57 root 1.26 * 2008-04-24 Reinstate CORO_LOSER (had wrong stack adjustments).
58 root 1.28 * 2008-10-30 Support assembly method on x86 with and without frame pointer.
59 root 1.29 * 2008-11-03 Use a global asm statement for CORO_ASM, idea by pippijn.

64     * coro_create now allows one to create source coro_contexts.
65 root 1.33 * do not rely on makecontext passing a void * correctly.
66     * try harder to get _setjmp/_longjmp.
67     * major code cleanup/restructuring.

69 root 1.39 * 2008-11-16 work around a freebsd pthread bug.
70 root 1.40 * 2008-11-19 define coro_*jmp symbols for easier porting.
71 root 1.41 * 2009-06-23 tentative win32-backend support for mingw32 (Yasuhiro Matsumoto).
72 root 1.44 * 2010-12-03 tentative support for uclibc (which lacks all sorts of things).

76 root 1.49 * 2011-07-03 rely on __GCC_HAVE_DWARF2_CFI_ASM for cfi detection.
77 root 1.50 * 2011-08-08 cygwin trashes stacks, use pthreads with double stack on cygwin.
78 root 1.51 * 2012-12-04 reduce misprediction penalty for x86/amd64 assembly switcher.
79     * 2012-12-05 experimental fiber backend (allocates stack twice).

81 root 1.54 * 2012-12-21 valgrind stack registering was broken.

84     * enable guard pages on arm, aarch64 and mips.
85 root 1.57 * 2016-08-27 try to disable _FORTIFY_SOURCE with CORO_SJLJ, as it

98 root 1.2 /*
99     * This library consists of only three files
100 root 1.9 * coro.h, coro.c and LICENSE (and optionally README)
101 root 1.2 *
102     * It implements what is known as coroutines, in a hopefully
103 root 1.52 * portable way.
104     *
105     * All compiletime symbols must be defined both when including coro.h
106     * (using libcoro) as well as when compiling coro.c (the implementation).
107     *
108     * You can manually specify which flavour you want. If you don't define
109     * any of these, libcoro tries to choose a safe and fast default:
110 root 1.2 *
111     * -DCORO_UCONTEXT
112     *
113     * This flavour uses SUSv2's get/set/swap/makecontext functions that
114 root 1.52 * unfortunately only some unices support, and is quite slow.
115 root 1.2 *
116     * -DCORO_SJLJ
117     *
118 root 1.13 * This flavour uses SUSv2's setjmp/longjmp and sigaltstack functions to
119 root 1.2 * do it's job. Coroutine creation is much slower than UCONTEXT, but
120 root 1.52 * context switching is a bit cheaper. It should work on almost all unices.
121 root 1.3 *
122     * -DCORO_LINUX
123     *
124 root 1.52 * CORO_SJLJ variant.
125 root 1.24 * Old GNU/Linux systems (<= glibc-2.1) only work with this implementation
126     * (it is very fast and therefore recommended over other methods, but
127     * doesn't work with anything newer).
128 root 1.2 *
129 root 1.11 * -DCORO_LOSER
130 root 1.2 *
131 root 1.52 * CORO_SJLJ variant.
132 root 1.2 * Microsoft's highly proprietary platform doesn't support sigaltstack, and
133 root 1.52 * this selects a suitable workaround for this platform. It might not work
134     * with your compiler though - it has only been tested with MSVC 6.
135 root 1.2 *
136 root 1.51 * -DCORO_FIBER
137     *
138 root 1.52 * Slower, but probably more portable variant for the Microsoft operating
139     * system, using fibers. Ignores the passed stack and allocates it internally.
140     * Also, due to bugs in cygwin, this does not work with cygwin.
141 root 1.51 *
142 root 1.5 * -DCORO_IRIX
143     *
144 root 1.52 * CORO_SJLJ variant.
145     * For SGI's version of Microsoft's NT ;)
146 root 1.5 *
147 root 1.22 * -DCORO_ASM
148     *
149 root 1.52 * Hand coded assembly, known to work only on a few architectures/ABI:
150 root 1.55 * GCC + arm7/x86/IA32/amd64/x86_64 + GNU/Linux and a few BSDs. Fastest
151     * choice, if it works.
152 root 1.22 *
153 root 1.25 * -DCORO_PTHREAD
154     *
155     * Use the pthread API. You have to provide <pthread.h> and -lpthread.
156 root 1.39 * This is likely the slowest backend, and it also does not support fork(),
157     * so avoid it at all costs.
158 root 1.25 *
159 root 1.2 * If you define neither of these symbols, coro.h will try to autodetect
160 root 1.52 * the best/safest model. To help with the autodetection, you should check
161     * (e.g. using autoconf) and define the following symbols: HAVE_UCONTEXT_H
162     * / HAVE_SETJMP_H / HAVE_SIGALTSTACK.
