+ Bug fixes:
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Client sockets are now properly shutdown and drained before being
+ closed. This fixes page truncation issues with clients that aggressively
+ pipeline data on platforms that otherwise discard already written data.
+ The issue mainly affected Opera users and was initially reported
+ by Kevin in #3464439, szotsaki provided additional information to track
+ down the cause.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Fix latency calculation for shared connections (disabled by default).
+ It was broken since their introduction in 2009. The calculated latency
+ for most connections would be 0 in which case the timeout detection
+ failed to account for the real latency.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Reject URLs with invalid port. Previously they were parsed incorrectly and
+ characters between the port number and the first slash were silently
+ dropped as shown by curl test 187.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ The default-server-timeout and socket-timeout directives accept 0 as
+ valid value.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Fix a race condition on Windows that could cause Privoxy to become
+ unresponsive after toggling it on or off through the taskbar icon.
+ Reported by Tim H. in #3525694.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Fix the compilation on Windows when configured without IPv6 support.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Fix an assertion that could cause debug builds to abort() in case of
+ socks5 connection failures with "debug 2" enabled.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Fix an assertion that could cause debug builds to abort() if a filter
+ contained nul bytes in the replacement text.
+ </para>

+ </itemizedlist>
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ General improvements:
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Significantly improved keep-alive support for both client and server
+ connections.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ New debug log level 65536 which logs all actions that were applied to
+ the request.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ New directive client-header-order to forward client headers in a
+ different order than the one in which they arrived.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ New directive tolerate-pipelining to allow client-side pipelining.
+ If enabled (3.0.20 beta enables it by default), Privoxy will keep
+ pipelined client requests around to deal with them once the current
+ request has been served.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ New --config-test option to let Privoxy exit after checking whether or not
+ the configuration seems valid. The limitations noted in TODO #22 and #23
+ still apply. Based on a patch by Ramkumar Chinchani.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ New limit-cookie-lifetime{} action to let cookies expire before the end
+ of the session. Suggested by Rick Sykes in #1049575.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Increase the hard-coded maximum number of actions and filter files from
+ 10 to 30 (each). It doesn't significantly affect Privoxy's memory usage
+ and recompiling wasn't an option for all Privoxy users that reached the
+ limit.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Add support for chunk-encoded client request bodies. Previously
+ chunk-encoded request bodies weren't guaranteed to be forwarded correctly,
+ so this can also be considered a bug fix although chunk-encoded request
+ bodies aren't commonly used in the real world.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Add support for Tor's optimistic-data SOCKS extension, which can reduce the
+ latency for requests on newly created connections. Currently only the
+ headers are sent optimistically and only if the client request has already
+ been read completely which rules out requests with large bodies.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ After preventing the client from pipelining, don't signal keep-alive
+ intentions. When looking at the response headers alone, it previously
+ wasn't obvious from the client's perspective that no additional responses
+ should be expected.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Stop considering client sockets tainted after receiving a request with body.
+ It hasn't been necessary for a while now and unnecessarily causes test
+ failures when using curl's test suite.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Allow HTTP/1.0 clients to signal interest in keep-alive through the
+ Proxy-Connection header. While such client are rare in the real world, it
+ doesn't hurt and couple of curl tests rely on it.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Only remove duplicated Content-Type headers when filters are enabled.
+ If they are not it doesn't cause ill effects and the user might not want it.
+ Downgrade the removal message to LOG_LEVEL_HEADER to clarify that it's not
+ an error in Privoxy and is unlikely to cause any problems in general.
+ Anonymously reported in #3599335.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Set the socket option SO_LINGER for the client socket.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Move several variable declarations to the beginning of their code block.
+ It's required when compiling with gcc 2.95 which is still used on some
+ platforms. Initial patch submitted by Simon South in #3564815.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Optionally try to sanity-check strptime() results before trusting them.
+ Broken strptime() implementations have caused problems in the past and
+ the most recent offender seems to be FreeBSD's libc (standards/173421).
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ When filtering is enabled, let Range headers pass if the range starts at
+ the beginning. This should work around (or at least reduce) the video
+ playback issues with various Apple clients as reported by Duc in #3426305.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Do not confuse a client hanging up with a connection time out. If a client
+ closes its side of the connection without sending a request line, do not
+ send the CLIENT_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT_RESPONSE, but report the condition
+ properly.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Allow closing curly braces as part of action values as long as they are
+ escaped.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ On Windows, the logfile is now written before showing the GUI error
+ message which blocks until the user acknowledges it.
+ Reported by Adriaan in #3593603.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Remove an unreasonable parameter limit in the CGI interface. The new
+ parameter limit depends on the memory available and is currently unlikely
+ to be reachable, due to other limits in both Privoxy and common clients.
+ Reported by Andrew on ijbswa-users@.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Decrease the chances of parse failures after requests with unsupported
+ methods were sent to the CGI interface.

<title>What's New in this Release</title>
-<para>
- <application>Privoxy 3.0.20</application> is a beta release.
- The changes since 3.0.19 stable are:
-</para>
-
-<para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Bug fixes:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Client sockets are now properly shutdown and drained before being
- closed. This fixes page truncation issues with clients that aggressively
- pipeline data on platforms that otherwise discard already written data.
- The issue mainly affected Opera users and was initially reported
- by Kevin in #3464439, szotsaki provided additional information to track
- down the cause.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Fix latency calculation for shared connections (disabled by default).
- It was broken since their introduction in 2009. The calculated latency
- for most connections would be 0 in which case the timeout detection
- failed to account for the real latency.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Reject URLs with invalid port. Previously they were parsed incorrectly and
- characters between the port number and the first slash were silently
- dropped as shown by curl test 187.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- The default-server-timeout and socket-timeout directives accept 0 as
- valid value.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Fix a race condition on Windows that could cause Privoxy to become
- unresponsive after toggling it on or off through the taskbar icon.
- Reported by Tim H. in #3525694.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Fix the compilation on Windows when configured without IPv6 support.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Fix an assertion that could cause debug builds to abort() in case of
- socks5 connection failures with "debug 2" enabled.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Fix an assertion that could cause debug builds to abort() if a filter
- contained nul bytes in the replacement text.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- General improvements:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Significantly improved keep-alive support for both client and server
- connections.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- New debug log level 65536 which logs all actions that were applied to
- the request.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- New directive client-header-order to forward client headers in a
- different order than the one in which they arrived.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- New directive tolerate-pipelining to allow client-side pipelining.
- If enabled (3.0.20 beta enables it by default), Privoxy will keep
- pipelined client requests around to deal with them once the current
- request has been served.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- New --config-test option to let Privoxy exit after checking whether or not
- the configuration seems valid. The limitations noted in TODO #22 and #23
- still apply. Based on a patch by Ramkumar Chinchani.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- New limit-cookie-lifetime{} action to let cookies expire before the end
- of the session. Suggested by Rick Sykes in #1049575.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Increase the hard-coded maximum number of actions and filter files from
- 10 to 30 (each). It doesn't significantly affect Privoxy's memory usage
- and recompiling wasn't an option for all Privoxy users that reached the
- limit.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Add support for chunk-encoded client request bodies. Previously
- chunk-encoded request bodies weren't guaranteed to be forwarded correctly,
- so this can also be considered a bug fix although chunk-encoded request
- bodies aren't commonly used in the real world.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Add support for Tor's optimistic-data SOCKS extension, which can reduce the
- latency for requests on newly created connections. Currently only the
- headers are sent optimistically and only if the client request has already
- been read completely which rules out requests with large bodies.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- After preventing the client from pipelining, don't signal keep-alive
- intentions. When looking at the response headers alone, it previously
- wasn't obvious from the client's perspective that no additional responses
- should be expected.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Stop considering client sockets tainted after receiving a request with body.
- It hasn't been necessary for a while now and unnecessarily causes test
- failures when using curl's test suite.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Allow HTTP/1.0 clients to signal interest in keep-alive through the
- Proxy-Connection header. While such client are rare in the real world, it
- doesn't hurt and couple of curl tests rely on it.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Only remove duplicated Content-Type headers when filters are enabled.
- If they are not it doesn't cause ill effects and the user might not want it.
- Downgrade the removal message to LOG_LEVEL_HEADER to clarify that it's not
- an error in Privoxy and is unlikely to cause any problems in general.
- Anonymously reported in #3599335.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Set the socket option SO_LINGER for the client socket.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Move several variable declarations to the beginning of their code block.
- It's required when compiling with gcc 2.95 which is still used on some
- platforms. Initial patch submitted by Simon South in #3564815.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Optionally try to sanity-check strptime() results before trusting them.
- Broken strptime() implementations have caused problems in the past and
- the most recent offender seems to be FreeBSD's libc (standards/173421).
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- When filtering is enabled, let Range headers pass if the range starts at
- the beginning. This should work around (or at least reduce) the video
- playback issues with various Apple clients as reported by Duc in #3426305.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Do not confuse a client hanging up with a connection time out. If a client
- closes its side of the connection without sending a request line, do not
- send the CLIENT_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT_RESPONSE, but report the condition
- properly.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Allow closing curly braces as part of action values as long as they are
- escaped.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- On Windows, the logfile is now written before showing the GUI error
- message which blocks until the user acknowledges it.
- Reported by Adriaan in #3593603.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Remove an unreasonable parameter limit in the CGI interface. The new
- parameter limit depends on the memory available and is currently unlikely
- to be reachable, due to other limits in both Privoxy and common clients.
- Reported by Andrew on ijbswa-users@.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Decrease the chances of parse failures after requests with unsupported
- methods were sent to the CGI interface.
- </para>
