Also: general patch refresh
Upstream release notes:
Mono 3.10.0 is a bugfix release with a few features.
Highlights
Implemented System.IO.Compression.FileSystem.
Uri now implements the .NET 4.5 behavior, it can be reverted to
the old behavior in the same way by setting the System.Uri::s_IriParsing
static field to false.
Performance
Remove unnecessary locking from core metadata parsing functions.
Avoid cache thrashing of locals array when looping over enumerator.
Known Issues
The OSX packages have an invalid libgdiplus library that affects
users of System.Drawing that requires it to work.
This specially affects Xamarin.Mac users that fit the following criteria:
Uses Xamarin.Mac Classic (Unified is unaffected).
Uses the subsets of System.Drawing that use libgdiplus.dylib internally
- System.Drawing.RectangleF, PointF, Colors are unaffected
- System.Drawing.Bitmap, and font for example are affected
The symptom of the problem is your application failing with:
“System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by
the type initializer for
System.Drawing.GDIPlus —> System.Exception: GdiplusStartup”
Bug fixes

it in jinfo->unwind_desc, since the latter can overflow for methods
with large epilogs. Fixes#22685.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mono 3.8.0 has 711 commits since the last release.
This is the work of 61 contributors since May 28. 58 bugs were fixed.
Highlights
Major performance and scalability improvements across the the whole runtime.
Finished the Windows 64 port.
Debugger wire protocol optimized for usb connections.
Debugger
Updated wire protocol better handles high latency connections such
as those found when doing USB debugging.
Client library now aggressively caches information and batches
requests. Under one test scenario single stepping packets
transmitted dropped from 2233 to only 16, with the latency going
from seconds to 20 milliseconds.
Performance
The JIT now better handles long remainders by powers of two,
generating significantly better code.
Over 10x faster code is generated for delegates that are only
invoked once. C# features such as async and LINQ produce a lot of
those delegates, so this improvement will impact everyone.
Improved alias analysis can now handle second order aliases and
eliminate null checks.
The runtime now has a concurrently readable hashtable that can
makes reflection heavy workloads significantly faster and more scalable.
Garbage Collection
Optimized one of the core data structures of the garbage collector;
should result in 5-10% reduction in collection times.

Instructions to disable SSL v3.0 in Oracle JDK and JRE
Oracle recommends that users and developers disable use of the SSLv3 protocol. Please follow the Instructions to disable SSL v3.0 in Oracle JDK and JRE.
Change in javax.smartcardio.Card.disconnect(boolean reset) method behavior
Prior to the JDK 8u20 and JDK 7u72 releases, the javax.smartcardio.Card.disconnect(boolean reset) method had inverted logic for the 'reset' boolean value passed to it. The card was reset upon a disconnect if false was passed to it and vice versa. Starting with JDK 7u72 and JDK 8u20, the correct behavior as per API documentation has been implemented.
In order to provide backwards compatibility to users who rely on the old behavior, a new system property has been introduced. The following command-line option can be used to enforce the old broken behavior:
-Dsun.security.smartcardio.invertCardReset=true
This property is set by default for 7u72 and later JDK 7 update releases. By default, no behavioral change will be noticed in this area for JDK 7 update releases.
Also the following command-line option can be used to enforce the new correct behavior:
-Dsun.security.smartcardio.invertCardReset=false
This is default for 8u20 and later JDK 8 update releases. In future Java releases, the property will be ignored/disabled and default disconnect method behavior will be as specified by API.
Bug Fixes
This release contains fixes for security vulnerabilities. For more information, see Oracle Java SE Critical Patch Update Advisory.
For a list of bug fixes included in this release, see JDK 7u72 Bug Fixes page.
Area: security-libs/javax.net.ssl
Synopsis: Decrease the preference mode of RC4 in the enabled cipher suite list
This fix decreases the preference of RC4 based cipher suites in the default enabled cipher suite list of SunJSSE provider.
