384 GC_thread_is_registered API function.
386 2005-02-17 Raja R Harinath <rharinath@novell.com>

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

430 2004-08-17 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
432 * pthread_support.c: make __thread variable static
434 * include/gc_local_alloc.c: make the other headers get
435 included before we define our own variable. This fixes
436 up an ordering problem with GCJ and thread local alloc.
438 The problem was that gc.h needed to include gc_local_alloc.h
439 before gc_gcj.h. However, when gc.h was included after
440 GC_LOCAL_ALLOC_H was #defined, it would not include
443 2004-08-16 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>

448 2004-07-27 John Merryweather Cooper <john_m_cooper@yahoo.com>

462 Thu Jun 24 15:39:00 CEST 2004 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

466 2004-06-18 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
468 * darwin_stop_world.c: Make the world actually stop. This seems
469 to fix the finalizer thread signalling deadlock in 58706.
471 Sat Jun 5 19:38:20 CEST 2004 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
473 * alloc.c: temporary fix for bug #59557.

484 latest upstream version.
486 2004-05-20 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
488 * libgc.patch: Removed. There's no need to have this in a
489 separate file, just use CVS.
491 2004-05-20 Jackson Harper <jackson@ximian.com>
493 * Makefile.am: Remove tests from EXTRA_DIST.
495 Wed May 19 18:57:30 CEST 2004 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
497 * darwin_stop_world.c: deal with threads that die before they can be
498 suspended (should solce the thread_info failed aborts).
500 Wed May 19 18:42:23 CEST 2004 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
502 * configure.in, Makefile.am: update correctly from the libgc sources:
503 this excludes linux_threads.c from the build: Martin will have to port
504 his changes to the new code, since linux_threads.c doesn't exist
505 anymore in the upstream sources.
507 2004-05-19 Raja R Harinath <rharinath@novell.com>
509 * configure.in ($enable_embed_check): New internal option that
510 will be passed by mono's configure.
511 (THREADS): Use $with_libgc_threads, which is passed by mono's
514 2004-05-18 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
516 Importing Boehm GC 6.3 alpha 6.
518 2004-03-24 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
520 * gcj_mlc.c: Do finalization.
522 This is a patch from Hans Boehm that fixes a bug where
523 GC_gcj_malloc never does finalization.
526 http://www.hpl.hp.com/hosted/linux/mail-archives/gc/2004-March/000359.html
527 http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=55644
531 I am checking this in at Zoltan's request.
533 2003-11-07 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
535 * autogen.sh: Fix previous patch and silence noisy GNU which.
537 * autogen.sh: Applied patch from Peter Teichman (peter@ximian.com).
538 Use 'glibtool' instead of 'libtool' on OSX.
540 2003-10-01 Pedro Martínez Juliá <yoro@wanadoo.es>
542 * Makefile.am: Change lib_LTLIBRARIES to noinst_LTLIBRARIES because
543 of libmonogc is included inside libmono and without this change it
544 breaks down and not include it.
546 2003-09-26 Zoltan Varga <vargaz@freemail.hu>
548 * mips_sgi_mach_dep.S: Remove since it is a duplicate of .s and it
549 breaks cvs checkout under windows.
551 Wed Sep 17 17:29:11 CEST 2003 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
553 * configure.in: disable ALL_INTERIOR_POINTERS: managed pointers
554 are not allowed in the heap, so this should be safe and it helps
555 reducing false positives.
557 2003-08-28 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
560 * aix_irix_threads.c: Applied bug fix from alpha libgc
562 2003-08-26 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>

568 * include/gc.h: Fixed compiler warnings.
570 2003-06-09 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
572 * include/libgc-mono-debugger.h: New header file. This is
573 installed as <mono/private/libgc-mono-debugger.h>, but it's a
574 private header files and may only be used by the Mono Debugger.
576 * Makefile.am: Build libmonogc.la and install it. For some
577 reason, using a libtool convenience archive doesn't work here.
579 2003-06-08 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
581 * libgc-mono.pc.in: Removed.
583 * Makefile.am: Don't install anything.
585 * configure.in: We're now embedded in mono and can't be built as a
586 stand-alone module any longer.
588 2003-05-17 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
590 * libgc.patch, libgc.log: Added patch against the original version
591 and a ChangeLog entry.
593 2003-05-17 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
595 * misc.c, os_dep.c, include/private/gc_priv.h: Back to the
598 * linux_threads.c: Use the `gc_thread_vtable' internally in this
599 file instead of calling it from the header files.
601 2003-05-16 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
603 * include/gc.h (GCThreadFunctions): Removed the `pthread_*'
604 function since we don't need them here.
606 * include/gc_pthread_redirects.h: Put back the original version.
608 2003-04-08 Alp Toker <alp@atoker.com>
610 * configure.in: fix automake 1.6 compatibility without breaking
611 previous versions (AM_PROG_AS)
613 2003-03-31 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
615 * include/gc.h (GCThreadFunctions): New type.
616 (gc_thread_vtable): New global variable.
618 * include/gc_pthread_redirects.h: Use the `gc_thread_vtable'
619 vtable for the redirects instead of calling the methods directly.
620 This allows us to override them at runtime.
622 2003-03-31 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
624 * include/Makefile.am: Install gc_pthread_redirects.h.
626 * include/gc.h: `#include <gc/gc_pthread_redirects.h>', not
627 `#include "gc_pthread_redirects.h"'.
629 2003-03-31 Martin Baulig <martin@ximian.com>
631 * configure.in: Call the package `libgc-mono'.
633 * libgc-mono.pc.in: Added pkg-config files.
