Release Notes

grpc/grpc (grpc)

v1.76.0

This is release 1.76.0 (genuine) of gRPC Core.

For gRPC documentation, see grpc.io. For previous releases, see Releases.

This release contains refinements, improvements, and bug fixes, with highlights listed below.

Core

• Prioritize system CA over bundled CA. (#​40583)
• [event_engine] Introduce a event_engine_poller_for_python experiment. (#​40243)
• [metrics] add grpc.lb.backend_service label. (#​40486)

C#

• [csharp tools] #​39374 Grpc.Tools can't process file Suffix name with Upper character. (#​40072)

Python

• [Python] gRPC AsyncIO: Improve CompletionQueue polling performance. (#​39993)

v1.75.1

This is release gRPC Core 1.75.1 (gemini).

For gRPC documentation, see grpc.io. For previous releases, see Releases.

This release contains refinements, improvements, and bug fixes.

What's Changed

Python

• Release grpcio wheels with Python 3.14 support (#​40403)
• Asyncio: fixes grpc shutdown race condition occurring during python interpreter finalizations. (#​40447)
  • This also addresses previously reported issues with empty error message on Python interpreter exit (Error in sys.excepthook:/Original exception was: empty): #​36655, #​38679, #​33342
• Python 3.14: preserve current behavior when using grpc.aio async methods outside of a running event loop. (#​40750)
  • Note: using async methods outside of a running event loop is discouraged by Python, and will be deprecated in future gRPC releases. Please use the asyncio.run() function (or asyncio.Runner for custom loop factories). For interactive mode, use dedicated asyncio REPL: python -m asyncio.
