The various stream transitions for direct ss, SSPC, smd, and
different protocols are all handled in different code, let's
stop hoping for the best and add a state transition validation
function that is used everywhere we pass a state change to a
user callback, and knows what is valid for the user state()
callback to see next, given the last state it was shown.
Let's assert if lws manages to violate that so we can find
where the problem is and provide a stricter guarantee about
what user state handler will see, no matter if ss or sspc
or other cases.
To facilitate that, move the states to start from 1, where
0 indicates the state unset.
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.
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.
The vfork optimized spawn, stdxxx and terminal handling in the cgi
implementation is quite mature and sophisticated, and useful for
other things unrelated to cgi. Break it out into its own public
api under LWS_WITH_SPAWN, off by default.
Expand it so the parent wsi is optional, and the role and protocol
bindings for stdxxx pipes can be set. Allow optional sul timeout
and external lws_dll2 owner for extant children.
Remove inline style from minimal http-server-cgi
This should be a NOP for h2 support and only affects internal
apis. But it lets us reuse the working and reliable h2 mux
arrangements directly in other protocols later, and share code
so building for h2 + new protocols can take advantage of common
mux child handling struct and code.
Break out common mux handling struct into its own type.
Convert all uses of members that used to be in wsi->h2 to wsi->mux
Audit all references to the members and break out generic helpers
for anything that is useful for other mux-capable protocols to
reuse wsi->mux related features.
lws_dll2 removes the downsides of lws_dll and adds new features like a
running member count and explicit owner type... it's cleaner and more
robust (eg, nodes know their owner, so they can casually switch between
list owners and remove themselves without the code knowing the owner).
This deprecates lws_dll, but since it's public it allows it to continue
to be built for 4.0 release if you give cmake LWS_WITH_DEPRECATED_LWS_DLL.
All remaining internal users of lws_dll are migrated to lws_dll2.
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
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.
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.
