* 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.
* 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.)
* Loop while starting up the I2PTunnel instances, in case the I2CP
listener isn't up yet (thanks detonate!)
* Implement custom reusable GZIP streams to both reduce memory churn
and prevent the exposure of data in the standard GZIP header (creation
time, OS, etc). This is RFC1952 compliant, and backwards compatible,
though has only been tested within the confines of I2P's compression use
(DataHelper.[de]compress).
* Preemptively support the next protocol version, so that after the 0.5.0.2
release, we'll be able to drop protocol=2 to get rid of 0.5 users.
* Really disable the streaming lib packet caching
* Synchronized a message handling point in the SDK (even though its use is
already essentially single threaded, its better to play it safe)
* Don't add new RepublishLeaseSetJobs on failure, just requeue up the
existing one (duh)
* Throttle the number of concurrent pending tunnel builds across all
pools, in addition to simply throttling the number of new requests per
minute for each pool individually. This should avoid the cascading
failure when tunnel builds take too long, as no new builds will be
created until the previous ones are handled.
* Factored out and extended the DataHelper's unit tests for dealing with
long and date formatting.
* Explicitly specify the HTTP auth realm as "i2prouter", though this
alone doesn't address the bug where jetty asks for authentication too
much. (thanks orion!)
* Updated the StreamSinkServer to ignore all read bytes, rather than write
them to the filesystem.
* (Merged the 0.5-pre branch back into CVS HEAD)
* Replaced the old tunnel routing crypto with the one specified in
router/doc/tunnel-alt.html, including updates to the web console to view
and tweak it.
* Provide the means for routers to reject tunnel requests with a wider
range of responses:
probabalistic rejection, due to approaching overload
transient rejection, due to temporary overload
bandwidth rejection, due to persistent bandwidth overload
critical rejection, due to general router fault (or imminent shutdown)
The different responses are factored into the profiles accordingly.
* Replaced the old I2CP tunnel related options (tunnels.depthInbound, etc)
with a series of new properties, relevent to the new tunnel routing code:
inbound.nickname (used on the console)
inbound.quantity (# of tunnels to use in any leaseSets)
inbound.backupQuantity (# of tunnels to keep in the ready)
inbound.length (# of remote peers in the tunnel)
inbound.lengthVariance (if > 0, permute the length by adding a random #
up to the variance. if < 0, permute the length
by adding or subtracting a random # up to the
variance)
outbound.* (same as the inbound, except for the, uh, outbound tunnels
in that client's pool)
There are other options, and more will be added later, but the above are
the most relevent ones.
* Replaced Jetty 4.2.21 with Jetty 5.1.2
* Compress all profile data on disk.
* Adjust the reseeding functionality to work even when the JVM's http proxy
is set.
* Enable a poor-man's interactive-flow in the streaming lib by choking the
max window size.
* Reduced the default streaming lib max message size to 16KB (though still
configurable by the user), also doubling the default maximum window
size.
* Replaced the RouterIdentity in a Lease with its SHA256 hash.
* Reduced the overall I2NP message checksum from a full 32 byte SHA256 to
the first byte of the SHA256.
* Added a new "netId" flag to let routers drop references to other routers
who we won't be able to talk to.
* Extended the timestamper to get a second (or third) opinion whenever it
wants to actually adjust the clock offset.
* Replaced that kludge of a timestamp I2NP message with a full blown
DateMessage.
* Substantial memory optimizations within the router and the SDK to reduce
GC churn. Client apps and the streaming libs have not been tuned,
however.
* More bugfixes thank you can shake a stick at.

* Updated jbigi source to handle 64bit CPUs. The bundled jbigi.jar still
only contains 32bit versions, so build your own, placing libjbigi.so in
your install dir if necessary. (thanks mule!)
* Added support for libjbigi-$os-athlon64 to NativeBigInteger and CPUID
(thanks spaetz!)
a rooted app context. The core itself has its own I2PAppContext
(see its javadoc for, uh, docs), and the router extends that to
expose the router's singletons. The main point of this is to
make it so that we can run multiple routers in the same JVM, even
to allow different apps in the same JVM to switch singleton
implementations (e.g. run some routers with one set of profile
calculators, and other routers with a different one).
There is still some work to be done regarding the actual boot up
of multiple routers in a JVM, as well as their configuration,
though the plan is to have the RouterContext override the
I2PAppContext's getProperty/getPropertyNames methods to read from
a config file (seperate ones per context) instead of using the
System.getProperty that the base I2PAppContext uses.
Once the multi-router is working, i'll shim in a VMCommSystem
that doesn't depend upon sockets or threads to read/write (and
that uses configurable message send delays / disconnects / etc,
perhaps using data from the routerContext.getProperty to drive it).
I could hold off until the sim is all working, but there's a
truckload of changes in here and I hate dealing with conflicts ;)
Everything works - I've been running 'er for a while and kicked
the tires a bit, but if you see something amiss, please let me
know.
