Imagine server side is buggy and miscalculates Content-Length: in the
reply. Data arriving in idle state shouldn't make us crash, instead we
can just reset the connection.
This patch fixes http://bugs.ntp.org/1844, works around
http://gnats.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=40401, by
improving the test for support of --gc-sections to run a program which
reads a file using stdio built with --gc-sections, instead of simply
link the binary. This catches the buggy linker as the garbage
collection removes a tag NetBSD uses to distinguish its own elf
binaries from Linux ones, causing it to treat conftest as a Linux
binary and run it with the wrong syscall table.
libevent/Makefile.am corrects a typo (thanks to Harlan for spotting it
once we realized make distcheck was broken when building the libevent
tearoff). The result was the include/ev*.h were not distributed nor
installed whether or not --disable-libevent-install was used. This
was introduced with the final round (3/3) of
--disable-libevent-install patch from me.
Original description:
The following patch fixes incorrect assertions in evrpc_free():
evrpc_unregister_rpc() and evrpc_remove_hook() return 0 for success.
Also, in evrpc_unregister_rpc(), it is better to free RPC structure
at the end: evrpc_free() uses rpc->uri as "name" parameter when
calling evrpc_unregister_rpc(), then rpc->uri is freed, but we have
"registered_uri = evrpc_construct_uri(name)". So at this time "name"
is invalid.
Original description by Dave Hart:
[This patch contains] the addition of a signature field to debug_lock
initialized by the alloc routine and verified by the rest, to catch
invalid lock pointers sooner. That helped me track down a nasty
problem I had before adding the time.h include to
libevent-internal.h, where different .c files had different ideas of
whether event_base had a tod_tv_cache member depending on which
included time.h before libevent-internal.h.
For now, we'll only check for gettimeofday jumps once every 5 seconds.
Let's see how that works.
This reverts commit 5209fadfd07af3f3379ac607582c37933b33e044.

The problem is that bufferevent_disable() doesn't disable EV_WRITE
when 'connecting' flag is set. However from evhttp_connection_reset()
we want to disable EV_WRITE for sure (we are closing the socket next).
So we add bufferevent_disable_hard(), which acts like
bufferevent_disable(), but resets 'connecting' flag before the call to
the actual handler.
TODO: bufferevent_disable_hard() shouldn't be public, remove it from
event2/bufferevent.h.
9c469db300e1b270a93c6b04c1709ac0f7751136 had started with the conversion
but left out another instance of incorrectly used AM_CFLAGS.
Dave Hart provided the suggestion for this fix.
I don't see how this can burn anybody, but I don't want to take
chances: new build options are something that should be done in an
alpha. To turn -ffunction-sections on, pass
--enable-function-sections to configure.
The main reason for disabling installation is if you're building
libevent as a subpackage for embedding: you want to have your main
package's "make all" build libevent, but you don't want your main
package's "make install" to install libevent.
Fix 1: Use #include "../xyz" rather than #include <../xyz>
Fix 2: util-internal.h includes ipv6-internal.h, which in turn defines
a replacement AF_INET6 on platforms that don't have it. As such,
the AF_INET6 checks shouldn't be needed. (right?)
