Full Changelog: 2.6.90...2.6.96

2.6.90

• Adds: Support for EVAL_RO and EVALSHA_RO via IDatabase.ScriptEvaluateReadOnly/IDatabase.ScriptEvaluateReadOnlyAsync (#2168 by @shacharPash)
• Fix #1458: Fixes a leak condition when a connection completes on the TCP phase but not the Redis handshake (#2238 by @NickCraver)
• Internal: ServerSnapshot: Improve API and allow filtering with custom struct enumerator (#2337 by @mgravell)

2.5.27

• Adds: a backlog/retry mechanism for commands issued while a connection isn't available (#1912 by @NickCraver)
  • Commands will be queued if a multiplexer isn't yet connected to a Redis server.
  • Commands will be queued if a connection is lost and then sent to the server when the connection is restored.
  • All commands queued will only remain in the backlog for the duration of the configured timeout.
  • To revert to previous behavior, a new ConfigurationOptions.BacklogPolicy is available - old behavior is configured via options.BacklogPolicy = BacklogPolicy.FailFast. This backlogs nothing and fails commands immediately if no connection is available.
• Adds: Makes StreamEntry constructor public for better unit test experience (#1923 by @WeihanLi)
• Fix: Integer overflow error (issue #1926) with 2GiB+ result payloads (#1928 by @mgravell)
• Change: Update assumed redis versions to v2.8 or v4.0 in the Azure case (#1929 by @NickCraver)
• Fix: Profiler showing EVAL instead EVALSHA (#1930 by @martinpotter)
• Performance: Moved tiebreaker fetching in connections into the handshake phase (streamline + simplification) (#1931 by @NickCraver)
• Stability: Fixed potential disposed object usage around Arenas (pulling in Piplines.Sockets.Unofficial#63 by @mgravell)
• Adds: Thread pool work item stats to exception messages to help diagnose contention (#1964 by @NickCraver)
• Fix/Performance: Overhauls pub/sub implementation for correctness (#1947 by @NickCraver)
  • Fixes a race in subscribing right after connected
  • Fixes a race in subscribing immediately before a publish
  • Fixes subscription routing on clusters (spreading instead of choosing 1 node)
  • More correctly reconnects subscriptions on connection failures, including to other endpoints
• Adds "(vX.X.X)" version suffix to the default client ID so server-side CLIENT LIST can more easily see what's connected (#1985 by @NickCraver)
• Fix: Properly including or excluding key names on some message failures (#1990 by @NickCraver)
• Fix: Correct return of nil results in LPOP, RPOP, SRANDMEMBER, and SPOP (#1993 by @NickCraver)

2.2.88

• Change: Connection backoff default is now exponential instead of linear (#1896 by @lolodi)
• Adds: Support for NodeMaintenanceScaleComplete event (handles Redis cluster scaling) (#1902 by @NickCraver)

2.1.28

• Fix: Stability in new sentinel APIs
• Fix #1407: Include SslProtocolos in ConfigurationOptions.ToString() (#1408 by @vksampath and Sampath Vuyyuru)
• Fix: Clarify messaging around disconnected multiplexers (#1396 by @NickCraver)
• Change: Tweak methods of new sentinel API (this is technically a breaking change, but since this is a new API that was pulled quickly, we consider this to be acceptable)
• Adds: New thread SocketManager mode (opt-in) to always use the regular thread-pool instead of the dedicated pool
• Adds: Improved counters in/around error messages
• Adds: New User property on ConfigurationOptions
• Build: Enable deterministic builds (note: this failed; fixed in 2.1.30)

2.0.600

• Adds: ulong support to RedisValue and RedisResult (#1104 by @mgravell)
• Fix: Remove odd equality: "-" != 0 (we do, however, still allow "-0", as that is at least semantically valid, and is logically == 0) (related to #1103)
• Performance: Rework how pub/sub queues are stored - reduces delegate overheads (related to #1101)
• Fix #1108: Ensure that we don't try appending log data to the TextWriter once we've returned from a method that accepted one
