We already have a state RUNNING and EXITING when we dispatch regular and
exit callbacks. Let's introduce a new state called PREPARING that is
active while we invoke preparation callbacks. This way we have a state
each for all three kinds of event handlers.
The states are currently not documented, hence let's add a new state to
the end, before we start documenting this.
Let's make _ref() calls happy when NULL is passed to them, and simply
return NULL without any assertion logic. This makes them nicely
symmetric to the _unref() calls which also are happy to take NULL and
become NOPs then.
Rather than passing a pointer to return the result, return it directly
from the function calls.
Also, return the result in native endianess, and let the callers care
about the conversion. For hash tables and bloom filters, we don't care,
but in order to keep MAC addresses and DHCP client IDs stable, we
explicitly convert to LE.
Change the "out" parameter from uint8_t[8] to uint64_t. On architectures which
enforce pointer alignment this fixes crashes when we previously cast an
unaligned array to uint64_t*, and on others this should at least improve
performance as the compiler now aligns these properly.
This also simplifies the code in most cases by getting rid of typecasts. The
only place which we can't change is struct duid's en.id, as that is _packed_
and public API, so we can't enforce alignment of the "id" field and have to
use memcpy instead.
This way we do not rely on the size MAX* constants from the kernel headers, as these will
be out-of-sync in case we have old headers and new defines in missing.h.
We already filter out 0, and as -1 is usually special (meaning infinity,
as in USEC_INFINITY) we should better not accept it either. Better safe
than sorry...
Let's make sure we don't start blocking on sd_notify() earlier than
necessary, let's bump the socket buffer sizes to 8M.
We already do something similar for our logging socket buffers, hence
apply a similar bump here.
The files are named too generically, so that they might conflict with
the upstream project headers. Hence, let's add a "-util" suffix, to
clarify that this are just our utility headers and not any official
upstream headers.
There are more than enough calls doing string manipulations to deserve
its own files, hence do something about it.
This patch also sorts the #include blocks of all files that needed to be
updated, according to the sorting suggestions from CODING_STYLE. Since
pretty much every file needs our string manipulation functions this
effectively means that most files have sorted #include blocks now.
Also touches a few unrelated include files.
