22.4.0

Breaking Changes

• Version 22.4.x will be the last series to support Java 11. Version 22.7.0 will require Java 17 to build and run.
• In the Besu EVM Library all references to SHA3 have been renamed to the more accurate name Keccak256, including class names and comment. #3749
• Removed the Gas object and replaced it with a primitive long #3674
• Column family added for backward sync #3638
  • Note that this added column family makes this a one-way upgrade. That is, once you upgrade your db to this version, you cannot roll back to a previous version of Besu.

Bug Fixes

• Fix nullpointer on snapsync #3773
• Introduce RocksDbSegmentIdentifier to avoid changing the storage plugin #3755
