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
New hook 'component_send_packet' added.
Callback function must accept one argument {Pkt, ComponentState} and should yield 'drop' or {NewPkt, NewComponentState}.
The options "inet", "inet6" and "backlog" are valid listen options, but are
currently logged as errors (even though they do work):
2018-02-28 16:08:44.141 [error] <0.338.0>@ejabberd_listener:validate_module_option:630 unknown listen option 'backlog' for 'ejabberd_c2s' will be likely ignored, available options are: access, shaper, certfile, ciphers, dhfile, cafile, client_cafile, protocol_options, tls, tls_compression, starttls, starttls_required, tls_verify, zlib, max_fsm_queue
This adds the necessary validators so they are correctly recognized.
The option can be used to specify a period (in seconds) for a stream
negotiation to complete. If the timer fires, the stream is considered
as failed and the underlying connection gets closed. This is a global
option (you cannot set it per domain) and the default is 30 seconds.
The option emulates legacy behaviour which registers all routes
defined in `hosts` on a component connected. This behaviour
is considered harmful in the case when it's desired to multiplex
different components on the same port, so, to disable it,
set `global_routes` to `false`. The default value is `true`,
e.g. legacy behaviour is emulated: the only reason for this is
to maintain backward compatibility with existing deployments.
If set to `true`, all incoming XML packets are fully validated
against known schemas. If an error occurs, the packet will be bounced
with the corresponding error reason. The default value is `false`.
The option might be useful to protect client software from sofisticated
bugs related to XML validation as well as for client developers
who want to catch validation errors at early stage of development.
Note that the option might have slight performance impact, so use it
with care on loaded machines.
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 major goal is to simplify certificate management in ejabberd.
Currently it requires some effort from a user to configure certficates,
especially in the situation where a lot of virtual domains are hosted.
The task is splitted in several sub-tasks:
* Implement basic certificate validator. The validator should check all
configured certificates for existence, validity, duration and so on. The
validator should not perform any actions in the case of errors except
logging an error message. This is actually implemented by this commit.
* All certificates should be configured inside a single section (something
like 'certfiles') where ejabberd should parse them, check the full-chain,
find the corresponding private keys and, if needed, resort chains and
split the certficates into separate files for easy to use by fast_tls.
* Options like 'domain_certfile', 'c2s_certfile' or 's2s_certfile' should
probably be deprecated, since the process of matching certificates with the
corresponding virtual hosts should be done automatically and these options
only introduce configuration errors without any meaningful purpose.
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.
Now 'From' and 'To' arguments must be omitted in functions
and structures related to routing.
The commit deprecates the following functions:
ejabberd_router:route/3 in favor of ejabberd_router:route/1
ejabberd_router:route_error/4 in favor of ejabberd_router:route_error/2
ejabberd_local:route_iq/4 in favor of ejabberd_local:route_iq/2
ejabberd_local:route_iq/5 in favor of ejabberd_local:route_iq/3
The format of {route, From, To, Packet} is changed in favor of {route, Packet}
