Having a single plug_closing() function covering various kinds of
closure is reasonably convenient from the point of view of Plug
implementations, but it's annoying for callers, who all have to fill
in pointless NULL and 0 parameters in the cases where they're not
used.
Added some inline helper functions in network.h alongside the main
plug_closing() dispatch wrappers, so that each kind of connection
closure can present a separate API for the Socket side of the
interface, without complicating the vtable for the Plug side.
Also, added OS-specific extra helpers in the Unix and Windows
directories, which centralise the job of taking an OS error code (of
whatever kind) and translating it into its error message.
In passing, this removes the horrible ad-hoc made-up error codes in
proxy.h, which is OK, because nothing checked for them anyway, and
also I'm about to do an API change to plug_closing proper that removes
the need for them.
It was totally unused. No implementation of the 'closing' method in a
Plug vtable was checking it for any reason at all, except for
ProxySocket which captured it from its client in order to pass on to
its server (which, perhaps after further iterations of ProxySocket,
would have ended up ignoring it similarly). And every caller of
plug_closing set it to 0 (aka false), except for the one in sshproxy.c
which passed true (but it would have made no difference to anyone).
The comment in network.h refers to a FIXME comment which was in
try_send() when that code was written (see winnet.c in commit
7b0e082700). That FIXME is long gone, replaced by a use of a
toplevel callback. So I think the aim must have been to avoid
re-entrancy when sk_write called try_send which encountered a socket
error and called back to plug_closing - but that's long since fixed by
other means now.
In the case where these socket types are constructed because of a
local proxy command, we do actually have a SockAddr representing the
logical host we were trying to make a connection to. So we might as
well store it in the socket implementation, and then we can include it
in the PLUGLOG_CONNECT_SUCCESS call to make the log message more
informative.
Now the non-SSH backends critically depend on it, it's important not
to forget to send it, for any socket type that's going to be used for
any of those backends. But ProxySocket, and the Unix and Windows
'socket' types wrapping pipes to local subprocesses, were not doing
so.
Some of these socket types don't have a SockAddr available to
represent the destination host. (Sometimes the concept isn't even
meaningful). Therefore, I've also expanded the semantics of
PLUGLOG_CONNECT_SUCCESS so that the addr parameter is allowed to be
NULL, and invented a noncommittal fallback version of the log message
in that situation.
The call to plug_closing very likely destroys the FdSocket entirely,
so we shouldn't wait until after that to clean up its input fd via
lots of dereferences.
This gets rid of all those annoying 'win', 'ux' and 'gtk' prefixes
which made filenames annoying to type and to tab-complete. Also, as
with my other recent renaming sprees, I've taken the opportunity to
expand and clarify some of the names so that they're not such cryptic
abbreviations.
