1TODO: enable bridging (compile-time option? ignore fragmentation?) 1GVPE NEWS
2TODO: explore DTLS
3 2
42.0 3TODO: compress docs?
4 - due to a bug, when packets were lost, a connection could go into a
5 state where a ping/connection request from another node would be
6 ignored.
7 - due to a bug, compression was almost always enabled.
8 - enable-max-mtu was actually enable-mtu, contrary to documentation.
9 - add nfmark support.
10 - add node-change script support.
11 - new DESTSI variable for node-xxx scripts.
12 - updated codingstyle a bit, declared truly static stuff as static.

142.22 Sun Feb 1 17:25:28 CET 2009
15 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases,
16 - enabled icmp/tcp/http-proxy protocols by default.
17 - updated copyright in program greetings.
18 - fix some configure messages.
19 - updated to libev 3.52.

212.21 Wed Sep 3 06:56:27 CEST 2008
22 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases,
23 - add missing ev++.h include header to tarball, which everybody
24 who tested it apparently had in their include path :(. Caught
25 by Karl Kleinpaste and Marcus Kong.
26
272.2 Mon Sep 1 06:28:09 CEST 2008
28 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases,
29 but upgrade is recommended to due changed ondemand behaviour.
30 - new per-node options max-ttl and max-queue.
31 - convert from iom.C to libev, a high-performance event loop
32 (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
33 - tcp connections were leaking in some cases.
34 - retry more aggressively (once/s) to establish a connection if
35 new packets arrive for it.
36 - save a lot of setsockopt calls when the tos doesn't change.
37 - honor disabled even on initial connect attempt.
38 - changed callback mechanism to be slightly less portable
39 but more efficient mechanism (standards-compliant c++ compilers
40 should work).
41 - increased receive window positive size, to allow for massive
42 packet loss due to occasional longer drop-outs.
43 - send RST when a positive window size violation is detected, but
44 not in other cases, to reconnect more quickly.
45 - upgraded liblzf to version 3.4.
46 - dropped -fno-exceptions due to ev++.h using it.
47 - node-up/down scripts are now run in sequence.
48 - new -q switch for gvpectrl, for when you run it often.
49 - work around the horribly inconsistent, ad-hoc, ever-changing
50 and broken texinfo syntax. YMMV. avoid texinfo.
51 - keepalive is more aggressive now, sensding ping's every 3 seconds
52 and killing the conenction after 15 seconds.
53 - bugfixes.

552.01 Thu Mar 29 19:26:04 CEST 2007
5 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases. 56 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
57 - bugfix of callback.h, might have cause callback return values to
58 be corrupted on architectures like sparc before.
59 - dns transport retries more aggressively.
60 - updated documentation, improved dns transport reliability
61 and throughput.
62 - added experimental support for sha256 and sha512 digests.

642.0 Mon Dec 5 13:59:26 CET 2005
65 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
66 - implement allow-direct, deny-direct node config statements.
6 - implemented != for sockinfo. This fixes a bug where 67 - implemented != for sockinfo. This fixes a bug where

8 even though it had received packets from it's new address. 69 even though it had received packets from it's new address.
9 This only causes problems if you forget to -HUP your gvpe after 70 This only causes problems if you forget to -HUP your gvpe after
10 your ip address changed, which is *required*. 71 your ip address changed, which is *required*.
72 - sets close-on-exec flag on tcp connections. This fixes a bug
73 where child processes kept tcp connections open and caused
74 connections to fail when only one side can connect.
75 - fixed a bug in receive sequence checking that made gvpe
76 accept out-of-window packets in most cases.
11 - tighter limit for the maximum sequence # to avoid overflow 77 - tighter limit for the maximum sequence # to avoid overflow
