Initially, we use nghttp2_stream.data_item to refer only item with
DATA frame. But recently we use it to refer HEADERS frame as well.
So it is better to call just item rather than data_item. This applies
to all related functions.
We make following HEADERS under priority control:
* push response HEADERS
* HEADERS submitted by nghttp2_submit_response
Currently, HEADERS submitted by nghttp2_submit_headers is not attached
to stream. This is because it may be used as non-final response
header and application may submit final response using
nghttp2_submit_response without checking non-final response header
transmission.
Allowing PRIORITY frame at anytime so that PRIORITY frame to idle
stream can create anchor node in dependency tree. In this change, we
open stream with new NGHTTP2_STREAM_IDLE state, which is linked in
session->closed_stream_head and is treated as if it is closed stream.
One difference is that if the stream is opened, we remove it from
linked list and change the state to the appropriate one. To O(1)
removal from linked list, we change session->closed_stream_head to
doubly linked list.
This also means that at least one stream whose dpri is
NGHTTP2_STREAM_DPRI_TOP exists, its siblings descendants have no
chance to send streams, even if their parent stream has
NGHTTP2_STREAM_DPRI_NODATA.
Previously when nghttp2_stream_resume_deferred_data() is called,
deferred flags in stream->flags are all cleared. This is not ideal
because if application returned NGHTTP2_ERR_DEFERRED, and also that
stream is deferred by flow control, then all flags are cleared and
read callback will be invoked again. This commit fixes this issue.
This changes error condition of nghttp2_session_resume_data().
Previously we return error if stream was deferred by flow control.
Now we don't return error in this case. We just clear
NGHTTP2_FLAG_DEFERRED_USER and if still
NGHTTP2_FLAG_DEFERRED_FLOW_CONTROL is set, just return 0.
Reworked no automatic WINDOW_UPDATE feature. We added new API
nghttp2_session_consume() which tells the library how many bytes are
consumed by the application. Instead of submitting WINDOW_UPDATE by
the application, the library is now responsible to submit
WINDOW_UPDATE based on consumed bytes. This is more reliable method,
since it enables us to properly send WINDOW_UPDATE for stream and
connection individually. The previous implementation of nghttpx had
broken connection window management.
We simulate resource sharing by decreasing weight. The thing is if
weight is wrapped, that item continues to send DATA until its weight
gets lowered under the other items. This commits fix this issue.
If stream with dpri value of no_data, we check any its descendant has
stream with dpri value of top. If so, we have to distribute of its
portion of weight to its descendants.
