Release notes for Sofia SIP version 1.12.11 (2011-03-11)
========================================================
Sofia SIP is an open-source SIP User-Agent library, compliant with
the IETF RFC3261 specification. It can be used as a building block
for SIP client software for uses such as VoIP, IM, and many other
real-time and person-to-person communication services. The primary
target platform for Sofia SIP is GNU/Linux. Sofia SIP is based on a
SIP stack developed at the Nokia Research Center. Sofia SIP is
licensed under the LGPL.
Changes since last release
--------------------------
- su_close() implemented using DisconnectEx() on Win32 (available on XP
or later Windows). The su_close() semantics on Win32 are now similar
to Unix/BSD.
- Application can feed hashed passwords (HA1) instead of plain text
password to the iptsec authentication library
- Using NTATAG_EXTRA_100() with server transactions. Applications can now
control whether stack sends extra 100 Trying responses after N1 timer
or retransmissions.
- nta_leg_tag(leg, NULL) now always returns the tag (old or new).
- SOA uses addresses present in SDP if they are local.
- Deferrable timers were added.
- Timing out forked INVITE client transactions is now done by stack.
The stack generates a 408 response to each INVITE transaction fork that
has not received a final response within 32 seconds (or 64 times SIP T1)
after first final response to the INVITE was received.
- An INVITE transaction that has been timed out with stack timer C is now
CANCELed automatically. Previously, such INVITE client transactions
were restarted instead of timing out under certain circumstances.
- Timing out forked INVITE client transactions is now done by stack.
The stack generates a 408 response to each INVITE transaction fork that
has not received a final response within 32 seconds (or 64 times SIP T1)
after first final response to the INVITE was received.
- Added s2check library for writing check-based module tests for network
protocols.
- User Via header with NULL host and port gets filled automatically
API/ABI changes and versioning
------------------------------
New features in API are marked with Doxytag macro @VERSION_1_12_11 or
@NEW_1_12_11.
libsofia-sip-ua:
- Added functions auth_digest_ha1(), auc_save_credentials(), and
auc_copy_credentials()
- Added function msg_fragment_clear_chain().
- Added tag SOATAG_DELAYED_OFFER_ENABLE().
- Added tags NUTAG_AUTO302(), NUTAG_AUTO305().
- Added functions nta_outgoing_magic(), nta_agent_tports(),
nta_leg_client_reroute().
- Added functions su_home_parent(), su_root_clone(),
su_root_set_max_defer(), su_root_get_max_defer(),
su_timer_deferrable(), su_timer_is_set(), su_timer_latest(),
su_task_deferrable(), su_task_wakeup().
- Added locale-independent, NULL-safe string comparison, matching and
searching functions:
su_strcmp(), su_strncmp(), su_strcasecmp(), su_strncasecmp(),
su_strmatch(), su_strnmatch(), su_casematch(), su_casenmatch(),
su_strncspn(), su_strnspn(), su_strcasestr(), su_memspn() and
su_memcspn().
- The mp_len type was changed from usize_t to unsigned.
The change is binary-incompatible on 64-bit platforms when compiled with
the configure option --disable-size-compat
- Removed globals which should have been static in first place:
- su_t64_to_time()
- mutex_trylocker()
- su_port_set_system_preferences()
- t_null_next(), t_null_move(), t_null_dup(), t_null_copy(), t_null_find()
- t_skip_next(), t_skip_move(), t_skip_len(), t_skip_dup(), t_skip_filter()
- t_next_next(), t_next_move(), t_next_len(), t_next_dup(), t_next_filter()
- t_filter_with(), t_any_filter()
- sres_record_class(), urandom
- u2s_alloc()
- memmem (on platforms that do not support memmem)
- This release is ABI/API compatible with applications linked against
any 1.12.x release. However, applications built against this release won't
work against an older library. The ABI has been tested with the nua module
unit test (test_nua) built against original 1.12.0 release.
libsofia-sip-ua-glib:
- No ABI/API changes, compatible with 1.12.0. Note, libsofia-sip-ua-glib
interface is not considered stable and may change in a future 1.12.x
release.

Notes on TLS certificate validation
-----------------------------------
Jarod Neuner has improved certificate validation facilities of TLS
transport. Significant changes include:
1) The TLS handshake is no longer handled via transparent negotiation.
Certain static methods from tport.c were exposed to make this possible.
2) Certificate subjects are copied out of the peer certificate before
the first message is sent. The stack can reject messages sent to an
untrusted peer.
3) The tport module can now report whether a secondary has a verified
certificate chain and the subjects of the peer certificate.
Added functions tport_is_verified(), tport_delivered_from_subjects(),
tport_subject_search().
Added tags TPTAG_TLS_PASSPHRASE(), TPTAG_TLS_VERIFY_POLICY(),
TPTAG_TLS_VERIFY_DEPTH(), TPTAG_TLS_VERIFY_DATE(), and
TPTAG_TLS_VERIFY_SUBJECTS().
Deprecated tag TPTAG_TLS_VERIFY_PEER().
