We also need to report CGI_TERMINATED when reaping children that closed by
themselves. Keep an extra copy of the pid outside of the lws_spawn object
so it's still around by then.
The sshd example has gotten crufted a few different ways.
Adapt the test-sshd protocol and callbacks to not collide with the plugin
ssh-demo exports, for BUILTIN case.
Do not build a static copy of ssh-base for test-sshd if PLUGINS_BUILTIN is
going to provide it via lws import.
Add pvo for ssh-base to enable it on to the test-sshd vhost.
Banner staging in buf[] shared some of source and dest when it was copied
in, move it up a bit to avoid this.
Add note about rsa key disable workaround on Fedora.
test-sshd uses CGI (and requires it enabled to build) because it predates
lws_spawn... lws cgi was migrated to lws_spawn, really the test=sshd needs
rewriting to use lws_spawn directly instead of cgi.
This is a huge patch that should be a global NOP.
For unix type platforms it enables -Wconversion to issue warnings (-> error)
for all automatic casts that seem less than ideal but are normally concealed
by the toolchain.
This is things like passing an int to a size_t argument. Once enabled, I
went through all args on my default build (which build most things) and
tried to make the removed default cast explicit.
With that approach it neither change nor bloat the code, since it compiles
to whatever it was doing before, just with the casts made explicit... in a
few cases I changed some length args from int to size_t but largely left
the causes alone.
From now on, new code that is relying on less than ideal casting
will complain and nudge me to improve it by warnings.
This adds some new objects and helpers for keeping and logging
info on grouped allocations, a group is, eg, SS handles or client
wsis.
Allocated objects get a context-unique "tag" string intended to replace
%p / wsi pointers etc. Pointers quickly become confusing when
allocations are freed and reused, the tag string won't repeat
until you produce 2^64 objects in a context.
In addition the tag string documents the object group, with prefixes
like "wsi-" or "vh-" and contain object-specific additional
information like the vhost name, address / port or the role of the wsi.
At creation time the lws code can use a format string and args
to add whatever group-specific info makes sense, eg, a wsi bound
to a secure stream can also append the guid of the secure stream,
it's copied into the new object tag and so is still available
cleanly after the stream is destroyed if the wsi outlives it.
OSX changed to blow a segfault on write to .rodata, exposing that
we're dropping a NUL in what can be .rodata to set the environment
manually. We don't do this on Linux typically because we take the
code path where execvpe() is available to do the env for us.
Adapt the code to treat it as const, and underscore it by changing
its type to be const char ** in the info struct.
Currently we always reserve a fakewsi per pt so events that don't have a related actual
wsi, like vhost-protocol-init or vhost cert init via protocol callback can make callbacks
that look reasonable to user protocol handler code expecting a valid wsi every time.
This patch splits out stuff that user callbacks often unconditionally expect to be in
a wsi, like context pointer, vhost pointer etc into a substructure, which is composed
into struct lws at the top of it. Internal references (struct lws is opaque, so there
are only internal references) are all updated to go via the substructre, the compiler
should make that a NOP.
Helpers are added when fakewsi is used and referenced.
If not PLAT_FREERTOS, we continue to provide a full fakewsi in the pt as before,
although the helpers improve consistency by zeroing down the substructure. There is
a huge amount of user code out there over the last 10 years that did not always have
the minimal examples to follow, some of it does some unexpected things.
If it is PLAT_FREERTOS, that is a newer thing in lws and users have the benefit of
being able to follow the minimal examples' approach. For PLAT_FREERTOS we don't
reserve the fakewsi in the pt any more, saving around 800 bytes. The helpers then
create a struct lws_a (the substructure) on the stack, zero it down (but it is only
like 4 pointers) and prepare it with whatever we know like the context.
Then we cast it to a struct lws * and use it in the user protocol handler call.
In this case, the remainder of the struct lws is undefined. However the amount of
old protocol handlers that might touch things outside of the substructure in
PLAT_FREERTOS is very limited compared to legacy lws user code and the saving is
significant on constrained devices.
User handlers should not be touching everything in a wsi every time anyway, there
are several cases where there is no valid wsi to do the call with. Dereference of
things outside the substructure should only happen when the callback reason shows
there is a valid wsi bound to the activity (as in all the minimal examples).
Headers related to ws or h2 are now elided if the ws or h2 role
is not enabled for build. In addition, a new build-time option
LWS_WITH_HTTP_UNCOMMON_HEADERS on by default allows removal of
less-common http headers to shrink the parser footprint.
Minilex is adapted to produce 8 different versions of the lex
table, chosen at build-time according to which headers are
included in the build.
If you don't need the unusual headers, or aren't using h2 or ws,
this chops down the size of the ah and the rodata needed to hold
the parsing table from 87 strings / pointers to 49, and the
parsing table from 1177 to 696 bytes.
The vfork optimized spawn, stdxxx and terminal handling in the cgi
implementation is quite mature and sophisticated, and useful for
other things unrelated to cgi. Break it out into its own public
api under LWS_WITH_SPAWN, off by default.
Expand it so the parent wsi is optional, and the role and protocol
bindings for stdxxx pipes can be set. Allow optional sul timeout
and external lws_dll2 owner for extant children.
Remove inline style from minimal http-server-cgi
This should be a NOP for h2 support and only affects internal
apis. But it lets us reuse the working and reliable h2 mux
arrangements directly in other protocols later, and share code
so building for h2 + new protocols can take advantage of common
mux child handling struct and code.
Break out common mux handling struct into its own type.
Convert all uses of members that used to be in wsi->h2 to wsi->mux
Audit all references to the members and break out generic helpers
for anything that is useful for other mux-capable protocols to
reuse wsi->mux related features.
Refactor everything around ping / pong handling in ws and h2, so there
is instead a protocol-independent validity lws_sul tracking how long it
has been since the last exchange that confirms the operation of the
network connection in both directions.
Clean out periodic role callback and replace the last two role users
with discrete lws_sul for each pt.
On h1, cgi stdout close doesn't prompt the http close, instead it
times out. Fix that so we also close on h1, and make the close
action itself on http timeout less drastic.
As it was, GnuTLS actually marks the close as a fatal TLS error.
Until now the uv watcher has been composed in the wsi.
This works fine except in the case of a client wsi that
meets a redirect when the event loop is libuv with its
requirement for handle close via the event loop.
We want to reuse the wsi, since the originator of it has
a copy of the wsi pointer, and we want to conceal the
redirect. Since the redirect is commonly to a different
IP, we want to keep the wsi alive while closing its
socket cleanly. That's not too difficult, unless you are
using uv.
With UV the comoposed watcher is a disaster, since after
the close is requested the wsi will start to reconnect.
We tried to deal with that by copying the uv handle and
freeing it when the handle close finalizes. But it turns
out the handle is in a linked-list scheme in uv.
This patch hopefully finally solves it by giving the uv
handle its own allocation from the start. When we want
to close the socket and reuse the wsi, we simply take
responsibility for freeing the handle and set the wsi
watcher pointer to NULL.
This changes the vhost destroy flow to only hand off the listen
socket if another vhost sharing it, and mark the vhost as
being_destroyed.
Each tsi calls lws_check_deferred_free() once a second, if it sees
any vhost being_destroyed there, it closes all wsi on its tsi on
the same vhost, one time.
As the wsi on the vhost complete close (ie, after libuv async close
if on libuv event loop), they decrement a reference count for all
wsi open on the vhost. The tsi who closes the last one then
completes the destroy flow for the vhost itself... it's random
which tsi completes the vhost destroy but since there are no
wsi left on the vhost, and it holds the context lock, nothing
can conflict.
The advantage of this is that owning tsi do the close for wsi
that are bound to the vhost under destruction, at a time when
they are guaranteed to be idle for service, and they do it with
both vhost and context locks owned, so no other service thread
can conflict for stuff protected by those either.
For the situation the user code may have allocations attached to
the vhost, this adds args to lws_vhost_destroy() to allow destroying
the user allocations just before the vhost is freed.
1) Remove the whole ah rxbuf and put things on to the wsi buflist
This eliminates the whole detachability thing based on ah rxbuf
state... ah can always be detached.
2) Remove h2 scratch and put it on the wsi buflist
3) Remove preamble_rx and use the wsi buflist
This was used in the case adopted sockets had already been read.
Basically there are now only three forced service scenarios
- something in buflist (and not in state LRS_DEFERRING_ACTION)
- tls layer has buffered rx
- extension has buffered rx
This is a net removal of around 400 lines of special-casing.
