2021-09-20	t/helper/simple-ipc: convert test-simple-ipc to use start_bg_command	Jeff Hostetler	1	-156/+43
	Convert test helper to use `start_bg_command()` when spawning a server daemon in the background rather than blocks of platform-specific code. Also, while here, remove _() translation around error messages since this is a test helper and not Git code.

2021-09-20	simple-ipc: preparations for supporting binary messages.	Jeff Hostetler	1	-11/+23
	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>
2021-03-22	t0052: add simple-ipc tests and t/helper/test-simple-ipc tool	Jeff Hostetler	1	-0/+787
	Create t0052-simple-ipc.sh with unit tests for the "simple-ipc" mechanism. Create t/helper/test-simple-ipc test tool to exercise the "simple-ipc" functions. When the tool is invoked with "run-daemon", it runs a server to listen for "simple-ipc" connections on a test socket or named pipe and responds to a set of commands to exercise/stress the communication setup. When the tool is invoked with "start-daemon", it spawns a "run-daemon" command in the background and waits for the server to become ready before exiting. (This helps make unit tests in t0052 more predictable and avoids the need for arbitrary sleeps in the test script.) The tool also has a series of client "send" commands to send commands and data to a server instance.
