Now room owners are able to set a preferred language
for the discussions in the room, so other users can
discover rooms based on the language they wish to talk.
TODO: the language format should conform to RFC 5646.
This check should be implemented in 'xmpp' library.
Fixes#2436
If a callback function is not defined by the `Mod` then
a call to code_server process is performed. Under heavy load
this may cause code_server to get overloaded. We now avoid this.
ext_api_headers can be defined as a single string. Headers are separated
by comma. Definition MUST NOT contain spaces. Example
"X-MyHead:test,X-Token:082748"
Due to historical reasons, ejabberd loads the whole file/data
into the memory when serving an HTTP request. This is now improved:
1) For GET requests ejabberd uses sendfile(2) if the underlying
connection is HTTP and falls back to read/write loop with 64kb
buffer for HTTPS connections. This type of requests are handled
by mod_http_fileserver, mod_http_upload, ejabberd_captcha, etc
2) POST requests are now limited to 20Mb and are fully downloaded
into the memory for further processing (by ejabberd_web_admin,
mod_bosh, etc)
3) PUT requests (e.g. for mod_http_upload) are handled by read/write
loop with 64kb buffer
Since now, ejabberd doesn't ignore unknown options and doesn't
allow to have options with malformed values. The rationale for
this is to avoid unexpected behaviour during runtime, i.e. to
conform to "fail early" approach. Note that it's safe to reload
a configuration with potentialy invalid and/or unknown options:
this will not halt ejabberd, but will only prevent the configuration
from loading.
***NOTE FOR PACKAGE BUILDERS***
This new behaviour should be documented in the upgrade notes.
Now all external ports are attached to supervising processes
and requests are balanced in round-robin manner until the pool
is exhausted.
The commit also deprecates `extauth_instances` option and introduces
`extauth_pool_size` option instead, with the default value of a number
of logical processors (i.e. CPU cores).
Fixes#2403
