modify Coro::AIO function prototypes
372 so that they reflect the "no optional parameters" rule.
373 - "ported" libcoro to C++.
374
3755.23 Mon May 17 18:50:42 CEST 2010
376 - be more resistant to ordering changes when initialising
377 Coro::AnyEvent, Coro::EV and Coro::Event (reported by Matthias
378 Waldorf).
379 - document that perl 5.12 deliberately removed support for cloning.
380
3815.22 Wed Apr 14 03:55:35 CEST 2010
382 - correctly return udnef on errors in Coro::Handle::read/write
383 (testcase by Marc Mims).
384 - convert Coro::Util into a "perl compatibility wrapper" - the functions
385 are less useful now, but are drop-in replacements for existing
386 functions, listing better alternatives in the documentation. This also
387 fixes a bug in Coro::LWP which naively substituted Socket::inet_aton
388 with Coro::Util::inet_aton.
389 - do not override $Coro::idle unconditionally in Coro.pm, as other
390 modules could have provided their own idle coro already
391 (for exmaple, Coro::AnyEvent).
392 - fix Coro::Util::gethost* functions.
393 - Coro::Timer corretcly exports it's symbols (reported by Hideki Yamamura).
394
3955.21 Wed Dec 16 07:19:51 CET 2009
396 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent when AnyEvent and Coro are used
397 together.
398 - add some examples on how to combine other event loops with Coro in
399 Coro::AnyEvent, and how to run it (and not to block). Seems to be
400 the most common source of confusion.
401 - try to catch people naively blocking in an event callback.
402 - work around the perl filehandle bug issue in conjunction with
403 older common::sense (as indirectly pointed out by ZSystem).
404 - clarify the "not from signal handlers" section.
405
4065.2 Sun Oct 4 14:54:24 CEST 2009
407 - Coro::Storable destroyed the prototypes of the functions it wrapped.
408 - export rouse_cb and rouse_wait by default now.
409 - fix various prototype mismatches in Coro::AnyEvent and Coro::Handle.
410 - new method $state->swap_sv.
411 - added section on "windows process emulation" to the manpage,
412 after a not-so-fruitful (nor-friendly) "discussion" with chip
413 salzenberg (discussion implies arguments, but his only arguments
414 were ad-hominems, one wonders why he started it in the first
415 place). I hope this explains it well enough for him to understand,
416 and maybe well enough for others to understand.
417 - use common::sense everywhere now.
418 - idle callbacks are no longer supported, use idle coros instead.
419 - print a thread listing when a deadlock is detected.
420
4215.17 Sat Aug 22 23:09:31 CEST 2009
422 - work around a bug in the perl debugger causing crashes
423 when running under the debugger by marking _pool_handler as nodebug.
11 - speed up Coro::async considerably. 424 - speed up Coro::async considerably.
425 - try some hacks to get netbsd to work "more often" - their broken
426 setjmp/longjmp, ucontext *and* phtreads are really hard on Coro.
427 - convert Coro to AE 5.0 API.
12 428
135.162 Tue Jul 28 04:04:03 CEST 2009 4295.162 Tue Jul 28 04:04:03 CEST 2009
14 - perl 5.8.2 is now minimum requirement. 430 - perl 5.8.2 is now minimum requirement.
15 - skip t/19_handle.t on broken windows perls. 431 - skip t/19_handle.t on broken windows perls.
16 432
… …
241 - ->throw is now supported on Coro::State objects. 657 - ->throw is now supported on Coro::State objects.
242 - clean up cctx creation code a bit. 658 - clean up cctx creation code a bit.
