Previously, the incoming invalid regular header field was ignored by
default. With this commit, they are now treated as stream error, and
the stream is reset by default. The error code used is now
PROTOCOL_ERROR, instead of INTERNAL_ERROR.
nghttp2_option_no_closed_streams controls whether closed streams are
retained or not. If nonzero is passed to that function's parameter
val, a session does not retain closed streams. It may hurt the shape
of priority tree, but can save memory.
Revert part of 16c46114dc to fix race
condition that incoming stream after sending GOAWAY causes connection
error. The strict stream handling introduced in the above commit does
not handle several cases well (e.g., GOAWAY race, and refusing streams
because of concurrency limit).
2 APIs are added. nghttp2_session_get_local_window_size() returns the
amount of data that the remote endpoint can send without receiving
connection level WINDOW_UPDATE.
nghttp2_session_get_stream_local_window_size() returns the amount of
data that the remote endpoint can send without receiving stream level
WINDOW_UPDATE.
Previously, in server side, we used closed streams to detect the error
that the misbehaving client sends a frame on the incoming stream it
explicitly closed. With this commit, we make a further step, and
detect one more error case. Since we retain closed streams as long as
the sum of its size and the number of opened streams are equal or less
than max concurrent streams, we can safely say that if we get a frame
which is sent on the stream that is not found in either closed or
opened stream, it is already closed or has not existed. Then we can
send GOAWAY.
The previous code shrinks closed streams when we closed another
stream, but now it is removed. It is enough to adjust closed streams
when new incoming stream is created.
While creating this commit, we noticed that
NGHTTP2_INITIAL_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS is defined as INT32_MAX. But
since SETTINGS can contain value up to UINT32_MAX, it is not enough.
However, since the stream ID space is limited to INT32_MAX, it is high
enough. We could keep this value, but this time we deprecate
NGHTTP2_INITIAL_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS macro. While it is in public
header, the effect of deprecating it is negligible because of the
reason we wrote above, and usually application sets much smaller value
(say, 100) as SETTINGS_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS.
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-5.3.3 explains how to
transform dependency tree to avoid circular dependency. Previously,
we wrongly always moved the dependent stream under the root stream.
The correct destination is the parent stream of the stream to
reprioritize. This commit fixes this bug.
nghttp2_on_invalid_header_callback is similar to
nghttp2_on_header_callback, but the former is only called when the
invalid header field is received which is silently ignored when the
callback is not set. With this callback, application inspects the
incoming invalid field, and it also can reset stream from this
callback by returning NGHTTP2_ERR_TEMPORAL_CALLBACK_FAILURE, or using
nghttp2_submit_rst_stream() directly with the error code of choice.
We also added nghttp2_on_invalid_header_callback2, which uses
reference counted header fields.
This function sets the maximum length of header block (a set of header
fields per HEADERS frame) to send. The length of given set of header
fields is calculated using nghttp2_hd_deflate_bound(). Previously,
this is hard-coded, and is 64KiB.
The COMPILE_LANGUAGE generator expression is only supported since CMake
3.3. Moreover, it does not work with all generators (works with Makefile
and Ninja, but not with Visual Studio).
target_compile_options would only work if a target does not mix C and
C++ sources, since the flags are intended to be set for a specific
language, use set_source_files_properties instead. This approach is also
less repetitive.
Drop the idea of using lists and COMPILE_OPTIONS,
set_source_files_properties only understands COMPILE_FLAGS (a single
string, not a list).
This option prevents the nghttp2 library from sending PING frame with
ACK flag set in the reply to incoming PING frame. To allow the
application to send PING with ACK flag set, nghttp2_submit_ping() now
recognizes NGHTTP2_FLAG_PING in its flags parameter.
