There are a few automatic things that look for streamtypes that may or
may not exist now
- captive_portal_detect
- fetch_policy
- api_amazon_com_auth
logging them as notice every startup is pretty intrusive, change to info.
For general OpenSSL case, we leave connection validity to system trust
store bundle to decide; even for mbedtls it may have been passed a
bundle externally and we don't want to have to list the x.509 stack
explicitly for a server we don't have any control over.
Instead of erroring out, allow the case no trust store is specified,
just use vhost[0] and let the system trust store decide if it likes
the server's cert or not.
No ABI change.
This leads to problems at the moment with sticky mux.requested_POLLOUT
causing writeable to not be sent.
Remove it and always set writeable on parents for now.
When lws_write as many bytes as user can until function returns not all sent,
the next user`s lws_write call will write wrong frame to the other end. This
will cause connection be close by the other side.
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.
Continue with lws_struct, add sqlite support for one
level of lws_dll2_t lists of structs serialization and
deserialization, plus the matching api-test.
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.
Surprisingly -fdata-sections -ffunction-sections does not remove any string literals and __func__
implicit .rodata generated by the removed function's compilation.
That means potentially considerable deadweight is in the image even if the function is removed
at linktime.
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
From eventfd man page:
Applications can use an eventfd file descriptor instead of a pipe (see
pipe(2)) in all cases where a pipe is used simply to signal events.
The kernel overhead of an eventfd file descriptor is much lower than
that of a pipe, and only one file descriptor is required
(versus the two required for a pipe).
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.
