2021-09-27*.h _INIT macros: don't specify fields equal to 0Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-5/+1
Change the initialization of "struct strbuf" changed in cbc0f81d96f (strbuf: use designated initializers in STRBUF_INIT, 2017-07-10) to omit specifying "alloc" and "len", as we do with other "alloc" and "len" (or "nr") in similar structs. Let's likewise omit the explicit initialization of all fields in the "struct ipc_client_connect_option" struct added in 59c7b88198a (simple-ipc: add win32 implementation, 2021-03-15). Do the same for a few other initializers, e.g. STRVEC_INIT and CACHE_DEF_INIT. Finally, start incrementally changing the same pattern in "t/helper/test-run-command.c". This change was part of an earlier on-list version[1] of c90be786da9 (test-tool run-command: fix flip-flop init pattern, 2021-09-11). 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/patch-1.1-0aa4523ab6e-20210909T130849Z-avarab@gmail.com/ Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-09-20simple-ipc: move definition of ipc_active_state outside of ifdefLibravatar Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belón1-7/+7
Move the declartion of the `enum ipc_active_state` type outside of the SUPPORTS_SIMPLE_IPC ifdef. A later commit will introduce the `fsmonitor_ipc__*()` API and stub in a "mock" implementation that requires this enum in some function signatures.

2021-09-20simple-ipc: preparations for supporting binary messages.Libravatar Jeff Hostetler1-2/+5
Add `command_len` argument to the Simple IPC API. In my original Simple IPC API, I assumed that the request would always be a null-terminated string of text characters. The `command` argument was just a `const char *`. I found a caller that would like to pass a binary command to the daemon, so I am amending the Simple IPC API to receive `const char *command, size_t command_len` arguments. I considered changing the `command` argument to be a `void *`, but the IPC layer simply passes it to the pkt-line layer which takes a `const char *`, so to avoid confusion I left it as is. Note, the response side has always been a `struct strbuf` which includes the buffer and length, so we already support returning a binary answer. (Yes, it feels a little weird returning a binary buffer in a `strbuf`, but it works.) Signed-off-by: Jeff Hostetler <jeffhost@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-05-21simple-ipc: correct ifdefs when NO_PTHREADS is definedLibravatar Jeff Hostetler1-4/+0
Simple IPC always requires threads (in addition to various platform-specific IPC support). Fix the ifdefs in the Makefile to define SUPPORTS_SIMPLE_IPC when appropriate. Previously, the Unix version of the code would only verify that Unix domain sockets were available. This problem was reported here: https://lore.kernel.org/git/YKN5lXs4AoK%2FJFTO@coredump.intra.peff.net/T/#m08be8f1942ea8a2c36cfee0e51cdf06489fdeafc Reported-by: Randall S.

2021-03-22simple-ipc: add Unix domain socket implementationLibravatar Jeff Hostetler1-1/+12
Create Unix domain socket based implementation of "simple-ipc". A set of `ipc_client` routines implement a client library to connect to an `ipc_server` over a Unix domain socket, send a simple request, and receive a single response. Clients use blocking IO on the socket. A set of `ipc_server` routines implement a thread pool to listen for and concurrently service client connections. The server creates a new Unix domain socket at a known location. If a socket already exists with that name, the server tries to determine if another server is already listening on the socket or if the socket is dead. If socket is busy, the server exits with an error rather than stealing the socket. If the socket is dead, the server creates a new one and starts up. If while running, the server detects that its socket has been stolen by another server, it automatically exits.
