* 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.
Of course people still "can" distributed the sources under the
LGPLv3. However we provide COPYING.LESSER with additional grants.
Solution: specify these grants in the header of each source file.
As mentioned on the mailing list, Windows may return WSAEADDRINUSE when binding
(reconnecting) to a port. Added this to the handled error codes as Pieter
suggested.
