- A handy event_enable_debug_mode() feature which will error and abort the
application if any thread-aware libevent functions are called BEFORE the
evthread API has been initialized (manually, or through
evthread_use_windows_threads() / evthread_use_pthreads()
- This is done by setting the global debug variable
'event_debug_created_threadable_ctx_' whenever the following functions
are called:
evthreadimpl_lock_alloc_()
evthreadimpl_cond_alloc_()
event_base_new_with_config() <- this checks to see if the thread
callbacks are enabled first, so we
have to manually set the variable.
- Example:
int main(int argc, char ** argv) {
struct event_base * base;
event_enable_debug_mode();
base = event_base_new();
evthread_use_pthreads();
return 0;
}
When executed, the program will throw an error and exit:
[err] evthread initialization must be called BEFORE anything else!
* change and move the openssl self installer off to a site we own
- the old link was 404, probably due to being replaced with a newer
non-vuln version. But since we are only using this installer to
auto-build with on appveyor (not as a release), then having a file
we don't change and own seems to be a better solution.
* reduce verbosity
* Fixed an issue with evutil_ersatz_socketpair_, listen_addr could all
be compared against with agarbage values. So just memset it before
using it anywhere.
* Nick might punch me in the face, but if we have stdint.h; (as in
EVENT__HAVE_STDINT_H is defined), might as well use those instead of
the manual [U]INT[X}_MAX/MIN muck in there now.
If a bufferevent_filter is set on an underlying bufferevent which has
ctrl functions, bufferevent_filter needs to handle this.
For now I have added just BEV_CTRL_SET_FD, since this is needed for
bufferevent_sock to assign file descriptors to the proper
bufferevent_read/write callbacks.
A good example of the problem can be found in issue #237https://github.com/libevent/libevent/issues/237
This does the same thing as Travis-CI but for windows.

Go to: https://ci.appveyor.com/login -> Login using Github
Click **+New Project** -> Choose **Github** to the left -> Find **Libevent** in the list and click **Add**
CMake configuration files are intended to be used by other projects to find the library. Specifically the CMake find_package command can use it to find all files related to the project.
The idea is to support 2 different CMake configuration files for Libevent. One if you simply build libevent that is generated for the build tree.
And a second one that is generated for an install target that will be installed on the system and point to where on the system the lib files and such can be find.
So for instance, in the build tree the config would set the cmake variable `LIBEVENT_INCLUDE_DIRS` to `/path/to/libevent/build/include`.
And for the system config it would be set to `/usr/local/include` (or whatever target the user chose when running cmake).
27bd9faf498b91923296cc91643e03ec4055c230 changed this behavior so that both configs would point to the system wide path `/usr/local/include`
This meant that projects just wanting to import directly for the build tree would fail.
Then next code sample will use free'd lock:
evthread_use_pthreads();
...
assert(!bufferevent_pair_new(base, BEV_OPT_THREADSAFE, pair));
...
bufferevent_free(pair[0]); # refcnt == 0 -> unlink
bufferevent_free(pair[1]); # refcnt == 0 -> unlink
...
event_base_free() -> finalizers -> EVTHREAD_FREE_LOCK(bev1->lock)
-> BEV_LOCK(bev2->lock) <-- *already freed*
While if you will reverse the order:
bufferevent_free(pair[1]); # refcnt == 0 -> unlink
bufferevent_free(pair[0]); # refcnt == 0 -> unlink
...
event_base_free() -> finalizers -> BEV_LOCK(bev2->lock)/!own_lock/BEV_UNLOCK(bev2->lock)
-> EVTHREAD_FREE_LOCK(bev1->lock) (own_lock)
It is ok now, but I guess that it will be better to relax order of
freeing pairs.
This will avoid leaking of event_debug_map_HT_GROW
I buildin it into libevent_glboal_shutdown() because
event_disable_debug_mode() -> event_free_debug_globals() ->
event_free_debug_globals_locks() will clean event_debug_map_lock_ that
used in event_disable_debug_mode().
