146    - Revert the 2.22.1 lsquic_is_valid_hs_packet change.  All that was
147      necessary is a change to the way we call it in lsquic_engine.  No
148      change to the function itself is required.
149
1502020-10-08
151    - 2.22.1

3032020-07-06
304    - 2.18.0
305    - [API] Rename "0-RTT" to "session resumption." In IETF QUIC, "0-RTT"
306      always refers to early data, meaning a request that the server can
307      reply to in the very first return flight.  A more appropriate name
308      for what we support on the client site is "session resumption," which
309      is standard TLS terminology.  Later, when we add support for 0-RTT
310      (early data), we can use the 0-RTT terminology again, this time in
311      proper context.

373    - Use ls-hpack 2.2.1.
374    - Turn off unconditional extra checks for IETF clients.
375    - Extra checks: don't verify sent size of hello packets.  Client
376      changes DCID length and this check will fail.

646    - 2.7.1
647    - [BUGFIX] client: don't call ignore_init() in middle of batch send.
648      ignore_init() makes an assumption that the send controller has access
649      to all outgoing packets.  This change wraps a few IETF full connection
650      methods to delay calling ignore_init() until the engine returns all
651      outgoing packets that were batched.
652    - [BUGFIX] set errno to EAGAIN if sendmmsg() can't send all of them.
653      This needs to be done because the value of errno may be lost on

855    - [BUGFIX] Ensure that Largest Observed does not decrease in ACKs we
856      send.  ACK frames placed in packets in buffered queues (optimization
857      introduced in 1.17.15) can be preceded by an ACK frame generated later.
858      In this case, the older ACK frame should not be sent out, as Chromium-
859      based servers flags decrease in the ACK frame's Largest Observed value
860      as an error.
861
8622019-03-05
863    - 1.19.5
864    - [BUGFIX] Use correct public key from PUBS based on KEXS index.
865    - [BUGFIX] Check flags before dispatching writes, avoiding assert.
866    - [BUGFIX] Set :scheme to "https" (instead of "HTTP").
867
8682019-02-25
869    - 1.19.4
870    - [BUGFIX] Check buffer bounds when looking up version in 0-RTT blob.
871    - [BUGFIX] http_client: don't fetch 0-rtt info if handshake failed.
872    - Log number of pacer calls at DEBUG, rather than NOTICE, level.
873
8742019-02-18
875    - 1.19.3
876    - [BUGFIX] Q044: don't encode packet number in 6 bytes.  Six-byte
877      packet number encoding does not exist in Q044.  This fixes a
878      regression introduced in '[BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain
879      ACK frames' -- we need to keep QUIC version in mind when selecting
880      the longest possible packet number encoding used for the buffered
881      packet that carries the ACK.
882    - [BUGFIX] Do not increase CWND when timeout occurs.
883    - http_client: support setting handshake timeout on command line.
884      Use -o handshake_to=timeout.
885    - http_client: use -k to connect UDP socket to pick up ICMP errors.
886    - http_client: allow pathless mode, when only handshake is performed
887      without issuing any requests.  This can be done by simply not
888      specifying a -p flag on the command line.
889
8902019-02-11
891    - 1.19.2
892    - [BUGFIX] Begin negotiation with version provided in 0-RTT info.

896    - 1.19.1
897    - [BUGFIX] Fix Windows build.
898
8992019-02-04
900    - 1.19.0
901    - [FEATURE, API Change] 0-RTT support.  Add function to export 0-RTT
902      information; it can be supplied to a subsequent connect() call.
903    - [FEATURE] Add -0 flag to http_client to exercise 0-RTT support.
904    - [BUGFIX] Resuscitate the Windows build.
905    - [BUGFIX] Send HTTP settings (max header list size) if necessary.
906    - [BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain ACK frames.
907    - [BUGFIX] Make packet writeable once all STREAM frames are elided.
908    - [BUGFIX] Fix potential null dereference when realloc fails.
909    - cmake: simplify build configuration.
910
9112019-01-28
912    - 1.18.0
913    - [API Change] Can specify clock granularity in engine settings.
914    - [BUGFIX] Pacer uses fixed clock granularity.  Since the change on
915      2018-04-09, it is not necessary to try to approximate the next tick
916      time in the pacer: it can use fix clock granularity specified by
917      the user.
918    - [BUGFIX] Do not tick constantly before handshake is done.
919    - [BUGFIX] Do not exit tick prematurely: reuse packet with ACK.  Even
920      if we cannot allocate *more* packets, we could still be able to write
921      to one already allocated.
922    - [BUGFIX] Do not schedule pacer if there are no lost packets.
923
9242019-01-17
925    - 1.17.15
926    - [BUGFIX] http_client: make sure only one read per on_read() callback
927      is performed in the header conversion bypass (-B) mode.
928    - http_client: with -E, assign random priority when stream is created.
929    - [OPTIMIZATION] On immediate write, place an ACK frame into the first
930      buffered packet if an ACK is queued.  This reduces the number of
931      standalone ACK packets.
932    - [OPTIMIZATION] Allow placing more than one STREAM frame from the same
933      stream into an outgoing packet.  This change minimizes the number of
934      buffered packets required to store several small HTTP messages by
935      virtue of allowing more than one STREAM frame from HEADERS stream in
936      the same packet.
937    - [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers when writing to buffered packets.  This
938      causes the headers to be written to the same buffered packet queue,
939      thereby improving packet utilization, especially for small HTTP
940      messages.
941
9422019-01-16
943    - 1.17.14
944    - [FEATURE] http_client can now collect stats: time to connect, TTFB,
945      time to download, requests per seconds, and bandwidth.  See -t flag.
946    - [BUGFIX] http_client: -B, -K, and -r can be used at the same time.
947    - [BUGFIX] http_client: do not display cert chain before each request.
948      Now this is only done once per connection, if the handshake is
949      successful and -a option is given.
950    - [BUGFIX] Do not wait to dispatch on_close() after reading.  If a
951      stream is scheduled to be closed after on_read() callback returns,
952      close it immediately instead of waiting until the end of the tick.
953      If client creates new request from on_close() event, they will be
954      processed in the same tick instead of waiting for the next one.
955    - [BUGFIX] HEADERS stream is critical: always treat it with highest
956      priority.
957
9582019-01-10
959    - 1.17.12
960    - [FEATURE] http_client can now issue parallel requests in the context

979
9802018-12-03
981    - 1.17.7
982    - [BUGFIX] Do not unset PING alarm before ringing expired alarms.
983      This prevented PING from ever being sent.
984
9852018-11-29
986    - 1.17.6
987    - Add failsafe: resume sending packets after some time
988
989      The change puts a 1-second limit on the amount of time the engine
990      will not send packets after some packets are delayed.  This makes
991      the library robust in case the user does not unblock the engine
992      explicitly using lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() call.
993
994    - [BUGFIX] Handle corner cases in send controller when packets are
995      a) delayed or b) dropped during repackaging.
996    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak: destroy buffered packets during controller
997      cleanup.

1005    - [BUGFIX] Memory leak in test_frame_rw unit test.

1008
10092018-10-16
1010    - 1.17.0
1011    - [API Change] Packet out Memory Interface (PMI) update:
1012      - Split PMI pool return into pmi_release and pmi_return
1013      - PMI callbacks take peer_ctx and is_ipv6 arguments
1014    - [BUGFIX] Fix use-after-free when certificate is updated
1015    - Silence gcc warning in optimized mode by performing useless
1016      initialization
1017    - cmake: use the standard variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE instead of

1029
10302018-09-12
1031    - 1.14.3
1032    - [BUGFIX] Do not abort conn on STREAM frame for a reset stream
1033    - [BUGFIX] Drop packets that would become empty due to repackaging.
1034      Packets on the scheduled queue may be marked for repackaging.
1035      Frames such as ACK frame that are never resent are removed from
1036      repackaged packets.  We must check that the newly repackaged packet
1037      would not be empty.  If it would be, it is destroyed instead and
1038      the next packet on the scheduled queue is used.  Note that this
1039      change only affects the logic to return the next packet to be sent.
1040      Lost packets that are being rescheduled are already processed in
1041      this fashion.
1042    - Byteswap CID before logging it - this makes it match Chrome CIDs.
1043      (Except Q035, which is the last little-endian GQUIC version we
1044      support.)

10462018-09-06
1047    - 1.14.0
1048    - [API Change] Disable packet sending if full batch cannot be sent
1049      If lsquic_packets_out_f() cannot send the whole batch, disable
1050      packet sending until lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() is called.
1051    - [BUGFIX] Handle case when STREAM frame does not fit.
1052    - [BUGFIX] Always allow incoming STREAM frames to overlap.  Peers
1053      may send overlapping STREAM frames even if using versions older
1054      than Q043.
1055    - Custom header set fixes:
1056      - set "FIN reached" flag when custom header with FIN flag is
1057        claimed;
1058      - do not return custom header set for a reset stream.
1059
10602018-08-27
1061
1062    - 1.13.0
1063    - [FEATURE, API Change] Add ability to create custom header set

1110    - [BUGFIX]  process connections after each batch of packets is read
1111      This avoids a problem of accumulating a very large list of packets
1112      (possible when speeds are high and socket's receive buffer is large)
1113      and processing it all at once.
1114    - If glibc is older than 2.17, link with rt.  This is necessary for

1122      Use the original method of tracking connections by CIDs by default.
1123      If zero-sized CID support is turned on, connections are tracked by

1203      are two issues:
1204        1. If there are buffered packets, the connection is only tickable if
1205           they can be sent out.
1206        2. A connection is tickable if there are streams on the servicing
1207           queue.  When the tick occurs, we must service the stream
1208           independent of whether any packets are sent.
1209    - Fix assertion in pacer which can be incorrect under some

1229
1230    [API Change, OPTIMIZATION] Only process conns that need to be processed
1231
1232    The API is simplified: do not expose the user code to several
1233    queues.  A "connection queue" is now an internal concept.
1234    The user processes connections using the single function
1235    lsquic_engine_process_conns().  When this function is called,
1236    only those connections are processed that need to be processed.
1237    A connection needs to be processed when:
1238
1239        1. New incoming packets have been fed to the connection.
1240        2. User wants to read from a stream that is readable.
1241        3. User wants to write to a stream that is writeable.
1242        4. There are buffered packets that can be sent out.  (This
1243           means that the user wrote to a stream outside of the
1244           lsquic library callback.)
1245        5. A control frame (such as BLOCKED) needs to be sent out.
1246        6. A stream needs to be serviced or delayed stream needs to
1247           be created.
1248        7. An alarm rings.
1249        8. Pacer timer expires.
1250
1251    To achieve this, the library places the connections into two
1252    priority queues (min heaps):
1253
1254        1. Tickable Queue; and
1255        2. Advisory Tick Time queue (ATTQ).
1256
1257    Each time lsquic_engine_process_conns() is called, the Tickable
1258    Queue is emptied.  After the connections have been ticked, they are
1259    queried again: if a connection is not being closed, it is placed
1260    either in the Tickable Queue if it is ready to be ticked again or
1261    it is placed in the Advisory Tick Time Queue.  It is assumed that
1262    a connection always has at least one timer set (the idle alarm).
1263
1264    The connections in the Tickable Queue are arranged in the least
1265    recently ticked order.  This lets connections that have been quiet
1266    longer to get their packets scheduled first.
1267
1268    This change means that the library no longer needs to be ticked
1269    periodically.  The user code can query the library when is the
1270    next tick event and schedule it exactly.  When connections are
1271    processed, only the tickable connections are processed, not *all*
1272    the connections.  When there are no tick events, it means that no
1273    timer event is necessary -- only the file descriptor READ event
1274    is active.
1275
1276    The following are improvements and simplifications that have
1277    been triggered:
1278
1279        - Queue of connections with incoming packets is gone.
1280        - "Pending Read/Write Events" Queue is gone (along with its
1281          history and progress checks).  This queue has become the
1282          Tickable Queue.
1283        - The connection hash no longer needs to track the connection
1284          insertion order.

1294    - [OPTIMIZATION] Merge series of ACKs if possible
1295
1296      Parsed single-range ACK frames (that is the majority of frames) are
1297      saved in the connection and their processing is deferred until the
1298      connection is ticked.  If several ACKs come in a series between
1299      adjacent ticks, we check whether the latest ACK is a strict superset
1300      of the saved ACK.  If it is, the older ACK is not processed.
1301
1302      If ACK frames can be merged, they are merged and only one of them is
1303      either processed or saved.
1304
1305    - [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up ACK verification by simplifying send history.
1306
1307      Never generate a gap in the sent packet number sequence.  This reduces
1308      the send history to a single number instead of potentially a series of
1309      packet ranges and thereby speeds up ACK verification.
1310
1311      By default, detecting a gap in the send history is not fatal: only a
1312      single warning is generated per connection.  The connection can continue
1313      to operate even if the ACK verification code is not able to detect some
1314      inconsistencies.
1315
1316    - [OPTIMIZATION] Rearrange the lsquic_send_ctl struct
1317
1318      The first part of struct lsquic_send_ctl now consists of members that
1319      are used in lsquic_send_ctl_got_ack() (in the absense of packet loss,
1320      which is the normal case).  To speed up reads and writes, we no longer
1321      try to save space by using 8- and 16-bit integers.  Use regular integer
1322      width for everything.
1323
1324    - [OPTIMIZATION] Cache size of sent packet.
1325
1326    - [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of the largest ACKed in packet_out
1327
1328      Instead of parsing our own ACK frames when packet has been acked,
1329      use the value saved in the packet_out structure when the ACK frame
1330      was generated.
1331
1332    - [OPTIMIZATION] Take RTT sampling conditional out of ACK loop
1333
1334    - [OPTIMIZATION] ACK processing: only call clock_gettime() if needed
1335
1336    - [OPTIMIZATION] Several code-level optimizations to ACK processing.
1337
1338    - Fix: http_client: fix -I flag; switch assert() to abort()

1383
13842017-10-31
1385
1386    - [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone.  The stream no
1387      longer opens files and deals with file descriptors.  (Among other
1388      things, this makes the code more portable.)  Three writing functions
1389      are provided:
1390
1391        lsquic_stream_write
1392        lsquic_stream_writev
1393        lsquic_stream_writef    (NEW)
1394
1395      lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function
1396      pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement.
1397      This is the most flexible way.  lsquic_stream_write() and
1398      lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around
1399      lsquic_stream_writef().
1400
1401    - [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the
1402      on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer,
1403      bypassing auxiliary data structures.  This reduces amount of memory
1404      required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited
1405      by the congestion window.
1406
1407      To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N
1408      outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to
1409      by any stream.  One half of these are reserved for the highest
1410      priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams.  This way,
1411      low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams
1412      and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send
1413      their packets out.
1414
1415      The algorithm is as follows:
1416
1417      - When user writes to stream outside of the callback:
1418        - If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the
1419          reserved N/2 queue or fail.
1420            (The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) --
1421             rather than N/2, allowing high-priority streams to write as
1422             much as can be sent.)
1423        - If the stream is not the highest priority, try to place the
1424          data onto the reserved N/2 queue or fail.
1425      - When tick occurs *and* more packets can be scheduled:
1426        - Transfer packets from the high N/2 queue to the scheduled
1427          queue.
1428        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1429          - Call on_write callbacks for highest-priority streams,
1430            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue.
1431        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1432          - Transfer packets from the low N/2 queue to the scheduled
1433            queue.
1434        - If more scheduling is allowed:
1435          - Call on_write callbacks for non-highest-priority streams,
1436            placing resulting packets directly onto the scheduled queue
1437
1438      The number N is currently 20, but it could be varied based on
1439      resource usage.
1440
1441    - If stream is created due to incoming headers, make headers readable
1442      from on_new.
1443
1444    - Outgoing packets are no longer marked non-writeable to prevent placing
1445      more than one STREAM frame from the same stream into a single packet.
1446      This property is maintained via code flow and an explicit check.
1447      Packets for stream data are allocated using a special function.
1448
1449    - STREAM frame elision is cheaper, as we only perform it if a reset
1450      stream has outgoing packets referencing it.
1451
1452    - lsquic_packet_out_t is smaller, as stream_rec elements are now
1453      inside a union.
