This page summarizes the ongoing release planning for ns-3.9. We are seeking a volunteer for release manager for the final release stages. Josh Pelkey and Tom Henderson are acting release managers at this time.
Contents
Tentative Release Schedule
- May 3 --
ns-3.8 posted; ns-3.9 Open phase begins - June 16 --
Deadline for proposing major new features to be merged; begin the phase of small feature development and bug fixing - June 25 --
Deadline for merge of major features identified on the release page - July 20 --
Small feature development and bug fixing ends; Maintenance phase begins - August 6 -- Maintenance phase ends, code freeze phase begins; only P1 critical blockers and documentation
beyond this date
- August 9 -- First release candidate (ns-3.9 RC1)
- August 13 -- Documentation freeze (manuals/tutorials/Doxygen)
- August 18 -- ns-3.9 posted, ns-3.10 phase begins
Release status
New feature merges
Already merged:
- Spectrum Modeling
- OFDM
- Bring rate representation in line with IEEE standard
- Enhancements to ns-2 trace reader (issue 473)
- Underwater Acoustic Network
- Rocketfuel topology reader
- WiFi patches for bugs 871, 881, 853
- Energy model
Likely for ns-3.10:
- MPLS
- DSDV
- fragmentation for IPv4: being worked by Vedran Miletic
- simple wireless models
- Jamming model
- Initial support for the 802.11g PHY
- Tcp refactoring
Minor feature merges
Merged:
- RecvIfIndex (issue 671)
- Generic sequence number class (issue 385)
- Issue 938: Add SO_BROADCAST socket option
Wait for ns-3.10:
- API for TOS bytes (issue 897) may wait for netfilter support
- Class name rename Scalar->Dimensionless (issue 445)
- NetAnim trace hooks for wireless (patch in preparation)
Bug fixing list
We will try to resolve the below issues for ns-3.9, by Fri. Aug 6.
- Core/bindings:
- 956 Bindings failure in core (traced-value) with older gcc
- 846/925, PeekData warnings http://www.nsnam.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=846, http://www.nsnam.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=925
- 826 Using uint64_t instead of Time in DcfManager
- AODV:

- 964 AODV does not work with host addressed interfaces
- 966 AODV originates new RREQ on each packet, when doesn't have valid route
- apply randommness to transmission of RREQ
- WiFi:
- 958 WiFi defaults http://www.nsnam.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=958
- 952 WifiMacQueue sender queue drops every 120 seconds of simulation, apparently for no particular reason
- 968 Beacon generation does not use CSMA deferral
- 941 Wifi Dcf attributes not reachable through configuration namespace

- 934 assertion failure in dcfmanager.h on heavy load
- 842 BlockAck crasher
- 799 Interference helper is too slow
- Point to Point:
- 948 PointToPointNetDevice does not keep track of destination addresses
- 949 Node::NonPromiscReceiveFromDevice reports a meaningless destination address to user callbacks
- 950 PointToPointNetDevice says promisc support is not implemented but it is
- WiMAX:
- mobility (assigned to Phillip Sitbon):
- Peek data warnings:

Documentation
Non-blockers, probably rolling into ns-3.10 release cycle
- 962 list of paths to reach objects contains bogus entries
- 938 missing Doxygen: http://www.nsnam.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=938
Features that may slip
The following features are in danger of slipping to ns-3.10 or later:
- VANET mobility model (no reviews)
- TCP Vegas (blocked by lack of progress on TCP congestion control architecture)
- Chord/DHT (authors are planning to revise code based on comments)
- app store and build system refactoring
- remove ./waf --regression
