Fixes
-
Release Date: September 17, 2024
Fixes
CLIENT-3117 Replace an existing node in the cluster when a new peer has the same node name, but a different IP address. The existing node must also have recent cluster tend failures and not be a localhost IP address (127.0.0.1) for the node replacement to proceed.
CLIENT-3114 Support both old and new (introduced in server 7.2) error response formats in aerospike_udf_put().
CLIENT-3098 Add AEROSPIKE_XDR_KEY_BUSY status code.

-
Release Date: March 21, 2024
Features
CLIENT-2699 Support client metrics.
CLIENT-2809 Add as_exp_bit_add_signed() and as_exp_bit_subtract_signed() to support bitwise add/subtract expressions with signed bits.
CLIENT-2816 Support as_query_duration enum in as_policy_query. The AS_QUERY_DURATION_LONG_RELAX_AP enum value requires server version 7.1+.
CLIENT-2817 Support read_touch_ttl_percent in as_policy_read, as_policy_operate, as_policy_batch and as_policy_batch_read. This feature requires server version 7.1+.
Fixes
CLIENT-2801 Restrict map keys to integer, string, and byte array.
CLIENT-2809 Change value argument type from int64_t to uint64_t in as_operations_bit_add() and as_operations_bit_subtract() to be consistent with the server handling of these values.
CLIENT-2786 Update map key doc to say that only as_string, as_integer and as_bytes types are allowed as map keys.
Add "@relates aerospike" to aerospike_init_lua() doc to be consistent with other functions in aerospike.h.

Features
Fixes
CLIENT-2775 Do not use batch repeat flag on batch writes when key policy is AS_POLICY_KEY_SEND.
Update as_operations_add_incr()/as_operations_add_incr_double() docs to mention that the record/bin will be created by default when the record/bin does not already exist.

-
Release Date: January 4, 2024
Fixes
CLIENT-2647 Support default ttl in as_policy_write, as_policy_batch_write, as_policy_operate and as_policy_scan. If "as_record.ttl", "as_operations.ttl", "as_scan.ttl" or "as_query.ttl" is AS_RECORD_CLIENT_DEFAULT_TTL, the corresponding default client policy ttl will be used.
CLIENT-2706 In scan/query with max_records set, mark node's partitions for retry on next scan/query page when that node returns records that are discarded due to exceeding max_records.
CLIENT-2729 Use as_event_loop_size instead of as_event_loop_capacity to check if async commands are enabled. This fixes a memory leak that was caused when event_loops were created and closed and then aerospike_close() was called afterwards.
CLIENT-2720 Include all partition unavailable errors in the scan/query sub-error list.
-
Release Date: October 24, 2023
Features
CLIENT-2467 Add castring, keystring and certstring fields to as_config_tls. These fields allow certificates to be loaded from a string instead of a file (cafile, keyfile and certfile).
CLIENT-2570 Support as_exp_record_size(). This feature requires server version 7.0+.
CLIENT-2585 Support secondary index on a blob. This feature requires server version 7.0+.

Valid rtype for as_exp_list_remove_by macros are AS_LIST_RETURN_NONE or AS_LIST_RETURN_INVERTED. See Incompatible API change.
CLIENT-2528 On scan/query where max_retries is reached and there are no stored errors, return AEROSPIKE_ERR_CLUSTER (ie some partition(s) are unavailable) because that is the only retryable error that does not result in stored errors.
CLIENT-2440 Document valid map key types (as_string, as_integer, as_bytes, as_list).
CLIENT-2558 Set in_doubt in sync commands when AEROSPIKE_ERR_INVALID_NODE is returned.
CLIENT-2579 Allow read-only operations in aerospike_batch_operate().
Mention minimum openssl library version (1.0.2) in readme.
Update docs for as_error_update() and as_error_set_message().
Add tests to query a CDT ctx containing a string.
Adjust query_foreach tests to be compatible with upcoming server version 7.0.
-
Release Date: August 1, 2023
Features
Fixes
CLIENT-2344 Reserve each node when cluster node array is created. Release each node when cluster node array is destroyed. This eliminates the need for the user to reserve each node individually after reserving the node array. Now, as_nodes_reserve() / as_nodes_release() is all that is required when traversing each node in a node array.
CLIENT-2448 Initialize in_doubt to false when creating an error message. Single record write commands will set in_doubt after the error is created. Also, remove unused function as_error_set().
CLIENT-1308 Check for "recs-succeeded" when running the "query-show" info command. This will result in the "as_job_info.records_read" field being populated on an aerospike_job_info() call.
Use libevent 2.1.12-stable in install_libevent script.
Remove Replica doc sentence that said "Scan and query are not affected by this replica algorithm." as that is no longer true.
-
Release Date: June 22, 2023
Fixes
-
Release Date: June 21, 2023
Features
Fixes
CLIENT-2334 Retry all commands on AEROSPIKE_ERR_CLUSTER. Also, retry scan/query on AEROSPIKE_ERR_INVALID_NODE.
CLIENT-2346 Upgrade to latest luajit submodule that no longer needs to generate luaconf.h
Remove doc sentences that said "restricted to master and one prole" because that is no longer true. Replication factor 3 is now supported.
-
Release Date: May 18, 2023
Features
CLIENT-2073 Support read replica policy in scan/query. This includes AS_POLICY_REPLICA_PREFER_RACK which allows scan/query to be directed at local rack nodes when possible.
CLIENT-2327 Add as_scan_from_bytes_new() and as_query_from_bytes_new().
CLIENT-2302 Add support for Amazon Linux 2023.
CLIENT-2208 Drop support for Ubuntu 18.04.
CLIENT-2325 Set minimum Windows OS version to 10.
CLIENT-2325 Set minimum Visual Studio version to 2022.
Add async scan page and async scan terminate/resume examples.
Fixes
CLIENT-2332 Fix memory leak when async scan node commands are run in sequence and an error occurs. The async scan executor is now freed when node complete count equals queued count (not max node commands).
CLIENT-2329 Handle case when scan/query max_records is defined and less than the number of assigned nodes. In this scenario, the scan/query previously could consistently return 0 records even when some records are still available in nodes that were not included in the max_record distribution.
CLIENT-2299 Only run ttl tests when the server configuration supports ttl.
Restore luaconf.h generation in standard lua module.
Cleanup scan/query docs. Add callback code examples.
-
Release Date: April 12, 2023
Features
CLIENT-2222 Allow replication factor 3 in client partition maps. Reimplement regular and shared memory partition map lookup. Switch master/prole bool with replica_size and replica_index into new replicas array.
CLIENT-2222 Shared memory layout has changed. The default as_config shm_key has changed to 0xA9000000 so old client applications do not mix shared memory with new client applications. If you are using shared memory clients with a custom shm_key, it's critical that this key changes when linking with the new Aerospike client library.
CLIENT-2242 Support scan/query serialization/deserialization.
CLIENT-2182 Add ordered map equality expression test.
CLIENT-2291 Add debug log message with parent_id, task_id and iteration whenever a partition scan/query iteration is run.
Fixes
Only attempt to remove shared memory segment if there are no more attached processes.
Fixed failure path memory leak in as_orderedmap.
CLIENT-2280 Set correct return types in list/map read expressions.
CLIENT-2280 Set bool return type for list read expressions with AS_LIST_RETURN_EXISTS.
CLIENT-2280 Set bool return type for map read expressions with AS_MAP_RETURN_EXISTS.
CLIENT-2280 Set map return type for map read expressions with AS_MAP_RETURN_UNORDERED_MAP or AS_MAP_RETURN_ORDERED_MAP.
Adjust geospatial test to expect less duplicate records due to server 6.3 query enhancements.
In as_exp_hll_may_contain(), change "contains" to "may contain".
Declare as_val_cmp() and as_info_parse_single_response() with AS_EXTERN.
Make all common aerospike header files public.
-
Release Date: February 8, 2023
Features
CLIENT-1963 Support RedHat 9.
CLIENT-2142 Support AS_MAP_RETURN_ORDERED_MAP and AS_MAP_RETURN_UNORDERED_MAP return types in map operations. This feature requires server version 6.3+.
Add tests to compare maps and lists. This feature requires server version 6.3+.
Fixes
CLIENT-2002 Check for error in the info command response string when parsing racks and partitions.
CLIENT-2143 Return last error code received when scan/query max_retries is exceeded.
Replace yield instruction with isb on ARM. The yield instruction is treated as a nop on ARM processors which is very different than the x86 pause instruction that stalls execution for ~40 cycles. The "isb" instruction serializes the pipeline and has been shown to be roughly analogous to the pause delays and is used in other databases for spinloops where not hammering the cache line is important.
Return AEROSPIKE_ERR_NAMESPACE_NOT_FOUND (instead of AEROSPIKE_ERR_CLIENT) when the client cannot find the specified namespace.
Mention that "as_config.cluster_name" must match the server config "cluster-name" in the service section.
Remove comment about support for "cluster-name" info command because all recent servers support it.
Change "as_policy_query.short_query" doc to say "less than 100 records per node".
Change as_policy_gen doc descriptions to be identical to java client GenerationPolicy doc descriptions.
Remove "C" icon from data structures api doc page.

CLIENT-1761 Add socket_timeout and total_timeout to as_index_task.
Modified query tests to not expect duplicate records as server 6.1+ partially de-dups query responses.
Only set "-march=nocona" compile option when arch is x86_64.
-
Release Date: May 20, 2022
Fixes

Clarify how record and ops fields are used in batch writes in docs.
-
Release Date: April 28, 2022
Fixes
CLIENT-1697 In as_batch_keys_execute(), set "as_error.code" correctly when an error occurs.
CLIENT-1704 Fail on startup if the seed node is valid, but all seed node peers are not reachable and fail_if_not_connected is true. This scenario occurs in AWS installations when peer nodes are configured with AWS internal IP addresses and the client is external to AWS.
Fix compile error when using openssl 3.0 library.
-
Release Date: March 31, 2022
Features
CLIENT-1654 Support partition query. This feature requires server version 6.0+.

- A bug affecting this version of the C client has been identified. If your application uses scans, we strongly recommend that you upgrade to C client 5.2.6 at the earliest opportunity.
Features
Add as_scan_set_partitions(), as_partition_filter_set_partitions(), as_partitions_status_reserve() and as_partitions_status_release().
Add scan terminate/resume example.
Fixes
CLIENT-1610 Fix scan's duplicate task_id errors after socket timeout by setting max_retries to zero for each scan node command. This defers the retry logic to the partition tracker which resets task_id on the next scan retry pass.
CLIENT-1611 Set partition's last digest received only after the scan callback function returns true. If the scan callback returns false, the last digest will not be set and that record will be returned again if the scan is resumed at a later time.
Set scan parts_all->done = true if max_records policy not set (ie read all applicable records).

- A bug affecting this version of the C client has been identified. If your application uses scans, we strongly recommend that you upgrade to C client 5.2.6 at the earliest opportunity.
Features
CLIENT-1557 Support a list of preferred racks rather than a single rack when replica is AS_POLICY_REPLICA_PREFER_RACK.
CLIENT-1569 Support PKI authentication where the TLS certificate's common name (CN) specifies the Aerospike user name. This feature requires server version 5.7+.
CLIENT-1571 Support batch read operations.
CLIENT-1572 Support scan-show and query-show info commands.
Fixes
CLIENT-1573 Refresh and add all new peers nodes until no more peers are available in cluster tend.
CLIENT-1573 Set node rebalance_changed to cluster rack_aware when creating node.
CLIENT-1575 Force login when creating a new cluster tend connection and user authentication is enabled and the session is null.

Use github actions to run unit tests on push and pull requests. Remove travis.
Build on rhel 8 instead of centos 8 when creating rpm packages.
Fixes
CLIENT-1559 Do not wait for async connector completion when async_min_conns_per_node > 0 and connector is already running in an event loop thread. This is done to prevent deadlock.
For scan error AEROSPIKE_ERR_MAX_RETRIES_EXCEEDED, include all retry sub-errors in error message.
Convert prefix rhel to el in platform script.
-

- A bug affecting this version of the C client has been identified. If your application uses scans, we strongly recommend that you upgrade to C client 5.2.6 at the earliest opportunity.
Features
CLIENT-1377 Reject command when assigned node's error rate exceeds as_config.max_error_rate. The node's error count is incremented on any error that causes the connection to close (socket errors and client timeouts) plus AEROSPIKE_ERR_DEVICE_OVERLOAD and server timeouts. Attempt retry before returning error code AEROSPIKE_MAX_ERROR_RATE.
CLIENT-1454 Support scan pagination. Enable by calling as_scan_set_paginate().
CLIENT-1540 Support placing as_record instance on heap before calling as_async_record_listener. Enable by setting async_heap_rec to true in as_policy_read or as_policy_operate. If enabled, the user is responsible for called as_record_destroy() when done with the record.
Fixes
CLIENT-1494 Detect quick node restart when restarted node never left the cluster. If detected, rebalance connections.
CLIENT-1544 Only perform one cluster tend in as_wait_till_stabilized() because the tend now requests partition maps in same iteration as adding the nodes.
CLIENT-1544 Only attempt to contact an invalid node (referenced by seeds or peers) once for each cluster tend iteration.
CLIENT-1544 Add "as_cluster.invalid_node_count". invalid_node_count is the count of add node failures in the most recent cluster tend iteration.
DOCS-217 Fix REVERSE_RANK doc to say "Return reverse value order."

CLIENT-1486 Support user quotas and statistics. This feature requires server version 5.6+.
CLIENT-1496 Support info_timeout in as_policy_query. The info_timeout is used when fail_on_cluster_change is true and the info validation command is called before/after the query.
CLIENT-1501 Remove as_scan.priority, as_scan.percent and as_policy_scan.fail_on_cluster_change. The server no longer supports these fields. See Incompatible API change.
CLIENT-1503 Remove support for Ubuntu 16.0.4.
Move benchmarks to a separate repository (https://github.com/aerospike/aerospike-benchmark).
Fixes
CLIENT-1485 Remove ability to configure password hash as the password when using authentication. See Incompatible API change.
CLIENT-1487 Remove ability to use old authentication protocol since the new authentication protocol was created in server version 4.1 and the client already requires server version 4.9+.
CLIENT-1487 Deprecate aerospike_info_socket_address().
CLIENT-1487 Reference count session token.

Release Date: January 5, 2021
Features
Fixes
CLIENT-1391 Reset peers, partition and rebalance generations on node tend errors. This forces a client node refresh when a node is quickly restarted with the same generation, but with different peers, partition maps or rack nodes.
CLIENT-1397 Sort unordered map before packing when map flags indicate sorting should be performed.
-
Release Date: November 30, 2020
Features
Fixes
CLIENT-1380 Async queries timeout in the delay queue when fail_on_cluster_change is true and some query node commands are placed in the delay queue. Fixed by releasing the query node command (which decrements the event loop pending counter) before the final fail_on_cluster_change validation.
CLIENT-1381 Do not define MSG_NOSIGNAL for MacOS because new versions of MacOS already define it.
Remove policy comments that indicate server version behavior prior to 4.9, since the client requires server version 4.9+.
Remove unnecessary include in as_exp.h.
-
Release Date: November 11, 2020
- Requires server version 4.9+.
Features
CLIENT-1373 Retrofit support for old PredExp in addition to new Expressions. Both expression filters will be supported for 1 year in order to ease the transition to new Expression APIs. After that, PredExp support will be permanently removed. Also, support server version 4.9+ instead of the more strict 5.2.0.4+ requirement. Expression API usage still requires server 5.2.0.4+.
Add as_exp_memory_size(). This expression macro requires server version 5.3+.
Fixes
-
Release Date: October 21, 2020
- Requires server version 5.2.0.4+. It's not recommended to use this client version since client 5.0.1 has more relaxed server version requirements.
Features
CLIENT-1359 Replace PredExp with new Expressions. Expression filters give access to the full data type APIs (List, Map, Bit, HyperLogLog, Geospatial) and expanded metadata based filtering, to increase the power of filters in selecting records. This client requires server version 5.2.0.4+. See Incompatible API change.
CLIENT-1369 Remove legacy client code for old servers since this client now requires server version 5.2.0.4+.
Fixes
CLIENT-1355 Skip orphan seeds that do not have peers when other seeds have peers.
Remove "as_policy_apply.gen" and "as_policy_apply.gen_value" because the server does not support these fields in UDF calls. The read-modify-write usage model can still be enforced inside the UDF code itself.
Change HLL mh_bit_count limit documentation to 51.

Support TLS 1.2 secure socket protocol. Dependent on future Aerospike Server release.
Support IPv6 socket protocol. Dependent on future Aerospike Server release.
Support cluster-id verification. Dependent on future Aerospike Server release.
Support new peers info protocol. Dependent on future Aerospike Server release.
Support sleep_between_retries and retry_on_timeout policy fields.
Support AS_POLICY_REPLICA_SEQUENCE for synchronous single record reads.
Add aerospike_info_node().
Shared memory layout has changed. The default as_config shm_key has changed to 0xA6000000 so old client applications do not mix shared memory with new client applications. If you are using shared memory clients with a custom shm_key, it's critical that this key changes when linking with the new Aerospike client library.

Features
Support durable deletes on client side. Requires future release of Aerospike Server Enterprise Edition.
Use circular linked list for round-robin assignment of async commands to event loops.
Enhance benchmarks to write and delete multiple bins.
Fixes
Always queue async event loop close command instead of calling close directly. This is done to prevent close from being executed before previously queued commands.
Wrap macro if in do ... while(0). Fix provided by XeCycle.
Do not peek for map extension type when map is empty.

Features
Fixes
AER-5032 Don't leave a closed FD in node->info_fd.
CLIENT-718 Don't check for stop-writes in benchmarks because it can cause benchmarks to shutdown when checking a temporarily downed node.
CLIENT-721 Use cluster->ip_map to transform seed addresses in addition to friend node addresses.
TOOLS-620 Rename error message "Failed to seed cluster" to "Failed to connect".
Fix shared memory issue when a client process takes over cluster tending from a previous client that had crashed.
Check for buffer overflow when constructing index info commands.

Release Date: March 25, 2016
Features
Use reference counting to determine when to close cluster if there are pending async commands.
Add as_async_get_cluster_count().
Add usage blurb for unit test program.
Fixes
Remove "-march=nocona" flag when compiling on PowerPC. Thanks mlpesant!
Set libuv wakeup->data to event loop for externally created event loops.
Ensure all stray open handles are closed when shutting down libuv event loop.

Features
CLIENT-616 Rename as_config "max_threads" to "max_conns_per_node". See Incompatible API change.
CLIENT-616 Enforce max_conns_per_node as a hard limit.
CLIENT-616 Return AEROSPIKE_ERR_NO_MORE_CONNECTIONS if this limit would be exceeded.
CLIENT-665 Use "replicas-all" in cluster tend when the server node supports it.
CLIENT-676 Support "make install".
Use xorshift128+ to generate random values.
Support signing of OS X packages. This will only work for Aerospike employees that have the proper installed certificate.
Organize mac project files.
Add suite and test filters to testing framework.
Fixes
Respect as_policy_operate deserialize (for list operations) in aerospike_key_operate_async().
Add aerospike_init_lua() for global lua initialization. Document that "as_config.lua" is really a global config that is located in the wrong place and not to use it anymore. To preserve backwards compatibility, call aerospike_init_lua() from aerospike_connect() only once on first cluster connect.
Add as_config_lua_init() so lua system defaults can be retrieved.
Fix dubious code identified by "cppcheck". Thanks tigran-a!
Fix lua "bytes.tostring()" memory leak. Thanks tivvit!
Mark the source arg to as_error_copy as const. Thanks sgolemon!

Release Date: February 23, 2016
Fixes
Abort async command in libuv callbacks if connection is closing. This prevents the command from being processed after a timeout has freed command data.
Handle async batch case where one node returns an error and the next node returns a valid response.
Perform bounds check on returned batch index.
Fix memory leak in as_operations_new(). Thanks ramrengaswamy for the pull request!
CLIENT-671 Add logging of ip/port of node in case of errors.
Invalidate the key digest after updating the integer key in benchmarks.
Enable CDT and secondary index query tests.

Features
Fixes
Change all async pipeline methods to include pipeline callback argument to instead of a pipeline boolean. See Incompatible API change .
Enforce max async connections hard limit at node/event loop queue level.
Close async event loop directly if current thread is event loop thread.
Force link error if program calls event loop initialization without defining event library in make.
Fix "use after free" condition by returning enum from as_event_get_connection().
Move ip_map internal/external IP conversion to parse "services" so DNS lookup is not performed on every cluster tend.
Return error if operate does not have any operations.
Initialize fixed values in benchmarks.
In as_event_create_loop(), wait until uv_async_init() is called in event loop thread before returning. Removed old event loop initialized logic.
CLIENT-590 Pass in set name for batch reads when batch policy send_set_name is true.

Release Date: January 14, 2016
Features
Support asynchronous operations using either libev or libuv framework.
Support Redhat 7, Ubuntu 14.04 and Debian 8 distributions.
CLIENT-629 Provided a policy to use services-alternate to avoid internal/external IP mapping.
Fixes
CLIENT-638 Attempt socket retry if interrupted by a signal. Call aerospike_stop_on_interrupt() if socket retry is not desired.
Since openssl is not bundled with OS X 10.11 El Capitan, added ability to resolve openssl installed via brew.
Fixed memory stomp in unit test framework.
