2012-07-23Big comment and naming cleanup. Ready for prime-time.Monty Brandenberg
Add to-do list to _httpinternal.h to guide anyone who wants to pitch in and help.
2012-07-16SH-3189 Remove/improve naive data structuresMonty Brandenberg
When releasing HTTP waiters, avoid unnecessary sort activity. For Content-Type in responses, let libcurl do the work and removed my parsing of headers. Drop Content-Encoding as libcurl will deal with that. If anyone is interested, they can parse.
2012-07-07SH-3185 Fill in some FIXME/TODO casesMonty Brandenberg
Also added some comments and changed the callback userdata argument to be an HttpOpRequest rather than a libcurl handle. Less code, less clutter.
2012-06-08Implemented HTTP retry for requests. Went in rather easily whichMonty Brandenberg
surprised me. Added a retry queue similar to ready queue to the policy object which is sorted by retry time. Currently do five retries (after the initial try) delayed by .25, .5, 1, 2 and 5 seconds. Removed the retry logic from the lltexturefetch module. Upped the waiting time in the unit test for the retries. People won't like this but tough, need tests.
2012-06-06Policy + caching fixes + https support + POST workingMonty Brandenberg
Implemented first global policy definitions to support SSL CA certificate configuration to support https: operations. Fixed HTTP 206 status handling to match what is currently being done by grid services and to lay a foundation for fixes that will be a response to ER-1824. More libcurl CURLOPT options set on easy handles to do peer verification in the traditional way. HTTP POST working and now reporting asset metrics back to grid for the viewer's asset system. This uses LLSD so that is also showing as compatible with the new library.
2012-06-01Major steps towards implementing the policy component.Monty Brandenberg
Identified and reacted to the priority inversion problem we have in texturefetch. Includes the introduction of a priority_queue for the requests that are ready. Start some parameterization in anticipation of having policy_class everywhere. Removed _assert.h which isn't really needed in indra codebase. Implemented async setPriority request (which I hope I can get rid of eventually along with all priorities in this library). Converted to using unsigned int for priority rather than float. Implemented POST and did groundwork for PUT.
2012-05-23Integrate llcorehttp library into lltexturefetch design.Monty Brandenberg
This is the first functional viewer pass with the HTTP work of the texture fetch code performed by the llcorehttp library. Not exactly a 'drop-in' replacement but a work-alike with some changes (e.g. handler notification in consumer thread versus responder notification in worker thread). This also includes some temporary changes in the priority scheme to prevent the kind of priority inversion found in VWR-28996. Scheme used here does provide liveness if not optimal responsiveness or order-of-operation. The llcorehttp library at this point is far from optimally performing. Its worker thread is making relatively poor use of cycles it gets and it doesn't idle or sleep intelligently yet. This early integration step helps shake out the interfaces, implementation niceties will be covered soon.
2012-05-08Unit test still giving me issues on the local windows system. Seems to be a ↵Monty Brandenberg
hard stall while allocating the first easy handle in a descent of the global initiailization code but that doesn't seem to be a problem on TC machines. Perhaps the static linking is creating multiple data copies. More work needed.
2012-05-07Build llcorehttp as part of a viewer dependency with unit tests. This requiredMonty Brandenberg
boost::thread and the easiest path to that was to go with the 1.48 Boost release in the 3P tree (eliminating a fork for a modified 1.45 packaging). One unit test, the most important one, is failing in test_httprequest but that can be attended to later. This test issues a GET to http://localhost:2/ and that is hitting the wire but the libcurl plumbing isn't delivering the failure, only the eventual timeout. An unexpected change in behavior.
2012-04-26Bring llcorehttp into the compile and link phases. Windows looks okay ↵Monty Brandenberg
though it's a dead library so far.
2012-04-23Okay, imported the core-http library and got it compiling suspiciously easily.Monty Brandenberg
The unit/integration tests don't work yet as I'm still battling cmake/autobuild as usual but first milestone passed.
