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
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
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.
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
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
Adapt service loops and event libs to use microsecond waits
internally, for hrtimer and sequencer. Reduce granularity
according to platform / event lib wait.
Add a helper so there's a single place to extend it.
Otherwise it often forgets to inform about event loop interrupts. Add a flag to the per thread context, set it in the signal function, then check / reset it in the service method.
Up until now if you wanted to drop privs, a numeric uid and gid had to be
given in info to control post-init permissions... this adds info.username
and info.groupname where you can do the same using user and group names.
The internal plat helper lws_plat_drop_app_privileges() is updated to directly use
context instead of info both ways it can be called, and to be able to return fatal
errors.
All failures to lookup non-0 or -1 uid or gid names from uid, or to look up
uid or gid from username or groupnames given, get an err message and fatal exit.
The retry stuff for bind failures is actually aimed at the scenarios the interface
either doesn't exist yet, or is not configured enough (having an IP) to be bindable yet.
This patch treats EADDRINUSE as fatal at vhost init.
