OpenSSL library QUIC support cannot be tested at configure time when
using the --with-openssl option so assume it's present if requested.
While here, fixed the error message in case QUIC support is missing.
To improve output performance, UDP segmentation offloading is used
if available. If there is a significant amount of data in an output
queue and path is verified, QUIC packets are not sent one-by-one,
but instead are collected in a buffer, which is then passed to kernel
in a single sendmsg call, using UDP GSO. Such method greatly decreases
number of system calls and thus system load.
The patch adds proper transitions between multiple networking addresses that
can be used by a single quic connection. New networking paths are validated
using PATH_CHALLENGE/PATH_RESPONSE frames.
In FreeBSD 13, eventfd(2) was added, and this breaks build
with --test-build-epoll and without --with-file-aio. Fix is
to move eventfd(2) detection to auto/os/linux, as it is used
only on Linux as a notification mechanism for epoll().
The strerrordesc_np() function, introduced in glibc 2.32, provides an
async-signal-safe way to obtain error messages. This makes it possible
to avoid copying error messages.
Previously, systems without sys_nerr (or _sys_nerr) were handled with an
assumption that errors start at 0 and continuous. This is, however, not
something POSIX requires, and not true on some platforms.
Notably, on Linux, where sys_nerr is no longer available for newly linked
binaries starting with glibc 2.32, there are gaps in error list, which
used to stop us from properly detecting maximum errno. Further, on
GNU/Hurd errors start at 0x40000001.
With this change, maximum errno detection is moved to the runtime code,
now able to ignore gaps, and also detects the first error if needed.
This fixes observed "Unknown error" messages as seen on Linux with
glibc 2.32 and on GNU/Hurd.
The quic kernel bpf helper inspects packet payload for DCID, extracts key
and routes the packet into socket matching the key.
Due to reuseport feature, each worker owns a personal socket, which is
identified by the same key, used to create DCID.
BPF objects are locked in RAM and are subject to RLIMIT_MEMLOCK.
The "ulimit -l" command may be used to setup proper limits, if maps
cannot be created with EPERM or updated with ETOOLONG.
The filter is responsible for creating HTTP/3 response header and body.
The change removes differences to the default branch for
ngx_http_chunked_filter_module and ngx_http_header_filter_module.
When installing or running from a non-root user it is sometimes required to
override default, compiled in error log path. There was no way to do this
without rebuilding the binary (ticket #147).
This patch introduced "-e" command line option which allows one to override
compiled in error log path.
Addon modules, both dynamic and static, can now use shared source files.
Shared sources result in only one make rule even if specified several
times in different modules.
All code dealing with serializing/deserializing
is moved int srv/event/ngx_event_quic_transport.c/h file.
All macros for dealing with data are internal to source file.
The header file exposes frame types and error codes.
The exported functions are currently packet header parsers and writers
and frames parser/writer.
The ngx_quic_header_t structure is updated with 'log' member. This avoids
passing extra argument to parsing functions that need to report errors.
