From autoconf manual, section 5.6.1 Portability of Headers, says:
"""
The C99 standard says that inttypes.h includes stdint.h, so there's no
need to include stdint.h separately in a standard environment. Some
implementations have inttypes.h but not stdint.h (e.g., Solaris 7),
but we don't know of any implementation that has stdint.h but not
inttypes.h.
"""
It is not used by library for a while. It could be used to pass
unsupported extension frames to application, but its interface
requires library to buffer entire frame, which we'd like to avoid.
For unsupported extension frames, we will add new callbacks which does
not require buffering if they are required.
h2-14 now allows extensions to define new error codes. To allow
application callback to access such error codes, we uses uint32_t as
error_code type for structs and function parameters. Previously we
treated unknown error code as INTERNAL_ERROR, but this change removes
this and unknown error code is passed to application callback as is.
Currently, nghttpd server only compresses files whose extensions are
one of .html, .js, .css and .txt. nghttp advertises its support of
per-frame compression in SETTINGS frame. To implement this feature,
we added 2 public API: nghttp2_session_get_remote_settings() and
nghttp2_gzip_inflate_finished().
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.
Now, in nghttp2_on_frame_recv_callback, nva and nvlen in
HEADERS and PUSH_PROMISE frames are always NULL and 0 respectively.
The header name/value pairs are emitted successive
nghttp2_on_header_callback functions. The end of header fields are
signaled with nghttp2_on_end_headers_callback function.
Since NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE for nghttp2_on_frame_recv_callback is
introduced to handle header block, it is now deprecated.
Instead, nghttp2_on_header_callback can be paused using
NGHTTP2_ERR_PAUSE.
