Version 0.5.10

Added

• The getPeers admin endpoint will now report the current transmit/receive rate for each given peer
• The getMulticastInterfaces admin endpoint now reports much more useful information about each interface, rather than just a list of interface names

Changed

• Minor tweaks to the routing algorithm:
  • The next-hop selection will now prefer shorter paths when the costed distance is otherwise equal, tiebreaking on peering uptime to fall back to more stable paths
  • Link cost calculations have been smoothed out, making the costs less sensitive to sudden spikes in latency
• Reusable name lookup and peer connection logic across different peering types for more consistent behaviour
• Some comments in the configuration file have been revised for clarity
• Upgrade dependencies

Fixed

• Nodes with IfName set to none will now correctly respond to debug RPC requests
• The admin socket will now be created reliably before dropping privileges with -user
• Clear supplementary groups when providing a group ID as well as a user ID to -user
• SOCKS and WebSocket peerings should now use the correct source interface when specified in InterfacePeers
• Peers and InterfacePeers addresses that are obviously invalid (such as unspecified or multicast addresses) will now be correctly ignored
• Listeners should now shut down correctly, which should resolve issues where multicast listeners for specific interfaces would not come back up or would log errors
