60    - [SPEC] Use FINAL_SIZE_ERROR when FIN mismatch is detected.
61    - [OPTIMIZATION] Closed connection only gets one chance to send packets.
62    - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers stream before packetizing stream data.
63    - [OPTIMIZATION] process QPACK encoder STREAM frames immediately.
64    - Update ls-qpack to v0.10.1.
65
662019-09-30
67    - 2.4.3
68    - Add GQUIC versions to the list of h3 ALPNs for Alt-Svc header.
69      For example, h3-Q043.  Chrome will switch to using this format at

71    - [BUGFIX] Send correct value in max_streams_uni transport param
72    - [SPEC] Abort IETF QUIC connection if max_early_data_size is not set
73      to 0xFFFFFFFF
74
752019-09-23
76    - 2.4.2
77    - [BUGFIX] H3 framing: fix zero-byte write when space is available

84
852019-09-18
86    - 2.4.0
87    - [FEATURE] QUIC and HTTP/3 Internet Draft 23 support

90    - 2.3.1
91    - [BUGFIX] Fix memory leaks
92    - [BUGFIX] Fix unit tests
93
942019-09-12
95    - 2.3.0
96    - [FEATURE] BBR congestion control is on by default
97    - [BUGFIX] BBR app-limited logic
98    - [BUGFIX] Fix uninitialized warnings in IETF
99    - [BUGFIX] Update ls-qpack to v0.9.14
100    - [CLEANUP] Code cleanup
101
1022019-09-11
103    - 2.2.0
104    - [FEATURE] Server code is included in the library
105    - [FEATURE] IETF QUIC and HTTP/3 Support (ID-22)
106
1072019-05-13
108    - 1.21.2
109    - [OPTIMIZATION] HPACK: use history to improve compression performance
110
1112019-05-06
112    - 1.21.1
113    - [BUGFIX] If FIN or RST not received, don't delay stream destruction.
114    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up HPACK encoder by using same hash value to
115      search static and dynamic tables.
116
1172019-04-12
118    - 1.21.0
119    - [FEATURE] Add qlog log module.
120
1212019-04-01
122    - 1.20.0
123    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q046.
124
1252019-03-19
126    - 1.19.6
127    - [BUGFIX] Ensure that Largest Observed does not decrease in ACKs we
128      send.  ACK frames placed in packets in buffered queues (optimization
129      introduced in 1.17.15) can be preceded by an ACK frame generated later.
130      In this case, the older ACK frame should not be sent out, as Chromium-
131      based servers flags decrease in the ACK frame's Largest Observed value
132      as an error.
133
1342019-03-05
135    - 1.19.5
136    - [BUGFIX] Use correct public key from PUBS based on KEXS index.
137    - [BUGFIX] Check flags before dispatching writes, avoiding assert.
138    - [BUGFIX] Set :scheme to "https" (instead of "HTTP").
139
1402019-02-25
141    - 1.19.4
142    - [BUGFIX] Check buffer bounds when looking up version in 0-RTT blob.
143    - [BUGFIX] http_client: don't fetch 0-rtt info if handshake failed.
144    - Log number of pacer calls at DEBUG, rather than NOTICE, level.
145
1462019-02-18
147    - 1.19.3
148    - [BUGFIX] Q044: don't encode packet number in 6 bytes.  Six-byte
149      packet number encoding does not exist in Q044.  This fixes a
150      regression introduced in '[BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain
151      ACK frames' -- we need to keep QUIC version in mind when selecting
152      the longest possible packet number encoding used for the buffered
153      packet that carries the ACK.
154    - [BUGFIX] Do not increase CWND when timeout occurs.
155    - http_client: support setting handshake timeout on command line.
156      Use -o handshake_to=timeout.
157    - http_client: use -k to connect UDP socket to pick up ICMP errors.
158    - http_client: allow pathless mode, when only handshake is performed
159      without issuing any requests.  This can be done by simply not
160      specifying a -p flag on the command line.
161
1622019-02-11
163    - 1.19.2
164    - [BUGFIX] Begin negotiation with version provided in 0-RTT info.
165    - [BUGFIX] Version checking in zero_rtt deserialize function.
166
1672019-02-04
168    - 1.19.1
169    - [BUGFIX] Fix Windows build.
170
1712019-02-04
172    - 1.19.0
173    - [FEATURE, API Change] 0-RTT support.  Add function to export 0-RTT
174      information; it can be supplied to a subsequent connect() call.
175    - [FEATURE] Add -0 flag to http_client to exercise 0-RTT support.
176    - [BUGFIX] Resuscitate the Windows build.
177    - [BUGFIX] Send HTTP settings (max header list size) if necessary.
178    - [BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain ACK frames.
179    - [BUGFIX] Make packet writeable once all STREAM frames are elided.
180    - [BUGFIX] Fix potential null dereference when realloc fails.
181    - cmake: simplify build configuration.
182
1832019-01-28
184    - 1.18.0
185    - [API Change] Can specify clock granularity in engine settings.
186    - [BUGFIX] Pacer uses fixed clock granularity.  Since the change on
187      2018-04-09, it is not necessary to try to approximate the next tick
188      time in the pacer: it can use fix clock granularity specified by
189      the user.
190    - [BUGFIX] Do not tick constantly before handshake is done.
191    - [BUGFIX] Do not exit tick prematurely: reuse packet with ACK.  Even
192      if we cannot allocate *more* packets, we could still be able to write
193      to one already allocated.
194    - [BUGFIX] Do not schedule pacer if there are no lost packets.
195
1962019-01-17
197    - 1.17.15
198    - [BUGFIX] http_client: make sure only one read per on_read() callback
199      is performed in the header conversion bypass (-B) mode.
200    - http_client: with -E, assign random priority when stream is created.
201    - [OPTIMIZATION] On immediate write, place an ACK frame into the first
202      buffered packet if an ACK is queued.  This reduces the number of
203      standalone ACK packets.
204    - [OPTIMIZATION] Allow placing more than one STREAM frame from the same
205      stream into an outgoing packet.  This change minimizes the number of
206      buffered packets required to store several small HTTP messages by
207      virtue of allowing more than one STREAM frame from HEADERS stream in
208      the same packet.
209    - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers when writing to buffered packets.  This
210      causes the headers to be written to the same buffered packet queue,
211      thereby improving packet utilization, especially for small HTTP
212      messages.
213
2142019-01-16
215    - 1.17.14
216    - [FEATURE] http_client can now collect stats: time to connect, TTFB,
217      time to download, requests per seconds, and bandwidth.  See -t flag.
218    - [BUGFIX] http_client: -B, -K, and -r can be used at the same time.
219    - [BUGFIX] http_client: do not display cert chain before each request.
220      Now this is only done once per connection, if the handshake is
221      successful and -a option is given.
222    - [BUGFIX] Do not wait to dispatch on_close() after reading.  If a
223      stream is scheduled to be closed after on_read() callback returns,
224      close it immediately instead of waiting until the end of the tick.
225      If client creates new request from on_close() event, they will be
226      processed in the same tick instead of waiting for the next one.
227    - [BUGFIX] HEADERS stream is critical: always treat it with highest
228      priority.
229
2302019-01-10
231    - 1.17.12
232    - [FEATURE] http_client can now issue parallel requests in the context
233      of a single connection.  See -w option.
234
2352019-01-03
236    - 1.17.11
237    - Fix strict aliasing warning in optimized compilation.
238
2392018-12-27
240    - 1.17.10
241    - Fix the example program to be able to use parallel connections
242      again.  (See the -n argument.)
243
2442018-12-18
245    - 1.17.9
246    - [BUGFIX] Engine: reduce minimum batch size from 256 to 4
247
2482018-12-10
249    - 1.17.8
250    - [BUGFIX] Fix compilation on FreeBSD and 32-bit Linux
251
2522018-12-03
253    - 1.17.7
254    - [BUGFIX] Do not unset PING alarm before ringing expired alarms.
255      This prevented PING from ever being sent.
256
2572018-11-29
258    - 1.17.6
259    - Add failsafe: resume sending packets after some time
260
261      The change puts a 1-second limit on the amount of time the engine
262      will not send packets after some packets are delayed.  This makes
263      the library robust in case the user does not unblock the engine
264      explicitly using lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() call.
265
266    - [BUGFIX] Handle corner cases in send controller when packets are
267      a) delayed or b) dropped during repackaging.
268    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak: destroy buffered packets during controller
269      cleanup.
270
2712018-11-16
272    - 1.17.3
273    - [BUGFIX] Do not send STOP_WAITING frames when using Q044
274
2752018-10-19
276    - 1.17.2
277    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak in test_frame_rw unit test.
278    - [BUGFIX] Parsing packets with short IETF header: do not overwrite
279      flags.  (Only a problem in unit tests -- benign otherwise.)
280
2812018-10-16
282    - 1.17.0
283    - [API Change] Packet out Memory Interface (PMI) update:
284      - Split PMI pool return into pmi_release and pmi_return
285      - PMI callbacks take peer_ctx and is_ipv6 arguments
286    - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free when certificate is updated
287    - Silence gcc warning in optimized mode by performing useless
288      initialization
289    - cmake: use the standard variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE instead of
290      DEVEL_MODE
291
2922018-10-03
293    - 1.16.0
294    - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_n_avail_streams()
295    - [BUGFIX] only dispatch crypto stream read events if WANT_READ is on
296
2972018-09-27
298    - 1.15.0
299    - [API Change] Add LSCONN_ST_PEER_GOING_AWAY to the list of conn statuses
300    - [BUGFIX] free uncompressed headers correctly when error occurs
301
3022018-09-12
303    - 1.14.3
304    - [BUGFIX] Do not abort conn on STREAM frame for a reset stream
305    - [BUGFIX] Drop packets that would become empty due to repackaging.
306      Packets on the scheduled queue may be marked for repackaging.
307      Frames such as ACK frame that are never resent are removed from
308      repackaged packets.  We must check that the newly repackaged packet
309      would not be empty.  If it would be, it is destroyed instead and
310      the next packet on the scheduled queue is used.  Note that this
311      change only affects the logic to return the next packet to be sent.
312      Lost packets that are being rescheduled are already processed in
313      this fashion.
314    - Byteswap CID before logging it - this makes it match Chrome CIDs.
315      (Except Q035, which is the last little-endian GQUIC version we
316      support.)
317
3182018-09-06
319    - 1.14.0
320    - [API Change] Disable packet sending if full batch cannot be sent
321      If lsquic_packets_out_f() cannot send the whole batch, disable
322      packet sending until lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() is called.
323    - [BUGFIX] Handle case when STREAM frame does not fit.
324    - [BUGFIX] Always allow incoming STREAM frames to overlap.  Peers
325      may send overlapping STREAM frames even if using versions older
326      than Q043.
327    - Custom header set fixes:
328      - set "FIN reached" flag when custom header with FIN flag is
329        claimed;
330      - do not return custom header set for a reset stream.
331
3322018-08-27
333
334    - 1.13.0
335    - [FEATURE, API Change] Add ability to create custom header set
336      objects via callbacks.  This avoids reading and re-parsing
337      headers from the stream.
338
3392018-08-27
340
341    - 1.12.4
342    - Fix memory leak when engine is destroyed
343    - Fix memory leak in http_client
344    - Fix gcc warning in unit tests
345
3462018-08-22
347
348    - 1.12.3
349    - [BUGFIX] Fix duplicate STREAM frame detection
350
3512018-08-20
352
353    - 1.12.2
354    - [BUGFIX] Update count of scheduled bytes when adjusting size of
355      an already-scheduled packet.
356    - Emit info instead of warning messages when stream is used in
357      unexpected ways.
358
3592018-08-17
360
361    - 1.12.0
362    - [FEATURE, API Change] Add support for certificate verification
363
3642018-08-16
365
366    - 1.11.1
367    - [BUGFIX] Fix STOP_WAITING frame processing in the new Q044 code
368
3692018-08-15
370
371    - 1.11.0
372    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q044.
373
3742018-08-09
375
376    - 1.10.2
377    - [BUGFIX] Don't go over limit when creating delayed streams
378
3792018-07-10
380
381    - 1.10.1
382    - [BUGFIX]  process connections after each batch of packets is read
383      This avoids a problem of accumulating a very large list of packets
384      (possible when speeds are high and socket's receive buffer is large)
385      and processing it all at once.
386    - If glibc is older than 2.17, link with rt.  This is necessary for
387      clock_getres(2).
388    - Add version macros to lsquic.h; remove unnecessary includes.
389
3902018-06-13
391
392    - [BUGFIX] allow multiple parallel connections by default
393
394      Use the original method of tracking connections by CIDs by default.
395      If zero-sized CID support is turned on, connections are tracked by
396      the address.  A new connection is not created if another connection
397      is using the same network address
398
3992018-05-30
400
401    - [FEATURE, API CHANGE] Support zero-sized CIDs in received packets
402
4032018-05-24
404
405    - Close connection properly when packet encryption fails
406
4072018-05-23
408
409    - [BUGFIX] Do not produce packet sequence gaps due to delayed packets
410
4112018-05-21
412
413    - [API Change] Add optional callback to call when handshake is done
414    - [API Change, BUGFIX] After send failure, wait until transport available
415
4162018-05-18
417
418    - [API] Expose useful lsquic_ver2str[] in lsquic.h
419    - [BUGFIX] Do not produce packet sequence gaps due to STREAM frame elision
420    - Improve checks of number of incoming streams limit and associated
421      error reporting.
422    - [BUGFIX] Command-line option `-6` now works correctly.
423
4242018-05-16
425
426    - [FEATURE] DNS resolution
427    - [BUGFIX] Frame insertion mis-ID as overlap instead of dup
428    - http_client: fix priority range generated by -E flag
429
4302018-05-09
431
432    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q043.
433    - Support for versions Q037, Q038, Q041, and Q042 has been removed.
434    - Fix typo in debug message.
435    - Fix code indentation.
436    - Add /* fallthru */ comment to stop newer gcc from complaining.
437    - Logger: fix compilation of optimized Windows build.
438
4392018-05-04
440
441    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q042.
442    - Remove comment: MSPC is obsolete (no code changes)
443    - Prog: use lsquic_str2ver() when processing -o version flag
444    - Remove unused CTIM and SRBF transport parameters
445    - Disable QUIC versions Q037 and Q038 by default
446    - Fix Windows compilation by including compat header file in
447      lshpack.c

477           they can be sent out.
478        2. A connection is tickable if there are streams on the servicing
479           queue.  When the tick occurs, we must service the stream
480           independent of whether any packets are sent.

502    [API Change, OPTIMIZATION] Only process conns that need to be processed
503
504    The API is simplified: do not expose the user code to several
505    queues.  A "connection queue" is now an internal concept.
506    The user processes connections using the single function
507    lsquic_engine_process_conns().  When this function is called,
508    only those connections are processed that need to be processed.
509    A connection needs to be processed when:
510
511        1. New incoming packets have been fed to the connection.
512        2. User wants to read from a stream that is readable.
513        3. User wants to write to a stream that is writeable.
514        4. There are buffered packets that can be sent out.  (This
515           means that the user wrote to a stream outside of the
516           lsquic library callback.)
517        5. A control frame (such as BLOCKED) needs to be sent out.
518        6. A stream needs to be serviced or delayed stream needs to
519           be created.
520        7. An alarm rings.
521        8. Pacer timer expires.
522
523    To achieve this, the library places the connections into two
524    priority queues (min heaps):
525
526        1. Tickable Queue; and
527        2. Advisory Tick Time queue (ATTQ).
528
529    Each time lsquic_engine_process_conns() is called, the Tickable
530    Queue is emptied.  After the connections have been ticked, they are
531    queried again: if a connection is not being closed, it is placed
532    either in the Tickable Queue if it is ready to be ticked again or
533    it is placed in the Advisory Tick Time Queue.  It is assumed that
534    a connection always has at least one timer set (the idle alarm).
535
536    The connections in the Tickable Queue are arranged in the least
537    recently ticked order.  This lets connections that have been quiet
538    longer to get their packets scheduled first.
539
540    This change means that the library no longer needs to be ticked
541    periodically.  The user code can query the library when is the
542    next tick event and schedule it exactly.  When connections are
543    processed, only the tickable connections are processed, not *all*
544    the connections.  When there are no tick events, it means that no
545    timer event is necessary -- only the file descriptor READ event
546    is active.
547
548    The following are improvements and simplifications that have
549    been triggered:
550
551        - Queue of connections with incoming packets is gone.
552        - "Pending Read/Write Events" Queue is gone (along with its
553          history and progress checks).  This queue has become the
554          Tickable Queue.
555        - The connection hash no longer needs to track the connection
556          insertion order.

565
566    - [OPTIMIZATION] Merge series of ACKs if possible
567
568      Parsed single-range ACK frames (that is the majority of frames) are
569      saved in the connection and their processing is deferred until the
570      connection is ticked.  If several ACKs come in a series between
571      adjacent ticks, we check whether the latest ACK is a strict superset
572      of the saved ACK.  If it is, the older ACK is not processed.
573
574      If ACK frames can be merged, they are merged and only one of them is
575      either processed or saved.
576
577    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up ACK verification by simplifying send history.
578
579      Never generate a gap in the sent packet number sequence.  This reduces
580      the send history to a single number instead of potentially a series of
581      packet ranges and thereby speeds up ACK verification.
582
583      By default, detecting a gap in the send history is not fatal: only a
584      single warning is generated per connection.  The connection can continue
585      to operate even if the ACK verification code is not able to detect some
586      inconsistencies.
587
588    - [OPTIMIZATION] Rearrange the lsquic_send_ctl struct
589
590      The first part of struct lsquic_send_ctl now consists of members that
591      are used in lsquic_send_ctl_got_ack() (in the absense of packet loss,
592      which is the normal case).  To speed up reads and writes, we no longer
593      try to save space by using 8- and 16-bit integers.  Use regular integer
594      width for everything.
595
596    - [OPTIMIZATION] Cache size of sent packet.
597
598    - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of the largest ACKed in packet_out
599
600      Instead of parsing our own ACK frames when packet has been acked,
601      use the value saved in the packet_out structure when the ACK frame
602      was generated.
603
604    - [OPTIMIZATION] Take RTT sampling conditional out of ACK loop
605
606    - [OPTIMIZATION] ACK processing: only call clock_gettime() if needed
607
608    - [OPTIMIZATION] Several code-level optimizations to ACK processing.

655
6562017-10-31
657
658    - [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone.  The stream no
659      longer opens files and deals with file descriptors.  (Among other
660      things, this makes the code more portable.)  Three writing functions
661      are provided:
662
663        lsquic_stream_write
664        lsquic_stream_writev
665        lsquic_stream_writef    (NEW)
666
667      lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function
668      pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement.
669      This is the most flexible way.  lsquic_stream_write() and
670      lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around
671      lsquic_stream_writef().
672
673    - [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the
674      on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer,
675      bypassing auxiliary data structures.  This reduces amount of memory
676      required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited
677      by the congestion window.
678
679      To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N
680      outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to
681      by any stream.  One half of these are reserved for the highest
682      priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams.  This way,
683      low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams
684      and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send
685      their packets out.
686
687      The algorithm is as follows:
688
689      - When user writes to stream outside of the callback:
690        - If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the
691          reserved N/2 queue or fail.
692            (The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) --
693             rather than N/2, allowing high-priority streams to write as
694             much as can be sent.)
695        - If the stream is not the highest priority, try to place the
696          data onto the reserved N/2 queue or fail.
697      - When tick occurs *and* more packets can be scheduled:
698        - Transfer packets from the high N/2 queue to the scheduled
699          queue.
700        - If more scheduling is allowed:
701          - Call on_write callbacks for highest-priority streams,
702            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue.
703        - If more scheduling is allowed:
704          - Transfer packets from the low N/2 queue to the scheduled
705            queue.
706        - If more scheduling is allowed:
707          - Call on_write callbacks for non-highest-priority streams,
708            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue
709
710      The number N is currently 20, but it could be varied based on
711      resource usage.
712
713    - If stream is created due to incoming headers, make headers readable
714      from on_new.
715
716    - Outgoing packets are no longer marked non-writeable to prevent placing
717      more than one STREAM frame from the same stream into a single packet.
718      This property is maintained via code flow and an explicit check.
719      Packets for stream data are allocated using a special function.
720
721    - STREAM frame elision is cheaper, as we only perform it if a reset
722      stream has outgoing packets referencing it.
723
724    - lsquic_packet_out_t is smaller, as stream_rec elements are now
725      inside a union.
