Also, if an error is already provided, then raise the provided
error, rather than throwing it with a less helpful 'stdout cannot
be closed' message.
This is important for properly handling EPIPEs.
- watch for the death of child processes and fail the test if they all die
- use setTimeout to fail the test if responses are not received and processed in 5000ms
- throw if the ttl argument is not a number
- return the ttl argument (not particulary useful but it's what v0.4 did)
Note that the 0 < ttl < 256 check has *not* been reinstated. On Linux, -1 is a
valid argument to setsockopt(IPPROTO_IP, IP_TTL).
Change formatProperty in util.js to use Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor
instead of __lookup[GS]etter__.
Use the cached value from the descriptor to reduce number of property
lookups from 3 to 1.
Fallback to standard lookup if the descriptor is empty. This doesn't
ever happen with normal JS objects (this function is called only when
the key exists) but apparently does with Node's custom ENV interface.
Fixes: #2109.
As RFC 2616 says we should, assume that servers will provide a persistent
connection by default.
> A significant difference between HTTP/1.1 and earlier versions of
> HTTP is that persistent connections are the default behavior of any
> HTTP connection. That is, unless otherwise indicated, the client
> SHOULD assume that the server will maintain a persistent connection,
> even after error responses from the server.
> HTTP/1.1 applications that do not support persistent connections MUST
> include the "close" connection option in every message.
Fixes#2436.
This was a very significant improvement that should have been called out
explicitly.
I added 'review all libuv changes' to my build checklist. It won't
happen again. Sorry, @igorzi.
uncaughtException handlers installed by the user override the default one that
the cluster module installs, the one that kills off the master process.
Fixes#2556.
