  • Support for the user space MPTCP path management generic netlink API in the upstream Linux 5.19 kernel was implemented.

    • MPTCP address advertisements may now be managed through the mptcpd_pm_add_addr() and mptcpd_pm_remove_addr() functions. Listening sockets required for accepting subflow joins through advertised addresses will be handled automatically by mptcpd if not previously created through the mptcpd listener manager API described below.

    • The mptcpd_pm_add_addr() struct sockaddr parameter is now non-const to allow a zero valued TCP port to be updated with the ephemeral port chosen by the kernel and passed back to the user through that struct sockaddr parameter.

    • Subflows may be managed through mptcpd plugins through the mptcpd_pm_add_subflow(), mptcpd_pm_set_backup(), and mptcpd_pm_remove_subflow().

    • A new mptcpd_lm listener manager interface was added to the mptcpd library. It allows plugins to explicitly manage listening sockets that are needed when advertising addresses, such as when creating listener pools. The global mptcpd listener manager may be retrieved through the mptcpd_pm_get_lm() function.

  • Propagate the "server side" flag to new_connection and connection_established plugin operations.

  • Support a new fullmesh address flag in the mptcpd configuration file and command line addr-flags configuration option. fullmesh is only relevant to the in-kernel path manager. See the ip-mptcp(8) man page for details on the fullmesh address flag.

  • Allow the mptcpd network monitor unit test to pass if it detects an active interface without any IPv4 or v6 addresses. This can occur when an interface is attached to a bridge. The bridge would have attached IP addresses but not the interface.

  • Memory leaks that occured when parsing the addr-flags and notify-flags entries in the mptcpd configuration file were fixed.

  • A use-after-free memory error was corrected in the mptcpd load-plugins configuration code.

  • Improved the underlying mptcpd ID manager hash algorithm by replacing the existing trivial hash with the MurmurHash3 algorithm.
