* Problem: connecter classes do not handle ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL of -1
Solution: Add guards to prevent a reconnect timer from starting if ZMQ_RECONNECT_IVL is -1
(Issue 3158)
* Problem: Still need to port over more files to VxWorks 6.x
Solution: Port more files to VxWorks 6.x
* Problem: Need to port over remaining files to VxWorks 6.x. Also remove POSIX thread dependency for VxWorks (because of priority inversion problem in POSIX mutexes with VxWorks 6.x processes)
Solution: Port over remaining files to VxWorks 6.x. Also removed POSIX thread dependency for VxWorks
* Problem: Needed to modify TCP, UDP, TIPC classes with #ifdefs to be compatible with VxWorks 6.x.
Solution: Modify TCP, UDP, TIPC classes with #ifdefs to be compatible with VxWorks 6.x
Linux now supports Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) as per:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/vrf.txt
In order for an application to bind or connect to a socket with an
address in a VRF, they need to first bind the socket to the VRF device:
setsockopt(sd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_BINDTODEVICE, dev, strlen(dev)+1);
Note "dev" is the VRF device, eg. VRF "blue", rather than an interface
enslaved to the VRF.
Add a new socket option, ZMQ_BINDTODEVICE, to bind a socket to a device.
In general, if a socket is bound to a device, eg. an interface, only
packets received from that particular device are processed by the socket.
If device is a VRF device, then subsequent binds/connects to that socket
use addresses in the VRF routing table.
* Prevent DOS by asserts in TCP tuning
-Propagates socket option errors from the
tuning functions to the callers.
-Asserts a subset of error conditions during tuning,
excluding external network causes.
-Checks tuning results in 3 call sites and treats
them like failures to connect, accept, etc.
* Fix variable name
* Remove lambda requiring C++11
Solution: during a connect with a TCP endpoint if a source address is
passed set the SO_REUSEADDR flag on the socket before the bind system
call.
Add unit test to cover this case for both IPv4 and IPv6.
Solution: if opening an IPv6 TCP socket fails because IPv6 is not
available, try to open an IPv4 socket instead when creating and
connecting a TCP endpoint.
Solution: The Coverity Static Code Analyzer was used on libzmq code and found
many issues with uninitialized member variables, some redefinition of variables
hidding previous instances of same variable name and a couple of functions
where return values were not checked, even though all other occurrences were
checked (e.g. init_size() return).
Only assert on errors we know are our fault,
instead of trying to whitelist every possible network-related failure.
This makes ZeroMQ more portable to other platforms
where the possible errors are different.
In particular, the previous code would often die under iOS.
