Add last_stream_id parameter to nghttp2_submit_goaway(). To terminate
connection immediately with application chosen last stream ID,
nghttp2_session_terminate_session2() was added.
ALTSVC and BLOCKED frames are now extension frames. To add new
extension frame without modifying nghttp2_frame union, which causes so
name bump, we separated extension frames from core frames.
nghttp2_frame includes generic nghttp2_extension. The payload member
of nghttp2_extension will point to the structure of extension frame
payload. The frame types of extension frames are defined in
nghttp2_ext_frame_type.
Previously stream ID was assigned just before HEADERS or PUSH_PROMISE
was serialized and nghttp2_submit_{request, headers, push_promise} did
not return stream ID. The application has to check assigned stream ID
using before_frame_send_callback. Now it is apparent that priority is
meant to DATA transfer only. Also application can reorder the
requests if it wants. Therefore we can assign stream ID in
nghttp2_submit_* functions and return stream ID from them. With this
change, now application does not have to check stream ID using
before_frame_send_callback and its code will be simplified.
nghttp2_submit_{headers,request}: Return NGHTTP2_ERR_INVAILD_ARGUMENT
if pri_spec->type is invalid.
nghttp2_submit_push_promise: Return NGHTTP2_ERR_PROTO if issued by
client.
nghttp2_submit_altsvc: Return NGHTTP2_ERR_PROTO instead of
NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_STATE if issued by client.
nghttp2_data is added to nghttp2_frame union. When DATA is
received, nghttp2_on_frame_recv_callback is called. When DATA is
sent, nghttp2_on_frame_send_callback is called.
Remove the check to see that stream exists at the time when submitting
DATA, PRIORITY and WINDOW_UPDATE. We will do this check when we actually
serialize and send them off to the network (or application provided
buffer).
nghttp2 library itself now accept octet header/value pairs,
completely not restricted by HTTP/1 header name/value rule.
The applications may impose restriction about them using
validators.
Previously we use largest stream ID received so far as last-stream-ID,
and it is irrevant that it is passed to the callback (thus upper layer).
Now the stream ID which is passed to callback is eligible to
last-stream-ID.
This function is similar to nghttp2_submit_request and the
difference is it takes an array of nghttp2_nv as name/value pairs.
It is useful if name/value pairs is not NULL-terminated in the
application code.
Now NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_WINDOW_UPDATE is split into 2 options:
NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_STREAM_WINDOW_UPDATE and
NGHTTP2_OPT_NO_AUTO_CONNECTION_WINDOW_UPDATE.
This is preparation for the upcoming removal of END_FLOW_CONTROL
flag. For nghttpx, instead of using END_FLOW_CONTROL to disable
connection-level flow control, increase window size by large
enough value, which is friendly way to current chromium
implementation.
