Hi, HAProxy 3.3-dev6 was released on 2025/08/06. It added 36 new commits after version 3.3-dev5.
The period is calm so there are less changes, but that's not a reason for not emitting another release. Very few bug fixes, and a few updates. - ACME now supports traces for debugging, and can emit the DNS-01 challenge on the dataplane API ring, allowing to delegate zone updates. - continued preparatory work for persistent stats. This time it's about sharing the clock. For now the change is minimal, it just turned the clock into a dereferenced pointer, so this must not change anything (mainly used in freq counters and inter-thread time keeping). - some preparatory work to support aligned mallocs and aligned pools. For now no pool is aligned but the new pool declaration code and the allocation uses the new API. Again it shouldn't change anything. The aligned_alloc API depends on OSes (POSIX_2001+, MINGW and others), so if you're occasionally building on OSes (or with libcs) not covered by the CI (linux, freebsd, macos, windows), a test is welcome. I've also tested OpenBSD and Solaris 10. Solaris 11 is expected to work, but a test is welcome (installation still in progress in a VM...). - continued reorganization of idle connections in preparation for a better support for QUIC on the backend. We seem to ahve ideas pretty clear now about how all of this should assemble together so I'm confident about steady progress on this front. - and a new sample fetch function, le2dec() to decode arbitrary sized little-endian inputs to decimal. I don't expect any regression on this one (really), but build issues are not totally out of scope, so as usual please test and report.
