+=item A thread exited while %d other threads were still running
+
+(W) When using threaded Perl, a thread (not necessarily the main
+thread) exited while there were still other threads running.
+Usually it's a good idea to first collect the return values of the
+created threads by joining them, and only then exit from then main
+thread. See L<threads>.
+
=item accept() on closed socket %s
(W closed) You tried to do an accept on a closed socket. Did you forget
functioning as a class, but that package doesn't define that particular
method, nor does any of its base classes. See L<perlobj>.
+=item Can't locate PerlIO%s
+
+(F) You tried to use in open() a PerlIO layer that does not exist,
+e.g. open(FH, ">:nosuchlayer", "somefile").
+
=item (perhaps you forgot to load "%s"?)
(F) This is an educated guess made in conjunction with the message
is because you don't have read permission for a file which you named on
the command line.
+=item Can't open a reference
+
+(W io) You tried to open a scalar reference for reading or writing,
+using the 3-arg open() syntax :
+
+ open FH, '>', $ref;
+
+but your version of perl is compiled without perlio, and this form of
+open is not supported.
+
=item Can't open bidirectional pipe
(W pipe) You tried to say C<open(CMD, "|cmd|")>, which is not supported.
If you actually want to pack Unicode codepoints, use the C<"U"> format
instead.
-=item Cleanup skipped %d active threads
-
-(W) When using threaded Perl, the main thread exited while there were
-still other threads running. This is not a good sign: you should
-either explicitly join the threads, or somehow be certain that all
-the non-main threads have finished. See L<threads>.
-
=item close() on unopened filehandle %s
(W unopened) You tried to close a filehandle that was never opened.
that it is simpler or backtracks less. (See L<perlfaq2> for information
on I<Mastering Regular Expressions>.)
+=item cond_broadcast() called on unlocked variable
+
+(W threads) Within a thread-enabled program, you tried to call
+cond_broadcast() on a variable which wasn't locked. The cond_broadcast()
+function is used to wake up another thread that is waiting in a
+cond_wait(). To ensure that the signal isn't sent before the other thread
+has a chance to enter the wait, it is usual for the signaling thread to
+first wait for a lock on variable. This lock attempt will only succeed
+after the other thread has entered cond_wait() and thus relinquished the
+lock.
+
+
+=item cond_signal() called on unlocked variable
+
+(W threads) Within a thread-enabled program, you tried to call
+cond_signal() on a variable which wasn't locked. The cond_signal()
+function is used to wake up another thread that is waiting in a
+cond_wait(). To ensure that the signal isn't sent before the other thread
+has a chance to enter the wait, it is usual for the signaling thread to
+first wait for a lock on variable. This lock attempt will only succeed
+after the other thread has entered cond_wait() and thus relinquished the
+lock.
+
=item connect() on closed socket %s
(W closed) You tried to do a connect on a closed socket. Did you forget
=item Constant subroutine %s redefined
-(S|W redefine) You redefined a subroutine which had previously been
+(S) You redefined a subroutine which had previously been
eligible for inlining. See L<perlsub/"Constant Functions"> for
commentary and workarounds.
=item Exiting format via %s
-(W exiting) You are exiting an eval by unconventional means, such as a
+(W exiting) You are exiting a format by unconventional means, such as a
goto, or a loop control statement.
=item Exiting pseudo-block via %s
=item perlio: argument list not closed for layer "%s"
-(S) When pushing a layer with arguments onto the Perl I/O system you forgot
-the ) that closes the argument list. (Layers take care of transforming
+(W layer) When pushing a layer with arguments onto the Perl I/O system you
+forgot the ) that closes the argument list. (Layers take care of transforming
data between external and internal representations.) Perl stopped parsing
the layer list at this point and did not attempt to push this layer.
If your program didn't explicitly request the failing operation, it may be
the result of the value of the environment variable PERLIO.
-=item perlio: invalid separator character %s in attribute list
+=item perlio: invalid separator character %s in layer specification list %s
-(S) When pushing layers onto the Perl I/O system, something other than a
+(W layer) When pushing layers onto the Perl I/O system, something other than a
colon or whitespace was seen between the elements of a layer list.
If the previous attribute had a parenthesised parameter list, perhaps that
list was terminated too soon.
=item perlio: unknown layer "%s"
-(S) An attempt was made to push an unknown layer onto the Perl I/O
+(W layer) An attempt was made to push an unknown layer onto the Perl I/O
system. (Layers take care of transforming data between external and
internal representations.) Note that some layers, such as C<mmap>,
are not supported in all environments. If your program didn't
target of the change to
%ENV which produced the warning.
+=item thread failed to start: %s
+
+(F) The entry point function of threads->create() failed for some reason.
+
=item times not implemented
(F) Your version of the C library apparently doesn't do times(). I
(F) There are no byte-swapping functions for a machine with this byte
order.
-=item Unknown discipline '%s'
-
-(F) You specified an unknown I/O discipline. See L<open> for valid
-filehandle disciplines and L<perlfunc/opendir> for valid directory
-handle disciplines.
-
=item Unknown "re" subpragma '%s' (known ones are: %s)
You tried to use an unknown subpragma of the "re" pragma.
(F) The second argument of 3-argument open() is not among the list
of valid modes: C<< < >>, C<< > >>, C<<< >> >>>, C<< +< >>,
-C<< +> >>, C<<< +>> >>>, C<-|>, C<|->.
+C<< +> >>, C<<< +>> >>>, C<-|>, C<|->, C<< <& >>, C<< >& >>.
=item Unknown process %x sent message to prime_env_iter: %s
