* http: The big HTTP API refactoring of January 2025.v2.0.0-alpha.3http-client-transGarrett D'Amore2025-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This represents a major change in the HTTP code base, consisting of a complete revamp of the HTTP API. The changes here are too numerous to mention, but the end result should be a vastly simpler API for both server and client applications. Many needless allocations were removed by providing fixed buffers for various parameters and headers when possible. A few bugs were fixed. Most especially we have fixed some bugs around very large URIs and headers, and we have also addressed conformance bugs to more closely conform to RFCs 9110 and 9112. As part of this work, the APIs for WebSockets changed slightly as well. In particular the properties available for accessing headers have changed. There is still documentation conversion work to do, and additional functionality (such as proper support for chunked transfers), but this is a big step in the right direction.
* nng/args.h: add header guardGarrett D'Amore2025-01-06

* http: server callback API simplifiedGarrett D'Amore2025-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | This simplified API lets callbacks obtain the response from the connection objection directly, and does not require the aio to carry it as a parameter. Further, the request and response are both stored inline in the connection, reducing allocations. This is at present only for the server; the client will get a similar set of changes.
* http: changing transaction API to inline req and res structuresGarrett D'Amore2025-01-05
| | | | | This is a step towards simplifying this API and ultimately simplifying the HTTP callback API used for the server side.
* args: Convert nng_opts_parse into a header only library using `nng_args_parse`.Garrett D'Amore2025-01-04
| | | | | | | | The API is identical, except that some names have changed, and this is now a header library in `nng/args.h` - so the core library does not need to carry this code in binaries. Being a header library also means it is not necessary to link against NNG, and it does not include any parts of NNG; it only depends on a standard C99 or C11 environment.
* api: Promote idhash supplemental API to coreGarrett D'Amore2025-01-04
|
* api: remove the supplemental platform.h headerGarrett D'Amore2025-01-04
|
* api: fold TLS supplemental headers into nng.hGarrett D'Amore2025-01-04
|
* api: remove dead NNG_OPT_URL macroGarrett D'Amore2025-01-04
|
* api: remove old protocol headersGarrett D'Amore2025-01-04

* zerotier: remove unused zerotier.h transport headerGarrett D'Amore2025-01-04
|
* compat: remove unused leftover libnanomsg compatibility headersGarrett D'Amore2025-01-04
|
* api: rename nng_send_aio and nng_recv_aio to nng_socket_send and nng_socket_recvGarrett D'Amore2025-01-04
| | | | This aligns more closely with the nng_ctx functions.
* api: drop the 64-bit option accessors (no more 64-bit option types)Garrett D'Amore2025-01-03
|
* api: remove unused _uint64 options accessors for contexts and socketsGarrett D'Amore2025-01-01
| | | | Also, clarification and add socket option docs for MAXRECVSZ, RECONNMINT, RECONNMAXT
* api: Remove the NNG_FLAG_ALLOCGarrett D'Amore2025-01-01
| | | | | | | | This flag failed to provide real zero copy that it was intended for, and it also involved extra allocations. Further, the API for it was brittle and error prone. Modern code should just work directly with nng_msg structures.
* protocols: move content from the protocols to nng.hGarrett D'Amore2025-01-01
| | | | | This should simplify things for developers. Just one header to include in most cases now.
* api: add NNG1_MIGRATION transition assistance macroGarrett D'Amore2024-12-31
|
* socket: rename nng_close to nng_socket_closeGarrett D'Amore2024-12-31
|
* fixes #863 socket activation: for TCP and IPC (POSIX only)Garrett D'Amore2024-12-30
| | | | | | | | | This introduces a new option "NNG_OPT_LISTEN_FD", understood by TCP, TLS, and (on POSIX systems) IPC. This option is used to pass a file descriptor or handle (Windows) that is already listening (ready for ACCEPT to be called). For TCP and TLS, the socket must be of type AF_INET or AF_INET6, and for IPC it must be of type AF_UNIX.
* url: accessor functions missing NNG_DECL tagGarrett D'Amore2024-12-29
|
* fixes #961 surprising pipe event orderGarrett D'Amore2024-12-28
|
* zerotier: removedGarrett D'Amore2024-12-26
| | | | | | | | | | All vestiges of ZeroTier have been removed. Also, as consequence, some binary values have changed (specifically the number of the address family used for NNG_AF_ABSTRACT.) We may create a new ZeroTier transport that makes use of lwIP to provide for ZeroTier and native host network coexistence, without requiring ZeroTier to participate in the native networking stack.
* aio: nng_aio_defer replaced by nng_aio_startGarrett D'Amore2024-12-26
| | | | | This represents an API change, and we remove the nng_aio_begin function as well, introducing the lightweight nng_aio_reset instead.
* aio: introduce NNG_ESTOPPEDGarrett D'Amore2024-12-26
| | | | | | | | | | | This error code results when an AIO is stopped permanently, as a result of nni_aio_close or nni_aio_stop. The associated AIO object cannot be used again. This discrimantes against a file being closed, or a temporary cancellation which might allow the aio to be reused. Consumers must check for this error status in their callbacks, and not resubmit an operation that failed with this error. Doing so, will result in an infinite loop of submit / errors.
* aio: introduce nni_aio_deferGarrett D'Amore2024-12-22
| | | | | | | | This will replace nni_aio_schedule, and it includes finishing the task if needed. It does so without dropping the lock and so is more efficient and race free. This includes some conversion of some subsystems to it.
* http: nng_http_handler_set_data is now void return (API break)Garrett D'Amore2024-12-22
|
* nng_http_server_collect_body now void return (API break)Garrett D'Amore2024-12-22
|
* http: handler set tree no longer returns a value (API break)Garrett D'Amore2024-12-22
|
* HTTP: nng_http_handler_set_method no longer failsGarrett D'Amore2024-12-22
|
* HTTP handler: limit host names to 256 bytes (RFC 1035 specifies 253.)Garrett D'Amore2024-12-22
| | | | This also makes `nng_http_handler_set_host` never fail (API break).
* http: setting response status never fails (breaking API change)Garrett D'Amore2024-12-22
|
* http: method on request structure is now staticGarrett D'Amore2024-12-22
| | | | | This saves yet another allocation. It also no longer returns a value making this a breaking change.
* HTTP: intern the version and avoid allocationv2.0.0-alpha.1Garrett D'Amore2024-12-22
| | | | | | There are only a few possible reasonable values, and we can intern them to avoid any allocations for it. (We will probably do the same for the HTTP method shortly as well.)
* streams: add explicit stop functionsGarrett D'Amore2024-12-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | This allows us to explicitly stop streams, dialers, and listeners, before we start tearing down things. This hopefully will be useful in resolving use-after-free bugs in http, tls, and websockets. The new functions are not yet documented, but they are nng_stream_stop, nng_stream_dialer_stop, and nng_stream_listener_stop. They should be called after close, and before free. The close functions now close without blocking, but the stop function is allowed to block.
* aio: task_abort was a mistakeGarrett D'Amore2024-12-07
| | | | | | | | | The use of task_abort to prematurely fail an aio at scheduling time was a mistake, because it could have led to duplicate calls to nng_aio_finish(). We do need to ensure that we leave an indicator so that nni_aio_schedule can return the abort status to caller, in the case that abort is called between the nni_aio_begin and nni_aio_schedule calls.
* url: add nng_url_resolve_portGarrett D'Amore2024-12-06
| | | | | | This API exists to support tests and similar cases where port 0 is used to choose a dynamic port. Once the port is bound, and an actual value is known, it can be patched in using this API.
* Remove all the get_ptr option accessors.Garrett D'Amore2024-11-24
| | | | | Temporarily we have removed access to the peer alt names, but that was never used and was not tested (it also didn't work with WolfSSL.)
* Remove all the set_ptr option functions.Garrett D'Amore2024-11-24
| | | | | This hopefully ensures that we have good typed functions instead of just passing around pointers blithely.
* Remove the NNG_OPT_IPC_SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR option.Garrett D'Amore2024-11-24
| | | | | | | | This is now replaced with nng_listener_set_security_descriptor and nng_stream_listener_set_security_descriptor functions. We may elect to remove these entirely, but for named pipe users they are probably still quite useful. Moving towards UNIX domain sockets would obsolete this functionality.
* http: constify some functionsGarrett D'Amore2024-11-24
|
* Remove string option functions from sockets and contexts.Garrett D'Amore2024-11-24
| | | | | These are not needed anymore, and the semantics of string accessors is brittle, so we want to eliminate these as much as possible.
* socket: remove unused nng_socket_get_ptr and nng_socket_set_ptr.Garrett D'Amore2024-11-24
| | | | | | | | We will be removing these pointer based functions more generally as we we have type-specific accessors instead. We also removed the context versions of these functions, which were not previously documented.
* listener: add listener_create_url and listen_urlGarrett D'Amore2024-11-23
|
* dialers: add nng_dial_url and nng_dialer_create_urlGarrett D'Amore2024-11-23
| | | | | This allows a URL object to be used for dialing, which may be easier than using a string if you already have the URL object.
* core: remove NNG_OPT_URL entirelyGarrett D'Amore2024-11-23
|
* Introduce nng_listener_get_url and nng_dialer_get_url.Garrett D'Amore2024-11-21
| | | | This is intended to replace NNG_OPT_URL.
* Collect the bound port as part of the URL at bind time.Garrett D'Amore2024-11-21
| | | | This is a step on cleaning up our logic around NNG_OPT_URL.
* Use 32-bit port numbers.Garrett D'Amore2024-11-21
| | | | | While TCP and UDP port numbers are 16-bits, ZT uses a larger (24-bit) port number.
* Introduce accessors for nng_url struct and make it opaque.Garrett D'Amore2024-11-18
| | | | | This provides safety by ensuring that applications do not depend on the size or layout of nng_url itself.
