mptcpd 0.9
- mptcpd
- Several security hardening fixes were made including missing
hardening flags for the `mptcpize' program and compile-time
hardening (e.g. _FORTIFY_SOURCE) that was inadvertently disabled
in some cases.
- Systemd based start of mptcpd has been delayed until the
multi-user environment is fully operational.
- mptcpd will only support one kernel at run-time. The kernel may
be selected through the new "--with-kernel" `configure' script
option, e.g. "./configure --with-kernel=upstream". Supported
kernels are "upstream" and "multipath-tcp.org". The `configure'
script will attempt to automatically detect the kernel, and
fallback on the upstream kernel if it cannot do so.
- mptcpd_addr_info is now an opaque structure. Field accessor
functions were added to the <mptcpd/addr_info.h> header,
accordingly.
- Address filtering based on default route availability was
implemented in the mptcpd network monitor through a new
"check_route" mptcpd command line option notify flag,
e.g. --notify-flags=check_route.
- mptcpd initialization order issues were addressed to ensure that
the internal mptcpd state is stable and consistent prior to
invoking user provided callbacks such as "pm_ready".
- A "complete" callback parameter was added to
mptcpd_kpm_get_addr() and mptcpd_kpm_dump_addr() to allow the
user to be notified when these asynchronous calls complete.
This is particularly useful for the case where no results are
available, which consequently prevents the "results" callback
from being called.
- The mptcpd_kpm_add_addr() function no longer ignores the port
parameter.
- A new command line option "--load-plugins" was added to allow
the user to specify which mptcpd plugins to load instead loading
all plugins.
- ELL >= 0.30 is now required.
- The mptcpd unit test suite was expanded to further improve code
coverage.
- mptcpize
- mptcpize will now hijack socket() calls that specify the
IPPROTO_IP protocol.
- An issue that prevented mptcpize from updating systemd unit
files on a different filesystem was corrected.
- The libmptcpwrap library is now installed in ${libdir}/mptcpize
instead of ${libdir}/mptcpd to differentiate it from mptcpd
plugins.
