172    - Revert the 2.22.1 lsquic_is_valid_hs_packet change.  All that was
173      necessary is a change to the way we call it in lsquic_engine.  No
174      change to the function itself is required.
175
1762020-10-08
177    - 2.22.1
178    - [BUGFIX] Function that checks validity of handshake packets.

3292020-07-06
330    - 2.18.0
331    - [API] Rename "0-RTT" to "session resumption." In IETF QUIC, "0-RTT"
332      always refers to early data, meaning a request that the server can
333      reply to in the very first return flight.  A more appropriate name
334      for what we support on the client site is "session resumption," which
335      is standard TLS terminology.  Later, when we add support for 0-RTT
336      (early data), we can use the 0-RTT terminology again, this time in
337      proper context.

615      content-length.
616    - [HTTP3] Stop issuing streams credits if peer stops opening QPACK

6712019-12-05
672    - 2.7.1
673    - [BUGFIX] client: don't call ignore_init() in middle of batch send.
674      ignore_init() makes an assumption that the send controller has access
675      to all outgoing packets.  This change wraps a few IETF full connection
676      methods to delay calling ignore_init() until the engine returns all
677      outgoing packets that were batched.
678    - [BUGFIX] set errno to EAGAIN if sendmmsg() can't send all of them.
679      This needs to be done because the value of errno may be lost on

878
8792019-03-19
880    - 1.19.6
881    - [BUGFIX] Ensure that Largest Observed does not decrease in ACKs we
882      send.  ACK frames placed in packets in buffered queues (optimization
883      introduced in 1.17.15) can be preceded by an ACK frame generated later.
884      In this case, the older ACK frame should not be sent out, as Chromium-
885      based servers flags decrease in the ACK frame's Largest Observed value
886      as an error.
887
8882019-03-05
889    - 1.19.5
890    - [BUGFIX] Use correct public key from PUBS based on KEXS index.
891    - [BUGFIX] Check flags before dispatching writes, avoiding assert.
892    - [BUGFIX] Set :scheme to "https" (instead of "HTTP").
893
8942019-02-25
895    - 1.19.4
896    - [BUGFIX] Check buffer bounds when looking up version in 0-RTT blob.
897    - [BUGFIX] http_client: don't fetch 0-rtt info if handshake failed.
898    - Log number of pacer calls at DEBUG, rather than NOTICE, level.
899
9002019-02-18
901    - 1.19.3
902    - [BUGFIX] Q044: don't encode packet number in 6 bytes.  Six-byte
903      packet number encoding does not exist in Q044.  This fixes a
904      regression introduced in '[BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain
905      ACK frames' -- we need to keep QUIC version in mind when selecting
906      the longest possible packet number encoding used for the buffered
907      packet that carries the ACK.
908    - [BUGFIX] Do not increase CWND when timeout occurs.
909    - http_client: support setting handshake timeout on command line.
910      Use -o handshake_to=timeout.
911    - http_client: use -k to connect UDP socket to pick up ICMP errors.
912    - http_client: allow pathless mode, when only handshake is performed
913      without issuing any requests.  This can be done by simply not
914      specifying a -p flag on the command line.
915
9162019-02-11
917    - 1.19.2
918    - [BUGFIX] Begin negotiation with version provided in 0-RTT info.

923    - [BUGFIX] Fix Windows build.
924
9252019-02-04
926    - 1.19.0
927    - [FEATURE, API Change] 0-RTT support.  Add function to export 0-RTT
928      information; it can be supplied to a subsequent connect() call.
929    - [FEATURE] Add -0 flag to http_client to exercise 0-RTT support.
930    - [BUGFIX] Resuscitate the Windows build.
931    - [BUGFIX] Send HTTP settings (max header list size) if necessary.
932    - [BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain ACK frames.
933    - [BUGFIX] Make packet writeable once all STREAM frames are elided.
934    - [BUGFIX] Fix potential null dereference when realloc fails.
935    - cmake: simplify build configuration.
936
9372019-01-28
938    - 1.18.0
939    - [API Change] Can specify clock granularity in engine settings.
940    - [BUGFIX] Pacer uses fixed clock granularity.  Since the change on
941      2018-04-09, it is not necessary to try to approximate the next tick
942      time in the pacer: it can use fix clock granularity specified by
943      the user.
944    - [BUGFIX] Do not tick constantly before handshake is done.
945    - [BUGFIX] Do not exit tick prematurely: reuse packet with ACK.  Even
946      if we cannot allocate *more* packets, we could still be able to write
947      to one already allocated.
948    - [BUGFIX] Do not schedule pacer if there are no lost packets.
949
9502019-01-17
951    - 1.17.15
952    - [BUGFIX] http_client: make sure only one read per on_read() callback
953      is performed in the header conversion bypass (-B) mode.
954    - http_client: with -E, assign random priority when stream is created.
955    - [OPTIMIZATION] On immediate write, place an ACK frame into the first
956      buffered packet if an ACK is queued.  This reduces the number of
957      standalone ACK packets.
958    - [OPTIMIZATION] Allow placing more than one STREAM frame from the same
959      stream into an outgoing packet.  This change minimizes the number of
960      buffered packets required to store several small HTTP messages by
961      virtue of allowing more than one STREAM frame from HEADERS stream in
962      the same packet.
963    - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers when writing to buffered packets.  This
964      causes the headers to be written to the same buffered packet queue,
965      thereby improving packet utilization, especially for small HTTP
966      messages.
967
9682019-01-16
969    - 1.17.14
970    - [FEATURE] http_client can now collect stats: time to connect, TTFB,
971      time to download, requests per seconds, and bandwidth.  See -t flag.
972    - [BUGFIX] http_client: -B, -K, and -r can be used at the same time.
973    - [BUGFIX] http_client: do not display cert chain before each request.
974      Now this is only done once per connection, if the handshake is
975      successful and -a option is given.
976    - [BUGFIX] Do not wait to dispatch on_close() after reading.  If a
977      stream is scheduled to be closed after on_read() callback returns,
978      close it immediately instead of waiting until the end of the tick.
979      If client creates new request from on_close() event, they will be
980      processed in the same tick instead of waiting for the next one.
981    - [BUGFIX] HEADERS stream is critical: always treat it with highest
982      priority.
983
9842019-01-10
985    - 1.17.12
986    - [FEATURE] http_client can now issue parallel requests in the context
987      of a single connection.  See -w option.

1004    - [BUGFIX] Fix compilation on FreeBSD and 32-bit Linux
1005
10062018-12-03
1007    - 1.17.7
1008    - [BUGFIX] Do not unset PING alarm before ringing expired alarms.
1009      This prevented PING from ever being sent.
1010
10112018-11-29
1012    - 1.17.6
1013    - Add failsafe: resume sending packets after some time
1014
1015      The change puts a 1-second limit on the amount of time the engine
1016      will not send packets after some packets are delayed.  This makes
1017      the library robust in case the user does not unblock the engine
1018      explicitly using lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() call.
1019
1020    - [BUGFIX] Handle corner cases in send controller when packets are
1021      a) delayed or b) dropped during repackaging.
1022    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak: destroy buffered packets during controller
1023      cleanup.
1024
10252018-11-16
1026    - 1.17.3
1027    - [BUGFIX] Do not send STOP_WAITING frames when using Q044
1028
10292018-10-19
1030    - 1.17.2
1031    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak in test_frame_rw unit test.
1032    - [BUGFIX] Parsing packets with short IETF header: do not overwrite
1033      flags.  (Only a problem in unit tests -- benign otherwise.)
1034
10352018-10-16
1036    - 1.17.0
1037    - [API Change] Packet out Memory Interface (PMI) update:
1038      - Split PMI pool return into pmi_release and pmi_return
1039      - PMI callbacks take peer_ctx and is_ipv6 arguments
1040    - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free when certificate is updated
1041    - Silence gcc warning in optimized mode by performing useless
1042      initialization
1043    - cmake: use the standard variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE instead of
1044      DEVEL_MODE

1047    - 1.16.0
1048    - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_n_avail_streams()

1050
10512018-09-27
1052    - 1.15.0
1053    - [API Change] Add LSCONN_ST_PEER_GOING_AWAY to the list of conn statuses
1054    - [BUGFIX] free uncompressed headers correctly when error occurs
1055
10562018-09-12
1057    - 1.14.3
1058    - [BUGFIX] Do not abort conn on STREAM frame for a reset stream
1059    - [BUGFIX] Drop packets that would become empty due to repackaging.
1060      Packets on the scheduled queue may be marked for repackaging.
1061      Frames such as ACK frame that are never resent are removed from
1062      repackaged packets.  We must check that the newly repackaged packet
1063      would not be empty.  If it would be, it is destroyed instead and
1064      the next packet on the scheduled queue is used.  Note that this
1065      change only affects the logic to return the next packet to be sent.
1066      Lost packets that are being rescheduled are already processed in
1067      this fashion.
1068    - Byteswap CID before logging it - this makes it match Chrome CIDs.
1069      (Except Q035, which is the last little-endian GQUIC version we
1070      support.)
1071
10722018-09-06
1073    - 1.14.0
1074    - [API Change] Disable packet sending if full batch cannot be sent
1075      If lsquic_packets_out_f() cannot send the whole batch, disable
1076      packet sending until lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() is called.
1077    - [BUGFIX] Handle case when STREAM frame does not fit.
1078    - [BUGFIX] Always allow incoming STREAM frames to overlap.  Peers
1079      may send overlapping STREAM frames even if using versions older
1080      than Q043.
1081    - Custom header set fixes:
1082      - set "FIN reached" flag when custom header with FIN flag is
1083        claimed;
1084      - do not return custom header set for a reset stream.
1085
10862018-08-27
1087
1088    - 1.13.0
1089    - [FEATURE, API Change] Add ability to create custom header set
1090      objects via callbacks.  This avoids reading and re-parsing
1091      headers from the stream.
1092

1110    - Emit info instead of warning messages when stream is used in
1111      unexpected ways.

1134
1135    - 1.10.1
1136    - [BUGFIX]  process connections after each batch of packets is read
1137      This avoids a problem of accumulating a very large list of packets
1138      (possible when speeds are high and socket's receive buffer is large)
1139      and processing it all at once.
1140    - If glibc is older than 2.17, link with rt.  This is necessary for
1141      clock_getres(2).
1142    - Add version macros to lsquic.h; remove unnecessary includes.
1143
11442018-06-13
1145
1146    - [BUGFIX] allow multiple parallel connections by default
1147
1148      Use the original method of tracking connections by CIDs by default.
1149      If zero-sized CID support is turned on, connections are tracked by
1150      the address.  A new connection is not created if another connection
1151      is using the same network address

1222    - [BUGFIX] Conn is tickable if it wants to send a connection-level
1223      frame.
1224
12252018-04-23
1226
1227    - Fix busy loop: tickable must make progress.  When connection is
1228      self-reporting as tickable, it must make progress when ticked.  There
1229      are two issues:
1230        1. If there are buffered packets, the connection is only tickable if
1231           they can be sent out.
1232        2. A connection is tickable if there are streams on the servicing
1233           queue.  When the tick occurs, we must service the stream
1234           independent of whether any packets are sent.
1235    - Fix assertion in pacer which can be incorrect under some
1236      conditions.

1249    - stream: don't ignore errors that may occur on triggered flush
1250    - connection: remove obsolete method

12542018-04-09
1255
1256    [API Change, OPTIMIZATION] Only process conns that need to be processed
1257
1258    The API is simplified: do not expose the user code to several
1259    queues.  A "connection queue" is now an internal concept.
1260    The user processes connections using the single function
1261    lsquic_engine_process_conns().  When this function is called,
1262    only those connections are processed that need to be processed.
1263    A connection needs to be processed when:
1264
1265        1. New incoming packets have been fed to the connection.
1266        2. User wants to read from a stream that is readable.
1267        3. User wants to write to a stream that is writeable.
1268        4. There are buffered packets that can be sent out.  (This
1269           means that the user wrote to a stream outside of the
1270           lsquic library callback.)
1271        5. A control frame (such as BLOCKED) needs to be sent out.
1272        6. A stream needs to be serviced or delayed stream needs to
1273           be created.
1274        7. An alarm rings.
1275        8. Pacer timer expires.
1276
1277    To achieve this, the library places the connections into two
1278    priority queues (min heaps):
1279
1280        1. Tickable Queue; and
1281        2. Advisory Tick Time queue (ATTQ).
1282
1283    Each time lsquic_engine_process_conns() is called, the Tickable
1284    Queue is emptied.  After the connections have been ticked, they are
1285    queried again: if a connection is not being closed, it is placed
1286    either in the Tickable Queue if it is ready to be ticked again or
1287    it is placed in the Advisory Tick Time Queue.  It is assumed that
1288    a connection always has at least one timer set (the idle alarm).
1289
1290    The connections in the Tickable Queue are arranged in the least
1291    recently ticked order.  This lets connections that have been quiet
1292    longer to get their packets scheduled first.
1293
1294    This change means that the library no longer needs to be ticked
1295    periodically.  The user code can query the library when is the
1296    next tick event and schedule it exactly.  When connections are
1297    processed, only the tickable connections are processed, not *all*
1298    the connections.  When there are no tick events, it means that no
1299    timer event is necessary -- only the file descriptor READ event
1300    is active.
1301
1302    The following are improvements and simplifications that have
1303    been triggered:
1304
1305        - Queue of connections with incoming packets is gone.
1306        - "Pending Read/Write Events" Queue is gone (along with its
1307          history and progress checks).  This queue has become the
1308          Tickable Queue.
1309        - The connection hash no longer needs to track the connection
1310          insertion order.

1319
1320    - [OPTIMIZATION] Merge series of ACKs if possible
1321
1322      Parsed single-range ACK frames (that is the majority of frames) are
1323      saved in the connection and their processing is deferred until the
1324      connection is ticked.  If several ACKs come in a series between
1325      adjacent ticks, we check whether the latest ACK is a strict superset
1326      of the saved ACK.  If it is, the older ACK is not processed.
1327
1328      If ACK frames can be merged, they are merged and only one of them is
1329      either processed or saved.
1330
1331    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up ACK verification by simplifying send history.
1332
1333      Never generate a gap in the sent packet number sequence.  This reduces
1334      the send history to a single number instead of potentially a series of
1335      packet ranges and thereby speeds up ACK verification.
1336
1337      By default, detecting a gap in the send history is not fatal: only a
1338      single warning is generated per connection.  The connection can continue
1339      to operate even if the ACK verification code is not able to detect some
1340      inconsistencies.
1341
1342    - [OPTIMIZATION] Rearrange the lsquic_send_ctl struct
1343
1344      The first part of struct lsquic_send_ctl now consists of members that
1345      are used in lsquic_send_ctl_got_ack() (in the absense of packet loss,
1346      which is the normal case).  To speed up reads and writes, we no longer
1347      try to save space by using 8- and 16-bit integers.  Use regular integer
1348      width for everything.
1349
1350    - [OPTIMIZATION] Cache size of sent packet.
1351
1352    - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of the largest ACKed in packet_out
1353
1354      Instead of parsing our own ACK frames when packet has been acked,
1355      use the value saved in the packet_out structure when the ACK frame
1356      was generated.
1357
1358    - [OPTIMIZATION] Take RTT sampling conditional out of ACK loop
1359
1360    - [OPTIMIZATION] ACK processing: only call clock_gettime() if needed
1361
1362    - [OPTIMIZATION] Several code-level optimizations to ACK processing.

1409
14102017-10-31
1411
1412    - [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone.  The stream no
1413      longer opens files and deals with file descriptors.  (Among other
1414      things, this makes the code more portable.)  Three writing functions
1415      are provided:
1416
1417        lsquic_stream_write
1418        lsquic_stream_writev
1419        lsquic_stream_writef    (NEW)
1420
1421      lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function
1422      pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement.
1423      This is the most flexible way.  lsquic_stream_write() and
1424      lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around
1425      lsquic_stream_writef().
1426
1427    - [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the
1428      on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer,
1429      bypassing auxiliary data structures.  This reduces amount of memory
1430      required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited
1431      by the congestion window.
1432
1433      To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N
1434      outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to
1435      by any stream.  One half of these are reserved for the highest
1436      priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams.  This way,
1437      low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams
1438      and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send
1439      their packets out.
1440
1441      The algorithm is as follows:
1442
1443      - When user writes to stream outside of the callback:
1444        - If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the
1445          reserved N/2 queue or fail.
1446            (The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) --
1447             rather than N/2, allowing high-priority streams to write as
1448             much as can be sent.)
1449        - If the stream is not the highest priority, try to place the
1450          data onto the reserved N/2 queue or fail.
1451      - When tick occurs *and* more packets can be scheduled:
1452        - Transfer packets from the high N/2 queue to the scheduled
1453          queue.
1454        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1455          - Call on_write callbacks for highest-priority streams,
1456            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue.
1457        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1458          - Transfer packets from the low N/2 queue to the scheduled
1459            queue.
1460        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1461          - Call on_write callbacks for non-highest-priority streams,
1462            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue
1463
1464      The number N is currently 20, but it could be varied based on
1465      resource usage.
1466
1467    - If stream is created due to incoming headers, make headers readable
1468      from on_new.
1469
1470    - Outgoing packets are no longer marked non-writeable to prevent placing
1471      more than one STREAM frame from the same stream into a single packet.
1472      This property is maintained via code flow and an explicit check.
1473      Packets for stream data are allocated using a special function.
1474
1475    - STREAM frame elision is cheaper, as we only perform it if a reset
1476      stream has outgoing packets referencing it.
1477
1478    - lsquic_packet_out_t is smaller, as stream_rec elements are now
1479      inside a union.
1480
