CHANGELOG revision b1a7c3f9
12020-09-15
2    - 2.20.0
3    - [FEATURE] QUIC and HTTP/3 Internet Draft 30 support.
4    - [FEATURE] Unreliable Datagram Extension support.
5    - [FEATURE] Adaptive congestion controller.
6    - [BUGFIX] Do not send MAX_STREAM_DATA frames on crypto streams.
7    - [BUGFIX] Fail with CRYPTO_BUFFER_EXCEEDED when too much CRYPTO
8      data comes in.
9    - [BUFFIX] Spin bit is now strictly per path; value is reset on
10      DCID change.
11    - [BUGFIX] Check that max value of max_streams_uni and
12      max_streams_bidi TPs is 2^60.
13    - [BUGFIX] Close IETF mini conn immediately if crypto session
14      cannot be initialized.
15    - Deprecate ID-28 (no browser uses it): it's no longer in the
16      default versions list.
17    - New programs duck_server and duck_client that implement the
18      experimental siduck-00 protocol.  They quack!
19    - IETF crypto streams: don't limit ourselves from sending.
20    - Command-line programs: turn off QL loss bits if -G is used, as
21      Wireshark cannot decrypt QUIC packets when this extension is used.
22    - Turn all h3 framing unit tests back on.
23    - Fix malo initialization when compiled in no-pool mode.
24
252020-09-08
26    - 2.19.10

28      reduce the number of system calls required to read a file from disk
29      by using lsquic_stream_pwritev() together with preadv(2).
30    - [BUGFIX] When stream is reset, it is writeable -- let user collect
31      the error.
32    - [BUGFIX] Calculate correct conn flow control if reading ends early.
33    - [BUGFIX] Remove stream from read and write queues on internal
34      shutdown.  This is a regression introduced in 2.19.7.
35    - [BUGFIX] Swapped arguments in IETF RESET_FRAME generation.
36    - Turn off mini conn history when compiling with Visual Studio; this
37      allows the project to compile on Windows again.
38    - http_client: Add -3 flag to stop reading from streams early; code
39      cleanup.
40    - Don't use -Werror.
41

63    - Improve logic whether to generate CONNECTION_CLOSE.
64
652020-08-20

76    - 2.19.4
77    - [BUGFIX] Do not return an oversize MTU probe to connection twice.
78    - [FEATURE] Delayed Acks updated to latest draft.  Still experimental.

93      maximum packet size, improving throughput.
94    - [DEBUG] Record event in stream history when on_close() is called
95      in dtor.
96

110
1112020-07-06
112    - 2.18.0
113    - [API] Rename "0-RTT" to "session resumption." In IETF QUIC, "0-RTT"
114      always refers to early data, meaning a request that the server can
115      reply to in the very first return flight.  A more appropriate name
116      for what we support on the client site is "session resumption," which
117      is standard TLS terminology.  Later, when we add support for 0-RTT
118      (early data), we can use the 0-RTT terminology again, this time in
119      proper context.

138    - [BUGFIX] Don't count scheduled packets as in-flight when pacer is
139      checked on tick.
140    - gQUIC: delay calling on_new for pushed stream until headers are
141      available.

434      GitHub bug #94.
435    - Use Cubic by default again instead of BBR, as it delivers more
436      consistent performance.
437
4382019-12-11
439    - 2.7.2
440    - [BUGFIX] Send controller: update scheduled bytes when DCID length
441      changes (IETF client).
442    - [BUGFIX] Drop alarm check from sanity test.  It no longer works now
443      that we use loss chains.
444    - [PORTABILITY] Fix build on Alpine Linux.
445    - [PORTABILITY] Fix build using XCode.
446    - Client initial DCID length: use RAND_bytes() instead of rand(3).
447    - Add unit tests for connection min heap.
448    - [DEBUG] Log CID in gQUIC handshake module
449    - [DEBUG] Turn on extra checks for IETF client send controller.
450    - [DEBUG] Dedup next advisory tick messages when reason is IDLE timer.
451    - [DEBUG] QPACK decoder handler: log header error code.
452
4532019-12-05
454    - 2.7.1
455    - [BUGFIX] client: don't call ignore_init() in middle of batch send.
456      ignore_init() makes an assumption that the send controller has access
457      to all outgoing packets.  This change wraps a few IETF full connection
458      methods to delay calling ignore_init() until the engine returns all
459      outgoing packets that were batched.
460    - [BUGFIX] set errno to EAGAIN if sendmmsg() can't send all of them.
461      This needs to be done because the value of errno may be lost on
462      some platforms.
463    - [BUGFIX] Typo that set all bits in sm_qflags lead to crashes.
464    - [BUGFIX] Do not cancel header block processing after failure, as
465      QPACK releases the reference in that case.
466    - [CLEANUP] IETF encrypt: replace assert(0) with a warning.
467    - Several small improvements to the test server.
468
4692019-11-27
470    - 2.7.0
471    - [API, FEATURE] Close connection immediately when ea_packets_out()
472      fails with errno != EAGAIN.  The API change is that errno is now
473      examined.  Make sure to set it if using something other than
474      sendmsg() to send packets.
475    - [CLEANUP] Immediate close logic in IETF full conn.
476    - [CLEANUP] Fix bogus warning about uninitialized `pair' variable.
477
4782019-11-22
479    - 2.6.7

484
4852019-11-20
486    - 2.6.6
487    - [BUGFIX] Using HTTP/3 to HTTP/1.x converter.

4992019-11-11
500    - 2.6.2
501    - [BUGFIX] SCID!=ODCID rule applies to Retry packets, not regular
502      packets.
503    - [BUGFIX] Zero-RTT: BoringSSL no longer flips read/write secrets.
504    - [BUGFIX] Truncate ACK frame rather instead of aborting IETF
505      connection.
506    - [BUGFIX] Client: don't send duplicate reset tokens.
507    - [BUGFIX] Remove invalid assertion in H3 framing code.
508    - Silence a warning in send ctl by restructuring switch() statement.
509
5102019-11-08
511    - 2.6.1
512    - [BUGFIX] set retry token on all resubmitted packets.
513    - Event log: log sent packet flags.  In particular, this allows one
514      to see whether token was sent.
515    - Don't migrate client if es_allow_migration is false.

523    - [BUGFIX] argument order to gQUIC client constructor.  Regression
524      introduced in 2.5.0.
525    - [BUGFIX] split buffered packet error recovery: destroy the correct
526      packet.
527
5282019-11-04
529    - 2.5.1
530    - [BUGFIX] Fix double-free when emptying a packet number space.
531    - [BUGFIX] http_server: fix md5sum handler: handle EOF correctly.
532    - [BUGFIX] Use random values in bits 4 and 5 of the first byte of
533      verneg packets (regression introduced in 2.5.0).
534    - [OPTIMIZATION] Don't compile in expensive attq checks by default.
535    - [OPTIMIZATION] http_server: compile regexes only once.
536
5372019-10-31
538    - 2.5.0
539    - [API] lsquic_engine_connect() can now be passed QUIC version to use.
540    - [OPTIMIZATION] Queue opportunistic ACKs if there is data to be sent.
541    - [BUGFIX] Don't evict streams from priority iterator if there is

547    - 2.4.10
548    - [BUGFIX] IETF QUIC server: fix uninitialized variable use.
549    - [BUGFIX] make sure TLSv1.3 is not disabled in SSL object.
550    - [BUGFIX] Use issuer name and serial number to cache certs (SKID
551      values are not unique).
552    - [BUGFIX] Always set the idle alarm in IETF connection so that it
553      can time out.
554    - Use ls-qpack v0.10.6, as it silences some warnings.
555
5562019-10-21
557    - 2.4.8
558    - [OPTIMIZATION, BUGFIX] Use ls-qpack v0.10.5.
559
5602019-10-15
561    - 2.4.7
562    - Add echo client and server to the distibution.
563    - Add MD5 client and server to the distibution.
564    - Fix http_client: check command-line arguments better, prevent crash.
565    - Fix IETF conn: can_write_ack() should only care about APP PNS.
566    - Client: delay stream creation until handshake succeds.
567    - Reset HTTP stream whose write end is closed prematurely.
568    - Fix tickable(): mirror behavior of tick() wrt buffered packets.
569    - Log reason why engine is tickable.
570
5712019-10-11
572    - 2.4.6
573    - Minor code cleanup and logging improvements.

586    - [API] Add lsquic_alpn2ver() to aid parsing Alt-Svc header.
587    - [BUGFIX] NULL dereference when H3 frame header would be split.
588    - [BUGFIX] Do not close fixed-size H3 frame prematurely.
589    - [BUGFIX] Allow PING frames in IETF mini conn.
590    - [BUGFIX] Mini conns: don't send any packets after receiving
591      CONNECTION_CLOSE.
592    - [BUGFIX] Client migration: reserve slot for DCID from transport params.
593    - [BUGFIX] Allow max_early_data_size=0 -- early_data might not be there.
594    - [BUGFIX] Use an invalid stream number to reset BPT cache (zero is now a
595      valid stream number).
596    - [SPEC] Use FINAL_SIZE_ERROR when FIN mismatch is detected.
597    - [OPTIMIZATION] Closed connection only gets one chance to send packets.
598    - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers stream before packetizing stream data.
599    - [OPTIMIZATION] process QPACK encoder STREAM frames immediately.
600    - Update ls-qpack to v0.10.1.
601
6022019-09-30
603    - 2.4.3
604    - Add GQUIC versions to the list of h3 ALPNs for Alt-Svc header.
605      For example, h3-Q043.  Chrome will switch to using this format at
606      some point in the future.
607    - [BUGFIX] Send correct value in max_streams_uni transport param
608    - [SPEC] Abort IETF QUIC connection if max_early_data_size is not set
609      to 0xFFFFFFFF
610

612    - 2.4.2
613    - [BUGFIX] H3 framing: fix zero-byte write when space is available

616    - [BUGFIX] Cancel all pending writes by stream reset by a GOAWAY
617    - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free in IETF full conn

656
6572019-04-01
658    - 1.20.0
659    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q046.
660
6612019-03-19
662    - 1.19.6
663    - [BUGFIX] Ensure that Largest Observed does not decrease in ACKs we
664      send.  ACK frames placed in packets in buffered queues (optimization
665      introduced in 1.17.15) can be preceded by an ACK frame generated later.
666      In this case, the older ACK frame should not be sent out, as Chromium-
667      based servers flags decrease in the ACK frame's Largest Observed value
668      as an error.
669
6702019-03-05
671    - 1.19.5
672    - [BUGFIX] Use correct public key from PUBS based on KEXS index.
673    - [BUGFIX] Check flags before dispatching writes, avoiding assert.
674    - [BUGFIX] Set :scheme to "https" (instead of "HTTP").
675
6762019-02-25
677    - 1.19.4
678    - [BUGFIX] Check buffer bounds when looking up version in 0-RTT blob.
679    - [BUGFIX] http_client: don't fetch 0-rtt info if handshake failed.
680    - Log number of pacer calls at DEBUG, rather than NOTICE, level.
681
6822019-02-18
683    - 1.19.3
684    - [BUGFIX] Q044: don't encode packet number in 6 bytes.  Six-byte
685      packet number encoding does not exist in Q044.  This fixes a
686      regression introduced in '[BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain
687      ACK frames' -- we need to keep QUIC version in mind when selecting
688      the longest possible packet number encoding used for the buffered
689      packet that carries the ACK.
690    - [BUGFIX] Do not increase CWND when timeout occurs.
691    - http_client: support setting handshake timeout on command line.
692      Use -o handshake_to=timeout.
693    - http_client: use -k to connect UDP socket to pick up ICMP errors.
694    - http_client: allow pathless mode, when only handshake is performed
695      without issuing any requests.  This can be done by simply not
696      specifying a -p flag on the command line.
697
6982019-02-11
699    - 1.19.2
700    - [BUGFIX] Begin negotiation with version provided in 0-RTT info.

702
7032019-02-04
704    - 1.19.1
705    - [BUGFIX] Fix Windows build.
706
7072019-02-04
708    - 1.19.0
709    - [FEATURE, API Change] 0-RTT support.  Add function to export 0-RTT
710      information; it can be supplied to a subsequent connect() call.
711    - [FEATURE] Add -0 flag to http_client to exercise 0-RTT support.
712    - [BUGFIX] Resuscitate the Windows build.
713    - [BUGFIX] Send HTTP settings (max header list size) if necessary.
714    - [BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain ACK frames.
715    - [BUGFIX] Make packet writeable once all STREAM frames are elided.
716    - [BUGFIX] Fix potential null dereference when realloc fails.
717    - cmake: simplify build configuration.
718
7192019-01-28
720    - 1.18.0
721    - [API Change] Can specify clock granularity in engine settings.
722    - [BUGFIX] Pacer uses fixed clock granularity.  Since the change on
723      2018-04-09, it is not necessary to try to approximate the next tick
724      time in the pacer: it can use fix clock granularity specified by
725      the user.
726    - [BUGFIX] Do not tick constantly before handshake is done.
727    - [BUGFIX] Do not exit tick prematurely: reuse packet with ACK.  Even
728      if we cannot allocate *more* packets, we could still be able to write
729      to one already allocated.
730    - [BUGFIX] Do not schedule pacer if there are no lost packets.
731
7322019-01-17
733    - 1.17.15
734    - [BUGFIX] http_client: make sure only one read per on_read() callback
735      is performed in the header conversion bypass (-B) mode.
736    - http_client: with -E, assign random priority when stream is created.
737    - [OPTIMIZATION] On immediate write, place an ACK frame into the first
738      buffered packet if an ACK is queued.  This reduces the number of
739      standalone ACK packets.
740    - [OPTIMIZATION] Allow placing more than one STREAM frame from the same
741      stream into an outgoing packet.  This change minimizes the number of
742      buffered packets required to store several small HTTP messages by
743      virtue of allowing more than one STREAM frame from HEADERS stream in
744      the same packet.
745    - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers when writing to buffered packets.  This
746      causes the headers to be written to the same buffered packet queue,
747      thereby improving packet utilization, especially for small HTTP
748      messages.
749
7502019-01-16
751    - 1.17.14
752    - [FEATURE] http_client can now collect stats: time to connect, TTFB,
753      time to download, requests per seconds, and bandwidth.  See -t flag.
754    - [BUGFIX] http_client: -B, -K, and -r can be used at the same time.
755    - [BUGFIX] http_client: do not display cert chain before each request.
756      Now this is only done once per connection, if the handshake is
757      successful and -a option is given.
758    - [BUGFIX] Do not wait to dispatch on_close() after reading.  If a
759      stream is scheduled to be closed after on_read() callback returns,
760      close it immediately instead of waiting until the end of the tick.
761      If client creates new request from on_close() event, they will be
762      processed in the same tick instead of waiting for the next one.
763    - [BUGFIX] HEADERS stream is critical: always treat it with highest
764      priority.
765
7662019-01-10
767    - 1.17.12
768    - [FEATURE] http_client can now issue parallel requests in the context
769      of a single connection.  See -w option.
770
7712019-01-03
772    - 1.17.11

785    - 1.17.8
786    - [BUGFIX] Fix compilation on FreeBSD and 32-bit Linux
787
7882018-12-03
789    - 1.17.7
790    - [BUGFIX] Do not unset PING alarm before ringing expired alarms.
791      This prevented PING from ever being sent.
792
7932018-11-29
794    - 1.17.6
795    - Add failsafe: resume sending packets after some time
796
797      The change puts a 1-second limit on the amount of time the engine
798      will not send packets after some packets are delayed.  This makes
799      the library robust in case the user does not unblock the engine
800      explicitly using lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() call.
801
802    - [BUGFIX] Handle corner cases in send controller when packets are
803      a) delayed or b) dropped during repackaging.
804    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak: destroy buffered packets during controller
805      cleanup.
806
8072018-11-16
808    - 1.17.3
809    - [BUGFIX] Do not send STOP_WAITING frames when using Q044
810
8112018-10-19
812    - 1.17.2
813    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak in test_frame_rw unit test.
814    - [BUGFIX] Parsing packets with short IETF header: do not overwrite
815      flags.  (Only a problem in unit tests -- benign otherwise.)
816
8172018-10-16
818    - 1.17.0
819    - [API Change] Packet out Memory Interface (PMI) update:
820      - Split PMI pool return into pmi_release and pmi_return
821      - PMI callbacks take peer_ctx and is_ipv6 arguments
822    - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free when certificate is updated
823    - Silence gcc warning in optimized mode by performing useless
824      initialization
825    - cmake: use the standard variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE instead of
826      DEVEL_MODE
827

829    - 1.16.0
830    - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_n_avail_streams()

837
8382018-09-12
839    - 1.14.3
840    - [BUGFIX] Do not abort conn on STREAM frame for a reset stream
841    - [BUGFIX] Drop packets that would become empty due to repackaging.
842      Packets on the scheduled queue may be marked for repackaging.
843      Frames such as ACK frame that are never resent are removed from
844      repackaged packets.  We must check that the newly repackaged packet
845      would not be empty.  If it would be, it is destroyed instead and
846      the next packet on the scheduled queue is used.  Note that this
847      change only affects the logic to return the next packet to be sent.
848      Lost packets that are being rescheduled are already processed in
849      this fashion.
850    - Byteswap CID before logging it - this makes it match Chrome CIDs.
851      (Except Q035, which is the last little-endian GQUIC version we

1013           they can be sent out.
1014        2. A connection is tickable if there are streams on the servicing
1015           queue.  When the tick occurs, we must service the stream
1016           independent of whether any packets are sent.

1037
1038    [API Change, OPTIMIZATION] Only process conns that need to be processed
1039
1040    The API is simplified: do not expose the user code to several
1041    queues.  A "connection queue" is now an internal concept.
1042    The user processes connections using the single function
1043    lsquic_engine_process_conns().  When this function is called,
1044    only those connections are processed that need to be processed.
1045    A connection needs to be processed when:
1046
1047        1. New incoming packets have been fed to the connection.
1048        2. User wants to read from a stream that is readable.
1049        3. User wants to write to a stream that is writeable.
1050        4. There are buffered packets that can be sent out.  (This
1051           means that the user wrote to a stream outside of the
1052           lsquic library callback.)
1053        5. A control frame (such as BLOCKED) needs to be sent out.
1054        6. A stream needs to be serviced or delayed stream needs to
1055           be created.
1056        7. An alarm rings.
1057        8. Pacer timer expires.
1058
1059    To achieve this, the library places the connections into two
1060    priority queues (min heaps):
1061
1062        1. Tickable Queue; and
1063        2. Advisory Tick Time queue (ATTQ).
1064
1065    Each time lsquic_engine_process_conns() is called, the Tickable
1066    Queue is emptied.  After the connections have been ticked, they are
1067    queried again: if a connection is not being closed, it is placed
1068    either in the Tickable Queue if it is ready to be ticked again or
1069    it is placed in the Advisory Tick Time Queue.  It is assumed that
1070    a connection always has at least one timer set (the idle alarm).
1071
1072    The connections in the Tickable Queue are arranged in the least
1073    recently ticked order.  This lets connections that have been quiet
1074    longer to get their packets scheduled first.
1075
1076    This change means that the library no longer needs to be ticked
1077    periodically.  The user code can query the library when is the
1078    next tick event and schedule it exactly.  When connections are
1079    processed, only the tickable connections are processed, not *all*
1080    the connections.  When there are no tick events, it means that no
1081    timer event is necessary -- only the file descriptor READ event
1082    is active.
1083
1084    The following are improvements and simplifications that have
1085    been triggered:
1086
1087        - Queue of connections with incoming packets is gone.
1088        - "Pending Read/Write Events" Queue is gone (along with its
1089          history and progress checks).  This queue has become the
1090          Tickable Queue.
1091        - The connection hash no longer needs to track the connection
1092          insertion order.

11002018-03-09
1101
1102    - [OPTIMIZATION] Merge series of ACKs if possible
1103
1104      Parsed single-range ACK frames (that is the majority of frames) are
1105      saved in the connection and their processing is deferred until the
1106      connection is ticked.  If several ACKs come in a series between
1107      adjacent ticks, we check whether the latest ACK is a strict superset
1108      of the saved ACK.  If it is, the older ACK is not processed.
1109
1110      If ACK frames can be merged, they are merged and only one of them is
1111      either processed or saved.
1112
1113    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up ACK verification by simplifying send history.
1114
1115      Never generate a gap in the sent packet number sequence.  This reduces
1116      the send history to a single number instead of potentially a series of
1117      packet ranges and thereby speeds up ACK verification.
1118
1119      By default, detecting a gap in the send history is not fatal: only a
1120      single warning is generated per connection.  The connection can continue
1121      to operate even if the ACK verification code is not able to detect some
1122      inconsistencies.
1123
1124    - [OPTIMIZATION] Rearrange the lsquic_send_ctl struct
1125
1126      The first part of struct lsquic_send_ctl now consists of members that
1127      are used in lsquic_send_ctl_got_ack() (in the absense of packet loss,
1128      which is the normal case).  To speed up reads and writes, we no longer
1129      try to save space by using 8- and 16-bit integers.  Use regular integer
1130      width for everything.
1131
1132    - [OPTIMIZATION] Cache size of sent packet.
1133
1134    - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of the largest ACKed in packet_out
1135
1136      Instead of parsing our own ACK frames when packet has been acked,
1137      use the value saved in the packet_out structure when the ACK frame
1138      was generated.
1139
1140    - [OPTIMIZATION] Take RTT sampling conditional out of ACK loop
1141
1142    - [OPTIMIZATION] ACK processing: only call clock_gettime() if needed

1189
1190    - Add APIs.txt -- describes LSQUIC APIs
1191
11922017-10-31
1193
1194    - [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone.  The stream no
1195      longer opens files and deals with file descriptors.  (Among other
1196      things, this makes the code more portable.)  Three writing functions
1197      are provided:
1198
1199        lsquic_stream_write
1200        lsquic_stream_writev
1201        lsquic_stream_writef    (NEW)
1202
1203      lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function
1204      pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement.
1205      This is the most flexible way.  lsquic_stream_write() and
1206      lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around
1207      lsquic_stream_writef().
1208
1209    - [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the
1210      on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer,
1211      bypassing auxiliary data structures.  This reduces amount of memory
1212      required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited
1213      by the congestion window.
1214
1215      To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N
1216      outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to
1217      by any stream.  One half of these are reserved for the highest
1218      priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams.  This way,
1219      low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams
1220      and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send
1221      their packets out.
1222
1223      The algorithm is as follows:
1224
1225      - When user writes to stream outside of the callback:
1226        - If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the
1227          reserved N/2 queue or fail.
1228            (The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) --
1229             rather than N/2, allowing high-priority streams to write as
1230             much as can be sent.)
1231        - If the stream is not the highest priority, try to place the
1232          data onto the reserved N/2 queue or fail.
1233      - When tick occurs *and* more packets can be scheduled:
1234        - Transfer packets from the high N/2 queue to the scheduled
1235          queue.
1236        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1237          - Call on_write callbacks for highest-priority streams,
1238            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue.
1239        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1240          - Transfer packets from the low N/2 queue to the scheduled
1241            queue.
1242        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1243          - Call on_write callbacks for non-highest-priority streams,
1244            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue
1245
1246      The number N is currently 20, but it could be varied based on
1247      resource usage.
1248
1249    - If stream is created due to incoming headers, make headers readable
1250      from on_new.
1251
1252    - Outgoing packets are no longer marked non-writeable to prevent placing
1253      more than one STREAM frame from the same stream into a single packet.
1254      This property is maintained via code flow and an explicit check.
1255      Packets for stream data are allocated using a special function.
1256
1257    - STREAM frame elision is cheaper, as we only perform it if a reset
1258      stream has outgoing packets referencing it.
1259
1260    - lsquic_packet_out_t is smaller, as stream_rec elements are now
1261      inside a union.
