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.
1. Add a request handler in ejabberd_http and explain how to configure the http listener so that the challenges can be solved.
2. Make acme configuration optional by providing defaults in ejabberd_acme.
3. Save the CA that the account has been created in so that it creates a new account when connecting to a new CA.
4. Small spec change in acme configuration.
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.
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.
