1) This makes lwsws run a parent process with the original permissions.
But this process is only able to respond to SIGHUP, it doesn't do anything
else.
2) You can send this parent process a SIGHUP now to cause it to
- close listening sockets in existing lwsws processes
- mark those processes as to exit when the number of active connections
on the falls to zero
- spawn a fresh child process from scratch, using latest configuration
file content, latest plugins, etc. It can now reopen listening sockets
if it chooses to, or open different listen ports or whatever.
Notes:
1) lws_context_destroy() has been split into two pieces... the reason for
the split is the first part closes the per-vhost protocols, but since
they may have created libuv objects in the per-vhost protocol storage,
these cannot be freed until after the loop has been run.
That's the purpose of the second part of the context destruction,
lws_context_destroy2().
For compatibility, if you are not using libuv, the first part calls the
second part. However if you are using libuv, you must now call the
second part from your own main.c after the first part.
RFC2616 only says that any HTTP/1.1 message containing an entity-body
SHOULD include a Content-Type header field defining the media type of
that body.
RFC2119 defines SHOULD as: This word mean that there may exist valid
reasons in particular circumstances to ignore a particular item, but
the full implications must be understood and carefully weighed before
choosing a different course.
AG: this isn't an oversight, it's paranoia about sending out /etc/passwd
or /etc/shadow accidentally.
I agree it should be allowed if people really want to override it. But
the default should remain like it is I think.
I adapted the patch to allow the extra mimetype "*": "" to be declared on
a mount, as a wildcard match that serves the file without a Content-Type.
This adds a new member to the context creation info struct "ws_ping_pong_interval".
If nonzero, it sets the number of seconds that established ws connections are
allowed to be idle before a PING is forced to be sent. If zero (the default) then
tracking of idle connection is disabled for backwards compatibility.
Timeouts cover both the period between decision to send the ping and it being
sent (because it needs the socket to become writeable), and the period between
the ping being sent and the PONG coming back.
INFO debug logs are issues when the timeout stuff is operating.
You can test the server side by running the test server hacked to set ws_ping_pong_interval
and debug log mask of 15. Both the mirror protocol and the server-status protocol are
idle if nothing is happening and will trigger the PING / PONG testing. (You can also
test using lwsws and /etc/lwsws/conf with "ws-pingpong-secs": "20" in the global section)
For client, run the test client with -n -P 20 for 20s interval. -n stops the test client
writing using the mirror protocol, so it will be idle and trigger the PING / PONGs.
The timeout interval may be up to +10s late, as lws checks for affected connections every
10s.
Server ipv6 support disable is now controlled by vhost->options rather
than context->options, allowing it to be set per-vhost.

It's going to be much easier to transition to lwsws
if the example config exactly matches what used to be
seen from the default test server.
# mkdir -p /etc/lwsws/conf.d /var/log/lwsws
# cp ./lwsws/etc-lwsws-conf-EXAMPLE /etc/lwsws/conf
# cp ./lwsws/etc-lwsws-conf.d-localhost-EXAMPLE /etc/lwsws/conf.d/test-server
# sudo lwsws

Also add lwsws "enable-client-ssl": "1" vhost option to match.
Client cert iclient ssl is not supported in lwsws, if someone wants it, it can be added.

If OOT lws plugins will be packaged as separate projects,
they're going to want to install their plugins somewhere
that makes sense for the package instead of one big lws
plugin dir.
This patch changes info to have a const char ** to a NULL
terminated array of directories it should search for
plugins. lwsws knows about this and you can add to the
dir array using config fragments like
{
"global": {
"plugin-dir": "/usr/local/share/coherent-timeline/plugins"
}
}
if the config fragment in /etc/lwsws/conf.d/ is also managed by the
package with the plugin, it can very cleanly add and remove itself
from lwsws based on package install status.

This allows mounts to define the caching policy of the files inside them.
Support is added in lwsws for controlling it from the config files.
The api for serializing a mount struct opaquely is removed and lws_http_mount struct
made public... it was getting out of control trying to hide the options.

This adds the ability to store apache-compatible logs to a file given at
vhost-creation time.
lwsws conf can set it per-vhost using "access-log": "<filepath>"
The feature defaults to disabled at cmake, it can be set independently but
LWS_WITH_LWSWS set it on.

This adds support for dynamically loaded plugins at runtime, which
can expose their own protocols or extensions transparently.
With these changes lwsws defaults to OFF in cmake, and if enabled it
automatically enables plugins and libuv support.

This makes a start on the LibWebSockets WebServer.
The app cmake build support and JSON config parsing are implemented and
the app can start, create the vhosts, listen and serve file:// mounts on
them.
