Improve the code around stash, getting rid of the strdups for a net
code reduction. Remove the special destroy helper for stash since
it becomes a one-liner.
Trade several stack allocs in the client reset function for a single
sized brief heap alloc to reduce peak stack alloc by around 700 bytes.
wsi timeout, wsi hrtimer, sequencer timeout and vh-protocol timer
all now participate on a single sorted us list.
The whole idea of polling wakes is thrown out, poll waits ignore the
timeout field and always use infinite timeouts.
Introduce a public api that can schedule its own callback from the event
loop with us resolution (usually ms is all the platform can do).
Upgrade timeouts and sequencer timeouts to also be able to use us resolution.
Introduce a prepared fakewsi in the pt, so we don't have to allocate
one on the heap when we need it.
Directly handle vh-protocol timer if LWS_MAX_SMP == 1
There are quite a few linked-lists of things that want events after
some period. This introduces a type binding an lws_dll2 for the
list and a lws_usec_t for the duration.
The wsi timeouts, the hrtimer and the sequencer timeouts are converted
to use these, also in the common event wait calculation.
When creating the stream from the nwsi, the stream was created with
its own user_space that gets overwritten with the nwsi one as it is
demoted to be the stream.
Stop that leaking.
lws_dll2 removes the downsides of lws_dll and adds new features like a
running member count and explicit owner type... it's cleaner and more
robust (eg, nodes know their owner, so they can casually switch between
list owners and remove themselves without the code knowing the owner).
This deprecates lws_dll, but since it's public it allows it to continue
to be built for 4.0 release if you give cmake LWS_WITH_DEPRECATED_LWS_DLL.
All remaining internal users of lws_dll are migrated to lws_dll2.
Until now we parse HEAD requests but don't properly fulfil them.
This adds enough that if the request pointed to a valid mount,
it will send the headers and complete the transaction without
sending the body.
Test with
$ (echo -n -e "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: default\r\n\r\n"; sleep 2) | nc 127.0.0.1 7681
It's legal and does something important, if the upgrade fails and stays in http,
it describes how the connection should be handled after sending the error code.
But most ws servers can't cope with it...
https://github.com/warmcat/libwebsockets/issues/1625
"dead bodies" that were sent but not processed by lws as server
will clog up and destroy transaction tracking if repeated POSTs
with keepalive are sent to nonexistant paths.
This patch introduces a DISCARD_BODY state that follows BODY
except the payload is not signalled to the protocol callback.
Calling transaction_completed() with pending body makes lws
enter DISCARD_BODY and retry transaction completed only after
the pending body is exhausted.
When creating a vhost and the port is already bound to another process
this flag would allow the user code to choose to have the
lws_create_vhost function to fail and return a null pointer.
