* fixes #143 Protocols and transports should be "configurable"Garrett D'Amore2017-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes all the protocols and transports optional. All of them except ZeroTier are enabled by default, but you can now disable them (remove from the build) with cmake options. The test suite is modified so that tests still run as much as they can, but skip over things caused by missing functionality from the library (due to configuration). Further, the constant definitions and prototypes for functions that are specific to transports or protocols are moved into appropriate headers, which should be included directly by applications wishing to use these. We have also added and improved documentation -- all of the transports are documented, and several more man pages for protocols have been added. (Req/Rep and Surveyor are still missing.)

* fixes #45 expose aio to applicationsGarrett D'Amore2017-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | While here we added a test for the aio stuff, and cleaned up some dead code for the old fd notifications. There were a few improvements to shorten & clean code elsewhere, such as short-circuiting task wait when the task has no callback. The legacy sendmsg() and recvmsg() APIs are still in the socket core until we convert the device code to use the aios.
* fixes #112 Need to move some stuff from socket to message queuesGarrett D'Amore2017-10-23

* fixes #84 Consider using msec for durationsGarrett D'Amore2017-10-19
| | | | | | There is now a public nng_duration type. We have also updated the zerotier work to work with the signed int64_t's that the latst ZeroTier dev branch is using.
* Refactor option handling APIs.Garrett D'Amore2017-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | This makes the APIs use string keys, and largely eliminates the use of integer option IDs altogether. The underlying registration for options is also now a bit richer, letting protcols and transports declare the actual options they use, rather than calling down into each entry point carte blanche and relying on ENOTSUP. This code may not be as fast as the integers was, but it is more intuitive, easier to extend, and is not on any hot code paths. (If you're diddling options on a hot code path you're doing something wrong.)
* More pipe option handling, pipe API support. Url option.Garrett D'Amore2017-09-22
| | | | | | | | | | This fleshes most of the pipe API out, making it available to end user code. It also adds a URL option that is independent of the address options (which would be sockaddrs.) Also, we are now setting the pipe for req/rep. The other protocols need to have the same logic added to set the receive pipe on the message. (Pair is already done.)
* Add improved getopt functions, pass integers by value.Garrett D'Amore2017-09-22

* Allocate AIOs dynamically.Garrett D'Amore2017-09-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We allocate AIO structures dynamically, so that we can use them abstractly in more places without inlining them. This will be used for the ZeroTier transport to allow us to create operations consisting of just the AIO. Furthermore, we provide accessors for some of the aio members, in the hopes that we will be able to wrap these for "safe" version of the AIO capability to export to applications, and to protocol and transport implementors. While here we cleaned up the protocol details to use consistently shorter names (no nni_ prefix for static symbols needed), and we also fixed a bug in the surveyor code.
* Eliminate legacy option settings, provide easier option IDs.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This eliminates all the old #define's or enum values, making all option IDs now totally dynamic, and providing well-known string values for well-behaved applications. We have added tests of some of these options, including lookups, and so forth. We have also fixed a few problems; including at least one crasher bug when the timeouts on reconnect were zero. Protocol specific options are now handled in the protocol. We will be moving the initialization for a few of those well known entities to the protocol startup code, following the PAIRv1 pattern, later. Applications must therefore not depend on the value of the integer IDs, at least until the application has opened a socket of the appropriate type.
* Provide versions of mutex, condvar, and aio init that never fail.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the underlying platform fails (FreeBSD is the only one I'm aware of that does this!), we use a global lock or condition variable instead. This means that our lock initializers never ever fail. Probably we could eliminate most of this for Linux and Darwin, since on those platforms, mutex and condvar initialization reasonably never fails. Initial benchmarks show little difference either way -- so we can revisit (optimize) later. This removes a lot of otherwise untested code in error cases and so forth, improving coverage and resilience in the face of allocation failures. Platforms other than POSIX should follow a similar pattern if they need this. (VxWorks, I'm thinking of you.) Most sane platforms won't have an issue here, since normally these initializations do not need to allocate memory. (Reportedly, even FreeBSD has plans to "fix" this in libthr2.) While here, some bugs were fixed in initialization & teardown. The fallback code is properly tested with dedicated test cases.
* Convert duration to usec.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-14
|
* REP drops peers a little too aggressively.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-14
| | | | | | | | We noticed that certain failure modes were exposed in tests that were caused by us closing the underlying pipe when certain messaging errors occurred. Discarding the pipe is the wrong answer; instead we should discard the message and keep the pipe open (unless the message is so malformed that the remote party cannot be trusted.)
* Unify the msg API.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes the operations that work on headers start with nni_msg_header or nng_msg_header. It also renames _trunc to _chop (same strlen as _trim), and renames prepend to insert. We add a shorthand for clearing message content, and make better use of the endian safe 32-bit accessors too. This also fixes a bug in inserting large headers into messages. A test suite for message handling is included.
* fixes #44 open protocol by "name" (symbol) instead numberGarrett D'Amore2017-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | fixes #38 Make protocols "pluggable", or at least optional This is a breaking change, as we've done away with the central registered list of protocols, and instead demand the user call nng_xxx_open() where xxx is a protocol name. (We did keep a table around in the compat framework though.) There is a nice way for protocols to plug in via an nni_proto_open(), where they can use a generic constructor that they use to build a protocol specific constructor (passing their ops vector in.)
* Added nn_compat code for option handling, fixed other bugs.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-08
| | | | | | | Hop counts for REQ were busted (bad TTL), and imported the compat_reqtll test. At the same time, added code to nn_term to shut down completely, discarding sockets. (Note that some things, such as globals, may still be left around; that's ok.)
* Yet more race condition fixes.Garrett D'Amore2017-07-20
| | | | | | | | | We need to remember that protocol stops can run synchronously, and therefore we need to wait for the aio to complete. Further, we need to break apart shutting down aio activity from deallocation, as we need to shut down *all* async activity before deallocating *anything*. Noticed that we had a pipe race in the surveyor pattern too.
* Crash on close again.Garrett D'Amore2017-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | This one is caused by us deallocating the msg queue before we stop all asynchronous I/O operations; consequently we can wind up with a thread trying to access a msg queue after it has been destroyed. A lesson here is that nni_aio_fini() needs to be treated much like nni_thr_fini() - you should do this *before* deallocating anything that callback functions might be referencing.
* Bus, Req/Rep, and Surv/Resp should use aio_cancel instead of aio_stop.Garrett D'Amore2017-07-15

* Now that idhash is locked, we can ditch some locking in protocols.Garrett D'Amore2017-07-13
|
* Make idhash non-inlined (so we can add a mutex.)Garrett D'Amore2017-07-13

* Remove the extra _aio_ part of pipe send and recv functions.Garrett D'Amore2017-07-02
|
* We don't need pipe_hold or pipe_rele anymore.Garrett D'Amore2017-06-28
|
* Refactor stop again, closing numerous races (thanks valgrind!)Garrett D'Amore2017-06-28

* Make APIs for holding references more consistent.Garrett D'Amore2017-06-21
|
* Pipe ID race on close (pipe IDs are zero at close).Garrett D'Amore2017-04-14
| | | | | This should address some of the errors we've seen. Additionally, the scalability test was a bit brittle due to too-short timeouts.
* Hopefully close shutdown race in rep.Garrett D'Amore2017-03-29

|
* Start of close related race fixes. Scalability test.Garrett D'Amore2017-03-10
|
* Req/Rep now callback driven.Garrett D'Amore2017-03-07
|
* Initial work on REP callback handling.Garrett D'Amore2017-03-06
|
* Add endpoint tuning of maxrcv size. Fix cmsg API.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CMSG handling was completely borked. This is fixed now, and we stash the SP header size (ugh) in the CMSG contents to match what nanomsg does. We now pass the cmsg validation test. We also fixed handling of certain endpoint-related options, so that endpoints can get options from the socket at initialization time. This required a minor change to the transport API for endpoints. Finally, we fixed a critical fault in the REP handling of RAW sockets, which caused them to always return NNG_ESTATE in all cases. It should now honor the actual socket option.
* Added a bunch more compatibility stuff.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-23
| | | | | | | | I implemented the reqrep compatibility test, which uncovered a few semantic issues I had in the REQ/REP protocol, which I've fixed. There are still missing things. and at least one portion of the req/rep test suite cannot be enabled until I add tuning of the reconnect timeout, which is currently way too long (1 sec) for the test suite to work.
* Event notification via pollable FDs verified working.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-22
|
* Added protocol flags (which ones can send, and which can receive).Garrett D'Amore2017-01-21
|
* Fix leaks in bus, socket leaks, tighten up close-side refcnting.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This does a few things. First it closes some preexisting leaks. Second it tightens the overall close logic so that we automatically discard idhash resources (while keeping numeric values for next id etc. around) when the last socket is closed. This then eliminates the need for applications to ever explicitly terminate resources. It turns out platform-specific resources established at nni_init() time might still be leaked, but it's also the case that we now no longer dynamically allocate anything at platform initialization time. (This presumes that the platform doesn't do so under the hood when creating critical sections or mutexes for example.)
* Start of event framework.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-16
| | | | | | | | | | This compiles correctly, but doesn't actually deliver events yet. As part of this, I've made most of the initializables in nng safe to tear-down if uninitialized (or set to zero e.g. via calloc). This makes it loads easier to write the teardown on error code, since I can deinit everything, without worrying about which things have been initialized and which have not.
* Various complaints found in AppVeyor build.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-16
|
* Add survey test (and fix survey pattern).Garrett D'Amore2017-01-09
| | | | | | | As part of this, we've added a way to unblock callers in a message queue with an error, even without a signal channel. This was necessary to interrupt blockers upon survey timeout. They will get NNG_ETIMEDOUT, but afterwards callers get NNG_ESTATE.
* New ISAAC pRNG. This replaces other local hacks for random data.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-08
| | | | | | Platforms must seed the pRNGs by offering an nni_plat_seed_prng() routine. Implementations for POSIX using various options (including the /dev/urandom device) are supplied.
* Move to generic socket & pipe workers, and up to 4 each.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-08
| | | | | This should eliminate all need for protocols to do their own thread management tasks.
* Add respondent protocol. (Half of survey pattern.)Garrett D'Amore2017-01-08
|
* Simplify locking for protocols.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-07
| | | | | | | | | In an attempt to simplify the protocol implementation, and hopefully track down a close related race, we've made it so that most protocols need not worry about locks, and can access the socket lock if they do need a lock. They also let the socket manage their workers, for the most part. (The req protocol is special, since it needs a top level work distributor, *and* a resender.)
* Bunch of copyright fixes.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-06
