Solution: it's a lot of work to define the tests in project.gyp
so I did this using gsl to generate the JSON, from a small XML
list of the test cases.
To keep this, and the hundreds of .mk files, away from the root
directory, I've moved the gyp files into builds/gyp, where you
would run them.
It all seems to work now. Next up, OS/X and Windows :)
- 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
This happens if you first configure with autotools, and then run
cmake. The problem is that the compiler finds the old src/platform.hpp
before looking for the one generated by CMake. Further, there are a
set of macros that configure passes via the command line, yet CMake
passes via platform.hpp. (HAVE_xxx for pollers, at least.) This means
you can't do a CMake build using the autotools platform.hpp.
Solution: remove any src/platform.hpp when running cmake. This is a
workaround. I'll fix the inconsistent macros separately.
It's unclear which we need and in the source code, conditional code
treats tweetnacl as a subclass of libsodium, which is inaccurate.
Solution: redesign the configure/cmake API for this:
* tweetnacl is present by default and cannot be enabled
* libsodium can be enabled using --with-libsodium, which replaces
the built-in tweetnacl
* CURVE encryption can be disabled entirely using --enable-curve=no
The macros we define in platform.hpp are:
ZMQ_HAVE_CURVE 1 // When CURVE is enabled
HAVE_LIBSODIUM 1 // When we are using libsodium
HAVE_TWEETNACL 1 // When we're using tweetnacl (default)
As of this patch, the default build of libzmq always has CURVE
security, and always uses tweetnacl.
Solution: bump CMake required version to 2.8.12 to avoid:
CMake Error at tests/CMakeLists.txt:110 (target_include_directories):
Unknown CMake command "target_include_directories".
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.
This is due to the mangled include of platform.h, which was to make
CMake happy.
Solution: in CMakeLists.txt, define USING_CMAKE and then look for
platform.h in current directory if that is defined, else look in
../src/ as one would expect.
A memcpy is eliminated when receiving data on a ZMQ_STREAM socket. Instead
of receiving into a static buffer and then copying the data into the
buffer malloced in msg_t::init_size, the raw_decoder allocates the memory
for together with the reference-counter and creates a msg_t object
on top of that memory. This saves the memcpy operation.
For small messages, data is still copied and the receive buffer is reused.
Solution: increased to 4096 by default for all MSVC builds, for MinGW,
and for CMake.
Note: this is a speculative change, it needs confirmation before we
can keep it. Particularly, there is some doubt that changing this in
libzmq will affect upstream applications using libzmq.dll.
