* Adjust the netDb search and store per peer timeouts to match the average
measured per peer success times, rather than huge fixed values.
* Optimized and reverified the netDb peer selection / retrieval process
within the kbuckets.
* Drop TCP connections that don't have any useful activity in 10 minutes.
* If i2np.udp.fixedPort=true, never change the externally published port,
even if we are autodetecting the IP address.
(also includes most of the new peer/NAT testing, but thats not used atm)

* Enabled SSU as the default top priority transport, adjusting the
config.jsp page accordingly.
* Add verification fields to the SSU and TCP connection negotiation (not
compatible with previous builds)
* Enable the backwards incompatible tunnel crypto change as documented in
tunnel-alt.html (have each hop encrypt the received IV before using it,
then encrypt it again before sending it on)
* Disable the I2CP encryption, leaving in place the end to end garlic
encryption (another backwards incompatible change)
* Adjust the protocol versions on the TCP and SSU transports so that they
won't talk to older routers.
* Fix up the config stats handling again
* Fix a rare off-by-one in the SSU fragmentation
* Reduce some unnecessary netDb resending by inluding the peers queried
successfully in the store redundancy count.
* Fix in the SDK for a bug which would manifest itself as misrouted
streaming packets when a destination has many concurrent streaming
connections (thanks duck!)
* No more "Graceful shutdown in -18140121441141s"
* Further preparation for removing I2CP crypto
* Added some validation to the DH key agreement (thanks $anon)
* Validate tunnel data message expirations (though not really a problem,
since tunnels expire)
* Minor PRNG threading cleanup
* Added workaround for an odd win32 bug in the stats configuration
console page which meant only the first checkbox selection was saved.

* Added per group selection toggles in the stats configuration console
page.
* Fixed a recently injected bug in the multitransport bidding which had
allowed an essentially arbitrary choice of transports, rather than the
properly ordered choice.
(getLatency() != getLatencyMs(). duh)
* Fixed a long standing bug where we weren't properly comparing session
tags but instead largely depending upon comparing their hashCode,
causing intermittent decryption errors.
* Reduced the growth factor on the slow start and congestion avoidance for
the streaming lib.
* Adjusted some of the I2PTunnelServer threading to use a small pool of
handlers, rather than launching off new threads which then immediately
launch off an I2PTunnelRunner instance (which launches 3 more threads..)
* Don't persist session keys / session tags (not worth it, for now)
* Added some detection and handling code for duplicate session tags being
delivered (root cause still not addressed)
* Make the PRNG's buffer size configurable (via the config property
"i2p.prng.totalBufferSizeKB=4096")
* Disable SSU flooding by default (duh)
* Updates to the StreamSink apps for better throttling tests.
* Use a buffered PRNG, pulling the PRNG data off a larger precalculated
buffer, rather than the underlying PRNG's (likely small) one, which in
turn reduces the frequency of recalcing.
* More tuning to reduce temporary allocation churn
* Within the tunnel, use xor(IV, msg[0:16]) as the flag to detect dups,
rather than the IV by itself, preventing an attack that would let
colluding internal adversaries tag a message to determine that they are
in the same tunnel. Thanks dvorak for the catch!
* Drop long inactive profiles on startup and shutdown
* /configstats.jsp: web interface to pick what stats to log
* Deliver more session tags to account for wider window sizes
* Cache some intermediate values in our HMACSHA256 and BC's HMAC
* Track the client send rate (stream.sendBps and client.sendBpsRaw)
* UrlLauncher: adjust the browser selection order
* I2PAppContext: hooks for dummy HMACSHA256 and a weak PRNG
* StreamSinkClient: add support for sending an unlimited amount of data
* Migrate the tests out of the default build jars
2005-06-22 Comwiz
* Migrate the core tests to junit
* Phase 1 of the unit test bounty completed. (The router build script was modified not to build the router
tests because of a broken dependancy on the core tests. This should be fixed in
phase 3 of the unit test bounty.)
* increased the maximum number of fragments allowed in a message from 31 to 127,
reducing the maximum fragment size to 8KB and moving around some bits in the fragment
info. This is not backwards compatible.
* removed the old (hokey) congestion control description, replacing it with the TCP-esque
algorithm implemented
note: the code for the ACK bitfields and fragment info changes have not yet been
implemented, so the old version of this document describes whats going on in the live net.
the new bitfields / fragment info should be deployed in the next day or so (hopefully :)
* Cleaned up the peers page a bit more.
more udp stuff:
* add new config option: i2np.udp.alwaysPreferred=true to adjust the bidding
so that UDP is picked first, even if a TCP connection exists
* fixed the initial clock skew problem (duh)
* reduced the MTU to 576 (largest nearly-universally-safe, and allows a
tunnel message in 2 fragments)
* handle some races @ connection establishment (thanks duck!)
* if there are more ACKs than we can send in a packet, reschedule another
ACK immediately
* Added a small new page to the web console (/peers.jsp) which contains
the peer connection information. This will be cleaned up a lot more
before 0.6 is out, but its a start.
* Reduced some SimpleTimer churn
* add hooks for per-peer choking in the outbound message queue - if/when a
peer reaches their cwin, no further messages will enter the 'active' pool
until there are more bytes available. other messages waiting (either later
on in the same priority queue, or in the queues for other priorities) may
take that slot.
* when we have a message acked, release the acked size to the congestion
window (duh), rather than waiting for the second to expire and refill the
capacity.
* send packets in a volley explicitly, waiting until we can allocate the full
cwin size for that message
* more stats. including per-peer KBps (updated every second)
* improved blocking/timeout situations on the send queue
* added drop simulation hook
* provide logical RTO limits
* Reduce the peer profile stat coallesce overhead by inlining it with the
reorganize.
* Limit each transport to at most one address (any transport that requires
multiple entry points can include those alternatives in the address).
udp stuff:
* change the UDP transport's style from "udp" to "SSUv1"
* keep track of each peer's skew
* properly handle session reestablishment over an existing session, rather
than requiring both sides to expire first
* More fixes for the I2PTunnel "other" interface handling (thanks nelgin!)
* Add back the code to handle bids from multiple transports (though there
is still only one transport enabled by default)
* Adjust the router's queueing of outbound client messages when under
heavy load by running the preparatory job in the client's I2CP handler
thread, thereby blocking additional outbound messages when the router is
hosed.
* No need to validate or persist a netDb entry if we already have it
And for some udp stuff:
* only bid on what we know (duh)
* reduceed the queue size in the UDPSender itself, so that ACKs go
through more quickly, leaving the payload messages to queue up in
the outbound fragment scheduler
* rather than /= 2 on congestion, /= 2/3 (still AIMD, but less drastic)
* adjust the fragment selector so a wsiz throttle won't force extra
volleys
* mark congestion when it occurs, not after the message has been
ACKed
* when doing a round robin over the active messages, move on to the
next after a full volley, not after each packet (causing less "fair"
performance but better latency)
* reduced the lock contention in the inboundMessageFragments by
moving the ack and complete queues to the ACKSender and
MessageReceiver respectively (each of which have their own
threads)
* prefer new and existing UDP sessions to new TCP sessions, but
prefer existing TCP sessions to new UDP sessions
