Sat Jun 11 00:00:00 UTC 2016 - fwdsbs.to.11df@xoxy.net
- Update to mono 4.4.0.182, new major release v4.4. Short changelog since v4.2:
* Class Libraries now tracking .NET 4.6.1 APIs, folder structure is updated. Support for older APIs via reference assemblies
* WCF: WebHttpBinding must use http scheme in case when SecurityMode == WebHttpSecurityMode.TransportCredentialOnly
* Embedding API: mini_parse_debug_option allows embedders to set debug options programatically, without going through the MONO_DEBUG environment variable.
* Unmanaged Thin Locks: improved performance for locks and thin locks in some cases, decrease in performance for the case of repetitive nesting of a lock
* libmono now defaults to SGen
* FullAOT: Generic Value Type Sharing improvements
* Cooperative Mode for SGen GC by using MONO_ENABLE_COOP environment variable
* Thread Priority Setting: Implement a SetPriority/GetPriority facility for real-time threads
* Other improvements to garbage collector: concurrent capabilities, lock-free GC handles, performance and memory optimizations
* Profiler: annotate GC roots, so the profiler can get better visibility into the nature of objects that keep objects alive
* Threadpool: no longer using the sparse array for the threadpool, as for many thread it would slow down some operations
* Debugger: the soft debugger now allows nested invocations to take place
* PowerPC: the PowerPC backend has been updated to support big endian systems
* C# Compiler: null operator (?.) has been implemented for dynamic expressions
* Named events and semaphores: the support for sharing named events/semaphores etc. between processes (MONO_ENABLE_SHM) has been removed. Use Mono.Posix instead
* Reflection: major upgrade to Reflection APIs for Roslyn support
* Tools updated: csharp, mdoc, mkbundle, xbuild
More information at: http://www.mono-project.com/docs/about-mono/releases/4.4.0

- update 3.12.0
* Major performance and memory consumption improvements on SGen.
* Improve the heuristic of the ThreadPool to maximize efficiency and minimize the number of Threads.
* New cert-sync tool automatically syncs Mono’s certificate store against the OS certificate store on Linux
* X86 code now generate pushless code. This is faster on modern CPUs.
* Multiple fixes in the profiler to make statistical sampling reliable and functional without kernel assisted sampling.
* Mono users no longer need to run mozroots to get SSL working.
* Switched to adaptative hill climbing for sizing the pool.
* The supervisor thread now goes into deep sleep when no new jobs are submitted for a while. This should save power on targets running on batteries.
* Reorganized how major heap blocks are manipulated for increased efficiency of the major collection.
* Reduced memory consumption by better sizing of allocation buckets.
* Switched to a simpler heuristics for major heap sizing that is more stable and avoid unexpected spikes.
* Removed the parallel collector, it was an experimental feature that did not provide an effective speedup. It will be brought back in the future with a functioning design.
* Removed the fixed heap configuration, it was an experimental feature that did not deliver enough of a performance improvement.
* Avoid asserts on shutdown when the appdomain unload callbacks are called on the debugger thread during shutdown. Fixes bxc#24342.
* Fix the calculation of the epilog size for EH info. Fixes bxc#24577.
* Fix a class initialization race which happens if a class initializer initializes a got slot before it finishes running. Fixes bxc#23242.
* Fix OP_LOCALLOC on arm so it correctly adjusts sp with the param area size even if the size is large. Fixes bxc#24221.
* Disable the extension of i8/i16 arguments to i32 on arm64, since the ios calling convention passes them differently than i32. Fixes bxc#22800.
* Use NULLIFY_INS () to nullify instructions and use MONO_INST_NEW to create phi node instructions to avoid asserts in the spill pass. Fixes bxc#24006.
* Rewrite the way direct calls are made between llvm methods. Previously all calls were made to plt entries and the plt entry symbols were aliased to point to the corresponding method if the method was directly callable using the .set assembler directive. This doesn’t seem to work with newer LLVM/CLANG versions, so do this completely on the LLVM side using Value::replaceAllUsesWith (). Fixes bxc#23976.
* Make process handles non-shared. Fixes bxc#23423.
* Fix the return of vtypes containing a single fp member from pinvoke methods on OS X/x86. Fixes bxc#23813.
* Fix an SRE assert. Fixes bxc#19039.
* Implement 5dbf97e66057f8626c53fcea30f1988d6627e5a2 for calls made from NEWOBJ too. Fixes bxc#23557.
* Make each CASTCLASS_CACHE patch unique by generating a unique identifier from the method index and an per-method counter. Fixes bxc#23478.
* Disallow generic classes with explicit layout. Fixes bxc#23438.
* Add an option to make debugger invokes virtual. Part of the fix for #23385.
* Allow renaming of threadpool threads. Fixes bxc#23206.
* Fix the unregistration of our exception handler on Windows. Fixes bxc#23221.
* Make calls from gshared to gsharedvt sharable methods indirect since otherwise at runtime we might find an instantiation and we cannot patch the call, leading to performance problems. Fixes bxc#23021.
* Allow the SIZEOF opcode in gsharedvt code if it doesn’t reference a gsharedvt type. Fixes bxc#22711.
* Fix mono_marshal_free_ccw (). Fixes bxc#22414.
* Fixes DbEnumerator current property to clone read data. Fixes bxc#24452
* Allow sending of text data longer than 4000 characters by using a different column type. Fixes bxc#21172.
* Implement MonoGenericClass:GetCustomAttributes () for created types. Fixes bxc#23769.
* Improved Json deserialization of floating-point numbers. When DataContractJsonSerializer was created from type object, deserialization of floating.point numbers was not possible. Fixes 21583.
* Test Json deserialization of a floating-point number as object. Covers bxc#21583.
* Rss20ItemFormatter.ReadFrom now sets Id when guid is PermaLink. Fixes bxc#23262.
* Uri made from UNIX path and RelativeOrAbsolute is now relative. Fixes bxc#22954.
* UriParseComponents no longer decodes ‘@’ in UserInfo. Fixes bxc#23246.

* Copy out/ref parameters on async call; bxc#22129.
* If not specified assume that array items are nullable. Fixes bxc#19012.
* Added optional serialization based on ShouldSerialize{V}. SerializationCodeGenerator and XmlSerializationWriterInterpreter will no longer serialize an attribute named {V} if its object has a method named ShouldSerialize{V}() that returns false. {V}Specified now is also checked to be true before serializating the attribute even if it is a property that is not settable. Fixes bxc#1852.
* GMT DateTimeOffset is now properly parsed. Fixes bxc#22851. GMT date formats set useutc to true, so now useutc is checked to init DateTimeOffset with a zero offset.
* Improved CalendricalCalculations fixed_from_dmy methods. Fixes bxc#21930. In some cases fixed_from_dmy is used with the month parameter greater than the number of months of that year. Year is now incremented until month parameter is valid.
* Enumerate all subdirectories including the first one. Fixes bxc#22857
* Encode ContentDisposition name. Fixes bxc#18422
* When needed serialized objects are now implicitly converted. Fixes bxc#20403.
* Fix ClientWebSocket.ReceiveAsync() with small buffer; bxc#22704.
* Tokenize dash only in range values. Fixes bxc#22764
* Added time format with only offset. Fixes bxc#22558.
* Added support for UriComponents.SerializationInfoString. Fixes bxc#21571.
* Unify handling of default ctor and zero. Fixes bxc#22591
* Make SendAsync state free to handle recursive calls. Fixes bxc#22724
* Actually fix #22179 to allow concurrent requests.
* DateTime.Parse now handles unlimited number of fractional digits. This change was made because .NET can parse ISO8601 format with an unlimited number of fractional digits. Fixes bxc#22417.
* Added test ISO8601FractionalDigits. Covers #22417.
* Delay reflection hit to actual execution point. Workarounds #22522
* Update RequestMessage.RequestUri.AbsoluteUri after redirect. Fixes bxc#22383
* Catch exceptions thrown by SerialPortStream.Dispose () when called from the finalizer. Fixes bxc#15514
* KeyPairPersistence now tries to fix folder permissions. An exception is no longer thrown if the folder permissions can be fixed. Fixes bug bxc#19274.
* A pointer-type may be used as the type of a volatile field. Fixes bxc#23770
* Correctly identify constant switch section when value match is not section start. Fixes bxc#23475
* Check for true/false user operators on unwrapped nullable type. Fixes bxc#23199
* More tweaks to conditional tokenizer. Fixes bxc#23319
* Populate inherited constraints member cache from types not only base types. Fixes bxc#23017

- Removed upstreamed ppc.patch
- Updated to 3.8.0
+ The JIT now better handle long remainers by powers of two, generating significantly better code.
+ Over 10x faster code is generated for delegates that only invoked once. C# features such as async and LINQ produces a lot of those delegates, so this improvement will impact everyone.
+ Improved alias analysis can now handle second order aliases and eliminate null checks.
+ The runtime now has a concurrently readable hashtable that can makes reflection heavy workloads significantly faster and more scalable.
+ Optimized one of the core data structures of the garbage collector should result in 5 to 10% reduction in collection times.
+ Fix the leaking of mach ports introduced by 98bbf8512aec0fa01b4426583280f6d231d22187. bxc#22068
+ Fix Process.PrivateMemorySize64 etc. on ios. bxc#21882

+ Initialize fields in MonoField:GetFieldOffset () if needed. Fixes part of #21604
+ Properly handle rethrow outside of catch blocks. bxc#20412
+ Disable runtime unit tests on linux, because it cannot be linked due to circular dependencies between libraries. bxc#21520
+ When parsing a method header, ensure we pass any available generic context. bxc#21388
+ Added new mono_domain_set_config function; used to fix ConfigurationErrorsException in bxc#10468
+ Only apply the maverick stack size hack to the main thread. bxc#10096
+ Don’t hardcode the temp dir to /tmp, use g_get_tmp_dir instead. bxc#20894
+ Explicit thread GC data around instead of relying on TLS storage. bxc#20360
+ Make WaitForPendingFinalizers () really wait for the finalizers added by a previous GC. bxc#20503

- Rebased patches and submitted to upstream
- Removed ARM compatibility hacks https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1211
+ mono-arm-cpuinfo-v5.patch
+ mono-arm-cpuinfo-v7.patch
+ mono-arm-vfp.patch
- Update to 3.6.0
+ Runtime performance counters have been integrated into the profiler allowing the performance counter information to be surfaced to profiling tools and in particular Xamarin’s upcoming profiler.
+ The profiler now produces backtraces for statistical mode. The profiler’s tracing mode now works on ARM.
+ The debugger now support line and column ranges. pdb2mdb supports it. Note: the rest of our toolchain still needs to be updated.
+ The debugger now supports changing the current line in the top frame.
+ Lots of bugfixes and performance improvements on the profiler.
+ The debugger now support reading simple properties without calling their getter, this is done by having a lightweight IL interpreter for small pieces of code. This allows more properties to be inspected while the process is completely stopped and without having to temporarily resume execution of the target to execute the property code.
+ Added buffered response mode to improve network efficiency on high latency links such as USB.
+ The GC bridge got a lot of performance work. There are now two new modes that can significantly improve some workloads.
+ Multiple http stack improvements: some leaks in the stack have been fixed, as well as solving some long-standing bugs involving asynchronous operations and proxies. We have introduced a more comprehensive test harness to ensure that those bugs do not surface again.
+ System.IO.Compression is now implemented
+ System.Security.Claims is now implemented. It resides in the System assembly (existed before in the Identity stack, but now we track the new home from the .NET 4.5 API).
+ Reworked locking to drop a hot lock in method lookup.
+ Use fine grained locking instead of a big hot lock.
+ Better hashing of some runtime internal items to avoid some corner-case slowdowns with generics.
+ The profiler is now able to produces backtraces in statistical mode.
+ Added periodical flushing that should help interactive users. This means that the profiling will send data over the profiling even if the application is not currently sending data (this is there to support the upcoming new profiler UI).
+ It now collects and reports performance counter information. See mprof-report’s man page.
+ Fixed the handling of the volatile. CIL prefix.
+ We now distribute IKVM’s ikdasm tool. This is a reliable disassembler that does not have the limitation of monodis of requiring a complete set of assemblies that are compatible to disassemble. This will disassemble even files that do not have their dependencies available.
+ Optimized EqualityComparer for more types.
+ Our msbuild implementation can now build Project K and Roslyn
+ Optimized EqualityComparer for more types.
+ [mcs] Flow analysis of nested binary expressions inside anonymous methods was missing on left/right reset.
+ [mcs] Fix betterness logic for default vs params parameters.
+ [mcs] Flow analysis of binary expressions not using logical operators.

+ [bcl] Fix Process.PrivateMemorySize64 on osx, we now return task_baic_info.resident_size.
+ Clean up the usage of FILETIME structures, avoid accessing them as gint64 since that would lead to alignment problems.
+ [sdb] Avoid stack overflows when a boxed vtype recursively references itself using fields.
+ [profiler] Filter more event types in mprof-report based on time.
+ [profiler] In mprof-report fix handling of the time filter when starting from 0.
+ [http] Convert string output data using BOM header when available.
+ [system.net.http] Fix encoding of Content-MD5. Based on patch by nberardi.
+ [sdb] Avoid placing implicit sequence points at offsets where the IL stack is empty when using symbol file based sequence points.
+ [eglib] Remove test-glib code, we don’t have to maintain compatibility with glib any more.

+ [dlr] Emit correct code for convert of nullable types.
+ [runtime] Fix decoding of jagged arrays in custom attributes.
+ [runtime] Avoid calling mono_thread_current () in sgen_thread_detach (), since it can construct objects.
+ [runtime] Avoid passing commands to lldb using the python api, it doesn’t seem to work well in script files.
+ mdbrebase: use File.Move instead of FileInfo.MoveTo.
+ Add unit test for BNC#497562
+ System.Runtime.MemoryCache.GetValues() throws LockRecursionException with expired items - GetValues() calls MemoryCacheContainer.GetEntry() which now gets an EnterUpgradeableReadLock needed by ExpireIfNeeded() - Added a test case.

- Update to 2.0 (preview 2)
* Runtime: Performance
* The performance of operations on decimals has significally improved.
* The performance of locking (Monitor.Enter/Monitor.Exit) is significally improved.
* The memory usage of the runtime is reduced, especially when using generics.
* Many race conditions and threading problems were fixed, improving reliability.
* Math.Min/Math.Max and some forms of Interlocked.CompareExhange (CAS) are now implemented using fast inline code on x86/amd64.
* There is now a MONO_DEBUG=dont-free-domains option that improves the performance of ASP.NET-based applications.
* Runtime: Features
* Some progress has been made on the Winx64 port [Bill Holmes, Jonathan Chambers]
* The runtime is now built using the dolt libtool replacement (http://dolt.freedesktop.org/) this speeds up runtime compilations by about 30%.
* The runtime build process is now less verbose on some platforms, similar to the way the linux kernel is built. To turn it off, use the --enable-quiet-build=no argument to configure, or pass the V=1 argument to make.
* There is now a --debug=casts command line option to the runtime which turns on the reporting of better InvalidCastException message details.
* The mono_method_get_unmanaged_thunk () function has been implemented for developers embedding Mono which simplifies calling managed methods from unmanaged code.
* C# Compiler
* The compiler now support expression trees (turning expressions into an AST at compile time when the type of a parameter is a System.Query.Expression). This completes the C# 3.0 support.
* Over 60 reported bugs in the compiler were fixed and many of the internals have been cleaned up. Extensive refactoring and hardening of the C# 2.0 and 3.0 support are now better integrated.
* A major rewrite of the anonymous method/lambda support in the internals of the compiler now optimizes the resulting code, and fixes several bugs in this area.
* The compiler is now dual licensed under the MIT X11 and the GNU GPL version 2 (only).
* The compiler now supports #pragma checksum for use with ASP.NET debugging and #line hidden, as well as flagging more compiler-generated code properly (to avoid the debugger single-stepping into those bits).
* LINQ
* LINQ and LINQ to XML are now complete, support for expression trees is now available as well as the backend to support expression tree compilation.
* LINQ to Dataset has also been implemented.
* Performance Counters Implementation
* Mono now has a performance counters implementation that can be used to monitor various statistics of Mono processes. To access this API you use the System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter classes.
* Big Arrays
* Mono now supports 64-bit indexed arrays on 64-bit systems. Although this is permitted by the ECMA standard, this today is a unique feature of Mono as .NET on Windows does not support 64-bit array indexes. This code was developed by Luis Ortiz at Interactive Supercomputing and integrated by Rodrigo Kumpera.
* This feature is useful for developers that needs to manipulate very large data sets with C# arrays.
