- Add GetRedbeanVersion() to redbean (#97)
- Rename GetVersion to GetHttpVersion() for consistency (#97)
- Update Content-Length format to use a proper size modifier (#97, #218)
This change makes SSL virtual hosting possible. You can now load
multiple certificates for multiple domains and redbean will just
figure out which one to use, even if you only have 1 ip address.
You can also use a jumbo certificate that lists all your domains
in the the subject alternative names.
This change also makes performance improvements to MbedTLS. Here
are some benchmarks vs. cc1920749e

There aren't any special tricks to the performance imporvements.
It's mostly due to code cleanup, assembly and intel instructions
like mulx, adox, and adcx.
The following Lua APIs have been added:
- IsDaemon() → bool
- ProgramPidPath(str)
The following Lua hooks have been added:
- OnClientConnection(ip:int,port:int,serverip:int,serverport:int) → bool
- OnProcessCreate(pid:int,ip:int,port:int,serverip:int,serverport:int)
- OnProcessDestroy(pid:int)
- OnServerStart()
- OnServerStop()
- OnWorkerStart()
- OnWorkerStop()
redbean now does a better job at applying gzip on the fly from the local
filesystem, using a streaming chunked api with constant memory, which is
useful for doing things like serving a 4gb text file off NFS, and having
it start transmitting in milliseconds. redbean will also compute entropy
on the beginnings of files to determine if compression is profitable.
This change pays off technical debts relating to memory, such as relying
on exit() to free() allocations. That's now mostly fixed so it should be
easier now to spot memory leaks in malloc traces.
This change also fixes bugs and makes improvements to our SSL support.
Uniprocess mode failed handshakes are no longer an issue. Token Alpn is
offered so curl -v looks less weird. Hybrid SSL certificate loading is
now smarter about naming conflicts. Self-signed CA root anchors will no
longer be delivered to the client during the handshake.
You can now say the following in your redbean Lua code:
status,headers,payload = Fetch("https://foo.example")
The following Lua APIs have been introduced:
- Fetch(str) → str,{str:str},str
- GetHttpReason(int) → str
- GetHttpReason(int) → str
- ProgramSslFetchVerify(bool)
- ProgramSslClientVerify(bool)
The following flags have been introduced:
- `-j` enables client SSL verification
- `-k` disables Fetch() SSL verification
- `-t INT` may now be passed a negative value for keepalive
Lua exceptions now invoke Cosmopolitan's garbage collector when
unwinding the stack. So it's now safe to use _gc() w/ Lua 𝔱𝔥𝔯𝔬𝔴

Under MODE=tiny or MODE=tinylinux we now go back to using my homebrew
version of DEFLATE decompression which is 10x smaller but 10x slower
than Chromium Zlib. In tiny mode we also disable compressed responses
howewver redbean will still serve precompressed responses. This change
also removes a few other dependencies like strftime() and getaddrinfo()
which means you can't say `-l localhost` in tiny mode, you have to say
something like `-l 127.0.0.1`.
