Several new ops are planned for tls... so better to bite the bullet and
clean it out to the same level as roles + event-libs first.
Also adds a new travis target "mbedtls" and all the tests except
autobahn against mbedtls build.
You can build lws without support for ws, with -DLWS_ROLE_WS=0.
This is thanks to the role ops isolating all the ws-specific business
in the ws role.
Also retire more test apps replaced by minmal-examples.
This replaces the old test-app for echo with separate client and server
minimal versions.
The autobahn test script is made more autonomous and tests both
client and server.
1) Remove the whole ah rxbuf and put things on to the wsi buflist
This eliminates the whole detachability thing based on ah rxbuf
state... ah can always be detached.
2) Remove h2 scratch and put it on the wsi buflist
3) Remove preamble_rx and use the wsi buflist
This was used in the case adopted sockets had already been read.
Basically there are now only three forced service scenarios
- something in buflist (and not in state LRS_DEFERRING_ACTION)
- tls layer has buffered rx
- extension has buffered rx
This is a net removal of around 400 lines of special-casing.
For h1 / ws, a combination of removing POLLIN wait and
stashing any unused rx lets us immediately respond to
rx flow control requests in a simple and effective way,
because the tcp socket is the stream.
But for muxed protocols like h2, that technique cannot
be used because we cannot silence the whole bundle of
streams because one can't handle any more rx dynamically.
There are control frames and content for other streams
serialized inbetween the flow controlled stream content.
We have no choice but to read to so we can see the other
things. Therefore for muxed protocols like h2 and spdy,
rx flow control boils down to tx credit manipulation
on individual streams to staunch the flow at the peer.
However that requires a round trip to take effect, any
transmitted packets that were in flight before the tx credit
reduction arrives at the remote peer are still going to come
and have to be dealt with by adding them to the stash.
This patch introduces lws_buflist scatter-gather type
buffer management for rxflow handling, so we can append
buffer segments in a linked-list to handle whatever rx
is unavoidably in flight on a stream that is trying to
assert rx flow control.
Since new roles may be incompatible with http, add support for
alpn names at the role struct, automatic generation of the
default list of alpn names that servers advertise, and the
ability to override the used alpn names per-vhost and per-
client connection.
This not only lets you modulate visibility or use of h2,
but also enables vhosts that only offer non-http roles,
as well as restricting http role vhosts to only alpn
identifiers related to http roles.
This completely removes the loop self-running stuff.
Static allocations (uv_idle, timers etc) are referenced-counted in the context
same as the wsi are. When lws wants to close, he first closes all his wsi, then
when that is completed in the uv close callbacks, he closes all of his static
uv handles. When that is also completed in the uv callbacks, he stops the loop
so the lws context can destroy and exit.
Any direct libuv allocations in protocol handlers must participate in the
reference counting. Two new apis are provided
- lws_libuv_static_refcount_add(handle, context) to mark the handle with
a pointer to the context and increment the global uv object counter
- lws_libuv_static_refcount_del() which should be used as the close callback
for your own libuv objects declared in the protocol scope.
Previously down network interfaces without an IPv4 address are
removed from the posix api that lists network interfaces.
That means if you bound a vhost listen socket to a particular
interface, it will fail at startup time.
This patch adds these vhosts to a list, starts the vhost without
a listen socket, and checks to see if the vhost's network interface
has appeared while the rest of lws is running.
If it appears, the listen socket is opened on the network interface
and the vhost becomes reachable.
This is just an internal mass change of LWS_NO_EXTENSIONS to
LWS_WITHOUT_EXTENSIONS to match the public name and eliminate
all instances of LWS_NO_EXTENSIONS.
This allows you to set a 404 handler URL on a vhost.
The necessary user code looks like...
info.error_document_404 = "/404.html";
... at vhost-creation time.
In the existing lws_return_http_status() api, if it sees
the vhost has an "error_document_404" path set and that
we are trying to report a 404, it changes the action
instead to a redirect to the error_document_404 path.
The redirect target is returned using 404 status code.
If the redirect target doesn't exist, then it falls back
to just reporting the simple canned 404.
Re-use wsi->preamble_rx to also hold leftover rx after dealing with POST
body. Ensure ah->rx is always big enough to cope with what may have
been read into the pt->serv_buf.
Update the check for forced needed to also accept non-NULL wsi->preamble
as well as ah->rxpos != ah->rxlen as indication forced needed.
Disable autoservice on ah reset during transaction completed... it may
close the wsi underneath us when it sees and processes the pending
wsi->preamble_rx recursively otherwise.
ESP32 module price is now within range of 8266 price.
ESP32 capability and OS support is hugely better than 8266,
we can support mbedtls tls, http/2 etc with ESP32.
I'm no longer testing on ESP8266... there's no more
user traffic... it's time to go.
This provides platform-independent support for time discontiguities.
On embedded without battery RTC, commonly we only get time after
NTP completes. This makes the cert checking happen when we have
a reasonable time and introduces lws_compare_time_t() to correctly
compare time_t s that may sit on either side of a time discontiguity.
