Solution: remove the implementation. Thijs Terlouw <thijsterlouw@gmail.com>,
the author, did not respond to requests to allow relicensing to MPL2,
so we have to remove his copyrighted work.
Remove the implementation and make get/set return -EOPNOTSUPP.
* 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.
Solution: clearly advise users to avoid them in all cases to
avoid unforseen problems.
Also fix markdown syntax, applicable transport types and getter description.
Solution: add space between OR'ed values
zmq_getsockopt.3 2472: warning [p 17, 9.5i, div '3tbd1,1', 0.5i]: can't break line
zmq_setsockopt.3 3471: warning [p 24, 1.8i, div '3tbd1,1', 0.5i]: can't break line
Solution: mark test_rebind_ipc as XFAIL on Hurd as it does not
implement getsockname on IPC and thus it's impossible to use
wildcard IPC binds.
Document that ZMQ_LAST_ENDPOINT does not work on Hurd with IPC.
Solution: revert the revert!
Revert "Problem: regression in 4.2.3 went unnoticed, want to release 4.2.5"
This reverts commit 5f17e26fa4c60c3de0282d1b6ad1e8b7037ed57a.
Solution: revert DRAFT -> STABLE API transition so that we can do a
bugfix-only 4.2.5 release.
Will be re-reverted once tagged.
Revert "Problem: ZMQ_BINDTODEVICE has met STABLE conditions"
This reverts commit 3cb79f5042cf32cdb7b1b58d4acf17eba85ec9f7.
Revert "Problem: ZMQ_MSG_GSSAPI_* have met STABLE conditions"
This reverts commit 374da4207b8034b0fcd67a2cc2165d50e09b9387.
Revert "Problem: ZMQ_MSG_T_SIZE has met STABLE conditions"
This reverts commit 6411c4a247c08ead50919d16b30eb030eaf44a7e.
Revert "Problem: docs say STABLE API still in DRAFT"
This reverts commit 9f2f30b7ffa09acc51d3b87251a47e83b435d5d4.
Solution: add ZMQ_ZAP_ENFORCE_DOMAIN to hide backward incompatible
change and make it disabled by default.
In a future release that breaks API compatibility we can then switch
the default to enabled in order to achieve full RFC compatibility.
Fixes#2762
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.
Problem: GSSAPI NAMETYPE options were not documented in man
pages for zmq_getsockopt() and zmq_setsockopt().
Solution: add new options to these manual pages.
These options are confusing and redundant. Their names suggest
they apply to the tcp:// transport, yet they are used for all
stream protocols. The methods zmq::set_tcp_receive_buffer and
zmq::set_tcp_send_buffer don't use these values at all, they use
ZMQ_SNDBUF and ZMQ_RCVBUF.
Solution: merge these new options into ZMQ_SNDBUF and ZMQ_RCVBUF.
This means defaulting these two options to 8192, and removing the
new options. We now have ZMQ_SNDBUF and ZMQ_RCVBUF being used both
for TCP socket control, and for input/output buffering.
Note: the default for SNDBUF and RCVBUF are otherwise 4096.
Solution: add new [set|get]sockopt ZMQ_PRE_ALLOCATED_FD to allow
users to let ZMQ use a pre-allocated file descriptor instead of
allocating a new one. Update [set|get]sockopt documentation and
test accordingly.
The main use case for this feature is a socket-activated systemd
service. For more information about this feature see:
http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/socket-activation.html
VMCI transport allows fast communication between the Host
and a virtual machine, between virtual machines on the same host,
and within a virtual machine (like IPC).
It requires VMware to be installed on the host and Guest Additions
to be installed on a guest.
ZMQ_INVERT_MATCHING reverses the PUB/SUB prefix matching. The subscription
list becomes a rejection list. The PUB socket sends messages to all
connected (X)SUB sockets that do not have any matching subscription.
Whenever the option is used on a PUB/XPUB socket, any connecting SUB
sockets must also set it or they will reject everything the publisher
sends them. XSUB sockets are unaffected because they do not filter out
incoming messages.
Solution: change setsockopts on printable keys to expect 41, nor 40
bytes. Code still accepts 40 bytes for compatibility, and copies the
key to a well-terminated string before using it.
Fixes#1148
- This seems redundant; is there a use case for NOT providing
the IPC credentials to the ZAP authenticator?
- More, why is IPC authentication done via libzmq instead of ZAP?
Is it because we're missing the transport type on the ZAP request?
Another take on LIBZMQ-568 to allow filtering IPC connections, this time
using ZAP. This change is backward compatible. If the
ZMQ_ZAP_IPC_CREDS option is set, the user, group, and process IDs of the
peer process are appended to the address (separated by colons) of a ZAP
request; otherwise, nothing changes. See LIBZMQ-568 and zmq_setsockopt
documentation for more information.
* ZMQ_REQ_STRICT was negative option (default 1) which goes against
the standard, where defaults are zero. I renamed this to
ZMQ_REQ_RELAXED.
* ZMQ_REQ_REQUEST_IDS felt clumsy and describes the technical solution
rather than the problem/requirement. I changed to ZMQ_REQ_CORRELATE
which seems more explicit.
On ZMQ_CURVE_xxxKEY fetches, would return 41 bytes into caller's 40-byte
buffer. Now these fetches only return 41 bytes if the caller explicitly
provides a 41-byte buffer (i.e. the option size is 41).
* This is passed to the ZAP handler in the 'domain' field
* If not set, or empty, then NULL security does not call the ZAP handler
* This resolves the phantom ZAP request syndrome seen with sockets where
security was never intended (e.g. in test cases)
* This means if you install a ZAP handler, it will not get any requests
for new connections until you take some explicit action, which can be
setting a username/password for PLAIN, a key for CURVE, or the domain
for NULL.
The use of binary for CURVE keys is painful; you cannot easily copy
these in e.g. email, or use them directly in source code. There are
various encoding possibilities. Base16 and Base64 are not optimal.
Ascii85 is not safe for source (it generates quotes and escapes).
So, I've designed a new Base85 encoding, Z85, which is safe to use
in code and elsewhere, and I've modified libzmq to use this where
it also uses binary keys (in get/setsockopt).
Very simply, if you use a 32-byte value, it's Base256 (binary),
and if you use a 40-byte value, it's Base85 (Z85).
I've put the Z85 codec into z85_codec.hpp, it's not elegant C++
but it is minimal and it works. Feel free to rewrap as a real class
if this annoys you.

This patch, salvaged from a trainwreck accidental merge earlier, adds a
new sockopt, ZMQ_DELAY_ATTACH_ON_CONNECT which prevents a end point
being available to push messages to until it has fully connected, making
connect work more like bind. This also applies to reconnecting sockets,
which may cause message loss of in-queue messages, so it is sensible to
use this in conjunction with a low HWM and potentially an alternative
acknowledgement path.
Notes on most of the individual commits can be found the repository log.
This patch adds a sockopt ZMQ_DELAY_ATTACH_ON_CONNECT, which if set to 1 will attempt to preempt this behavior. It does this by extending the use of the session_base to include in the outbound as well as the inbound pipe, and only associates the pipe with the socket once it receives the connected callback via a process_attach message. This works, and a test has been added to show so, but may introduce unexpected complications. The shutdown logic in this class has become marginally more awkward because of this, requiring the session to serve as the sink for both pipes if shutdown occurs with a still-connecting pipe in place. It is also possible there could be issues around flushing the messages, but as I could not directly think how to create such an issue I have not written any code with regards to that.
The documentation has been updated to reflect the change, but please do check over the code and test and review.
The current ZMQ_MONITOR code does not compile in gcc 4.7, as -pedantic
and -Werror are enabled, and ISO C++ doesn't allow casting between
normal pointers (void*) and function pointers, as pedantically their
size could be different. This caused the library not compilable. This
commit workaround the problem by introducing one more indirection, i.e.
instead of calling
(void *)listener
which is an error, we have to use
*(void **)&listener
which is an undefined behavior :) but works on most platforms
Also, `optval_ = monitor` will not set the parameter in getsockopt(),
and the extra casting caused the LHS to be an rvalue which again makes
the code not compilable. The proper way is to pass a pointer of function
pointer and assign with indirection, i.e. `*optval_ = monitor`.
Also, fixed an asciidoc error in zmq_getsockopt.txt because the `~~~~`
is too long.
This patch is meant to prevent users from running out of memory
when using 0MQ in the default configuration.

The filtering is now done depending on the socket type. SUB socket
filters the messages (end-to-end filtering) while XSUB relies
on upstream nodes to do (imprefect) filtering.
