Hi, HAProxy 2.7.8 was released on 2023/05/02. It added 1 new commit after version 2.7.7.
This version is released just a few days after the previous one with a single fix only. Its purpose is to solve an issue in the QUIC submodule. This bug is present since the 2.7.7 only and never affected the 2.8 development tree. It causes the haproxy process to crash on each new connection accepted by a QUIC listener. This means that all those who use QUIC with 2.7.7 should upgrade to 2.7.8. Otherwise, there is no need to upgrade on this new version. This issue has been introduced along the mechanism to balance QUIC connections accross threads on accept. This feature relied on a commit which itself was not backported thus causing the unexpected behavior. Despite our care, maintaining stable branches and backporting specific commits is still a tedious process. In most cases, our regression tests helps us to detect the most glaring issues. However, for QUIC we are still at loss here due to the young ecosystem and the lack of testing tools. We're still investigating on how to improve this. If anyone is interested here, do not hesitate to participate on it. Anyway, thanks to our community who spotted this issue and help to quickly resolve it. ############################################################################################# Please find the usual URLs below : Site index : https://www.haproxy.org/ Documentation : https://docs.haproxy.org/ Wiki : https://github.com/haproxy/wiki/wiki Discourse : https://discourse.haproxy.org/ Slack channel : https://slack.haproxy.org/ Issue tracker : https://github.com/haproxy/haproxy/issues Sources : https://www.haproxy.org/download/2.7/src/ Git repository : https://git.haproxy.org/git/haproxy-2.7.git/ Git Web browsing : https://git.haproxy.org/?p=haproxy-2.7.git Changelog : https://www.haproxy.org/download/2.7/src/CHANGELOG Dataplane API : https://github.com/haproxytech/dataplaneapi/releases/latest Pending bugs : https://www.haproxy.org/l/pending-bugs Reviewed bugs : https://www.haproxy.org/l/reviewed-bugs Code reports : https://www.haproxy.org/l/code-reports Latest builds : https://www.haproxy.org/l/dev-packages --- Complete changelog : Willy Tarreau (1): MINOR: listener: remove the now useless LI_F_QUIC_LISTENER flag -- Amaury Denoyelle
