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.
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.
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)
New UNUSED(param) macro suppresses the warning for a specific parameter
In some cases, removed the unused parameters. In others, used the
parameter in a DEBUGF() or assert() statement to document the intent.
So that "http_server.h" does not have to include "serval.h" which
creates a circular dependency.
Remove the __SERVALDNA__HTTP_SERVER_IMPLEMENTATION hack from
"http_server.h"
Change a test case: configuration options are now case sensitive.
Fix config file load and parse logic in conf.c, always copy 'debug' flags
from config.debug.
The config schema 'interfaces' option is no longer MANDATORY.
Introduce new CLIFLAG_PERMISSIVE_CONFIG to supress bad-config ERROR messages
from the 'config set' and 'config get' commands.
Refactor cli_execute() into cli_parse() and cli_invoke(). Use *const* struct
command_line_option everywhere.
