 # Release Notes

+# 9.19.0 (2026-04-27)
+
+## 🚀 Highlights
+
+### FIPS-Compatible Script Helper
+
+`Script` now supports a FIPS-safe execution mode that avoids client-side SHA-1 computation, which is blocked in strict FIPS environments. A new `NewScriptServerSHA` constructor uses `SCRIPT LOAD` to obtain and cache the digest from the server, then runs commands via `EVALSHA`/`EVALSHA_RO`. Falls back to `EVAL`/`EVALRO` if loading fails, and transparently retries once on `NOSCRIPT`. The default behavior is unchanged for existing users.
+
+([#3700](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3700)) by [@chaitanyabodlapati](https://github.com/chaitanyabodlapati)
+
+### FT.AGGREGATE Step-Based Pipeline Builder
+
+Added a new step-based `FT.AGGREGATE` pipeline API via `FTAggregateOptions.Steps`, allowing `LOAD`, `APPLY`, `GROUPBY`, and `SORTBY` (with per-step `MAX`) to be repeated and interleaved in arbitrary order — matching Redis's native multi-stage aggregation semantics. The legacy `Load`/`Apply`/`GroupBy`/`SortBy`/`SortByMax` fields are now deprecated.
+
+([#3782](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3782)) by [@ndyakov](https://github.com/ndyakov)
+
+### Raw RESP Protocol Access
+
+Added `DoRaw` and `DoRawWriteTo` methods for executing arbitrary commands and reading the raw RESP response. Useful for proxying, custom protocol inspection, and working with commands not yet wrapped by go-redis.
+
+([#3713](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3713)) by [@ofekshenawa](https://github.com/ofekshenawa)
+
+### Configurable Dial Retry Backoff
+
+Added `DialerRetryBackoff` option (plumbed through `Options`, `ClusterOptions`, `RingOptions`, `FailoverOptions`) to let callers customize the delay between failed dial attempts. Helpers `DialRetryBackoffConstant` and `DialRetryBackoffExponential` (with jitter and cap) are provided out of the box. Dial timeout is now also applied **per attempt** rather than across all retries.
+
+([#3706](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3706), [#3705](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3705)) by [@mwhooker](https://github.com/mwhooker)
+
+## ✨ New Features
+
+- **FT.AGGREGATE Steps**: Step-based pipeline builder for `FT.AGGREGATE` with support for repeated/interleaved `LOAD`, `APPLY`, `GROUPBY`, and `SORTBY` stages ([#3782](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3782)) by [@ndyakov](https://github.com/ndyakov)
+- **VectorSet commands**: Added `VISMEMBER` and `WITHATTRIBS` support ([#3753](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3753)) by [@romanpovol](https://github.com/romanpovol)
+- **FIPS-safe Script**: `NewScriptServerSHA` uses `SCRIPT LOAD` to obtain the digest from the server, avoiding client-side SHA-1 ([#3700](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3700)) by [@chaitanyabodlapati](https://github.com/chaitanyabodlapati)
+- **Raw RESP access**: `DoRaw` and `DoRawWriteTo` for raw RESP protocol access ([#3713](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3713)) by [@ofekshenawa](https://github.com/ofekshenawa)
+- **Dial retry backoff**: `DialerRetryBackoff` function option with constant and exponential helpers ([#3706](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3706)) by [@mwhooker](https://github.com/mwhooker)
+- **Typed NOSCRIPT error**: Redis `NOSCRIPT` replies are now surfaced as a typed error for easier handling ([#3738](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3738)) by [@LINKIWI](https://github.com/LINKIWI)
+- **PubSub ClientSetName**: Added `ClientSetName` method to `PubSub` ([#3727](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3727)) by [@Flack74](https://github.com/Flack74)
+- **ReplicaOf**: New `ReplicaOf` method replaces the deprecated `SlaveOf` ([#3720](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3720)) by [@Copilot](https://github.com/apps/copilot-swe-agent)

+
+## 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+- **Auto hostname type detection**: Improved endpoint type detection for maintenance notifications using DNS-based classification; handles empty hosts and expanded private-IP ranges ([#3789](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3789)) by [@ndyakov](https://github.com/ndyakov)
+- **HELLO fallback**: Don't send `CLIENT MAINT_NOTIFICATIONS` handshake when `HELLO` fails and connection falls back to RESP2; fail fast when explicitly enabled with RESP3 ([#3788](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3788)) by [@ndyakov](https://github.com/ndyakov)
+- **Dial TCP retry**: `ShouldRetry` now treats `net.OpError` with `Op == "dial"` timeout errors as safe to retry since no command was sent ([#3787](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3787)) by [@vladisa88](https://github.com/vladisa88)
+- **wrappedOnClose leak**: Fixed resource leak caused by repeatedly wrapping `baseClient` close logic; replaced with a bounded, concurrency-safe named-hook registry ([#3785](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3785)) by [@ndyakov](https://github.com/ndyakov)
+- **Pool Close() on stale connections**: Suppress close errors (e.g., TLS `closeNotify` timeouts) for connections already dropped by the server due to idle timeout ([#3778](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3778)) by [@ofekshenawa](https://github.com/ofekshenawa)
+- **FIFO waiter ordering**: Fixed race in `ConnStateMachine.notifyWaiters` that could wake multiple waiters under a single mutex hold and violate FIFO ordering ([#3777](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3777)) by [@0x48core](https://github.com/0x48core)
+- **Lua READONLY detection**: Detect `READONLY` errors embedded in Lua script error messages on read-only replicas so commands are correctly retried ([#3769](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3769)) by [@zhengjilei](https://github.com/zhengjilei)
+- **VectorScoreSliceCmd RESP2**: Fixed `VSimWithScores`, `VSimWithArgsWithScores`, and `VLinksWithScores` which were broken on RESP2 connections returning flat arrays instead of maps ([#3767](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3767)) by [@Copilot](https://github.com/apps/copilot-swe-agent)
+- **Closed connection handling**: Two fixes for closed connection handling in the pool ([#3764](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3764)) by [@cxljs](https://github.com/cxljs)
+- **ZRangeArgs Rev**: Fixed `ZRangeArgs` with `Rev` + `ByScore`/`ByLex` incorrectly swapping `Start`/`Stop`, breaking `ZRANGESTORE` ([#3751](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3751)) by [@Copilot](https://github.com/apps/copilot-swe-agent)
+- **OTel metric instrument types**: Fixed metric instrument types in `redisotel-native` ([#3743](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3743)) by [@ofekshenawa](https://github.com/ofekshenawa)
+- **Options.clone() data race**: Fixed data race when cloning `Options` ([#3739](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3739)) by [@rubensayshi](https://github.com/rubensayshi)
+- **Connection closure metrics**: Fixed connection closure metrics and enabled all metric groups by default in `redisotel-native` ([#3735](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3735)) by [@ofekshenawa](https://github.com/ofekshenawa)
+- **OTel semconv v1.38.0**: Use metric definition from `otel/semconv/v1.38.0` in `redisotel-native` ([#3731](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3731)) by [@wzy9607](https://github.com/wzy9607)
+- **SETNX semantics**: Use `SET ... NX` instead of the deprecated `SETNX` command ([#3723](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3723)) by [@ndyakov](https://github.com/ndyakov)
+- **TIME keyless routing**: Mark `TIME` as a keyless command for correct cluster routing ([#3722](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3722)) by [@fatal10110](https://github.com/fatal10110)
+- **Dial timeout per retry**: Dial timeout now applies per attempt instead of across all retry attempts combined ([#3705](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3705)) by [@mwhooker](https://github.com/mwhooker)
+- **Cluster metrics attributes**: Fixed `pool.name` being appended per node, which corrupted and dropped user-provided custom attributes ([#3699](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3699)) by [@Jesse-Bonfire](https://github.com/Jesse-Bonfire)
+- **initConn nil dereference**: Fixed nil pointer dereference and potential deadlock in `*baseClient.initConn()`; added explicit nil option guards to client constructors ([#3676](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3676)) by [@olde-ducke](https://github.com/olde-ducke)
+
+## ⚡ Performance
+
+- **RESP reader**: Optimized RESP reader by eliminating intermediate string allocations ([#3774](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3774)) by [@Aaditya-dubey1](https://github.com/Aaditya-dubey1)
+- **Inline rendezvous hashing**: Replaced `github.com/dgryski/go-rendezvous` dependency with an in-repo implementation in `internal/hashtag`, reducing the dependency graph while preserving algorithm parity ([#3762](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3762)) by [@bigsk05](https://github.com/bigsk05)
+
+## 🧪 Testing & Infrastructure
+
+- **Release automation**: Added `repository`, `ref`, and `client-libs-test-image-tag` inputs to the `run-tests` composite action; `redis-version` is now optional so unstable builds use `REDIS_VERSION` from the Makefile ([#3749](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3749)) by [@dariaguy](https://github.com/dariaguy)
+- **Go 1.24**: Updated minimum Go version to 1.24 and use `-compat=1.24` in release scripts ([#3714](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3714), [#3754](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3754)) by [@ndyakov](https://github.com/ndyakov), [@cxljs](https://github.com/cxljs)
+
+## 🧰 Maintenance
+
+- **Pool state machine**: Removed redundant `Conn.closed` atomic field in favor of the state machine's `StateClosed` ([#3783](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3783)) by [@cxljs](https://github.com/cxljs)
+- **OTel SDK**: Updated OpenTelemetry SDK dependencies in `redisotel`/`redisotel-native` ([#3770](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3770)) by [@ndyakov](https://github.com/ndyakov)
+- **Go 1.21+ built-ins**: Use `maps.Keys`, `slices.Collect`, `slices.Contains`, `clear()`, and `slices.SortFunc` instead of custom helpers ([#3758](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3758), [#3746](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3746)) by [@cxljs](https://github.com/cxljs)
+- **HGetAll docs**: Added Go doc comment to `HGetAll` describing behavior and complexity ([#3776](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3776)) by [@0x48core](https://github.com/0x48core)
+- **Docs links**: Fixed irrelevant docs links ([#3724](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3724)) by [@olzhas-sabiyev](https://github.com/olzhas-sabiyev)
+- **Examples cleanup**: Removed throughput binary from examples ([#3733](https://github.com/redis/go-redis/pull/3733)) by [@ndyakov](https://github.com/ndyakov)

 # Releasing

-1. Run `release.sh` script which updates versions in go.mod files and pushes a new branch to GitHub:
+This document is the runbook for cutting a go-redis release. It is intended
+for maintainers with write/tag access to the repository.
+
+For the format and style of the release notes themselves, see
+[.github/RELEASE_NOTES_TEMPLATE.md](./.github/RELEASE_NOTES_TEMPLATE.md).
+
+## Versioning
+
+go-redis follows [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/):
+
+- **Patch** (`vX.Y.Z+1`) — bug fixes, no API changes.
+- **Minor** (`vX.Y+1.0`) — backwards-compatible new features, deprecations.
+- **Major** (`vX+1.0.0`) — breaking changes. Coordinate with the team first.
+
+Pre-releases use `vX.Y.Z-beta.N` / `vX.Y.Z-rc.N`.
+
+## Pre-release checklist
+
+- [ ] Target branch is `master` and CI is green on the latest commit.
+- [ ] All PRs intended for this release are merged.
+- [ ] There are no open issues in the release milestone (if used).
+- [ ] `CHANGELOG` / release notes have been considered; dependabot-only
+      and doc-only changes are excluded per the template.
+- [ ] Confirm the next version number and decide if it's a patch / minor / major.
+
+## 1. Draft the release notes
+
+1. Open the draft release auto-generated by
+   [release-drafter](.github/release-drafter-config.yml) on GitHub.
+2. Prepend a new section to [`RELEASE-NOTES.md`](./RELEASE-NOTES.md) using
+   [`.github/RELEASE_NOTES_TEMPLATE.md`](./.github/RELEASE_NOTES_TEMPLATE.md)
+   as the format. Keep the file in chronological order (newest first).
+3. Pick 3–5 **Highlights** — the most user-facing, impactful changes.
+4. Remove dependabot bumps and doc-only typo fixes from the lists.
+5. Verify every PR has a contributor attribution and link.
+6. Open a PR with just the release-notes change if you want review before
+   bumping versions, otherwise include it in the release PR below.
+
+## 2. Bump versions and open the release PR
+
+Create a release branch from `master`:

 ```shell
-TAG=v1.0.0 ./scripts/release.sh
+git checkout master && git pull --ff-only
+git checkout -b release/vX.Y.Z
 ```

-2. Open a pull request and wait for the build to finish.
-
-3. Merge the pull request and run `tag.sh` to create tags for packages:
+Run the release script on that branch:

 ```shell
-TAG=v1.0.0 ./scripts/tag.sh
+TAG=vX.Y.Z ./scripts/release.sh
 ```
+
+What the script does (and explicitly does **not** do):
+
+- ✅ Validates `TAG` matches the semver regex and isn't already a git tag.
+- ✅ Rewrites every `redis/go-redis*` line in every sub-module `go.mod` to
+      point at the new `TAG`. Trailing `// indirect` markers are preserved.
+- ✅ Runs `go mod tidy -compat=1.24` in each sub-module.
+- ✅ Updates the return value in [`version.go`](./version.go).
+- ❌ Does **not** switch branches (runs in your current branch).
+- ❌ Does **not** require a clean working tree (so you can mix it with
+      release-notes edits in the same branch).
+- ❌ Does **not** commit, tag, or push anything.
+
+Review and commit the changes yourself:
+
+```shell
+git diff                 # sanity-check the bumps
+git add -u
+git commit -m "chore: release vX.Y.Z"
+git push origin release/vX.Y.Z
+```
+
+Then on GitHub:
+
+- [ ] Open a PR from `release/vX.Y.Z` into `master`.
+- [ ] Wait for all required CI checks (build, golangci-lint, spellcheck,
+      doctests, e2e where applicable) to pass.
+- [ ] Get at least one maintainer approval.
+- [ ] Merge the PR (use a merge commit — the tag will point at the merge SHA).
+
+## 3. Tag the release
+
+After the release PR is merged, pull the latest `master` and dry-run the
+tagger:
+
+```shell
+git checkout master && git pull --ff-only
+TAG=vX.Y.Z ./scripts/tag.sh vX.Y.Z
+```
+
+The script defaults to **dry-run** and prints the commands it would run.
+Verify the output, then apply for real with `-t`:
+
+```shell
+./scripts/tag.sh vX.Y.Z -t
+```
+
+This creates and pushes:
+- The top-level tag `vX.Y.Z`.
+- A per-module tag `<module>/vX.Y.Z` for each public sub-module
+  (skipping `example/*` and `internal/*`).
+
+## 4. Publish the GitHub release
+
+1. On GitHub, open the draft release created by release-drafter.
+2. Set the tag to `vX.Y.Z` and the target to `master`.
+3. Replace the auto-generated body with the curated notes from
+   `RELEASE-NOTES.md` for this version.
+4. For pre-releases, check **"Set as a pre-release"**.
+5. Publish.
+
+## 5. Post-release
+
+- [ ] Verify the release appears on
+      [pkg.go.dev](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/redis/go-redis/v9) within
+      a few minutes (trigger a fetch by visiting the version URL if needed).
+- [ ] Announce on Discord (see the link in `CONTRIBUTING.md`).
+- [ ] Close the release milestone if one was used.
+- [ ] Open follow-up issues for anything deferred from this release.
+
+## Hotfix / patch release
+
+For an urgent fix on top of the latest release:
+
+1. Branch from the latest release tag: `git checkout -b hotfix/vX.Y.Z+1 vX.Y.Z`.
+2. Cherry-pick (or re-apply) only the required fix commits.
+3. Follow the normal release flow above with `TAG=vX.Y.Z+1`.
+4. Make sure the fix is also present on `master` (forward-port if necessary).
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **`release.sh` fails with "tag already exists"** — the tag has already
+  been created. Pick the next version, or delete the local tag first if
+  it was created by mistake.
+- **`tag.sh` reports version mismatch in a `go.mod`** — a sub-module was
+  not updated by `release.sh`. Fix the `go.mod` manually (or re-run
+  `release.sh`), amend the release PR, and re-run the tagger.
+- **`version.go` does not contain the tag** — `release.sh` did not run or
+  the bump was reverted. Re-run `release.sh` on the release branch.
+- **pkg.go.dev does not show the new version** — visit
+  `https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/redis/go-redis/v9@vX.Y.Z` once to trigger
+  a fetch from the module proxy.
