* Fix numerous spelling errrors.Garrett D'Amore2018-05-30
| | | | | | | These were found with the help of "aspell". Additionally, while reviewing the output from the spell checker, several content errors were noticed and fixed.

* fixes #477 Android NDK build configurationGarrett D'Amore2018-05-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | This enables the software to be built for Android, going back to at least Android SDK r15 (IceCreamSandwich) and at least up to SDK r27 (Oreo). Older versions of Android may work, but we have no way to build them to test. While here we have changed our CMake configuration to disable building tools or tests when we detect a cross-compile situation. Documentation for cross-compilation is updated as well.

* fixes #495 SEE ALSO should use [align=left]Garrett D'Amore2018-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | fixes #494 ERRORS section should use [horizontal] These changes address some basic formatting consistency things, and ultimately (when combined with other tooling changes that are not part of this repo) lead to vastly improved layout in the printed documentation. While here we removed trailing whitespace, and did certain other minor markup tweaks.
* fixes #484 crashes in websocket transportGarrett D'Amore2018-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fixes #490 posix_epdesc use-after-free bug fixes #489 Sanitizer based testing would help fixes #492 Numerous memory leaks found with sanitizer This introduces support for compiler-based sanitizers when using clang or gcc (and not on Windows). See NNG_SANITIZER for possible settings such as "thread" or "address". Furthermore, we have fixed the issues we found with both the thread and address sanitizers. We believe that the thread issues pointed to a low frequency use-after-free responsible for rare crashes in some of the tests. The tests generally have their timeouts doubled when running under a sanitizer, to account for the extra long times that the sanitizer can cause these to take. While here, we also changed the compat_ws test to avoid a particularly painful and time consuming DNS lookup, and we made the nngcat_unlimited test a bit more robust by waiting before sending traffic.
* fixes #419 Remove the "convey" meta testGarrett D'Amore2018-05-29
| | | | | The test itself is not sanitizer friendly, and we don't need to do this meta testing; convey already does it in it's own repo.
* fixes #488 pthread mutex initializer could be simplerGarrett D'Amore2018-05-29
| | | | | | | The fallback logic was unnecessarily complicated, and found to be somewhat data-racy; on modern systems initializing these things never fails, and on BSD systems that only occurs under extreme memory shortage.
* fixes #486 Revisit SOVERSION and VERSIONGarrett D'Amore2018-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fixes #485 Honor BUILD_SHARED_LIBS fixes #483 Don't expose private symbols in shared library fixes #481 Export CMake target This is a "large" commit involving changes that don't affect the code directly, but which have an impact on how we package and build our project. The most significant of these changes is that we now build only either a shared or a static library, depending on the setting of the BUILD_SHARED_LIBS option. We also suppress private symbols from being exposed when the underlying toolchain lets us do so. Minor updates to the way we version the ABI are used, and we now have a nice exported CMake project. To import this project in another, simply do find_package(nng) and you can add target_link_libraries(nng::nng) to your targets. CMake does the rest for you.

* fixes #474 websocket listen on ws://*:<x> failsGarrett D'Amore2018-05-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | fixes #464 Support NN_WS_MSG_TYPE option (compat) fixes #415 websocket does not honor recv maxsize This fixes a significant (and security) issue in websocket, where the code does not honor a maximum receive size. We've exposed new API (internal) to set the limit on the frame size, and we've changed the default to *unlimited* for that internal API. (But the default for SP sockets, which are the only consumers at present, is still 1MB just like all other SP transports.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fixes #468 TCP nodelay and keepalive should start usable fixes #467 NN_RCVMAXSZ option does not work (compat) fixes #465 Support NN_OPT_TCPNODELAY (compat) This is a rather larger change set than I'd like, but when adding support for legacy TCP keepalive, I found a number if issues using the legacy TCP test (which we are introducing with this commit.) This fixes the concerns that are relevant and addressible. We have elected not to try to support to local address binding at this time, and the IPv6 test case in the old code was wrong, so changes relevant to that are commented out. I've also updated the nng_compat manual page to reflect additional caveats that folks should be aware of, including the previously undocumented caveat around the NN_SNDBUF and NN_RCVBUF options.

* fixes #459 SUB should be more aggressive about discarding messagesGarrett D'Amore2018-05-21
| | | | | | | | | As part of this code fix, we needed to add filtering support to the msgq_tryput code path -- it turns out that code path was bypassing the filterfn altogether. Eventually we'll remove all this filtering stuff from the msgq code and replace it with inline filtering directly in sub.
* fixes #457 Create stub headers for compatibilityGarrett D'Amore2018-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | I actually made these real headers, not stubs While here I made some improvements to the nng_compat man page, to improve the language and also the presentation on some devices. (We were going nuts with the icons, instead, I've made a single new section, called Caveats, that lists a bunch of them.) This should not have any impact on binary compatibility.

* fixes #444 Stop looking for asciidoctor by defaultGarrett D'Amore2018-05-18
| | | | | | | | | | | While here, we have actually cleaned this up and enabled documentation building to work, for folks that want it. We default to off, because frankly folks should just use the website and be happy. If docs are enabled, then both man pages and html are generated. The man pages are noticably inferior (only so much you can do with 80 columns of text), but some people have indicated they prefer to be able to type "man" something.

* Fix incorrect cross reference.Garrett D'Amore2018-05-18
| | | | | | We have the constructors for sockets with filenames without the version, such as nng_req_open.3. This broken link was found when building the epub book.

* Update for 1.0.0-beta.1v1.0.0-beta.1Garrett D'Amore2018-05-18
| | | | | | We've added a new macro, NNG_RELEASE_SUFFIX. If this is not empty, then the release should be considered a pre-release, with no specific stability guarantees.
* fixes #451 task finalization could be better/smarter (resolver)Garrett D'Amore2018-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes nni_task_fini to always run synchronously, waiting for the task to finish before cleaning up. Much simpler code. Additionally, we've refactored the resolver code to avoid the use of taskqs, which added complexity and inefficiency. The approach of just allocating its own threads and a work queue to process them turns out to be vastly simpler, and actually reduces extra allocations and context switches. wip POSIX resolv threads. (Taskqs are just overhead and complexity here.) Windows resolver changes. Task cleanup. fix up windows mutex.
* fixes #452 Want tcp6:// and tcp4:// to constrain IP familyGarrett D'Amore2018-05-17
|
* fixes #449 Want more flexible pipe eventsGarrett D'Amore2018-05-17
| | | | | | | | | This changes the signature of nng_pipe_notify(), and the associated events. The documentation is updated to reflect this. We have also broken the lock up so that we don't hold the master socket lock for some of these things, which may have beneficial impact on performance.
* fixes #441 Unintentional semantic in bus protocolGarrett D'Amore2018-05-17
|
* fixes #445 crash in taskq_threadGarrett D'Amore2018-05-16
| | | | | | | | This changes the array of flags, which was confusing, brittle, and racy, into a much simpler reference (busy) count on the task structures. This allows us to support certain kinds of "reentrant" dispatching, where either a synchronous or asynchronous task can reschedule / dispatch itself. The new code also helps reduce certain lock pressure, as a bonus.
* Switch to clang 6 and gcc 8 on xenial for circle ci.Garrett D'Amore2018-05-16
| | | | We also fixed some warnings found by gcc8.

* fixes #436 fix for 429 incomplete (ws ep crash)Garrett D'Amore2018-05-15
| | | | | | | While here, there is a little more endpoint termination hardening. Running this code base seems to not incur any faults beyond the very rare TCP port conflict that can occur from our random port selection in the test suite.
* fixes #433 tasks can leakGarrett D'Amore2018-05-15
| | | | | | While here I also improved the taskq.h comments (and removed a stale prototype for nni_task_cancel), and addressed leaks in the reqstress and multistress test programs.
* fixes #431 hang in taskq_waitGarrett D'Amore2018-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | fixes #429 async websocket reap leads to crash This tightens up the code for shutdown, ensuring that transport callbacks are completely stopped before advancing to the next step of teardown of transport pipes or endpoints. It also fixes a problem where task_wait would sometimes get "stuck" as tasks transitioned between asynch and synchronous completions. Finally, it saves a few cycles by only calling a cancellation callback once during cancellation of an aio.
* fixes #419 want to nni_aio_stop without blocking (#428)Garrett D'Amore2018-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * fixes #419 want to nni_aio_stop without blocking This actually introduces an nni_aio_close() API that causes nni_aio_begin to return NNG_ECLOSED, while scheduling a callback on the AIO to do an NNG_ECLOSED as well. This should be called in non-blocking close() contexts instead of nni_aio_stop(), and the cases where we call nni_aio_fini() multiple times are updated updated to add nni_aio_stop() calls on all "interlinked" aios before finalizing them. Furthermore, we call nni_aio_close() as soon as practical in the close path. This closes an annoying race condition where the callback from a lower subsystem could wind up rescheduling an operation that we wanted to abort.
* fixes #352 aio lock is burning hotGarrett D'Amore2018-05-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fixes #326 consider nni_taskq_exec_synch() fixes #410 kqueue implementation could be smarter fixes #411 epoll_implementation could be smarter fixes #426 synchronous completion can lead to panic fixes #421 pipe close race condition/duplicate destroy This is a major refactoring of two significant parts of the code base, which are closely interrelated. First the aio and taskq framework have undergone a number of simplifications, and improvements. We have ditched a few parts of the internal API (for example tasks no longer support cancellation) that weren't terribly useful but added a lot of complexity, and we've made aio_schedule something that now checks for cancellation or other "premature" completions. The aio framework now uses the tasks more tightly, so that aio wait can devolve into just nni_task_wait(). We did have to add a "task_prep()" step to prevent race conditions. Second, the entire POSIX poller framework has been simplified, and made more robust, and more scalable. There were some fairly inherent race conditions around the shutdown/close code, where we *thought* we were synchronizing against the other thread, but weren't doing so adequately. With a cleaner design, we've been able to tighten up the implementation to remove these race conditions, while substantially reducing the chance for lock contention, thereby improving scalability. The illumos poller also got a performance boost by polling for multiple events. In highly "busy" systems, we expect to see vast reductions in lock contention, and therefore greater scalability, in addition to overall improved reliability. One area where we currently can do better is that there is still only a single poller thread run. Scaling this out is a task that has to be done differently for each poller, and carefuly to ensure that close conditions are safe on all pollers, and that no chance for deadlock/livelock waiting for pfd finalizers can occur.
* fixes #423 desire tunable stress time and pressure in stress testsGarrett D'Amore2018-05-09
| | | | | | | | Use -p STRESSPRESSURE=<count> (default 32) and -p STRESSTIME=<sec> to affect stress run. Pressure should be a number [2,x] where x is determined by the number of threads and file descriptors your platform can handle. Modern platforms should be able to handle at least 100.

* fixes #304 perf tool exits too quickly on throughput clientGarrett D'Amore2018-05-07
| | | | | | | | This adds a synchronization at exit step, where the server sends a completion message to the client. This permits the client to to be sure that the server has got all the data. There is a 5 second timeout, which should allow this to work (albeit with a weird 5 second completion delay) with legacy servers.
