* Problem: In rare cases, afunix.h doesn't contain a definition for struct sockaddr_un
According to https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/issues/21623,
struct sockaddr_un might be unavailable on some machines even afunix.h exists.
For example, on some machines, the content of afunix.h looks like this:
typedef struct _SOCKADDR_UN
{
ADDRESS_FAMILY Family;
wchar_t Path[63];
} SOCKADDR_UN, *PSOCKADDR_UN;
but on other machines, it may looks like this:
#define UNIX_PATH_MAX 108
typedef struct sockaddr_un
{
ADDRESS_FAMILY sun_family;
char sun_path[UNIX_PATH_MAX];
} SOCKADDR_UN, *PSOCKADDR_UN;
Fixes#3949

zmq_ppoll mostly mimics zmq_poll behavior, except for the added feature of being able to specify a signal mask. Signals in this mask will be blocked during execution of zmq_ppoll. Switching of the process' active signal mask happens atomically with the actual poll call, so that no race conditions can occur. This behavior is useful when one wants to gracefully handle POSIX signals without race conditions. See e.g. the discussion below https://250bpm.com/blog:12/ for an explanation.
Also includes two new tests:
1. test_zmq_ppoll_fd does the same thing as test_zmq_poll_fd, demonstrating backwards compatibility with zmq_poll when used with a default signal mask.
2. test_zmq_ppoll_signals demonstrates the use of zmq_ppoll with a signal mask, blocking out SIGTERM everywhere except in zmq_ppoll, allowing to handle the signal in one place without having to worry about race conditions.
Solution: switch to Github Actions
Travis recently started enforcing credits for OSS projects without
any funding. While it is possible to get free credits, it is a manual
step that involves contacting customer support via email and asking to
add them, every week. While this does not require money, it requires
something far scarcer: volunteers time.
Drop Travis and migrate to Github Actions.
* Problem: No direct support for setting socket priority
Solution: Add ZMQ_PRIORITY socket option, which sets the
SO_PRIORITY socket option on the underlying socket. This
socket option is not supported under Windows. Check option
and set socket option on creation of underlying socket.
* Allow CMAKE to generate ws and wss transports
I guess there is little use of just ws transport, so by default
GnuTLS (and libsodium) are enabled
* cmake libzmq including wss transport (ubuntu 19.10 and ubuntu 19.10 + wsl 1.0)
test_security_fails (libsodium assert !?)
* updated relicense
* make external libs gnutls nss sodium optional
* #ifdef WSS classes and functions, build test*ws* only if correct libs are included, warning if libs not present
* make libsodium optional
* cmake fix tests TIPC transport
* clang-format pointed out a wrongly placed #ifdef
* GnuTLS before 3.6.7 is not safe
* msvc doesn't agree with strlen in array declaration, test_socks now at least compiles on windows
* windows: libsodium build fails, missing include dirs set by env var
* ws transport test only works when GnuTLS is found
* Fixed condition to use NSS / built in SHA1, so that test_ws_transport should now pass, also when GnuTLS is not found
Solution: use libbsd by default when available, and the internal implementation
only as a fallback, to take advantage of Linux distros maintenance of the
string libraries.
Solution: detect cacheline size for aligment purposes at build time
instead of hard-coding it, so that PPC and S390 can align to a value
greater than the 64 bytes default.
Uses libc getconf program, and falls back to the previous value of 64
if not found.
Solution: use requires.private, which pkg-config expands recursively
so that dependencies of dependencies can be linked against when
using pkg-config --static
* Problem: TIPC availability check is too strict
Solution: at build time only check if the API is available. In the tests
do a first check and a skip if the functionality is not available.
TIPC needs an in-tree but not loaded by default kernel module, tipc.ko
to be loaded, which requires root, so it is unlikely to be available on
any build system by default.
This will allow most distributions to ship with TIPC support built in,
and to avoid tests failure if the module is not there.
* Problem: no Travis tests for TIPC
Solution: mark one job with sudo: required and load the kernel module
* Problem: CMake fails when test returns 77 (skip)
Solution: set property to let it mark the test as skipped as intended
* Background thread scheduling
- add ZMQ_THREAD_AFFINITY ctx option; set all thread scheduling options
from the context of the secondary thread instead of using the main
process thread context!
- change ZMQ_THREAD_PRIORITY to support setting NICE of the background
thread when using SCHED_OTHER
Linux now supports Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) as per:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/vrf.txt
In order for an application to bind or connect to a socket with an
address in a VRF, they need to first bind the socket to the VRF device:
setsockopt(sd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_BINDTODEVICE, dev, strlen(dev)+1);
Note "dev" is the VRF device, eg. VRF "blue", rather than an interface
enslaved to the VRF.
Add a new socket option, ZMQ_BINDTODEVICE, to bind a socket to a device.
In general, if a socket is bound to a device, eg. an interface, only
packets received from that particular device are processed by the socket.
If device is a VRF device, then subsequent binds/connects to that socket
use addresses in the VRF routing table.
* add define for windows/UWP
* prevent issue with COM references
* gettickcount not available on uwp
* add compiler definitions
* add convenitnece cmake file
* brute force uwp compilation
* fix compiler version
* cosmetics
Solution: use pthread API to set the name. For now call every thread
"ZMQ b/g thread". Would be nice to number the I/O threads and name
explicitly the reaper thread, but in reality a bit of internal API
churn would be necessary, so perhaps it's not worth it.
This is useful when debugging a process with many threads.
* cmake WITH_LIBSODIUM option is broken
- Fixed the variable name in platform.hpp.in
- Fixed #if check for randombytes_close() when libsodium is used
* Fixed typo from previous commit
* Reverted compile error fix for randombytes_close()
Solution: use packages on Ubuntu and brews on OSX. The packages and
the brews are always kept up to date, so it's no use to rebuild the
libsodium stable branch manually everytime.
Solution: add macro in ZMQSourceRunChecks.cmake and optionally
include the TIPC sources if the support is available.
More importantly, only run the TIPC tests if the support is there.
Solution: establish a matrix of CI options. On one axis we have the
build system (autotools, cmake, android) and on the other axis we
have the encryption options (tweetnacl, libsodium or none).
- they have no copyright / license statement
- they are in some randomish directory structure
- they are a mix of postable and non-portable files
- they do not conform to conditional compile environment
Overall, it makes it rather more work than needed, in build scripts.
Solution: clean up tweetnacl sauce.
- merged code into single tweetnacl.c and .h
- standard copyright header, DJB to AUTHORS
- moved into src/ along with all other source files
- all system and conditional compilation hidden in these files
- thus, they can be compiled and packaged in all cases
- ZMQ_USE_TWEETNACL is set when we're using built-in tweetnacl
- HAVE_LIBSODIUM is set when we're using external libsodium
The decision about the poller mechanism to use (select, poll, ...)
was done twice: once by the build system and once by the code in
poller.hpp. As the build-system can actually detect the mechanisms
available, prefer that result to the hard coded defaults in
poller.hpp.
At the same time, remove the duplicate detection of select() vs.
poll()-variant from proxy.cpp, signaler.cpp and zmq.cpp.
This patch has not been tested on many build platforms: especially
the cmake build needs testing / patching. For the other builds,
hard code the result as these these are all Windows platforms.
