395 Wed Feb 16 22:30:54 CET 2005 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
397 * alloc.c: tune the code to collect instead of expanding
398 the heap if there are many finalizers and we reclaimed some
399 memory from cleaning the finalization queue (should fix
400 bug #71001 and #70701).
402 2005-02-07 Geoff Norton <gnorton@customerdna.com>
404 * include/private/gc_priv.h: Bump the max root sets to 1024
406 Mon Jan 24 16:39:42 CET 2005 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

435 2004-08-17 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
437 * pthread_support.c: make __thread variable static
439 * include/gc_local_alloc.c: make the other headers get
440 included before we define our own variable. This fixes
441 up an ordering problem with GCJ and thread local alloc.
443 The problem was that gc.h needed to include gc_local_alloc.h
444 before gc_gcj.h. However, when gc.h was included after
445 GC_LOCAL_ALLOC_H was #defined, it would not include
448 2004-08-16 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
450 * Makefile.am: Create a static version of libmonogc for inclusion into
453 2004-07-27 John Merryweather Cooper <john_m_cooper@yahoo.com>

467 Thu Jun 24 15:39:00 CEST 2004 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
469 * alloc.c: use Hans' fix for bug #59557.
471 2004-06-18 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
473 * darwin_stop_world.c: Make the world actually stop. This seems
474 to fix the finalizer thread signalling deadlock in 58706.
476 Sat Jun 5 19:38:20 CEST 2004 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
478 * alloc.c: temporary fix for bug #59557.

489 latest upstream version.
491 2004-05-20 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
493 * libgc.patch: Removed. There's no need to have this in a
494 separate file, just use CVS.
496 2004-05-20 Jackson Harper <jackson@ximian.com>
498 * Makefile.am: Remove tests from EXTRA_DIST.
500 Wed May 19 18:57:30 CEST 2004 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
502 * darwin_stop_world.c: deal with threads that die before they can be
503 suspended (should solce the thread_info failed aborts).
505 Wed May 19 18:42:23 CEST 2004 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
507 * configure.in, Makefile.am: update correctly from the libgc sources:
508 this excludes linux_threads.c from the build: Martin will have to port
509 his changes to the new code, since linux_threads.c doesn't exist
510 anymore in the upstream sources.
512 2004-05-19 Raja R Harinath <rharinath@novell.com>
514 * configure.in ($enable_embed_check): New internal option that
515 will be passed by mono's configure.
516 (THREADS): Use $with_libgc_threads, which is passed by mono's
519 2004-05-18 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
521 Importing Boehm GC 6.3 alpha 6.
523 2004-03-24 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
525 * gcj_mlc.c: Do finalization.
527 This is a patch from Hans Boehm that fixes a bug where
528 GC_gcj_malloc never does finalization.
531 http://www.hpl.hp.com/hosted/linux/mail-archives/gc/2004-March/000359.html
532 http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=55644
536 I am checking this in at Zoltan's request.
538 2003-11-07 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
540 * autogen.sh: Fix previous patch and silence noisy GNU which.
542 * autogen.sh: Applied patch from Peter Teichman (peter@ximian.com).
543 Use 'glibtool' instead of 'libtool' on OSX.
545 2003-10-01 Pedro Martínez Juliá <yoro@wanadoo.es>
547 * Makefile.am: Change lib_LTLIBRARIES to noinst_LTLIBRARIES because
548 of libmonogc is included inside libmono and without this change it
549 breaks down and not include it.
551 2003-09-26 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
553 * mips_sgi_mach_dep.S: Remove since it is a duplicate of .s and it
554 breaks cvs checkout under windows.
556 Wed Sep 17 17:29:11 CEST 2003 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
558 * configure.in: disable ALL_INTERIOR_POINTERS: managed pointers
559 are not allowed in the heap, so this should be safe and it helps
560 reducing false positives.
562 2003-08-28 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
565 * aix_irix_threads.c: Applied bug fix from alpha libgc
567 2003-08-26 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

573 * include/gc.h: Fixed compiler warnings.
575 2003-06-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
577 * include/libgc-mono-debugger.h: New header file. This is
578 installed as <mono/private/libgc-mono-debugger.h>, but it's a
579 private header files and may only be used by the Mono Debugger.
581 * Makefile.am: Build libmonogc.la and install it. For some
582 reason, using a libtool convenience archive doesn't work here.
584 2003-06-08 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
586 * libgc-mono.pc.in: Removed.
588 * Makefile.am: Don't install anything.
590 * configure.in: We're now embedded in mono and can't be built as a
591 stand-alone module any longer.
593 2003-05-17 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
595 * libgc.patch, libgc.log: Added patch against the original version
596 and a ChangeLog entry.
598 2003-05-17 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
600 * misc.c, os_dep.c, include/private/gc_priv.h: Back to the
603 * linux_threads.c: Use the `gc_thread_vtable' internally in this
604 file instead of calling it from the header files.
606 2003-05-16 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
608 * include/gc.h (GCThreadFunctions): Removed the `pthread_*'
609 function since we don't need them here.
611 * include/gc_pthread_redirects.h: Put back the original version.
613 2003-04-08 Alp Toker <alp@atoker.com>
615 * configure.in: fix automake 1.6 compatibility without breaking
616 previous versions (AM_PROG_AS)
618 2003-03-31 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
620 * include/gc.h (GCThreadFunctions): New type.
621 (gc_thread_vtable): New global variable.
623 * include/gc_pthread_redirects.h: Use the `gc_thread_vtable'
624 vtable for the redirects instead of calling the methods directly.
625 This allows us to override them at runtime.
627 2003-03-31 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
629 * include/Makefile.am: Install gc_pthread_redirects.h.
631 * include/gc.h: `#include <gc/gc_pthread_redirects.h>', not
632 `#include "gc_pthread_redirects.h"'.
634 2003-03-31 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
636 * configure.in: Call the package `libgc-mono'.
638 * libgc-mono.pc.in: Added pkg-config files.
