Trigger names cannot exceed 11 characters on OS X, so the new "config_change" trigger
has been renamed to "conf_change" and the "config_change_log" trigger has been renamed
to "conf_log".
swiftc(1) requires every -D option to be prefixed with -Xcc, which
is not easy to achieve using autoconf.
Now instead of setting configuration macros like HAVE_LSEEK64 on the
command line using -D, they are defined in config.h, which is generated
by ./configure, ignored by Git, and included by all headers and source
files that use any configuration macro.
The dependency on Makefile has been replaced with a dependency on
Makefile.in and config.h, which helps avoid some redundant full
recompiles after running ./configure, because the configure script
does not overwrit config.h if its content does not change.
Recent changes such as the Makefile.in overhaul and the introduction of
feature-driven linking broke the Android build. This commit fixes the
breakage:
- detects the presence of gettid() in configure.ac and only defines
gettid() in serval.c if HAVE_GETTID is not defined
- builds libserval.so not libservald.so on Android, to avoid a conflict
on the module name "servald" in Android.mk
- renames cli_cleanup() to command_cleanup(), defines it in
commandline.h instead of cli.h, and supplies it in android.c
- supplies the 'keyring' global in android.c
- removes log_stderr.c from the Android build, since it conflicted with
log.c
During the brief interval between a server creating its pidfile and
locking it, the pidfile could be removed by another process that
detected it as stale. This caused a non-deterministic failure of the
server/StartTwice test case.
To fix this race, the server now creates and locks a temporary pidfile
which it then hard-links to the real pidfile, guaranteeing that the
pidfile is already locked in the instant that it appears. This means
that an unlocked pidfile is guaranteed to be stale, not just in the
process of creation, so can be safely unlinked by any other process.
This introduces a new way of linking Serval executables and dynamic
libraries from static libraries like libservald.a -- called
"feature-driven" linking.
The Makefile now links servald and serval-tests from libservald.a,
rather than from an explicit list of object (.o) files. Thanks to the
section-based method for registering functions such as HTTP handlers,
CLI commands and MDP handlers, these object files had become
"stand-alone" and hence were no longer included in the link because
there was no unresolved reference that required them to be linked in.
The new "feature.h" provides the DECLARE_FEATURE(name) macro that each
stand-alone source file uses to declare the named feature(s) it
provides. Each executable can call the USE_FEATURE(name) macro in any
of its explicitly-linked source files to cause the corresponding
object(s) to be included in the link, eg, servald_features.c.
The DEFINE_BINDING() macro has been extended so that every individual
MDP binding is given a feature name based on its port number macro, eg,
"mdp_binding_MDP_PORT_ECHO".
Some features have been factored into their own separate source files so
they can be omitted or included in a build independently of each other:
- the MDP bindings for MDP_PORT_DNALOOKUP, MDP_PORT_ECHO,
MDP_PORT_TRACE, MDP_PORT_KEYMAPREQUEST, MDP_PORT_RHIZOME_xxx,
MDP_PORT_PROBE, MDP_PORT_STUN, MDP_PORT_STUNREQ
- the CLI "log" and "echo" commands
- the CLI "rhizome direct" command
The JNI source files are only compiled if the <jni.h> header is present,
otherwise they are omitted from libservald.so.
This is required to support feature-driven linking, in which the exact
list of which functions to call in response to a configuration re-load
is not known until link time.
The "config_change_log" trigger is called before "config_change", so
that the logger can respond to the change before other subsystems.
The CLI and server main loop now have no conditional JNI code. All JNI
code has been moved into separate source files, which #include the new
"jni_common.h" instead of <jni.h>. The "cli.h" header no longer
includes <jni.h>, so the rest of the Serval source code is now
unaffected by JNI definitions.
The 'cf_limbo' global variable is now thread-local, so that each thread
has its own independent copy of the loaded configuration. The JNI
server entry point now calls cf_init() once. The new 'cf_initialised'
flag prevents clobbering the config state by redundant calls to
cf_init().
The CLI "stop" command now sends SIGHUP to the specific thread in which
the server is running. This is achieved by writing the PID and TID
(Linux Thread ID) into the pidfile, separated by a space, on systems
that support the Linux gettid() and tgkill() system calls. The server's
signal handler has been overhauled, and its logging improved.
Original DEBUG() and DEBUGF() macros renamed to _DEBUG() and _DEBUGF()
New DEBUG() and DEBUGF() macros, first argument is flagname
New DEBUGF2(foo, bar, ...) macro does if(config.debug.foo||config.debug.bar) test
Replace almost all config.debug.xxx references to IF_DEBUG(xxx)
fdpoll will now run a callback when about to sleep / woke up.
A new Java interface to indicate server started / sleeping / waking up.
An android implementation may allow the CPU to sleep.
If there's a java exception the server will try to shutdown.
Calling servald stop is currently undefined.
