Hi, HAProxy 2.0-dev7 was released on 2019/06/11. It added 34 new commits after version 2.0-dev6.
We're getting pretty good! I really was hesitating about marking it final already or not, but given that we've addressed a few last minute non-trivial issues and that there are still enough code cleanups and doc updates left to keep anyone busy, I thought I'd rather slightly postpone the final release to focus on maximal stability and cleanliness than perfect schedule. In short, there was an issue with the H1 to H2 upgrade making the performance irregular, another issue affecting the end of compression in HTX, a case where H1 could erroneously report being connected on the backend side before the end of the handshake (possibly the one causing me some irregular performance in H2 to H1 tests), the unsafe thread initialization issues, and a more delicate fix for HTX to address situations where buffer defragmentation was sometimes abused resulting in low performance. >From now on I estimate that the code is the code we'll release, more or less the fixes for any bug which will be reported in between. Let's focus solely on tidying the remaining FIXMEs, the doc, and possibly exporting a few more info to the CLI/stats to help with debugging (e.g. a few H1/H2 counters are terribly missing). I noticed that no regtest failed on Travis since commit 7b3a79f6 which concluded the changes for the stacking of the connection layers that begun after the start of the periodic failures which appeared between dev3 and dev4 mainly. Thus I would not completely rule out the possibility that some deeply burried bug in the old connection code was responsible for a part of them. If this is the case, good riddance! Let's set on anything between Friday and Tuesday for the final release, the former if no more bugs are reported, the latter if some are fixed late. Please, really, no more dev for 2.0, if you have anything to submit which doesn't belong to the exceptions above, this will go into -next (which I just rebased now) but I would appreciate it if you could delay your submissions so that we stay focused on 2.0.
