zmq_atomic_counter_dec returned a 'bool' value, yet this isn't
defined by standard, so causes compile errors in upstream code.
Solution: return an int that can be safely converted to bool if
needed by bindings.
Solution: as libzmq already provides this across all platforms,
expose an atomic counter API. I've not wrapped atomic pointers,
though someone who needs this may want to do so.
Solution: set defaults back to infinity, and add new context
option, ZMQ_BLOCKY that the user can set to false to get a
less surprising behavior on context termination. Eg.
zmq_ctx_set (ctx, ZMQ_BLOCKY, false);
Solution: document this with a clear warning. It would be
nicer perhaps to change the default LINGER to e.g. a few
seconds. However this could break existing applications.
This commit adds a ZMQ_POLLPRI flag that maps to poll()'s POLLPRI
flag.
This flags does nothing for OMQ sockets. It's only useful for raw
file descriptor (be it socket or file).
This flag does nothing if poll() is not the underlying polling
function. So it is Linux only.
Solution: document the limit of 113 chars including ipc://. We might
fix this in libzmq by shortening an over-long IPC pathname into a
unique string; so long as this is done consistently in bind and in
connect, it will save applications from weird failures when they
use external data to generate IPC pathnames.
Solution: change setsockopts on printable keys to expect 41, nor 40
bytes. Code still accepts 40 bytes for compatibility, and copies the
key to a well-terminated string before using it.
Fixes#1148
As libzmq is compiled with optional transports and security mechanisms,
there is no clean way for applications to determine what capabilities
are actually available in a given libzmq instance.
Solution: provide an API specifically for capability reporting. The
zmq_has () method is meant to be open ended. It accepts a string so
that we can add arbitrary capabilities without breaking existing
applications.
zmq.h also defines ZMQ_HAS_CAPABILITIES when this method is provided.
Applications that use ZMQ_IDENTITY can be trapped by the artificial
restriction on not using a binary zero as first byte. It's specially
nasty on random generated identities, e.g. UUIDs, as the chance of a
binary zero is low, so it will pass 255 out of 256 times.
Solution: remove the restriction.
Added modifiers reflect the following properties:
- zmq_msg_gets () does not mutate property parameter
- zmq_msg_gets () returns a pointer to memory the caller should not
modify
Specifically:
* zmq_event_t should not be used internally in libzmq, it was
meant to be an outward facing structure.
* In 4.x, zmq_event_t does not correspond to monitor events, so
I removed the structure entirely.
* man page for zmq_socket_monitor is incomplete and the example
code was particularly nasty.
* test_monitor.cpp needed rewriting, it was not clean.
Issues adressed:
- The actual data was never read from the socket, causing all even
numbered loop iterations to fail
- The socket variable was called server once
The new options allows querying the maximum allowed number of sockets.
This is system dependent and cannot be encoded in the include file as a
preprocessor macro: for ZMQ_USE_SELECT, this depends on the FD_SETSIZE
macro at time of library compilation, not at time of include file use.
When a ZMQ_STREAM socket connection is broken (intentionally, via `shutdown()`
or accidentally via client crash or network failure), there is no way for the
application to dertermine that it should drop per-connection data (such as
buffers).
This contribution makes sure the application receives a 0-length message to
notify it that the connection has been broken. This is symmetric with the
process of closing the connection from within the application (where the
application sends a 0-length message to tell ZeroMQ to close the connection).

- This seems redundant; is there a use case for NOT providing
the IPC credentials to the ZAP authenticator?
- More, why is IPC authentication done via libzmq instead of ZAP?
Is it because we're missing the transport type on the ZAP request?
Another take on LIBZMQ-568 to allow filtering IPC connections, this time
using ZAP. This change is backward compatible. If the
ZMQ_ZAP_IPC_CREDS option is set, the user, group, and process IDs of the
peer process are appended to the address (separated by colons) of a ZAP
request; otherwise, nothing changes. See LIBZMQ-568 and zmq_setsockopt
documentation for more information.
Documentation examples for zmq_msg_get and zmq_msg_more functions have an
incorrect call to zmq_msg_close function - with 'zmq_msg_t' as a parameter
despite 'zmq_msg_t *' is required, so it is impossible to compile these
examples properly.
Also for zmq_msg_get example - declaration of zmq_msg_t variable is added
(like it is done in other examples).
* ZMQ_REQ_STRICT was negative option (default 1) which goes against
the standard, where defaults are zero. I renamed this to
ZMQ_REQ_RELAXED.
* ZMQ_REQ_REQUEST_IDS felt clumsy and describes the technical solution
rather than the problem/requirement. I changed to ZMQ_REQ_CORRELATE
which seems more explicit.
* Removed redundant Z85 code and include files from project
* Simplified use of headers in test cases (now they all just use testutil.hpp)
* Export zmq_z85_encode() and zmq_z85_decode() in API
* Added man pages for these two functions
On ZMQ_CURVE_xxxKEY fetches, would return 41 bytes into caller's 40-byte
buffer. Now these fetches only return 41 bytes if the caller explicitly
provides a 41-byte buffer (i.e. the option size is 41).
* This is passed to the ZAP handler in the 'domain' field
* If not set, or empty, then NULL security does not call the ZAP handler
* This resolves the phantom ZAP request syndrome seen with sockets where
security was never intended (e.g. in test cases)
* This means if you install a ZAP handler, it will not get any requests
for new connections until you take some explicit action, which can be
setting a username/password for PLAIN, a key for CURVE, or the domain
for NULL.
This allows making a new request on a REQ socket by sending a new
message. Without the option set, calling send() after the first message
is done will continue to return an EFSM error.
It's useful for when a REQ is not getting a response. Previously that
meant creating a new socket or switching to DEALER.
* Documentation:
The default behavior of REQ sockets is to rely on the ordering of messages
to match requests and responses and that is usually sufficient. When this option
is set to 1, the REQ socket will prefix outgoing messages with an extra frame
containing a request id. That means the full message is (request id, 0,
user frames...). The REQ socket will discard all incoming messages that don't
begin with these two frames.
* Behavior change: When a REQ socket gets an invalid reply, it used to
discard the message and return EAGAIN. REQ sockets still discard
invalid messages, but keep looking at the next one automatically
until a good one is found or there are no more messages.
* Add test_req_request_ids.
The use of binary for CURVE keys is painful; you cannot easily copy
these in e.g. email, or use them directly in source code. There are
various encoding possibilities. Base16 and Base64 are not optimal.
Ascii85 is not safe for source (it generates quotes and escapes).
So, I've designed a new Base85 encoding, Z85, which is safe to use
in code and elsewhere, and I've modified libzmq to use this where
it also uses binary keys (in get/setsockopt).
Very simply, if you use a 32-byte value, it's Base256 (binary),
and if you use a 40-byte value, it's Base85 (Z85).
I've put the Z85 codec into z85_codec.hpp, it's not elegant C++
but it is minimal and it works. Feel free to rewrap as a real class
if this annoys you.

Update documentation
The previous note in connect introduced but did not elaborate on the
requirement to bind before connect in inproc. As that discussion is in
detail in the inproc docs link to there.
Based on discussion with Steve O on the list, make the difference
between bind and connect usage more clear, and add a note reflecting the
fact that inproc must have bind before connect to reinforce the
information in zmq_inproc.
This patch, salvaged from a trainwreck accidental merge earlier, adds a
new sockopt, ZMQ_DELAY_ATTACH_ON_CONNECT which prevents a end point
being available to push messages to until it has fully connected, making
connect work more like bind. This also applies to reconnecting sockets,
which may cause message loss of in-queue messages, so it is sensible to
use this in conjunction with a low HWM and potentially an alternative
acknowledgement path.
Notes on most of the individual commits can be found the repository log.
This patch adds a sockopt ZMQ_DELAY_ATTACH_ON_CONNECT, which if set to 1 will attempt to preempt this behavior. It does this by extending the use of the session_base to include in the outbound as well as the inbound pipe, and only associates the pipe with the socket once it receives the connected callback via a process_attach message. This works, and a test has been added to show so, but may introduce unexpected complications. The shutdown logic in this class has become marginally more awkward because of this, requiring the session to serve as the sink for both pipes if shutdown occurs with a still-connecting pipe in place. It is also possible there could be issues around flushing the messages, but as I could not directly think how to create such an issue I have not written any code with regards to that.
The documentation has been updated to reflect the change, but please do check over the code and test and review.
The PGM transport supports the omission of the network interface to
select the default one like:
announce.connect("epgm://eth0;239.255.128.46:64646"); // Use eth0
announce.connect("epgm://239.255.128.46:64646"); // Use the default
Also, mention C++ in the additional community bindings of 0MQ in
zmq.txt.
The current ZMQ_MONITOR code does not compile in gcc 4.7, as -pedantic
and -Werror are enabled, and ISO C++ doesn't allow casting between
normal pointers (void*) and function pointers, as pedantically their
size could be different. This caused the library not compilable. This
commit workaround the problem by introducing one more indirection, i.e.
instead of calling
(void *)listener
which is an error, we have to use
*(void **)&listener
which is an undefined behavior :) but works on most platforms
Also, `optval_ = monitor` will not set the parameter in getsockopt(),
and the extra casting caused the LHS to be an rvalue which again makes
the code not compilable. The proper way is to pass a pointer of function
pointer and assign with indirection, i.e. `*optval_ = monitor`.
Also, fixed an asciidoc error in zmq_getsockopt.txt because the `~~~~`
is too long.
Assign arbitrary number of filters that will be applied for each new TCP transport
connection on a listening socket.
If no filters applied, then TCP transport allows connections from any ip.
If at least one filter is applied then new connection source ip should be matched.
To clear all filters call zmq_setsockopt(socket, ZMQ_TCP_ACCEPT_FILTER, NULL, 0).
Filter is a null-terminated string with ipv6 or ipv4 CIDR.
For example:
localhost
127.0.0.1
mail.ru/24
::1
::1/128
3ffe:1::
3ffe:1::/56
Returns -1 if the filter couldn't be assigned(format error or ipv6 filter with ZMQ_IPV4ONLY set)
P.S.
The only thing that worries me is that I had to re-enable 'default assign by reference constructor/operator'
for 'tcp_address_t' (and for my inherited class tcp_address_mask_t) to store it in std::vector in 'options_t'...
* Implemented new ctx API (_new, _destroy, _get, _set)
* Removed 'typesafe' macros from zmq.h
* Added support for MAX_SOCKETS (was tied into change for #337)
* Created new man pages
The new function allows to retrieve options (flags)
from zmq_msg_t.

This option is a performance tweak. In devices XSUB socket filters
the messages just to send them to XPUB socket which filters them
once more. Setting ZMQ_FILTER option to 0 allows to switch the
filtering in XSUB socket off.
