It no longer works now 560 that we use loss chains. 561 - [PORTABILITY] Fix build on Alpine Linux. 562 - [PORTABILITY] Fix build using XCode. 563 - Client initial DCID length: use RAND_bytes() instead of rand(3). 564 - Add unit tests for connection min heap. 565 - [DEBUG] Log CID in gQUIC handshake module 566 - [DEBUG] Turn on extra checks for IETF client send controller. 567 - [DEBUG] Dedup next advisory tick messages when reason is IDLE timer. 568 - [DEBUG] QPACK decoder handler: log header error code. 569 5702019-12-05 571 - 2.7.1 572 - [BUGFIX] client: don't call ignore_init() in middle of batch send. 573 ignore_init() makes an assumption that the send controller has access 574 to all outgoing packets. This change wraps a few IETF full connection 575 methods to delay calling ignore_init() until the engine returns all 576 outgoing packets that were batched. 577 - [BUGFIX] set errno to EAGAIN if sendmmsg() can't send all of them. 578 This needs to be done because the value of errno may be lost on 579 some platforms. 580 - [BUGFIX] Typo that set all bits in sm_qflags lead to crashes. 581 - [BUGFIX] Do not cancel header block processing after failure, as 582 QPACK releases the reference in that case. 583 - [CLEANUP] IETF encrypt: replace assert(0) with a warning. 584 - Several small improvements to the test server. 585 5862019-11-27 587 - 2.7.0 588 - [API, FEATURE] Close connection immediately when ea_packets_out() 589 fails with errno != EAGAIN. The API change is that errno is now 590 examined. Make sure to set it if using something other than 591 sendmsg() to send packets. 592 - [CLEANUP] Immediate close logic in IETF full conn. 593 - [CLEANUP] Fix bogus warning about uninitialized `pair' variable. 594 5952019-11-22 596 - 2.6.7 597 - [FEATURE] Implement the QL extension (offered by default). 598 - [BUGFIX] Abort when encountering unexpected HTTP/3 frames. 599 - [BUGFIX] Acknowledge (QPACK) HTTP/3 trailers correctly. 600 - [DEBUG] Turn on debug message for next advisory tick. 601 6022019-11-20 603 - 2.6.6 604 - [BUGFIX] Using HTTP/3 to HTTP/1.x converter. 605 - [BUGFIX] Truncate log messages instead of throwing them away. 606 6072019-11-15 608 - 2.6.5 609 - [BUGFIX] High priority buffered packet queue length. 610 - [BUGFIX] Rain time calculation: max_ack_delay is in milliseconds. 611 6122019-11-12 613 - 2.6.3 614 - [BUGFIX] Close DATA frames with empty payload correctly. 615 6162019-11-11 617 - 2.6.2 618 - [BUGFIX] SCID!=ODCID rule applies to Retry packets, not regular 619 packets. 620 - [BUGFIX] Zero-RTT: BoringSSL no longer flips read/write secrets. 621 - [BUGFIX] Truncate ACK frame rather instead of aborting IETF 622 connection. 623 - [BUGFIX] Client: don't send duplicate reset tokens. 624 - [BUGFIX] Remove invalid assertion in H3 framing code. 625 - Silence a warning in send ctl by restructuring switch() statement. 626 6272019-11-08 628 - 2.6.1 629 - [BUGFIX] set retry token on all resubmitted packets. 630 - Event log: log sent packet flags. In particular, this allows one 631 to see whether token was sent. 632 - Don't migrate client if es_allow_migration is false. 633 6342019-11-07 635 - 2.6.0 636 - [FEATURE] QUIC and HTTP/3 Internet Draft 24 support 637 6382019-11-07 639 - 2.5.2 640 - [BUGFIX] argument order to gQUIC client constructor. Regression 641 introduced in 2.5.0. 642 - [BUGFIX] split buffered packet error recovery: destroy the correct 643 packet. 644 6452019-11-04 646 - 2.5.1 647 - [BUGFIX] Fix double-free when emptying a packet number space. 648 - [BUGFIX] http_server: fix md5sum handler: handle EOF correctly. 649 - [BUGFIX] Use random values in bits 4 and 5 of the first byte of 650 verneg packets (regression introduced in 2.5.0). 651 - [OPTIMIZATION] Don't compile in expensive attq checks by default. 652 - [OPTIMIZATION] http_server: compile regexes only once. 653 6542019-10-31 655 - 2.5.0 656 - [API] lsquic_engine_connect() can now be passed QUIC version to use. 657 - [OPTIMIZATION] Queue opportunistic ACKs if there is data to be sent. 658 - [BUGFIX] Don't evict streams from priority iterator if there is 659 only one queue. 660 - [OPTIMIZATION, BUGFIX] Several other optimizations and bug fixes. 661 - Use ls-qpack v0.10.7. 662 6632019-10-24 664 - 2.4.10 665 - [BUGFIX] IETF QUIC server: fix uninitialized variable use. 666 - [BUGFIX] make sure TLSv1.3 is not disabled in SSL object. 667 - [BUGFIX] Use issuer name and serial number to cache certs (SKID 668 values are not unique). 669 - [BUGFIX] Always set the idle alarm in IETF connection so that it 670 can time out. 671 - Use ls-qpack v0.10.6, as it silences some warnings. 672 6732019-10-21 674 - 2.4.8 675 - [OPTIMIZATION, BUGFIX] Use ls-qpack v0.10.5. 676 6772019-10-15 678 - 2.4.7 679 - Add echo client and server to the distibution. 680 - Add MD5 client and server to the distibution. 681 - Fix http_client: check command-line arguments better, prevent crash. 682 - Fix IETF conn: can_write_ack() should only care about APP PNS. 683 - Client: delay stream creation until handshake succeds. 684 - Reset HTTP stream whose write end is closed prematurely. 685 - Fix tickable(): mirror behavior of tick() wrt buffered packets. 686 - Log reason why engine is tickable. 687 6882019-10-11 689 - 2.4.6 690 - Minor code cleanup and logging improvements. 691 - Server and client programs: include library version (e.g. 2.4.6) 692 into `server' and `user-agent' headers. 693 6942019-10-08 695 - 2.4.5 696 - [OPTIMIZATION]: flush encoder stream only when necessary. 697 - [BUGFIX] Use ls-qpack v0.10.2 for new API -- and for a bug fix. 698 - [BUGFIX] Typo in IETF conn SETTINGS writer. 699 - Use latest BoringSSL. 700 7012019-10-08 702 - 2.4.4 703 - [API] Add lsquic_alpn2ver() to aid parsing Alt-Svc header. 704 - [BUGFIX] NULL dereference when H3 frame header would be split. 705 - [BUGFIX] Do not close fixed-size H3 frame prematurely. 706 - [BUGFIX] Allow PING frames in IETF mini conn. 707 - [BUGFIX] Mini conns: don't send any packets after receiving 708 CONNECTION_CLOSE. 709 - [BUGFIX] Client migration: reserve slot for DCID from transport params. 710 - [BUGFIX] Allow max_early_data_size=0 -- early_data might not be there. 711 - [BUGFIX] Use an invalid stream number to reset BPT cache (zero is now a 712 valid stream number). 713 - [SPEC] Use FINAL_SIZE_ERROR when FIN mismatch is detected. 714 - [OPTIMIZATION] Closed connection only gets one chance to send packets. 715 - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers stream before packetizing stream data. 716 - [OPTIMIZATION] process QPACK encoder STREAM frames immediately. 717 - Update ls-qpack to v0.10.1. 718 7192019-09-30 720 - 2.4.3 721 - Add GQUIC versions to the list of h3 ALPNs for Alt-Svc header. 722 For example, h3-Q043. Chrome will switch to using this format at 723 some point in the future. 724 - [BUGFIX] Send correct value in max_streams_uni transport param 725 - [SPEC] Abort IETF QUIC connection if max_early_data_size is not set 726 to 0xFFFFFFFF 727 7282019-09-23 729 - 2.4.2 730 - [BUGFIX] H3 framing: fix zero-byte write when space is available 731 - [BUGFIX] Don't send STREAM frame when incoming unidirectgional stream 732 is closed 733 - [BUGFIX] Cancel all pending writes by stream reset by a GOAWAY 734 - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free in IETF full conn 735 - [OPTIMIZATION] Wait for session tickets for two seconds and then drop 736 SSL object and crypto streams. 737 7382019-09-18 739 - 2.4.0 740 - [FEATURE] QUIC and HTTP/3 Internet Draft 23 support 741 7422019-09-13 743 - 2.3.1 744 - [BUGFIX] Fix memory leaks 745 - [BUGFIX] Fix unit tests 746 7472019-09-12 748 - 2.3.0 749 - [FEATURE] BBR congestion control is on by default 750 - [BUGFIX] BBR app-limited logic 751 - [BUGFIX] Fix uninitialized warnings in IETF 752 - [BUGFIX] Update ls-qpack to v0.9.14 753 - [CLEANUP] Code cleanup 754 7552019-09-11 756 - 2.2.0 757 - [FEATURE] Server code is included in the library 758 - [FEATURE] IETF QUIC and HTTP/3 Support (ID-22) 759 7602019-05-13 761 - 1.21.2 762 - [OPTIMIZATION] HPACK: use history to improve compression performance 763 7642019-05-06 765 - 1.21.1 766 - [BUGFIX] If FIN or RST not received, don't delay stream destruction. 767 - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up HPACK encoder by using same hash value to 768 search static and dynamic tables. 769 7702019-04-12 771 - 1.21.0 772 - [FEATURE] Add qlog log module. 773 7742019-04-01 775 - 1.20.0 776 - [FEATURE] Add support for Q046. 777 7782019-03-19 779 - 1.19.6 780 - [BUGFIX] Ensure that Largest Observed does not decrease in ACKs we 781 send. ACK frames placed in packets in buffered queues (optimization 782 introduced in 1.17.15) can be preceded by an ACK frame generated later. 783 In this case, the older ACK frame should not be sent out, as Chromium- 784 based servers flags decrease in the ACK frame's Largest Observed value 785 as an error. 786 7872019-03-05 788 - 1.19.5 789 - [BUGFIX] Use correct public key from PUBS based on KEXS index. 790 - [BUGFIX] Check flags before dispatching writes, avoiding assert. 791 - [BUGFIX] Set :scheme to "https" (instead of "HTTP"). 792 7932019-02-25 794 - 1.19.4 795 - [BUGFIX] Check buffer bounds when looking up version in 0-RTT blob. 796 - [BUGFIX] http_client: don't fetch 0-rtt info if handshake failed. 797 - Log number of pacer calls at DEBUG, rather than NOTICE, level. 798 7992019-02-18 800 - 1.19.3 801 - [BUGFIX] Q044: don't encode packet number in 6 bytes. Six-byte 802 packet number encoding does not exist in Q044. This fixes a 803 regression introduced in '[BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain 804 ACK frames' -- we need to keep QUIC version in mind when selecting 805 the longest possible packet number encoding used for the buffered 806 packet that carries the ACK. 807 - [BUGFIX] Do not increase CWND when timeout occurs. 808 - http_client: support setting handshake timeout on command line. 809 Use -o handshake_to=timeout. 810 - http_client: use -k to connect UDP socket to pick up ICMP errors. 811 - http_client: allow pathless mode, when only handshake is performed 812 without issuing any requests. This can be done by simply not 813 specifying a -p flag on the command line. 814 8152019-02-11 816 - 1.19.2 817 - [BUGFIX] Begin negotiation with version provided in 0-RTT info. 818 - [BUGFIX] Version checking in zero_rtt deserialize function. 819 8202019-02-04 821 - 1.19.1 822 - [BUGFIX] Fix Windows build. 823 8242019-02-04 825 - 1.19.0 826 - [FEATURE, API Change] 0-RTT support. Add function to export 0-RTT 827 information; it can be supplied to a subsequent connect() call. 828 - [FEATURE] Add -0 flag to http_client to exercise 0-RTT support. 829 - [BUGFIX] Resuscitate the Windows build. 830 - [BUGFIX] Send HTTP settings (max header list size) if necessary. 831 - [BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain ACK frames. 832 - [BUGFIX] Make packet writeable once all STREAM frames are elided. 833 - [BUGFIX] Fix potential null dereference when realloc fails. 834 - cmake: simplify build configuration. 835 8362019-01-28 837 - 1.18.0 838 - [API Change] Can specify clock granularity in engine settings. 839 - [BUGFIX] Pacer uses fixed clock granularity. Since the change on 840 2018-04-09, it is not necessary to try to approximate the next tick 841 time in the pacer: it can use fix clock granularity specified by 842 the user. 843 - [BUGFIX] Do not tick constantly before handshake is done. 844 - [BUGFIX] Do not exit tick prematurely: reuse packet with ACK. Even 845 if we cannot allocate *more* packets, we could still be able to write 846 to one already allocated. 847 - [BUGFIX] Do not schedule pacer if there are no lost packets. 848 8492019-01-17 850 - 1.17.15 851 - [BUGFIX] http_client: make sure only one read per on_read() callback 852 is performed in the header conversion bypass (-B) mode. 853 - http_client: with -E, assign random priority when stream is created. 854 - [OPTIMIZATION] On immediate write, place an ACK frame into the first 855 buffered packet if an ACK is queued. This reduces the number of 856 standalone ACK packets. 857 - [OPTIMIZATION] Allow placing more than one STREAM frame from the same 858 stream into an outgoing packet. This change minimizes the number of 859 buffered packets required to store several small HTTP messages by 860 virtue of allowing more than one STREAM frame from HEADERS stream in 861 the same packet. 862 - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers when writing to buffered packets. This 863 causes the headers to be written to the same buffered packet queue, 864 thereby improving packet utilization, especially for small HTTP 865 messages. 866 8672019-01-16 868 - 1.17.14 869 - [FEATURE] http_client can now collect stats: time to connect, TTFB, 870 time to download, requests per seconds, and bandwidth. See -t flag. 871 - [BUGFIX] http_client: -B, -K, and -r can be used at the same time. 872 - [BUGFIX] http_client: do not display cert chain before each request. 873 Now this is only done once per connection, if the handshake is 874 successful and -a option is given. 875 - [BUGFIX] Do not wait to dispatch on_close() after reading. If a 876 stream is scheduled to be closed after on_read() callback returns, 877 close it immediately instead of waiting until the end of the tick. 878 If client creates new request from on_close() event, they will be 879 processed in the same tick instead of waiting for the next one. 880 - [BUGFIX] HEADERS stream is critical: always treat it with highest 881 priority. 882 8832019-01-10 884 - 1.17.12 885 - [FEATURE] http_client can now issue parallel requests in the context 886 of a single connection. See -w option. 887 8882019-01-03 889 - 1.17.11 890 - Fix strict aliasing warning in optimized compilation. 891 8922018-12-27 893 - 1.17.10 894 - Fix the example program to be able to use parallel connections 895 again. (See the -n argument.) 896 8972018-12-18 898 - 1.17.9 899 - [BUGFIX] Engine: reduce minimum batch size from 256 to 4 900 9012018-12-10 902 - 1.17.8 903 - [BUGFIX] Fix compilation on FreeBSD and 32-bit Linux 904 9052018-12-03 906 - 1.17.7 907 - [BUGFIX] Do not unset PING alarm before ringing expired alarms. 908 This prevented PING from ever being sent. 909 9102018-11-29 911 - 1.17.6 912 - Add failsafe: resume sending packets after some time 913 914 The change puts a 1-second limit on the amount of time the engine 915 will not send packets after some packets are delayed. This makes 916 the library robust in case the user does not unblock the engine 917 explicitly using lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() call. 918 919 - [BUGFIX] Handle corner cases in send controller when packets are 920 a) delayed or b) dropped during repackaging. 921 - [BUGFIX] Memory leak: destroy buffered packets during controller 922 cleanup. 923 9242018-11-16 925 - 1.17.3 926 - [BUGFIX] Do not send STOP_WAITING frames when using Q044 927 9282018-10-19 929 - 1.17.2 930 - [BUGFIX] Memory leak in test_frame_rw unit test. 931 - [BUGFIX] Parsing packets with short IETF header: do not overwrite 932 flags. (Only a problem in unit tests -- benign otherwise.) 933 9342018-10-16 935 - 1.17.0 936 - [API Change] Packet out Memory Interface (PMI) update: 937 - Split PMI pool return into pmi_release and pmi_return 938 - PMI callbacks take peer_ctx and is_ipv6 arguments 939 - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free when certificate is updated 940 - Silence gcc warning in optimized mode by performing useless 941 initialization 942 - cmake: use the standard variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE instead of 943 DEVEL_MODE 944 9452018-10-03 946 - 1.16.0 947 - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_n_avail_streams() 948 - [BUGFIX] only dispatch crypto stream read events if WANT_READ is on 949 9502018-09-27 951 - 1.15.0 952 - [API Change] Add LSCONN_ST_PEER_GOING_AWAY to the list of conn statuses 953 - [BUGFIX] free uncompressed headers correctly when error occurs 954 9552018-09-12 956 - 1.14.3 957 - [BUGFIX] Do not abort conn on STREAM frame for a reset stream 958 - [BUGFIX] Drop packets that would become empty due to repackaging. 959 Packets on the scheduled queue may be marked for repackaging. 960 Frames such as ACK frame that are never resent are removed from 961 repackaged packets. We must check that the newly repackaged packet 962 would not be empty. If it would be, it is destroyed instead and 963 the next packet on the scheduled queue is used. Note that this 964 change only affects the logic to return the next packet to be sent. 965 Lost packets that are being rescheduled are already processed in 966 this fashion. 967 - Byteswap CID before logging it - this makes it match Chrome CIDs. 968 (Except Q035, which is the last little-endian GQUIC version we 969 support.) 970 9712018-09-06 972 - 1.14.0 973 - [API Change] Disable packet sending if full batch cannot be sent 974 If lsquic_packets_out_f() cannot send the whole batch, disable 975 packet sending until lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() is called. 976 - [BUGFIX] Handle case when STREAM frame does not fit. 977 - [BUGFIX] Always allow incoming STREAM frames to overlap. Peers 978 may send overlapping STREAM frames even if using versions older 979 than Q043. 980 - Custom header set fixes: 981 - set "FIN reached" flag when custom header with FIN flag is 982 claimed; 983 - do not return custom header set for a reset stream. 984 9852018-08-27 986 987 - 1.13.0 988 - [FEATURE, API Change] Add ability to create custom header set 989 objects via callbacks.

If there are buffered packets, the connection is only tickable if 1130 they can be sent out. 1131 2. A connection is tickable if there are streams on the servicing 1132 queue. When the tick occurs, we must service the stream 1133 independent of whether any packets are sent. 1134 - Fix assertion in pacer which can be incorrect under some 1135 conditions. 1136 - cmake: do not turn on address sanitizer if in Travis. 1137 11382018-04-20 1139 1140 - [BUGFIX] Fix bug in lsquic_engine_connect() exposed by yesterday's 1141 changes. 1142 11432018-04-19 1144 1145 - [BUGFIX] Add connection to Tickable Queue on stream write 1146 - cmake: use MSVC variable instead of trying to detect 1147 - engine: improve connection incref/decref logging 1148 - stream: don't ignore errors that may occur on triggered flush 1149 - connection: remove obsolete method 1150 - engine: indicate connection as tickable if previous call went 1151 over threshold 1152 11532018-04-09 1154 1155 [API Change, OPTIMIZATION] Only process conns that need to be processed 1156 1157 The API is simplified: do not expose the user code to several 1158 queues. A "connection queue" is now an internal concept. 1159 The user processes connections using the single function 1160 lsquic_engine_process_conns(). When this function is called, 1161 only those connections are processed that need to be processed. 1162 A connection needs to be processed when: 1163 1164 1. New incoming packets have been fed to the connection. 1165 2. User wants to read from a stream that is readable. 1166 3. User wants to write to a stream that is writeable. 1167 4. There are buffered packets that can be sent out. (This 1168 means that the user wrote to a stream outside of the 1169 lsquic library callback.) 1170 5. A control frame (such as BLOCKED) needs to be sent out. 1171 6. A stream needs to be serviced or delayed stream needs to 1172 be created. 1173 7. An alarm rings. 1174 8. Pacer timer expires. 1175 1176 To achieve this, the library places the connections into two 1177 priority queues (min heaps): 1178 1179 1. Tickable Queue; and 1180 2. Advisory Tick Time queue (ATTQ). 1181 1182 Each time lsquic_engine_process_conns() is called, the Tickable 1183 Queue is emptied. After the connections have been ticked, they are 1184 queried again: if a connection is not being closed, it is placed 1185 either in the Tickable Queue if it is ready to be ticked again or 1186 it is placed in the Advisory Tick Time Queue. It is assumed that 1187 a connection always has at least one timer set (the idle alarm). 1188 1189 The connections in the Tickable Queue are arranged in the least 1190 recently ticked order. This lets connections that have been quiet 1191 longer to get their packets scheduled first. 1192 1193 This change means that the library no longer needs to be ticked 1194 periodically. The user code can query the library when is the 1195 next tick event and schedule it exactly. When connections are 1196 processed, only the tickable connections are processed, not *all* 1197 the connections. When there are no tick events, it means that no 1198 timer event is necessary -- only the file descriptor READ event 1199 is active. 1200 1201 The following are improvements and simplifications that have 1202 been triggered: 1203 1204 - Queue of connections with incoming packets is gone. 1205 - "Pending Read/Write Events" Queue is gone (along with its 1206 history and progress checks). This queue has become the 1207 Tickable Queue. 1208 - The connection hash no longer needs to track the connection 1209 insertion order. 1210 12112018-04-02 1212 1213 - [FEATURE] Windows support 1214 1215 - Reduce stack use -- outgoing packet batch is now allocated on the heap. 1216 12172018-03-09 1218 1219 - [OPTIMIZATION] Merge series of ACKs if possible 1220 1221 Parsed single-range ACK frames (that is the majority of frames) are 1222 saved in the connection and their processing is deferred until the 1223 connection is ticked. If several ACKs come in a series between 1224 adjacent ticks, we check whether the latest ACK is a strict superset 1225 of the saved ACK. If it is, the older ACK is not processed. 1226 1227 If ACK frames can be merged, they are merged and only one of them is 1228 either processed or saved. 1229 1230 - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up ACK verification by simplifying send history. 1231 1232 Never generate a gap in the sent packet number sequence. This reduces 1233 the send history to a single number instead of potentially a series of 1234 packet ranges and thereby speeds up ACK verification. 1235 1236 By default, detecting a gap in the send history is not fatal: only a 1237 single warning is generated per connection. The connection can continue 1238 to operate even if the ACK verification code is not able to detect some 1239 inconsistencies. 1240 1241 - [OPTIMIZATION] Rearrange the lsquic_send_ctl struct 1242 1243 The first part of struct lsquic_send_ctl now consists of members that 1244 are used in lsquic_send_ctl_got_ack() (in the absense of packet loss, 1245 which is the normal case). To speed up reads and writes, we no longer 1246 try to save space by using 8- and 16-bit integers. Use regular integer 1247 width for everything. 1248 1249 - [OPTIMIZATION] Cache size of sent packet. 1250 1251 - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of the largest ACKed in packet_out 1252 1253 Instead of parsing our own ACK frames when packet has been acked, 1254 use the value saved in the packet_out structure when the ACK frame 1255 was generated. 1256 1257 - [OPTIMIZATION] Take RTT sampling conditional out of ACK loop 1258 1259 - [OPTIMIZATION] ACK processing: only call clock_gettime() if needed 1260 1261 - [OPTIMIZATION] Several code-level optimizations to ACK processing. 1262 1263 - Fix: http_client: fix -I flag; switch assert() to abort() 1264 12652018-02-26 1266 - [API Change] lsquic_engine_connect() returns pointer to the connection 1267 object. 1268 - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_get_engine() to get engine object from 1269 connection object. 1270 - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_status() to query connection status. 1271 - [API Change] Add add lsquic_conn_set_ctx(). 1272 - [API Change] Add new timestamp format, e.g. 2017-03-21 13:43:46.671345 1273 - [OPTIMIZATION] Process handshake STREAM frames as soon as packet 1274 arrives. 1275 - [OPTIMIZATION] Do not compile expensive send controller sanity check 1276 by default. 1277 - [OPTIMIZATION] Add fast path to gquic_be_gen_reg_pkt_header. 1278 - [OPTIMIZATION] Only make squeeze function call if necessary. 1279 - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up Q039 ACK frame parsing. 1280 - [OPTIMIZATION] Fit most used elements of packet_out into first 64 bytes. 1281 - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of scheduled bytes instead of calculating. 1282 - [OPTIMIZATION] Prefetch next unacked packet when processing ACK. 1283 - [OPTIMIZATION] Leverage fact that ACK ranges and unacked list are. 1284 ordered. 1285 - [OPTIMIZATION] Reduce function pointer use for STREAM frame generation 1286 - Fix: reset incoming streams that arrive after we send GOAWAY. 1287 - Fix: delay client on_new_conn() call until connection is fully set up. 1288 - Fixes to buffered packets logic: splitting, STREAM frame elision. 1289 - Fix: do not dispatch on_write callback if no packets are available. 1290 - Fix WINDOW_UPDATE send and resend logic. 1291 - Fix STREAM frame extension code. 1292 - Fix: Drop unflushed data when stream is reset. 1293 - Switch to tracking CWND using bytes rather than packets. 1294 - Fix TCP friendly adjustment in cubic. 1295 - Fix: do not generate invalid STOP_WAITING frames during high packet 1296 loss. 1297 - Pacer fixes. 1298 12992017-12-18 1300 1301 - Fix: better follow cubic curve after idle period 1302 - Fix: add missing parts to outgoing packet splitting code 1303 - Fix: compilation using gcc 4.8.4 1304 13052017-10-31 1306 1307 - Add APIs.txt -- describes LSQUIC APIs 1308 13092017-10-31 1310 1311 - [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone. The stream no 1312 longer opens files and deals with file descriptors. (Among other 1313 things, this makes the code more portable.) Three writing functions 1314 are provided: 1315 1316 lsquic_stream_write 1317 lsquic_stream_writev 1318 lsquic_stream_writef (NEW) 1319 1320 lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function 1321 pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement. 1322 This is the most flexible way. lsquic_stream_write() and 1323 lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around 1324 lsquic_stream_writef(). 1325 1326 - [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the 1327 on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer, 1328 bypassing auxiliary data structures. This reduces amount of memory 1329 required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited 1330 by the congestion window. 1331 1332 To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N 1333 outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to 1334 by any stream. One half of these are reserved for the highest 1335 priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams. This way, 1336 low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams 1337 and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send 1338 their packets out. 1339 1340 The algorithm is as follows: 1341 1342 - When user writes to stream outside of the callback: 1343 - If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the 1344 reserved N/2 queue or fail. 1345 (The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) -- 1346 rather than N/2, allowing high-priority streams to write as 1347 much as can be sent.) 1348 - If the stream is not the highest priority, try to place the 1349 data onto the reserved N/2 queue or fail. 1350 - When tick occurs *and* more packets can be scheduled: 1351 - Transfer packets from the high N/2 queue to the scheduled 1352 queue. 1353 - If more scheduling is allowed: 1354 - Call on_write callbacks for highest-priority streams, 1355 placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue. 1356 - If more scheduling is allowed: 1357 - Transfer packets from the low N/2 queue to the scheduled 1358 queue. 1359 - If more scheduling is allowed: 1360 - Call on_write callbacks for non-highest-priority streams, 1361 placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue 1362 1363 The number N is currently 20, but it could be varied based on 1364 resource usage. 1365 1366 - If stream is created due to incoming headers, make headers readable 1367 from on_new. 1368 1369 - Outgoing packets are no longer marked non-writeable to prevent placing 1370 more than one STREAM frame from the same stream into a single packet. 1371 This property is maintained via code flow and an explicit check. 1372 Packets for stream data are allocated using a special function. 1373 1374 - STREAM frame elision is cheaper, as we only perform it if a reset 1375 stream has outgoing packets referencing it. 1376 1377 - lsquic_packet_out_t is smaller, as stream_rec elements are now 1378 inside a union. 1379 13802017-10-12 1381 1382 - Do not send RST_STREAM when stream is closed for reading 1383 - Raise maximum header size from 4K to 64K 1384 - Check header name and value lengths against maximum imposed by HPACK 1385 - Fix NULL dereference in stream flow controller 1386 13872017-10-09 1388 1389 - Hide handshake implementation behind a set of function pointers 1390 - Use monotonically increasing clock 1391 - Make sure that retx delay is not larger than the max of 60 seconds 1392 13932017-09-29 1394 1395 - A few fixes to code and README 1396 13972017-09-28 1398 1399 - Add support for Q041; drop support for Q040 1400 14012017-09-27 1402 1403 - Fix CMakeLists.txt: BoringSSL include and lib was mixed up 1404 14052017-09-26 1406 1407 - Add support for Mac OS 1408 - Add support for Raspberry Pi 1409 - Fix BoringSSL compilation: include <openssl/hmac.h> explicitly 1410 14112017-09-22 1412 1413 - Initial release 1414
