- [DEBUG] QPACK decoder handler: log header error code.
2019-12-05
- 2.7.1
- [BUGFIX] client: don't call ignore_init() in middle of batch send.
ignore_init() makes an assumption that the send controller has access
to all outgoing packets. This change wraps a few IETF full connection
methods to delay calling ignore_init() until the engine returns all
outgoing packets that were batched.
- [BUGFIX] set errno to EAGAIN if sendmmsg() can't send all of them.
This needs to be done because the value of errno may be lost on
some platforms.
- [BUGFIX] Typo that set all bits in sm_qflags lead to crashes.
- [BUGFIX] Do not cancel header block processing after failure, as
QPACK releases the reference in that case.
- [CLEANUP] IETF encrypt: replace assert(0) with a warning.
- Several small improvements to the test server.
2019-11-27
- 2.7.0
- [API, FEATURE] Close connection immediately when ea_packets_out()
fails with errno != EAGAIN. The API change is that errno is now
examined. Make sure to set it if using something other than
sendmsg() to send packets.
- [CLEANUP] Immediate close logic in IETF full conn.
- [CLEANUP] Fix bogus warning about uninitialized `pair' variable.
2019-11-22

- [BUGFIX] Close DATA frames with empty payload correctly.
2019-11-11

connection.
- [BUGFIX] Client: don't send duplicate reset tokens.

- [FEATURE] Add support for Q046.
2019-03-19
- 1.19.6
- [BUGFIX] Ensure that Largest Observed does not decrease in ACKs we
send. ACK frames placed in packets in buffered queues (optimization
introduced in 1.17.15) can be preceded by an ACK frame generated later.
In this case, the older ACK frame should not be sent out, as Chromium-
based servers flags decrease in the ACK frame's Largest Observed value
as an error.
2019-03-05
- 1.19.5
- [BUGFIX] Use correct public key from PUBS based on KEXS index.

2019-02-25
- 1.19.4
- [BUGFIX] Check buffer bounds when looking up version in 0-RTT blob.
- [BUGFIX] http_client: don't fetch 0-rtt info if handshake failed.
- Log number of pacer calls at DEBUG, rather than NOTICE, level.
2019-02-18
- 1.19.3
- [BUGFIX] Q044: don't encode packet number in 6 bytes. Six-byte
packet number encoding does not exist in Q044. This fixes a
regression introduced in '[BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain
ACK frames' -- we need to keep QUIC version in mind when selecting
the longest possible packet number encoding used for the buffered
packet that carries the ACK.
- [BUGFIX] Do not increase CWND when timeout occurs.
- http_client: support setting handshake timeout on command line.
Use -o handshake_to=timeout.
- http_client: use -k to connect UDP socket to pick up ICMP errors.
- http_client: allow pathless mode, when only handshake is performed
without issuing any requests. This can be done by simply not
specifying a -p flag on the command line.
2019-02-11
- 1.19.2
- [BUGFIX] Begin negotiation with version provided in 0-RTT info.
- [BUGFIX] Version checking in zero_rtt deserialize function.

- 1.19.1
- [BUGFIX] Fix Windows build.
2019-02-04
- 1.19.0
- [FEATURE, API Change] 0-RTT support. Add function to export 0-RTT
information; it can be supplied to a subsequent connect() call.
- [FEATURE] Add -0 flag to http_client to exercise 0-RTT support.
- [BUGFIX] Resuscitate the Windows build.
- [BUGFIX] Send HTTP settings (max header list size) if necessary.
- [BUGFIX] Buffered packets can contain ACK frames.
- [BUGFIX] Make packet writeable once all STREAM frames are elided.
- [BUGFIX] Fix potential null dereference when realloc fails.
- cmake: simplify build configuration.
2019-01-28
- 1.18.0
- [API Change] Can specify clock granularity in engine settings.
- [BUGFIX] Pacer uses fixed clock granularity. Since the change on
2018-04-09, it is not necessary to try to approximate the next tick
time in the pacer: it can use fix clock granularity specified by
the user.
- [BUGFIX] Do not tick constantly before handshake is done.
- [BUGFIX] Do not exit tick prematurely: reuse packet with ACK. Even
if we cannot allocate *more* packets, we could still be able to write
to one already allocated.
- [BUGFIX] Do not schedule pacer if there are no lost packets.
2019-01-17
- 1.17.15
- [BUGFIX] http_client: make sure only one read per on_read() callback
is performed in the header conversion bypass (-B) mode.
- http_client: with -E, assign random priority when stream is created.
- [OPTIMIZATION] On immediate write, place an ACK frame into the first
buffered packet if an ACK is queued. This reduces the number of
standalone ACK packets.
- [OPTIMIZATION] Allow placing more than one STREAM frame from the same
stream into an outgoing packet. This change minimizes the number of
buffered packets required to store several small HTTP messages by
virtue of allowing more than one STREAM frame from HEADERS stream in
the same packet.
- [OPTIMIZATION] Flush headers when writing to buffered packets. This
causes the headers to be written to the same buffered packet queue,
thereby improving packet utilization, especially for small HTTP
messages.
2019-01-16
- 1.17.14
- [FEATURE] http_client can now collect stats: time to connect, TTFB,
time to download, requests per seconds, and bandwidth. See -t flag.
- [BUGFIX] http_client: -B, -K, and -r can be used at the same time.
- [BUGFIX] http_client: do not display cert chain before each request.
Now this is only done once per connection, if the handshake is
successful and -a option is given.
- [BUGFIX] Do not wait to dispatch on_close() after reading. If a
stream is scheduled to be closed after on_read() callback returns,
close it immediately instead of waiting until the end of the tick.
If client creates new request from on_close() event, they will be
processed in the same tick instead of waiting for the next one.
- [BUGFIX] HEADERS stream is critical: always treat it with highest
priority.
2019-01-10
- 1.17.12
- [FEATURE] http_client can now issue parallel requests in the context
of a single connection. See -w option.

- [BUGFIX] Do not unset PING alarm before ringing expired alarms.
This prevented PING from ever being sent.
2018-11-29
- 1.17.6
- Add failsafe: resume sending packets after some time
The change puts a 1-second limit on the amount of time the engine
will not send packets after some packets are delayed. This makes
the library robust in case the user does not unblock the engine
explicitly using lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() call.
- [BUGFIX] Handle corner cases in send controller when packets are
a) delayed or b) dropped during repackaging.
- [BUGFIX] Memory leak: destroy buffered packets during controller
cleanup.
2018-11-16
- 1.17.3

2018-09-12
- 1.14.3
- [BUGFIX] Do not abort conn on STREAM frame for a reset stream
- [BUGFIX] Drop packets that would become empty due to repackaging.
Packets on the scheduled queue may be marked for repackaging.
Frames such as ACK frame that are never resent are removed from
repackaged packets. We must check that the newly repackaged packet
would not be empty. If it would be, it is destroyed instead and
the next packet on the scheduled queue is used. Note that this
change only affects the logic to return the next packet to be sent.
Lost packets that are being rescheduled are already processed in
this fashion.
- Byteswap CID before logging it - this makes it match Chrome CIDs.

If lsquic_packets_out_f() cannot send the whole batch, disable
packet sending until lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets() is called.
- [BUGFIX] Handle case when STREAM frame does not fit.
- [BUGFIX] Always allow incoming STREAM frames to overlap. Peers
may send overlapping STREAM frames even if using versions older
than Q043.

- set "FIN reached" flag when custom header with FIN flag is
claimed;
- do not return custom header set for a reset stream.

- [BUGFIX] Don't go over limit when creating delayed streams
2018-07-10
- 1.10.1
- [BUGFIX] process connections after each batch of packets is read
This avoids a problem of accumulating a very large list of packets
(possible when speeds are high and socket's receive buffer is large)
and processing it all at once.
- If glibc is older than 2.17, link with rt. This is necessary for
clock_getres(2).
- Add version macros to lsquic.h; remove unnecessary includes.
2018-06-13
- [BUGFIX] allow multiple parallel connections by default
Use the original method of tracking connections by CIDs by default.

- [BUGFIX] connections with blocked scheduled packets are not tickable
for sending.
- [BUGFIX] Conn is tickable if it wants to send a connection-level
frame.
2018-04-23
- Fix busy loop: tickable must make progress. When connection is
self-reporting as tickable, it must make progress when ticked. There
are two issues:
1. If there are buffered packets, the connection is only tickable if
they can be sent out.
2. A connection is tickable if there are streams on the servicing
queue. When the tick occurs, we must service the stream
independent of whether any packets are sent.
- Fix assertion in pacer which can be incorrect under some
conditions.
- cmake: do not turn on address sanitizer if in Travis.

- engine: indicate connection as tickable if previous call went
over threshold
2018-04-09
[API Change, OPTIMIZATION] Only process conns that need to be processed
The API is simplified: do not expose the user code to several
queues. A "connection queue" is now an internal concept.
The user processes connections using the single function
lsquic_engine_process_conns(). When this function is called,
only those connections are processed that need to be processed.
A connection needs to be processed when:
1. New incoming packets have been fed to the connection.
2. User wants to read from a stream that is readable.
3. User wants to write to a stream that is writeable.
4. There are buffered packets that can be sent out. (This
means that the user wrote to a stream outside of the
lsquic library callback.)
5. A control frame (such as BLOCKED) needs to be sent out.
6. A stream needs to be serviced or delayed stream needs to
be created.
7. An alarm rings.
8. Pacer timer expires.
To achieve this, the library places the connections into two
priority queues (min heaps):
1. Tickable Queue; and
2. Advisory Tick Time queue (ATTQ).
Each time lsquic_engine_process_conns() is called, the Tickable
Queue is emptied. After the connections have been ticked, they are
queried again: if a connection is not being closed, it is placed
either in the Tickable Queue if it is ready to be ticked again or
it is placed in the Advisory Tick Time Queue. It is assumed that
a connection always has at least one timer set (the idle alarm).
The connections in the Tickable Queue are arranged in the least
recently ticked order. This lets connections that have been quiet
longer to get their packets scheduled first.
This change means that the library no longer needs to be ticked
periodically. The user code can query the library when is the
next tick event and schedule it exactly. When connections are
processed, only the tickable connections are processed, not *all*
the connections. When there are no tick events, it means that no
timer event is necessary -- only the file descriptor READ event
is active.
The following are improvements and simplifications that have
been triggered:
- Queue of connections with incoming packets is gone.
- "Pending Read/Write Events" Queue is gone (along with its
history and progress checks). This queue has become the
Tickable Queue.
- The connection hash no longer needs to track the connection
insertion order.
2018-04-02
- [FEATURE] Windows support
- Reduce stack use -- outgoing packet batch is now allocated on the heap.
2018-03-09
- [OPTIMIZATION] Merge series of ACKs if possible
Parsed single-range ACK frames (that is the majority of frames) are
saved in the connection and their processing is deferred until the
connection is ticked. If several ACKs come in a series between
adjacent ticks, we check whether the latest ACK is a strict superset
of the saved ACK. If it is, the older ACK is not processed.
If ACK frames can be merged, they are merged and only one of them is
either processed or saved.
- [OPTIMIZATION] Speed up ACK verification by simplifying send history.
Never generate a gap in the sent packet number sequence. This reduces
the send history to a single number instead of potentially a series of
packet ranges and thereby speeds up ACK verification.
By default, detecting a gap in the send history is not fatal: only a
single warning is generated per connection. The connection can continue
to operate even if the ACK verification code is not able to detect some
inconsistencies.
- [OPTIMIZATION] Rearrange the lsquic_send_ctl struct
The first part of struct lsquic_send_ctl now consists of members that
are used in lsquic_send_ctl_got_ack() (in the absense of packet loss,
which is the normal case). To speed up reads and writes, we no longer
try to save space by using 8- and 16-bit integers. Use regular integer
width for everything.
- [OPTIMIZATION] Cache size of sent packet.
- [OPTIMIZATION] Keep track of the largest ACKed in packet_out
Instead of parsing our own ACK frames when packet has been acked,
use the value saved in the packet_out structure when the ACK frame
was generated.
- [OPTIMIZATION] Take RTT sampling conditional out of ACK loop
- [OPTIMIZATION] ACK processing: only call clock_gettime() if needed
- [OPTIMIZATION] Several code-level optimizations to ACK processing.
- Fix: http_client: fix -I flag; switch assert() to abort()

- [API Change] Sendfile-like functionality is gone. The stream no
longer opens files and deals with file descriptors. (Among other
things, this makes the code more portable.) Three writing functions
are provided:
lsquic_stream_write
lsquic_stream_writev
lsquic_stream_writef (NEW)
lsquic_stream_writef() is given an abstract reader that has function
pointers for size() and read() functions which the user can implement.
This is the most flexible way. lsquic_stream_write() and
lsquic_stream_writev() are now both implemented as wrappers around
lsquic_stream_writef().
- [OPTIMIZATION] When writing to stream, be it within or without the
on_write() callback, place data directly into packet buffer,
bypassing auxiliary data structures. This reduces amount of memory
required, for the amount of data that can be written is limited
by the congestion window.
To support writes outside the on_write() callback, we keep N
outgoing packet buffers per connection which can be written to
by any stream. One half of these are reserved for the highest
priority stream(s), the other half for all other streams. This way,
low-priority streams cannot write instead of high-priority streams
and, on the other hand, low-priority streams get a chance to send
their packets out.
The algorithm is as follows:
- When user writes to stream outside of the callback:
- If this is the highest priority stream, place it onto the
reserved N/2 queue or fail.
(The actual size of this queue is dynamic -- MAX(N/2, CWND) --
