• Fundamental HTTP/2 frame handling
• Flow control
• Some error handlings

How to test

1. Build ATS codes normally. you need neither any build option nor external HTTP/2 library.
2. Configure settings to use https.
3. Add settings to records.config to use http2.

   CONFIG proxy.config.http2.enabled INT 1
   

4. Access to ATS by HTTP/2 client.

TODO

• Refactoring
• More debugging
• Write documents

No plan

• Server Push This would probably require support for Link preload?
• Stream Priority
• Alternative Services

for client connections as defined by https://httpwg.org/specs/rfc7540.html

TODO
