We don't actually check that it provided results... return diags and
that the interface is usable if it didn't.
Also explicitly check ifa_name for being NULL, since it seems some
platforms can do that even with an ifa_addr (thanks to Jed)
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).
Add lws_display and minimal example support for esp32-wrover to match wsp32-heltec-wb32
Since no usable buttons that don't affect something else on wrover kit, assumes
a button to 0V on GPIO14.
- Add low level system message distibution framework
- Add support for local Secure Streams to participate using _lws_smd streamtype
- Add apit test and minimal example
- Add SS proxy support for _lws_smd
See minimal-secure-streams-smd README.md
Adapt the pt sul owner list to be an array, and define two different lists,
one that acts like before and is the default for existing users, and another
that has the ability to cooperate with systemwide suspend to restrict the
interval spent suspended so that it will wake in time for the earliest
thing on this wake-suspend sul list.
Clean the api a bit and add lws_sul_cancel() that only needs the sul as the
argument.
Add a flag for client creation info to indicate that this client connection
is important enough that, eg, validity checking it to detect silently dead
connections should go on the wake-suspend sul list. That flag is exposed in
secure streams policy so it can be added to a streamtype with
"swake_validity": true
Deprecate out the old vhost timer stuff that predates sul. Add a flag
LWS_WITH_DEPRECATED_THINGS in cmake so users can get it back temporarily
before it will be removed in a v4.2.
Adapt all remaining in-tree users of it to use explicit suls.
Establish a new distributed CMake architecture with CMake code related to
a source directory moving to be in the subdir in its own CMakeLists.txt.
In particular, there's now one in ./lib which calls through to ones
further down the directory tree like ./lib/plat/xxx, ./lib/roles/xxx etc.
This cuts the main CMakelists.txt from 98KB -> 33KB, about a 66% reduction,
and it's much easier to maintain sub-CMakeLists.txt that are in the same
directory as the sources they manage, and conceal all the details that that
level.
Child CMakelists.txt become responsible for:
- include_directories() definition (this is not supported by CMake
directly, it passes it back up via PARENT_SCOPE vars in helper
macros)
- Addition child CMakeLists.txt inclusion, for example toplevel ->
role -> role subdir
- Source file addition to the build
- Dependent library path resolution... this is now a private thing
in the child CMakeLists.txt, it just passes back any adaptations
to include_directories() and the LIB_LIST without filling the
parent namespace with the details
Replace the bash selftest plumbing with CTest.
To use the selftests, build with -DLWS_WITH_MINIMAL_EXAMPLES=1
and `CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE=1 make test` or just
`make test`.
To disable tests that require internet access, also give
-DLWS_CTEST_INTERNET_AVAILABLE=0
Remove travis and appveyor scripts on master.
Remove travis and appveyor decals on README.md.
Trying to use a remote pool is very variable with CI, the builder can
force a local ntpd this way cleanly.
When enabled all the test apps use ntpclient, so this lets us tell them all to
go to the local ntpd in one hit.
LWS builds OK on iOS SDK as unix type plat, except it
doesn't have net/route.h.
Detect we're building on iOS at CMake and export a
preprocessor define we can use to snip out the missing
include.
The mbedtls openssl wrapper wants to use exports from mbedtls' net_sockets.c,
but this is only supposed to work on *nix and windows. Typically people
are using mbedtls on RTOS type platforms and to use it, net_sockets.c
needs some hacking.
Try to avoid that situation by porting the two exports we need into the
lws plat code and call from the wrapper.
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.
From eventfd man page:
Applications can use an eventfd file descriptor instead of a pipe (see
pipe(2)) in all cases where a pipe is used simply to signal events.
The kernel overhead of an eventfd file descriptor is much lower than
that of a pipe, and only one file descriptor is required
(versus the two required for a pipe).
Add selectable event lib support to minimal-http-client-multi and
clean up context destroy flow so we can use lws_destroy_context() from
inside the callback to indicate we want to end the event loop, without
using the traditional "interrupted" flag and in a way that works no
matter which event loop backend is being used.
There are some minor public api type improvements rather than cast everywhere
inside lws and user code to work around them... these changed from int to
size_t
- lws_buflist_use_segment() return
- lws_tokenize_t .len and .token_len
- lws_tokenize_cstr() length
- lws_get_peer_simple() namelen
- lws_get_peer_simple_fd() namelen, int fd -> lws_sockfd_type fd
- lws_write_numeric_address() len
- lws_sa46_write_numeric_address() len
These changes are typically a NOP for user code
Pre-sul, checking for interval to next pending scheduled event was expensive and
iterative, so the service avoided it if the wait was already 0.
With sul though, the internal "check" function also services ripe events and
removes them, and finding the interval to the next one is really cheap.
Rename the "check" function to __lws_sul_service_ripe() to make it clear it's
not just about returning the interval to the next pending one. And call it
regardless of if we already decided we are not going to wait in the poll.
After https://github.com/warmcat/libwebsockets/pull/1745
As it is, if time_t is 32-bit on the platform it might lead to
arithmetic overflow, so force it to lws_usec_t (uint64_t) even
though it works OK here on x86_64.
Add a minimal example aimed at testing the wsi hrtimer stability
consistently across platforms.
Add and disable by default hrtimer dump code (this is too expensive
and specific to internal testing to leave in for debug mode even if
it's not printed). If you hack it enabled, it will dump the sul
list for the pt and assert if the list is disordered.
Generic lws_system IPv4 DHCP client
- netif and route control via lib/plat apis
- linux plat pieces implemented
- Uses raw ip socket for UDP broadcast and rx
- security-aware
- usual stuff plus up to 4 x dns server
If it's enabled for build, it holds the system
state at DHCP until at least one registered interface
has acquired a set of IP / mask / router / DNS server
It uses PF_PACKET which is Linux-only atm. But those
areas are isolated into plat code.
TODOs
- lease timing and reacquire
- plat pieces for other than Linux
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.
There's no longer any reason to come out of sleep for periodic service
which has been eliminated by lws_sul.
With event libs, there is no opportunity to do it anyway since their
event loop is atomic and makes callbacks and sleeps until it is stopped.
But some users are relying on the old poll() service loop as
glue that's difficult to replace. So for now help that happen by
accepting the timeout_ms of -1 as meaning sample poll and service
what's there without any wait.
Remove LWS_LATENCY.
Add the option LWS_WITH_DETAILED_LATENCY, allowing lws to collect very detailed
information on every read and write, and allow the user code to provide
a callback to process events.
This adds the option to have lws do its own dns resolution on
the event loop, without blocking. Existing implementations get
the name resolution done by the libc, which is blocking. In
the case you are opening client connections but need to carefully
manage latency, another connection opening and doing the name
resolution becomes a big problem.
Currently it supports
- ipv4 / A records
- ipv6 / AAAA records
- ipv4-over-ipv6 ::ffff:1.2.3.4 A record promotion for ipv6
- only one server supported over UDP :53
- nameserver discovery on linux, windows, freertos
It also has some nice advantages
- lws-style paranoid response parsing
- random unique tid generation to increase difficulty of poisoning
- it's really integrated with the lws event loop, it does not spawn
threads or use the libc resolver, and of course no blocking at all
- platform-specific server address capturing (from /etc/resolv.conf
on linux, windows apis on windows)
- it has LRU caching
- piggybacking (multiple requests before the first completes go on
a list on the first request, not spawn multiple requests)
- observes TTL in cache
- TTL and timeout use lws_sul timers on the event loop
- ipv6 pieces only built if cmake LWS_IPV6 enabled
