April 2026 (2026-04) monthly summary for kamailio/kamailio: Delivered three core improvements to the http_async_client that enhance performance, compatibility, and stability. 1) Introduced HTTP Version Control Parameter for Async HTTP Requests: added $http_req(http_version) to control CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION, enabling optimized behavior for HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 with accompanying docs. 2) PATCH HTTP Method Support in http_async_client: added PATCH support and user-facing documentation to enable partial resource updates. 3) Memory Management Fixes in http_async_client: resolved memory leaks and ensured proper deallocation, reducing use-after-free risk and improving stability. These changes are supported by commits: 8fddbe58db0b5b6c62551f17fac1dd5597d3ebac; eb32d0edfc04213ca73563d76ab622678a6879c9; eb348f3c595bfec0061efa284f6436c2f4e0d375; 7dfaf9ad4adc04267a9a1a321722a2a08970a188; 779cf46e2565e96103223bf9040a30fe612a3748. Documentation updates accompany all changes.

January 2026 (2026-01) focused on strengthening UAC transaction handling in kamailio/kamailio. Delivered a targeted feature that propagates the UAC flag to the UAS request within UAC transactions by updating the replace_callback, improving flag accuracy and state management across SIP transactions. The change enhances reliability of call setup and message handling with minimal surface area and a single focused commit. Major bug fixes: No standalone bug fixes were tracked for this month; the primary value came from the feature enhancement and its impact on signaling correctness.

December 2024 monthly summary for kamailio/kamailio focusing on memory safety, cleanup patterns, and code readability. Key work includes: 1) systemd logging: implemented fixup_free_* cleanup handlers to ensure proper memory/resource cleanup in sd_journal_print and sd_journal_send_xavp; 2) LWSC resource management: added fixup_free_spve_all to exported functions in lwsc_mod.c to ensure SPVE data is properly cleaned up; 3) formatting improvements: reformatted exported structures in Lost and Mangler modules for readability; no functional changes. These changes reduce memory leaks and stability risk, improve maintainability, and set a cleaner foundation for future feature work. Technologies demonstrated include C, memory management and cleanup patterns, systemd journald integration, and codebase readability improvements.
