On BSD-like platforms, EADDRINUSE is returned by the bind() system call.
On other platforms, it's returned by the listen() system call.
In other words, some platforms are 'first to bind wins', others are
'first to listen wins' - but only with TCP sockets: UNIX domain sockets
always return EADDRINUSE from the bind() system call, UDP sockets don't
call listen() in the first place.

* these functions set the SO_REUSEADDR and SO_REUSEPORT socket flags,
* what the effect of those flags is, and
* that we may remove it someday
This means we no longer have to strip the high bit from the process exit
code on Windows, which is problematic because an unhandled SEH exception
can make a process exit with a status code that has the high bit set.
It seems that number of simultaneously opened FSEventStreams is
limited on OSX (i.e. you can have only fixed number of them on
one running system), getting past through this limit will cause
`FSEventStreamCreate` to return false and write following message
to stderr:
(CarbonCore.framework) FSEventStreamStart: register_with_server:
ERROR: f2d_register_rpc() => (null) (-21)
To prevent this, we must use only one shared FSEventStream with a
paths for all uv_fsevent_t handles, and then filter out events for
each handle using this paths again.

Change the uv_fs_write() prototype so the 'buf' argument is now
`const void*` rather than `void*`.
The argument is stored in a non-const field in the uv_fs_t but that's
inconsequential because the memory it points to is not touched.
Make it possible for the libuv user to handle out of memory conditions
gracefully. When alloc_cb() returns a buffer with len==0, call the read
or recv callback with nread=UV_ENOBUFS. It's up to the user to stop or
close the handle.
Fixes#752.
Before this commit, uv_fs_chown() and uv_fs_fchown() took the uid and
gid as signed integers which is wrong because uid_t and gid_t are
unsigned on most all platforms and IDs that don't fit in a signed
integer do exist.
This is not an ABI change because the size of the uid and gid arguments
do not change, only their sign.
On Windows, uv_uid_t and uv_gid_t are typedef'd as unsigned char for
reasons that are unclear. It doesn't matter: they get cast to ints when
used as function arguments. The arguments themselves are unused.
Partial fix for joyent/node#5890.
This commit changes the libuv API to return error codes directly rather
than storing them in a loop-global field.
A code snippet like this one:
if (uv_foo(loop) < 0) {
uv_err_t err = uv_last_error(loop);
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
}
Should be rewritten like this:
int err = uv_foo(loop);
if (err < 0)
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
The rationale for this change is that it should make creating bindings
for other languages a lot easier: dealing with struct return values is
painful with most FFIs and often downright buggy.
Switch to the build tool everyone loves to hate. The Makefile has
served us well over the years but it's been acquiring more and more
features that autotools gives us for free, like easy static+shared
library building, sane install targets, and so on.
This commit drops MinGW support. If there is demand for it, we'll
re-add it.
This patch adds the `uv_stream_set_blocking` API which makes all
uv_write calls to that stream blocking. It currently only works for
pipes, on windows.
Tested most of my compilation in the previous patch on NodeJS
and extracted the patches from there. This patch ensures libuv
will be capable of building standalone as well, both with gyp
and Makefiles.
Build documentation was added to the README.md file.
Some tests are failing, and I have not heavily investigated
the reasons. The failures are generally on errors, and are
likely related to differences between fully POSIX-compatible
systems and android.
We use GetQueuedCompletionStatus(Ex) to sleep the thread until the next
timer expires (provided that no other events happen before that).
However after waking up from a sleep the GetTickCount() return value may
not immediately reflect that some time has passed. This happens because
gqcs can sometimes sleep for periods shorter than the GetTickCount clock
resulution. This patch changes time tracking so the amount of time
waited by gqcs is taken into account.
This has the following advantages:
* Excessive loop iterations are avoided.
* Small timeouts are fired more precisely.
* The `loop-stop` test that used to be flaky on Windows now passes
consistently.
Include the netmask when returning information about the OS network
interfaces.
This commit provides implementations for windows and those unix
platforms using getifaddrs().
AIX was not implemented because it requires the use of ioctls and I do
not have an AIX development/test environment. The windows code was
developed using mingw on winxp as I do not have access to visual studio.
Tested on darwin (ipv4/ipv6) and winxp (ipv4 only). Needs testing on
newer windows using ipv6 and other unix platforms.
On Unix, uv_udp_open can be used with any socket as long as the socket
follows the datagram contract (works in unconnected mode, supports
sendmsg()/recvmsg(), etc.). This means that any datagram-socket, like
for example netlink or raw sockets, can be used with libuv. Added this
information to the documentation.
Fixes the following warning:
include/uv.h:236:30: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function
return type [-Wignored-qualifiers]
UV_EXTERN const unsigned int uv_version(void);
Generate the members of the uv_any_handle and uv_any_req unions with
the UV_HANDLE_TYPE_MAP and UV_REQ_TYPE_MAP macros. Eases maintenance
when new handle or request types are added.
Inverts the meaning of the 'enable' argument. Before, it actually set
the UV_TCP_SINGLE_ACCEPT flag when enable=1. Now it clears it, which is
what uv-win does and what you would expect it to do.
Make the statbuf field public. This means you no longer have to use
req->ptr - though that still works and will continue to work for the
foreseeable future.
Fixes#704.
This changes the prototype of uv_run() from:
int uv_run(uv_loop_t* loop);
To:
int uv_run(uv_loop_t* loop, uv_run_mode mode);
Where `mode` is UV_RUN_DEFAULT, UV_RUN_ONCE or UV_RUN_NOWAIT.
Fixes#683.
Allows for running the event loop in 3 modes:
* default: loop runs until the refcount drops to zero
* once: poll for events only once and block until one is handled
* nowait: poll for events only once but don't block if there are
no pending events
Bert Belder informs me the current approach where a request is immediately
cancelled, is impossible to implement on Windows.
Rework the API to always invoke the "done" callback with an UV_ECANCELED error
code.
kqueue(2) on osx doesn't work (emits EINVAL error) with specific fds
(i.e. /dev/tty, /dev/null, etc). When given such descriptors - start
select(2) watcher thread that will emit io events.
This can be used in conjuction with uv_run_once() to poll in one thread and run
the event loop's event callbacks in another.
Useful for embedding libuv's event loop in another event loop.
You can now select to build a shared object at configure time:
$ ./gyp_uv -Dcomponent=shared_library -Dlibrary=shared_library
And build it with:
$ make -C out BUILDTYPE=Debug # or BUILDTYPE=Release
Or, if you use ninja:
$ ninja -C out/Debug
This patch creates a new header - ev-proto.h - which contains all of the
protoypes for libev functions. This allows us to create a shared object of
libuv without exposing libev internal functions.
This reverts commit 5da380a5ca.
Contains a bug that effectively makes the select() thread busy-loop. The file
descriptor is polled for both reading and writing, regardless of what events
the main thread wants to receive. Fixing that requires proper synchronization
between the two threads.
See #614.
Relocate the include of TargetConditionals.h and fixe the use of
TARGET_OS_IPHONE. Furthermore, uv__fsevents_init() and uv__fsevents_close are
now empty functions for iOS, since the FSEvents API is not available there.
Guard against the possibility that the queue is emptied while we're iterating
over it. Simple test case:
#include "ngx-queue.h"
#include <assert.h>
int main(void) {
ngx_queue_t h;
ngx_queue_t v[2];
ngx_queue_t* q;
unsigned n = 0;
ngx_queue_init(&h);
ngx_queue_insert_tail(&h, v + 0);
ngx_queue_insert_tail(&h, v + 1);
ngx_queue_foreach(q, &h) {
ngx_queue_remove(v + 0);
ngx_queue_remove(v + 1);
n++;
}
assert(n == 1); // *not* 2
return 0;
}

Fixes#603.
Benchmarks demonstrated that the idle timer handle approach didn't balance the
load quite fair enough, the majority of new connections still ended up in one
or two processes.
The new approach voluntarily gives up a scheduler timeslice by calling
nanosleep() with a one nanosecond timeout.
Why not sched_yield()? Because on Linux (and this is probably true for other
Unices as well), sched_yield() only yields if there are other processes running
on the same CPU.
nanosleep() on the other hand always forces the process to sleep, which gives
other processes a chance to accept our pending connections.
Adds initial libuv build/platform support for AIX. Builds work using gcc or the
IBM XL C compiler using its gxlc wrapper. Platform support is added for
uv_hrtime, uv_exepath, uv_get_free_memory, uv_get_total_memory, uv_loadavg,
uv_uptime, uv_cpu_info, uv_interface_addresses.
Implement a best effort approach to mitigating accept() EMFILE errors.
We have a spare file descriptor stashed away that we close to get below
the EMFILE limit. Next, we accept all pending connections and close them
immediately to signal the clients that we're overloaded - and we are, but
we still keep on trucking.
There is one caveat: it's not reliable in a multi-threaded environment.
The file descriptor limit is per process. Our party trick fails if another
thread opens a file or creates a socket in the time window between us
calling close() and accept().
Fixes#315.
kqueue(2) on osx doesn't work (emits EINVAL error) with specific fds
(i.e. /dev/tty, /dev/null, etc). When given such descriptors - start
select(2) watcher thread that will emit io events.
uv_fs_poll_t has an embedded uv_timer_t handle that got closed at a time when
the memory of the encapsulating handle might already have been deallocated.
Solve that by moving the poller's state into a structure that is allocated on
the heap and can be freed independently.
Readable tty handles need to be able to update the virtual window,
so if uv_tty_t is initialized with a console input fd, additionally
open the console output.
Formerly spawn errors would be reported as a message printed to the
process' stderr, to match unix behaviour. Unix has now been fixed to
be more sensible, so this hack can now be removed.
This also fixes a race condition that could occur when the user closes
a process handle before the exit callback has been made.
OS X has no public API for fdatasync. And as pointed out in `man fsync(2)`:
For applications that require tighter guarantees about the integrity of
their data, Mac OS X provides the F_FULLFSYNC fcntl. The F_FULLFSYNC
fcntl asks the drive to flush all buffered data to permanent storage.
Applications, such as databases, that require a strict ordering of writes
should use F_FULLFSYNC to ensure that their data is written in the order
they expect. Please see fcntl(2) for more detail.
The Sun Studio compiler did not define any of the symbols used to determine if
the system was a unix-like system or not causing it to include the windows
header.
Problem: registering two uv_fs_event_t watchers for the same path, then closing
them, caused a segmentation fault. While active, the watchers didn't work right
either, only one would receive events.
Cause: each watcher has a wd (watch descriptor) that's used as its key in a
binary tree. When you call inotify_watch_add() twice with the same path, the
second call doesn't return a new wd - it returns the existing one. That in turn
resulted in the first handle getting ousted from the binary tree, leaving
dangling pointers.
This commit addresses that by storing the watchers in a queue and storing the
queue in the binary tree instead of storing the watchers directly in the tree.

Previously the only option was to create a pipe or an ipc channel. This
patch makes it possible to inherit a handle that is already open in the
parent process. There is also room for setting more than just stdin,
stdout and stderr, although this is not supported yet.
Makes the uv__io code a little more obscure but has the advantage that
sizeof(uv__io_t) == sizeof(ev_io), i.e. the sizes of embedding handles
don't change.
The new idle watcher was temporarily disabled in 073a48d due to some semantic
incompatibilities with the previous implementation. This commit resolves those
issues and reactivates the new implementation.
One outstanding bug is that idle watchers can run in a different order
(relative to other handle types) than the old implementation, e.g. (timer, idle)
instead of the expected (idle, timer). This will be fixed in an upcoming commit.
This commit changes how the event loop determines if it needs to stay alive.
Previously, an internal counter was increased whenever a handle got created
and decreased again when the handle was closed.
While conceptually simple, it turned out hard to work with: you often want
to keep the event loop alive only if the handle is actually doing something.
Stopped or inactive handles were a frequent source of hanging event loops.
That's why this commit changes the reference counting scheme to a model where
a handle only references the event loop when it's active. 'Active' means
different things for different handle types, e.g.:
* timers: ticking
* sockets: reading, writing or listening
* processes: always active (for now, subject to change)
* idle, check, prepare: only active when started
This commit also changes how the uv_ref() and uv_unref() functions work: they
now operate on the level of individual handles, not the whole event loop.
The Windows implementation was done by Bert Belder.
Instead of using one port per watch, use one port for all the watches.

Remove the next_watcher and replace it with a linked list. Said list is named
endgame_handles (because the uv-win calls it that) and contains all the handles
that are in the UV_CLOSING state.

b) share more code with uv-win in the future
A nice side effect is that it shaves a few bytes off a uv_handle_t.
