It is still C code, so still compatible with C compilers as well. This
change lets us see more clearly where implicit conversions occur by
making them explicit.
- All global variables should be static unless they have an explicit
extern declaration in a header file.
- `to_compare` was not used in encryptsave and toxav tests.
- `break` in switch cases is not required directly after `return`,
`goto`, or a noreturn function like `abort`.
Enabling this flag will generate and use an LD version script. It
ensures that the dynamic libraries (libtoxcore.so, libtoxav.so) only
export the symbols that are defined in their public API (tox.h and
toxav.h, respectively).
In the future, all TODOs added either need a bug number (TODO(#NN)) or a
person's github user name. By default, I made irungentoo the owner of
all toxcore TODOs, mannol the owner of toxav TODOs, and myself the owner
of API TODOs.
This test is already performed by `make test` later on. We originally
had it in the Travis script to make it fail fast when the format is
wrong, but there is also some value in running all tests despite format
errors.
Fixes#83. There are no more relevant phases that would benefit from the
padding lines proposed.
It now enforces a bit more formatting. In particular, padding inside
parentheses is removed. I would like it to remove padding after unary
operators, but there seems to be no option for that.
I hadn't done this for the "fun" code, yet. Also, we should include
system headers after our own headers.
"In general, a module should be implemented by one or more .cpp files.
Each of these .cpp files should include the header that defines their
interface first. This ensures that all of the dependences of the module
header have been properly added to the module header itself, and are not
implicit. System headers should be included after user headers for a
translation unit."

- Any non-externally-visible declarations should be `static`.
- Casting away the `const` qualifier from pointers-to-const is
dangerous. All but one instance of this are now correct. The one
instance where we can't keep `const` is one where toxav code actually
writes to a chunk of memory marked as `const`. This code also assumes
4 byte alignment of data packets. I don't know whether that is a valid
assumption, but it's likely unportable, and *not* obviously correct.
- Replaced empty parameter lists with `(void)` to avoid passing
parameters to it. Empty parameter lists are old style declarations for
unknown number and type of arguments.
- Commented out (as `#if DHT_HARDENING` block) the hardening code that
was never executed.
- Minor style fix: don't use `default` in enum-switches unless the number
of enumerators in the default case is very large. In this case, it was
2, so we want to list them both explicitly to be warned about missing
one if we add one in the future.
- Removed the only two function declarations from nTox.h and put them
into nTox.c. They are not used outside and nTox is not a library.
- Don't cast between object and function pointers.
- Use standard compliant `__VA_ARGS__` in macros.
- Add explicit `__extension__` on unnamed union in struct (it's a GNU
extension).
- Remove ; after function definitions.
- Replace `const T foo = 3;` for integral types `T` with `enum { foo = 3 };`.
Folding integral constants like that as compile time constants is a GNU
extension. Arrays allocated with `foo` as dimension are VLAs on strictly
compliant C99 compilers.
- Replace empty initialiser list `{}` with zero-initialiser-list `{0}`.
The former is a GNU extension meaning the latter.
- Cast `T*` (where `T != void`) to `void *` in format arguments. While any
object pointer can be implicitly converted to and from `void *`, this
conversion does not happen in variadic function calls.
- Replace arithmetic on `void *` with arithmetic on `char *`. The former
is non-compliant.
- Replace non-`int`-derived types (like `uint16_t`, which is
`short`-derived) in bit fields with `int`-derived types. Using any type
other than `int` or `unsigned int` (or any of their aliases) in bit
fields is a GNU extension.
Messenger is slightly twisty when it comes to sending connection status
callbacks It will very likely need at the very least a partial refactor to
clean it up a bit. Toxcore shouldn't need void *userdata as deep as is
currently does.
(amend 1) Because of the nature of toxcore connection callbacks, I decided to
change this commit from statelessness for connections changes to statelessness
for friend requests. It's simpler this was and doesn't include doing anything
foolish in the time between commits.
group fixup because grayhatter doesn't want to do it
"arguably correct" is not how you write security sensitive code
Clear a compiler warning about types within a function.
Also, no longer #include the group code into tox.c. Instead, compile it
separately in tox_group.c. This is a bit less surprising to someone looking
around the code. Having some implementations in a .h file is certainly a bit
surprising to a disciplined C programmer, especially when there is no technical
reason to do it.
This removes the global logger (which by the way was deleted when the first tox
was killed, so other toxes would then stop logging). Various bits of the code
now carry a logger or pass it around. It's a bit less transparent now, but now
there is no need to have a global logger, and clients can decide what to log and
where.
- This PR also adds a DEBUG cmake option that enables -DTOX_DEBUG.
- We also remove `-Wall`, because there are too many warnings, and nobody really
looks at them at the moment. We'll see about fixing them soon. We'll also want
to enable `-Werror` at some point.
- Finally, this PR enables `-O3` to make sure toxcore still works correctly
under heavy compiler optimisations.
If libsodium can't be found with PKG_CHECK_MODULES, try AC_CHECK_LIB. If that
also fails, abort configure. If a user passes --with-libsodium-libs explicitly,
that overrides the pkg-config found location.
**What are we doing?**
We are moving towards stateless callbacks. This means that when registering a
callback, you no longer pass a user data pointer. Instead, you pass a user data
pointer to tox_iterate. This pointer is threaded through the code, passed to
each callback. The callback can modify the data pointed at. An extra indirection
will be needed if the pointer itself can change.
**Why?**
Currently, callbacks are registered with a user data pointer. This means the
library has N pointers for N different callbacks. These pointers need to be
managed by the client code. Managing the lifetime of the pointee can be
difficult. In C++, it takes special effort to ensure that the lifetime of user
data extends at least beyond the lifetime of the Tox instance. For other
languages, the situation is much worse. Java and other garbage collected
languages may move objects in memory, so the pointers are not stable. Tox4j goes
through a lot of effort to make the Java/Scala user experience a pleasant one by
keeping a global array of Tox+userdata on the C++ side, and communicating via
protobufs. A Haskell FFI would have to do similarly complex tricks.
Stateless callbacks ensure that a user data pointer only needs to live during a
single function call. This means that the user code (or language runtime) can
move the data around at will, as long as it sets the new location in the
callback.
**How?**
We are doing this change one callback at a time. After each callback, we ensure
that everything still works as expected. This means the toxcore change will
require 15 Pull Requests.
This allows us to more clearly define interfaces between modules, and have the
linker help us ensure that module boundaries are respected.
The onion/tcp/net_crypto layer is a bit too large. This is due to a cyclic
dependency (onion -> net_crypto -> TCP -> onion). We may or may not want to
break that cycle in the future to allow the onion library to exist on its own
without net_crypto.
Also, fix the hstox build that was taking half an hour. It now takes 5 minutes.
Also, perform distcheck on travis to ensure that make dist works. It's not
actually failing the build at the moment due to broken tests.
This is in preparation for having multiple types of build. One of the future
builds will be a hstox build, another may be frama-c or some other static
analyser. It makes sense to split these up into multiple builds, because each of
them can take a while, and running them in parallel will speed things up. Also,
the hstox test coverage should be reported separately from the toxcore auto_test
coverage.
> increased the timeout for TCP tests because per @irungentoo the network on Travis-CI can be slow sometimes
> allowed groupchats test to restart on error until timeout This had to be done because current groupchats are fundamentally broken and 3/5 times they'll 'net-split' on connect
>> Drop group chat tests, add comment to the reason
> added some debugging information to TCP tests, and a #define to force IPV6 (Travis-CI only uses IPv4 on their containers) and decreased the itr interval
> Went crazy with timeouts for Tox network stuff on Travis. Tests on TCP will still randomly fail due to timeouts. I can't reproduce on any local system. So again per @irungentoo, Travis is slow, let's offer it a short bus.
Apparently when no tty is attached, which is the case for Docker, the
buffer size for stdout increases to the point that only half of the
entire log might be written.
bootstrap_node_packets.c was giving an error as it was being included
twice and there were no include guards, so part of it was split into
bootstrap_node_packets.h.
Useful for things like a Docker container or just running it in the
terminal.
Complements the stdout logging option. This is actually why the stdout
logging was added in the first place -- to be used in the foreground
mode, though nothing stops one from using stdout in the background
mode, which one could redirect to a file.
Passing Logger object into every function isn't fun. See for yourself:
something as simple as a public key printing function turns from
>void print_public_key(const uint8_t *public_key)
to
>void print_public_key(Logger *logger, const uint8_t *public_key)
Some of them were set incorrectly, e.g. something that caused the
daemon to exit was marked as just a warning, instead of an error.
Removed debug level as it was hard to decide whether something should
go into info or debug. This is mostly because the use of the debug level
wasn't well defined. Debug should be used for information that could
help a user to debug an issue, but messages marked as debug were by the
most part the "success" log messages, which could go into info level
instead.
@arthurtiteica has pointed out that systemd has more suitable facilities for
creating a temporary directory for a PID file rather than calling ExecStartPre,
which requires an absolute path to coreutils executables we used for creating a
directory and changing its owner, paths of which are are not universal across
distributions. Systemd can take care of it for us without need to provide
absolute paths, which is what we use here.
Allow users to play with keys generated outside Tox core without
depending on features from any specific client. Just generate a
stub save file that every client will understand.
since the daemon is in the process of being packaged for easy deployment, it's probably best we have a working default config that extends existing nodes.
From what I see there is a difference between *BSD and Linux when
linking vs. toxcore which has been bulit vs. the NaCl library:
on Linux it only links if NaCl's object files (i.e. randombytes.o) is
present in the linker options, however on *BSD systems this will cause a
linking error, see:
https://github.com/Tox/toxic/issues/31#issuecomment-38224441
This commit makes sure that we do not add the NaCl object files to our
pkg-config settings on *BSD, but do add them on Linux.
Supports "unlimited" number of bootstrap nodes in the config file, instead of
just 32.
PID and keys file paths are not limited by 512 chars anymore.
Doesn't read the whole list of bootstrap servers into a global datastructure
that just sits there after being processed once -- reads bootstrap servers
one by one, processing them between reads.
Supports IPv6.
Has an option for IPv6.
Supports LAN discovery.
Has an option for LAN discovery.
Writes to syslog.
Uses new functions introduced in the core.
`status` in the bash script now works.
Has a simple README, with instructions for Debian-based distros.
DHT_bootstrap is not the same as DHT_bootstrap_serverdaemon, the latter
depends on libconfig and can be enabled/disable via a configure
parameter.
DHT_bootstrap has no dependencies and can always be built.
unix_time():
- returns local value for current epoch
- value is updated explicitly with unix_time_update() called at new_DHT()/doMessenger()/do_DHT()
is_timeout():
- uses the local value for current epoch
id_cpy()/id_eq() => id_copy()/id_equal():
- centralized duplicate definitions
- replaced (most) memcpy()/memcmp() of (*, *, CLIENT_ID_SIZE) with id_copy()/id_equal()
Additionally (besides cleanups):
network.h/tox.h:
- WIN32: fix a strange sa_family_t definition
- WIN32: define EWOULDBLOCK to WSAEWOULDBLOCK
- WIN32: kill macro for an existing function (IN6_ADDR_EQUAL)
network.c:
- use EWOULDBLOCK instead of EAGAIN (same value, but EWOULDBLOCK is more "popular")
- new_networking(): only try to enable IPv4-in-IPv6 if it's not already enabled per default
- inet_ntop()/inet_pton(): WIN32: remove partial initializers in favor of a simple memset()
- ip_equal(): WIN32: use an existing function
- logging: networking_wait_execute(): only dump result if not timeout
- logging: loglogdata(): kill an unused variable
LAN_discovery.c:
- send_broadcasts(): re-enabled, can only support IPv4 by principle, split into fetch_broadcast_info() (to fetch the addresses once) and send_broadcasts() (actual sending)
DHT.c:
- DHT_load_state_callback(): enclosed a fprintf(stderr, ...) into #ifdef DEBUG
Lossless_UDP.c:
- change_handshake(): harden against strange sa_family_t definitions
Messenger.c:
- logging: fix ID to string conversion
util.c:
- logging: eliminate a signed-warning
This patch inserts LAN discovery in DHT_bootstrap, allowing it to find clients even if it's run parameterless (and clients don't connect to it directly, e.g. because the port is already bound to a different client).
- moves the #define of LAN_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL from Messenger.c to LAN_discovery.h
- includes LAN_discovery.h into DHT_bootstrap.c
- DHT_bootstrap.c sends and accepts LAN_discovery packets
- tox_bootstrap_ex(), DHT_bootstrap_ex() renamed to tox_bootstrap_from_address(), DHT_bootstrap_from_address()
- (handle_)sendnodes_ex() renamed to (handle_)sendnodes_ipv6()
- only sending sendnodes_ipv6() if we're actually IPv6 enabled
- changed comments to conform better
nTox.c, Messenger_text.c, DHT_test.c, DHT_bootstrap.c:
- fallout from *_ex() to *_from_address()
DHT_bootstrap.c:
- corrected a potentially wrong info message
util.c:
- fixed logfile name: now (funcptr) => now() (number)
network.c:
- addead comment about the necessity of bind() to succeed
auto_test/messenger_test.c:
- defaulting ipv6enabled to TOX_ENABLE_IPV6_DEFAULT
LAN_discovery.c:
- slight cleanup and comments for clarity
- return to the caller if the string could be resolved into an IP
other/DHT_bootstrap.c, testing/*_test.c, testing/nTox.c:
- parse cmdline for --ipv4/--ipv6 switch to allow user a choice
util.h:
- proper old-style C-comment
By default libsodium is used. Only if --enable-nacl is specified, then
nacl will be used instead of libsodium.
Pass locations of nacl headers and libraries by using the following
options:
--with-nacl-headers=/home/me/somewhere/nacl-20110221/build/469/include/amd64/
--with-nacl-libs=/home/me/somewhere/nacl-20110221/build/469/lib/amd64/
This update makes sure that the build still works with automake prior to
1.12 and at the same time does not give any warnings or errors with
automake 1.14
supported options:
--with-dependency-search=DIR will tell configure to look for various
dependencies in DIR/include and DIR/lib
Alternatively you can also specify libsodium header and libs location
with --with-libsodium-headers and --with-libsodium-libs if it is
installed elsewhere.
Ncurses and libconfig are handled via the default pkg-config way, see
./configure --help=short for detailed information.
The tox library is compiled as libtoxcore in shared and static variants,
public headers are installed to ${prefix}/include/tox
A pkg-config libtoxcore.pc configuration file is provided.
Use ./configure --help for a full list of configure options or
./configure --help=short for the options that I added.
To generate the configure script after pulling from git use:
autoreconf -i
To generate a release tarball use:
make dist
Unit tests are handled by the libcheck library integration that is provided
by autotools, use:
make check
to compile and run the tests.
Unit tests are currently optional, i.e. - if the check library is not
found on the system, then tests will be disabled. Same goes for nTox and
DHT bootstrap daemon - they will be enabled or disabled depending on the
availability of ncurses (for nTox) or libconfig (for DHT bootstrap
daemon).
The above can be also tuned by:
--enable-tests / --disable-tests
--enable-ntox / --disable-ntox
--enable-dht-bootstrap-daemon / --disable-dht-bootstrap-daemon
While doing the checks configure might generate "core" files and will
then try to remove them. Having a "core" directory generates an error
while runing the configure script.
There's no workaround but to rename the core directory.
