* fixes #329 type checking not done for setoptGarrett D'Amore2018-04-04
|
* fixes #324 nni_aio_set_synch leads to race conditionGarrett D'Amore2018-04-04
| | | | | | | | fixes #325 synchronous aio completion crash fixes #327 move nni_clock() operations to outside the nni_aio_lk. This work was done for the context tree, and is necessary to properly enable that branch.
* fixes #317 TLS, TCP, and IPC should support multiple outstanding opsGarrett D'Amore2018-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 #301 String option handling for getoptGarrett D'Amore2018-03-20

* 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.
* fixes #295 boolean options should use C99 bool typeGarrett D'Amore2018-03-18
| | | | | | | | | | | fixes #275 nng_pipe_getopt_ptr() missing? fixes #285 nng_setopt_ptr MIS fixes #297 nng_listener/dialer_close does not validate mode This change adds some missing APIs, and changes others. In particular, certain options are now of type bool, with size of just one. This is a *breaking* change for code that uses those options -- NNG_OPT_RAW, NNG_OPT_PAIR1_POLY, NNG_OPT_TLS_VERIFIED.
* fixes #289 nng_sockaddr could just be a unionGarrett D'Amore2018-03-14
| | | | fixes #290 sockaddr improvements
* fixes #262 NNG_OPT_URL should be resolvedGarrett D'Amore2018-03-04
| | | | | | | | This causes TCP, TLS, and ZT endpoints to resolve any wildcards, and even IP addresses, when reporting the listen URL. The dialer URL is reported unresolved. Test cases for this are added as well, and nngcat actually reports this if --verbose is supplied.
* 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.
* Expose scatter/gather I/O vectors; we will use for HTTP API.Garrett D'Amore2018-01-29

* 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 #211 Restore handling of '*' in URL logicGarrett D'Amore2018-01-17
|
* Convert existing websocket and http code to use new URL framework.Garrett D'Amore2018-01-05
| | | | | | This also fixes a use-after-free bug in the HTTP framework, where the handler could be deleted why callbacks were still using it. (We now reference count the handlers.)
* Fix leaks on send.Garrett D'Amore2018-01-03
| | | | | | | 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.
* 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 #154 underlyng TCP & IPC transports should support partial recv/sendGarrett D'Amore2017-11-13
| | | | fixes #155 POSIX TCP & IPC could avoid a lot of context switches
* 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 #127 Bad format TCP address causes null pointer exceptionGarrett D'Amore2017-10-23
| | | | I've added some tests to validate this too.
* 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.
* fixes #120 nng_sockaddr options initialized with garbage dataGarrett D'Amore2017-10-19
|
* fixes #5 Address propertiesGarrett D'Amore2017-10-03
| | | | | | | | | Added TCP socket address properties on pipes. This adds the plumbing for the various platform specifics, and includes both v4 and v6 handling. We've included a TCPv6 test as well.
* 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.)
* 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.
* Introduce utility safe string handling functions.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-28
| | | | | | | | 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.)
* 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 #41 Move DNS out of tcp transportGarrett D'Amore2017-08-21
| | | | | | | | | 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.
* Endpoint API completely implemented.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-18
| | | | | | 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.
* 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.
* Simplify initialization, fix error in closed TCP endpoint.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-08

* Fix a few pointer vs. character errors found by gcc 7.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-07

* Fix warninsg about size types found in 64-bit windows build.Garrett D'Amore2017-08-05
|
* 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.
* fixes #28 Occasional orphaned pipe or endpoint?Garrett D'Amore2017-07-21
|
* 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.
* fixes #21 Crash in IPC (POSIX)Garrett D'Amore2017-07-18
| | | | | | This resolves the orphaned pipedesc, which actually could have affected Windows too. I think maybe we are race free. Lots more testing is still required, but stress runs seem to be passing now.
* 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.)
* Race conditions removed... TCP tests work well know.Garrett D'Amore2017-07-15
|
* Windows implmentation of TCP is "working now".Garrett D'Amore2017-07-13
| | | | | | This is only lightly tested, and I expect that there remain some race conditions. Endpoint logic in particular needs work.
* Give up on uncrustify; switch to clang-format.Garrett D'Amore2017-07-10

* Dead code removal (stuff for removed sync transport apis.)Garrett D'Amore2017-07-07
|
* 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.
