If a TCP connection was closed before the socket was handed over to a
supervised child process, let the supervisor terminate the process
rather than killing it directly. This avoids crash log entries
generated by the supervisor.
==== WARNING: MUST BE ADDED TO RELEASE NOTES =====
The commit introduces the following incompatibility:
- Option 'ca_path' is deprecated and has no effect anymore:
option 'ca_file' should be used instead if needed.
==================================================
The header consisted of too many unrelated stuff and macros misuse.
Some stuff is moved into scram.hrl and type_compat.hrl.
All macros have been replaced with the corresponding function calls.
TODO: probably type_compat.hrl is not even needed anymore since
we support only Erlang >= OTP 17.5
The callback is supposed to provide known options and their default
values, as long as the documentation. Passing default values into
get_mod functions is now deprecated: all defaults should be provided
by the Mod:mod_options/1 callback.
ejabberd receivers were meant to serve connections from frontends
to backends. However, this approach was not popular and frontend
related code was removed in previous releases. Now, ejabberd receiver's
code was also removed, making the code shorter and cleaner. Also, in
stress tests ejabberd now handles load more robustly, without
c2s processes overload (even with disabled shapers).
ejabberd_socket.erl is renamed to xmpp_socket.erl: it's supposed to
be finally moved into stand-alone xmpp library.
The changes are very similar to those from previous commit:
* Now there is no need to pass validating function in
gen_mod:get_opt() and gen_mod:get_module_opt() functions,
because the modules' configuration keeps already validated values.
* New functions gen_mod:get_opt/2 and gen_mod:get_module_opt/3 are
introduced.
* Functions gen_mod:get_opt/4 and get_module_opt/5 are deprecated.
If the functions are still called, the "function" argument is
simply ignored.
* Validating callback Mod:listen_opt_type/1 is introduced to validate
listening options at startup.
The commit introduces the following changes:
* Now there is no need to pass validating function in
ejabberd_config:get_option() functions, because the configuration
keeps already validated values.
* New function ejabberd_config:get_option/1 is introduced
* Function ejabberd_config:get_option/3 is deprecated. If the function
is still called, the second argument (validating function) is simply
ignored.
* The second argument for ejabberd_config:get_option/2 is now
a default value, not a validating function.
