iperf-3.18 2024-12-13

  • Notable user-visible changes

    • SECURITY NOTE: Thanks to Leonid Krolle Bi.Zone for discovering a
      JSON type security vulnerability that caused a
      segmentation fault in the
      server. (CVE-2024-53580) This has now been
      fixed. (PR#1810)

    • UDP packets per second now reports the correct number of
      packets, by reporting NET_SOFTERROR if there's a EAGAIN/EINTR
      errno if no data was sent (#1367/PR#1379).

    • Several segmentation faults related to threading were fixed. One
      where pthread_cancel was called on an improperly initialized
      thread (#1801), another where threads were being recycled
      (#1760/PR#1761), and another where threads were improperly
      handling signals (#1750/PR#1752).

    • A segmentation fault from calling freeaddrinfo with NULL was
      fixed (PR#1755).

    • Some JSON options were fixed, including checking the size for
      json_read (PR#1709), but the size limit was removed for
      received server output (PR#1779).

    • A rcv-timeout error has been fixed. The Nread timeout was
      hardcoded and timed out before the --rcv-timeout option
      (PR#1744).

    • There is no longer a limit on the omit time period
      (#1770/PR#1774).

    • Fixed an output crash under 32-bit big-endian systems (PR#1713).

    • An issue was fixed where CPU utilization was unexpectedly high
      during limited baud rate tests. The --pacing-timer option was
      removed, but it is still available in the library
      (#1741/PR#1743).

    • Add SCTP information to --json output and fixed compile error
      when SCTP is not supported (#1731).

    • --fq-rate was changed from a uint to a uint64 to allow pacing above
      32G. Not yet tested on big-endian systems (PR#1728).

  • Notable developer-visible changes

    • Clang compilation failure on Android were fixed (PR#1687).

    • iperf_time_add() was optimizated to improve performance
      (PR#1742).

    • Debug messages were added when the state changes (PR#1734).

    • To increase performance, the old UDP prot_listener is cleared
      and removed after each test (PR#1708).

    • A file descriptor leak was closed (PR#1619).
