- Update from version 3.12 to 3.16
- Update of rootfile not required
- Changelog
3.16 2023-11-30
* Notable user-visible changes
* Multiple test streams started with -P/--parallel will now be
serviced by different threads. This allows iperf3 to take
advantage of multiple CPU cores on modern processors, and will
generally result in significant throughput increases (PR #1591).
* OpenSSL 3 is now detected at build time. If OpenSSL 3 is found,
various older, deprecated, APIs will not be used. iperf3 will
continue to work with OpenSSL 1.1.1. OpenSSL is used as a part
of the iperf3 authentication functionality (Issue #1300, PR
#1589).
* The authorized users file used by the authentication functionality
is now checked for accessibility much earlier during the program
startup, as opposed to being checked near the start of a
test (Issue #1583, PR #1585).
* Developer-visible changes
* BREAKING CHANGE: iperf3 now requires pthreads and C atomic
variables to compile and run.
3.15 2023-09-14
* Notable user-visible changes
* Several bugs that could allow the iperf3 server to hang waiting
for input on the control connection has been fixed. ESnet thanks
Jorge Sancho Larraz from Canonical for reporting this issue. For
more information, see:
https://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/esnet-secadv-2023-0002.txt.asc
* A bug that caused garbled output with UDP tests on 32-bit hosts
has been fixed (PR #1554, PR #1556). This bug was introduced in
iperf-3.14.
* A bug in counting UDP messages has been fixed (PR #1367, PR
#1380).
3.14 2023-07-07
* Notable user-visible changes
* A memory allocation hazard was fixed (Issue #1542/PR #1543). For
more information see:
https://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/esnet-secadv-2023-0001.txt.asc
* JSON output was improved, such as print JSON numbers as signed (PR
#1539, Issue #1435), the exit code when doing JSON output was
fixed (PR #1523), and client_api was fixed so that it still
returns an error code when JSON is enabled (Issue #1405). Also,
duplicate fields when using multiple streams was removed from the
JSON output (#1492).
* Prevent UDP packet count and operations overflow (PR #1536/Issue
#1534).
* Statistics are fixed when --omit is used (Issue #1489/PR #1498).
* Developer-visible changes
* CI builds and tests using GitHub actions have been added (PR
#1519).
* A fix for Android "unable to create a new stream error" was added
(PR #1506).
* Support for Voice Admit DSCP code point from RFC 5865 was added
(PR #1490).
* A fix for preventing a crash when RSA public key path doesn't
exist was fixed (PR #1488/Issue #1471).
3.13 2023-02-16
* Notable user-visible changes
* fq-rate (PR #1461, Issue #1366), and bidirectional flag (Issue #1428,
PR #1429) were added to the JSON output.
* Added support for OpenBSD including cleaning up endian handling (PR #1396)
and support for TCP_INFO on systems where it was implemented (PR #1397).
* Fixed bug in how TOS is set in mapped v4 (PR #1427).
* Corrected documentation, such as updating binary download links and text
(Issue #1459), updating version on iperf3 websites, and fixing an
incorrect error message (Issue #1441).
* Fixed crash on rcv-timeout with JSON logfile (#1463, #1460, issue #1360,
PR #1369).
* Fixed a bug that prevented TOS/DSCP from getting set correctly for reverse
tests (PR #1427, Issue #638).
* Developer-visible changes
* Getter and setter are now available for bind_dev (PR #1419).
* Added missing getter for bidirectional tests (PR #1453).
* Added minor changes to clean up .gitignore and error messages (#1408).
* Made sure configure scripts are runnable with /bin/sh (PR #1398).
* Cleaned up RPM spec, such as adding missing RPM build dependencies, dropping
EL5 and removing outdated %changelog (PR #1401) to make.
* Added a fix for a resource leak bug in function iperf_create_pidfile(#1443).

There are no functional changes in these files, but they are however
linked against OpenSSL 1.1.1 and need to be re-shipped before we remove
the legacy library.

Historically, the MD5 checksums in our LFS files serve as a protection
against broken downloads, or accidentally corrupted source files.
While the sources are nowadays downloaded via HTTPS, it make sense to
beef up integrity protection for them, since transparently intercepting
TLS is believed to be feasible for more powerful actors, and the state
of the public PKI ecosystem is clearly not helping.
Therefore, this patch switches from MD5 to BLAKE2, updating all LFS
files as well as make.sh to deal with this checksum algorithm. BLAKE2 is
notably faster (and more secure) than SHA2, so the performance penalty
introduced by this patch is negligible, if noticeable at all.
In preparation of this patch, the toolchain files currently used have
been supplied with BLAKE2 checksums as well on
https://source.ipfire.org/.

- Update iperf3 from 3.7 to 3.9
- No changes to rootfiles
- Update patch file to remove pg flag
- Release notes from version 3.8 onwards:-
iperf 3.9 2020-08-17
--------------------
* Notable user-visible changes
* A --timestamps flag has been added, which prepends a timestamp to
each output line. An optional argument to this flag, which is a
format specification to strftime(3), allows for custom timestamp
formats (#909, #1028).
* A --server-bitrate-limit flag has been added as a server-side
command-line argument. It allows a server to enforce a maximum
throughput rate; client connections that specify a higher bitrate
or exceed this bitrate during a test will be terminated. The
bitrate is expressed in bits per second, with an optional trailing
slash and integer count that specifies an averaging interval over
which to enforce the limit (#999).
* A bug that caused increased CPU usage with the --bidir option has
been fixed (#1011).
* Notable developer-visible changes
* Fixed various minor memory leaks (#1023).
iperf 3.8.1 2020-06-10
----------------------
* Notable user-visible changes
* A regression with "make install", where the libiperf shared
library files were not getting installed, has been fixed (#1013 /
#1014).
iperf 3.8 2020-06-08
--------------------
* Notable user-visible changes
* Profiled libraries and binaries are no longer built by default
(#950).
* A minimal Dockerfile has been added (#824).
* A bug with burst mode and unlimited rate has been fixed (#898).
* Configuring with the --enable-static-bin flag will now cause
a statically-linked iperf3 binary to be built (#989).
* Configuring with the --without-sctp flag will now prevent SCTP
from being auto-detected (#1008). This flag allows building a
static binary (see above item) on a CentOS system with SCTP
installed, because no static SCTP libraries are available.
* Clock skew between the iperf3 client and server will no longer
skew the computation of jitter during UDP tests (#842 / #990).
* A possible buffer overflow in the authentication feature has been
fixed. This was only relevant when configuration authentication
using the libiperf3 API, and did not affect command-line usage.
Various other improvements and fixes in this area were also made
(#996).
* Notable developer-visible changes
* The embedded version of cJSON has been updated to 1.7.13 (#978).
* Some server authentication functions have been added to the API
(#911).
* API access has been added to the connection timeout parameter
(#1001).
* Tests for some authentication functions have been added.
* Various compiler errors and warnings have been fixed.
