2021-11-24Sending shared port to application prototype.Max Romanov1-0/+12
Application process started with shared port (and queue) already configured. But still waits for PORT_ACK message from router to start request processing (so-called "ready state"). Waiting for router confirmation is necessary. Otherwise, the application may produce response and send it to router before the router have the information about the application process. This is a subject of further optimizations.
2021-11-09Introducing application prototype processes.Tiago Natel de Moura1-5/+5
2021-10-28Moving request limit control to libunit.Max Romanov1-2/+2
Introducting application graceful stop. For now only used when application process reach request limit value. This closes #585 issue on GitHub.
2020-10-28Preserving the app port write socket.Max Romanov1-1/+7
The socket is required for intercontextual communication in multithreaded apps.
2020-08-11Moving file descriptor blocking to libunit.Max Romanov1-2/+0
The default libunit behavior relies on blocking the recv() call for port file descriptors, which an application may override if needed. For external applications, port file descriptors were toggled to blocking mode before the exec() call. If the exec() call failed, descriptor remained blocked, so the process hanged while trying to read from it. This patch moves file descriptor mode switch inside libunit.
2020-08-11Libunit refactoring: port management.Max Romanov1-2/+12
- Changed the port management callbacks to notifications, which e. g. avoids the need to call the libunit function - Added context and library instance reference counts for a safer resource release - Added the router main port initialization
2020-05-28Added "rootfs" feature.Tiago Natel de Moura1-0/+2
2020-03-09Refactor of process management.Tiago Natel de Moura1-5/+6
The process abstraction has changed to: setup(task, process) start(task, process_data) prefork(task, process, mp) The prefork() occurs in the main process right before fork. The file src/nxt_main_process.c is completely free of process specific logic. The creation of a process now supports a PROCESS_CREATED state. The The setup() function of each process can set its state to either created or ready. If created, a MSG_PROCESS_CREATED is sent to main process, where external setup can be done (required for rootfs under container). The core processes (discovery, controller and router) doesn't need external setup, then they all proceeds to their start() function straight away. In the case of applications, the load of the module happens at the process setup() time and The module's init() function has changed to be the start() of the process. The module API has changed to: setup(task, process, conf) start(task, data) As a direct benefit of the PROCESS_CREATED message, the clone(2) of processes using pid namespaces now doesn't need to create a pipe to make the child block until parent setup uid/gid mappings nor it needs to receive the child pid.
2019-12-24Adding "limits/shm" configuration validation and parsing.Max Romanov1-2/+2
2019-02-28Introducing Java Servlet Container beta.Max Romanov1-0/+1
2018-10-09Renamed "go" application type to "external".Valentin Bartenev1-0/+178
There's nothing specific to Go language. This type of application object can be used to run any external application that utilizes libunit API.
