Seems to have been overlooked in the reference counting refactor back
in May 2012 in commit 9efa8b3. Clarify what "active" means for
different kinds of handles.
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.
Fixes#769.
Passing or returning structs as values makes life hard for people that
work with libuv through a foreign function interface. Switch to a
pointer-based approach.

Uses the pthread_key_{create,delete} and pthread_{get,set}specific
functions on UNIX platforms, Tls{Alloc,Free} and Tls{Get,Set}Value
on Windows.
Fixes#904.
Mention that:
* 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.
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.
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.
