1.32 Wed 26 Jan 2022 17:42:30 CET |
| 9 |
- new strategy for reaping children: as local $SIG{CHLD} will |
| 10 |
reset rather than restore signal handlers, we try to reap |
| 11 |
children manually in the fork server. This might cause zombies |
| 12 |
to stay around for a long time in case there is a race and |
| 13 |
no further activity, but perls signal handling is just too |
| 14 |
broken to have other options. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
1.31 Thu Nov 10 17:30:45 CET 2016 |
| 17 |
- new child API function, AnyEvent::Fork::Serve::run_args. |
| 18 |
- put pid first in child names. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
1.3 Thu May 12 18:53:37 CEST 2016 |
| 21 |
- the full path to the perl binary is now being passed as argv[0]. |
| 22 |
- talk a bit about using AnyEvent::Fork itself after a fork. |
| 23 |
- work around perl 5.19 again breaking backwards compatibility. |
| 24 |
- pod fixes. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
1.2 Wed Sep 25 13:05:09 CEST 2013 |
| 27 |
- ->fork would not clone, but erase the arguments in the parent |
| 28 |
(analyzed by Christopher Paulicka). |
| 29 |
- mention AnyEvent::Fork::Remote, and how to be compatible to it |
| 30 |
in the description of the run method. |
| 31 |
- AnyEvent::Fork now sets a child watcher for direct children. |
| 32 |
- clarify that one might need to set a child watcher. |
| 33 |
- explicitly call exit on eof in children, to hide(!) win32 perl |
| 34 |
bugs. at least the test suite doesn't complain anymore, but |
| 35 |
the bug is doubtlessly still there. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
1.1 Sun Apr 28 15:47:38 CEST 2013 |
| 38 |
- (hopefully) remove dependency on common::sense in child code. |
| 39 |
- make dependency on IO::FDPass dynamic in child code. |
| 40 |
- actually open "communications socket" for reading AND writing |
| 41 |
in the child (this does not normally bother syswrite). |
| 42 |
- allow perl path overriding in new_exec. |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
1.0 Sun Apr 21 14:05:33 CEST 2013 |
| 45 |
- implement new_from_fh and to_fh, for easy passing of |
| 46 |
fork objects among processes (EXPERIMENTAL!). |
| 47 |
- sabotage the fork object on run or to_fh. |
| 48 |
- expliticly call exit in child server - not elegant, but |
| 49 |
doesn't disturb any sane perl, and helps broken win32 perls |
| 50 |
to clean up. |
| 51 |
- the write watcher wasn't disabled on write errors. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
0.7 Thu Apr 18 22:16:26 CEST 2013 |
| 54 |
- only set SIGCHLD to IGNORE while serving requests, reset |
| 55 |
it to the previous value after ->run. |
| 56 |
- minor docpatches. |
| 57 |
- mention AnyEvent::Fork::RPC, but not yte AnyEvent::Fork::Pool. |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
0.6 Sun Apr 7 00:41:30 CEST 2013 |
| 60 |
- this release mostly updates the documentation. |
| 61 |
- add fork+exec replacement example to SYNOPSIS. |
| 62 |
- clarify some eval and run documentation. |
| 63 |
- defuse the documentation a bit - split synopsis into |
| 64 |
an example section, and rewor the problem statement. |
| 65 |
|
| 66 |
0.5 Sat Apr 6 05:30:03 CEST 2013 |
| 67 |
- set $SIG{CHLD} to IGNORE in processes forked to avoid |
| 68 |
accumulating zombies. |
| 69 |
- added "typical problems" section. |
| 70 |
- add some unscientific benchmark numbers to indicate relative |
| 71 |
performance. |
| 72 |
- post-benchmark socket writing optimisations :) (fewer syscalls, |
| 73 |
do more than one write per event loop iteration). |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
0.2 Fri Apr 5 21:07:59 CEST 2013 |
| 76 |
- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Fork::Template no longer exports |
| 77 |
anything and has renamed the variable. |
| 78 |
- do not leak the internal watcher as return value from run. |
| 79 |
- set $0 to run function name, tune existing $0 names as well. |
| 80 |
- work around a bug in openbsd file descriptor passing on at least |
| 81 |
4.5 and 4.8. might introduce a security problem on that platform. |
| 82 |
- switch to the new IO::FDPass module, which also fixes a bug |
| 83 |
with setting non-blocking mode and gives other improvements. |
| 84 |
- no longer an XS module. |
| 85 |
|
