Introduces a few new api functions:
- kore_websocket_handshake(struct http_request *):
Performs the handshake on an HTTP request (coming from page handler)
- kore_websocket_send(struct connection *, u_int8_t, void *, size_t):
Sends data to a websocket connection.
- kore_websocket_broadcast(struct connection *, u_int8_t, void *, size_t, int):
Broadcast the given websocket op and data to all connected
websocket clients on the worker. Note that as of right now
the WEBSOCKET_BROADCAST_GLOBAL scope option does not work
yet and messages broadcasted will be restricted to workers
only.
- kore_worker_websocket_broadcast(struct connection *, void *, void *):
Backend function used by kore_websocket_broadcast().
Could prove useful for developers to have access to.
A simple example is given under examples/websocket.
Known issues:
Kore does not support PING or CONT frames just yet.
Allow Kore to use per domain CRLs when requiring client certificates.
The require_client_cert configuration option has been renamed to a more
sane client_certificates and can optionally take a second argument
which is the CRL in pem format.
You'll need a restart in case the CRLs get updated.
This commit renames certain POST centric variable and configuration
naming to the correct HTTP body stuff.
API changes include http_postbody_text() and http_postbody_bytes() to
have become http_body_text() and http_body_bytes().
The developer is still responsible for validating the method their
page handler is called with. Hopefully this becomes a configuration
option soon enough.
After revisiting why this exists in Kore I decided it
does not belong in this platform and instead of letting
it sit there staring at me I rather just kill it.
Personally use this for testing Kore its performance without
letting the OpenSSL stack get in the way too much.
Note that it leaves data structures as is, and just removes
any calls to OpenSSL (and removes the linking vs OpenSSL).
Using authentication blocks one can define "authentication" mechanisms
in Kore for page handlers.
This can be used to require a session cookie (validated by your own validator)
for certain page handlers, and hopefully in the future provide a framework
for adding more authentication things (like HTTP Auth).
Right now only cookie checking is available.
Example:
validator v_id function v_id_function
validator v_url regex ^/url/path/[a-z]*$
You can then call these using kore_validator_run(char *, char *), example:
if (!kore_validator_run("v_url", req->path))
[req->path is bad];
Allows you to configure maximum amount of seconds an HTTP connection
can stay open (does not affect SPDY connections). If set to 0 it will
disable keep-alive all together.
Add some inttypes fluff.
If enabled Kore adds the HSTS header to every response.
- Additionally, fix some typos in the example configuration.
- Change default SSL cipher list again, no more RC4 and almost PFS for all browsers.
- http_header_max:
Maximum size of HTTP headers (in non SPDY connections).
- http_postbody_max:
Maximum size of an HTTP POST body (both in SPDY and HTTP mode).
Right now Kore will simply DC the client, ideally we want to send
a 413 (entity too large) to the client however.
See modules/examples/module.conf for more.
- Introduce own memory management system on top of malloc to keep track
of all our allocations and free's. Later we should introduce a pooling
mechanism for fixed size allocations (http_request comes to mind).
- Introduce ssl_cipher in configuration.
Memory usage is kind of high right now, but it seems its OpenSSL
doing it rather then Kore.
new connections and which ones will not be notified for it.
Fixes the thundering herd problem, and nicely spreads out load between
all the workers equally. A configuration option (workers_max_connections)
is available to tweak how many connections a worker will have before
giving up the accept lock.
Two ways are added to this commit for access locking:
- Locking via semaphores.
- Locking via GCC's builtin atomic methods.
The default is running with semaphores disabled (OpenBSD cannot do
sem_init() with pshared set to 1, which is required).
If you want to use semaphores add KORE_USE_SEMAPHORES to CFLAGS,
and -lpthread to LDFLAGS in the Makefile.
Other fixes:
- BSD: add a timeout to kevent().
- Merge kore_worker_wait together, linux knows waitpid() as well.
- Send the correct SIGQUIT signal to workers instead of SIGINT.
- Fix kore_time_ms().
- Log fatal worker messages in syslog.
- Refactor code even more.
- Do not free our own kore_worker structure.
static / serve_index
static /foo serve_foo
dynamic / serve_other
/ will be matched to serve_index, while /foo will be matched to serve_foo and /bar will be matched to serve_other for example.
