The updates to asyncSequence were not explicitly mentioned in the provided context. However, there were several updates related to concurrency and async functions in Swift, which might be relevant:

  1. Memory Allocation for Async Functions:

    • Async functions allocate memory differently compared to sync functions. Instead of using a large contiguous stack, async tasks hold onto one or more slabs of memory. When an async function needs memory, it asks the task for it, and the task tries to satisfy the request from the current slab (Explore Swift performance).
  2. Concurrency and Data Race Safety:

    • Swift 6 introduces complete data race protection, ensuring that concurrency is handled safely. This includes improvements to data race checking and the introduction of new low-level primitives like atomics and mutexes (What’s new in Swift).
  3. Concurrency Features in Swift Testing:

    • Swift testing now supports parallel testing by default, and async conditions can be handled using the same concurrency features as in production code. This includes using await to suspend tests, allowing other test code to keep the CPU busy while work is pending (Go further with Swift Testing).

For more detailed information on concurrency and async features in Swift, you might want to check out the sessions "Explore Swift performance," "What’s new in Swift," and "Go further with Swift Testing."

Go further with Swift Testing

Go further with Swift Testing

Learn how to write a sweet set of (test) suites using Swift Testing’s baked-in features. Discover how to take the building blocks further and use them to help expand tests to cover more scenarios, organize your tests across different suites, and optimize your tests to run in parallel.

What’s new in Swift

What’s new in Swift

Join us for an update on Swift. We’ll briefly go through a history of Swift over the past decade, and show you how the community has grown through workgroups, expanded the package ecosystem, and increased platform support. We’ll introduce you to a new language mode that achieves data-race safety by default, and a language subset that lets you run Swift on highly constrained systems. We’ll also explore some language updates including noncopyable types, typed throws, and improved C++ interoperability.

A Swift Tour: Explore Swift’s features and design

Learn the essential features and design philosophy of the Swift programming language. We’ll explore how to model data, handle errors, use protocols, write concurrent code, and more while building up a Swift package that has a library, an HTTP server, and a command line client. Whether you’re just beginning your Swift journey or have been with us from the start, this talk will help you get the most out of the language.
