<p>
|
||||
The 0.8.12 release fixes several message corruption bugs, some present since 2005.
|
||||
It also contains a redesign of the router's congestion control, and continued optimization
|
||||
of CPU and memory usage. We are hopeful that these changes will improve network performance.
|
||||
Upgrading is recommended.

|
||||
|
||||
<p><strong>Release Details</strong></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This release contains several big changes that should help network reliability and performance.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The first two changes are fixes for major UDP packet transmission bugs, described below. The third change
|
||||
is fixes to the decompressor. Fixing these should eliminate a big source of message delivery failures.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Also, the release contains a rewrite of the router's participating traffic congestion control. It should
|
||||
now more accurately measure current participating bandwidth, handle bursts better, drop messages less, and
|
||||
drop the right messages if dropping is required.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Also, the release reduces the amount of processing that routers do for messages they pass down the tunnel.
|
||||
These messages do not need to be completely parsed and validated since the gateway is simply passing them through.
|
||||
This will help performance of all routers but the improvement will probably not be noticeable except on high-traffic routers.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>We're optimistic that these changes will help, and of course eliminating sources of message corruption is sure to help.
|
||||
However the extend of the improvement won't be apparent until the majority of the network upgrades.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The release also contains some updates to the router console light theme. You may need to do a shift-reload
|
||||
or control-reload in your browser to force a reload of the CSS.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><strong>Major changes</strong></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>- Instead of fully parsing and validating messages received at the inbound gateway, simply pass them down the tunnel
|
||||
<br />- Don't verify I2NP checksums in most cases, as message corruption is caught at other layers
|
||||
<br />- Don't recalculate I2NP checksums on messages passed through unchanged
|
||||
<br />- Several NTCP pumper optimizations, to hopefully fix NTCP pumper high CPU usage on fast routers
|
||||
|
||||
<br />- Rewrite participating tunnel congestion control, to drop less, more accurately measure traffic, and handle bursts better</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><strong>Wrapper Update</strong></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>New installs include wrapper version 3.5.13 which fixes a heap corruption with very long log lines.
|
||||
See <a href="http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.com/doc/english/release-notes.html">http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.com/doc/english/release-notes.html</a>
|
||||
for additional information. I2P PPA package users should have received this update in the last week of December.
|
||||
If you do not use our PPA package and would like to update your wrapper manually, follow the instructions at
|
||||
<a href="http://www.i2p2.de/manualwrapper">http://www.i2p2.de/manualwrapper</a> .</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><strong>Bug Fixes</strong></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>- Fix major SSU MTU bug introduced in 0.8.9.The router sometimes sent UDP packets that exceeded the maximum
|
||||
size that routers would accept on the receive side. This resulted in a lot of dropped packets, tunnel build problems,
|
||||
and connection problems. One thing that contributed to us missing the problem was that 0.8.9 was released in the
|
||||
middle of the huge network expansion in early October, when network performance was already deteriorating rapidly.
|
||||
<br />- Fix major SSU fragmentation bug present since 2005. UDP corrupted transmit messages when the message size
|
||||
was an exact multiple of the fragmentation size.
|
||||
<br />- Fix major decompression bugs present since 2005 that caused message corruption and data loss at multiple protocol layers.
|
||||
<br />- Snark doesn't always delete directories
|
||||
<br />- Fix all character case conversion (Turkish four i problem)
|
||||
<br />- Whitelist more IRC commands
|
||||
<br />- Remove expired reseed cert</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><strong>Other</strong></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>- Speed up the inefficient GeoIP lookup
|
||||
<br />- Optimize several heavily-used utility functions
|
||||
<br />- Don't drop the transport connection when receiving an invalid message, it isn't necessary and could be an attack vector
|
||||
<br />- Console light theme update
|
||||
|
||||
<br />- Move the complex network configuration stuff to a new console page
|
||||
<br />- Add a link to hide the news in the console
|
||||
<br />- Allow numerous additional IRC commands through the IRC filter
|
||||
<br />- Several other cleanups, optimizations, and object caches added
|
||||
<br />- New Estonian translation (thanks ajutine)
|
||||
<br />- Spanish, Swedish, Ukrainian translation updates
|
||||

<p>
|
||||
The 0.8.13 release contains several bug fixes and a couple of new features.
|
||||
We are pleased that the last release significantly improved performance,
|
||||
and the network is running well despite continued rapid growth.
|
||||
Upgrading is recommended.

<p><strong>Release Details</strong></p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
This is likely to be the last release before 0.9, in which we will migrate to Jetty 6,
|
||||
and introduce a simplified router console home page. Monitor the news section of
|
||||
your the router console in the coming weeks for more information on the next release.
|
||||
</p><p>
|
||||
Starting with this release, the router will
|
||||
check for and install plugin updates shortly upon restarting after a router update.
|
||||
To prevent this, add the advanced configuration
|
||||
<tt>plugins.autoUpdate=false</tt> before restarting.
|
||||
There is also a new update-all button on the client configuration page.
|
||||
</p><p>
|
||||
Routers in certain countries will now automatically enable hidden mode for increased protection.
|
||||
However, hidden mode may have lower performance or reliability, and is still a work in progress.
|
||||
To disable hidden mode before restarting, add the advanced configuration
|
||||
<tt>router.isHidden=false</tt>.
|
||||
To disable hidden mode later, select <i>use all auto-detect methods</i> under <i>IP Configuration</i> on the
|
||||
network configuration page.
|
||||
For the list of countries see the thread on zzz.i2p.
|
||||
The only country on the list that has more than one or two I2P users is China.

<p>
|
||||
The 0.9 release concludes over a year and a half of work on the 0.8.x series,
|
||||
in which we greatly improved the performance and security of the router, and the
|
||||
scalability of the network.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In the 0.9 release we migrate to Jetty 6 for the console and eepsite web server,
|
||||
and introduce a simplified router console home page.
|
||||
This release is network-compatible with prior releases, however see below for important
|
||||
information on compatibility with existing eepsites, plugins, and webapps.
|
||||
Upgrading is recommended.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Files are available on the <a href="/download.html">download page.</a></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><strong>Update info</strong></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p> In-network updates and new installs will include Jetty 6, Tomcat, and JSTL.
|
||||
PPA (Ubuntu/Debian) updates will have new dependencies for these packages.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p> If you have not enabled or modified your eepsite settings, the update should automatically migrate you to Jetty 6.
|
||||
If you do not use Jetty for your eepsite, the update will not affect it.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p> If you have more than one Jetty eepsite or you have changed the local port (7658 by default) or otherwise edited jetty.xml,
|
||||
you must manually edit the new jetty configuration files after updating, and then restart. </p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>For those with Jetty-based eepsites, we recommend that you verify that the upgrade
|
||||
was successful and the eepsites are operational after the router restarts.
|
||||
|
||||
<p> Plugin information:
|
||||
<br /> Plugins not listed below should continue to work under Jetty 6.
|
||||
<br /> The following plugins require updates for Jetty 6. The router will download and install them a few minutes
|
||||
after upgrading: i2pcontrol, pebble, zzzot
|
||||
<br /> The following plugins have been renamed and for Jetty 6. Users must manually remove them and download the new versions
|
||||
after upgrading: neodatis, seedless
|
||||
<br /> The following plugin does not work well with Jetty 6, you may wish to remove it and install the unofficial replacement
|
||||
from plugins.i2p after upgrading: i2pbote
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p> Other non-standard console and eepsite webapps not packaged by the I2P development team may or may not
|
||||
require modifications.
