Module-Generic-v1.6.2

Changes for version v1.6.2 - 2026-07-06

  • Bug fixes
    • Fixed Module::Generic::SharedMem op() to update the stored semaphore identifier when a new semaphore is created after a failed semop() call, preventing subsequent locking operations from continuing to use the now-invalid identifier.
    • Fixed Module::Generic::SharedMem exists() to no longer remove the semaphore set after reading the existence marker. The method is now a pure read; removal is the responsibility of remove().
  • Tests
    • Fixed t/02.num.t locale-specific assertions to derive expected values from localeconv() at runtime rather than hardcoding them, avoiding false failures on platforms such as OpenBSD where a locale name is accepted but provides minimal formatting data.
    • Fixed t/02.num.t fr_FR subtest to match the locale name as a prefix rather than an exact string, and corrected the skip count from 4 to 5.
    • Added diagnostics to t/12.sharedmem.t to report the actual type and read error when the shared memory data check fails, to assist diagnosis on platforms with partial SysV IPC support.
