  • Fixes inconsistencies with null vs. empty array returns (preferring an not-null empty array in those edge cases)
  • Note: does not increment a major version (as these are warnings to consumers), because: they’re warnings (errors are opt-in), removing obsolete types with a 3.0 rev would be binary breaking (this isn’t), and reving to 3.0 would cause binding redirect pain for consumers.

• Stability/Performance: Resolve intermittent stall in the write-lock that could lead to unexpected timeouts even when at low/reasonable (but concurrent) load

2.0.571

• Performance: Use new arena allocation API to avoid RawResult[] overhead
• Performance: Massively simplified how ResultBox<T> is implemented, in particular to reduce TaskCompletionSource<T> allocations
• Performance: Fix sync-over-async issue with async call paths, and fix the SemaphoreSlim problems that this uncovered
• Performance: Reintroduce the unsent backlog queue, in particular to improve async performance
• Performance: Simplify how completions are reactivated, so that external callers use their originating pool, not the dedicated IO pools (prevent thread stealing)
• Fix: Update Pipelines.Sockets.Unofficial to prevent issue with incorrect buffer re-use in corner-case
• Fix: KeyDeleteAsync could, in some cases, always use DEL (instead of UNLINK)
• Fix: Last unanswered write time was incorrect
• Change: Use higher Pipe thresholds when sending

2.0.519

• Fix #1007: Adapt to late changes in the RC streams API (#983 by mgravell)
• Documentation fixes (#997 by MerelyRBLX, #1005 by zBrianW)
• Build: Switch to SDK 2.1.500

2.0.513

• Fix #961: fix assembly binding redirect problems; IMPORTANT: this drops to an older System.Buffers version - if you have manually added redirects for 4.0.3.0, you may need to manually update to 4.0.2.0 (or remove completely)
• Fix #962: Avoid NRE in edge-case when fetching bridge

2.0.505

• Fix #943: Ensure transaction inner tasks are completed prior to completing the outer transaction task
• Fix #946: Reinstate missing TryParse methods on RedisValue
• Fix #940: Off-by-one on pre-boxed integer cache (NRediSearch)

2.0.495

2.0 is a large - and breaking - change. The key focus of this release is stability and reliability.

• Hard Break: The package identity has changed; instead of StackExchange.Redis (not strong-named) and StackExchange.Redis.StrongName (strong-named), we are now only releasing StackExchange.Redis (strong-named). This is a binary breaking change that requires consumers to be re-compiled; it cannot be applied via binding-redirects
• Hard Break: The platform targets have been rationalized - supported targets are .NETStandard 2.0 (and above), .NETFramework 4.6.1 (and above), and .NETFramework 4.7.2 (and above) (note - the last two are mainly due to assembly binding problems)
• Hard Break: The profiling API has been overhauled and simplified; full documentation is provided here
• Soft Break: The PreserveAsyncOrder behaviour of the pub/sub API has been deprecated; a new API has been provided for scenarios that require in-order pub/sub handling - the Subscribe method has a new overload without a handler parameter which returns a ChannelMessageQueue, which provides async ordered access to messages)
• Internal: The network architecture has moved to use System.IO.Pipelines; this has allowed us to simplify and unify a lot of the network code, and in particular fix a lot of problems relating to how the library worked with TLS and/or .NETStandard
• Change: As a result of the System.IO.Pipelines change, the error-reporting on timeouts is now much simpler and clearer; the timeouts documentation has been updated
• Removed: The HighPriority (queue-jumping) flag is now deprecated
• Internal: Most buffers internally now make use of pooled memory; RedisValue no longer preemptively allocates buffers
• Internal: Added new custom thread-pool for handling async continuations to avoid thread-pool starvation issues
• Internal: All IL generation has been removed; the library should now work on platforms that do not allow runtime-emit
• Adds: asynchronous operations now have full support for reporting timeouts
• Adds: new APIs now exist to work with pooled memory without allocations - RedisValue.CreateFrom(MemoryStream) and operator support for Memory<byte> and ReadOnlyMemory<byte>; and IDatabase.StringGetLease[Async](...), IDatabase.HashGetLease[Async](...), Lease<byte>.AsStream())
• Adds: “streams” support (thanks to ttingen for their contribution)
• Adds: Various missing commands / overloads have been added; Execute[Async] for additional commands is now available on IServer
• Fix: A lot of general bugs and issues have been resolved
• Break: RedisValue.TryParse was accidentally omitted in the overhaul; this has been rectified and will be available in the next build

A more complete list of issues addressed can be seen in this tracking issue

Note: we currently have no plans to do an additional 1.* release. In particular, even though there was a 1.2.7-alpha build on nuget, we do not currently have plans to release 1.2.7.
