52    - [BUGFIX] Send correct value in max_streams_uni transport param
53    - [SPEC] Abort IETF QUIC connection if max_early_data_size is not set
54      to 0xFFFFFFFF

65
662019-09-18
67    - 2.4.0
68    - [FEATURE] QUIC and HTTP/3 Internet Draft 23 support

73    - [BUGFIX] Fix unit tests
74
752019-09-12
76    - 2.3.0
77    - [FEATURE] BBR congestion control is on by default
78    - [BUGFIX] BBR app-limited logic
79    - [BUGFIX] Fix uninitialized warnings in IETF
80    - [BUGFIX] Update ls-qpack to v0.9.14
81    - [CLEANUP] Code cleanup
82
832019-09-11
84    - 2.2.0
85    - [FEATURE] Server code is included in the library
86    - [FEATURE] IETF QUIC and HTTP/3 Support (ID-22)
87
882019-05-13
89    - 1.21.2
90    - [OPTIMIZATION] HPACK: use history to improve compression performance
91
922019-05-06
93    - 1.21.1
94    - [BUGFIX] If FIN or RST not received, don't delay stream destruction.
95    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up HPACK encoder by using same hash value to
96      search static and dynamic tables.
97
982019-04-12
99    - 1.21.0
100    - [FEATURE] Add qlog log module.
101
1022019-04-01
103    - 1.20.0
104    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q046.
105
1062019-03-19
107    - 1.19.6
108    - [BUGFIX] Ensure that Largest Observed does not decrease in ACKs we
109      send.  ACK frames placed in packets in buffered queues (optimization
110      introduced in 1.17.15) can be preceded by an ACK frame generated later.
111      In this case, the older ACK frame should not be sent out, as Chromium-
112      based servers flags decrease in the ACK frame's Largest Observed value
113      as an error.
114
1152019-03-05
116    - 1.19.5
117    - [BUGFIX] Use correct public key from PUBS based on KEXS index.
118    - [BUGFIX] Check flags before dispatching writes, avoiding assert.
119    - [BUGFIX] Set :scheme to "https" (instead of "HTTP").
120
1212019-02-25
122    - 1.19.4
123    - [BUGFIX] Check buffer bounds when looking up version in 0-RTT blob.
124    - [BUGFIX] http_client: don't fetch 0-rtt info if handshake failed.
125    - Log number of pacer calls at DEBUG, rather than NOTICE, level.
126
1272019-02-18
128    - 1.19.3
129    - [BUGFIX] Q044: don't encode packet number in 6 bytes.  Six-byte
130      packet number encoding does not exist in Q044.  This fixes a
131      regression introduced in '[BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain
132      ACK frames' -- we need to keep QUIC version in mind when selecting
133      the longest possible packet number encoding used for the buffered
134      packet that carries the ACK.
135    - [BUGFIX] Do not increase CWND when timeout occurs.
136    - http_client: support setting handshake timeout on command line.
137      Use -o handshake_to=timeout.
138    - http_client: use -k to connect UDP socket to pick up ICMP errors.
139    - http_client: allow pathless mode, when only handshake is performed
140      without issuing any requests.  This can be done by simply not
141      specifying a -p flag on the command line.
142
1432019-02-11
144    - 1.19.2
145    - [BUGFIX] Begin negotiation with version provided in 0-RTT info.
146    - [BUGFIX] Version checking in zero_rtt deserialize function.
147
1482019-02-04
149    - 1.19.1
150    - [BUGFIX] Fix Windows build.
151
1522019-02-04
153    - 1.19.0
154    - [FEATURE, API Change] 0-RTT support.  Add function to export 0-RTT
155      information; it can be supplied to a subsequent connect() call.
156    - [FEATURE] Add -0 flag to http_client to exercise 0-RTT support.
157    - [BUGFIX] Resuscitate the Windows build.
158    - [BUGFIX] Send HTTP settings (max header list size) if necessary.
159    - [BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain ACK frames.
160    - [BUGFIX] Make packet writeable once all STREAM frames are elided.
161    - [BUGFIX] Fix potential null dereference when realloc fails.
162    - cmake: simplify build configuration.
163
1642019-01-28
165    - 1.18.0
166    - [API Change] Can specify clock granularity in engine settings.
167    - [BUGFIX] Pacer uses fixed clock granularity.  Since the change on
168      2018-04-09, it is not necessary to try to approximate the next tick
169      time in the pacer: it can use fix clock granularity specified by
170      the user.
171    - [BUGFIX] Do not tick constantly before handshake is done.
172    - [BUGFIX] Do not exit tick prematurely: reuse packet with ACK.  Even
173      if we cannot allocate *more* packets, we could still be able to write
174      to one already allocated.
175    - [BUGFIX] Do not schedule pacer if there are no lost packets.
176
1772019-01-17
178    - 1.17.15
179    - [BUGFIX] http_client: make sure only one read per on_read() callback
180      is performed in the header conversion bypass (-B) mode.
181    - http_client: with -E, assign random priority when stream is created.
182    - [OPTIMIZATION] On immediate write, place an ACK frame into the first
183      buffered packet if an ACK is queued.  This reduces the number of
184      standalone ACK packets.
185    - [OPTIMIZATION] Allow placing more than one STREAM frame from the same
186      stream into an outgoing packet.  This change minimizes the number of
187      buffered packets required to store several small HTTP messages by
188      virtue of allowing more than one STREAM frame from HEADERS stream in
189      the same packet.
190    - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers when writing to buffered packets.  This
191      causes the headers to be written to the same buffered packet queue,
192      thereby improving packet utilization, especially for small HTTP
193      messages.
194
1952019-01-16
196    - 1.17.14
197    - [FEATURE] http_client can now collect stats: time to connect, TTFB,
198      time to download, requests per seconds, and bandwidth.  See -t flag.
199    - [BUGFIX] http_client: -B, -K, and -r can be used at the same time.
200    - [BUGFIX] http_client: do not display cert chain before each request.
201      Now this is only done once per connection, if the handshake is
202      successful and -a option is given.
203    - [BUGFIX] Do not wait to dispatch on_close() after reading.  If a
204      stream is scheduled to be closed after on_read() callback returns,
205      close it immediately instead of waiting until the end of the tick.
206      If client creates new request from on_close() event, they will be
207      processed in the same tick instead of waiting for the next one.
208    - [BUGFIX] HEADERS stream is critical: always treat it with highest
209      priority.
210
2112019-01-10
212    - 1.17.12
213    - [FEATURE] http_client can now issue parallel requests in the context
214      of a single connection.  See -w option.
215
2162019-01-03
217    - 1.17.11
218    - Fix strict aliasing warning in optimized compilation.
219
2202018-12-27
221    - 1.17.10
222    - Fix the example program to be able to use parallel connections
223      again.  (See the -n argument.)
224
2252018-12-18
226    - 1.17.9
227    - [BUGFIX] Engine: reduce minimum batch size from 256 to 4
228
2292018-12-10
230    - 1.17.8
231    - [BUGFIX] Fix compilation on FreeBSD and 32-bit Linux
232
2332018-12-03
234    - 1.17.7
235    - [BUGFIX] Do not unset PING alarm before ringing expired alarms.
236      This prevented PING from ever being sent.
237
2382018-11-29
239    - 1.17.6
240    - Add failsafe: resume sending packets after some time
241
242      The change puts a 1-second limit on the amount of time the engine
243      will not send packets after some packets are delayed.  This makes
244      the library robust in case the user does not unblock the engine
245      explicitly using lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() call.
246
247    - [BUGFIX] Handle corner cases in send controller when packets are
248      a) delayed or b) dropped during repackaging.
249    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak: destroy buffered packets during controller
250      cleanup.
251
2522018-11-16
253    - 1.17.3
254    - [BUGFIX] Do not send STOP_WAITING frames when using Q044
255
2562018-10-19
257    - 1.17.2
258    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak in test_frame_rw unit test.
259    - [BUGFIX] Parsing packets with short IETF header: do not overwrite
260      flags.  (Only a problem in unit tests -- benign otherwise.)
261
2622018-10-16
263    - 1.17.0
264    - [API Change] Packet out Memory Interface (PMI) update:
265      - Split PMI pool return into pmi_release and pmi_return
266      - PMI callbacks take peer_ctx and is_ipv6 arguments
267    - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free when certificate is updated
268    - Silence gcc warning in optimized mode by performing useless
269      initialization
270    - cmake: use the standard variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE instead of
271      DEVEL_MODE
272
2732018-10-03
274    - 1.16.0
275    - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_n_avail_streams()
276    - [BUGFIX] only dispatch crypto stream read events if WANT_READ is on
277
2782018-09-27
279    - 1.15.0
280    - [API Change] Add LSCONN_ST_PEER_GOING_AWAY to the list of conn statuses
281    - [BUGFIX] free uncompressed headers correctly when error occurs
282
2832018-09-12
284    - 1.14.3
285    - [BUGFIX] Do not abort conn on STREAM frame for a reset stream
286    - [BUGFIX] Drop packets that would become empty due to repackaging.
287      Packets on the scheduled queue may be marked for repackaging.
288      Frames such as ACK frame that are never resent are removed from
289      repackaged packets.  We must check that the newly repackaged packet
290      would not be empty.  If it would be, it is destroyed instead and
291      the next packet on the scheduled queue is used.  Note that this
292      change only affects the logic to return the next packet to be sent.
293      Lost packets that are being rescheduled are already processed in
294      this fashion.
295    - Byteswap CID before logging it - this makes it match Chrome CIDs.
296      (Except Q035, which is the last little-endian GQUIC version we
297      support.)
298
2992018-09-06
300    - 1.14.0
301    - [API Change] Disable packet sending if full batch cannot be sent
302      If lsquic_packets_out_f() cannot send the whole batch, disable
303      packet sending until lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() is called.
304    - [BUGFIX] Handle case when STREAM frame does not fit.
305    - [BUGFIX] Always allow incoming STREAM frames to overlap.  Peers
306      may send overlapping STREAM frames even if using versions older
307      than Q043.
308    - Custom header set fixes:
309      - set "FIN reached" flag when custom header with FIN flag is
310        claimed;
311      - do not return custom header set for a reset stream.
312
3132018-08-27
314
315    - 1.13.0
316    - [FEATURE, API Change] Add ability to create custom header set
317      objects via callbacks.  This avoids reading and re-parsing
318      headers from the stream.
319
3202018-08-27
321
322    - 1.12.4
323    - Fix memory leak when engine is destroyed
324    - Fix memory leak in http_client
325    - Fix gcc warning in unit tests
326
3272018-08-22
328
329    - 1.12.3
330    - [BUGFIX] Fix duplicate STREAM frame detection
331
3322018-08-20
333
334    - 1.12.2
335    - [BUGFIX] Update count of scheduled bytes when adjusting size of
336      an already-scheduled packet.
337    - Emit info instead of warning messages when stream is used in
338      unexpected ways.
339
3402018-08-17
341
342    - 1.12.0
343    - [FEATURE, API Change] Add support for certificate verification
344
3452018-08-16
346
347    - 1.11.1
348    - [BUGFIX] Fix STOP_WAITING frame processing in the new Q044 code
349
3502018-08-15
351
352    - 1.11.0
353    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q044.
354
3552018-08-09
356
357    - 1.10.2
358    - [BUGFIX] Don't go over limit when creating delayed streams
359
3602018-07-10
361
362    - 1.10.1
363    - [BUGFIX]  process connections after each batch of packets is read
364      This avoids a problem of accumulating a very large list of packets
365      (possible when speeds are high and socket's receive buffer is large)
366      and processing it all at once.
367    - If glibc is older than 2.17, link with rt.  This is necessary for
368      clock_getres(2).
369    - Add version macros to lsquic.h; remove unnecessary includes.
370
3712018-06-13
372
373    - [BUGFIX] allow multiple parallel connections by default
374
375      Use the original method of tracking connections by CIDs by default.
376      If zero-sized CID support is turned on, connections are tracked by
377      the address.  A new connection is not created if another connection
378      is using the same network address
379
3802018-05-30
381
382    - [FEATURE, API CHANGE] Support zero-sized CIDs in received packets
383
3842018-05-24
385
386    - Close connection properly when packet encryption fails
387
3882018-05-23
389
390    - [BUGFIX] Do not produce packet sequence gaps due to delayed packets
391
3922018-05-21
393
394    - [API Change] Add optional callback to call when handshake is done
395    - [API Change, BUGFIX] After send failure, wait until transport available
396
3972018-05-18
398
399    - [API] Expose useful lsquic_ver2str[] in lsquic.h
400    - [BUGFIX] Do not produce packet sequence gaps due to STREAM frame elision
401    - Improve checks of number of incoming streams limit and associated
402      error reporting.
403    - [BUGFIX] Command-line option `-6` now works correctly.
404
4052018-05-16
406
407    - [FEATURE] DNS resolution
408    - [BUGFIX] Frame insertion mis-ID as overlap instead of dup
409    - http_client: fix priority range generated by -E flag
410
4112018-05-09
412
413    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q043.
414    - Support for versions Q037, Q038, Q041, and Q042 has been removed.
415    - Fix typo in debug message.
416    - Fix code indentation.
417    - Add /* fallthru */ comment to stop newer gcc from complaining.
418    - Logger: fix compilation of optimized Windows build.
419
4202018-05-04
421
422    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q042.
423    - Remove comment: MSPC is obsolete (no code changes)
424    - Prog: use lsquic_str2ver() when processing -o version flag
425    - Remove unused CTIM and SRBF transport parameters
426    - Disable QUIC versions Q037 and Q038 by default
427    - Fix Windows compilation by including compat header file in
428      lshpack.c
429    - Address warnings produced by newer versions of gcc
430    - Future-proof: turn off -Werror
431
4322018-05-02
433
434    - [BUGFIX] Make lsquic_conn_quic_version() available
435    - Switch to using ls-hpack 1.1
436    - [BUGFIX] Do not ignore stream resets after receiving FIN
437
4382018-04-27
439
440    - HPACK: do not allow header block to end with table size update.
441
4422018-04-25
443
444    - [BUGFIX] Do not create gap in sent packnos when squeezing delayed
445      packets.
446    - [BUGFIX] sendctl checks for all unacked bytes, not just retx bytes.
447    - [BUGFIX] connections with blocked scheduled packets are not tickable
448      for sending.
449    - [BUGFIX] Conn is tickable if it wants to send a connection-level
450      frame.
451
4522018-04-23
453
454    - Fix busy loop: tickable must make progress.  When connection is
455      self-reporting as tickable, it must make progress when ticked.  There
456      are two issues:
457        1. If there are buffered packets, the connection is only tickable if
458           they can be sent out.
459        2. A connection is tickable if there are streams on the servicing
460           queue.  When the tick occurs, we must service the stream
461           independent of whether any packets are sent.
462    - Fix assertion in pacer which can be incorrect under some
463      conditions.
464    - cmake: do not turn on address sanitizer if in Travis.

483    [API Change, OPTIMIZATION] Only process conns that need to be processed
484
485    The API is simplified: do not expose the user code to several
486    queues.  A "connection queue" is now an internal concept.
487    The user processes connections using the single function
488    lsquic_engine_process_conns().  When this function is called,
489    only those connections are processed that need to be processed.
490    A connection needs to be processed when:
491
492        1. New incoming packets have been fed to the connection.
493        2. User wants to read from a stream that is readable.
494        3. User wants to write to a stream that is writeable.
495        4. There are buffered packets that can be sent out.  (This
496           means that the user wrote to a stream outside of the
497           lsquic library callback.)
498        5. A control frame (such as BLOCKED) needs to be sent out.
499        6. A stream needs to be serviced or delayed stream needs to
500           be created.
501        7. An alarm rings.
502        8. Pacer timer expires.
503
504    To achieve this, the library places the connections into two
505    priority queues (min heaps):
506
507        1. Tickable Queue; and
508        2. Advisory Tick Time queue (ATTQ).
509
510    Each time lsquic_engine_process_conns() is called, the Tickable
511    Queue is emptied.  After the connections have been ticked, they are
512    queried again: if a connection is not being closed, it is placed
513    either in the Tickable Queue if it is ready to be ticked again or
514    it is placed in the Advisory Tick Time Queue.  It is assumed that
515    a connection always has at least one timer set (the idle alarm).
516
517    The connections in the Tickable Queue are arranged in the least
518    recently ticked order.  This lets connections that have been quiet
519    longer to get their packets scheduled first.
520
521    This change means that the library no longer needs to be ticked
522    periodically.  The user code can query the library when is the
523    next tick event and schedule it exactly.  When connections are
524    processed, only the tickable connections are processed, not *all*
525    the connections.  When there are no tick events, it means that no
526    timer event is necessary -- only the file descriptor READ event
527    is active.
528
529    The following are improvements and simplifications that have
530    been triggered:
531
532        - Queue of connections with incoming packets is gone.
533        - "Pending Read/Write Events" Queue is gone (along with its
534          history and progress checks).  This queue has become the
535          Tickable Queue.
536        - The connection hash no longer needs to track the connection
537          insertion order.

546
547    - [OPTIMIZATION] Merge series of ACKs if possible
548
549      Parsed single-range ACK frames (that is the majority of frames) are
550      saved in the connection and their processing is deferred until the
551      connection is ticked.  If several ACKs come in a series between
552      adjacent ticks, we check whether the latest ACK is a strict superset
553      of the saved ACK.  If it is, the older ACK is not processed.
554
555      If ACK frames can be merged, they are merged and only one of them is
556      either processed or saved.
557
558    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up ACK verification by simplifying send history.
559
560      Never generate a gap in the sent packet number sequence.  This reduces
561      the send history to a single number instead of potentially a series of
562      packet ranges and thereby speeds up ACK verification.
563
564      By default, detecting a gap in the send history is not fatal: only a
565      single warning is generated per connection.  The connection can continue
566      to operate even if the ACK verification code is not able to detect some
567      inconsistencies.
568
569    - [OPTIMIZATION] Rearrange the lsquic_send_ctl struct
570
571      The first part of struct lsquic_send_ctl now consists of members that
572      are used in lsquic_send_ctl_got_ack() (in the absense of packet loss,
573      which is the normal case).  To speed up reads and writes, we no longer
574      try to save space by using 8- and 16-bit integers.  Use regular integer
575      width for everything.
576
577    - [OPTIMIZATION] Cache size of sent packet.
578
579    - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of the largest ACKed in packet_out
580
581      Instead of parsing our own ACK frames when packet has been acked,
582      use the value saved in the packet_out structure when the ACK frame
583      was generated.
584
585    - [OPTIMIZATION] Take RTT sampling conditional out of ACK loop
586
587    - [OPTIMIZATION] ACK processing: only call clock_gettime() if needed
588
589    - [OPTIMIZATION] Several code-level optimizations to ACK processing.

6372017-10-31
638
639    - [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone.  The stream no
640      longer opens files and deals with file descriptors.  (Among other
641      things, this makes the code more portable.)  Three writing functions
642      are provided:
643
644        lsquic_stream_write
645        lsquic_stream_writev
646        lsquic_stream_writef    (NEW)
647
648      lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function
649      pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement.
650      This is the most flexible way.  lsquic_stream_write() and
651      lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around
652      lsquic_stream_writef().
653
654    - [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the
655      on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer,
656      bypassing auxiliary data structures.  This reduces amount of memory
657      required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited
658      by the congestion window.
659
660      To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N
661      outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to
662      by any stream.  One half of these are reserved for the highest
663      priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams.  This way,
664      low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams
665      and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send
666      their packets out.
667
668      The algorithm is as follows:
669
670      - When user writes to stream outside of the callback:
671        - If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the
672          reserved N/2 queue or fail.
673            (The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) --
674             rather than N/2, allowing high-priority streams to write as
675             much as can be sent.)
676        - If the stream is not the highest priority, try to place the
677          data onto the reserved N/2 queue or fail.
678      - When tick occurs *and* more packets can be scheduled:
679        - Transfer packets from the high N/2 queue to the scheduled
680          queue.
681        - If more scheduling is allowed:
682          - Call on_write callbacks for highest-priority streams,
683            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue.
684        - If more scheduling is allowed:
685          - Transfer packets from the low N/2 queue to the scheduled
686            queue.
687        - If more scheduling is allowed:
688          - Call on_write callbacks for non-highest-priority streams,
689            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue
690
691      The number N is currently 20, but it could be varied based on
692      resource usage.
693
694    - If stream is created due to incoming headers, make headers readable
695      from on_new.
696
697    - Outgoing packets are no longer marked non-writeable to prevent placing
698      more than one STREAM frame from the same stream into a single packet.
699      This property is maintained via code flow and an explicit check.
700      Packets for stream data are allocated using a special function.
701
702    - STREAM frame elision is cheaper, as we only perform it if a reset
703      stream has outgoing packets referencing it.
704
705    - lsquic_packet_out_t is smaller, as stream_rec elements are now
706      inside a union.
