Overview

Mainly a bugfix release. -o resp_obj_mem_limit is deprecated, as the memory is all pooled from read_buf_mem_limit now. Almost all connection memory is now managed by this one tunable.

Fixes a bug preventing 1.6 series to work properly on OS X. Improves automated slab rebalancing for bursty writes.

Contains code refactors and fixes related to future work. Should not have any functional changes.

Fixes

  • Dockerfile - allow override of config opts
  • Improve page balancing when writes are bursty
  • main: split binary protocol into proto_bin.c
  • main: split text protocol into proto_text.c
  • add openssl errors to SSL certificate loading error messages
  • skip setting the resource limits in debug builds
  • Use signal function instead of sigignore
  • fixing the basic tls test so it exits correctly when fails
  • net: remove most response obj cache related code
  • net: carve response buffers from read buffers
  • Do not join lru and slab maintainer threads if they do not exist
  • Restore SAN entries in testing TLS certificates
  • Changed code using strtol to use safe_strtol wrapper
  • Fix TCP failure under OS X.
