"All rights reserved" was incorrect. The project was licensed under GPL3,
which means a lot of rights are licensed to everybody in the world, i.e.
not reserved to the "Tox Project".
- Any non-externally-visible declarations should be `static`.
- Casting away the `const` qualifier from pointers-to-const is
dangerous. All but one instance of this are now correct. The one
instance where we can't keep `const` is one where toxav code actually
writes to a chunk of memory marked as `const`. This code also assumes
4 byte alignment of data packets. I don't know whether that is a valid
assumption, but it's likely unportable, and *not* obviously correct.
- Replaced empty parameter lists with `(void)` to avoid passing
parameters to it. Empty parameter lists are old style declarations for
unknown number and type of arguments.
- Commented out (as `#if DHT_HARDENING` block) the hardening code that
was never executed.
- Minor style fix: don't use `default` in enum-switches unless the number
of enumerators in the default case is very large. In this case, it was
2, so we want to list them both explicitly to be warned about missing
one if we add one in the future.
- Removed the only two function declarations from nTox.h and put them
into nTox.c. They are not used outside and nTox is not a library.
unix_time():
- returns local value for current epoch
- value is updated explicitly with unix_time_update() called at new_DHT()/doMessenger()/do_DHT()
is_timeout():
- uses the local value for current epoch
id_cpy()/id_eq() => id_copy()/id_equal():
- centralized duplicate definitions
- replaced (most) memcpy()/memcmp() of (*, *, CLIENT_ID_SIZE) with id_copy()/id_equal()
Compilerflag: CLIENT_ONETOONE_IP (to define in DHT.h, default unset i.e. NEW case: two addresses)
Every function in DHT{_test}.c working on Client_data has been rewritten to store IPv4 addresses in assoc4, IPv6 addresses in assoc6.
Loading/Storing of states defined with other compiler switch is transparently adjusting to the differences.
DHT.h, DHT.c:
- introduction and handling of the structure changes
DHT_test.c, Messenger.c:
- logging adapted to new structures
util.h:
- LOGGING isn't undefined per default anymore
Primary rationale: The part that DHT saves changes if IP is expanded to IPv6. To let people keep their friends/name, change the datafile format now, while everybody is still on the same page.
Loading/Saving rewritten to allow a part of the file to be incomprehensible to the loading routine.
Added a magic cookie at the beginning to mark the file as tox's.
Changes in some part of the datafile can be skipped and the remaining parts still be consumed.
Allows a wide margin of forward compatibility (like the IP to IPv6 transition, but also e.g. a change in the key format).
As long as the file is not completely garbled, the routine will read as much as possible. Only the KEY section is considered mandatory: a malformed key section leads to a negative result.
util.*:
- holds the driving function which jumps from section to section and calls back with section length and tag (type)
Messenger.c,DHT.*:
- new loading functions call the util-function with a callback, which subsequently consumes the sections
- old routines are kept to fall back onto if the magic cookie at the beginning isn't present
- saving is still done in one local routine
- return to the caller if the string could be resolved into an IP
other/DHT_bootstrap.c, testing/*_test.c, testing/nTox.c:
- parse cmdline for --ipv4/--ipv6 switch to allow user a choice
util.h:
- proper old-style C-comment
While doing the checks configure might generate "core" files and will
then try to remove them. Having a "core" directory generates an error
while runing the configure script.
There's no workaround but to rename the core directory.
