Dear all,

I'm glad to announce the release of GNU libmicrohttpd 0.9.73.
This release brings new features, improvements, and a few fixes.
The most important addition is the new function for vector-backed responses, based on the patch contributed by NASA engineers. Other changes include compatibility with autoconf 2.70+, improved testsuite compatibility with CI systems, fixed and improved MSVC builds, and implemention of ALPN support.

More detailed list of notable changes since version 0.9.72:

API changes:

  • Added new function MHD_create_response_from_iovec(), based on the patch provided by Lawrence Sebald and Damon N. Earp from NASA.
  • Added MHD_OPTION_SIGPIPE_HANDLED_BY_APP daemon option.
  • Added new function MHD_run_wait().
  • Added MHD_OPTION_TLS_NO_ALPN to disable usage of ALPN even if it is supported by TLS library.

New features:

  • Added '--enable-heavy-tests' configure parameter (disabled by default).
  • Implemented support for ALPN.

Improvements and enhancements:

  • Return timeout of zero also for connections awaiting cleanup.
  • Compatibility with autoconf >=2.70, used new autoconf features.
  • Warn user when custom logger option is not the first option.
  • Added information to the header about minimal MHD version when particular symbols were introduced.
  • Updated test certificates to be compatible with modern browsers.
  • Added on-fly detection of UNIX domain sockets and pipes, MHD does not try to use TCP/IP-specific socket options on them.
  • Report more detailed error description in the MHD log for send and receive errors.
  • Enabled bind port autodetection for MSVC builds.

Fixes:

  • Fixed PostProcessor to always properly stop iteration when application callback tells it to do so.
  • Fixed MD5 digest authorization broken when compiled without variable length arrays support (notably with MSVC).
  • Fixed detection of type of send errors on W32.

It's worth noting the FreeBSD 13 implementation of EventFD has been tested and works out-of-box, without any modifications or patches.
