Core Server

Bug Fixes

• TLS information delivered in Proxy protocol header is now attached to connection metrics as if it was provided by a non-proxying client.

  GitHub issues: #3175, #3371 contributed by @prefiks, sponsored by CloudAMQP

• max_message_size had a one-off error in the validator.

  GitHub issue: #3398

• mirroring_sync_batch_size was incorrectly validated as if it represented batch size in bytes.
  It represents batch size in number of messages, so the new default hard cap is now 1M (a very high number that's impractical)

  GitHub issue: #3398

Stream Plugin

Bug Fixes

• Offset parameters were not stored correctly in some cases.

  GitHub issue: #3360, contributed by @korsmakolnikov

• Partitions list order is now stable.

  GitHub issue: #3423

• When stream clients close connections abruptly, publisher and consumer metrics get cleaned up correctly.

  GitHub issue: #3340

Management Plugin

Enhancements

• Stream publishers are now listed on the individual stream page.

  GitHub issue: #3389

• Counters have been added to the tiles of several sections on detail pages.

  GitHub issue: #3422
