Hello!
This is some patches I wrote over the years for supporting Mono. I'm running a pretty big ASP.NET WebForms website under Mono and uWSGI (with theese patches) over several years, and this was all the work I had to do to make it purr like a kitten.
Theese are mostly threading and signaling issues fixing. Mono is quite invasive in how it operates, so taking care of it is tricky. I hope this won't break anything else.
One notable change is that because of how Mono operates (suspending on signals - and in turn suspending the polls), the polling mechanism was broken, with the poll() API call returning EINTR - so I had to wrap it into uwsgi_poll() to handle the EINTR and keep polling.
Another change was the dynamic loading of the uwsgi.dll into the target application without the need to put that uwsgi.dll into the GAC.
Finally, because of some changes in recent Mono versions (starting with the 6.0 I think), we need to link against stdc++ for it to work. Refer to: mono/mono#19628, pythonnet/pythonnet#939 (comment)
This is now working with Mono 6.12 without too much troubles. I hope I didn't break anything else.
