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

82    - [BUGFIX] Fix unit tests
83
842019-09-12
85    - 2.3.0
86    - [FEATURE] BBR congestion control is on by default
87    - [BUGFIX] BBR app-limited logic
88    - [BUGFIX] Fix uninitialized warnings in IETF
89    - [BUGFIX] Update ls-qpack to v0.9.14
90    - [CLEANUP] Code cleanup
91
922019-09-11
93    - 2.2.0
94    - [FEATURE] Server code is included in the library
95    - [FEATURE] IETF QUIC and HTTP/3 Support (ID-22)
96
972019-05-13
98    - 1.21.2
99    - [OPTIMIZATION] HPACK: use history to improve compression performance
100
1012019-05-06
102    - 1.21.1
103    - [BUGFIX] If FIN or RST not received, don't delay stream destruction.
104    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up HPACK encoder by using same hash value to
105      search static and dynamic tables.
106
1072019-04-12
108    - 1.21.0
109    - [FEATURE] Add qlog log module.
110
1112019-04-01
112    - 1.20.0
113    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q046.
114
1152019-03-19
116    - 1.19.6
117    - [BUGFIX] Ensure that Largest Observed does not decrease in ACKs we
118      send.  ACK frames placed in packets in buffered queues (optimization
119      introduced in 1.17.15) can be preceded by an ACK frame generated later.
120      In this case, the older ACK frame should not be sent out, as Chromium-
121      based servers flags decrease in the ACK frame's Largest Observed value
122      as an error.
123
1242019-03-05
125    - 1.19.5
126    - [BUGFIX] Use correct public key from PUBS based on KEXS index.
127    - [BUGFIX] Check flags before dispatching writes, avoiding assert.
128    - [BUGFIX] Set :scheme to "https" (instead of "HTTP").
129
1302019-02-25
131    - 1.19.4
132    - [BUGFIX] Check buffer bounds when looking up version in 0-RTT blob.
133    - [BUGFIX] http_client: don't fetch 0-rtt info if handshake failed.
134    - Log number of pacer calls at DEBUG, rather than NOTICE, level.
135
1362019-02-18
137    - 1.19.3
138    - [BUGFIX] Q044: don't encode packet number in 6 bytes.  Six-byte
139      packet number encoding does not exist in Q044.  This fixes a
140      regression introduced in '[BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain
141      ACK frames' -- we need to keep QUIC version in mind when selecting
142      the longest possible packet number encoding used for the buffered
143      packet that carries the ACK.
144    - [BUGFIX] Do not increase CWND when timeout occurs.
145    - http_client: support setting handshake timeout on command line.
146      Use -o handshake_to=timeout.
147    - http_client: use -k to connect UDP socket to pick up ICMP errors.
148    - http_client: allow pathless mode, when only handshake is performed
149      without issuing any requests.  This can be done by simply not
150      specifying a -p flag on the command line.
151
1522019-02-11
153    - 1.19.2
154    - [BUGFIX] Begin negotiation with version provided in 0-RTT info.
155    - [BUGFIX] Version checking in zero_rtt deserialize function.
156
1572019-02-04
158    - 1.19.1
159    - [BUGFIX] Fix Windows build.
160
1612019-02-04
162    - 1.19.0
163    - [FEATURE, API Change] 0-RTT support.  Add function to export 0-RTT
164      information; it can be supplied to a subsequent connect() call.
165    - [FEATURE] Add -0 flag to http_client to exercise 0-RTT support.
166    - [BUGFIX] Resuscitate the Windows build.
167    - [BUGFIX] Send HTTP settings (max header list size) if necessary.
168    - [BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain ACK frames.
169    - [BUGFIX] Make packet writeable once all STREAM frames are elided.
170    - [BUGFIX] Fix potential null dereference when realloc fails.
171    - cmake: simplify build configuration.
172
1732019-01-28
174    - 1.18.0
175    - [API Change] Can specify clock granularity in engine settings.
176    - [BUGFIX] Pacer uses fixed clock granularity.  Since the change on
177      2018-04-09, it is not necessary to try to approximate the next tick
178      time in the pacer: it can use fix clock granularity specified by
179      the user.
180    - [BUGFIX] Do not tick constantly before handshake is done.
181    - [BUGFIX] Do not exit tick prematurely: reuse packet with ACK.  Even
182      if we cannot allocate *more* packets, we could still be able to write
183      to one already allocated.
184    - [BUGFIX] Do not schedule pacer if there are no lost packets.
185
1862019-01-17
187    - 1.17.15
188    - [BUGFIX] http_client: make sure only one read per on_read() callback
189      is performed in the header conversion bypass (-B) mode.
190    - http_client: with -E, assign random priority when stream is created.
191    - [OPTIMIZATION] On immediate write, place an ACK frame into the first
192      buffered packet if an ACK is queued.  This reduces the number of
193      standalone ACK packets.
194    - [OPTIMIZATION] Allow placing more than one STREAM frame from the same
195      stream into an outgoing packet.  This change minimizes the number of
196      buffered packets required to store several small HTTP messages by
197      virtue of allowing more than one STREAM frame from HEADERS stream in
198      the same packet.
199    - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers when writing to buffered packets.  This
200      causes the headers to be written to the same buffered packet queue,
201      thereby improving packet utilization, especially for small HTTP
202      messages.
203
2042019-01-16
205    - 1.17.14
206    - [FEATURE] http_client can now collect stats: time to connect, TTFB,
207      time to download, requests per seconds, and bandwidth.  See -t flag.
208    - [BUGFIX] http_client: -B, -K, and -r can be used at the same time.
209    - [BUGFIX] http_client: do not display cert chain before each request.
210      Now this is only done once per connection, if the handshake is
211      successful and -a option is given.
212    - [BUGFIX] Do not wait to dispatch on_close() after reading.  If a
213      stream is scheduled to be closed after on_read() callback returns,
214      close it immediately instead of waiting until the end of the tick.
215      If client creates new request from on_close() event, they will be
216      processed in the same tick instead of waiting for the next one.
217    - [BUGFIX] HEADERS stream is critical: always treat it with highest
218      priority.
219
2202019-01-10
221    - 1.17.12
222    - [FEATURE] http_client can now issue parallel requests in the context
223      of a single connection.  See -w option.
224
2252019-01-03
226    - 1.17.11
227    - Fix strict aliasing warning in optimized compilation.
228
2292018-12-27
230    - 1.17.10
231    - Fix the example program to be able to use parallel connections
232      again.  (See the -n argument.)
233
2342018-12-18
235    - 1.17.9
236    - [BUGFIX] Engine: reduce minimum batch size from 256 to 4
237
2382018-12-10
239    - 1.17.8
240    - [BUGFIX] Fix compilation on FreeBSD and 32-bit Linux
241
2422018-12-03
243    - 1.17.7
244    - [BUGFIX] Do not unset PING alarm before ringing expired alarms.
245      This prevented PING from ever being sent.
246
2472018-11-29
248    - 1.17.6
249    - Add failsafe: resume sending packets after some time
250
251      The change puts a 1-second limit on the amount of time the engine
252      will not send packets after some packets are delayed.  This makes
253      the library robust in case the user does not unblock the engine
254      explicitly using lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() call.
255
256    - [BUGFIX] Handle corner cases in send controller when packets are
257      a) delayed or b) dropped during repackaging.
258    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak: destroy buffered packets during controller
259      cleanup.
260
2612018-11-16
262    - 1.17.3
263    - [BUGFIX] Do not send STOP_WAITING frames when using Q044
264
2652018-10-19
266    - 1.17.2
267    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak in test_frame_rw unit test.
268    - [BUGFIX] Parsing packets with short IETF header: do not overwrite
269      flags.  (Only a problem in unit tests -- benign otherwise.)
270
2712018-10-16
272    - 1.17.0
273    - [API Change] Packet out Memory Interface (PMI) update:
274      - Split PMI pool return into pmi_release and pmi_return
275      - PMI callbacks take peer_ctx and is_ipv6 arguments
276    - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free when certificate is updated
277    - Silence gcc warning in optimized mode by performing useless
278      initialization
279    - cmake: use the standard variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE instead of
280      DEVEL_MODE
281
2822018-10-03
283    - 1.16.0
284    - [API Change] Add lsquic_conn_n_avail_streams()
285    - [BUGFIX] only dispatch crypto stream read events if WANT_READ is on
286
2872018-09-27
288    - 1.15.0
289    - [API Change] Add LSCONN_ST_PEER_GOING_AWAY to the list of conn statuses
290    - [BUGFIX] free uncompressed headers correctly when error occurs
291
2922018-09-12
293    - 1.14.3
294    - [BUGFIX] Do not abort conn on STREAM frame for a reset stream
295    - [BUGFIX] Drop packets that would become empty due to repackaging.
296      Packets on the scheduled queue may be marked for repackaging.
297      Frames such as ACK frame that are never resent are removed from
298      repackaged packets.  We must check that the newly repackaged packet
299      would not be empty.  If it would be, it is destroyed instead and
300      the next packet on the scheduled queue is used.  Note that this
301      change only affects the logic to return the next packet to be sent.
302      Lost packets that are being rescheduled are already processed in
303      this fashion.
304    - Byteswap CID before logging it - this makes it match Chrome CIDs.
305      (Except Q035, which is the last little-endian GQUIC version we
306      support.)
307
3082018-09-06
309    - 1.14.0
310    - [API Change] Disable packet sending if full batch cannot be sent
311      If lsquic_packets_out_f() cannot send the whole batch, disable
312      packet sending until lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() is called.
313    - [BUGFIX] Handle case when STREAM frame does not fit.
314    - [BUGFIX] Always allow incoming STREAM frames to overlap.  Peers
315      may send overlapping STREAM frames even if using versions older
316      than Q043.
317    - Custom header set fixes:
318      - set "FIN reached" flag when custom header with FIN flag is
319        claimed;
320      - do not return custom header set for a reset stream.
321
3222018-08-27
323
324    - 1.13.0
325    - [FEATURE, API Change] Add ability to create custom header set
326      objects via callbacks.  This avoids reading and re-parsing
327      headers from the stream.
328
3292018-08-27
330
331    - 1.12.4
332    - Fix memory leak when engine is destroyed
333    - Fix memory leak in http_client
334    - Fix gcc warning in unit tests
335
3362018-08-22
337
338    - 1.12.3
339    - [BUGFIX] Fix duplicate STREAM frame detection
340
3412018-08-20
342
343    - 1.12.2
344    - [BUGFIX] Update count of scheduled bytes when adjusting size of
345      an already-scheduled packet.
346    - Emit info instead of warning messages when stream is used in
347      unexpected ways.
348
3492018-08-17
350
351    - 1.12.0
352    - [FEATURE, API Change] Add support for certificate verification
353
3542018-08-16
355
356    - 1.11.1
357    - [BUGFIX] Fix STOP_WAITING frame processing in the new Q044 code
358
3592018-08-15
360
361    - 1.11.0
362    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q044.
363
3642018-08-09
365
366    - 1.10.2
367    - [BUGFIX] Don't go over limit when creating delayed streams
368
3692018-07-10
370
371    - 1.10.1
372    - [BUGFIX]  process connections after each batch of packets is read
373      This avoids a problem of accumulating a very large list of packets
374      (possible when speeds are high and socket's receive buffer is large)
375      and processing it all at once.
376    - If glibc is older than 2.17, link with rt.  This is necessary for
377      clock_getres(2).
378    - Add version macros to lsquic.h; remove unnecessary includes.
379
3802018-06-13
381
382    - [BUGFIX] allow multiple parallel connections by default
383
384      Use the original method of tracking connections by CIDs by default.
385      If zero-sized CID support is turned on, connections are tracked by
386      the address.  A new connection is not created if another connection
387      is using the same network address
388
3892018-05-30
390
391    - [FEATURE, API CHANGE] Support zero-sized CIDs in received packets
392
3932018-05-24
394
395    - Close connection properly when packet encryption fails
396
3972018-05-23
398
399    - [BUGFIX] Do not produce packet sequence gaps due to delayed packets
400
4012018-05-21
402
403    - [API Change] Add optional callback to call when handshake is done
404    - [API Change, BUGFIX] After send failure, wait until transport available
405
4062018-05-18
407
408    - [API] Expose useful lsquic_ver2str[] in lsquic.h
409    - [BUGFIX] Do not produce packet sequence gaps due to STREAM frame elision
410    - Improve checks of number of incoming streams limit and associated
411      error reporting.
412    - [BUGFIX] Command-line option `-6` now works correctly.
413
4142018-05-16
415
416    - [FEATURE] DNS resolution
417    - [BUGFIX] Frame insertion mis-ID as overlap instead of dup
418    - http_client: fix priority range generated by -E flag
419
4202018-05-09
421
422    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q043.
423    - Support for versions Q037, Q038, Q041, and Q042 has been removed.
424    - Fix typo in debug message.
425    - Fix code indentation.
426    - Add /* fallthru */ comment to stop newer gcc from complaining.
427    - Logger: fix compilation of optimized Windows build.
428
4292018-05-04
430
431    - [FEATURE] Add support for Q042.
432    - Remove comment: MSPC is obsolete (no code changes)
433    - Prog: use lsquic_str2ver() when processing -o version flag
434    - Remove unused CTIM and SRBF transport parameters
435    - Disable QUIC versions Q037 and Q038 by default
436    - Fix Windows compilation by including compat header file in
437      lshpack.c
438    - Address warnings produced by newer versions of gcc
439    - Future-proof: turn off -Werror
440
4412018-05-02
442
443    - [BUGFIX] Make lsquic_conn_quic_version() available
444    - Switch to using ls-hpack 1.1
445    - [BUGFIX] Do not ignore stream resets after receiving FIN
446
4472018-04-27
448
449    - HPACK: do not allow header block to end with table size update.
450
4512018-04-25
452

462
463    - Fix busy loop: tickable must make progress.  When connection is
464      self-reporting as tickable, it must make progress when ticked.  There
465      are two issues:
466        1. If there are buffered packets, the connection is only tickable if
467           they can be sent out.
468        2. A connection is tickable if there are streams on the servicing
469           queue.  When the tick occurs, we must service the stream
470           independent of whether any packets are sent.
471    - Fix assertion in pacer which can be incorrect under some
472      conditions.
473    - cmake: do not turn on address sanitizer if in Travis.

492    [API Change, OPTIMIZATION] Only process conns that need to be processed
493
494    The API is simplified: do not expose the user code to several
495    queues.  A "connection queue" is now an internal concept.
496    The user processes connections using the single function
497    lsquic_engine_process_conns().  When this function is called,
498    only those connections are processed that need to be processed.
499    A connection needs to be processed when:
500
501        1. New incoming packets have been fed to the connection.
502        2. User wants to read from a stream that is readable.
503        3. User wants to write to a stream that is writeable.
504        4. There are buffered packets that can be sent out.  (This
505           means that the user wrote to a stream outside of the
506           lsquic library callback.)
507        5. A control frame (such as BLOCKED) needs to be sent out.
508        6. A stream needs to be serviced or delayed stream needs to
509           be created.
510        7. An alarm rings.
511        8. Pacer timer expires.
512
513    To achieve this, the library places the connections into two
514    priority queues (min heaps):
515
516        1. Tickable Queue; and
517        2. Advisory Tick Time queue (ATTQ).
518
519    Each time lsquic_engine_process_conns() is called, the Tickable
520    Queue is emptied.  After the connections have been ticked, they are
521    queried again: if a connection is not being closed, it is placed
522    either in the Tickable Queue if it is ready to be ticked again or
523    it is placed in the Advisory Tick Time Queue.  It is assumed that
524    a connection always has at least one timer set (the idle alarm).
525
526    The connections in the Tickable Queue are arranged in the least
527    recently ticked order.  This lets connections that have been quiet
528    longer to get their packets scheduled first.
529
530    This change means that the library no longer needs to be ticked
531    periodically.  The user code can query the library when is the
532    next tick event and schedule it exactly.  When connections are
533    processed, only the tickable connections are processed, not *all*
534    the connections.  When there are no tick events, it means that no
535    timer event is necessary -- only the file descriptor READ event
536    is active.
537
538    The following are improvements and simplifications that have
539    been triggered:
540
541        - Queue of connections with incoming packets is gone.
542        - "Pending Read/Write Events" Queue is gone (along with its
543          history and progress checks).  This queue has become the
544          Tickable Queue.
545        - The connection hash no longer needs to track the connection
546          insertion order.

555
556    - [OPTIMIZATION] Merge series of ACKs if possible
557
558      Parsed single-range ACK frames (that is the majority of frames) are
559      saved in the connection and their processing is deferred until the
560      connection is ticked.  If several ACKs come in a series between
561      adjacent ticks, we check whether the latest ACK is a strict superset
562      of the saved ACK.  If it is, the older ACK is not processed.
563
564      If ACK frames can be merged, they are merged and only one of them is
565      either processed or saved.
566
567    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up ACK verification by simplifying send history.
568
569      Never generate a gap in the sent packet number sequence.  This reduces
570      the send history to a single number instead of potentially a series of
571      packet ranges and thereby speeds up ACK verification.
572
573      By default, detecting a gap in the send history is not fatal: only a
574      single warning is generated per connection.  The connection can continue
575      to operate even if the ACK verification code is not able to detect some
576      inconsistencies.
577
578    - [OPTIMIZATION] Rearrange the lsquic_send_ctl struct
579
580      The first part of struct lsquic_send_ctl now consists of members that
581      are used in lsquic_send_ctl_got_ack() (in the absense of packet loss,
582      which is the normal case).  To speed up reads and writes, we no longer
583      try to save space by using 8- and 16-bit integers.  Use regular integer
584      width for everything.
585
586    - [OPTIMIZATION] Cache size of sent packet.
587
588    - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of the largest ACKed in packet_out
589
590      Instead of parsing our own ACK frames when packet has been acked,
591      use the value saved in the packet_out structure when the ACK frame
592      was generated.
593
594    - [OPTIMIZATION] Take RTT sampling conditional out of ACK loop
595
596    - [OPTIMIZATION] ACK processing: only call clock_gettime() if needed
597
598    - [OPTIMIZATION] Several code-level optimizations to ACK processing.

645
6462017-10-31
647
648    - [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone.  The stream no
649      longer opens files and deals with file descriptors.  (Among other
650      things, this makes the code more portable.)  Three writing functions
651      are provided:
652
653        lsquic_stream_write
654        lsquic_stream_writev
655        lsquic_stream_writef    (NEW)
656
657      lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function
658      pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement.
659      This is the most flexible way.  lsquic_stream_write() and
660      lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around
661      lsquic_stream_writef().
662
663    - [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the
664      on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer,
665      bypassing auxiliary data structures.  This reduces amount of memory
666      required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited
667      by the congestion window.
668
669      To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N
670      outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to
671      by any stream.  One half of these are reserved for the highest
672      priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams.  This way,
673      low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams
674      and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send
675      their packets out.
676
677      The algorithm is as follows:
678
679      - When user writes to stream outside of the callback:
680        - If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the
681          reserved N/2 queue or fail.
682            (The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) --
683             rather than N/2, allowing high-priority streams to write as
684             much as can be sent.)
685        - If the stream is not the highest priority, try to place the
686          data onto the reserved N/2 queue or fail.
687      - When tick occurs *and* more packets can be scheduled:
688        - Transfer packets from the high N/2 queue to the scheduled
689          queue.
690        - If more scheduling is allowed:
691          - Call on_write callbacks for highest-priority streams,
692            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue.
693        - If more scheduling is allowed:
694          - Transfer packets from the low N/2 queue to the scheduled
695            queue.
696        - If more scheduling is allowed:
697          - Call on_write callbacks for non-highest-priority streams,
698            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue
699
700      The number N is currently 20, but it could be varied based on
701      resource usage.
702
703    - If stream is created due to incoming headers, make headers readable
704      from on_new.
705
706    - Outgoing packets are no longer marked non-writeable to prevent placing
707      more than one STREAM frame from the same stream into a single packet.
708      This property is maintained via code flow and an explicit check.
709      Packets for stream data are allocated using a special function.
710
711    - STREAM frame elision is cheaper, as we only perform it if a reset
712      stream has outgoing packets referencing it.
713
714    - lsquic_packet_out_t is smaller, as stream_rec elements are now
715      inside a union.
