Also prioritize LD_LIBRARY_PATH check for plugins first
Iterate through paths in LD_LIBRARY_PATH in order
Warn on failed plugins init but continue protocol init
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.
A few different places want to create wsis and basically repeat their
own versions of the flow. Let's unify it into one helper in wsi.c
Also require the context lock held (this only impacts LWS_MAX_SMP > 1)
RFC6724 defines an ipv6-centric DNS result sorting algorithm, that
takes route and source address route information for the results
given by the DNS resolution, and sorts them in order of preferability,
which defines the order they should be tried in.
If LWS_WITH_NETLINK, then lws takes care about collecting and monitoring
the interface, route and source address information, and uses it to
perform the RFC6724 sorting to re-sort the DNS before trying to make
the connections.
Event lib support as it has been isn't scaling well, at the low level
libevent and libev headers have a namespace conflict so they can't
both be built into the same image, and at the distro level, binding
all the event libs to libwebsockets.so makes a bloaty situation for
packaging, lws will drag in all the event libs every time.
This patch implements the plan discussed here
https://github.com/warmcat/libwebsockets/issues/1980
and refactors the event lib support so they are built into isolated
plugins and bound at runtime according to what the application says
it wants to use. The event lib plugins can be packaged individually
so that only the needed sets of support are installed (perhaps none
of them if the user code is OK with the default poll() loop). And
dependent user code can mark the specific event loop plugin package
as required so pieces are added as needed.
The eventlib-foreign example is also refactored to build the selected
lib support isolated.
A readme is added detailing the changes and how to use them.

Move the common plugin scanning dir stuff to be based on lws_dir, which
already builds for windows. Previously this was done via dirent for unix
and libuv for windows.
Reduce the dl plat stuff to just wrap instantiation and destruction of
dynlibs, establish common code in lib/misc/dir.c for plugin scanning
itself.
Migrate the libuv windows dl stuff to windows-plugins.c, so that he's
available even if later libuv loop support becomes and event lib plugin.
Remove the existing api exports scheme for plugins, just export a const struct
now which has a fixed header type but then whatever you want afterwards depending
on the class / purpose of the plugin. Place a "class" string in the header so
there can be different kinds of plugins implying different types exported.
Make the plugin apis public and add support for filter by class string, and
per instantation / destruction callbacks so the subclassed header type can
do its thing for the plugin class. The user provides a linked-list base
for his class of plugins, so he can manage them completely separately and
in user code / user export types.
Rip out some last hangers-on from generic sessions / tables.
This is all aimed at making the plugins support general enough so it can
provide event lib plugins later.
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.
Allow selection of Unix Domain Sockets on windows since it is supported
for the last couple of years on windows 10

... if only they could add a full set of posix pieces to go with it
(and abstract namespace UDS which doesn't work apparently) so that
the parts dealing with uid / gid don't have to be disabled.
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
POSIX connect() specifies it will signal POLLOUT available when
the connect result is available. But windows has some non-posix
nonsense.
Improve the plat support to simulate the missing POLLOUT.
Add a member to the vh init struct allowing control of the overall
connection wait introduced in an earlier patch. Set it to 20s
by default.
The timeout_secs member controls the individual DNS result
connect timeout and is reduced to 5s by default.
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.
UDP: call to recv() in there for unknown reasons was trashing udp
delays: pending tls (where data is buffered and no pending POLLIN)
was not reflected in forcing the wait to 0 properly.
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.
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
