Secure Streams is an optional layer on top of lws that separates policy
like endpoint selection and tls cert validation into a device JSON
policy document.
Code that wants to open a client connection just specifies a streamtype name,
and no longer deals with details like the endpoint, the protocol (!) or anything
else other than payloads and optionally generic metadata; the JSON policy
contains all the details for each streamtype. h1, h2, ws and mqtt client
connections are supported.
Logical secure streams outlive any particular connection and supports "nailed-up"
connectivity regardless of underlying connection stability.
Adds client support for MQTT QoS0 and QoS1, compatible with AWS IoT
Supports stream binding where independent client connections to the
same endpoint can mux on a single tcp + tls connection with topic
routing managed internally.
Headers related to ws or h2 are now elided if the ws or h2 role
is not enabled for build. In addition, a new build-time option
LWS_WITH_HTTP_UNCOMMON_HEADERS on by default allows removal of
less-common http headers to shrink the parser footprint.
Minilex is adapted to produce 8 different versions of the lex
table, chosen at build-time according to which headers are
included in the build.
If you don't need the unusual headers, or aren't using h2 or ws,
this chops down the size of the ah and the rodata needed to hold
the parsing table from 87 strings / pointers to 49, and the
parsing table from 1177 to 696 bytes.
This adds support for POST in both h1 and h2 queues / stream binding.
The previous queueing tried to keep the "leader" wsi who made the
actual connection around and have it act on the transaction queue
tail if it had done its own thing.
This refactors it so instead, who is the "leader" moves down the
queue and the queued guys inherit the fd, SSL * and queue from the
old leader as they take over.
This lets them operate in their own wsi identity directly and gets
rid of all the "effective wsi" checks, which was applied incompletely
and getting out of hand considering the separate lws_mux checks for
h2 and other muxed protocols alongside it.
This change also allows one wsi at a time to own the transaction for
POST. --post is added as an option to lws-minimal-http-client-multi
and 6 extra selftests with POST on h1/h2, pipelined or not and
staggered or not are added to the CI.
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.
The %.*s is very handy to print strings where you have a length, but
there is no NUL termination. It's quite widely supported but at least
one vendor RTOS toolchain doesn't have it.
Since there aren't that many uses of it yet, audit all uses and
convert to a new helper lws_strnncpy() which uses the smaller of
two lengths.
