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.
Fixes#684.

Fixes#684.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
Detaching doesn't work yet, the setsid() call fails and leaves the child process
attached to the parent's session.
Revert "test: Add test case for spawning detached child processes."
Revert "win: Implement options.detached for uv_spawn() for Windows."
Revert "unix: Implement options.detached for uv_spawn() for unix."
Revert "Add "detached" member to uv_process_options_t to denote whether a child
process should spawn detached from its parent."

Previously, a new inotify fd was created for each watcher, making it quite easy
to run into the system-wide fs.inotify.max_user_instances limit (usually 128).

Not needed anymore now that support for isolates has been removed from Node.
This commit reverts the following commits:

Only export symbols that are part of the libuv API, hide everything else.
Prevents symbol clashes in applications and libraries that depend on libuv and
speeds up link times to boot.
Read/write locks are emulated with critical sections on Windows XP and Vista
because those platforms don't have a (complete) native read/write lock API.
This patch also fixes#155. Since we no longer
memset clear the uv_getaddrinfo_t, the user can
now set the `uv_getaddrinfo_t->data` field without
problems.
