* fixes #346 nng_recv() sometimes acts on null `msg` pointerGarrett D'Amore2018-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This closes a fundamental flaw in the way aio structures were handled. In paticular, aio expiration could race ahead, and fire before the aio was properly registered by the provider. This ultimately led to the possibility of duplicate completions on the same aio. The solution involved breaking up nni_aio_start into two functions. nni_aio_begin (which can be run outside of external locks) simply validates that nni_aio_fini() has not been called, and clears certain fields in the aio to make it ready for use by the provider. nni_aio_schedule does the work to register the aio with the expiration thread, and should only be called when the aio is actually scheduled for asynchronous completion. nni_aio_schedule_verify does the same thing, but returns NNG_ETIMEDOUT if the aio has a zero length timeout. This change has a small negative performance impact. We have plans to rectify that by converting nni_aio_begin to use a locklesss flag for the aio->a_fini bit. While we were here, we fixed some error paths in the POSIX subsystem, which would have returned incorrect error codes, and we made some optmizations in the message queues to reduce conditionals while holding locks in the hot code path.

* fixes #296 Typed options should validate option typeGarrett D'Amore2018-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | fixes #302 nng_dialer/listener/pipe_getopt_sockaddr desired This adds plumbing to pass and check the type of options all the way through. NNG_ZT_OPT_ORBIT is type UINT64, but you can use the untyped form to pass two of them if needed. No typed access for retrieving strings yet. I think this should allocate a pointer and copy that out, but that's for later.

* CMake & CPack improvements.Garrett D'Amore2018-02-21
| | | | | | | | | These are incremental updates... we avoid using install() in the subdirectories, so that we can adapt properly to them in the single parent directory. We have started some of the work to improve support for CPack. This is still not yet done, but work in progress.
* fixes #171 Refactor aio to use generic data fieldsGarrett D'Amore2018-02-08
| | | | | | | | This addresses the use of the pipe special field, and eliminates it. The message APIs (recvmsg, sendmsg) need to be updated as well still, but I want to handle that as part of a separate issue. While here we fixed various compiler warnings, etc.
* fixes #173 Define public HTTP server APIGarrett D'Amore2018-02-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces enough of the HTTP API to support fully server applications, including creation of websocket style protocols, pluggable handlers, and so forth. We have also introduced scatter/gather I/O (rudimentary) for aios, and made other enhancements to the AIO framework. The internals of the AIOs themselves are now fully private, and we have eliminated the aio->a_addr member, with plans to remove the pipe and possibly message members as well. A few other minor issues were found and fixed as well. The HTTP API includes request, response, and connection objects, which can be used with both servers and clients. It also defines the HTTP server and handler objects, which support server applications. Support for client applications will require a client object to be exposed, and that should be happening shortly. None of this is "documented" yet, bug again, we will follow up shortly.
* fixes #219 transports should take URL structure instead of string addressGarrett D'Amore2018-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | This eliminates a bunch of redundant URL parsing, using the common URL logic we already have in place. While here I fixed a problem with the TLS and WSS test suites that was failing on older Ubuntu -- apparently older versions of mbedTLS were unhappy if selecting OPTIONAL verification without a validate certificate chain.
* fixes #209 NNG_OPT_TLS_VERIFIED is bustedGarrett D'Amore2018-01-17
| | | | | fixes #210 Want NNG_OPT_TLS_* options for TLS transport fixes #212 Eliminate a_endpt member of aio
* fixes #3 TLS transportGarrett D'Amore2017-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a new transport (compatible with the TLS transport from mangos), using TLS v1.2. To use the new transport, you must have the mbed TLS library available on your system (Xenial libmbedtls-dev). You can use version 2.x or newer -- 1.3.x and PolarSSL versions are not supported. You enable the TLS transport with -DNNG_TRANSPORT_TLS=ON in the CMake configuration. You must configure the server certificate by default, and this can only be done using nng options. See the nng_tls man page for details. This work is experimental, and was made possible by Capitar IT Group BV, and Staysail Systems, Inc.
* 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.)
* Various man page fixups, add inproc header.Garrett D'Amore2017-10-24
| | | | | | | We added nng_inproc man page, and a header with an explicit registration method for it. We also fixed up the markup on several other pages, and corrected the include statements for nng_zerotier.
* fixes #120 nng_sockaddr options initialized with garbage dataGarrett D'Amore2017-10-19
|
* 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.)
* Fix a few warnings and subtle test races.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-24
|
* 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.
* The common endpoint code already ensures state is proper.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-23
| | | | | | | This eliminates tests for code that we cannot reach, because the upper layer endpoint code already ensures that we don't get called if we are closing, that the mode is correct, and that only one outstanding endpoint operation is in progress on any given endpoint.
* fixes #39 Transport ops vector should be versionedGarrett D'Amore2017-08-17
| | | | | | This also includes tests for some of the edge cases surrounding pluggable transports, such as version mismatch, duplication registration, and failure to initialize.
* 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.
* fixes #63 NNG_FLAG_SYNCH should be the defaultGarrett D'Amore2017-08-14
| | | | | Also enables creating endpoints that are idle (first part of endpoint options API) and shutting down endpoints.
* 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.
* Refactor AIO logic to close numerous races and reduce complexity.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-04
| | | | | | | | | This passes valgrind 100% clean for both helgrind and deep leak checks. This represents a complete rethink of how the AIOs work, and much simpler synchronization; the provider API is a bit simpler to boot, as a number of failure modes have been simply eliminated. While here a few other minor bugs were squashed.
* Fix close-related leak of pipes.Garrett D'Amore2017-07-18
| | | | | | | | | | | We have seen leaks of pipes causing test failures (e.g. the Windows IPC test) due to EADDRINUSE. This was caused by a case where we failed to pass the pipe up because the AIO had already been canceled, and we didn't realize that we had oprhaned the pipe. The fix is to add a return value to nni_aio_finish, and verify that we did finish properly, or if we did not then we must free the pipe ourself. (The zero return from nni_aio_finish indicates that it accepts ownership of resources passed via the aio.)

* Add missing cancellation for inproc endpoints -- the source of much woe.Garrett D'Amore2017-07-15
| | | | | | | | | Most of the races around close were probably here - the cancellation was not getting through on endpoint close, which meant that we could actually toss endpoints while they were in use. We need to fix the timeouts stuff -- especially for reconnects etc, but we are just about ready for this stuff to be reintegrated into master.

* TCP asynchronous working now.Garrett D'Amore2017-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that I had to fix a number of subtle asynchronous handling bugs, but now TCP is fully asynchronous. We need to change the high-level dial and listen interfaces to be async as well. Some of the transport APIs have changed here, and I've elected to change what we expose to consumers as endpoints into seperate dialers and listeners. Under the hood they are the same, but it turns out that its helpful to know the intended use of the endpoint at initialization time. Scalability still occasionally hangs on Linux. Investigation pending.

|
* TCP (POSIX) async send/recv working. Other changes.Garrett D'Amore2017-03-29
| | | | | | | Transport-level pipe initialization is now sepearate and explicit. The POSIX send/recv logic still uses threads under the hood, but makes use of the AIO framework for send/recv. This is a key stepping stone towards enabling poll() or similar async I/O approaches.

* 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.

* Message API was awkward.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-06
| | | | | | | The use of a single function to get both size and length actually turned out to be awkward to use; better to have separate functions to get each. While here, disable some of the initialization/fork checks, because it turns out they aren't needed.
* Fixes to enable REQ/REP to operate.Garrett D'Amore2017-01-02
| | | | | | | This uncovered a few problems - inproc was not moving the headers to the body on transmit, and the message chunk allocator had a serious bug leading to memory corruption. I've also added a message dumper, which turns out to be incredibly useful during debugging.
