API Reference
=============

Includes
--------

To use the public APIs, include ``nghttp2/nghttp2.h``::

    #include <nghttp2/nghttp2.h>

The header files are also available online: :doc:`nghttp2.h` and
:doc:`nghttp2ver.h`.

Remarks
-------

Do not call `nghttp2_session_send`, `nghttp2_session_recv` or
`nghttp2_session_mem_recv` from the nghttp2 callback functions
directly or indirectly. It will lead to the crash. You can submit
requests or frames in the callbacks then call `nghttp2_session_send`,
`nghttp2_session_recv` or `nghttp2_session_mem_recv` outside of the
callbacks.

.. type:: nghttp2_headers_category

    
    The category of HEADERS, which indicates the role of the frame. In
    HTTP/2.0 spec, request, response, push response and other arbitrary
    headers (e.g., trailers) are all called just HEADERS. To give the
    application the role of incoming HEADERS frame, we define several
    categories.

    .. macro:: NGHTTP2_HCAT_REQUEST

        (``0``) 
        The HEADERS frame is opening new stream, which is analogous to
        SYN_STREAM in SPDY.
    .. macro:: NGHTTP2_HCAT_RESPONSE

        (``1``) 
        The HEADERS frame is the first response headers, which is
        analogous to SYN_REPLY in SPDY.
    .. macro:: NGHTTP2_HCAT_PUSH_RESPONSE

        (``2``) 
        The HEADERS frame is the first headers sent against reserved
        stream.
    .. macro:: NGHTTP2_HCAT_HEADERS

        (``3``) 
        The HEADERS frame which does not apply for the above categories,
        which is analogous to HEADERS in SPDY.


.. type:: nghttp2_opt

    
    Configuration options for :type:`nghttp2_session`.

    .. macro:: NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_STREAM_WINDOW_UPDATE

        (``1``) 
        This option prevents the library from sending WINDOW_UPDATE for a
        stream automatically. If this option is set to nonzero, the
        library won't send WINDOW_UPDATE for a stream and the application
        is responsible for sending WINDOW_UPDATE using
        `nghttp2_submit_window_update`. By default, this option is set to
        zero.
    .. macro:: NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_CONNECTION_WINDOW_UPDATE

        (``1 << 1``) 
        This option prevents the library from sending WINDOW_UPDATE for a
        connection automatically. If this option is set to nonzero, the
        library won't send WINDOW_UPDATE for a connection and the
        application is responsible for sending WINDOW_UPDATE with stream
        ID 0 using `nghttp2_submit_window_update`. By default, this
        option is set to zero.
    .. macro:: NGHTTP2_OPT_PEER_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS

        (``1 << 2``) 
        This option sets the SETTINGS_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS value of
        remote endpoint as if it is received in SETTINGS frame. Without
        specifying this option, before the local endpoint receives
        SETTINGS_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS in SETTINGS frame from remote
        endpoint, SETTINGS_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS is unlimited. This may
        cause problem if local endpoint submits lots of requests
        initially and sending them at once to the remote peer may lead to
        the rejection of some requests. Specifying this option to the
        sensible value, say 100, may avoid this kind of issue. This value
        will be overwritten if the local endpoint receives
        SETTINGS_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS from the remote endpoint.



Types (structs, unions and typedefs)
------------------------------------
.. type:: nghttp2_session

    
    The primary structure to hold the resources needed for a HTTP/2.0
    session. The details of this structure are intentionally hidden
    from the public API.



.. type:: nghttp2_info

    
    This struct is what `nghttp2_version()` returns. It holds
    information about the particular nghttp2 version.

    .. member::   int age

        Age of this struct. This instance of nghttp2 sets it to
        :macro:`NGHTTP2_VERSION_AGE` but a future version may bump it and
        add more struct fields at the bottom
    .. member::   int version_num

        the :macro:`NGHTTP2_VERSION_NUM` number (since age ==1)
    .. member::   const char *version_str

        points to the :macro:`NGHTTP2_VERSION` string (since age ==1)
    .. member::   const char *proto_str

        points to the :macro:`NGHTTP2_PROTO_VERSION_ID` string this
        instance implements (since age ==1)


.. type:: nghttp2_nv

    
    The name/value pair, which mainly used to represent header fields.

    .. member::   uint8_t *name

        The *name* byte string, which is not necessarily ``NULL``
        terminated.
    .. member::   uint8_t *value

        The *value* byte string, which is not necessarily ``NULL``
        terminated.
    .. member::   uint16_t namelen

        The length of the *name*.
    .. member::   uint16_t valuelen

        The length of the *value*.


.. type:: nghttp2_frame_hd

    The frame header.

    .. member::   uint16_t length

        The length field of this frame, excluding frame header.
    .. member::   uint8_t type

        The type of this frame. See `nghttp2_frame`.
    .. member::   uint8_t flags

        The flags.
    .. member::   int32_t stream_id

        The stream identifier (aka, stream ID)


.. type:: nghttp2_data_source

    
    This union represents the some kind of data source passed to
    :type:`nghttp2_data_source_read_callback`.

    .. member::   int fd

        The integer field, suitable for a file descriptor.
    .. member::   void *ptr

        The pointer to an arbitrary object.


.. type:: typedef ssize_t (*nghttp2_data_source_read_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, int32_t stream_id, uint8_t *buf, size_t length, int *eof, nghttp2_data_source *source, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked when the library wants to read data from
    the *source*. The read data is sent in the stream *stream_id*. The
    implementation of this function must read at most *length* bytes of
    data from *source* (or possibly other places) and store them in
    *buf* and return number of data stored in *buf*. If EOF is reached,
    set *\*eof* to 1.  If the application wants to postpone DATA frames,
    (e.g., asynchronous I/O, or reading data blocks for long time), it
    is achieved by returning :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_DEFERRED` without
    reading any data in this invocation.  The library removes DATA
    frame from the outgoing queue temporarily.  To move back deferred
    DATA frame to outgoing queue, call `nghttp2_session_resume_data()`.
    In case of error, there are 2 choices. Returning
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_TEMPORAL_CALLBACK_FAILURE` will close the stream
    by issuing RST_STREAM with :macro:`NGHTTP2_INTERNAL_ERROR`.
    Returning :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE` will signal the
    entire session failure.

.. type:: nghttp2_data_provider

    
    This struct represents the data source and the way to read a chunk
    of data from it.

    .. member::   nghttp2_data_source source

        The data source.

        The WINDOW_UPDATE frame.


.. type:: typedef ssize_t (*nghttp2_send_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, const uint8_t *data, size_t length, int flags, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked when *session* wants to send data to the
    remote peer. The implementation of this function must send at most
    *length* bytes of data stored in *data*. The *flags* is currently
    not used and always 0. It must return the number of bytes sent if
    it succeeds.  If it cannot send any single byte without blocking,
    it must return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_WOULDBLOCK`. For other errors, it
    must return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`. The *user_data*
    pointer is the third argument passed in to the call to
    `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.

.. type:: typedef ssize_t (*nghttp2_recv_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t *buf, size_t length, int flags, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked when *session* wants to receive data from
    the remote peer. The implementation of this function must read at
    most *length* bytes of data and store it in *buf*. The *flags* is
    currently not used and always 0. It must return the number of bytes
    written in *buf* if it succeeds. If it cannot read any single byte
    without blocking, it must return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_WOULDBLOCK`. If
    it gets EOF before it reads any single byte, it must return
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_EOF`. For other errors, it must return
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`. Returning 0 is treated as
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_WOULDBLOCK`. The *user_data* pointer is the
    third argument passed in to the call to
    `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_frame_recv_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, const nghttp2_frame *frame, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked by `nghttp2_session_recv()` when a
    non-DATA frame is received. The *user_data* pointer is the third
    argument passed in to the call to `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or
    `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    If the application uses `nghttp2_session_mem_recv()`, it can return
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE` to make `nghttp2_session_mem_recv()`
    return without processing further input bytes.  The *frame*
    parameter is retained until `nghttp2_session_continue()` is
    called. The application must retain the input bytes which was used
    to produce the *frame* parameter, because it may refer to the
    memory region included in the input bytes. The application which
    returns :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE` must call
    `nghttp2_session_continue()` before `nghttp2_session_mem_recv()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. It may return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE`. If the other
    nonzero value is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_invalid_frame_recv_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, const nghttp2_frame *frame, nghttp2_error_code error_code, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked by `nghttp2_session_recv()` when an
    invalid non-DATA frame is received. The *error_code* is one of the
    :macro:`nghttp2_error_code` and indicates the error. When this
    callback function is invoked, the library automatically submits
    either RST_STREAM or GOAWAY frame. The *user_data* pointer is the
    third argument passed in to the call to
    `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_data_chunk_recv_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t flags, int32_t stream_id, const uint8_t *data, size_t len, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked when a chunk of data in DATA frame is
    received. The *stream_id* is the stream ID this DATA frame belongs
    to. The *flags* is the flags of DATA frame which this data chunk is
    contained. ``(flags & NGHTTP2_FLAG_END_STREAM) != 0`` does not
    necessarily mean this chunk of data is the last one in the
    stream. You should use :type:`nghttp2_on_data_recv_callback` to
    know all data frames are received. The *user_data* pointer is the
    third argument passed in to the call to
    `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    If the application uses `nghttp2_session_mem_recv()`, it can return
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE` to make `nghttp2_session_mem_recv()`
    return without processing further input bytes.  The *frame*
    parameter is retained until `nghttp2_session_continue()` is
    called. The application must retain the input bytes which was used
    to produce the *frame* parameter, because it may refer to the
    memory region included in the input bytes. The application which
    returns :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE` must call
    `nghttp2_session_continue()` before `nghttp2_session_mem_recv()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_data_recv_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, uint16_t length, uint8_t flags, int32_t stream_id, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked when DATA frame is received. The actual
    data it contains are received by
    :type:`nghttp2_on_data_chunk_recv_callback`. The *user_data*
    pointer is the third argument passed in to the call to
    `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_before_frame_send_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, const nghttp2_frame *frame, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked before the non-DATA frame *frame* is
    sent. This may be useful, for example, to know the stream ID of
    HEADERS and PUSH_PROMISE frame (see also
    `nghttp2_session_get_stream_user_data()`), which is not assigned
    when it was queued. The *user_data* pointer is the third argument
    passed in to the call to `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or
    `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_frame_send_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, const nghttp2_frame *frame, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked after the non-DATA frame *frame* is sent.
    The *user_data* pointer is the third argument passed in to the call
    to `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or
    `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_frame_not_send_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, const nghttp2_frame *frame, int lib_error_code, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked after the non-DATA frame *frame* is not
    sent because of the error. The error is indicated by the
    *lib_error_code*, which is one of the values defined in
    :type:`nghttp2_error`. The *user_data* pointer is the third
    argument passed in to the call to `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or
    `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_data_send_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, uint16_t length, uint8_t flags, int32_t stream_id, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked after DATA frame is sent. The *user_data*
    pointer is the third argument passed in to the call to
    `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_stream_close_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, int32_t stream_id, nghttp2_error_code error_code, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked when the stream *stream_id* is
    closed. The reason of closure is indicated by the *error_code*. The
    stream_user_data, which was specified in `nghttp2_submit_request()`
    or `nghttp2_submit_headers()`, is still available in this
    function. The *user_data* pointer is the third argument passed in
    to the call to `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or
    `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_request_recv_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, int32_t stream_id, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked when the request from the remote peer is
    received.  In other words, the frame with END_STREAM flag set is
    received.  In HTTP, this means HTTP request, including request
    body, is fully received. The *user_data* pointer is the third
    argument passed in to the call to `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or
    `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_frame_recv_parse_error_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, nghttp2_frame_type type, const uint8_t *head, size_t headlen, const uint8_t *payload, size_t payloadlen, int lib_error_code, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked when the received control frame octets
    could not be parsed correctly. The *type* indicates the type of
    received non-DATA frame. The *head* is the pointer to the header of
    the received frame. The *headlen* is the length of the
    *head*. According to the spec, the *headlen* is always 8. In other
    words, the *head* is the first 8 bytes of the received frame.  The
    *payload* is the pointer to the data portion of the received frame.
    The *payloadlen* is the length of the *payload*. This is the data
    after the length field. The *lib_error_code* is one of the error
    code defined in :macro:`nghttp2_error` and indicates the error. The
    *user_data* pointer is the third argument passed in to the call to
    `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

.. type:: typedef int (*nghttp2_on_unknown_frame_recv_callback) (nghttp2_session *session, const uint8_t *head, size_t headlen, const uint8_t *payload, size_t payloadlen, void *user_data)

    
    Callback function invoked when the received frame type is
    unknown. The *head* is the pointer to the header of the received
    frame. The *headlen* is the length of the *head*. According to the
    spec, the *headlen* is always 8. In other words, the *head* is the
    first 8 bytes of the received frame.  The *payload* is the pointer
    to the data portion of the received frame.  The *payloadlen* is the
    length of the *payload*. This is the data after the length
    field. The *user_data* pointer is the third argument passed in to
    the call to `nghttp2_session_client_new()` or
    `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    The implementation of this function must return 0 if it
    succeeds. If nonzero is returned, it is treated as fatal error and
    `nghttp2_session_recv()` and `nghttp2_session_send()` functions
    immediately return :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`.

Functions
---------
.. function:: int nghttp2_session_client_new(nghttp2_session **session_ptr, const nghttp2_session_callbacks *callbacks, void *user_data)

    
    Initializes *\*session_ptr* for client use. The all members of
    *callbacks* are copied to *\*session_ptr*. Therefore *\*session_ptr*
    does not store *callbacks*. *user_data* is an arbitrary user
    supplied data, which will be passed to the callback functions.
    
    The :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.send_callback` must be
    specified.  If the application code uses `nghttp2_session_recv()`,
    the :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.recv_callback` must be
    specified. The other members of *callbacks* can be ``NULL``.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_server_new(nghttp2_session **session_ptr, const nghttp2_session_callbacks *callbacks, void *user_data)

    
    Initializes *\*session_ptr* for server use. The all members of
    *callbacks* are copied to *\*session_ptr*. Therefore *\*session_ptr*
    does not store *callbacks*. *user_data* is an arbitrary user
    supplied data, which will be passed to the callback functions.
    
    The :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.send_callback` must be
    specified.  If the application code uses `nghttp2_session_recv()`,
    the :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.recv_callback` must be
    specified. The other members of *callbacks* can be ``NULL``.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_client_new2(nghttp2_session **session_ptr, const nghttp2_session_callbacks *callbacks, void *user_data, uint32_t opt_set_mask, const nghttp2_opt_set *opt_set)

    
    Like `nghttp2_session_client_new()`, but with additional options
    specified in the *opt_set*. The caller must set bitwise-OR of
    :macro:`nghttp2_opt` for given options.  For example, if it
    specifies :macro:`NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_CONNECTION_WINDOW_UPDATE` and
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_OPT_PEER_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS` in the *opt_set*,
    the *opt_set_mask* should be
    ``NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_CONNECTION_WINDOW_UPDATE |
    NGHTTP2_OPT_PEER_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS``.
    
    If the *opt_set_mask* is 0, the *opt_set* could be ``NULL`` safely
    and the call is equivalent to `nghttp2_session_client_new()`.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_server_new2(nghttp2_session **session_ptr, const nghttp2_session_callbacks *callbacks, void *user_data, uint32_t opt_set_mask, const nghttp2_opt_set *opt_set)

    
    Like `nghttp2_session_server_new()`, but with additional options
    specified in the *opt_set*. The caller must set bitwise-OR of
    :macro:`nghttp2_opt` for given options.  For example, if it
    specifies :macro:`NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_CONNECTION_WINDOW_UPDATE` and
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_OPT_PEER_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS` in the *opt_set*,
    the *opt_set_mask* should be
    ``NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_CONNECTION_WINDOW_UPDATE |
    NGHTTP2_OPT_PEER_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS``.
    
    If the *opt_set_mask* is 0, the *opt_set* could be ``NULL`` safely
    and the call is equivalent to `nghttp2_session_server_new()`.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: void nghttp2_session_del(nghttp2_session *session)

    
    Frees any resources allocated for *session*. If *session* is
    ``NULL``, this function does nothing.

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_send(nghttp2_session *session)

    
    Sends pending frames to the remote peer.
    
    This function retrieves the highest prioritized frame from the
    outbound queue and sends it to the remote peer. It does this as
    many as possible until the user callback
    :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.send_callback` returns
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_WOULDBLOCK` or the outbound queue becomes empty.
    This function calls several callback functions which are passed
    when initializing the *session*. Here is the simple time chart
    which tells when each callback is invoked:
    
    1. Get the next frame to send from outbound queue.
    2. Prepare transmission of the frame.
    3. If the control frame cannot be sent because some preconditions
       are not met (e.g., request HEADERS cannot be sent after
       GOAWAY),
       :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_frame_not_send_callback` is
       invoked. Abort the following steps.
    4. If the frame is request HEADERS, the stream is opened
       here.
    5. :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.before_frame_send_callback` is
       invoked.
    6. :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.send_callback` is invoked one
       or more times to send the frame.
    7. If the frame is a control frame,
       :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_frame_send_callback` is
       invoked.
    8. If the frame is a DATA frame,
       :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_data_send_callback` is
       invoked.
    9. If the transmission of the frame triggers closure of the stream,
       the stream is closed and
       :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_stream_close_callback` is
       invoked.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`
        The callback function failed.

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_recv(nghttp2_session *session)

    
    Receives frames from the remote peer.
    
    This function receives as many frames as possible until the user
    callback :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.recv_callback` returns
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_WOULDBLOCK`. This function calls several
    callback functions which are passed when initializing the
    *session*. Here is the simple time chart which tells when each
    callback is invoked:
    
    1. :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.recv_callback` is invoked one
       or more times to receive frame header.
    2. If the frame is DATA frame:
    
      2.1. :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.recv_callback` is invoked
           to receive DATA payload. For each chunk of data,
           :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_data_chunk_recv_callback`
           is invoked.
      2.2. If one DATA frame is completely received,
           :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_data_recv_callback` is
           invoked.  If the frame is the final frame of the request,
           :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_request_recv_callback`
           is invoked.  If the reception of the frame triggers the
           closure of the stream,
           :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_stream_close_callback`
           is invoked.
    
    3. If the frame is the control frame:
    
      3.1. :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.recv_callback` is invoked
           one or more times to receive whole frame.
      3.2. If the received frame is valid,
           :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_frame_recv_callback` is
           invoked.  If the frame is the final frame of the request,
           :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_request_recv_callback`
           is invoked.  If the reception of the frame triggers the
           closure of the stream,
           :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_stream_close_callback`
           is invoked.
      3.3. If the received frame is unpacked but is interpreted as
           invalid,
           :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_invalid_frame_recv_callback`
           is invoked.
      3.4. If the received frame could not be unpacked correctly,
           :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_frame_recv_parse_error_callback`
           is invoked.
      3.5. If the received frame type is unknown,
           :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_unknown_frame_recv_callback`
           is invoked.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_EOF`
        The remote peer did shutdown on the connection.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`
        The callback function failed.

.. function:: ssize_t nghttp2_session_mem_recv(nghttp2_session *session, const uint8_t *in, size_t inlen)

    
    Processes data *in* as an input from the remote endpoint. The
    *inlen* indicates the number of bytes in the *in*.
    
    This function behaves like `nghttp2_session_recv()` except that it
    does not use :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.recv_callback` to
    receive data; the *in* is the only data for the invocation of this
    function. If all bytes are processed, this function returns. The
    other callbacks are called in the same way as they are in
    `nghttp2_session_recv()`.
    
    In the current implementation, this function always tries to
    processes all input data unless either an error occurs or
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE` is returned from
    :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_frame_recv_callback` or
    :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_data_chunk_recv_callback`.
    If :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE` is used, the return value includes the
    number of bytes which was used to produce the data or frame for the
    callback.
    
    This function returns the number of processed bytes, or one of the
    following negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`
        The callback function failed.

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_continue(nghttp2_session *session)

    
    Perform post-processing after `nghttp2_session_mem_recv()` was
    paused by :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE` from
    :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_frame_recv_callback` or
    :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_data_chunk_recv_callback`.
    
    This function frees resources associated with paused frames.  It
    may also call additional callbacks, such as
    :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.on_stream_close_callback`.
    
    If this function succeeds, the application can call
    `nghttp2_session_mem_recv()` again.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_CALLBACK_FAILURE`
        The callback function failed.
    

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_resume_data(nghttp2_session *session, int32_t stream_id)

    
    Puts back previously deferred DATA frame in the stream *stream_id*
    to the outbound queue.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The stream does not exist or no deferred data exist.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_want_read(nghttp2_session *session)

    
    Returns nonzero value if *session* wants to receive data from the
    remote peer.
    
    If both `nghttp2_session_want_read()` and
    `nghttp2_session_want_write()` return 0, the application should
    drop the connection.

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_want_write(nghttp2_session *session)

    
    Returns nonzero value if *session* wants to send data to the remote
    peer.
    
    If both `nghttp2_session_want_read()` and
    `nghttp2_session_want_write()` return 0, the application should
    drop the connection.

.. function:: void* nghttp2_session_get_stream_user_data(nghttp2_session *session, int32_t stream_id)

    
    Returns stream_user_data for the stream *stream_id*. The
    stream_user_data is provided by `nghttp2_submit_request()` or
    `nghttp2_submit_headers()`.  If the stream is initiated by the
    remote endpoint, stream_user_data is always ``NULL``. If the stream
    is initiated by the local endpoint and ``NULL`` is given in
    `nghttp2_submit_request()` or `nghttp2_submit_headers()`, then
    this function returns ``NULL``. If the stream does not exist, this
    function returns ``NULL``.

.. function:: size_t nghttp2_session_get_outbound_queue_size(nghttp2_session *session)

    
    Returns the number of frames in the outbound queue. This does not
    include the deferred DATA frames.

.. function:: int32_t nghttp2_session_get_stream_effective_recv_data_length (nghttp2_session *session, int32_t stream_id)

    
    Returns the number of DATA payload in bytes received without
    WINDOW_UPDATE transmission for the stream *stream_id*. The local
    (receive) window size can be adjusted by
    `nghttp2_submit_window_update()`. This function takes into account
    that and returns effective data length. In particular, if the
    local window size is reduced by submitting negative
    window_size_increment with `nghttp2_submit_window_update()`, this
    function returns the number of bytes less than actually received.
    
    If flow control is disabled for that stream, this function returns
    0.
    
    This function returns -1 if it fails.

.. function:: int32_t nghttp2_session_get_stream_effective_local_window_size (nghttp2_session *session, int32_t stream_id)

    
    Returns the local (receive) window size for the stream
    *stream_id*. The local window size can be adjusted by
    `nghttp2_submit_window_update()`. This function takes into account
    that and returns effective window size.
    
    This function returns -1 if it fails.

.. function:: int32_t nghttp2_session_get_effective_recv_data_length (nghttp2_session *session)

    
    Returns the number of DATA payload in bytes received without
    WINDOW_UPDATE transmission for a connection. The local (receive)
    window size can be adjusted by
    `nghttp2_submit_window_update()`. This function takes into account
    that and returns effective data length. In particular, if the local
    window size is reduced by submitting negative window_size_increment
    with `nghttp2_submit_window_update()`, this function returns the
    number of bytes less than actually received.
    
    If flow control is disabled for a connection, this function returns
    0.
    
    This function returns -1 if it fails.

.. function:: int32_t nghttp2_session_get_effective_local_window_size (nghttp2_session *session)

    
    Returns the local (receive) window size for a connection. The local
    window size can be adjusted by
    `nghttp2_submit_window_update()`. This function takes into account
    that and returns effective window size.
    
    This function returns -1 if it fails.

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_fail_session(nghttp2_session *session, nghttp2_error_code error_code)

    
    Submits GOAWAY frame with the given *error_code*.
    
    This function should be called when the connection should be
    terminated after sending GOAWAY. If the remaining streams should be
    processed after GOAWAY, use `nghttp2_submit_goaway()` instead.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_upgrade(nghttp2_session *session, const uint8_t *settings_payload, size_t settings_payloadlen, void *stream_user_data)

    
    Performs post-process of HTTP Upgrade request. This function can be
    called from both client and server, but the behavior is very
    different in each other.
    
    If called from client side, the *settings_payload* must be the
    value sent in ``HTTP2-Settings`` header field and must be decoded
    by base64url decoder. The *settings_payloadlen* is the length of
    *settings_payload*. The *settings_payload* is unpacked and its
    setting values will be submitted using
    `nghttp2_submit_settings()`. This means that the client application
    code does not need to submit SETTINGS by itself. The stream with
    stream ID=1 is opened and the *stream_user_data* is used for its
    stream_user_data. The opened stream becomes half-closed (local)
    state.
    
    If called from server side, the *settings_payload* must be the
    value received in ``HTTP2-Settings`` header field and must be
    decoded by base64url decoder. The *settings_payloadlen* is the
    length of *settings_payload*. It is treated as if the SETTINGS
    frame with that payload is received. Thus, callback functions for
    the reception of SETTINGS frame will be invoked. The stream with
    stream ID=1 is opened. The *stream_user_data* is ignored. The
    opened stream becomes half-closed (remote).
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *settings_payload* is badly formed.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_PROTO`
        The stream ID 1 is already used or closed; or is not available;
        or the *settings_payload* does not include both
        :macro:`NGHTTP2_SETTINGS_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS` and
        :macro:`NGHTTP2_SETTINGS_INITIAL_WINDOW_SIZE`.

.. function:: ssize_t nghttp2_pack_settings_payload(uint8_t *buf, size_t buflen, const nghttp2_settings_entry *iv, size_t niv)

    
    Serializes the SETTINGS values *iv* in the *buf*. The size of the
    *buf* is specified by *buflen*. The number of entries in the *iv*
    array is given by *niv*. The required space in *buf* for the *niv*
    entries is ``8*niv`` bytes and if the given buffer is too small, an
    error is returned. This function is used mainly for creating a
    SETTINGS payload to be sent with the ``HTTP2-Settings`` header
    field in an HTTP Upgrade request. The data written in *buf* is NOT
    base64url encoded and the application is responsible for encoding.
    
    This function returns the number of bytes written in *buf*, or one
    of the following negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *iv* contains duplicate settings ID or invalid value.
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INSUFF_BUFSIZE`
        The provided *buflen* size is too small to hold the output.

.. function:: const char* nghttp2_strerror(int lib_error_code)

    
    Returns string describing the *lib_error_code*. The
    *lib_error_code* must be one of the :macro:`nghttp2_error`.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_request(nghttp2_session *session, int32_t pri, const char **nv, const nghttp2_data_provider *data_prd, void *stream_user_data)

    
    Submits HEADERS frame and optionally one or more DATA frames.
    
    The *pri* is priority of this request. 0 is the highest priority
    value and :macro:`NGHTTP2_PRI_LOWEST` is the lowest value.
    
    The *nv* contains the name/value pairs. For i >= 0, ``nv[2*i]``
    contains a pointer to the name string and ``nv[2*i+1]`` contains a
    pointer to the value string. The one beyond last value must be
    ``NULL``. That is, if the *nv* contains N name/value pairs,
    ``nv[2*N]`` must be ``NULL``.
    
    HTTP/2.0 specification has requirement about header fields in the
    request HEADERS. See the specification for more details.
    
    This function creates copies of all name/value pairs in *nv*.  It
    also lower-cases all names in *nv*.
    
    The string in *nv* must be NULL-terminated. Use
    `nghttp2_submit_request2()` if name/value pairs are not
    NULL-terminated strings.
    
    If *data_prd* is not ``NULL``, it provides data which will be sent
    in subsequent DATA frames. In this case, a method that allows
    request message bodies
    (http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html#sec9) must
    be specified with ``:method`` key in *nv* (e.g. ``POST``). This
    function does not take ownership of the *data_prd*. The function
    copies the members of the *data_prd*. If *data_prd* is ``NULL``,
    HEADERS have END_STREAM set. The *stream_user_data* is data
    associated to the stream opened by this request and can be an
    arbitrary pointer, which can be retrieved later by
    `nghttp2_session_get_stream_user_data()`.
    
    Since the library reorders the frames and tries to send the highest
    prioritized one first and the HTTP/2.0 specification requires the
    stream ID must be strictly increasing, the stream ID of this
    request cannot be known until it is about to sent.  To know the
    stream ID of the request, the application can use
    :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.before_frame_send_callback`. This
    callback is called just before the frame is sent. For HEADERS
    frame, the argument frame has the stream ID assigned. Also since
    the stream is already opened,
    `nghttp2_session_get_stream_user_data()` can be used to get
    *stream_user_data* to identify which HEADERS we are processing.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *pri* is invalid; or the *nv* includes empty name or
        ``NULL`` value.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_request2(nghttp2_session *session, int32_t pri, const nghttp2_nv *nva, size_t nvlen, const nghttp2_data_provider *data_prd, void *stream_user_data)

    
    Just like `nghttp2_submit_request()`, but this function takes the
    *nva*, which is an array of ``nghttp2_nv`` with *nvlen* elements,
    as name/value pairs. This function is useful if name/value pairs
    are not NULL-terminated strings.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *pri* is invalid; or the *nva* includes empty name or
        name which contains invalid characters.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_response(nghttp2_session *session, int32_t stream_id, const char **nv, const nghttp2_data_provider *data_prd)

    
    Submits response HEADERS frame and optionally one or more DATA
    frames against the stream *stream_id*.
    
    The *nv* contains the name/value pairs. For i >= 0, ``nv[2*i]``
    contains a pointer to the name string and ``nv[2*i+1]`` contains a
    pointer to the value string. The one beyond last value must be
    ``NULL``. That is, if the *nv* contains N name/value pairs,
    ``nv[2*N]`` must be ``NULL``.
    
    HTTP/2.0 specification has requirement about header fields in the
    response HEADERS. See the specification for more details.
    
    This function creates copies of all name/value pairs in *nv*.  It
    also lower-cases all names in *nv*.
    
    If *data_prd* is not ``NULL``, it provides data which will be sent
    in subsequent DATA frames.  This function does not take ownership
    of the *data_prd*. The function copies the members of the
    *data_prd*.  If *data_prd* is ``NULL``, HEADERS will have
    END_STREAM flag set.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *nv* includes empty name or ``NULL`` value.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_response2(nghttp2_session *session, int32_t stream_id, const nghttp2_nv *nva, size_t nvlen, const nghttp2_data_provider *data_prd)

    
    Just like `nghttp2_submit_response()`, but this function takes the
    *nva*, which is an array of ``nghttp2_nv`` with *nvlen* elements,
    as name/value pairs. This function is useful if name/value pairs
    are not NULL-terminated strings.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *pri* is invalid; or the *nva* includes empty name or
        name which contains invalid characters.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_headers(nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t flags, int32_t stream_id, int32_t pri, const char **nv, void *stream_user_data)

    
    Submits HEADERS frame. The *flags* is bitwise OR of the
    following values:
    
    * :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_END_STREAM`
    * :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_END_HEADERS`
    * :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_PRIORITY`
    
    If *flags* includes :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_END_STREAM`, this frame has
    END_STREAM flag set. The library does not support header
    continuation and the HEADERS frame always has
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_END_HEADERS` flag set regardless of the *flags*
    value.
    
    If the *stream_id* is -1, this frame is assumed as request (i.e.,
    request HEADERS frame which opens new stream). In this case, the
    actual stream ID is assigned just before the frame is sent. For
    response, specify stream ID in *stream_id*.
    
    The *pri* is priority of this request.
    
    The *nv* contains the name/value pairs. For i >= 0, ``nv[2*i]``
    contains a pointer to the name string and ``nv[2*i+1]`` contains a
    pointer to the value string. The one beyond last value must be
    ``NULL``. That is, if the *nv* contains N name/value pairs,
    ``nv[2*N]`` must be ``NULL``.
    
    This function creates copies of all name/value pairs in *nv*.  It
    also lower-cases all names in *nv*.
    
    The *stream_user_data* is a pointer to an arbitrary data which is
    associated to the stream this frame will open. Therefore it is only
    used if this frame opens streams, in other words, it changes stream
    state from idle or reserved to open.
    
    This function is low-level in a sense that the application code can
    specify flags directly. For usual HTTP request,
    `nghttp2_submit_request()` is useful.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *pri* is invalid; or the *nv* includes empty name or
        ``NULL`` value.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_data(nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t flags, int32_t stream_id, const nghttp2_data_provider *data_prd)

    
    Submits one or more DATA frames to the stream *stream_id*.  The
    data to be sent are provided by *data_prd*. If *flags* contains
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_END_STREAM`, the last DATA frame has END_STREAM
    flag set.
    
    This function does not take ownership of the *data_prd*. The
    function copies the members of the *data_prd*.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_STREAM_CLOSED`
        The stream is already closed or does not exist.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_priority(nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t flags, int32_t stream_id, int32_t pri)

    
    Submits PRIORITY frame to change the priority of stream *stream_id*
    to the priority value *pri*.
    
    The *flags* is currently ignored and should be
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_NONE`.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *pri* is negative.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_STREAM_CLOSED`
        The stream is already closed or does not exist.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_rst_stream(nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t flags, int32_t stream_id, nghttp2_error_code error_code)

    
    Submits RST_STREAM frame to cancel/reject the stream *stream_id*
    with the error code *error_code*.
    
    The *flags* is currently ignored and should be
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_NONE`.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_settings(nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t flags, const nghttp2_settings_entry *iv, size_t niv)

    
    Stores local settings and submits SETTINGS frame. The *iv* is the
    pointer to the array of :type:`nghttp2_settings_entry`. The *niv*
    indicates the number of :type:`nghttp2_settings_entry`.
    
    The *flags* is currently ignored and should be
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_NONE`.
    
    This function does not take ownership of the *iv*. This function
    copies all the elements in the *iv*.
    
    While updating individual stream's local window size, if the window
    size becomes strictly larger than NGHTTP2_MAX_WINDOW_SIZE,
    RST_STREAM is issued against such a stream.
    
    SETTINGS with :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_ACK` is automatically submitted
    by the library and application could not send it at its will.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *iv* contains invalid value (e.g., attempting to re-enable
        flow control).
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_push_promise(nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t flags, int32_t stream_id, const char **nv)

    
    Submits PUSH_PROMISE frame. The *flags* is currently ignored and
    the resulting PUSH_PROMISE frame always has
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_END_PUSH_PROMISE` flag set due to the lack of
    header continuation support in the library.
    
    The *stream_id* must be client initiated stream ID.
    
    The *nv* contains the name/value pairs. For i >= 0, ``nv[2*i]``
    contains a pointer to the name string and ``nv[2*i+1]`` contains a
    pointer to the value string. The one beyond last value must be
    ``NULL``. That is, if the *nv* contains N name/value pairs,
    ``nv[2*N]`` must be ``NULL``.
    
    This function creates copies of all name/value pairs in *nv*.  It
    also lower-cases all names in *nv*.
    
    Since the library reorders the frames and tries to send the highest
    prioritized one first and the HTTP/2.0 specification requires the
    stream ID must be strictly increasing, the promised stream ID
    cannot be known until it is about to sent.  To know the promised
    stream ID, the application can use
    :member:`nghttp2_session_callbacks.before_frame_send_callback`. This
    callback is called just before the frame is sent. For PUSH_PROMISE
    frame, the argument frame has the promised stream ID assigned.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *nv* includes empty name or ``NULL`` value.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_STREAM_CLOSED`
        The stream is already closed or does not exist.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_ping(nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t flags, uint8_t *opaque_data)

    
    Submits PING frame. You don't have to send PING back when you
    received PING frame. The library automatically submits PING frame
    in this case.
    
    The *flags* is currently ignored and should be
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_NONE`.
    
    If the *opaque_data* is non ``NULL``, then it should point to the 8
    bytes array of memory to specify opaque data to send with PING
    frame. If the *opaque_data* is ``NULL``, zero-cleared 8 bytes will
    be sent as opaque data.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_goaway(nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t flags, nghttp2_error_code error_code, uint8_t *opaque_data, size_t opaque_data_len)

    
    Submits GOAWAY frame with the error code *error_code*.
    
    The *flags* is currently ignored and should be
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_NONE`.
    
    If the *opaque_data* is not ``NULL`` and *opaque_data_len* is not
    zero, those data will be sent as additional debug data.  The
    library makes a copy of the memory region pointed by *opaque_data*
    with the length *opaque_data_len*, so the caller does not need to
    keep this memory after the return of this function. If the
    *opaque_data_len* is 0, the *opaque_data* could be ``NULL``.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_submit_window_update(nghttp2_session *session, uint8_t flags, int32_t stream_id, int32_t window_size_increment)

    
    Submits WINDOW_UPDATE frame.
    
    The *flags* is currently ignored and should be
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_FLAG_NONE`.
    
    If the *window_size_increment* is positive, the WINDOW_UPDATE with
    that value as window_size_increment is queued. If the
    *window_size_increment* is larger than the received bytes from the
    remote endpoint, the local window size is increased by that
    difference.
    
    If the *window_size_increment* is negative, the local window size
    is decreased by -*window_size_increment*.  If
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_STREAM_WINDOW_UPDATE` (or
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_CONNECTION_WINDOW_UPDATE` if *stream_id*
    is 0) is not set and the library decided that the WINDOW_UPDATE
    should be submitted, then WINDOW_UPDATE is queued with the current
    received bytes count.
    
    If the *window_size_increment* is 0, the function does nothing and
    returns 0.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_FLOW_CONTROL`
        The local window size overflow or gets negative.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_STREAM_CLOSED`
        The stream is already closed or does not exist.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: int nghttp2_nv_compare_name(const nghttp2_nv *lhs, const nghttp2_nv *rhs)

    
    Compares lhs->name with lhs->namelen bytes and rhs->name with
    rhs->namelen bytes. Returns negative integer if lhs->name is found
    to be less than rhs->name; or returns positive integer if lhs->name
    is found to be greater than rhs->name; or returns 0 otherwise.

.. function:: int nghttp2_select_next_protocol(unsigned char **out, unsigned char *outlen, const unsigned char *in, unsigned int inlen)

    
    A helper function for dealing with NPN in client side.  The *in*
    contains server's protocol in preferable order.  The format of *in*
    is length-prefixed and not null-terminated.  For example,
    ``HTTP-draft-04/2.0`` and ``http/1.1`` stored in *in* like this::
    
        in[0] = 17
        in[1..17] = "HTTP-draft-04/2.0"
        in[18] = 8
        in[19..26] = "http/1.1"
        inlen = 27
    
    The selection algorithm is as follows:
    
    1. If server's list contains ``HTTP-draft-04/2.0``, it is selected
       and returns 1. The following step is not taken.
    
    2. If server's list contains ``http/1.1``, this function selects
       ``http/1.1`` and returns 0. The following step is not taken.
    
    3. This function selects nothing and returns -1. (So called
       non-overlap case). In this case, *out* and *outlen* are left
       untouched.
    
    Selecting ``HTTP-draft-04/2.0`` means that ``HTTP-draft-04/2.0`` is
    written into *\*out* and its length (which is 17) is
    assigned to *\*outlen*.
    
    See http://technotes.googlecode.com/git/nextprotoneg.html for more
    details about NPN.
    
    To use this method you should do something like::
    
        static int select_next_proto_cb(SSL* ssl,
                                        unsigned char **out,
                                        unsigned char *outlen,
                                        const unsigned char *in,
                                        unsigned int inlen,
                                        void *arg)
        {
            int rv;
            rv = nghttp2_select_next_protocol(out, outlen, in, inlen);
            if(rv == 1) {
                ((MyType*)arg)->http2_selected = 1;
            }
            return SSL_TLSEXT_ERR_OK;
        }
        ...
        SSL_CTX_set_next_proto_select_cb(ssl_ctx, select_next_proto_cb, my_obj);
    
    Note that the HTTP/2.0 spec does use ALPN instead of NPN. This
    function is provided for transitional period before ALPN is got
    implemented in major SSL/TLS libraries.
    

.. function:: int nghttp2_gzip_inflate_new(nghttp2_gzip **inflater_ptr)

    
    A helper function to set up a per request gzip stream to inflate data.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_GZIP`
        The initialization of gzip stream failed.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.

.. function:: void nghttp2_gzip_inflate_del(nghttp2_gzip *inflater)

    
    Frees the inflate stream.  The *inflater* may be ``NULL``.

.. function:: int nghttp2_gzip_inflate(nghttp2_gzip *inflater, uint8_t *out, size_t *outlen_ptr, const uint8_t *in, size_t *inlen_ptr)

    
    Inflates data in *in* with the length *\*inlen_ptr* and stores the
    inflated data to *out* which has allocated size at least
    *\*outlen_ptr*. On return, *\*outlen_ptr* is updated to represent
    the number of data written in *out*.  Similarly, *\*inlen_ptr* is
    updated to represent the number of input bytes processed.
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_GZIP`
        The inflation of gzip stream failed.
    
    The example follows::
    
        void on_data_chunk_recv_callback(nghttp2_session *session,
                                         uint8_t flags,
                                         int32_t stream_id,
                                         const uint8_t *data, size_t len,
                                         void *user_data)
        {
            ...
            req = nghttp2_session_get_stream_user_data(session, stream_id);
            nghttp2_gzip *inflater = req->inflater;
            while(len > 0) {
                uint8_t out[MAX_OUTLEN];
                size_t outlen = MAX_OUTLEN;
                size_t tlen = len;
                int rv;
                rv = nghttp2_gzip_inflate(inflater, out, &outlen, data, &tlen);
                if(rv != 0) {
                    nghttp2_submit_rst_stream(session, stream_id,
                                              NGHTTP2_INTERNAL_ERROR);
                    break;
                }
                ... Do stuff ...
                data += tlen;
                len -= tlen;
            }
            ....
        }

.. function:: nghttp2_info *nghttp2_version(int least_version)

    
    Returns a pointer to a nghttp2_info struct with version information about
    the run-time library in use.  The *least_version* argument can be set to a
    24 bit numerical value for the least accepted version number and if the
    condition is not met, this function will return a NULL. Pass in 0 to skip
    the version checking.
