By default this doesn't change any existing logging behaviour at all.
But it allows you to define cmake options to force or force-disable the
build of individual log levels using new cmake option bitfields
LWS_LOGGING_BITFIELD_SET and LWS_LOGGING_BITFIELD_CLEAR.
Eg, -DLWS_LOGGING_BITFIELD_SET="(LLL_INFO)" can force INFO log level
built even in release mode. -DLWS_LOGGING_BITFIELD_CLEAR="(LLL_NOTICE)"
will likewise remove NOTICE logging from the build regardless of
DEBUG or RELEASE mode.
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.
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 provides support to build lws using the linkit 7697 public SDK
from here https://docs.labs.mediatek.com/resource/mt7687-mt7697/en/downloads
This toolchain has some challenges, its int32_t / uint32_t are long,
so assumptions about format strings for those being %u / %d / %x all
break. This fixes all the cases for the features enabled by the
default cmake settings.
There are some minor public api type improvements rather than cast everywhere
inside lws and user code to work around them... these changed from int to
size_t
- lws_buflist_use_segment() return
- lws_tokenize_t .len and .token_len
- lws_tokenize_cstr() length
- lws_get_peer_simple() namelen
- lws_get_peer_simple_fd() namelen, int fd -> lws_sockfd_type fd
- lws_write_numeric_address() len
- lws_sa46_write_numeric_address() len
These changes are typically a NOP for user code
In the case code is composed into a single process, but it isn't monolithic in the
sense it's made up of modular "applications" that are written separate projects,
provide a way for the "applications" to request a callback from the lws event loop
thread context safely.
From the callback the applications can set up their operations on the lws event
loop and drop their own thread.
Since it requires system-specific locking to be threadsafe, provide a non-threadsafe
helper and then indirect the actual usage through a user-defined lws_system ops
function pointer that wraps the unsafe api with the system locking to make it safe.
This changes the approach of tx credit management to set the
initial stream tx credit window to zero. This is the only way
with RFC7540 to gain the ability to selectively precisely rx
flow control incoming streams.
At the time the headers are sent, a WINDOW_UPDATE is sent with
the initial tx credit towards us for that specific stream. By
default, this acts as before with a 256KB window added for both
the stream and the nwsi, and additional window management sent
as stuff is received.
It's now also possible to set a member in the client info
struct and a new option LCCSCF_H2_MANUAL_RXFLOW to precisely
manage both the initial tx credit for a specific stream and
the ongoing rate limit by meting out further tx credit
manually.
Add another minimal example http-client-h2-rxflow demonstrating how
to force a connection's peer's initial budget to transmit to us
and control it during the connection lifetime to restrict the amount
of incoming data we have to buffer.
Now the generic lws_system blobs can cover client certs + key, let's
add support for applying one of the blob sets to a specific client
connection (rather than doing it via the vhost).
Remove the auth lws_system stuff and redo it using generic blobs
with separate namespaces. Support pointing to already-in-memory
blobs without using heap as well as multi-fragment appened blobs
eg, parsed out of JSON chunk by chunk and chained in heap.
Support auth the new way, along with client cert + key in DER
namespaces.
Normally these apis are wrapped by the other public exports, but in the case
your code wants to use lws_sul standalone and may or may not be linked to lws
itself, the internal api level is more suited.
This teaches http client stuff how to handle 303 redirects... these
can happen after POST where the server side wants you to come back with
a GET to the Location: mentioned.
lws client will follow the redirect and force GET, this works for both
h1 and h2. Client protocol handler has to act differently if it finds
it is connecting for the initial POST or the subsequent GET, it can
find out which by checking a new api lws_http_is_redirected_to_get(wsi)
which returns nonzero if in GET mode.
Minimal example for server form-post has a new --303 switch to enable
this behaviour there and the client post example has additions to
check lws_http_is_redirected_to_get().
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.

Adding the final CRLF is a NOP at JSON level, but can disrupt hashing the
JSON if it isn't expecting it.
Add flags to the jwk export so it can be controlled... operation remains
unchanged for old values 0 and 1 but a second flag can be OR-ed to control
issue of final CRLF.
As it is, if time_t is 32-bit on the platform it might lead to
arithmetic overflow, so force it to lws_usec_t (uint64_t) even
though it works OK here on x86_64.
Add a minimal example aimed at testing the wsi hrtimer stability
consistently across platforms.
Add and disable by default hrtimer dump code (this is too expensive
and specific to internal testing to leave in for debug mode even if
it's not printed). If you hack it enabled, it will dump the sul
list for the pt and assert if the list is disordered.
Optimizations for memory-tight systems.
Check all previous gaps first for any usage, so gaps we created when
faced with perhaps a relatively large allocation that left a lot of
the last chunk on the table can be backfilled with smaller things as
it goes on.
Separate the members that only live in the head object out of the
buffer management object, reducing the cost of new chunks. Allocate
the head object members as the first thing in the first chunk, and
adjust all the code to look there for them.
Add lwsac helper api to allow user code to perform constant string folding
easily within an lwsac. After isolating a string or blob that it wants to store in
the lwsac and point to, it can check if the string or blob already exists earlier
in the lwsac first, and if so just point to that without copying it in again.
For some formats with repeated strings like JSON, the saving can add up to
something useful.
