The loop span through its body regardless of whether there was anything
to do -- ~10% of a desktop core for an empty shard, ~70% of a small VPS
core, and a process that never idles is exactly what burstable vCPU
plans throttle.
The loop now blocks in NetState.WaitForCompletion whenever every queue
it drains is empty, waking on the next timer tick or the moment work
arrives. Receive completions, new connections, and cross-thread
LoopContext.Post (via IORingGroup 1.0.10's sticky Wake) are all in the
wait set, so sleeping adds no latency to any of them; only timer-driven
logic sees wheel lag, bounded by server.eventLoopIdleWaitMs (default
2ms, 0 = never sleep).
Measured on a real world of 190k items / 33k mobiles: 10.4% of a core
to 0.8-1.0%, with peak tick lag unchanged. Spin mode independently
gained 7x the iterations per core from the ring's AcceptEx rework.
Sleeping also gives the GC natural pause points, which the old spin
loop denied it -- memory no longer climbs until a save forces a
collection.
A sleep is bounded by the next wheel turn, so a correctly honoured
sleep can never miss a deadline; the only way sleeping harms the wheel
is the host returning the wait late. That overshoot is measured on
every sleep, and an escalating backoff (server.lateWakeThreshold)
suspends sleeping when it persists -- server work like saves or heavy
commands cannot trip it by construction. Hosts without high-resolution
waits are detected once at startup and spin instead. The admin gump
shows the verdict instead of the now-meaningless CPS figure, which is
removed.
Time accounting for diagnosis is compiled out of normal builds: build
with -p:EventLoopProfiling=true to enable EventLoopProfiler (per-phase
wall time, sleep overshoot, GC pauses, stolen-time residual, ~15min
ring buffer) and the [LoopStats command with CSV dump. See
dev-docs/debugging-event-loop.md for the diagnosis funnel.

### Summary
* Bumps to .NET 9 with updated dependencies
* Comparing a value type against null is no longer allowed
* CI/CD now uses the version specified in global.json
* Serialization generator updated to .NET 9 with bug fixes, fixes to turkish language, and parallelization
### Summary
- Works around a sneaky edge case bug in the JIT with stackalloc where sometimes the buffer is not zero'd.
- Fixes SendDisplayBoatHS
- Fixes sending health bars in the `SendEverything()` logic.
- Fixes a bug in sizing for some string helper functions.
### Developer Note
We are enabled `SkipLocalsInit` - do not rely on `stackalloc` to be zero'd. To zero the buffer, use `span.Clear();`
Closes#1606
## BREAKING CHANGE
**Publishing for linux will no longer include runtimes**
## Major Changes
* Adds .NET 7 support.
* Adds ARM64 support (experimental).
* Changes linux support to be open-ended against anything .NET 7 supports.
* Fixes native library resolutions. (Make sure to install `dev` versions of the libraries)
* Updates README
* Adds Ubuntu 22, CentOS 8/9 Stream to CI/CD.
## TODOs:
* Update modernuo.com docs
Closes#1173Closes#1159
**Only one functional change**
* Fixes a bug in LogFactory where `Warning` is being logged as `Information`
Non-functional changes:
* Updates/Fixes copyright headers
* Removes namespace scopes for core files.
View with [whitespace off](https://github.com/modernuo/ModernUO/pull/1187/files?w=1).
* Adds `SerializationProperty` - This will generate the private variable for serialization. Also provides an option `useField` to specify your own. Example:
```cs
[SerializationProperty(0, useField: nameof(_resource)]
```
- [X] Replace serialization generator with nuget
- [X] Replace schema migration with dotnet bool
- [X] Add ability to run migrations in VS/Rider using a project build
* Fixes an issue with moving directories across volumes
* Removes usages of WebClient
* Removes usages of Cryptographic Providers
Note: Even though .NET 6 introduces Xoshiro RNG, there is no way to control the seed. I'll do some reconciliation of Xoshiro so it functions closer to the built in one. For the most part, it has parity though.
Benchmarks show there is nothing odd about the implementations, they are within 1ns of each other.
* Now reads Prof.txt to get the professions
* The templated professions are based on profession `TrueName`
* Adds missing starting equipment
* Implements gargish starting equipment
* Consolidates some of the code
* Moves TC stuff to the TC file.
* Fixes some starting equipment that was wrong.
Note:
* Implementing the original T2A professions is possible on the client side, but requires moving the old clilocs to the current clilocs file. In the current file the entries are blank.
* Using the original LBR professions (they match AOS but without necromancy/chivalry) is kind of confusing because the profession indexes are ripped out of the UOTD/UOR ones and have non-sequential indexes. This will probably cause confusion and people will get no templated items when they select the wrong profession.
**Note for Rider users** Code generation only works with Rider v2021.1+. For Rider 2021.1.x you must set a global msbuild attribute so that the IDE can recognize generated code after building. JetBrains claims this will be fixed in Rider 2021.2.

**Note for VS 2019+ users**: Code generation requires completely cleaning your solution, doing a full build, closing VS 2019, and then opening the solution. This is a known issue and there are no plans to fix this multiple restart requirement for VS 2022 at this time.
