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 change fixes the bug that stream is out of dependency tree if the
number of nodes in a dependency tree which we add new node to is
already maximum (NGHTTP2_MAX_DEP_TREE_LENGTH) and the number of
maximum concurrent streams is more than more than
NGHTTP2_MAX_DEP_TREE_LENGTH.
* Add NGHTTP2_HTTP_1_1_REQUIRED error code
* Allow transmission of WINDOW_UPDATE on reserved (remote)
* Allow reception of WINDOW_UPDATE on reserved (local)
* Treat frame larger than MAX_FRAME_SIZE as FRAME_SIZE_ERROR
ALPN identifier is still h2-14 to continue interop, since draft-14 and
-15 are binary compatible. The new error code was added in draft-15,
but HTTP/2 allows extensions can freely add new error code, so it is
not a problem.
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.
Previously when connection level remote flow control window gets 0, we
mark the stream having DATA frame with
NGHTTP2_STREAM_FLAG_DEFERRED_FLOW_CONTROL. When connection level
WINDOW_UPDATE is received, we checks all existing streams, including
closed ones, and call nghttp2_stream_resume_deferred_data(). The
profiler shows this is expensive.
Now we prepare dedicated priority queue for DATA frames. And we don't
mark stream with NGHTTP2_STREAM_FLAG_DEFERRED_FLOW_CONTROL when DATA
cannot be sent solely due to connection level flow control. Instead,
we just queue DATA item to queue. We won't pop DATA item from queue
when connection level remote window size is 0. This way, we avoid the
expensive operation for all streams when WINDOW_UPDATE is arrived.
Previously we missed the case where stream->data_item is not deleted
and it caused leak. Now stream->data_item is properly deleted when
session is deleted. We decided not to delete data_item in
nghttp2_stream_free() since we need nghttp2_session to decide whether
data_item should be deleted or not there.
By default, nghttp2 library only handles HTTP/2 frames and does not
recognize first 24 bytes of client connection preface. This design
choice is done due to the fact that server may want to detect the
application protocol based on first few bytes on clear text
communication. But for simple servers which only speak HTTP/2, it is
easier for developers if nghttp2 library takes care of client
connection preface.
If this option is used with nonzero val, nghttp2 library checks first
24 bytes client connection preface. If it is not a valid one,
nghttp2_session_recv() and nghttp2_session_mem_recv() will return
error NGHTTP2_ERR_BAD_PREFACE, which is fatal error.
