Detailed Description

SSL/TLS connected socket, for data communication.

This class is used in two contexts:

  • A TLS client creates a TLSConnection instance and connects to a server.
  • A TLS server creates a TLSServer instance and waits for clients. For each client session, a TLSConnection instance is created.

Possible public servers to test various invalid certificates:

Member Function Documentation

◆ connect()

virtual bool ts::TLSConnection::connect ( const IPSocketAddress addr,
IOSB iosb = nullptr 
)
overridevirtual

Connect to a remote address and port.

Use this method when acting as TCP client. Do not use on server side: the TCPConnection object is passed to TCPServer::accept() which establishes the connection.

Parameters
[in]addrIP address and port of the server to connect to.
[in,out]iosbAddress of an IOSB structure. If non-null, the socket must be in non-blocking mode. When null, the socket must be in blocking mode (the default). See the description of IOSB. Important: The parameter iosb should not be used by applications. It should be used only by "reactive classes", which work in combination with a Reactor.
Returns
True on success, false on error. In case of non-blocking mode, if the connection is successfully started but still pending, iosb->pending is set to true and the method returns true.

Reimplemented from ts::TCPConnection.

◆ closeWriter()

virtual bool ts::TLSConnection::closeWriter ( bool  silent = false)
overridevirtual

Close the write direction of the connection.

The application shall call this routine after sending the last message but may still want to receive messages, waiting for the peer to voluntary disconnect.

Parameters
[in]silentIf true, do not report errors through the logger. This is typically useful when the socket is in some error condition and closing it is necessary although it may generate additional meaningless errors.
Returns
True on success, false on error.

Reimplemented from ts::TCPConnection.

◆ disconnect()

virtual bool ts::TLSConnection::disconnect ( bool  silent = false)
overridevirtual

Disconnect from remote partner.

Parameters
[in]silentIf true, do not report errors through the logger. This is typically useful when the socket is in some error condition and closing it is necessary although it may generate additional meaningless errors.
Returns
True on success, false on error.

Reimplemented from ts::TCPConnection.

◆ readStream() [1/2]

virtual bool ts::TLSConnection::readStream ( void *  addr,
size_t  size,
const AbortInterface abort = nullptr 
)
overridevirtual

Read complete data from the stream.

Read exactly size bytes, waiting if necessary.

Synchronization: There is no iosb parameter because this method uses blocking I/O by design. An error is returned if the instance of the class which implements StreamInterface is in non-blocking mode.

Parameters
[out]addrAddress of the buffer for the incoming data.
[in]sizeSize in bytes of the buffer.
[in]abortIf non-zero, invoked when I/O is interrupted (in case of user-interrupt, return, otherwise retry).
Returns
True on success, false on error or it less than size bytes could be read.

Reimplemented from ts::TCPConnection.

◆ readStream() [2/2]

virtual bool ts::TLSConnection::readStream ( void *  addr,
size_t  max_size,
size_t &  ret_size,
const AbortInterface abort = nullptr,
IOSB iosb = nullptr 
)
overridevirtual

Read some data from the stream.

Wait and read at least one byte. Don't try to read exactly max_size bytes. If ret_size is less than max_bytes, it is possible to read more.

Parameters
[out]addrAddress of the buffer for the incoming data.
[in]max_sizeMaximum size in bytes of the buffer.
[out]ret_sizeReturned input size in bytes. If zero, end of file has been reached or an error occurred.
[in]abortIf non-zero, invoked when I/O is interrupted (in case of user-interrupt, return, otherwise retry).
[in,out]iosbAddress of an IOSB structure. If non-null, the stream must be in non-blocking mode. When null, the stream must be in blocking mode (the default). See the description of ts::NonBlockingDevice::IOSB. Important: The parameter iosb should not be used by applications. It should be used only by "reactive classes", which work in combination with a Reactor.
Returns
True on success, false on error. In case of non-blocking mode, if the I/O is successfully started but still pending, iosb->pending is set to true and the method returns true.

Reimplemented from ts::TCPConnection.

◆ writeStream() [1/2]

virtual bool ts::TLSConnection::writeStream ( const void *  addr,
size_t  size,
IOSB iosb = nullptr 
)
overridevirtual

Write data to the stream.

All bytes are written to the stream, blocking or retrying when necessary when the stream is in blocking mode. The base implementation of writeStream() uses the virtual version with a written_size output parameter.

Parameters
[in]addrAddress of the data to write.
[in]sizeSize in bytes of the data to write.
[in,out]iosbAddress of an IOSB structure. If non-null, the stream must be in non-blocking mode. When null, the stream must be in blocking mode (the default). See the description of ts::NonBlockingDevice::IOSB. Important: The parameter iosb should not be used by applications. It should be used only by "reactive classes", which work in combination with a Reactor.
Returns
True on success, false on error or it less than size bytes could be written. In case of non-blocking mode, if the I/O is successfully started but still pending, iosb->pending is set to true and the method returns true.

Reimplemented from ts::TCPConnection.

Parameters
[in]addrAddress of the data to write.
[in]sizeSize in bytes of the data to write.
[out]written_sizeActually written size in bytes. Can be less than size in case of error in the middle of the write.
[in,out]iosbAddress of an IOSB structure. If non-null, the stream must be in non-blocking mode. When null, the stream must be in blocking mode (the default). See the description of ts::NonBlockingDevice::IOSB. Important: The parameter iosb should not be used by applications. It should be used only by "reactive classes", which work in combination with a Reactor.
Returns
True on success, false on error. In case of non-blocking mode, if the I/O is successfully started but still pending, iosb->pending is set to true and the method returns true.

Returns
True on success, false on error.

◆ bind()

bool ts::Socket::bind ( const IPSocketAddress addr)
inherited

Bind to a local address and port.

The IP address part of the socket address must one of:

  • IPAddress::AnyAddress4.
    • UDP: Any local interface may be used to send or receive UDP datagrams. For each outgoing packet, the actual interface is selected by the kernel based on the routing rules. Incoming UDP packets for the selected port will be accepted from any local interface.
    • TCP client: Any local interface may be used to connect to a server.
    • TCP server: Any local interface may be used to receive incoming client connections.
  • The IP address of an interface of the local system.
    • UDP: Outgoing packets will be unconditionally sent through this interface. Incoming UDP packets for the selected port will be accepted only when they arrive through the selected interface.
    • TCP client: Outgoing connections will be only allowed through this interface.
    • TCP server: Incoming client connections will be accepted only when they arrive through the selected interface.

Special note for receiving multicast on most Unix systems (at least Linux and macOS): The IP address shall be either AnyAddress4 or the multicast group address. Do not specify a local address to receive multicast on Unix.

The port number part of the socket address must be one of:

  • IPSocketAddress::AnyPort. The socket is bound to an arbitrary unused local UDP or TCP port. This is the usual configuration for a TCP client.
  • A specific port number. If this UDP or TCP port is already bound by another local socket of the same type, the bind operation fails, unless the "reuse port" option has already been set.
Parameters
[in]addrLocal socket address to bind to.
Returns
True on success, false on error.

◆ getLocalAddress()

bool ts::Socket::getLocalAddress ( IPSocketAddress addr) const
inherited

◆ isSupportedByReactor()

bool ts::NonBlockingDevice::isSupportedByReactor ( bool  recheck = false)
inherited

Returns
True if the device is supported by a reactor for non-blocking or asynchronous I/O, false otherwise.

◆ IsPendingStatus()

static bool ts::NonBlockingDevice::IsPendingStatus ( int  error_code)
inlinestaticinherited

This static method checks if a system error code means "I/O in progress" (asynchronous I/O) or "I/O would block" (non-blocking I/O).

Parameters
[in]error_codeSystem error code.
Returns
True if error_code is an in-progress/would-block one.

◆ getHandle()

SysHandleType ts::NonBlockingDevice::getHandle ( ) const
inherited

Get the underlying file descriptor or device handle.

This method is reserved for low-level operations and should not be used by normal applications.

On UNIX systems, sockets are standard file descriptors. On Windows systems, sockets and devices handles are two distinct types (SOCKET, an integer type, and HANDLE, a pointer type). However, SOCKET and HANDLE have the same size and can be converted between each other. In practice, all Windows device handles are pointers. When Microsoft decided to implement the BSD socket API, they needed to represent sockets as integers. The integer is simply a cast of the HANDLE pointer.

In practice, the methods getHandle() and getSocket() return the same value, represented as two different portable types, SysHandleType and SysSocketType. Note that this types are defined as their real representation. On UNIX systems, both are defined as int and are compatible. However, on Windows systems, they are defined as HANDLE and SOCKET and are not compatible. So, accidentally mixing the two compiles on UNIX but not on Windows. Be careful to use the right type for the right usage.

There is one important difference between getHandle() and getSocket(): the error values, SYS_HANDLE_INVALID and SYS_SOCKET_INVALID. Be careful, these constants have distinct binary values on Windows. This is the only case were it is not possible to cast between a SysHandleType value and a SysSocketType value. This is why it is recommended to always use getHandle() when a SysHandleType is required and getSocket() when a SysSocketType is required.

A subclass which uses file descriptors or device handles for read, write, or both, must override the methods getReadHandle(), getWriteHandle(), or both. If the two types of operations use the same file descriptor, the two methods must return the same value.

An application should call getReadHandle() for read operations and getWriteHandle() for write operations. The method getHandle() returns getReadHandle() if its returns a valid value, and getWriteHandle() otherwise.

Returns
The underlying file descriptor or device handler. Return SYS_HANDLE_INVALID if the socket is not open.

◆ getSocket()

SysSocketType ts::NonBlockingDevice::getSocket ( ) const
inherited

Get the underlying file descriptor or device handle as a system socket handle.

Returns
The underlying socket descriptor. Return SYS_SOCKET_INVALID if the socket is not open.

◆ getReadSocket()

SysSocketType ts::NonBlockingDevice::getReadSocket ( ) const
inherited

Get the underlying file descriptor or device handle as a system socket handle for read operations.

Returns
The underlying file descriptor for read operations or SYS_SOCKET_INVALID if the socket is not open for read.

◆ getWriteSocket()

SysSocketType ts::NonBlockingDevice::getWriteSocket ( ) const
inherited

Get the underlying file descriptor or device handle as a system socket handle for write operations.

Returns
The underlying file descriptor for read operations or SYS_SOCKET_INVALID if the socket is not open for write.

◆ checkNonBlocking() [1/2]

bool ts::NonBlockingDevice::checkNonBlocking ( bool  non_blocking,
const UChar opname 
)
protectedinherited

Check the blocking mode of a device.

Called by subclass methods which are explicitly called in blocking or non-blocking mode.

Parameters
[in]non_blockingThe required non-blocking mode.
[in]opnameName of the operation, for the error message.
Returns
True on success, false on error.

◆ checkNonBlocking() [2/2]

bool ts::NonBlockingDevice::checkNonBlocking ( IOSB iosb,
const UChar opname 
)
protectedinherited

Check the blocking mode of a device.

Called by subclass methods which are explicitly called in blocking or non-blocking mode.

Parameters
[in,out]iosbAddress of an IOSB structure. If non-null, we are in non-blocking mode. When null, we are in blocking mode. When non-null, pending is reset to false and overlap is zeroed.
[in]opnameName of the operation, for the error message.
Returns
True on success, false on error.

◆ setSystemNonBlocking()

bool ts::NonBlockingDevice::setSystemNonBlocking ( bool  non_blocking)
protectedinherited

Low-level method to set the system file or socket descriptor in non-blocking mode.

Parameters
[in]non_blockingIt true, the device is set in non-blocking mode.
Returns
True on success, false on error.

Summary: Do not use this method unless you exactly know what you are doing.

UNIX: Depending on the way a file descriptor is created, it may be possible to specify the non-blocking mode from the beginning. Or it can be somehow inherited. However, this is not portable.

Examples:

  • On Linux and FreeBSD, a socket can be directly created in non-blocking mode using the flag SOCK_NONBLOCK in the 'type' parameter of the socket() system call. However, it does not work on macOS.
  • On macOS (and maybe FreeBSD), when a server socket is in non-blocking mode, all client session sockets which are created by accept() are also in non-blocking mode. However, on Linux, they are in blocking mode.

In all cases, it is possible to set a file descriptor in non-blocking mode at any time using the method setSystemNonBlocking(). This method uses fcntl(F_SETFL) to alter the file descriptor's flags.

Windows: The natural way of not being blocked on I/O on Windows is asynchronous I/O. To increase the general confusion, there is some form of non-blocking mode on Windows sockets, and only sockets, not other forms of file handles. This mode is activated using "ioctlsocket(fd, FIONBIO, &mode)". When this mode is active, socket I/O become similar to UNIX: they immediately either succeed or fail, but never block. However, there is no way to get notified when the I/O becomes possible. There is no equivalent to epoll (Linux) or kqueue (macOS and BSD). The Windows I/O Completion Ports can only work on asynchronous I/O, using OVERLAPPED structures. Because this form of non-blocking mode is mostly useless in practice, we do not use it and the method setSystemNonBlocking() does nothing on Windows.

◆ genericSystemWrite()

int ts::NonBlockingDevice::genericSystemWrite ( const void *  addr,
size_t  size,
size_t &  written_size,
NonBlockingDevice::IOSB iosb,
uint64_t  position 
)
protectedinherited

Generic system write operation.

This is a convenience method which can be used (or not) by subclasses when the system calls write() (UNIX) or WriteFile() (Windows) are appropriate.

Parameters
[in]addrAddress of the data to write.
[in]sizeSize in bytes of the data to write.
[out]written_sizeActually written size in bytes. Can be less than size in case of error in the middle of the write.
[in,out]iosbAddress of an IOSB structure. If non-null, the stream must be in non-blocking mode. When null, the stream must be in blocking mode (the default). See the description of ts::NonBlockingDevice::IOSB.
[in]positionThis value is only used on Windows with asynchronous I/O on disk file. On Windows, when asynchronous I/O are used on random access files, the file position is not maintained. Each read or write operation is performed at the specified absolute position.
Returns
Error code. When the I/O is non-blocking/asynchronous and pending, return SYS_SUCCESS and iosb->pending is true. Return SYS_EOF when it is no longer possible to write (e.g. broken pipe).

◆ genericSystemRead()

int ts::NonBlockingDevice::genericSystemRead ( void *  addr,
size_t  max_size,
size_t &  ret_size,
const AbortInterface abort,
NonBlockingDevice::IOSB iosb,
uint64_t  position 
)
protectedinherited

Generic system read operation.

This is a convenience method which can be used (or not) by subclasses when the system calls read() (UNIX) or ReadFile() (Windows) are appropriate.

Parameters
[out]addrAddress of the buffer for the incoming data.
[in]max_sizeMaximum size in bytes of the buffer.
[out]ret_sizeReturned input size in bytes. If zero, end of file has been reached or an error occurred.
[in]abortIf non-zero, invoked when I/O is interrupted (in case of user-interrupt, return, otherwise retry).
[in,out]iosbAddress of an IOSB structure. If non-null, the stream must be in non-blocking mode. When null, the stream must be in blocking mode (the default). See the description of ts::NonBlockingDevice::IOSB.
[in]positionThis value is only used on Windows with asynchronous I/O on disk file. On Windows, when asynchronous I/O are used on random access files, the file position is not maintained. Each read or write operation is performed at the specified absolute position.
Returns
Error code. When the I/O is non-blocking/asynchronous and pending, return SYS_SUCCESS and iosb->pending is true. Return SYS_EOF when it is no longer possible to read.

◆ report()

overridevirtualinherited

Access the Report which is associated with this object.

Can be called from another thread only if the Report object is thread-safe.

Returns
A reference to the associated report.

Implements ts::ReporterInterface.

◆ setReport() [1/2]

Report * ts::ReporterBase::setReport ( Report report)
inherited

Associate this object with another Report to log errors.

Parameters
[in]reportWhere to report errors. The report object must remain valid as long as this object exists or setReport() is used with another Report object. If report is null, log messages are discarded.
Returns
The address of the previous Report object or a null pointer if there was none.

◆ setReport() [2/2]

ReporterBase * ts::ReporterBase::setReport ( ReporterBase delegate)
inherited

Associate this object with another ReporterBase to log errors.

Parameters
[in]delegateUse the report of another ReporterBase. If delegate is null, the previous explicit Report is used..
Returns
The address of the previous ReporterBase object or a null pointer if there was none.

◆ muteReport()

bool ts::ReporterBase::muteReport ( bool  mute)
inherited

Temporarily mute the associated report.

Parameters
[in]muteIt true, report() will return a null report (log messages are discarded), until muteReport() is invoked again with mute set to false.
Returns
Previous state of the mute field.

◆ SilentLevel()

static int ts::ReporterBase::SilentLevel ( bool  silent,
int  default_severity = Severity::Error 
)
inlinestaticinherited

Compute a log severity level from a "silent" parameter.

Some subclass methods have a "silent" parameter to avoid reporting errors which may be insignificant, typically when closing a device after an error, in which case the close operation may produce other errors if the previous error left the device in an inconsistent state. While those errors should not be displayed as errors, we still display them at debug level.

Parameters
[in]silentIf true, do not report errors, report debug messages instead.
[in]default_severityDefault severity, in non-silent mode (error by default).
Returns
Error when silent is false, Debug otherwise.

Parameters
[in]handlerThe object to no longer call on open() and close().

◆ callSubscribers()

template<typename HANDLER , typename F >
requires std::derived_from<HANDLER, SubscriptionHandlerInterface>
void ts::SubscriptionBase::callSubscribers ( F &&  func)
inlineprotectedinherited

◆ WriteStreamHelper()

template<class T >
requires std::derived_from<T, StreamInterface>
static bool ts::StreamInterface::WriteStreamHelper ( T *  obj,
const void *  addr,
size_t  size,
NonBlockingDevice::IOSB iosb 
)
inlinestaticprotectedinherited

Implementation helper for fixed-size version of writeStream().

Often, the fixed-size version can be implemented using the variable-size version. However, this works well at a given derivation stage only.

Assume that:

  • We implement the fixed-size version inside StreamInterface, using the virtual variable-size version.
  • Class A implements StreamInterface and implements the variable-size version only. The base fixed-size version StreamInterface::writeStream() uses the virtual variable-size version A::writeStream() and it works well.
  • Class B derives from A. It is an encrypted version of A (think A=TCP, B=TLS). If the implementation of B wants to write raw data (after encryption) calling the fixed-size version A::writeStream(), then this will end up calling the virtual variable-size version B::writeStream(), which will try to encrypt already encrypted data. This is why it is important that each layer of inheritance calls its own version of writeStream().
Template Parameters
TA subclass of StreamInterface. Write data to the stream. All bytes are written to the stream, blocking or retrying when necessary when the stream is in blocking mode. The base implementation of writeStream() uses the virtual version with a written_size output parameter.
Parameters
[in,out]objObject of class T.
[in]addrAddress of the data to write.
[in]sizeSize in bytes of the data to write.
[in,out]iosbAddress of an IOSB structure. If non-null, the stream must be in non-blocking mode. When null, the stream must be in blocking mode (the default). See the description of ts::NonBlockingDevice::IOSB. Important: The parameter iosb should not be used by applications. It should be used only by "reactive classes", which work in combination with a Reactor.
Returns
True on success, false on error or it less than size bytes could be written. In case of non-blocking mode, if the I/O is successfully started but still pending, iosb->pending is set to true and the method returns true.

◆ ReadStreamHelper()

template<class T >
requires std::derived_from<T, StreamInterface>
static bool ts::StreamInterface::ReadStreamHelper ( T *  obj,
void *  addr,
size_t  size,
