It seems like a good idea on the face of it, but lowWaterMarks are
actually not useful, and in practice should always be set to zero.
It would be worthwhile for writers if we actually did some kind of
writev() type of thing, but actually this just delays calling write()
and the overhead of doing a bunch of Buffer copies is not worth the
slight benefit of calling write() fewer times.
Running repl.start without the prompt set produces this error:

http.ServerRequest and http.ClientResponse are merged into http.IncomingMessage
which has fields for both, and acts as a Readable Stream and EventEmitter.
Fixes #3851.
mainly to allow native addons to export single functions on `exports`
rather than being restricted to operating on an existing `exports`
object.
added link to addons repo in docs
Argument checks were simplified by setting all undefined/NaN or out of
bounds values equal to their defaults.
Also copy() tests had a flaw that each buffer had the same bit pattern at
the same offset. So even if the copy failed, the bit-by-bit comparison
would have still been true. This was fixed by filling each buffer with a
unique value before copy operations.
This adds a proxy for bytesWritten to the tls.CryptoStream. This
change makes the connection object more similar between HTTP and
HTTPS requests in an effort to avoid confusion.
See issue #4650 for more background information.
We detect for non-string and non-buffer values in onread and
turn the stream into an "objectMode" stream.
If we are in "objectMode" mode then howMuchToRead will
always return 1, state.length will always have 1 appended
to it when there is a new item and fromList always takes
the first value from the list.
This means that for object streams, the n in read(n) is
ignored and read() will always return a single value
Fixed a bug with unpipe where the pipe would break because
the flowing state was not reset to false.
Fixed a bug with sync cb(null, null) in _read which would
forget to end the readable stream
Removed range checks when writing float values, and removed a few
includes and defines. Also updated api docs to reflect that invalid 32
bit float is an unspecified behavior.
The first example in cluster.markdown requires NODE_DEBUG env to show
debug message.
And also fix the message because it was a little bit different with
the actual message.
Keeping list of all sockets that were sent to child process causes memory
leak and thus unacceptable (see #4587). However `server.close()` should
still work properly.
This commit introduces two options:
* child.send(socket, { track: true }) - will send socket and track its status.
You should use it when you want to receive `close` event on sent sockets.
* child.send(socket) - will send socket without tracking it status. This
performs much better, because of smaller number of RTT between master and
child.
With both of these options `server.close()` will wait for all sent
sockets to get closed.

This commit introduces two options:
* child.send(socket, { track: true }) - will send socket and track its status.
You should use it when you want `server.connections` to be a reliable
number, and receive `close` event on sent sockets.
* child.send(socket) - will send socket without tracking it status. This
performs much better, because of smaller number of RTT between master and
child.

'Stability: 5' is described as 'Locked' not as 'API Locked'
in other documents.
For example:
- `/doc/api/assert.markdown`
- `/doc/api/util.markdown`
This word was injected in 192192a.
Allows for arbitrary path to executable spawned using `fork`. This
fixes some issues around running multiple versions of node with workers
and allows arbitrary IPC with compatible executables.
Fixes #3248.
While it's true that error objects have a history of getting snake_case
properties attached by the host system, it's a point of confusion to
Node users that comes up a lot. It's still 'experimental', so best to
change this sooner rather than later.
Noted in @shtylman's #3898, API stability notes are easy to overlook
in the html documentation. This can be especially troublesome if the API
is deprecated. This commit gives visual feedback by adding in a class
to the html docs when they're generated. The API headers with
corresponding colors are also listed in the 'About this Documentation'
page for easy reference.
Starting a line with `**bold**` text makes it think that it's a link,
and get confused.
This should really be fixed properly in the doc generator, but for now,
it's not a major issue. It's probably just a matter of updating marked.
Don't allow connections to stall indefinitely if the SSL/TLS handshake does
not complete.
Adds a new tls.Server and https.Server configuration option, handshakeTimeout.
Fixes #4355.
Use a default callback if the user omitted one. Avoids errors like the one
below:
fs.js:777
if (err) return callback(err);
^
TypeError: object is not a function
at fs.appendFile (fs.js:777:21)
at Object.oncomplete (fs.js:297:15)
This commit fixes the behavior of fs.lchmod(), fs.lchown() and fs.readFile()
when the callback is omitted. Before, they silently swallowed errors.
Fixes #4352.
This is a flag to make it easier for users to upgrade through the
breaking crypto change, and easier for us to switch it back if it's a
problem.
Explicitly set default encoding to 'buffer' in other tests, in case it
ever changes back.
crypto: Hash and Hmac default to buffers
crypto: Move Cipher encoding logic to JS
crypto: Move Cipheriv encoding logic to JS
crypto: Move Decipher encoding logic to JS
crypto: Move Decipheriv into JS, default to buffers
crypto: Move Sign class to JS
crypto: Better encoding handling in Hash.update
crypto: Move Verify class to JS
crypto: Move DiffieHellman to JS, default to buffers
crypto: Move DiffieHellmanGroup to JS, default to buffers
Also, create a test for this feature
* The 'close' event doesn't emit an error object.
* It's possible for a 'close' event to come after an 'end' event, contrary to
what the documentation said.
Fixes #4116.
Consolidates all the formatting options into an "options" object argument.
This is so that we don't have to be constantly remembering the order of
the arguments and so that we can add more formatting options easily.
Closes #4085.
Listen for the 'clientError' event that is emitted when a renegotation attack
is detected and close the connection.
Fixes test/pummel/test-https-ci-reneg-attack.js
This reverts commit 790d651f0d.
This makes Duplex streams unworkable, and would only ever be a special
case for HTTP responses, which is not ideal.
Intead, we're going to just bless the 'finish' event for all Writable
streams in 0.10
This commit changes the default value of the rejectUnauthorized option from
false to true.
What that means is that tls.connect(), https.get() and https.request() will
reject invalid server certificates from now on, including self-signed
certificates.
There is an escape hatch: if you set the NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED
environment variable to the literal string "0", node.js reverts to its
old behavior.
Fixes #3949.
fs.watch() is implemented on all supported platforms but, depending on the
object being watched, doesn't always work reliably (or at all).
Fixes #4005.
It takes an optional "expected exception" argument that is not used meaningfully
but is nevertheless documented. Undocument it, it confuses casual readers of the
documentation.
Fixes #3935.
Update the default cipher list from RC4-SHA:AES128-SHA:AES256-SHA
to ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:AES128-GCM-SHA256:RC4:HIGH:!MD5:!aNULL:!EDH
in order to mitigate BEAST attacks.
The documentation suggested AES256-SHA but unfortunately that's a CBC cipher
and therefore susceptible to attacks.
Fixes #3900.
This commit reverts the following commits (in reverse chronological order):
74d076c errnoException must be done immediately
ddb02b9 net: support Server.listen(Pipe)
085a098 cluster: do not use internal server API
d138875 net: lazy listen on handler
Commit d138875 introduced a backwards incompatible change that broke the
simple/test-net-socket-timeout and simple/test-net-lazy-listen tests - it
defers listening on the target port until the `net.Server` instance has at
least one 'connection' event listener.
The other patches had to be reverted in order to revert d138875.
Fixes #3832.
This is rewrite of #3701 and #3603 before.
This patch introduce `util.inspect.styles`
and `util.inspect.colors` objects, which enables customization
of color sequences.
Before this commit, `fs.unwatchFile(path)` removed *all* listeners for `path`.
The function is overloaded now: `fs.unwatchFile(path)` still removes all
listeners, but `fs.unwatchFile(path, cb)` lets you remove a specific listener.
Fixes #3660.
