Adds a reference to the libwebsockets context to the OpenSSL context
used by the client vhost. This allows SSL info callbacks to work
correctly for clients, like it currently does for servers.

In case of an SSL_ERROR_SSL in lws_tls_client_connect, the
lws_ssl_get_error call was calling lws_tls_err_describe_clear which
cleared the OpenSSL error from the stack. Thus, the tls.err_helper
attribute was set to the default value from ERR_error_string_n, masking
the actual OpenSSL error message from client code.
Subject: [PATCH] remove LWS_CALLBACK_OPENSSL_CONTEXT_REQUIRES_PRIVATE_KEY
callback
When a certificate for a TLS connection is provided, but a private
key is not, the SSL_CTX initialization exits early, before the
CONTEXT_REQUIRES_PRIVATE_KEY callback can be issued.
Remove the now obsolete callback and update the vhost
field description to state that the LOAD_EXTRA_SERVER_VERIFY_CERTS
callback should be used instead.
This patch adapts the recent change about serializing the number of
simultaneous tls handshakes allowed to 1, so you can set the number in the
context creation info, and the accounting for it is handled by counters
same as the overally tls restriction.
The name of the context info var to control it changes to simultaneous_ssl_handshake_restriction
which is now a count, the default 0 means no limit.
The count rejects tls connection attempts when the tls borrow is attempted,
and separately hands back the hs borrow from the tls borrow when the
connection attempt fails or succeeds.
Adapt mbedtls support for compatibility with v3, while maintaining
compatibility with v2.
Notice v3 has removed the ability to encrypt with pubkey and
decrypt with privkey. Openssl still has it, atm with v3 these
fall back to encrypt with privkey and decrypt with pubkey.

lws_tls_restrict_borrow() returns error when tls restriction limit is
reached. However lws_ssl_close() still calls lws_tls_restrict_return()
to decrease simultaneous_ssl. Thus LWS accepts more than allowed ssl
links, making simultaneous_ssl_restriction useless.
Fix it by tracking lws_tls_restrict_borrow() return value and only
calling lws_tls_restrict_return() if lws_tls_restrict_borrow() is
successful.
Add support for dynamically determining the CAs needed to validate server
certificates. This allows you to avoid instantiating > 120 X.509 trusted
CA certs and have them take up heap the whole time.
Works for both openssl and mbedtls.
See READMEs/README.jit-trust.md for the documentation
You likely want the next patch for http redirect enhancements as well.
We have access to a simplified report of the problem name for tls
validation inside the validation cb, let's bring it out and
use it for OpenSSL CCE reporting.
There are a few build options that are trying to keep and report
various statistics
- DETAILED_LATENCY
- SERVER_STATUS
- WITH_STATS
remove all those and establish a generic rplacement, lws_metrics.
lws_metrics makes its stats available via an lws_system ops function
pointer that the user code can set.
Openmetrics export is supported, for, eg, prometheus scraping.
openssl v3-alpha11 has marked EC_KEY pieces as deprecated... we use it in
LWS_WITH_GENCRYPTO but the related RSA etc pieces were already deprecated
for that. We use EC_KEY pieces in vhost init...
The apis are not removed but deprecated, we should have a way to keep
trucking, but as it is the deprecation warning is promoted to an error.
Let's add LWS_SUPPRESS_DEPRECATED_API_WARNINGS option off by default. If
enabled at cmake, external deprecated api warnings are suppressed. This
gives a general workaround for now for opensslv3.
In addition, even if you don't do that, let's notice we are on openssl v3
and don't build the EC curve selection stuff, I don't think anyone is
actually using it anyway.
Update libressl rules for options api type,
add some docs to build, use CHECK_SYMBOL_EXISTS since
CHECK_FUNCTION_EXISTS is fooled by the conditionals
in the headers
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.
This is complicated by the fact extern on a function declaration implies
visibility... we have to make LWS_EXTERN empty when building static.
And, setting target_compile_definitions() doesn't work inside macros,
so it has to be set explicitly for the plugins.
Checking the symbol status needs nm -C -D as per
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37934388/symbol-visibility-not-working-as-expected
after this patch, libwebsockets.a shows no symbols when checked like that and
the static-linked minimal examples only show -U for their other dynamic
imports.
In a handful of cases we use LWS_EXTERN on extern data declarations,
those then need to change to explicit extern.
