This is a significant refactor of the library configuration.
We use the modern package configuration helper, with a template
script that also does the find_package dance for any of our
dependencies.
We also have restructured the code so that most protocols and
transports have their configuration isolated to their own CMakeLists
file, reducing the size of the global CMakeLists file.

This changes the signature of the aio cancellation routines
to take the argument for cancellation directly, so we do not
need to lookup the argument using the nni_aio_get_prov_data.
We should probably consider eliminating nni_aio_get_prov_data,
and co, and changing the prov_extra to reflect prov_data. Later.

fixes #615 IPC close on Windows leaves handle open
This reintroduces the code to eradicate the separate transport
start function for IPC, as a incremental step towards the full
fix for 599 and 208. It also addresses 615, by including revised
logic for the handling of close.

fixes #208 pipe start should occur before connect / accept
fixes #616 Race condition closing between header & body
This refactors the transports to handle their own connection
handshaking before passing the pipe to the socket. This
changes and simplifies the setup. This also fixes a rather
challenging race condition described by #616.

fixes #596 POSIX IPC should move away from pipedesc/epdesc
fixes #598 TLS and TCP listeners could support NNG_OPT_LOCADDR
fixes #594 Windows IPC should use "new style" win_io code.
fixes #597 macOS could support PEER PID
This large change set cleans up the IPC support on Windows and
POSIX. This has the beneficial impact of significantly reducing
the complexity of the code, reducing locking, increasing
concurrency (multiple dial and accepts can be outstanding now),
reducing context switches (we complete thins synchronously now).
While here we have added some missing option support, and fixed a
few more bugs that we found in the TCP code changes from last week.

fixes #573 atomic flags could help
This introduces a new atomic flag, and reduces some of the global
locking. The lock refactoring work is not yet complete, but this is
a positive step forward, and should help with certain things.
While here we also fixed a compile warning due to incorrect types.

This separates the plumbing for endpoints into distinct
dialer and listeners. Some of the transports could benefit
from further separation, but we've done some rather larger
separation e.g. for the websocket transport.
IPC would be a good one to update later, when we start looking
at exposing a more natural underlying API.

fixes #538 setopt should have an explicit chkopt routine
fixes #537 Internal TCP API needs better name separation
fixes #524 Option types should be "typed"
This is a rework of the option management code, to make it both clearer
and to prepare for further work to break up endpoints. This reduces
a certain amount of dead or redundant code, and actually saves cycles
when setting options, as some loops were not terminated that should have
been.

This special cases the URL parser for inproc and IPC urls,
changing so that they no longer parse the thing after the ://
as anything special. This allows IPC URLs to be relative.

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 #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
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 #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.

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 #22 Consider using synchronous completions sometimes
Transport improvements for IPC, TCP, and TLS.
This change does three things.
First it permits multiple outstanding receives or sends on the transport.
This change is being made to accomodate some other changes in the protocols
where it might be advantageous to post send or receives directly against
the transport pipe without going through another level of indirection.
Second, it changes the normal completions to be performed synchronously.
This translates into a rather major performance improvement, reducing
latency by some 27%, and thereby improving performance altogether. (This
elminates two extra context switches per transaction!)
FInally, we can save some extra checks and conditions because we know
that completions cannot happen if we don't have a pending operation
(we no longer complete out of sequence), and we only call the dosend
operation when we have something to send. This can eliminate some
pipeline stalls.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
I'm pretty sure I need to go back and review the handling of
send messages for websocket too. We still have a receive leak
in websocket and leaks caused by the new URL parsing code which
needs to be refactored.

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.

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.)

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.)
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
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.)

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.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
We have our versions of strdup, strlcat, and strlcpy.
This means we can avoid using snprintf() in many cases
(saving cycles), and we can get safer checks. We use
the platform supplied versions of these if they exist
(wrapping with nni_xxx versions.)

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.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
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.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
This moves the DNS related functionality into common code, and also
removes all the URL parsing stuff out of the platform specific code
and into the transports. Now the transports just take sockaddr's on
initialization. (We may want to move this until later.)
We also add UDP resolution as another separate API.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
This supports creating listeners and dialers, managing options
on them (though only a few options are supported at present),
starting them and closing them, all independently.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
This also includes tests for some of the edge cases surrounding
pluggable transports, such as version mismatch, duplication registration,
and failure to initialize.
