CHANGELOG revision b329a00e
12020-07-22
2    - 2.18.2
3    - [BUGFIX] Send prediction: lone path challenges do not get squeezed out
4    - Fix crash in http_client: now -K and -B can be used simultaneously
5
62020-07-14
7    - 2.18.1
8    - [FEATURE] Implement the "QUIC bit grease" extension.
9    - [BUGFIX] Selecting CID used for logging on client.
10    - [BUGFIX] Header protection assertion.
11    - [BUGFIX] Server: enable SSL key logging when cert lookup callback
12      is not set.
13    - Remove some dead code.
14
152020-07-06
16    - 2.18.0
17    - [API] Rename "0-RTT" to "session resumption." In IETF QUIC, "0-RTT"
18      always refers to early data, meaning a request that the server can
19      reply to in the very first return flight.  A more appropriate name
20      for what we support on the client site is "session resumption," which
21      is standard TLS terminology.  Later, when we add support for 0-RTT
22      (early data), we can use the 0-RTT terminology again, this time in
23      proper context.
24    - [BUGFIX] Do not set certificate callback if ea_lookup_cert is NULL.
25    - [BUGFIX] Make connection tickable when it's marked as closed.

340      consistent performance.
341
3422019-12-11
343    - 2.7.2
344    - [BUGFIX] Send controller: update scheduled bytes when DCID length
345      changes (IETF client).

347      that we use loss chains.
348    - [PORTABILITY] Fix build on Alpine Linux.

3572019-12-05
358    - 2.7.1
359    - [BUGFIX] client: don't call ignore_init() in middle of batch send.
360      ignore_init() makes an assumption that the send controller has access
361      to all outgoing packets.  This change wraps a few IETF full connection
362      methods to delay calling ignore_init() until the engine returns all
363      outgoing packets that were batched.
364    - [BUGFIX] set errno to EAGAIN if sendmmsg() can't send all of them.
365      This needs to be done because the value of errno may be lost on
366      some platforms.
367    - [BUGFIX] Typo that set all bits in sm_qflags lead to crashes.
368    - [BUGFIX] Do not cancel header block processing after failure, as

374    - 2.7.0
375    - [API, FEATURE] Close connection immediately when ea_packets_out()
376      fails with errno != EAGAIN.  The API change is that errno is now
377      examined.  Make sure to set it if using something other than
378      sendmsg() to send packets.
379    - [CLEANUP] Immediate close logic in IETF full conn.
380    - [CLEANUP] Fix bogus warning about uninitialized `pair' variable.

406      packets.
407    - [BUGFIX] Zero-RTT: BoringSSL no longer flips read/write secrets.
408    - [BUGFIX] Truncate ACK frame rather instead of aborting IETF
409      connection.
410    - [BUGFIX] Client: don't send duplicate reset tokens.
411    - [BUGFIX] Remove invalid assertion in H3 framing code.
412    - Silence a warning in send ctl by restructuring switch() statement.

436    - [BUGFIX] Use random values in bits 4 and 5 of the first byte of
437      verneg packets (regression introduced in 2.5.0).
438    - [OPTIMIZATION] Don't compile in expensive attq checks by default.
439    - [OPTIMIZATION] http_server: compile regexes only once.
440
4412019-10-31
442    - 2.5.0
443    - [API] lsquic_engine_connect() can now be passed QUIC version to use.
444    - [OPTIMIZATION] Queue opportunistic ACKs if there is data to be sent.

4502019-10-24
451    - 2.4.10
452    - [BUGFIX] IETF QUIC server: fix uninitialized variable use.
453    - [BUGFIX] make sure TLSv1.3 is not disabled in SSL object.
454    - [BUGFIX] Use issuer name and serial number to cache certs (SKID
455      values are not unique).
456    - [BUGFIX] Always set the idle alarm in IETF connection so that it
457      can time out.
458    - Use ls-qpack v0.10.6, as it silences some warnings.
459
4602019-10-21
461    - 2.4.8
462    - [OPTIMIZATION, BUGFIX] Use ls-qpack v0.10.5.
463
4642019-10-15
465    - 2.4.7
466    - Add echo client and server to the distibution.
467    - Add MD5 client and server to the distibution.
468    - Fix http_client: check command-line arguments better, prevent crash.
469    - Fix IETF conn: can_write_ack() should only care about APP PNS.
470    - Client: delay stream creation until handshake succeds.
471    - Reset HTTP stream whose write end is closed prematurely.
472    - Fix tickable(): mirror behavior of tick() wrt buffered packets.
473    - Log reason why engine is tickable.
474
4752019-10-11
476    - 2.4.6
477    - Minor code cleanup and logging improvements.
478    - Server and client programs: include library version (e.g. 2.4.6)
479      into `server' and `user-agent' headers.
480
4812019-10-08
482    - 2.4.5
483    - [OPTIMIZATION]: flush encoder stream only when necessary.
484    - [BUGFIX] Use ls-qpack v0.10.2 for new API -- and for a bug fix.
485    - [BUGFIX] Typo in IETF conn SETTINGS writer.
486    - Use latest BoringSSL.
487
4882019-10-08
489    - 2.4.4
490    - [API] Add lsquic_alpn2ver() to aid parsing Alt-Svc header.
491    - [BUGFIX] NULL dereference when H3 frame header would be split.
492    - [BUGFIX] Do not close fixed-size H3 frame prematurely.
493    - [BUGFIX] Allow PING frames in IETF mini conn.
494    - [BUGFIX] Mini conns: don't send any packets after receiving
495      CONNECTION_CLOSE.
496    - [BUGFIX] Client migration: reserve slot for DCID from transport params.
497    - [BUGFIX] Allow max_early_data_size=0 -- early_data might not be there.
498    - [BUGFIX] Use an invalid stream number to reset BPT cache (zero is now a
499      valid stream number).
500    - [SPEC] Use FINAL_SIZE_ERROR when FIN mismatch is detected.
501    - [OPTIMIZATION] Closed connection only gets one chance to send packets.
502    - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers stream before packetizing stream data.
503    - [OPTIMIZATION] process QPACK encoder STREAM frames immediately.
504    - Update ls-qpack to v0.10.1.
505
5062019-09-30
507    - 2.4.3
508    - Add GQUIC versions to the list of h3 ALPNs for Alt-Svc header.
509      For example, h3-Q043.  Chrome will switch to using this format at
510      some point in the future.
511    - [BUGFIX] Send correct value in max_streams_uni transport param
512    - [SPEC] Abort IETF QUIC connection if max_early_data_size is not set
513      to 0xFFFFFFFF
514
5152019-09-23
516    - 2.4.2
517    - [BUGFIX] H3 framing: fix zero-byte write when space is available
518    - [BUGFIX] Don't send STREAM frame when incoming unidirectgional stream
519      is closed
520    - [BUGFIX] Cancel all pending writes by stream reset by a GOAWAY
521    - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free in IETF full conn

523      SSL object and crypto streams.
524
5252019-09-18
526    - 2.4.0

546
5472019-05-13
548    - 1.21.2
549    - [OPTIMIZATION] HPACK: use history to improve compression performance
550
5512019-05-06
552    - 1.21.1
553    - [BUGFIX] If FIN or RST not received, don't delay stream destruction.
554    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up HPACK encoder by using same hash value to
555      search static and dynamic tables.
556
5572019-04-12
558    - 1.21.0
559    - [FEATURE] Add qlog log module.
560
5612019-04-01
562    - 1.20.0
563    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q046.
564
5652019-03-19
566    - 1.19.6
567    - [BUGFIX] Ensure that Largest Observed does not decrease in ACKs we
568      send.  ACK frames placed in packets in buffered queues (optimization
569      introduced in 1.17.15) can be preceded by an ACK frame generated later.
570      In this case, the older ACK frame should not be sent out, as Chromium-
571      based servers flags decrease in the ACK frame's Largest Observed value
572      as an error.
573
5742019-03-05
575    - 1.19.5
576    - [BUGFIX] Use correct public key from PUBS based on KEXS index.
577    - [BUGFIX] Check flags before dispatching writes, avoiding assert.
578    - [BUGFIX] Set :scheme to "https" (instead of "HTTP").
579
5802019-02-25
581    - 1.19.4
582    - [BUGFIX] Check buffer bounds when looking up version in 0-RTT blob.
583    - [BUGFIX] http_client: don't fetch 0-rtt info if handshake failed.
584    - Log number of pacer calls at DEBUG, rather than NOTICE, level.
585
5862019-02-18
587    - 1.19.3
588    - [BUGFIX] Q044: don't encode packet number in 6 bytes.  Six-byte
589      packet number encoding does not exist in Q044.  This fixes a
590      regression introduced in '[BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain
591      ACK frames' -- we need to keep QUIC version in mind when selecting
592      the longest possible packet number encoding used for the buffered
593      packet that carries the ACK.
594    - [BUGFIX] Do not increase CWND when timeout occurs.
595    - http_client: support setting handshake timeout on command line.
596      Use -o handshake_to=timeout.
597    - http_client: use -k to connect UDP socket to pick up ICMP errors.
598    - http_client: allow pathless mode, when only handshake is performed
599      without issuing any requests.  This can be done by simply not
600      specifying a -p flag on the command line.
601
6022019-02-11
603    - 1.19.2
604    - [BUGFIX] Begin negotiation with version provided in 0-RTT info.
605    - [BUGFIX] Version checking in zero_rtt deserialize function.
606
6072019-02-04
608    - 1.19.1
609    - [BUGFIX] Fix Windows build.
610
6112019-02-04
612    - 1.19.0
613    - [FEATURE, API Change] 0-RTT support.  Add function to export 0-RTT
614      information; it can be supplied to a subsequent connect() call.
615    - [FEATURE] Add -0 flag to http_client to exercise 0-RTT support.
616    - [BUGFIX] Resuscitate the Windows build.
617    - [BUGFIX] Send HTTP settings (max header list size) if necessary.
618    - [BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain ACK frames.
619    - [BUGFIX] Make packet writeable once all STREAM frames are elided.
620    - [BUGFIX] Fix potential null dereference when realloc fails.
621    - cmake: simplify build configuration.
622
6232019-01-28
624    - 1.18.0
625    - [API Change] Can specify clock granularity in engine settings.
626    - [BUGFIX] Pacer uses fixed clock granularity.  Since the change on
627      2018-04-09, it is not necessary to try to approximate the next tick
628      time in the pacer: it can use fix clock granularity specified by
629      the user.
630    - [BUGFIX] Do not tick constantly before handshake is done.
631    - [BUGFIX] Do not exit tick prematurely: reuse packet with ACK.  Even
632      if we cannot allocate *more* packets, we could still be able to write
633      to one already allocated.
634    - [BUGFIX] Do not schedule pacer if there are no lost packets.
635
6362019-01-17
637    - 1.17.15
638    - [BUGFIX] http_client: make sure only one read per on_read() callback
639      is performed in the header conversion bypass (-B) mode.
640    - http_client: with -E, assign random priority when stream is created.
641    - [OPTIMIZATION] On immediate write, place an ACK frame into the first
642      buffered packet if an ACK is queued.  This reduces the number of
643      standalone ACK packets.
644    - [OPTIMIZATION] Allow placing more than one STREAM frame from the same
645      stream into an outgoing packet.  This change minimizes the number of
646      buffered packets required to store several small HTTP messages by
647      virtue of allowing more than one STREAM frame from HEADERS stream in
648      the same packet.
649    - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers when writing to buffered packets.  This
650      causes the headers to be written to the same buffered packet queue,
651      thereby improving packet utilization, especially for small HTTP
652      messages.
653
6542019-01-16
655    - 1.17.14
656    - [FEATURE] http_client can now collect stats: time to connect, TTFB,
657      time to download, requests per seconds, and bandwidth.  See -t flag.
658    - [BUGFIX] http_client: -B, -K, and -r can be used at the same time.
659    - [BUGFIX] http_client: do not display cert chain before each request.
660      Now this is only done once per connection, if the handshake is
661      successful and -a option is given.
662    - [BUGFIX] Do not wait to dispatch on_close() after reading.  If a
663      stream is scheduled to be closed after on_read() callback returns,
664      close it immediately instead of waiting until the end of the tick.
665      If client creates new request from on_close() event, they will be
666      processed in the same tick instead of waiting for the next one.
667    - [BUGFIX] HEADERS stream is critical: always treat it with highest
668      priority.
669
6702019-01-10
671    - 1.17.12
672    - [FEATURE] http_client can now issue parallel requests in the context
673      of a single connection.  See -w option.
674
6752019-01-03
676    - 1.17.11
677    - Fix strict aliasing warning in optimized compilation.
678
6792018-12-27
680    - 1.17.10
681    - Fix the example program to be able to use parallel connections
682      again.  (See the -n argument.)
683
6842018-12-18
685    - 1.17.9
686    - [BUGFIX] Engine: reduce minimum batch size from 256 to 4
687
6882018-12-10
689    - 1.17.8
690    - [BUGFIX] Fix compilation on FreeBSD and 32-bit Linux
691
6922018-12-03
693    - 1.17.7
694    - [BUGFIX] Do not unset PING alarm before ringing expired alarms.
695      This prevented PING from ever being sent.
696
6972018-11-29
698    - 1.17.6
699    - Add failsafe: resume sending packets after some time
700
701      The change puts a 1-second limit on the amount of time the engine
702      will not send packets after some packets are delayed.  This makes
703      the library robust in case the user does not unblock the engine
704      explicitly using lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() call.
705
706    - [BUGFIX] Handle corner cases in send controller when packets are
707      a) delayed or b) dropped during repackaging.
708    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak: destroy buffered packets during controller
709      cleanup.
710
7112018-11-16
712    - 1.17.3
713    - [BUGFIX] Do not send STOP_WAITING frames when using Q044
714
7152018-10-19
716    - 1.17.2
717    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak in test_frame_rw unit test.
718    - [BUGFIX] Parsing packets with short IETF header: do not overwrite
719      flags.  (Only a problem in unit tests -- benign otherwise.)
720
7212018-10-16
722    - 1.17.0
723    - [API Change] Packet out Memory Interface (PMI) update:
724      - Split PMI pool return into pmi_release and pmi_return
725      - PMI callbacks take peer_ctx and is_ipv6 arguments
726    - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free when certificate is updated
727    - Silence gcc warning in optimized mode by performing useless
728      initialization
729    - cmake: use the standard variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE instead of
730      DEVEL_MODE
731
7322018-10-03
733    - 1.16.0
734    - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_n_avail_streams()
735    - [BUGFIX] only dispatch crypto stream read events if WANT_READ is on
736
7372018-09-27
738    - 1.15.0
739    - [API Change] Add LSCONN_ST_PEER_GOING_AWAY to the list of conn statuses
740    - [BUGFIX] free uncompressed headers correctly when error occurs
741
7422018-09-12
743    - 1.14.3
744    - [BUGFIX] Do not abort conn on STREAM frame for a reset stream
745    - [BUGFIX] Drop packets that would become empty due to repackaging.
746      Packets on the scheduled queue may be marked for repackaging.
747      Frames such as ACK frame that are never resent are removed from
748      repackaged packets.  We must check that the newly repackaged packet
749      would not be empty.  If it would be, it is destroyed instead and
750      the next packet on the scheduled queue is used.  Note that this
751      change only affects the logic to return the next packet to be sent.
752      Lost packets that are being rescheduled are already processed in
753      this fashion.
754    - Byteswap CID before logging it - this makes it match Chrome CIDs.
755      (Except Q035, which is the last little-endian GQUIC version we
756      support.)
757
7582018-09-06
759    - 1.14.0
760    - [API Change] Disable packet sending if full batch cannot be sent
761      If lsquic_packets_out_f() cannot send the whole batch, disable
762      packet sending until lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() is called.
763    - [BUGFIX] Handle case when STREAM frame does not fit.
764    - [BUGFIX] Always allow incoming STREAM frames to overlap.  Peers
765      may send overlapping STREAM frames even if using versions older
766      than Q043.
767    - Custom header set fixes:
768      - set "FIN reached" flag when custom header with FIN flag is
769        claimed;
770      - do not return custom header set for a reset stream.
771
7722018-08-27
773
774    - 1.13.0
775    - [FEATURE, API Change] Add ability to create custom header set
776      objects via callbacks.  This avoids reading and re-parsing
777      headers from the stream.
778
7792018-08-27
780
781    - 1.12.4
782    - Fix memory leak when engine is destroyed

792
793    - 1.12.2
794    - [BUGFIX] Update count of scheduled bytes when adjusting size of
795      an already-scheduled packet.
796    - Emit info instead of warning messages when stream is used in
797      unexpected ways.
798
7992018-08-17
800
801    - 1.12.0
802    - [FEATURE, API Change] Add support for certificate verification

8142018-08-09
815
816    - 1.10.2
817    - [BUGFIX] Don't go over limit when creating delayed streams
818
8192018-07-10
820
821    - 1.10.1
822    - [BUGFIX]  process connections after each batch of packets is read
823      This avoids a problem of accumulating a very large list of packets
824      (possible when speeds are high and socket's receive buffer is large)
825      and processing it all at once.
826    - If glibc is older than 2.17, link with rt.  This is necessary for
827      clock_getres(2).
828    - Add version macros to lsquic.h; remove unnecessary includes.
829
8302018-06-13
831
832    - [BUGFIX] allow multiple parallel connections by default
833
834      Use the original method of tracking connections by CIDs by default.
835      If zero-sized CID support is turned on, connections are tracked by
836      the address.  A new connection is not created if another connection
837      is using the same network address
838
8392018-05-30
840
841    - [FEATURE, API CHANGE] Support zero-sized CIDs in received packets

855
8562018-05-18
857
858    - [API] Expose useful lsquic_ver2str[] in lsquic.h
859    - [BUGFIX] Do not produce packet sequence gaps due to STREAM frame elision
860    - Improve checks of number of incoming streams limit and associated
861      error reporting.
862    - [BUGFIX] Command-line option `-6` now works correctly.
863

869
8702018-05-09
871
872    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q043.

913    - Fix busy loop: tickable must make progress.  When connection is
914      self-reporting as tickable, it must make progress when ticked.  There
915      are two issues:
916        1. If there are buffered packets, the connection is only tickable if
917           they can be sent out.
918        2. A connection is tickable if there are streams on the servicing
919           queue.  When the tick occurs, we must service the stream
920           independent of whether any packets are sent.

941
942    [API Change, OPTIMIZATION] Only process conns that need to be processed
943
944    The API is simplified: do not expose the user code to several
945    queues.  A "connection queue" is now an internal concept.
946    The user processes connections using the single function
947    lsquic_engine_process_conns().  When this function is called,
948    only those connections are processed that need to be processed.
949    A connection needs to be processed when:
950
951        1. New incoming packets have been fed to the connection.
952        2. User wants to read from a stream that is readable.
953        3. User wants to write to a stream that is writeable.
954        4. There are buffered packets that can be sent out.  (This
955           means that the user wrote to a stream outside of the
956           lsquic library callback.)
957        5. A control frame (such as BLOCKED) needs to be sent out.
958        6. A stream needs to be serviced or delayed stream needs to
959           be created.
960        7. An alarm rings.
961        8. Pacer timer expires.
962
963    To achieve this, the library places the connections into two
964    priority queues (min heaps):
965
966        1. Tickable Queue; and
967        2. Advisory Tick Time queue (ATTQ).
968
969    Each time lsquic_engine_process_conns() is called, the Tickable
970    Queue is emptied.  After the connections have been ticked, they are
971    queried again: if a connection is not being closed, it is placed
972    either in the Tickable Queue if it is ready to be ticked again or
973    it is placed in the Advisory Tick Time Queue.  It is assumed that
974    a connection always has at least one timer set (the idle alarm).
975
976    The connections in the Tickable Queue are arranged in the least
977    recently ticked order.  This lets connections that have been quiet
978    longer to get their packets scheduled first.
979
980    This change means that the library no longer needs to be ticked
981    periodically.  The user code can query the library when is the
982    next tick event and schedule it exactly.  When connections are
983    processed, only the tickable connections are processed, not *all*
984    the connections.  When there are no tick events, it means that no
985    timer event is necessary -- only the file descriptor READ event
986    is active.
987
988    The following are improvements and simplifications that have
989    been triggered:
990
991        - Queue of connections with incoming packets is gone.
992        - "Pending Read/Write Events" Queue is gone (along with its
993          history and progress checks).  This queue has become the
994          Tickable Queue.
995        - The connection hash no longer needs to track the connection
996          insertion order.

1005
1006    - [OPTIMIZATION] Merge series of ACKs if possible
1007
1008      Parsed single-range ACK frames (that is the majority of frames) are
1009      saved in the connection and their processing is deferred until the
1010      connection is ticked.  If several ACKs come in a series between
1011      adjacent ticks, we check whether the latest ACK is a strict superset
1012      of the saved ACK.  If it is, the older ACK is not processed.
1013
1014      If ACK frames can be merged, they are merged and only one of them is
1015      either processed or saved.
1016
1017    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up ACK verification by simplifying send history.
1018
1019      Never generate a gap in the sent packet number sequence.  This reduces
1020      the send history to a single number instead of potentially a series of
1021      packet ranges and thereby speeds up ACK verification.
1022
1023      By default, detecting a gap in the send history is not fatal: only a
1024      single warning is generated per connection.  The connection can continue
1025      to operate even if the ACK verification code is not able to detect some
1026      inconsistencies.
1027
1028    - [OPTIMIZATION] Rearrange the lsquic_send_ctl struct
1029
1030      The first part of struct lsquic_send_ctl now consists of members that
1031      are used in lsquic_send_ctl_got_ack() (in the absense of packet loss,
1032      which is the normal case).  To speed up reads and writes, we no longer
1033      try to save space by using 8- and 16-bit integers.  Use regular integer
1034      width for everything.
1035
1036    - [OPTIMIZATION] Cache size of sent packet.
1037
1038    - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of the largest ACKed in packet_out
1039
1040      Instead of parsing our own ACK frames when packet has been acked,
1041      use the value saved in the packet_out structure when the ACK frame
1042      was generated.
1043
1044    - [OPTIMIZATION] Take RTT sampling conditional out of ACK loop
1045
1046    - [OPTIMIZATION] ACK processing: only call clock_gettime() if needed
1047
1048    - [OPTIMIZATION] Several code-level optimizations to ACK processing.

1074    - Fix: delay client on_new_conn() call until connection is fully set up.
1075    - Fixes to buffered packets logic: splitting, STREAM frame elision.

1094    - Add APIs.txt -- describes LSQUIC APIs
1095
10962017-10-31
1097
1098    - [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone.  The stream no
1099      longer opens files and deals with file descriptors.  (Among other
1100      things, this makes the code more portable.)  Three writing functions
1101      are provided:
1102
1103        lsquic_stream_write
1104        lsquic_stream_writev
1105        lsquic_stream_writef    (NEW)
1106
1107      lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function
1108      pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement.
1109      This is the most flexible way.  lsquic_stream_write() and
1110      lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around
1111      lsquic_stream_writef().
1112
1113    - [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the
1114      on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer,
1115      bypassing auxiliary data structures.  This reduces amount of memory
1116      required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited
1117      by the congestion window.
1118
1119      To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N
1120      outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to
1121      by any stream.  One half of these are reserved for the highest
1122      priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams.  This way,
1123      low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams
1124      and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send
1125      their packets out.
1126
1127      The algorithm is as follows:
1128
1129      - When user writes to stream outside of the callback:
1130        - If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the
1131          reserved N/2 queue or fail.
1132            (The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) --
1133             rather than N/2, allowing high-priority streams to write as
1134             much as can be sent.)
1135        - If the stream is not the highest priority, try to place the
1136          data onto the reserved N/2 queue or fail.
1137      - When tick occurs *and* more packets can be scheduled:
1138        - Transfer packets from the high N/2 queue to the scheduled
1139          queue.
1140        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1141          - Call on_write callbacks for highest-priority streams,
1142            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue.
1143        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1144          - Transfer packets from the low N/2 queue to the scheduled
1145            queue.
1146        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1147          - Call on_write callbacks for non-highest-priority streams,
1148            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue
1149
1150      The number N is currently 20, but it could be varied based on
1151      resource usage.
1152
1153    - If stream is created due to incoming headers, make headers readable
1154      from on_new.
1155
1156    - Outgoing packets are no longer marked non-writeable to prevent placing
1157      more than one STREAM frame from the same stream into a single packet.
1158      This property is maintained via code flow and an explicit check.
1159      Packets for stream data are allocated using a special function.
1160
1161    - STREAM frame elision is cheaper, as we only perform it if a reset
1162      stream has outgoing packets referencing it.
1163
1164    - lsquic_packet_out_t is smaller, as stream_rec elements are now
1165      inside a union.
1166
