- Windows: SDK version 10.0.20348.0 is now required.
- MacOS: SDK version 12.3 (Xcode 13.3) is now required.
- Legacy swiftshader binaries (`swiftshader/*` on Win/Linux and
`libswiftshader_*.dylib` on MacOS) have been removed (see issue #3176).
- CefURLRequest::Create is no longer supported in the renderer process
(see https://crbug.com/891872). Use CefFrame::CreateURLRequest instead.
- Mac platform definitions have been changed from `MACOSX` to `MAC`
(see https://crbug.com/1105907) and related CMake macro names have
been updated. The old `OS_MACOSX` define is still set in code and CMake
for backwards compatibility.
- Linux ARM build is currently broken (see https://crbug.com/1123214).
Changes to the CEF public API:
- Add base::Bind, base::Callback, base::Lock, base::WeakPtr, scoped_refptr, scoped_ptr and supporting types.
- Add include/wrapper/cef_closure_task.h helpers for converting a base::Closure to a CefTask.
- Change CefRefPtr to extend scoped_refptr.
-- Change CefBase method signatures to match RefCountedThreadSafeBase.
- Change IMPLEMENT_REFCOUNTING to use base::AtomicRefCount*.
-- Remove the CefAtomic* functions.
-- IMPLEMENT_REFCOUNTING now enforces via a compile-time error that the correct class name was passed to the macro.
- Change IMPLEMENT_LOCKING to use base::Lock.
-- Remove the CefCriticalSection class.
-- Deprecate the IMPLEMENT_LOCKING macro.
-- base::Lock will DCHECK() in Debug builds if lock usage is reentrant.
- Move include/internal/cef_tuple.h to include/base/cef_tuple.h.
- Allow an empty |callback| parameter passed to CefBeginTracing.
Changes to the CEF implementation:
- Fix incorrect names passed to the IMPLEMENT_REFCOUNTING macro.
- Fix instances of reentrant locking in the CefXmlObject and CefRequest implementations.
- Remove use of the IMPLEMENT_LOCKING macro.
Changes to cef_unittests:
- Add tests/unittests/chromium_includes.h and always include it first from unit test .cc files to avoid name conflicts with Chromium types.
- Fix wrong header include ordering.
- Remove use of the IMPLEMENT_LOCKING macro.
Changes to cefclient and cefsimple:
- Use base::Bind and cef_closure_task.h instead of NewCefRunnable*.
- Remove use of the IMPEMENT_LOCKING macro.
- Fix incorrect/unnecessary locking.
- Add additional runtime thread checks.
- Windows: Perform actions on the UI thread instead of the main thread when running in multi-threaded-message-loop mode to avoid excessive locking.

- The sandbox is now enabled by default on all platforms. Use the CefSettings.no_sandbox option or the "no-sandbox" command-line flag to disable sandbox support.
- Windows: See cef_sandbox_win.h for requirements to enable sandbox support.
- Windows: If Visual Studio isn't installed in the standard location set the CEF_VCVARS environment variable before running make_distrib.py or automate.py (see msvs_env.bat).
- Linux: For binary distributions a new chrome-sandbox executable with SUID permissions must be placed next to the CEF executable. See https://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxSUIDSandboxDevelopment for details on setting up the development environment when building CEF from source code.
