17 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me. 157.15 Tue Feb 26 03:07:42 CET 2019
16 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Handle's tls_detect documentation gave
17 separate major and minor versions, while code passed only a single
18 value. This version follows the documentation and now passes separate
19 major and minor values.
20 - work around Net::SSLeay not having been ported to openssl 1.1, but many
21 distributions compiling it against openssl 1.1, which unfortunately
22 succeeds and results in a very broken module.
23 - AnyEvent::DNS::dns_unpack now stores the original DNS packet
24 in the __ member, to allow decoding of undecodable resouce records
25 containing compressed domian names.
26 - AnyEvent::Socket::parse_ipv6 would NOT, as advertised, accept ipv4
27 addresses. It now does and converts them to ipv4 mapped addresses.
28 - support CAA records, based on patch by Steve Atkins.
29 - add freenom and cloudflare nameservers as dns fallback.
30 - AnyEvent::Strict would not properly ward against io watchers
31 on files when the handle passed was a file descriptor.
32 - document "internal" variables used by the dns en-/decoder to allow
33 enterprising users to extend them in a semi-official way.
34
357.14 Sat Jun 24 01:44:19 CEST 2017
36 - fix a crash bug in AnyEvent::Handle with openssl 1.1.0 (patched
37 by Paul Howarth and apparently tracked down by Mike McCauley).
38 - AnyEvent::Handle->keepalive was documented (and defined) twice
39 (found by Matt Merhar).
40 - AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_bind/tcp_server would immediately unlink a unix
41 listening socket unless a guard is used. Change this so that no
42 cleanup will be performed unless a guard is used and document this more
43 clearly.
44 - make tcp_bind/tcp_server error messages more regular.
45 - work around latest perl upstream breakage - this time, perl5porters were
46 apparently bullied by a bogus CVE (CVE-2016-1238), and since distros
47 stupidly apply anything that has "security fix" stamped on it, it's likely
48 going to be a problem in practise (and working around it is trivial on
49 windows and unix).
50 - add TCP_FASTOPEN/MSG_FASTOPEN and MSG_NOSIGNAL/MSG_MORE/MSG_DONTWAIT
51 to constants.
52 - update warnings to common::sense 3.74 standards.
53
547.13 Sat Sep 17 04:31:49 CEST 2016
55 - Only call tlsext_host_name for non-empty common names (reported
56 by Maxime Soulé).
57 - log a (single) notice message if SNI is not supported.
58 - upgrade to UTS-46:9.0.0 draft and switch to non-transitional
59 behaviour, beating thunderbird, ie, edge, chrome and safari to it :)
60 (see also https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1218179)
61 - turns out the UTS-46 IDNA testcase failures were indeed bugs in the
62 testcases and the specification and not in the code - the post-9.0.0
63 unicode files have all known problems fixed, so finally the AnyEvent
64 IDNA implementation can pass the full IDNA testsuite - without needing
65 a single fix :)
66 - guarantee (and document) that condvar callbacks will be removed
67 on invocation - important to avoid circular references.
68
697.12 Wed Jan 27 19:12:26 CET 2016
70 - use common name as hostname for tls connects, if Net::SSLeay
71 supports SNI.
72 - fix documentation of tls_autostart read type in AnyEvent::Handle,
73 analyzed by Felix Ostmann.
74
757.11 Thu Jul 16 14:36:00 CEST 2015
76 - AnyEvent::Socket::parse_ipv6 could accept malformed ipv6
77 addresses (extra "::" at end and similar cases).
78 - add a more explicit warning to AnyEvent::Handle that it doesn't
79 work on files, people keep getting confused.
80 - new function AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_bind.
81 - new functions AnyEvent::fh_block and AnyEvent::fh_unblock.
82 - aligned ipv6 address formatting with RFC 5952 (by not shortening
83 a single :0: to ::).
84 - added stability canary support.
85
867.09 Sat May 2 16:38:53 CEST 2015
87 - AnyEvent::Debug called an internal function (AnyEvent::Log::ft)
88 that was renamed to AnyEvent::Log:format_time. uinder its old name
89 (analyzed by Michael Stovenour).
90 - update AnyEvent::DNS fallback resolver addresses:
91 seems google effectively killed most other free dns resolvers,
92 so remove them, but add cable and wireless (ecrc) since it was
93 stable for 20 years or so, official or not, and there should be
94 an alternative to google.
95 - perl5porters broke windows error codes in 5.20, and mapped
96 WSAEWOULDBLOCK on the (different) EWOULDBLOCK error code, and
97 WSAEINPROGRESS into the incompatible ERINPROGRESS code, probably
98 because they were so cool. They probably broke other error codes
99 for no reason, too, but I didn't care for checking, it's too
100 depressing. This version only works around the WSAEWOULDBLOCK
101 issue, because I don't have a nice way to work around the
102 WSAEINPROGRESS bug.
103
1047.08 Wed Dec 10 05:27:17 CET 2014
105 - work around a newly introduced bug in Socket 2.011 (an
106 errornous sun_length check) (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
107 - AnyEvent::TLS didn't load (but refer to) AnyEvent::Socket
108 (analyzed by Ben Magistro).
109 - AnyEvent::Strict will now confess, not croak. This is in line with
110 it being a development/debugging tool.
111 - work around a number of libglib bugs (debug builds of libglib enforce
112 certain undocumented behaviour patterns such as not being able to
113 remove a child watch source after it has fired, which we will try
114 to emulate to avoid "criticals". what where they thinking...).
115 - mention json security issues in AnyEvent::Handle, now that Douglas
116 Crockford has foolishly and incompatibly changed JSON.
117 - changed default dns resolver "max_outstanding" value from 1 to 10,
118 the latter beinfg the intended value all along
119 (reported by Ilya Chesnokov).
120 - added new "AnyEvent::Impl::UV" interface module to the UV event lib
121 (written by Mike Lowell).
122
1237.07 Tue Dec 17 17:45:02 CET 2013
124 - the documentation for custom tls verify schemes was wrong. make it agree
125 with the code (reported by Maxime Soulé).
126 - added cbor read and write types to AnyEvent::Handle (using CBOR::XS).
127 - work around an API change in openssl that could cause wrong tls connection
128 aborts, likely on windows only (analyzed by sten).
129 - calling AnyEvent->now_update with AnyEvent::Impl::Perl caused an
130 endless loop (reported by Dietrich Rebmann).
131 - add tlsv1_1 and tlsv1_2 protocols to AnyEvent::TLS
132 (patch by Maxime Soulé).
133 - document AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync::set_loop and
134 $AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync::LOOP. Though only documented now, this
135 functionality has _always_ been available.
136 - force a toplevel domain name in t/81_hosts.t (analyzed by
137 David Jack Wange Olrik).
138 - document that AnyEvent::Log uses AnyEvent::IO.
139 - warn about AnyEvent::Filesys::Notify performance.
140 - praise the joys of AnyEvent::Fork::*.
141 - time for an =encoding directive.
142 - do no longer use JSON to create a default json coder, use
143 JSON::XS or JSON::PP directly.
144
1457.05 Wed Aug 21 10:38:08 CEST 2013
146 - uts46data.pl couldn't be found due to wrong naming of the file
147 (reported by Fulko Hew).
148 - handle lone \015's properly in AE::Handle's default line read
149 (reported by various people).
150 - untaint ip addresses found in /etc/hosts (patch by José Micó).
151 - the memleak fix in 7.03 caused resolving via /etc/hosts to always
152 fail on first use (reported and testcase by Andrew Whatson).
153 - expose AnyEvent::Log::format_time, and allow users to redefine it.
154 - expose AnyEvent::Log::default_format, and allow redefinition.
155 - expose AnyEvent::Log::fatal_exit, to allow redefinition.
156 - AnyEvent::Debug shell can now run coro shell commands, if available.
157 - t/63* tests were wrongly in MANIFEST.
158 - kernel.org's finger server went MIA, switch to freebsd.org and
159 icculus.org.
160 - clarify that IO::AIO and AnyEvent::AIO are needed for AnyEvent::IO
161 to function asynchronously (reported by Daniel Carosone).
162 - hard-disable $^W in most tests, it generates too much garbage output.
163 - use a (hopefully) more future-proof method to emulate common::sense.
164 - upgrade to UTS-46:6.2.0.
165 - switch to INSTLIB from INSTLIBDIR, as INSTLIBDIR was wrongly
166 documented. should not affect anything.
167
1687.04 Thu Nov 15 02:23:58 CET 2012
169 - debugging code left in.
170
1717.03 Thu Nov 15 02:16:11 CET 2012
172 - AnyEvent::Socket::inet_aton did not work when dns resolution was
173 used to find the addresses (analyzed and patch by Maxime Soulé).
174 - fix a memory leak in the /etc/hosts lookup code when hosts don't
175 resolve and are not in hosts (analyzed by sten).
176
1777.02 Tue Aug 14 04:27:58 CEST 2012
178 - AnyEvent::Util::run_cmd could block indefinitely (analyzed and test
179 program by Yorhel).
180 - verified that AnyEvent::Socket follows RFC5952.
181 - try to parse "ADDR#PORT" in addition to "ADDR PORT".
182
1837.01 Sun May 13 01:03:17 CEST 2012
184 - fail with EPROTO in AnyEvent::Handle wqhen TLS is requested but
185 not available, instead of throwing an exception.
186 - use File::Spec to get the tmpdir in t/*, to avoid needless
187 failures on (most, not mine :) windows boxes.
188 - new handle read types: tls_detect and tls_autostart.
189
1907.0 Fri Apr 13 06:33:30 CEST 2012
191 - child watchers are broken in POE 1.352 (also many earlier
192 versions) and there seems to be no way to work around it, as POE
193 itself is inherently racy. Document this regression and add a delay
194 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 195 - new module AnyEvent::IO, that is a frontend to either a pure-perl
19 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the 196 synchronous I/O implementation (AnyEvent::IO::Perl), or to the
20 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO). 197 asynchronous I/O extension IO::AIO (AnyEvent::IO::IOAIO).
198 - load /etc/hosts only when DNS has no answer.
199 - stat /etc/hosts on every access and reload it if it changed.
200 - load /etc/hosts via AnyEvent::IO - potentially asynchronous.
201 - fix a buggy croak in the dh parameter reading in AnyEvent::TLS.
202 - AnyEvent::Log log_to_file and log_to_path now use AnyEvent::IO. As
203 a side effect, they now use true appending as opposed to libc
204 appending, and the file might not have been opened when the function
205 returns.
21 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of 206 - the default logging level was not properly documented in a variety of

28 around extra warning torture/breakage under perl 5.15.x. 213 around extra warning torture/breakage under perl 5.15.x.
29 - log messages by anyevent are now ucfirst, are usually full 214 - log messages by anyevent are now ucfirst, are usually full
30 sentences and do no longer include the package name. 215 sentences and do no longer include the package name.
216 - the storable read type would sometimes throw an exception instead
217 of causing EBADMSG (analyzed by Maxime Soulé).
218 - work around a bug in openssl 1.0.1 which enforces a minimum rsa
219 keysize (reported by Paul Howarth).
220 - documented Rocco fabricating statements about AnyEvent and me.
