Establish a new distributed CMake architecture with CMake code related to
a source directory moving to be in the subdir in its own CMakeLists.txt.
In particular, there's now one in ./lib which calls through to ones
further down the directory tree like ./lib/plat/xxx, ./lib/roles/xxx etc.
This cuts the main CMakelists.txt from 98KB -> 33KB, about a 66% reduction,
and it's much easier to maintain sub-CMakeLists.txt that are in the same
directory as the sources they manage, and conceal all the details that that
level.
Child CMakelists.txt become responsible for:
- include_directories() definition (this is not supported by CMake
directly, it passes it back up via PARENT_SCOPE vars in helper
macros)
- Addition child CMakeLists.txt inclusion, for example toplevel ->
role -> role subdir
- Source file addition to the build
- Dependent library path resolution... this is now a private thing
in the child CMakeLists.txt, it just passes back any adaptations
to include_directories() and the LIB_LIST without filling the
parent namespace with the details
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.
Add support for external pthreads lib on windows and some docs about how to do.
It can build with LWS_WITH_THREADPOOL and LWS_WITH_MINIMAL_EXAMPLES including the
pthreads-dependent ones without warnings or errors on windows platform as well with this.
pthreads_t can be anything, including a struct - not a pointer-to-a-struct
but the struct itself. These can't be cast to a void * for printing as they can
on linux, where the base type is a pointer.
Let's fix all the usage of those to determine their own thread index in terms
of the meaning to the program rather than as a tid.
Fix pthreads detection in the minimal examples and add it where needed.
Fix unistd.h include to be conditional on not WIN32
With this, -DLWS_WITH_MINIMAL_EXAMPLES=1 is happy and warning-free
on windows.
Old certs were getting near the end of their life and we switched the
server to use letsencrypt. The root and intermediate needed for the
mbedtls case changed accordingly
wsi timeout, wsi hrtimer, sequencer timeout and vh-protocol timer
all now participate on a single sorted us list.
The whole idea of polling wakes is thrown out, poll waits ignore the
timeout field and always use infinite timeouts.
Introduce a public api that can schedule its own callback from the event
loop with us resolution (usually ms is all the platform can do).
Upgrade timeouts and sequencer timeouts to also be able to use us resolution.
Introduce a prepared fakewsi in the pt, so we don't have to allocate
one on the heap when we need it.
Directly handle vh-protocol timer if LWS_MAX_SMP == 1
There are quite a few linked-lists of things that want events after
some period. This introduces a type binding an lws_dll2 for the
list and a lws_usec_t for the duration.
The wsi timeouts, the hrtimer and the sequencer timeouts are converted
to use these, also in the common event wait calculation.
Travis seems to be restricting the number of outgoing connections
or the rate of them... we have been using 10 concurrent and 100 connections

Reduce to 3 concurrent / 15 see if it helps travis get over the hump
The logic in the loops for insertion and deletion from the
mini, forced to non ulimit max fds in the pt mode was not
quite right.
It showed up in hard to reproduce problem with the ws client
spam test that uses the mini mode, on travis. This should
fix the root cause.
An lws context usually contains a processwide fd -> wsi lookup table.
This allows any possible fd returned by a *nix type OS to be immediately
converted to a wsi just by indexing an array of struct lws * the size of
the highest possible fd, as found by ulimit -n or similar.
This works modestly for Linux type systems where the default ulimit -n for
a process is 1024, it means a 4KB or 8KB lookup table for 32-bit or
64-bit systems.
However in the case your lws usage is much simpler, like one outgoing
client connection and no serving, this represents increasing waste. It's
made much worse if the system has a much larger default ulimit -n, eg 1M,
the table is occupying 4MB or 8MB, of which you will only use one.
Even so, because lws can't be sure the OS won't return a socket fd at any
number up to (ulimit -n - 1), it has to allocate the whole lookup table
at the moment.
This patch looks to see if the context creation info is setting
info->fd_limit_per_thread... if it leaves it at the default 0, then
everything is as it was before this patch. However if finds that
(info->fd_limit_per_thread * actual_number_of_service_threads) where
the default number of service threads is 1, is less than the fd limit
set by ulimit -n, lws switches to a slower lookup table scheme, which
only allocates the requested number of slots. Lookups happen then by
iterating the table and comparing rather than indexing the array
directly, which is obviously somewhat of a performance hit.
However in the case where you know lws will only have a very few wsi
maximum, this method can very usefully trade off speed to be able to
avoid the allocation sized by ulimit -n.
minimal examples for client that can make use of this are also modified
by this patch to use the smaller context allocations.

This doesn't change the intention or status of the CC0 files, they were
pure CC0 before (ie, public domain) and they are pure CC0 now. It just
gets rid of the (C) part at the top of the dedication which may be read
to be a bit contradictory since the purpose is to make it public domain.
