mptcpd

  • Several security hardening fixes were made including missing hardening flags for the mptcpize program and compile-time hardening (e.g. _FORTIFY_SOURCE) that was inadvertently disabled in some cases.

  • Systemd based start of mptcpd has been delayed until the multi-user environment is fully operational.

  • mptcpd will only support one kernel at run-time. The kernel may be selected through the new --with-kernel configure script option, e.g. ./configure --with-kernel=upstream. Supported kernels are upstream and multipath-tcp.org. The configure script will attempt to automatically detect the kernel, and fallback on the upstream kernel if it cannot do so.

  • mptcpd_addr_info is now an opaque structure. Field accessor functions were added to the <mptcpd/addr_info.h> header, accordingly.

  • Address filtering based on default route availability was implemented in the mptcpd network monitor through a new check_route mptcpd command line option notify flag, e.g. --notify-flags=check_route.

  • mptcpd initialization order issues were addressed to ensure that the internal mptcpd state is stable and consistent prior to invoking user provided callbacks such as pm_ready.

  • A complete callback parameter was added to mptcpd_kpm_get_addr() and mptcpd_kpm_dump_addr() to allow the user to be notified when these asynchronous calls complete. This is particularly useful for the case where no results are available, which consequently prevents the "results" callback from being called.

  • The mptcpd_kpm_add_addr() function no longer ignores the port parameter.

  • A new command line option --load-plugins was added to allow the user to specify which mptcpd plugins to load instead of loading all plugins.

  • ELL >= 0.30 is now required.

  • The mptcpd unit test suite was expanded to further improve code coverage.

mptcpize

  • mptcpize will now hijack socket() calls that specify the IPPROTO_IP protocol.

  • An issue that prevented mptcpize from updating systemd unit files on a different filesystem was corrected.

  • The libmptcpwrap library is now installed in ${libdir}/mptcpize instead of ${libdir}/mptcpd to differentiate it from mptcpd plugins.
