Note
The ring buffer format has changed in this release. Older versions of the saved buffer format will be converted for a seamless upgrade. Once this conversion is completed, older releases of ringserver will detect the buffer as corrupt and discard the contents, a consequence of downgrading to an earlier release.
Major new features:
- Add support for SeedLink protocol version 4.
- Support for buffer sizes up to UINT64_MAX (aka more than you need).
- Map 24-bit SeedLink v3 sequence numbers into 64-bit range, allowing v3 clients to resume from the most recent 16,777,215 packets in the buffer even if the buffer can contain more packets.
- Add support for TLS/SSL using mbedtls release 3.6.2
- Add
TLS
flag for listening port configuration - Add
TLSCertfile
,TLSKeyFile
, andTLSVerfiyClientCert
parameters (and equivalent environment variables) for TLS configuration. - Allow DataLink v1.1 WRITE command to accept a packet ID.
- All configuration options can be specified with environment variables.
- Container images are built for release versions and published to Docker Hub: https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/earthscope/ringserver/general
Other changes:
- Add HTTP endpoints that return status information in JSON format:
/id/json, /streams/json, /status/json, /connections/json
- Add
-C
command line option to print a reference configuration file. - Add
HTTPPort
parameter,RS_HTTP_PORT
evnvvar, and-HL
option for HTTP-only ports. - Automatically convert packet buffer from previous version to current.
- Convert internal time stamps from microsecond ticks (hptime) to use nanosecond ticks, as used by the libmseed3.
- Most generated time strings are now
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sss*Z
formatted. - All legacy stream IDs for miniSEED of the form:
NN_SSSSS_LL_CCC/MSEED
will be converted to FDSN Source ID form:FDSN:NN_SSSSS_LL_C_C_C/MSEED
. - Allow ring size to be specified in fractional large units, e.g. "1.5g".
- Update libmseed to 3.1.3, adapt for miniSEED 3 API.
- Upgrade to PCRE2 10.44 from legacy PCRE.
- Upgrade mini-XML (mxml) to 4.0.3.
