LGTM if CI is green.
@nodejs/lts @nodejs/collaborators ... the plan is to start a regular Release Candidate cycle for all regular LTS releases. The 4.3.1-rc.1 should be available soon with the actual release expected on Tuesday of next week if everything looks good. For the upcoming minor bump to 4.4, we'll do a RC cycle of at least a week before cutting the actual release. To avoid regressions and to make sure these releases are stable, we need as many people as possible to test the RC's.

Yeaaaaah. It's tricky cause we can't just flatten the tree -- I'll talk with folks tomorrow and see if we can come up with a solution that fixes this without breaking everything else.

  • @thealphanerd would you mind putting PR links in the Notable changes section along with attribution, it just makes it easier to click through to find stuff.
  • [c8cc179] - querystring: improve parse() performance (Brian White) querystring: improve parse() performance #4675 is a little bit of a concern, mainly because that kind of change is so ripe for finding edge cases. We've been through one release cycle with this change in 5.5.0 but I'm still hesitant. This one's not as big as a couple of the other recent perf improvements (mainly where they involve unwinding a regex with a long, complicated function) so it's borderline for me and I think I'd even prefer holding it off in staging for a little longer.
  • [d8fbefc] - buffer: make byteLength work with Buffer correctly (Jackson Tian) buffer: make byteLength work with Buffer correctly #4738 is another borderline for me, it's clearly a bug that needed to be fixed but it's also a breaking change if you happen to be relying on the existing (buggy) way it works. Not an objection for this release, but I'm wondering if we should create another bucket (label or branch) to put these kind of borderline changes in so we can consider them in isolation from the rest.

Lastly, @thealphanerd, how's the cherry-picking going? I'm experiencing a little bit of pain when doing v5.x as we move on but I imagine v4.x-staging is even more difficult.

  • I'll update the commit / changelog tomorrow.
  • let's hold c8cc179 back from this release and put it into the next release, which itself will have a longer rc phase.
  • should we make an issue on http://github.com/nodejs/lts?

Lastly, not real problems with cherry-picking tbqh. I wonder if the staging branch has made things a bit simpler?

+1 to being conservative with the perf related fixes. I want to make sure we start doing a RC cycle with every LTS release so we can catch issues faster but we definitely need everyone to help test to make that effective.

I think the cherry-picking in v4.x is going fairly smooth because we are also avoiding the semver-minor bumps.

So it looks like there are a handful of things going on with npm

4.2.4 had a similar issue but managed to avoid it via deduping

The same dedupe is not working anymore.

These problems are present in npm-install-check... specifically in the tree of gauge, which is no longer deduping specific lodash dependencies.

I have sent a PR over to gauge that updates the lodash dependency. The updated lodash modules have significantly shallower trees, doing away with the two modules that are being repeated and not deduping. This alone may fix the problem.

It also appears that npm-install-checks and node-gyp are relying on older / incompatible versions of npm-log... which may be adding to the weirdness.

At this point I am ready to revert the npm updates so that we can get and RC out... but I would really like to avoid that as there are some bugs that are being fixed by the npm update

/cc @nodejs/npm

It looks like there is an open PR to update npmlog in node-gyp. @rvagg can you escalate this?

It looks like npm-install-checks that is present in npm v2 is two versions behind. The latest version doesn't even have npmlog as a dep anymore. I'm going to experiment with updating that dep and seeing if that helps

edit: talked to @zkat version 2 - 3 do not work with npm@2. It might be possible to release a new version of the 1.x line with an updated npmlog

Hey, I'd like to lobby for including #4482 in this release. We're hitting the idle socket timeout this commit fixes, and currently have to cherry pick this commit into Node v4 and build from source as a workaround.

@mikemorris this commit will be coming very soon in v4.4.0
You should expect an RC with those updates in the next 24 - 48 hours.

We are trying to get 4.3 as stable as possible with this update and then as quickly as possible get out a release with a few semver minor addition, including #4482

Previously, test-cluster-disconnect-leak had two issues:

* Magic numbers: How many times to spawn a worker was determined through
empirical experimentation. This means that as new platforms and new
CPU/RAM configurations are tested, the magic numbers require more
and more refinement. This brings us to...

* Non-determinism: The test *seems* to fail all the time when the bug
it tests for is present, but it's really a judgment based on sampling.
"Oh, with 8 workers per CPU, it fails about 80% of the time. Let's try
16..."

This revised version of the test takes a different approach. The fix
for the bug that the test was written for means that the `disconnect`
event will fire reliably for a single worker. So we check for that and
the test still fails when the fix is not in the code base and succeeds
when it is.

Advantages of this approach include:

* The test runs much faster.
* The test now works on Windows. The previous version skipped Windows.
* The test should be reliable on any new platform regardless of CPU and
RAM.

- Hide the scrollbar on the TOC on all browsers. It was never the
  intention for it to be visible with the scroll indication in place.
  A wrapper element with 20px padding was added to accommodate for
  hopefully all scrollbar widths as well as to avoid overflowing
  content.
- Fixed the scroll indication gradient on Safari, which was caused by
  the wrong from-color, which now matches the to-color.
- Fixed a issue in old IE where the TOC didn't render on the correct
  position through setting `left: 0` and `top: 0` on it.

Currently a debug context is created for various calls to util.

If the node debugger is being run the main context is the debug
context. In this case node_contextify was freeing the debug context
and causing everything to explode.

This change moves around the logic and no longer frees the context.

There is a concern about the dangling pointer

@thealphanerd I shortened the workspace of release machines from c:\workspace\iojs+release\nodes\win2008r2-release-ia32 to c:\ws. That allows rc1 above to build the MSI, but I won't be able to make it shorter if the tree depth of npm grows again.

@joaocgreis thanks for getting to that!

I'm going to avoid rolling the npm updates into this release as we are not assured that the path issues are solved after install. I'll roll all those updates into the next RC though!
