## [0.4.4] - 2022-04-18
### Fixed
- ICMPv6 "Packet Too Big" payload size has been increased, which should fix Path MTU Discovery (PMTUD) when two nodes have different `IfMTU` values configured
### Changed
- Go 1.17 is now required
## [0.4.3] - 2022-02-06
### Added
- `bytes_sent`, `bytes_recvd` and `uptime` have been added to `getPeers`
- Clearer logging when connections are rejected due to incompatible peer versions
### Fixed
- Latency-based parent selection tiebreak is now reliable on platforms even with low timer resolution
- Tree distance calculation offsets have been corrected
## [0.4.2] - 2021-11-03
### Fixed
- Reverted a dependency update which resulted in problems building with Go 1.16 and running on Windows
## [0.4.1] - 2021-11-03
### Added
- TLS peerings now support Server Name Indication (SNI)
- The SNI is sent automatically if the peering URI contains a DNS name
- A custom SNI can be specified by adding the `?sni=domain.com` parameter to the peering URI
- A new `ipv6rwc` API package now implements the IPv6-specific logic separate from the `tun` package
### Fixed
- A crash when calculating the partial public key for very high IPv6 addresses has been fixed
- A crash due to a concurrent map write has been fixed
- A crash due to missing TUN configuration has been fixed
- A race condition in the keystore code has been fixed
## [0.4.0] - 2021-07-04
### Added
- New routing scheme, which is backwards incompatible with previous versions of Yggdrasil
- The wire protocol version number, exchanged as part of the peer setup handshake, has been increased to 0.4
- Nodes running this new version **will not** be able to peer with earlier versions of Yggdrasil
@ -62,6 +83,7 @@ and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](http://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.
- The public key received as part of the handshake is checked against the pinned keys, and if no match is found, the connection is rejected
### Changed
- IP addresses are now derived from ed25519 public (signing) keys
- Previously, addresses were derived from a hash of X25519 (Diffie-Hellman) keys
- Importantly, this means that **all internal IPv6 addresses will change with this release** — this will affect anyone running public services or relying on Yggdrasil for remote access

### Removed
- Tunnel routing (a.k.a. crypto-key routing or "CKR") has been removed
- It was far too easy to accidentally break routing altogether by capturing the route to peers with the TUN adapter
- We recommend tunnelling an existing standard over Yggdrasil instead (e.g. `ip6gre`, `ip6gretap` or other similar encapsulations, using Yggdrasil IPv6 addresses as the tunnel endpoints)

### Changed
- Multi-threading in the switch
- Swich lookups happen independently for each (incoming) peer connection, instead of being funneled to a single dedicated switch worker

- Fixed DefaultIfName for OpenBSD (`/dev/tun0` -> `tun0`)
- Fixed an issue where a peer could sometimes never be added to the switch
- Fixed a goroutine leak that could occur if a peer with an open connection continued to spam additional connection attempts
## [0.3.15] - 2020-09-27
### Added
- Support for pinning remote public keys in peering strings has been added, e.g.

- A deadlock in the connection code has been fixed
- Updated HJSON dependency that caused some build problems
### Changed

- Less nodes are stored in the DHT now, reducing ambient network traffic and possible instability
- Default config file for FreeBSD is now at `/usr/local/etc/yggdrasil.conf` instead of `/etc/yggdrasil.conf`

- A bug resulting in incorrect idle notifications in the switch should now be fixed
- MTUs are now using a common datatype throughout the codebase
### Removed

- NetBSD support has been removed until the Wireguard TUN package supports NetBSD
## [0.3.12] - 2019-11-24
### Added
- New API functions `SetMaximumSessionMTU` and `GetMaximumSessionMTU`
- New command line parameters `-address` and `-subnet` for getting the address/subnet from the config file, for use with `-useconffile` or `-useconf`

### Added
- Support for TLS listeners and peers has been added, allowing the use of `tls://host:port` in `Peers`, `InterfacePeers` and `Listen` configuration settings - this allows hiding Yggdrasil peerings inside regular TLS connections
### Changed
- Go 1.13 or later is now required for building Yggdrasil

- Multicast module reloading behaviour has been improved
### Fixed
- An incorrectly held mutex in the crypto-key routing code has been fixed
- Multicast module no longer opens a listener socket if no multicast interfaces are configured
## [0.3.10] - 2019-10-10
### Added
- The core library now includes several unit tests for peering and `yggdrasil.Conn` connections
### Changed
- On recent Linux kernels, Yggdrasil will now set the `tcp_congestion_control` algorithm used for its own TCP sockets to [BBR](https://github.com/google/bbr), which reduces latency under load
- The systemd service configuration in `contrib` (and, by extension, some of our packages) now attempts to load the `tun` module, in case TUN/TAP support is available but not loaded, and it restricts Yggdrasil to the `CAP_NET_ADMIN` capability for managing the TUN/TAP adapter, rather than letting it do whatever the (typically `root`) user can do
### Fixed
- The `yggdrasil.Conn.RemoteAddr()` function no longer blocks, fixing a deadlock when CKR is used while under heavy load
## [0.3.9] - 2019-09-27
### Added
- Yggdrasil will now complain more verbosely when a peer URI is incorrectly formatted
- Soft-shutdown methods have been added, allowing a node to shut down gracefully when terminated
- New multicast interval logic which sends multicast beacons more often when Yggdrasil is first started to increase the chance of finding nearby nodes quickly after startup
### Changed
- The switch now buffers packets more eagerly in an attempt to give the best link a chance to send, which appears to reduce packet reordering when crossing aggregate sets of peerings
- Substantial amounts of the codebase have been refactored to use the actor model, which should substantially reduce the chance of deadlocks
- Nonce tracking in sessions has been modified so that memory usage is reduced whilst still only allowing duplicate packets within a small window

## [0.3.8] - 2019-08-21
### Changed
- Yggdrasil can now send multiple packets from the switch at once, which results in improved throughput with smaller packets or lower MTUs
- Performance has been slightly improved by not allocating cancellations where not necessary
- Crypto-key routing options have been renamed for clarity

- New nonce tracking should help to reduce the number of packets dropped as a result of multiple/aggregate paths or congestion control in the switch
### Fixed
- A deadlock was fixed in the session code which could result in Yggdrasil failing to pass traffic after some time
### Security
- Address verification was not strict enough, which could result in a malicious session sending traffic with unexpected or spoofed source or destination addresses which Yggdrasil could fail to reject
- Versions `0.3.6` and `0.3.7` are vulnerable - users of these versions should upgrade as soon as possible
- Versions `0.3.5` and earlier are not affected
## [0.3.7] - 2019-08-14
### Changed
- The switch should now forward packets along a single path more consistently in cases where congestion is low and multiple equal-length paths exist, which should improve stability and result in fewer out-of-order packets
- Sessions should now be more tolerant of out-of-order packets, by replacing a bitmask with a variable sized heap+map structure to track recently received nonces, which should reduce the number of packets dropped due to reordering when multiple paths are used or multiple independent flows are transmitted through the same session
- The admin socket can no longer return a dotfile representation of the known parts of the network, this could be rebuilt by clients using information from `getSwitchPeers`,`getDHT` and `getSessions`
### Fixed
- A number of significant performance regressions introduced in version 0.3.6 have been fixed, resulting in better performance
- Flow labels are now used to prioritise traffic flows again correctly
- In low-traffic scenarios where there are multiple peerings between a pair of nodes, Yggdrasil now prefers the most active peering instead of the least active, helping to reduce packet reordering

- Session gatekeeper functions, part of the API, which can be used to control whether to allow or reject incoming or outgoing sessions dynamically (compared to the previous fixed whitelist/blacklist approach)
- Support for logging to files or syslog (where supported)
- Platform defaults now include the ability to set sane defaults for multicast interfaces
### Changed
- Following a massive refactoring exercise, Yggdrasil's codebase has now been broken out into modules
