Release 2.22.0

- [FEATURE] Extensible HTTP Priorities (HTTP/3 only).

Release 2.20.0

- [FEATURE] QUIC and HTTP/3 Internet Draft 30 support.

- [BUGFIX] Do not send MAX_STREAM_DATA frames on crypto streams.
- [BUGFIX] Fail with CRYPTO_BUFFER_EXCEEDED when too much CRYPTO

DCID change.
- [BUGFIX] Check that max value of max_streams_uni and
max_streams_bidi TPs is 2^60.
- [BUGFIX] Close IETF mini conn immediately if crypto session
cannot be initialized.
- Deprecate ID-28 (no browser uses it): it's no longer in the
default versions list.
- New programs duck_server and duck_client that implement the
experimental siduck-00 protocol. They quack!
- IETF crypto streams: don't limit ourselves from sending.
- Command-line programs: turn off QL loss bits if -G is used, as
Wireshark cannot decrypt QUIC packets when this extension is used.
- Turn all h3 framing unit tests back on.
- Fix malo initialization when compiled in no-pool mode.

# 7d09751d 10-Jan-2020 Dmitri Tikhonov <dtikhonov@litespeedtech.com>

Release 2.8.7

UDP payload, not QUIC packet.

ACK frames.
- IETF QUIC: use RTT estimate in ack timeout calculation.
- IETF handshake: abort conn when unexpected errors occur.
- Use PING rather than MAX_DATA frames to elicit ACKs from peer.

Latest changes

- [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone. The stream no
longer opens files and deals with file descriptors. (Among other
things, this makes the code more portable.) Three writing functions
are provided:

lsquic_stream_write
lsquic_stream_writev
lsquic_stream_writef (NEW)

lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function
pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement.
This is the most flexible way. lsquic_stream_write() and
lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around
lsquic_stream_writef().

- [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the
on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer,
bypassing auxiliary data structures. This reduces amount of memory
required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited
by the congestion window.

To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N
outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to
by any stream. One half of these are reserved for the highest
priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams. This way,
low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams
and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send
their packets out.

The algorithm is as follows:

- When user writes to stream outside of the callback:
- If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the
reserved N/2 queue or fail.
(The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) --
rather than N/2, allowing high-priority streams to write as
much as can be sent.)
- If the stream is not the highest priority, try to place the
data onto the reserved N/2 queue or fail.
- When tick occurs *and* more packets can be scheduled:
- Transfer packets from the high N/2 queue to the scheduled
queue.
- If more scheduling is allowed:
- Call on_write callbacks for highest-priority streams,
placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue.
- If more scheduling is allowed:
- Transfer packets from the low N/2 queue to the scheduled
queue.
- If more scheduling is allowed:
- Call on_write callbacks for non-highest-priority streams,
placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue

The number N is currently 20, but it could be varied based on
resource usage.

- If stream is created due to incoming headers, make headers readable
from on_new.

- Outgoing packets are no longer marked non-writeable to prevent placing
more than one STREAM frame from the same stream into a single packet.
This property is maintained via code flow and an explicit check.
Packets for stream data are allocated using a special function.

- STREAM frame elision is cheaper, as we only perform it if a reset
stream has outgoing packets referencing it.

- lsquic_packet_out_t is smaller, as stream_rec elements are now
inside a union.
