Support systemd's watchdog feature and enable it by default in the unit
file, so that ejabberd is auto-restarted if the VM becomes unresponsive.
Also, set the systemd startup type to 'notify', so that startup of
followup units is delayed until ejabberd signals readiness. While at
it, also notify systemd of configuration reload and shutdown states.
Note: "NotifyAccess=all" is required as long as "ejabberdctl foreground"
runs the VM as a new child process, rather than "exec"ing it. This way,
systemd views the ejabberdctl process itself as the main service
process, and would discard notifications from other processes by
default.
Since we got rid of all bottle-neck processes and we have
a connection pool for every database, the option is no longer
needed and in fact is detrimental: in practice what you get
is just a bunch of overloaded processes in the IQ handlers pool
no matter how much you increase the `iqdisc` value.
Given that there are close to zero operators understanding
the meaning of the option and, hence, not using it all,
it's not simply deprecated but completely removed.
The commit also deprecates the following functions:
- gen_iq_handler:add_iq_handler/6
- gen_iq_handler:handle/5
- gen_iq_handler:iqdisc/1
When the option is set to `true`, the module will generate
CAPTCHA challenges for incoming subscription requests. The option
also implies that option `drop` is set to `true`. Note that
the module won't generate CAPTCHA challenges for messages: they
will still be rejected if `drop` is set to `true`.
Fixes#2246
Previous version was inefficient: it had a lot of false positives
along with a lot of false negatives, making its usage pointless.
The new verion is based on memsup(3erl) application: the OOM watchdog is
only started when total OS memory consumption is more than 80%.
A watchdog periodically inspects all running processes and collects
statistics about overloaded ones (those queueing a lot of messages).
If the OOM killer is enabled (`oom_killer: true`), all overloaded
processes would be killed. By default, OOM killer is enabled.
When memory consumption is back to normal, the OOM watchdog is stopped.
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.
ExtMod should be loaded before GenModSupervisor because ext_mod adds proper paths to ebin from modules (ejabberd-contrib).
Without this change you have to add -pa parameter with path to module's ebin.
For couple years browsers did limit ability to change cookies from js
for different domains, this made http_poll connections practically not
usuable. I don't think this module is used at all so it's time to put it
to rest.
