17TODO: AnyEvent::Loop should not use POSIIX when ti isn't used.

17 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me. 19TODO: AnyEvent::Log contexts should have a way to inject log messages received form elsewhere, using timestamp etc.
20TODO: add some cheta-sheet to log synopsis regarding AE_LOG=AnyEvent::MP=+
21TODO: tcp_connect option for AnyEvent::Handle?
22TODO: hosts files on windows probably contain \r, which is not stripped
23 - AnyEvent::Loop no longer loads the POSIX module if Time::HiRes
24 has monotonic clock support (suggested by Felipe Gasper).
25 - since Net::SSLeay (up to 1.88-1) is _still not ported to openssl 1.1
26 and many distributions therefore will have a completely broken
27 Net::SSLeay module for the forseeable future, AnyEvent::TLS
28 will now log a warning (that is not seen by default unless you
29 increase log verbosity).
30 - add tlsv1_3 disable switch to AnyEvent::TLS.
31 - add experimental "tls" method support for AnyEvent::TLS.
32 - tls methods were lowercase, but documented to be uppercase.
33 fix documentation.
34
357.17 Wed Sep 18 03:04:49 CEST 2019
36 - work around antique openssl version in RHEL 7 by formatting
37 dh parameters differently (reported by several people).
38 - add t/13_weaken.t.
39
407.16 Fri Jul 19 18:00:21 CEST 2019
41 - add ffdhe group dh parameters from RFC 7919, and use ffdhe3072
42 as new default, instead of schmorp1539.
43 - AnyEvent::Log did not reassess logging status of
44 AnyEvent::Log::logger's when contexts were changed with
45 ->attach/detach/slaves, causing them to not log even though a
46 recent attach should have caused them to log.
47 - added some more logging configuration examples.
48 - mention RFC 8482 in AnyEvent::DNS.
49
507.15 Tue Feb 26 03:07:42 CET 2019
51 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Handle's tls_detect documentation gave
52 separate major and minor versions, while code passed only a single
53 value. This version follows the documentation and now passes separate
54 major and minor values.
55 - work around Net::SSLeay not having been ported to openssl 1.1, but many
56 distributions compiling it against openssl 1.1, which unfortunately
57 succeeds and results in a very broken module.
58 - AnyEvent::DNS::dns_unpack now stores the original DNS packet
59 in the __ member, to allow decoding of undecodable resouce records
60 containing compressed domian names.
61 - AnyEvent::Socket::parse_ipv6 would NOT, as advertised, accept ipv4
62 addresses. It now does and converts them to ipv4 mapped addresses.
63 - support CAA records, based on patch by Steve Atkins.
64 - add freenom and cloudflare nameservers as dns fallback.
65 - AnyEvent::Strict would not properly ward against io watchers
66 on files when the handle passed was a file descriptor.
67 - document "internal" variables used by the dns en-/decoder to allow
68 enterprising users to extend them in a semi-official way.
69
707.14 Sat Jun 24 01:44:19 CEST 2017
71 - fix a crash bug in AnyEvent::Handle with openssl 1.1.0 (patched
72 by Paul Howarth and apparently tracked down by Mike McCauley).
73 - AnyEvent::Handle->keepalive was documented (and defined) twice
74 (found by Matt Merhar).
75 - AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_bind/tcp_server would immediately unlink a unix
76 listening socket unless a guard is used. Change this so that no
77 cleanup will be performed unless a guard is used and document this more
78 clearly.
79 - make tcp_bind/tcp_server error messages more regular.
80 - work around latest perl upstream breakage - this time, perl5porters were
81 apparently bullied by a bogus CVE (CVE-2016-1238), and since distros
82 stupidly apply anything that has "security fix" stamped on it, it's likely
83 going to be a problem in practise (and working around it is trivial on
84 windows and unix).
85 - add TCP_FASTOPEN/MSG_FASTOPEN and MSG_NOSIGNAL/MSG_MORE/MSG_DONTWAIT
86 to constants.
87 - update warnings to common::sense 3.74 standards.
88
897.13 Sat Sep 17 04:31:49 CEST 2016
90 - Only call tlsext_host_name for non-empty common names (reported
91 by Maxime Soulé).
92 - log a (single) notice message if SNI is not supported.
93 - upgrade to UTS-46:9.0.0 draft and switch to non-transitional
94 behaviour, beating thunderbird, ie, edge, chrome and safari to it :)
95 (see also https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1218179)
96 - turns out the UTS-46 IDNA testcase failures were indeed bugs in the
97 testcases and the specification and not in the code - the post-9.0.0
98 unicode files have all known problems fixed, so finally the AnyEvent
99 IDNA implementation can pass the full IDNA testsuite - without needing
100 a single fix :)
101 - guarantee (and document) that condvar callbacks will be removed
102 on invocation - important to avoid circular references.
103
1047.12 Wed Jan 27 19:12:26 CET 2016
105 - use common name as hostname for tls connects, if Net::SSLeay
106 supports SNI.
107 - fix documentation of tls_autostart read type in AnyEvent::Handle,
108 analyzed by Felix Ostmann.
109
1107.11 Thu Jul 16 14:36:00 CEST 2015
111 - AnyEvent::Socket::parse_ipv6 could accept malformed ipv6
112 addresses (extra "::" at end and similar cases).
113 - add a more explicit warning to AnyEvent::Handle that it doesn't
114 work on files, people keep getting confused.
115 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_bind.
116 - new functions AnyEvent::fh_block and AnyEvent::fh_unblock.
117 - aligned ipv6 address formatting with RFC 5952 (by not shortening
118 a single :0: to ::).
119 - added stability canary support.
120
1217.09 Sat May 2 16:38:53 CEST 2015
122 - AnyEvent::Debug called an internal function (AnyEvent::Log::ft)
123 that was renamed to AnyEvent::Log:format_time. uinder its old name
124 (analyzed by Michael Stovenour).
125 - update AnyEvent::DNS fallback resolver addresses:
126 seems google effectively killed most other free dns resolvers,
127 so remove them, but add cable and wireless (ecrc) since it was
128 stable for 20 years or so, official or not, and there should be
129 an alternative to google.
130 - perl5porters broke windows error codes in 5.20, and mapped
131 WSAEWOULDBLOCK on the (different) EWOULDBLOCK error code, and
132 WSAEINPROGRESS into the incompatible ERINPROGRESS code, probably
133 because they were so cool. They probably broke other error codes
134 for no reason, too, but I didn't care for checking, it's too
135 depressing. This version only works around the WSAEWOULDBLOCK
136 issue, because I don't have a nice way to work around the
137 WSAEINPROGRESS bug.
138
1397.08 Wed Dec 10 05:27:17 CET 2014
140 - work around a newly introduced bug in Socket 2.011 (an
141 errornous sun_length check) (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
142 - AnyEvent::TLS didn't load (but refer to) AnyEvent::Socket
143 (analyzed by Ben Magistro).
144 - AnyEvent::Strict will now confess, not croak. This is in line with
145 it being a development/debugging tool.
146 - work around a number of libglib bugs (debug builds of libglib enforce
147 certain undocumented behaviour patterns such as not being able to
148 remove a child watch source after it has fired, which we will try
149 to emulate to avoid "criticals". what where they thinking...).
150 - mention json security issues in AnyEvent::Handle, now that Douglas
151 Crockford has foolishly and incompatibly changed JSON.
152 - changed default dns resolver "max_outstanding" value from 1 to 10,
153 the latter beinfg the intended value all along
154 (reported by Ilya Chesnokov).
155 - added new "AnyEvent::Impl::UV" interface module to the UV event lib
156 (written by Mike Lowell).
157
1587.07 Tue Dec 17 17:45:02 CET 2013
159 - the documentation for custom tls verify schemes was wrong. make it agree
160 with the code (reported by Maxime Soulé).
161 - added cbor read and write types to AnyEvent::Handle (using CBOR::XS).
162 - work around an API change in openssl that could cause wrong tls connection
163 aborts, likely on windows only (analyzed by sten).
164 - calling AnyEvent->now_update with AnyEvent::Impl::Perl caused an
165 endless loop (reported by Dietrich Rebmann).
166 - add tlsv1_1 and tlsv1_2 protocols to AnyEvent::TLS
167 (patch by Maxime Soulé).
168 - document AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync::set_loop and
169 $AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync::LOOP. Though only documented now, this
170 functionality has _always_ been available.
171 - force a toplevel domain name in t/81_hosts.t (analyzed by
172 David Jack Wange Olrik).
173 - document that AnyEvent::Log uses AnyEvent::IO.
174 - warn about AnyEvent::Filesys::Notify performance.
175 - praise the joys of AnyEvent::Fork::*.
176 - time for an =encoding directive.
177 - do no longer use JSON to create a default json coder, use
178 JSON::XS or JSON::PP directly.
179
1807.05 Wed Aug 21 10:38:08 CEST 2013
181 - uts46data.pl couldn't be found due to wrong naming of the file
182 (reported by Fulko Hew).
183 - handle lone \015's properly in AE::Handle's default line read
184 (reported by various people).
185 - untaint ip addresses found in /etc/hosts (patch by José Micó).
186 - the memleak fix in 7.03 caused resolving via /etc/hosts to always
187 fail on first use (reported and testcase by Andrew Whatson).
188 - expose AnyEvent::Log::format_time, and allow users to redefine it.
189 - expose AnyEvent::Log::default_format, and allow redefinition.
190 - expose AnyEvent::Log::fatal_exit, to allow redefinition.
191 - AnyEvent::Debug shell can now run coro shell commands, if available.
192 - t/63* tests were wrongly in MANIFEST.
193 - kernel.org's finger server went MIA, switch to freebsd.org and
194 icculus.org.
195 - clarify that IO::AIO and AnyEvent::AIO are needed for AnyEvent::IO
196 to function asynchronously (reported by Daniel Carosone).
197 - hard-disable $^W in most tests, it generates too much garbage output.
198 - use a (hopefully) more future-proof method to emulate common::sense.
199 - upgrade to UTS-46:6.2.0.
200 - switch to INSTLIB from INSTLIBDIR, as INSTLIBDIR was wrongly
201 documented. should not affect anything.
202
2037.04 Thu Nov 15 02:23:58 CET 2012
204 - debugging code left in.
205
2067.03 Thu Nov 15 02:16:11 CET 2012
207 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton did not work when dns resolution was
208 used to find the addresses (analyzed and patch by Maxime Soulé).
209 - fix a memory leak in the /etc/hosts lookup code when hosts don't
210 resolve and are not in hosts (analyzed by sten).
211
2127.02 Tue Aug 14 04:27:58 CEST 2012
213 - AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd could block indefinitely (analyzed and test
214 program by Yorhel).
215 - verified that AnyEvent::Socket follows RFC5952.
216 - try to parse "ADDR#PORT" in addition to "ADDR PORT".
217
2187.01 Sun May 13 01:03:17 CEST 2012
219 - fail with EPROTO in AnyEvent::Handle wqhen TLS is requested but
220 not available, instead of throwing an exception.
221 - use File::Spec to get the tmpdir in t/*, to avoid needless
222 failures on (most, not mine :) windows boxes.
223 - new handle read types: tls_detect and tls_autostart.
224
2257.0 Fri Apr 13 06:33:30 CEST 2012
226 - child watchers are broken in POE 1.352 (also many earlier
227 versions) and there seems to be no way to work around it, as POE
228 itself is inherently racy. Document this regression and add a delay
229 in t/68_poe_03_child.t for the time being.
18 - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl 230 - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl
19 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the 231 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the
20 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO). 232 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO).
233 - load /etc/hosts only when DNS has no answer.
234 - stat /etc/hosts on every access and reload it if it changed.
235 - load /etc/hosts via AnyEvent::IO - potentially asynchronous.
236 - fix a buggy croak in the dh parameter reading in AnyEvent::TLS.
237 - AnyEvent::Log log_to_file and log_to_path now use AnyEvent::IO. As
238 a side effect, they now use true appending as opposed to libc
239 appending, and the file might not have been opened when the function
240 returns.
21 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of 241 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of

30 sentences and do no longer include the package name. 250 sentences and do no longer include the package name.
251 - the storable read type would sometimes throw an exception instead
252 of causing EBADMSG (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
253 - work around a bug in openssl 1.0.1 which enforces a minimum rsa
254 keysize (reported by Paul Howarth).
255 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me.
