To make it possible to add new callbacks without bumping so name, we
decided to hide details of nghttp2_session_callbacks. We provide
setter like functions to set individual callback function.
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.
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.
We inherited gzip compression API from spdylay codebase. In spdylay,
the cost of having such API is almost free because spdylay requires
zlib for header compression. nghttp2 no longer uses gzip to header
compression. zlib dependency exists just for gzip compression API,
which is not an essential. So we decided to move gzip code to under
src and remove zlib dependency from libnghttp2 itself. As nghttp2
package, we depend on zlib to compile tools under src.
NGHTTP2_CLIENT_CONNECTION_PREFACE has the same content with
NGHTTP2_CLIENT_CONNECTION_HEADER, which is now obsoleted by
NGHTTP2_CLIENT_CONNECTION_PREFACE.
Previously, there is inconsistency when on_frame_recv_callback
is called between HEADERS/PUSH_PROMISE and the other frames.
For former case, it is called before header block, in latter
case, it is called after whole frame is received. To make it
consistent, we call on_frame_recv_callback for HEADERS/PUSH_PROMISE
after its frame is fully received. Since on_frame_recv_callback
can signal the end of header block, we replaced on_end_headers_callback
with on_begin_headers_callback, which is called when the reception
of the header block is started.
