Ecore will now load "system modules" on ecore_init(). The "systemd"
module will use DBus to monitor localed, hostnamed and timedated and
add system events related to those changes.
I don't really like this patch. I think it would be nicer to have mmap
been correctly detected when Evil or Exotic is there, but at this point
I don't feel at ease with configure.ac.
That work clearly was possible thanks to Leandro. If you want more information
go to his blog : http://tia.mat.br/posts/async_io_with_coroutines/ .
The main difference with his implementation is more portable and not thread safe.
It does not have a custom swapcontext (would make sense as we don't need to save
the sigcontext) so it will be less fast. If people are ready to contribute asm
patch for that purpose I will be happy to apply them.
As for portability this code should work on all architecture we already support
thanks to a nice hack with setjmp/longjmp borowed from libcoroutine. We do use
Fiber for Windows support, but as 1.8 is completely borken in that regard, this
is theorical work only.
Thinks left to do :
- Eoify the API
- Documentation
- More tests
- Add support for coroutine in fd handler
- Add coroutine support to ecore_thread api
- Write some example
