CONTAINER_OF was introduced a while ago but was not used consistently
everywhere yet. This commit fixes that.
Why CONTAINER_OF instead of container_of? The former makes it crystal
clear that it's a macro, not a function.
The test case from the previous commit exposed a regression in the way
that c-ares errors are reported to JS land. Said regression was
introduced in commit 756b622 ("src: add multi-context support").
Fixes the following test failure:
$ out/Release/node test/simple/test-dns-regress-6244
util.js:675
var errname = uv.errname(err);
^
Error: err >= 0
at Object.exports._errnoException (util.js:675:20)
at errnoException (dns.js:43:15)
at Object.onresolve [as oncomplete] (dns.js:145:19)
lib/dns.js erroneously assumed that the error code was a libuv error
code when it's really a c-ares status code. Libuv handles getaddrinfo()
style lookups (which is by far the most common type of lookup), that's
why this bug wasn't discovered earlier.
This commit makes it possible to use multiple V8 execution contexts
within a single event loop. Put another way, handle and request wrap
objects now "remember" the context they belong to and switch back to
that context when the time comes to call into JS land.
This could have been done in a quick and hacky way by calling
v8::Object::GetCreationContext() on the wrap object right before
making a callback but that leaves a fairly wide margin for bugs.
Instead, we make the context explicit through a new Environment class
that encapsulates everything (or almost everything) that belongs to
the context. Variables that used to be a static or a global are now
members of the aforementioned class. An additional benefit is that
this approach should make it relatively straightforward to add full
isolate support in due course.
There is no JavaScript API yet but that will be added in the near
future.

Don't create an Integer when setting a numeric index on an object or an
array, use the version of v8::Object::Set() that takes an uint32_t.
Change the types of the variables from int to uint32_t and clean up
some code consistency issues while we're here.
Don't set the oncomplete property in src/cares_wrap.cc, we can do it
just as easily in lib/dns.js.
Switch two closures to the 'function with _this_ object' model. Makes
it impossible for an overzealous closure to capture too much context
and accidentally hold on to too much memory.
* Change calls to String::New() and String::NewSymbol() to their
respective one-byte, two-byte and UTF-8 counterparts.
* Add a FIXED_ONE_BYTE_STRING macro that takes a string literal and
turns it into a v8::Local<v8::String>.
* Add helper functions that make v8::String::NewFromOneByte() easier to
work with. Said function expects a `const uint8_t*` but almost every
call site deals with `const char*` or `const unsigned char*`. Helps
us avoid doing reinterpret_casts all over the place.
* Code that handles file system paths keeps using UTF-8 for backwards
compatibility reasons. At least now the use of UTF-8 is explicit.
* Remove v8::String::NewSymbol() entirely. Almost all call sites were
effectively minor de-optimizations. If you create a string only once,
there is no point in making it a symbol. If you are create the same
string repeatedly, it should probably be cached in a persistent
handle.
Libuv now returns errors directly. Make everything in src/ and lib/
follow suit.
The changes to lib/ are not strictly necessary but they remove the need
for the abominations that are process._errno and node::SetErrno().
Commit 636ca7c adds an optimization that casts strong Persistent<T>
handles directly to Local<T> handles to avoid the overhead of creating
new HandleScope-rooted Local<T> handles all the time.
One gotcha that I missed is that it's no longer legal to reference the
Local<T> after calling Persistent<T>::Dispose(). This commit addresses
that.
This is a big commit that touches just about every file in the src/
directory. The V8 API has changed in significant ways. The most
important changes are:
* Binding functions take a const v8::FunctionCallbackInfo<T>& argument
rather than a const v8::Arguments& argument.
* Binding functions return void rather than v8::Handle<v8::Value>. The
return value is returned with the args.GetReturnValue().Set() family
of functions.
* v8::Persistent<T> no longer derives from v8::Handle<T> and no longer
allows you to directly dereference the object that the persistent
handle points to. This means that the common pattern of caching
oft-used JS values in a persistent handle no longer quite works,
you first need to reconstruct a v8::Local<T> from the persistent
handle with the Local<T>::New(isolate, persistent) factory method.
A handful of (internal) convenience classes and functions have been
added to make dealing with the new API a little easier.
The most visible one is node::Cached<T>, which wraps a v8::Persistent<T>
with some template sugar. It can hold arbitrary types but so far it's
exclusively used for v8::Strings (which was by far the most commonly
cached handle type.)
Resolves minor discrepancies between android and standard POSIX systems.
In addition, some configure parameters were added, and a helper-script
for android configuration. Ideally, this script should be merged into
the standard configure script.
To build for android, source the android-configure script with an NDK
path:
source ./android-configure ~/android-ndk-r8d
This will create an android standalone toolchain and export the
necessary environment parameters.
After that, build as normal:
make -j8
After the build, you should now have android-compatible NodeJS binaries.
Suppress the following warning:
../../src/cares_wrap.cc: In function ‘v8::Handle<v8::Value>
node::cares_wrap::SetServers(const v8::Arguments&)’:
../../src/cares_wrap.cc:1017:5: warning: ‘uv_ret.uv_err_s::code’
may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]
getServers returns an array of ips that are currently being used for
resolution
setServers takes an array of ips that are to be used for resolution,
this will throw if there's invalid input but preserve the original
configuration
All compile time warnings about using deprecated APIs have been
suppressed by updating node's API. Though there are still many function
calls that can accept Isolate, and still need to be updated.
node_isolate had to be added as an extern variable in node.h and
node_object_wrap.h
Also a couple small fixes for Error handling.
Before v8 3.16.6 the error stack message was lazily written when it was
needed, which allowed you to change the message after instantiation.
Then the stack would be written with the new message the first time it
was accessed. Though that has changed. Now it creates the stack message
on instantiation. So setting a different message afterwards won't be
displayed.
This is not a complete fix for the problem. Getting error without any
message isn't very useful.
Use static_cast instead of reinterpret_cast when casting from void*
to another type.
This is mostly an aesthetic change but may help catch bugs when the
affected code is modified.
* Added isIP method to make use of inet_pton to cares_wrap.cc
* Modified net.isIP() to make use of new C++ isIP method.
* Added new tests to test-net-isip.js.
This is a back-port of commit fb6377e from the master branch.
* Added isIP method to make use of inet_pton to cares_wrap.cc
* Modified net.isIP() to make use of new C++ isIP method.
* Added new tests to test-net-isip.js.
It was decided that the performance benefits that isolates offer (faster spin-up
times for worker processes, faster inter-worker communication, possibly a lower
memory footprint) are not actual bottlenecks for most people and do not outweigh
the potential stability issues and intrusive changes to the code base that
first-class support for isolates requires.
Hence, this commit backs out all isolates-related changes.
Good bye, isolates. We hardly knew ye.
