v1.8.0

Features

• A new binary sstunnel. Establish TCP and UDP tunnels to remote. Discussion: #177

  # Establish an UDP tunnel to 8.8.8.8:53 (just like what ssdns did in the past)
  sstunnel -c config.json -f '8.8.8.8:53' -u
  

• Uses async/await syntax (requires rustc version >= v1.40.0)
• Dependencies
  • tokio - v0.2
  • trust-dns-resolver - v0.18
  • libsodium-sys (switched from libsodium-ffi for better build process)
• Ping balancer
  • Calculate scores not only with servers' latency, but also availablity
  • Supports UDP relay
• Retry 3 times if it connects failed to remote proxy server automatically

Bug Resolved

• Refactored UDP relay. Now it works just like NAT. Discussion: #168
• Temporary workaround for UdpSocket WSAECONNRESET. Discussion: #179
  • Ref: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30749423/is-winsock-error-10054-wsaeconnreset-normal-with-udp-to-from-localhost

Breaking Changes

• Removed ssdns. sstunnel can fulfill its job.

  • Ref: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30749423/is-winsock-error-10054-wsaeconnreset-normal-with-udp-to-from-localhost

Features

v1.8.0-alpha.3

• Updated trust-dns-resolver to v0.18.0-alpha.3, fixed bugs and updated AsyncResolver's interface
• Ping load balancer treated request errors as a separated factor of the score of servers

v1.8.0-alpha.2

BUG

• Properly close expired UDP association

v1.8.0-alpha.1

Feature

• A new binary sstunnel

Runtime

• Updated tokio to v0.2
• Refactored with async/await syntax

BUG

• #168 Refactored UDP relay. Now it works just like NAT.

BREAKING CHANGE

• Removed ssdns. sstunnel can do the trick.

v1.7.2

• Feature single-threaded to enable single threaded mode (tokio running in one worker thread).
• Feature aes-ctr to enable aes-*-ctr ciphers. Enabled by default.
• Feature camellia-cfb to enable camellia-*-cfb ciphers.
• Ping load balancer picks the best server (with the lowest latency) instead of choose by weight (v1.7.0).

v1.7.0

Refactors

• #141 Build with Rust 2018.
• #100 Migrated to Tokio Runtime.
• #139 Refactor for using as a library. Move signal monitor outside of shadowsocks library.

Dependencies

• Replaced ToSocketAddrs with trust-dns
• #111 Upgrade rand to v0.5 and use ThreadRng
• #132 Feature gate RC4 cipher
• --feature miscreant is now can be built with stable.

Configurations

• Support timeout key in the outer object in configuration ( { "timeout": 30 } )
• UDP relay sets timeout with separated key udp_timeout
• #123 set_nodelay and set_keepalive, no_delay is configurable in configuration
• [Breaking] Replace enable_udp with mode, possible values are: tcp_and_udp, tcp_only, udp_only.

Bug fixes

• [BUG-FIXED] #105 Fixed "Too many open files" in UDP relay.
• [BUG-FIXED] Fixed bug while starting UDP relay. While starting server with plugins, it should not change the listening addresses for UDP relay, which are only for TCP relay.
• [BUG-FIXED] #106 Server should not panic if accepted socket closed right after accept().
• Implemented a new ssdns server, which can serve as a DNS server and proxy DNS queries via ShadowSocks' UDP relay.
• [BUG-FIXED] #118 #122 Fixed DNS resolving issue. It may failed to resolve remote server's address if you haven't configured any IP addresses in forbidden_ip section.

New features

• Uses impl Trait for functions
• #113 Supported xchacha20-ietf-poly1305 encrypt method
• Removed all global states in client and servers, which will allow starting multiple ShadowSocks instances in one process.
• Uses json5 to parse config file.
• #85 Support ss-manager report protocol. (Can co-operate with ss-manager)
