0.5.0

CHANGES:

This release includes:

• Bug fix for parallel_for_reduce on empty loops.
• Make Chan.t and Task.promise injective #69
• Add lockfree dependency #70
• CI fixes (#73, #76)
• Breaking change: Rename num_additional_domains to num_domains for setup_pool
• Documentation updates (#80, #81, #82)

Domainslib 0.4.2

• Includes Effect.eff -> Effect.t change from OCaml trunk. (#65)

Domainslib 0.4.1

This release fixes compatibility with OCaml 5.00.0+trunk in #61. Breaks compatibility with older Multicore variants 4.12.0+domains and 4.12.0+domains+effects.

Domainslib 0.4.0

This release includes:

• Usage of effect handlers for task creation. This introduces a breaking change; all computations need to be enclosed in a Task.run function. See #51.
• Multi_channel uses a per-channel domain-local key, removing the global key. #50
• Bug fixes in parallel_scan. #60

Domainslib 0.3.2

Corresponding updates for breaking changes introduced in ocaml-multicore/ocaml-multicore#704

• Updated with the new interface Domain.cpu_relax
• Domain.timer_ticks replaced with Mirage clock.

Domainslib 0.3.1

• #45 adds support for named pools. This is a breaking change with setup_pool taking an optional name parameter and an extra unit parameter.
• A minor bug fix in parallel_for_reduce.

Domainslib 0.3.0

This release includes:

• A breaking change for Task pools where the num_domains argument has been renamed num_additional_domains to clear up potential confusion; see #31.
• A new work-stealing scheduler for Task pools using domain local Chase Lev deques #29; this can improve performance significantly for some workloads.
• A removal of closure allocation in Chan #28.
• A move to using the Mutex & Condition modules for the implementation of Chan #24.
• Various documentation and packaging improvements (#21, #27, #30, #32).

Domainslib 0.2.2

Updates to:

• parallel_for to use new task distribution algorithm and allow default chunk_size (#16)
• parallel_for_reduce to use new task distribution algorithm and allow default chunk_size parameter (#18)

Domainslib 0.2.1

• recv_poll made non-allocating
• Addition of parallel_scan #5
