**********
* 802.15.4 L2:
* Fixed a bug, where the net_pkt structure contained invalid LL address
pointers after being processed by 802.15.4 L2.
* Added an optional destination address filtering in the 802.15.4 L2.
* CoAP:
* Added ``user_data`` field to the :c:struct:`coap_packet` structure.
* Fixed processing of out-of-order notifications.
* Fixed :c:func:`coap_packet_get_payload` function.
* Converted CoAP test suite to ztest API.
* Improved :c:func:`coap_packet_get_payload` function to minimize number
of RNG calls.
* Fixed retransmissions in the ``coap_server`` sample.
* Fixed observer removal in the ``coap_server`` sample (on notification
timeout).
* DHCPv4:
* Fixed a bug, where DHPCv4 library removed statically configured gateway
before obtaining a new one from the server.
* DNS:
* Fixed a bug, where the same IP address was used to populate the result
address info entries, when multiple IP addresses were obtained from the
server.
* HTTP:
* Switched the library to use ``zsock_*`` API, to improve compatibility with
various POSIX configurations.
* Fixed a bug, where ``HTTP_DATA_FINAL`` notification was triggered even for
intermediate response fragments.
* IPv4:
* IPv6:
* Multiple IPv6 fixes, addressing failures in IPv6Ready compliance tests.
* LwM2M:
* Added support for notification timeout reporting to the application.
* Fixed a bug, where a multi instance resource with only one active instance
was incorrectly encoded on reads.
* Fixed a bug, where notifications were generated on changes to non-readable
resources.
* Added mutex protection for the state variable of the ``lwm2m_rd_client``
module.
* Removed LWM2M_RES_TYPE_U64 type, as it's not possible to encode it properly
for large values.
* Fixed a bug, where large unsigned integers were incorrectly encoded in TLV.
* Multiple fixes for FLOAT type processing in the LwM2M engine and encoders.
* Fix a bug, where IPSO Push Button counter resource was not triggering
notification on incrementation.
* Fixed a bug, where Register failures were reported as success to the
application.
* Misc:
* Added RX/TX timeout on a socket in ``big_http_download`` sample.
* Introduced :c:func:`net_pkt_remove_tail` function.
Added IEEE 802.15.4 security-related flags to the :c:struct:`net_pkt`
structure.
* Added bridging support to the Ethernet L2.
* Fixed a bug in mDNS, where an incorrect address type could be set as a
response destination.
* Added an option to suppress ICMP destination unreachable errors.
* Fixed possible assertion in ``net nbr`` shell command.
* Major refactoring of the TFTP library.
* MQTT:
* Added an option to register a custom transport type.
* Fixed a bug in :c:func:`mqtt_abort`, where the function could return without
releasing a lock.
* OpenThread:
* Update OpenThread module up to commit ``9ea34d1e2053b6b2a80e1d46b65a6aee99fc504a``.
Added several new Kconfig options to align with new OpenThread
configurations.
* Added OpenThread API mutex protection during initialization.
* Converted OpenThread thread to a dedicated work queue.
* Implemented missing :c:func:`otPlatAssertFail` platform function.
* Fixed a bug, where NONE level OpenThread logs were not processed.
* Added possibility to disable CSL sampling, when used.
* Fixed a potential bug, where invalid error code could be returned by the
platform radio layer to OpenThread.
* Reworked UART configuration in the OpenThread Coprocessor sample.
* Socket:
* Added microsecond accuracy in :c:func:`zsock_select` function.
* Reworked :c:func:`zsock_select` into a syscall.
* Fixed a bug, where :c:func:`poll` events were not signalled correctly
for socketpair sockets.
* Fixed a bug, where socket mutex could be used after being initialized by a
new owner after being deallocated in :c:func:`zsock_close`.
* Fixed a possible assert after enabling CAN sockets.
* Fixed IPPROTO_RAW usage in packet socket implementation.
* TCP:
* Fixed a bug, where ``unacked_len`` could be set to a negative value.
* Fixed possible assertion failure in :c:func:`tcp_send_data`.
* Fixed a bug, where [FIN, PSH, ACK] was not handled properly in
TCP_FIN_WAIT_2 state.
* TLS:
* Reworked TLS sockets to use secure random generator from Zephyr.
* Fixed busy looping during DTLS handshake with offloaded sockets.
* Fixed busy looping during TLS/DTLS handshake on non blocking sockets.
* Reset mbed TLS session on timed out DTLS handshake, to allow a retry without
closing a socket.
* Fixed TLS/DTLS :c:func:`sendmsg` implementation for larger payloads.
* Fixed TLS/DTLS sockets ``POLLHUP`` notification.
* WebSocket:
* Fixed :c:func:`poll` implementation for WebSocket, which did not work
correctly with offloaded sockets.
* Fixed :c:func:`ioctl` implementation for WebSocket, which did not work
correctly with offloaded sockets.
