Overview

Memcached's usage of the OpenSSL API has been overhauled to better handle errors. The logstream watch connevents can be used to see detailed OpenSSL-related errors.

The builtin proxy has removed its old style lua API. There should be no active users of it, but if you use res = pool(r) or mcp.await syntax, please see the wiki documentation for updated API calls. This paves the way for many performance improvements.

Fixes

  • proxy: fix proxy_req_active accounting
  • core: fix usleep not working on NetBSD
  • proxy: [EXPERIMENTAL] mutator framework
  • proxy: str = rctx:tls_peer_cn()
  • proxy: req/res inspector objects
  • proxy: req:token_int()
  • proxy: req:flag_token_int("f")
  • tls: per-listener cert validation
  • tls: actually look at TLS errors
  • tls: update min OpenSSL to 1.1.1
  • tls: quarantine openssl headers
  • proxy: fix potential mcp.match false negative
  • proxy: fix O token for some mcp.internal calls
  • proxy: fix router regression with cmaps

New Features

The proxy has new objects for inspecting request/response objects as well as creating new request/responses either without memory allocations or while minimizing memory allocations. See the wiki or test files for usage (docs are not updated yet as of this writing).

Contributors

Note that this is based on who contributed changes, not how they were done. In many cases, a code snippet on the mailing list or a bug report ended up as a commit with your name on it.

Note that this is just a summary of how many changes each person made which doesn't necessarily reflect how significant each change was. For details on what led up into a branch, either grab the git repo and look at the output of git log 1.6.29..1.6.30 or use a web view.
