- You can now toggle the 'offline_mode' option from the cache manager.
- Added the 'minimum_object_size' option. Files smaller than this size are
not cached.
- If your firewall doesn't allow passive FTP transfers, you can tell Squid
to use PORT instead by turning the 'passive_ftp' option off.
- Some Cisco IOS versions expect to receive WCCP packets with version set
to three. The 'wccp_version' option allows you to change it, from the
default value of four.
- Changed configure to look for IP-Filter header files
in both /usr/include and /usr/include/netinet.
- Fixed an ACL subdomain comparison bug (aclDomainCompare).
- Fixed an ACL host <=> domain comparison bug
(aclHostDomainCompare).
- Fixed a "xstrdup: tried to dup a NULL pointer!" bug
caused by illegal hostname characters when certain
ACL types are in use.
- Fixed res_init() bug in dnsserver. We used to call
res_init(), and then clear the RES_INIT bit in
_res.options. This caused res_init() to be
called again as soon as we use gethostbyname(), and
this second initialization wipes out our changing
the nameservers. The fix is just to NOT set
_res.options to RES_DEFAULT after calling res_init().
- Changed FTP to close data sockets as soon as the transfer
ends, rather than waiting for the reply message on the
control socket (Alexander V. Lukyanov).
- Fixed some buffering problems between Squid and the
unlinkd process. By using file_write(), unlink requests
were being buffered and experiencing long delays under
heavy load. Now use use good ol' write() instead. Also
added some feedback from unlinkd to squid so we can track
the unlink request queue. If the queue becomes too large,
we block a little and wait for some acks from unlinkd.
This fixes the first part of PR pkg/8764 by Luke Mewburn.
