In particular, this allows one 25 to see whether token was sent. 26 - Don't migrate client if es_allow_migration is false. 27 282019-11-07 29 - 2.6.0 30 - [FEATURE] QUIC and HTTP/3 Internet Draft 24 support 31 322019-11-07 33 - 2.5.2 34 - [BUGFIX] argument order to gQUIC client constructor. Regression 35 introduced in 2.5.0. 36 - [BUGFIX] split buffered packet error recovery: destroy the correct 37 packet. 38 392019-11-04 40 - 2.5.1 41 - [BUGFIX] Fix double-free when emptying a packet number space. 42 - [BUGFIX] http_server: fix md5sum handler: handle EOF correctly. 43 - [BUGFIX] Use random values in bits 4 and 5 of the first byte of 44 verneg packets (regression introduced in 2.5.0). 45 - [OPTIMIZATION] Don't compile in expensive attq checks by default. 46 - [OPTIMIZATION] http_server: compile regexes only once. 47 482019-10-31 49 - 2.5.0 50 - [API] lsquic_engine_connect() can now be passed QUIC version to use. 51 - [OPTIMIZATION] Queue opportunistic ACKs if there is data to be sent. 52 - [BUGFIX] Don't evict streams from priority iterator if there is 53 only one queue. 54 - [OPTIMIZATION, BUGFIX] Several other optimizations and bug fixes. 55 - Use ls-qpack v0.10.7. 56 572019-10-24 58 - 2.4.10 59 - [BUGFIX] IETF QUIC server: fix uninitialized variable use. 60 - [BUGFIX] make sure TLSv1.3 is not disabled in SSL object. 61 - [BUGFIX] Use issuer name and serial number to cache certs (SKID 62 values are not unique). 63 - [BUGFIX] Always set the idle alarm in IETF connection so that it 64 can time out. 65 - Use ls-qpack v0.10.6, as it silences some warnings. 66 672019-10-21 68 - 2.4.8 69 - [OPTIMIZATION, BUGFIX] Use ls-qpack v0.10.5. 70 712019-10-15 72 - 2.4.7 73 - Add echo client and server to the distibution. 74 - Add MD5 client and server to the distibution. 75 - Fix http_client: check command-line arguments better, prevent crash. 76 - Fix IETF conn: can_write_ack() should only care about APP PNS. 77 - Client: delay stream creation until handshake succeds. 78 - Reset HTTP stream whose write end is closed prematurely. 79 - Fix tickable(): mirror behavior of tick() wrt buffered packets. 80 - Log reason why engine is tickable. 81 822019-10-11 83 - 2.4.6 84 - Minor code cleanup and logging improvements. 85 - Server and client programs: include library version (e.g. 2.4.6) 86 into `server' and `user-agent' headers. 87 882019-10-08 89 - 2.4.5 90 - [OPTIMIZATION]: flush encoder stream only when necessary. 91 - [BUGFIX] Use ls-qpack v0.10.2 for new API -- and for a bug fix. 92 - [BUGFIX] Typo in IETF conn SETTINGS writer. 93 - Use latest BoringSSL. 94 952019-10-08 96 - 2.4.4 97 - [API] Add lsquic_alpn2ver() to aid parsing Alt-Svc header. 98 - [BUGFIX] NULL dereference when H3 frame header would be split. 99 - [BUGFIX] Do not close fixed-size H3 frame prematurely. 100 - [BUGFIX] Allow PING frames in IETF mini conn. 101 - [BUGFIX] Mini conns: don't send any packets after receiving 102 CONNECTION_CLOSE. 103 - [BUGFIX] Client migration: reserve slot for DCID from transport params. 104 - [BUGFIX] Allow max_early_data_size=0 -- early_data might not be there. 105 - [BUGFIX] Use an invalid stream number to reset BPT cache (zero is now a 106 valid stream number). 107 - [SPEC] Use FINAL_SIZE_ERROR when FIN mismatch is detected. 108 - [OPTIMIZATION] Closed connection only gets one chance to send packets. 109 - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers stream before packetizing stream data. 110 - [OPTIMIZATION] process QPACK encoder STREAM frames immediately. 111 - Update ls-qpack to v0.10.1. 112 1132019-09-30 114 - 2.4.3 115 - Add GQUIC versions to the list of h3 ALPNs for Alt-Svc header. 116 For example, h3-Q043. Chrome will switch to using this format at 117 some point in the future. 118 - [BUGFIX] Send correct value in max_streams_uni transport param 119 - [SPEC] Abort IETF QUIC connection if max_early_data_size is not set 120 to 0xFFFFFFFF 121 1222019-09-23 123 - 2.4.2 124 - [BUGFIX] H3 framing: fix zero-byte write when space is available 125 - [BUGFIX] Don't send STREAM frame when incoming unidirectgional stream 126 is closed 127 - [BUGFIX] Cancel all pending writes by stream reset by a GOAWAY 128 - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free in IETF full conn 129 - [OPTIMIZATION] Wait for session tickets for two seconds and then drop 130 SSL object and crypto streams. 131 1322019-09-18 133 - 2.4.0 134 - [FEATURE] QUIC and HTTP/3 Internet Draft 23 support 135 1362019-09-13 137 - 2.3.1 138 - [BUGFIX] Fix memory leaks 139 - [BUGFIX] Fix unit tests 140 1412019-09-12 142 - 2.3.0 143 - [FEATURE] BBR congestion control is on by default 144 - [BUGFIX] BBR app-limited logic 145 - [BUGFIX] Fix uninitialized warnings in IETF 146 - [BUGFIX] Update ls-qpack to v0.9.14 147 - [CLEANUP] Code cleanup 148 1492019-09-11 150 - 2.2.0 151 - [FEATURE] Server code is included in the library 152 - [FEATURE] IETF QUIC and HTTP/3 Support (ID-22) 153 1542019-05-13 155 - 1.21.2 156 - [OPTIMIZATION] HPACK: use history to improve compression performance 157 1582019-05-06 159 - 1.21.1 160 - [BUGFIX] If FIN or RST not received, don't delay stream destruction. 161 - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up HPACK encoder by using same hash value to 162 search static and dynamic tables. 163 1642019-04-12 165 - 1.21.0 166 - [FEATURE] Add qlog log module. 167 1682019-04-01 169 - 1.20.0 170 - [FEATURE] Add support for Q046. 171 1722019-03-19 173 - 1.19.6 174 - [BUGFIX] Ensure that Largest Observed does not decrease in ACKs we 175 send. ACK frames placed in packets in buffered queues (optimization 176 introduced in 1.17.15) can be preceded by an ACK frame generated later. 177 In this case, the older ACK frame should not be sent out, as Chromium- 178 based servers flags decrease in the ACK frame's Largest Observed value 179 as an error. 180 1812019-03-05 182 - 1.19.5 183 - [BUGFIX] Use correct public key from PUBS based on KEXS index. 184 - [BUGFIX] Check flags before dispatching writes, avoiding assert. 185 - [BUGFIX] Set :scheme to "https" (instead of "HTTP"). 186 1872019-02-25 188 - 1.19.4 189 - [BUGFIX] Check buffer bounds when looking up version in 0-RTT blob. 190 - [BUGFIX] http_client: don't fetch 0-rtt info if handshake failed. 191 - Log number of pacer calls at DEBUG, rather than NOTICE, level. 192 1932019-02-18 194 - 1.19.3 195 - [BUGFIX] Q044: don't encode packet number in 6 bytes. Six-byte 196 packet number encoding does not exist in Q044. This fixes a 197 regression introduced in '[BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain 198 ACK frames' -- we need to keep QUIC version in mind when selecting 199 the longest possible packet number encoding used for the buffered 200 packet that carries the ACK. 201 - [BUGFIX] Do not increase CWND when timeout occurs. 202 - http_client: support setting handshake timeout on command line. 203 Use -o handshake_to=timeout. 204 - http_client: use -k to connect UDP socket to pick up ICMP errors. 205 - http_client: allow pathless mode, when only handshake is performed 206 without issuing any requests. This can be done by simply not 207 specifying a -p flag on the command line. 208 2092019-02-11 210 - 1.19.2 211 - [BUGFIX] Begin negotiation with version provided in 0-RTT info. 212 - [BUGFIX] Version checking in zero_rtt deserialize function. 213 2142019-02-04 215 - 1.19.1 216 - [BUGFIX] Fix Windows build. 217 2182019-02-04 219 - 1.19.0 220 - [FEATURE, API Change] 0-RTT support. Add function to export 0-RTT 221 information; it can be supplied to a subsequent connect() call. 222 - [FEATURE] Add -0 flag to http_client to exercise 0-RTT support. 223 - [BUGFIX] Resuscitate the Windows build. 224 - [BUGFIX] Send HTTP settings (max header list size) if necessary. 225 - [BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain ACK frames. 226 - [BUGFIX] Make packet writeable once all STREAM frames are elided. 227 - [BUGFIX] Fix potential null dereference when realloc fails. 228 - cmake: simplify build configuration. 229 2302019-01-28 231 - 1.18.0 232 - [API Change] Can specify clock granularity in engine settings. 233 - [BUGFIX] Pacer uses fixed clock granularity. Since the change on 234 2018-04-09, it is not necessary to try to approximate the next tick 235 time in the pacer: it can use fix clock granularity specified by 236 the user. 237 - [BUGFIX] Do not tick constantly before handshake is done. 238 - [BUGFIX] Do not exit tick prematurely: reuse packet with ACK. Even 239 if we cannot allocate *more* packets, we could still be able to write 240 to one already allocated. 241 - [BUGFIX] Do not schedule pacer if there are no lost packets. 242 2432019-01-17 244 - 1.17.15 245 - [BUGFIX] http_client: make sure only one read per on_read() callback 246 is performed in the header conversion bypass (-B) mode. 247 - http_client: with -E, assign random priority when stream is created. 248 - [OPTIMIZATION] On immediate write, place an ACK frame into the first 249 buffered packet if an ACK is queued. This reduces the number of 250 standalone ACK packets. 251 - [OPTIMIZATION] Allow placing more than one STREAM frame from the same 252 stream into an outgoing packet. This change minimizes the number of 253 buffered packets required to store several small HTTP messages by 254 virtue of allowing more than one STREAM frame from HEADERS stream in 255 the same packet. 256 - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers when writing to buffered packets. This 257 causes the headers to be written to the same buffered packet queue, 258 thereby improving packet utilization, especially for small HTTP 259 messages. 260 2612019-01-16 262 - 1.17.14 263 - [FEATURE] http_client can now collect stats: time to connect, TTFB, 264 time to download, requests per seconds, and bandwidth. See -t flag. 265 - [BUGFIX] http_client: -B, -K, and -r can be used at the same time. 266 - [BUGFIX] http_client: do not display cert chain before each request. 267 Now this is only done once per connection, if the handshake is 268 successful and -a option is given. 269 - [BUGFIX] Do not wait to dispatch on_close() after reading. If a 270 stream is scheduled to be closed after on_read() callback returns, 271 close it immediately instead of waiting until the end of the tick. 272 If client creates new request from on_close() event, they will be 273 processed in the same tick instead of waiting for the next one. 274 - [BUGFIX] HEADERS stream is critical: always treat it with highest 275 priority. 276 2772019-01-10 278 - 1.17.12 279 - [FEATURE] http_client can now issue parallel requests in the context 280 of a single connection. See -w option. 281 2822019-01-03 283 - 1.17.11 284 - Fix strict aliasing warning in optimized compilation. 285 2862018-12-27 287 - 1.17.10 288 - Fix the example program to be able to use parallel connections 289 again. (See the -n argument.) 290 2912018-12-18 292 - 1.17.9 293 - [BUGFIX] Engine: reduce minimum batch size from 256 to 4 294 2952018-12-10 296 - 1.17.8 297 - [BUGFIX] Fix compilation on FreeBSD and 32-bit Linux 298 2992018-12-03 300 - 1.17.7 301 - [BUGFIX] Do not unset PING alarm before ringing expired alarms. 302 This prevented PING from ever being sent. 303 3042018-11-29 305 - 1.17.6 306 - Add failsafe: resume sending packets after some time 307 308 The change puts a 1-second limit on the amount of time the engine 309 will not send packets after some packets are delayed. This makes 310 the library robust in case the user does not unblock the engine 311 explicitly using lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() call. 312 313 - [BUGFIX] Handle corner cases in send controller when packets are 314 a) delayed or b) dropped during repackaging. 315 - [BUGFIX] Memory leak: destroy buffered packets during controller 316 cleanup. 317 3182018-11-16 319 - 1.17.3 320 - [BUGFIX] Do not send STOP_WAITING frames when using Q044 321 3222018-10-19 323 - 1.17.2 324 - [BUGFIX] Memory leak in test_frame_rw unit test. 325 - [BUGFIX] Parsing packets with short IETF header: do not overwrite 326 flags. (Only a problem in unit tests -- benign otherwise.) 327 3282018-10-16 329 - 1.17.0 330 - [API Change] Packet out Memory Interface (PMI) update: 331 - Split PMI pool return into pmi_release and pmi_return 332 - PMI callbacks take peer_ctx and is_ipv6 arguments 333 - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free when certificate is updated 334 - Silence gcc warning in optimized mode by performing useless 335 initialization 336 - cmake: use the standard variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE instead of 337 DEVEL_MODE 338 3392018-10-03 340 - 1.16.0 341 - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_n_avail_streams() 342 - [BUGFIX] only dispatch crypto stream read events if WANT_READ is on 343 3442018-09-27 345 - 1.15.0 346 - [API Change] Add LSCONN_ST_PEER_GOING_AWAY to the list of conn statuses 347 - [BUGFIX] free uncompressed headers correctly when error occurs 348 3492018-09-12 350 - 1.14.3 351 - [BUGFIX] Do not abort conn on STREAM frame for a reset stream 352 - [BUGFIX] Drop packets that would become empty due to repackaging. 353 Packets on the scheduled queue may be marked for repackaging. 354 Frames such as ACK frame that are never resent are removed from 355 repackaged packets. We must check that the newly repackaged packet 356 would not be empty. If it would be, it is destroyed instead and 357 the next packet on the scheduled queue is used. Note that this 358 change only affects the logic to return the next packet to be sent. 359 Lost packets that are being rescheduled are already processed in 360 this fashion. 361 - Byteswap CID before logging it - this makes it match Chrome CIDs. 362 (Except Q035, which is the last little-endian GQUIC version we 363 support.) 364 3652018-09-06 366 - 1.14.0 367 - [API Change] Disable packet sending if full batch cannot be sent 368 If lsquic_packets_out_f() cannot send the whole batch, disable 369 packet sending until lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() is called. 370 - [BUGFIX] Handle case when STREAM frame does not fit. 371 - [BUGFIX] Always allow incoming STREAM frames to overlap. Peers 372 may send overlapping STREAM frames even if using versions older 373 than Q043. 374 - Custom header set fixes: 375 - set "FIN reached" flag when custom header with FIN flag is 376 claimed; 377 - do not return custom header set for a reset stream. 378 3792018-08-27 380 381 - 1.13.0 382 - [FEATURE, API Change] Add ability to create custom header set 383 objects via callbacks. This avoids reading and re-parsing 384 headers from the stream. 385 3862018-08-27 387 388 - 1.12.4 389 - Fix memory leak when engine is destroyed 390 - Fix memory leak in http_client 391 - Fix gcc warning in unit tests 392 3932018-08-22 394 395 - 1.12.3 396 - [BUGFIX] Fix duplicate STREAM frame detection 397 3982018-08-20 399 400 - 1.12.2 401 - [BUGFIX] Update count of scheduled bytes when adjusting size of 402 an already-scheduled packet. 403 - Emit info instead of warning messages when stream is used in 404 unexpected ways. 405 4062018-08-17 407 408 - 1.12.0 409 - [FEATURE, API Change] Add support for certificate verification 410 4112018-08-16 412 413 - 1.11.1 414 - [BUGFIX] Fix STOP_WAITING frame processing in the new Q044 code 415 4162018-08-15 417 418 - 1.11.0 419 - [FEATURE] Add support for Q044. 420 4212018-08-09 422 423 - 1.10.2 424 - [BUGFIX] Don't go over limit when creating delayed streams 425 4262018-07-10 427 428 - 1.10.1 429 - [BUGFIX] process connections after each batch of packets is read 430 This avoids a problem of accumulating a very large list of packets 431 (possible when speeds are high and socket's receive buffer is large) 432 and processing it all at once. 433 - If glibc is older than 2.17, link with rt. This is necessary for 434 clock_getres(2). 435 - Add version macros to lsquic.h; remove unnecessary includes. 436 4372018-06-13 438 439 - [BUGFIX] allow multiple parallel connections by default 440 441 Use the original method of tracking connections by CIDs by default. 442 If zero-sized CID support is turned on, connections are tracked by 443 the address. A new connection is not created if another connection 444 is using the same network address 445 4462018-05-30 447 448 - [FEATURE, API CHANGE] Support zero-sized CIDs in received packets 449 4502018-05-24 451 452 - Close connection properly when packet encryption fails 453 4542018-05-23 455 456 - [BUGFIX] Do not produce packet sequence gaps due to delayed packets 457 4582018-05-21 459 460 - [API Change] Add optional callback to call when handshake is done 461 - [API Change, BUGFIX] After send failure, wait until transport available 462 4632018-05-18 464 465 - [API] Expose useful lsquic_ver2str[] in lsquic.h 466 - [BUGFIX] Do not produce packet sequence gaps due to STREAM frame elision 467 - Improve checks of number of incoming streams limit and associated 468 error reporting. 469 - [BUGFIX] Command-line option `-6` now works correctly. 470 4712018-05-16 472 473 - [FEATURE] DNS resolution 474 - [BUGFIX] Frame insertion mis-ID as overlap instead of dup 475 - http_client: fix priority range generated by -E flag 476 4772018-05-09 478 479 - [FEATURE] Add support for Q043. 480 - Support for versions Q037, Q038, Q041, and Q042 has been removed. 481 - Fix typo in debug message. 482 - Fix code indentation. 483 - Add /* fallthru */ comment to stop newer gcc from complaining. 484 - Logger: fix compilation of optimized Windows build. 485 4862018-05-04 487 488 - [FEATURE] Add support for Q042. 489 - Remove comment: MSPC is obsolete (no code changes) 490 - Prog: use lsquic_str2ver() when processing -o version flag 491 - Remove unused CTIM and SRBF transport parameters 492 - Disable QUIC versions Q037 and Q038 by default 493 - Fix Windows compilation by including compat header file in 494 lshpack.c 495 - Address warnings produced by newer versions of gcc 496 - Future-proof: turn off -Werror 497 4982018-05-02 499 500 - [BUGFIX] Make lsquic_conn_quic_version() available 501 - Switch to using ls-hpack 1.1 502 - [BUGFIX] Do not ignore stream resets after receiving FIN 503 5042018-04-27 505 506 - HPACK: do not allow header block to end with table size update. 507 5082018-04-25 509 510 - [BUGFIX] Do not create gap in sent packnos when squeezing delayed 511 packets. 512 - [BUGFIX] sendctl checks for all unacked bytes, not just retx bytes. 513 - [BUGFIX] connections with blocked scheduled packets are not tickable 514 for sending. 515 - [BUGFIX] Conn is tickable if it wants to send a connection-level 516 frame. 517 5182018-04-23 519 520 - Fix busy loop: tickable must make progress. When connection is 521 self-reporting as tickable, it must make progress when ticked. There 522 are two issues: 523 1. If there are buffered packets, the connection is only tickable if 524 they can be sent out. 525 2. A connection is tickable if there are streams on the servicing 526 queue. When the tick occurs, we must service the stream 527 independent of whether any packets are sent. 528 - Fix assertion in pacer which can be incorrect under some 529 conditions. 530 - cmake: do not turn on address sanitizer if in Travis. 531 5322018-04-20 533 534 - [BUGFIX] Fix bug in lsquic_engine_connect() exposed by yesterday's 535 changes. 536 5372018-04-19 538 539 - [BUGFIX] Add connection to Tickable Queue on stream write 540 - cmake: use MSVC variable instead of trying to detect 541 - engine: improve connection incref/decref logging 542 - stream: don't ignore errors that may occur on triggered flush 543 - connection: remove obsolete method 544 - engine: indicate connection as tickable if previous call went 545 over threshold 546 5472018-04-09 548 549 [API Change, OPTIMIZATION] Only process conns that need to be processed 550 551 The API is simplified: do not expose the user code to several 552 queues. A "connection queue" is now an internal concept. 553 The user processes connections using the single function 554 lsquic_engine_process_conns(). When this function is called, 555 only those connections are processed that need to be processed. 556 A connection needs to be processed when: 557 558 1. New incoming packets have been fed to the connection. 559 2. User wants to read from a stream that is readable. 560 3. User wants to write to a stream that is writeable. 561 4. There are buffered packets that can be sent out. (This 562 means that the user wrote to a stream outside of the 563 lsquic library callback.) 564 5. A control frame (such as BLOCKED) needs to be sent out. 565 6. A stream needs to be serviced or delayed stream needs to 566 be created. 567 7. An alarm rings. 568 8. Pacer timer expires. 569 570 To achieve this, the library places the connections into two 571 priority queues (min heaps): 572 573 1. Tickable Queue; and 574 2. Advisory Tick Time queue (ATTQ). 575 576 Each time lsquic_engine_process_conns() is called, the Tickable 577 Queue is emptied. After the connections have been ticked, they are 578 queried again: if a connection is not being closed, it is placed 579 either in the Tickable Queue if it is ready to be ticked again or 580 it is placed in the Advisory Tick Time Queue. It is assumed that 581 a connection always has at least one timer set (the idle alarm). 582 583 The connections in the Tickable Queue are arranged in the least 584 recently ticked order. This lets connections that have been quiet 585 longer to get their packets scheduled first. 586 587 This change means that the library no longer needs to be ticked 588 periodically. The user code can query the library when is the 589 next tick event and schedule it exactly. When connections are 590 processed, only the tickable connections are processed, not *all* 591 the connections. When there are no tick events, it means that no 592 timer event is necessary -- only the file descriptor READ event 593 is active. 594 595 The following are improvements and simplifications that have 596 been triggered: 597 598 - Queue of connections with incoming packets is gone. 599 - "Pending Read/Write Events" Queue is gone (along with its 600 history and progress checks). This queue has become the 601 Tickable Queue. 602 - The connection hash no longer needs to track the connection 603 insertion order. 604 6052018-04-02 606 607 - [FEATURE] Windows support 608 609 - Reduce stack use -- outgoing packet batch is now allocated on the heap. 610 6112018-03-09 612 613 - [OPTIMIZATION] Merge series of ACKs if possible 614 615 Parsed single-range ACK frames (that is the majority of frames) are 616 saved in the connection and their processing is deferred until the 617 connection is ticked. If several ACKs come in a series between 618 adjacent ticks, we check whether the latest ACK is a strict superset 619 of the saved ACK. If it is, the older ACK is not processed. 620 621 If ACK frames can be merged, they are merged and only one of them is 622 either processed or saved. 623 624 - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up ACK verification by simplifying send history. 625 626 Never generate a gap in the sent packet number sequence. This reduces 627 the send history to a single number instead of potentially a series of 628 packet ranges and thereby speeds up ACK verification. 629 630 By default, detecting a gap in the send history is not fatal: only a 631 single warning is generated per connection. The connection can continue 632 to operate even if the ACK verification code is not able to detect some 633 inconsistencies. 634 635 - [OPTIMIZATION] Rearrange the lsquic_send_ctl struct 636 637 The first part of struct lsquic_send_ctl now consists of members that 638 are used in lsquic_send_ctl_got_ack() (in the absense of packet loss, 639 which is the normal case). To speed up reads and writes, we no longer 640 try to save space by using 8- and 16-bit integers. Use regular integer 641 width for everything. 642 643 - [OPTIMIZATION] Cache size of sent packet. 644 645 - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of the largest ACKed in packet_out 646 647 Instead of parsing our own ACK frames when packet has been acked, 648 use the value saved in the packet_out structure when the ACK frame 649 was generated. 650 651 - [OPTIMIZATION] Take RTT sampling conditional out of ACK loop 652 653 - [OPTIMIZATION] ACK processing: only call clock_gettime() if needed 654 655 - [OPTIMIZATION] Several code-level optimizations to ACK processing. 656 657 - Fix: http_client: fix -I flag; switch assert() to abort() 658 6592018-02-26 660 - [API Change] lsquic_engine_connect() returns pointer to the connection 661 object. 662 - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_get_engine() to get engine object from 663 connection object. 664 - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_status() to query connection status. 665 - [API Change] Add add lsquic_conn_set_ctx(). 666 - [API Change] Add new timestamp format, e.g. 2017-03-21 13:43:46.671345 667 - [OPTIMIZATION] Process handshake STREAM frames as soon as packet 668 arrives. 669 - [OPTIMIZATION] Do not compile expensive send controller sanity check 670 by default. 671 - [OPTIMIZATION] Add fast path to gquic_be_gen_reg_pkt_header. 672 - [OPTIMIZATION] Only make squeeze function call if necessary. 673 - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up Q039 ACK frame parsing. 674 - [OPTIMIZATION] Fit most used elements of packet_out into first 64 bytes. 675 - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of scheduled bytes instead of calculating. 676 - [OPTIMIZATION] Prefetch next unacked packet when processing ACK. 677 - [OPTIMIZATION] Leverage fact that ACK ranges and unacked list are. 678 ordered. 679 - [OPTIMIZATION] Reduce function pointer use for STREAM frame generation 680 - Fix: reset incoming streams that arrive after we send GOAWAY. 681 - Fix: delay client on_new_conn() call until connection is fully set up. 682 - Fixes to buffered packets logic: splitting, STREAM frame elision. 683 - Fix: do not dispatch on_write callback if no packets are available. 684 - Fix WINDOW_UPDATE send and resend logic. 685 - Fix STREAM frame extension code. 686 - Fix: Drop unflushed data when stream is reset. 687 - Switch to tracking CWND using bytes rather than packets. 688 - Fix TCP friendly adjustment in cubic. 689 - Fix: do not generate invalid STOP_WAITING frames during high packet 690 loss. 691 - Pacer fixes. 692 6932017-12-18 694 695 - Fix: better follow cubic curve after idle period 696 - Fix: add missing parts to outgoing packet splitting code 697 - Fix: compilation using gcc 4.8.4 698 6992017-10-31 700 701 - Add APIs.txt -- describes LSQUIC APIs 702 7032017-10-31 704 705 - [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone. The stream no 706 longer opens files and deals with file descriptors. (Among other 707 things, this makes the code more portable.) Three writing functions 708 are provided: 709 710 lsquic_stream_write 711 lsquic_stream_writev 712 lsquic_stream_writef (NEW) 713 714 lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function 715 pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement. 716 This is the most flexible way. lsquic_stream_write() and 717 lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around 718 lsquic_stream_writef(). 719 720 - [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the 721 on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer, 722 bypassing auxiliary data structures. This reduces amount of memory 723 required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited 724 by the congestion window. 725 726 To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N 727 outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to 728 by any stream. One half of these are reserved for the highest 729 priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams. This way, 730 low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams 731 and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send 732 their packets out. 733 734 The algorithm is as follows: 735 736 - When user writes to stream outside of the callback: 737 - If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the 738 reserved N/2 queue or fail. 739 (The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) -- 740 rather than N/2, allowing high-priority streams to write as 741 much as can be sent.) 742 - If the stream is not the highest priority, try to place the 743 data onto the reserved N/2 queue or fail. 744 - When tick occurs *and* more packets can be scheduled: 745 - Transfer packets from the high N/2 queue to the scheduled 746 queue. 747 - If more scheduling is allowed: 748 - Call on_write callbacks for highest-priority streams, 749 placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue. 750 - If more scheduling is allowed: 751 - Transfer packets from the low N/2 queue to the scheduled 752 queue. 753 - If more scheduling is allowed: 754 - Call on_write callbacks for non-highest-priority streams, 755 placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue 756 757 The number N is currently 20, but it could be varied based on 758 resource usage. 759 760 - If stream is created due to incoming headers, make headers readable 761 from on_new. 762 763 - Outgoing packets are no longer marked non-writeable to prevent placing 764 more than one STREAM frame from the same stream into a single packet. 765 This property is maintained via code flow and an explicit check. 766 Packets for stream data are allocated using a special function. 767 768 - STREAM frame elision is cheaper, as we only perform it if a reset 769 stream has outgoing packets referencing it. 770 771 - lsquic_packet_out_t is smaller, as stream_rec elements are now 772 inside a union. 773 7742017-10-12 775 776 - Do not send RST_STREAM when stream is closed for reading 777 - Raise maximum header size from 4K to 64K 778 - Check header name and value lengths against maximum imposed by HPACK 779 - Fix NULL dereference in stream flow controller 780 7812017-10-09 782 783 - Hide handshake implementation behind a set of function pointers 784 - Use monotonically increasing clock 785 - Make sure that retx delay is not larger than the max of 60 seconds 786 7872017-09-29 788 789 - A few fixes to code and README 790 7912017-09-28 792 793 - Add support for Q041; drop support for Q040 794 7952017-09-27 796 797 - Fix CMakeLists.txt: BoringSSL include and lib was mixed up 798 7992017-09-26 800 801 - Add support for Mac OS 802 - Add support for Raspberry Pi 803 - Fix BoringSSL compilation: include <openssl/hmac.h> explicitly 804 8052017-09-22 806 807 - Initial release 808
