rx flow control needs to handle the situation that it is draining from
a previous rx flow control period, and the user code reasserts rx flow
control partway through that.
The accounting for the used rx then boils down to only trimming the
rxflow buflist we were "replaying" to consume however much we managed
to deliver of that this time before the rx flow control came again.
"Normal" rx consumption is wrong in this case, since we accounted for
it entirely in the rxflow cache buflist.
The patch recognizes this situation, does the accounting in the cache
buflist, and then lies to the caller that there was no rx consumption
to be accounted for at his level.
- prioritize user-defined mimetypes over predefined server mimetypes.
- fix accessing memory out of string bounds.
- prefer case-insensitive comparison for extension matching.
- other minor fixes and improvements.
This is aimed at allowing a stride to optionally be
given for the parameter name array... this will allow
use of lws_struct metadata as the parameter name
array.
Also introduce the option to put all allocations in
an lwsac instead of via lws_mallocs.
Firefox sends HTTP requests with "Connection: keep-alive" header.
When LWS responds with 401 and WWW-Authenticate header, Firefox
doesn't show an authentication dialog until connection is closed.
Adding "Content-Length: 0" solves the problem.
Using a C compiler ignores non-existent functions, and tries to link them anyway.
The compiler optimizes `bzero(buf, 1)` to `movb $0x0,0xf(%esp)`, so bzero is
not called at all, and the linker succeeds.
Increase the buffer size to 100 to avoid this optimization.
If you're providing a unix socket service that will be proxied / served by another
process on the same machine, the unix fd permissions on the listening unix socket fd
have to be managed so only something running under the server credentials
can open the listening unix socket.
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.
If you just want a "file" in multipart, don't care about the length or
anything else, then you don't need any params tables and associated
allocations.
lws has been able to proxy h2 or h1 inbound connections to an
h1 onward connection for a while now. It's simple to use just
build with LWS_WITH_HTTP_PROXY and make a mount where the origin
is the onward connection details. Unix sockets can also be
used as the onward connection.
This patch extends the support to be able to also do the same for
inbound h2 or h1 ws upgrades to an h1 ws onward connection as well.
This allows you to offer completely different services in a
common URL space, including ones that connect back by ws / wss.
The callback flow is a bit more disruptive than doing the iteration
directly in your function. This helps by passing a user void *
into the callback set as an lws_dll[2]_foreach_safe() arg.
Until 1.1.1b OpenSSL didn't mind we were setting AAD for AES GCM
using EVP_EncryptUpdate() for both encrypt and decrypt... but now
it noticed and the bug is fixed.
If you have multiple vhosts with client contexts enabled, under
OpenSSL each one brings in the system cert bundle.
On libwebsockets.org, there are many vhosts and the waste adds up
to about 9MB of heap.
This patch makes a sha256 from the client context configuration, and
if a suitable client context already exists on another vhost, bumps
a refcount and reuses the client context.
In the case client contexts are configured differently, a new one
is created (and is available for reuse as well).
