This allows the output fields of any command to contain nul characters, which
paves the way for extracting a manifest or other binary data directly instead
of having to write it into a temporary file.
Move lots of non-Serval-specific string functions from "serval.h"/dataformats.c
to "str.h"/str.c.
Add str_fromprint() function that reverses the effect of toprint(): interprets
escape sequences in the source string "\n\t\r\0\xHH\\" and replaces them with a
single char in the destination string.
- close database after every command line operation
- don't cache rhizome enabled configuration
- don't send advertisements unless the database is open and the web server is running
- don't provess advertisements unless the database is open
Replace the main-loop scheduled periodic alarm with an "activate" alarm that is
scheduled whenever a fetch candidate is added to any queue, unless the alarm is
already scheduled.
Replace the "rhizome.fetch_interval_ms" config item with
"rhizome.fetch_delay_ms" [default 50], which is the number of milliseconds
between adding a fetch candidate and firing the "activate" alarm. This allows
time for a few more Rhizome advertisment packets to arrive after the first one,
before deciding which fetches to start first.
Add new `is_scheduled()` alarm primitive.
Overhauled the file fetch queue logic in rhizome_fetch.c.
Now the 'rhizomeprotocol' stress test passes in approximately 5 minutes on my
2009-vintage Dell laptop.
Added a call to rhizome_enqueue_suggestions() in rhizome_fetch_close() so that
a new Rhizome GET request is sent as soon as a fetch slot becomes free, instead
of waiting for the (default 5 second) timer to trigger the next GET.
type on next use (so that people upgrading automatically get a new valid
SAS instead of continuing to try to use an invalid one -- this is only
a reasonable course of action since we have made no formal releases of
the code). #17
as recommended a while back by Dan Bernstein as offering the fastest
implementation of the crypto_sign() primitives for ARM.
Indeed this implementation IS faster. See comparison below for a
Rock 500 handset (800MHz(?) ARM6, no NEON):
Original ref/ implementation on an R500 stock rom (non-rooted)::
mean signature generation time = 96.80ms
mean signature verification time = 272.20ms
ref10/ implementations on an R500 stock rom (non-rooted):
mean signature generation time = 4.00ms
mean signature verification time = 13.00ms
Approximately 20x speed up, just like that :)
