This page summarizes the ongoing release planning for ns-3.12. Tom Henderson, John Abraham, and Mitch Watrous will be jointly managing the release.
Proposed release schedule
- May 25 -- ns-3.11 posted, ns-3.12 open phase begins.
- Wed Aug 17 -- code freeze on ns-3-dev, ns-3.12 RC1 posted
- Wed Aug 24 -- ns-3.12 released
Please see Release Process concerning general aspects of the release schedule.
Proposed supported platforms
- Ubuntu 11.04 (32/64 bit)
- Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (64 bit)
- Fedora Core 15 (32/64 bit)
- Mac OS X Lion and Snow Leopard (32 bit)
Packaging
We will use ns-allinone-3.12.tar.bz2 packaging as before.
Contributors can also prepare rpms and debs, but these can occur after the release, and there are some lingering issues regarding these packages:
- rpms for Fedora (Vedran Miletić)
- debs for Ubuntu/Debian (YunQiang Su)
Release blockers
None at this time.
New features being considered for ns-3.12
These should be reviewed quickly to see if they can be integrated to this release.
- Dynamic Source Routing (DSR)
- TDMA model
- ObjectMap, to add a map to the attribute system instead of a vector
- RED for ns-3
Bugs being worked
We are trying to close these bugs for this release cycle (no guarantees that we will get them all):
- documentation
- documentation
- Build OpenSolaris
- Wifi Update RELEASE NOTES
- ConfigStore
- Packet const methods
- variable length array
- variable length array
- path to attributes has bogus entries
- Patch UAN module
- TCP Nagle and RTO (also bug 1227 is a duplicate)
- LTE constructor problem
- DSDV: NULL callback
- multicast > 16 interfaces this just needs verification that it is closed
- variable length array duplicate of 928/929?
- possible UAN bug
- LogComponentEnable() does not provide error handling
- monolithic python bindings related to 1240
- TCP deadlock
- Netanim compatibility for xcode 4 and wiki updates
- Energy attribute spelling error
- forgot to increment ephemeral port
- IPV4 TCP Bind an already used port failed but without setting errno
- memset used with constant zero length parameter
- ns-3 TCP DCE problems with RST
- BridgeNetDevice: Default ExpirationTime not realistic
- Implement trivial XML output feature for Animation Interface
- Valgrind detects memory leaks from Click when using ns-3-click
- modules document fails to build
- The auto generated man pages have some error
- Add LTE trace hooks for supporting visualizer
- LTE: Add TX/RX trace support
- Ipv4Header lacks DSCP and ECN Needs patch
- Some test cases fail to clean up properly (missing DoTeardown)
- attribute path documentation broken
- RvBatteryModel segfalts if the update event happens before load changes
- simple-odfm-wimax-phy creates UniformVariable in a critical path
- Supply a mechanism to build python binding for multi-version of python
- FdReader always stops with NS_FATAL_ERROR
- Incomplete YansWifiChannel Python bindings
- TCP minRTO too low
- modular build problem
- Multiplication overflow in WaypointMobilityModel::EndMobility method
- code cleanups related to include
- documentation
- Add assertion that reference count never overflows
- remove monolithic python bindings from waf
- documentation
Also, the collection of "set but not used" bugs (such as bugs 1147-1162). Note that the general solution for bug 1170 is still in work.
Also, the collection of RealtimeSimulatorImpl and TapBridge patches (Tom Goff is looking at):
- Simulator::Next useless depends on 631
- RealtimeSimulator and Ctrl-C
- Tap Bridge and Emu Net Devices Do Not Shut Down Properly
- stopping TapBridge
- Make realtime simulator last until stop
Active reviews sliding past ns-3.12
These are not going to complete in time for the ns-3.12 release.
- BRITE Integration
- under revision
- LTE code from the Lena project
- NetDevice queue feedback
- Animation interface changes (to support XML output)
- Virtual Access Point (VAP) for WiFi
- needs updated to ns-3.11 code; needs review
- GetRelativeVelocity() for MobilityModel
- needs review
- PhySimWifi
- needs review
- thread-safe implementation of ScheduleWithContext
- simple wireless models
- Jamming model
- MPLS
- TCP Vegas (blocked by lack of progress on TCP congestion control architecture)
ns-3.12 features merged
- IPv4 header Class MinMaxAvgTotalCalculator does not implement all the methods in its interface
- Fragmentation support for IPv4
ns-3.12 bugs fixed
This list needs updating.
Feature requests
This lists some features that have been requested but for which a patch is needed.
- make spectrum model compatible with ns-3 WiFi
- ns-2 packet UID feature
- API for TOS bytes (issue 897) may wait for netfilter support
- Chord/DHT (authors are planning to revise code based on comments)
- app store and build system refactoring
