2.1.5
The 2.1.5 release is actually a tiny bug fix release that I'm combining with
the large 2.1.4 release.
-
Bugfix for
socket.SO_REUSEPORT
. -
Squashed bugs related to
socket.socket
failing in child processes.
These squashed bugs fix IPv6 which had a tendency of not working as expected. -
Added communication between supervisor and children, allow children to be
restarted if they fail to communicate to the supervisor. -
Added
mode=
anddelay=
optionals to thelisten
and
:ref:tls_listen
directives. Allowing listeners to spawn on specific ports
and act in different ways.When
mode
anddelay
are configured in a listener directive, that
listener will ignore the global mode and delay options for that listener.
Settingmode
anddelay
on a listener will also disable
dynamic-switches
for that listener, automatically. -
Internal module loading changes
-
Added test utilities to the test suite.
-
The blackhole environment will be reset for each test.
-
Added a lot of testing to supervisor, worker and child functionality.
-
Added a
--quiet
mode to suppress warnings when using
-ls/--less-secure
, running as the root user or not using the
:ref:tls_dhparams
option. -
Added a warning when running the server as the root user without specifying
a reduced privilegeuser
andgroup
. -
Improved shutdown procedure, now does a much better job of disconnecting
clients and closing everything before exiting. -
Added an internal counter of invalid SMTP commands. Mitigate DoS attacks,
maximum failed commands per connection is 10. Clients that violate this rule
get disconnected.
