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.
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).
Generic sessions has been overdue some love to align it with
the progress in the rest of lws.
1) Strict Content Security Policy
2) http2 compatibility
3) fixes and additions for use in a separate process via unix domain socket
4) work on ws and http proxying in lws
5) add minimal example
RFC7692 states that control messages should not be compressed so there is no
need to inflate these messages.
There can be a bug if a control message is received while processing a
compressed message since lws relies on the RSV bit of the first message to
inflate the rx buffer or not.
Here we also check the opcode to only inflate a message if it is a data message.
Fixes: #1470
Various kinds of input stashing were replaced with a single buflist before
v3.0... this patch replaces the partial send arrangements with its own buflist
in the same way.
Buflists as the name says are growable lists of allocations in a linked-list
that take care of book-keeping what's added and removed (even if what is
removed is less than the current buffer on the list).
The immediate result is that we no longer have to freak out if we had a partial
buffered and new output is coming... we can just pile it on the end of the
buflist and keep draining the front of it.
Likewise we no longer need to be rabid about reporting multiple attempts to
send stuff without going back to the event loop, although not doing that
will introduce inefficiencies we don't have to term it "illegal" any more.
Since buflists have proven reliable on the input side and the logic for dealing
with truncated "non-network events" was already there this internal-only change
should be relatively self-contained.
This replaces the old test-app for echo with separate client and server
minimal versions.
The autobahn test script is made more autonomous and tests both
client and server.
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.
