18Library Version
19---------------
20
21LSQUIC follows the following versioning model.  The version number
22has the form MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, where
23
24- MAJOR changes when a large redesign occurs;
25- MINOR changes when an API change or another significant change occurs; and
26- PATCH changes when a bug is fixed or another small, API-compatible change occurs.

28QUIC Versions
29-------------
30
31LSQUIC supports two types of QUIC protocol: Google QUIC and IETF QUIC.  The
32former will at some point become obsolete, while the latter is still being
33developed by the IETF.  Both types are included in a single enum:
34
35.. type:: enum lsquic_version
36
37    .. member:: LSQVER_043
38
39        Google QUIC version Q043
40
41    .. member:: LSQVER_046
42
43        Google QUIC version Q046
44
45    .. member:: LSQVER_050
46
47        Google QUIC version Q050
48
49    .. member:: LSQVER_ID27

57    .. member:: LSQVER_ID29
58
59        IETF QUIC version ID 29
60
61    .. member:: N_LSQVER
62
63        Special value indicating the number of versions in the enum.  It
64        may be used as argument to :func:`lsquic_engine_connect()`.
65
66Several version lists (as bitmasks) are defined in :file:`lsquic.h`:
67
68.. macro:: LSQUIC_SUPPORTED_VERSIONS
69
70List of all supported versions.
71
72.. macro:: LSQUIC_FORCED_TCID0_VERSIONS
73
74List of versions in which the server never includes CID in short packets.
75
76.. macro:: LSQUIC_EXPERIMENTAL_VERSIONS
77
78Experimental versions.
79
80.. macro:: LSQUIC_DEPRECATED_VERSIONS
81
82Deprecated versions.
83
84.. macro:: LSQUIC_GQUIC_HEADER_VERSIONS
85
86Versions that have Google QUIC-like headers.  Only Q043 remains in this
87list.

91IETF QUIC versions.
92
93.. macro:: LSQUIC_IETF_DRAFT_VERSIONS

98LSQUIC Types
99------------
100
101LSQUIC declares several types used by many of its public functions.  They are:
102
103.. type:: lsquic_engine_t
104
105    Instance of LSQUIC engine.
106
107.. type:: lsquic_conn_t
108
109    QUIC connection.
110
111.. type:: lsquic_stream_t
112
113    QUIC stream.
114
115.. type:: lsquic_stream_id_t
116
117    Stream ID.
118
119.. type:: lsquic_conn_ctx_t
120
121    Connection context.  This is the return value of :member:`lsquic_stream_if.on_new_conn`.
122    To LSQUIC, this is just an opaque pointer.  User code is expected to
123    use it for its own purposes.
124
125.. type:: lsquic_stream_ctx_t
126
127    Stream context.  This is the return value of :func:`on_new_stream()`.
128    To LSQUIC, this is just an opaque pointer.  User code is expected to
129    use it for its own purposes.
130
131.. type:: lsquic_http_headers_t
132
133    HTTP headers
134
135Library Initialization
136----------------------
137
138Before using the library, internal structures must be initialized using
139the global initialization function:
140
141::
142
143    if (0 == lsquic_global_init(LSQUIC_GLOBAL_CLIENT|LSQUIC_GLOBAL_SERVER))
144        /* OK, do something useful */
145        ;
146
147This call only needs to be made once.  Afterwards, any number of LSQUIC
148engines may be instantiated.
149
150After a process is done using LSQUIC, it should clean up:
151
152::
153
154    lsquic_global_cleanup();
155
156Logging
157-------
158
159.. type:: struct lsquic_logger_if
160
161    .. member:: int     (*log_buf)(void *logger_ctx, const char *buf, size_t len)
162
163.. function:: void lsquic_logger_init (const struct lsquic_logger_if *logger_if, void *logger_ctx, enum lsquic_logger_timestamp_style)
164
165    Call this if you want to do something with LSQUIC log messages, as they are thrown out by default.
166
167.. function:: int lsquic_set_log_level (const char *log_level)
168
169    Set log level for all LSQUIC modules.
170
171    :param log_level: Acceptable values are debug, info, notice, warning, error, alert, emerg, crit (case-insensitive).
172    :return: 0 on success or -1 on failure (invalid log level).
173
174.. function:: int lsquic_logger_lopt (const char *log_specs)
175
176    Set log level for a particular module or several modules.
177
178    :param log_specs:
179
180        One or more "module=level" specifications serapated by comma.
181        For example, "event=debug,engine=info".  See `List of Log Modules`_
182
183Engine Instantiation and Destruction
184------------------------------------
185
186To use the library, an instance of the ``struct lsquic_engine`` needs to be
187created:
188
189.. function:: lsquic_engine_t *lsquic_engine_new (unsigned flags, const struct lsquic_engine_api *api)
190
191    Create a new engine.
192
193    :param flags: This is is a bitmask of :macro:`LSENG_SERVER` and
194                :macro:`LSENG_HTTP`.
195    :param api: Pointer to an initialized :type:`lsquic_engine_api`.
196
197    The engine can be instantiated either in server mode (when ``LSENG_SERVER``
198    is set) or client mode.  If you need both server and client in your program,
199    create two engines (or as many as you'd like).
200
201    Specifying ``LSENG_HTTP`` flag enables the HTTP functionality: HTTP/2-like
202    for Google QUIC connections and HTTP/3 functionality for IETF QUIC
203    connections.
204
205.. macro:: LSENG_SERVER
206
207    One of possible bitmask values passed as first argument to
208    :type:`lsquic_engine_new`.  When set, the engine instance
209    will be in the server mode.
210
211.. macro:: LSENG_HTTP
212
213    One of possible bitmask values passed as first argument to
214    :type:`lsquic_engine_new`.  When set, the engine instance
215    will enable HTTP functionality.
216
217.. function:: void lsquic_engine_cooldown (lsquic_engine_t *engine)
218
219    This function closes all mini connections and marks all full connections
220    as going away.  In server mode, this also causes the engine to stop
221    creating new connections.
222
223.. function:: void lsquic_engine_destroy (lsquic_engine_t *engine)
224
225    Destroy engine and all its resources.
226
227Engine Callbacks
228----------------
229
230``struct lsquic_engine_api`` contains a few mandatory members and several
231optional members.
232
233.. type:: struct lsquic_engine_api
234
235    .. member:: const struct lsquic_stream_if       *ea_stream_if
236    .. member:: void                                *ea_stream_if_ctx
237
238        ``ea_stream_if`` is mandatory.  This structure contains pointers
239        to callbacks that handle connections and stream events.
240
241    .. member:: lsquic_packets_out_f                 ea_packets_out
242    .. member:: void                                *ea_packets_out_ctx
243
244        ``ea_packets_out`` is used by the engine to send packets.
245
246    .. member:: const struct lsquic_engine_settings *ea_settings
247
248        If ``ea_settings`` is set to NULL, the engine uses default settings
249        (see :func:`lsquic_engine_init_settings()`)
250
251    .. member:: lsquic_lookup_cert_f                 ea_lookup_cert
252    .. member:: void                                *ea_cert_lu_ctx
253
254        Look up certificate.  Mandatory in server mode.
255
256    .. member:: struct ssl_ctx_st *                (*ea_get_ssl_ctx)(void *peer_ctx)
257
258        Get SSL_CTX associated with a peer context.  Mandatory in server
259        mode.  This is use for default values for SSL instantiation.
260
261    .. member:: const struct lsquic_hset_if         *ea_hsi_if
262    .. member:: void                                *ea_hsi_ctx
263
264        Optional header set interface.  If not specified, the incoming headers
265        are converted to HTTP/1.x format and are read from stream and have to
266        be parsed again.
267
268    .. member:: const struct lsquic_shared_hash_if  *ea_shi
269    .. member:: void                                *ea_shi_ctx
270
271        Shared hash interface can be used to share state between several
272        processes of a single QUIC server.
273
274    .. member:: const struct lsquic_packout_mem_if  *ea_pmi
275    .. member:: void                                *ea_pmi_ctx
276
277        Optional set of functions to manage memory allocation for outgoing
278        packets.
279
280    .. member:: lsquic_cids_update_f                 ea_new_scids
281    .. member:: lsquic_cids_update_f                 ea_live_scids
282    .. member:: lsquic_cids_update_f                 ea_old_scids
283    .. member:: void                                *ea_cids_update_ctx
284
285        In a multi-process setup, it may be useful to observe the CID
286        lifecycle.  This optional set of callbacks makes it possible.
287
288    .. member:: const char                          *ea_alpn
289
290        The optional ALPN string is used by the client if :macro:`LSENG_HTTP`
291        is not set.
292
293.. _apiref-engine-settings:
294
295Engine Settings
296---------------
297
298Engine behavior can be controlled by several settings specified in the
299settings structure:
300
301.. type:: struct lsquic_engine_settings
302
303    .. member:: unsigned        es_versions
304
305        This is a bit mask wherein each bit corresponds to a value in
306        :type:`lsquic_version`.  Client starts negotiating with the highest
307        version and goes down.  Server supports either of the versions
308        specified here.  This setting applies to both Google and IETF QUIC.
309
310        The default value is :macro:`LSQUIC_DF_VERSIONS`.
311
312    .. member:: unsigned        es_cfcw
313
314       Initial default connection flow control window.
315
316       In server mode, per-connection values may be set lower than
317       this if resources are scarce.
318
319       Do not set es_cfcw and es_sfcw lower than :macro:`LSQUIC_MIN_FCW`.
320
321    .. member:: unsigned        es_sfcw
322
323       Initial default stream flow control window.
324
325       In server mode, per-connection values may be set lower than
326       this if resources are scarce.
327
328       Do not set es_cfcw and es_sfcw lower than :macro:`LSQUIC_MIN_FCW`.
329
330    .. member:: unsigned        es_max_cfcw
331
332       This value is used to specify maximum allowed value CFCW is allowed
333       to reach due to window auto-tuning.  By default, this value is zero,
334       which means that CFCW is not allowed to increase from its initial
335       value.
336
337       This setting is applicable to both gQUIC and IETF QUIC.
338
339       See :member:`lsquic_engine_settings.es_cfcw`,
340       :member:`lsquic_engine_settings.es_init_max_data`.
341
342    .. member:: unsigned        es_max_sfcw
343
344       This value is used to specify the maximum value stream flow control
345       window is allowed to reach due to auto-tuning.  By default, this
346       value is zero, meaning that auto-tuning is turned off.
347
348       This setting is applicable to both gQUIC and IETF QUIC.
349
350       See :member:`lsquic_engine_settings.es_sfcw`,
351       :member:`lsquic_engine_settings.es_init_max_stream_data_bidi_local`,
352       :member:`lsquic_engine_settings.es_init_max_stream_data_bidi_remote`.
353
354    .. member:: unsigned        es_max_streams_in
355
356        Maximum incoming streams, a.k.a. MIDS.
357
358        Google QUIC only.
359
360    .. member:: unsigned long   es_handshake_to
361
362       Handshake timeout in microseconds.
363
364       For client, this can be set to an arbitrary value (zero turns the
365       timeout off).
366
367       For server, this value is limited to about 16 seconds.  Do not set
368       it to zero.
369
370       Defaults to :macro:`LSQUIC_DF_HANDSHAKE_TO`.
371
372    .. member:: unsigned long   es_idle_conn_to
373
374        Idle connection timeout, a.k.a ICSL, in microseconds; GQUIC only.
375
376        Defaults to :macro:`LSQUIC_DF_IDLE_CONN_TO`
377
378    .. member:: int             es_silent_close
379
380        SCLS (silent close)
381
382    .. member:: unsigned        es_max_header_list_size
383
384       This corresponds to SETTINGS_MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE
385       (:rfc:`7540#section-6.5.2`).  0 means no limit.  Defaults
386       to :func:`LSQUIC_DF_MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE`.
387
388    .. member:: const char     *es_ua
389
390        UAID -- User-Agent ID.  Defaults to :macro:`LSQUIC_DF_UA`.
391
392        Google QUIC only.
393
394
395       More parameters for server
396
397    .. member:: unsigned        es_max_inchoate
398
399        Maximum number of incoming connections in inchoate state.  (In
400        other words, maximum number of mini connections.)
401
402        This is only applicable in server mode.
403
404        Defaults to :macro:`LSQUIC_DF_MAX_INCHOATE`.
405
406    .. member:: int             es_support_push
407
408       Setting this value to 0 means that
409
410       For client:
411
412       1. we send a SETTINGS frame to indicate that we do not support server
413          push; and
414       2. all incoming pushed streams get reset immediately.
415
416       (For maximum effect, set es_max_streams_in to 0.)
417
418       For server:
419
420       1. :func:`lsquic_conn_push_stream()` will return -1.
421
422    .. member:: int             es_support_tcid0
423
424       If set to true value, the server will not include connection ID in
425       outgoing packets if client's CHLO specifies TCID=0.
426
427       For client, this means including TCID=0 into CHLO message.  Note that
428       in this case, the engine tracks connections by the
429       (source-addr, dest-addr) tuple, thereby making it necessary to create
430       a socket for each connection.
431
432       This option has no effect in Q046 and Q050, as the server never includes
433       CIDs in the short packets.
434
435       This setting is applicable to gQUIC only.
436
437       The default is :func:`LSQUIC_DF_SUPPORT_TCID0`.
438
439    .. member:: int             es_support_nstp
440
441       Q037 and higher support "No STOP_WAITING frame" mode.  When set, the
442       client will send NSTP option in its Client Hello message and will not
443       sent STOP_WAITING frames, while ignoring incoming STOP_WAITING frames,
444       if any.  Note that if the version negotiation happens to downgrade the
445       client below Q037, this mode will *not* be used.
446
447       This option does not affect the server, as it must support NSTP mode
448       if it was specified by the client.
449
450        Defaults to :macro:`LSQUIC_DF_SUPPORT_NSTP`.
451
452    .. member:: int             es_honor_prst
453
454       If set to true value, the library will drop connections when it
455       receives corresponding Public Reset packet.  The default is to
456       ignore these packets.
457
458       The default is :macro:`LSQUIC_DF_HONOR_PRST`.
459
460    .. member:: int             es_send_prst
461
462       If set to true value, the library will send Public Reset packets
463       in response to incoming packets with unknown Connection IDs.
464
465       The default is :macro:`LSQUIC_DF_SEND_PRST`.
466
467    .. member:: unsigned        es_progress_check
468
469       A non-zero value enables internal checks that identify suspected
470       infinite loops in user `on_read` and `on_write` callbacks
471       and break them.  An infinite loop may occur if user code keeps
472       on performing the same operation without checking status, e.g.
473       reading from a closed stream etc.
474
475       The value of this parameter is as follows: should a callback return
476       this number of times in a row without making progress (that is,
477       reading, writing, or changing stream state), loop break will occur.
478
479       The defaut value is :macro:`LSQUIC_DF_PROGRESS_CHECK`.
480
481    .. member:: int             es_rw_once
482
483       A non-zero value make stream dispatch its read-write events once
484       per call.
485
486       When zero, read and write events are dispatched until the stream
487       is no longer readable or writeable, respectively, or until the
488       user signals unwillingness to read or write using
489       :func:`lsquic_stream_wantread()` or :func:`lsquic_stream_wantwrite()`
490       or shuts down the stream.
491
492       The default value is :macro:`LSQUIC_DF_RW_ONCE`.
493
494    .. member:: unsigned        es_proc_time_thresh
495
496       If set, this value specifies the number of microseconds that
497       :func:`lsquic_engine_process_conns()` and
498       :func:`lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets()` are allowed to spend
499       before returning.
500
501       This is not an exact science and the connections must make

755To initialize the settings structure to library defaults, use the following
756convenience function:
757
758.. function:: lsquic_engine_init_settings (struct lsquic_engine_settings *, unsigned flags)
759
760    ``flags`` is a bitmask of ``LSENG_SERVER`` and ``LSENG_HTTP``
761
762After doing this, change just the settings you'd like.  To check whether
763the values are correct, another convenience function is provided:
764
765.. function:: lsquic_engine_check_settings (const struct lsquic_engine_settings *, unsigned flags, char *err_buf, size_t err_buf_sz)
766
767    Check settings for errors.  Return 0 if settings are OK, -1 otherwise.
768
769    If `err_buf` and `err_buf_sz` are set, an error string is written to the
770    buffers.
771
772The following macros in :file:`lsquic.h` specify default values:

941Receiving Packets
942-----------------
943
944Incoming packets are supplied to the engine using :func:`lsquic_engine_packet_in()`.
945It is up to the engine to decide what do to with the packet.  It can find an existing
946connection and dispatch the packet there, create a new connection (in server mode), or
947schedule a version negotiation or stateless reset packet.
948
949.. function:: int lsquic_engine_packet_in (lsquic_engine_t *engine, const unsigned char *data, size_t size, const struct sockaddr *local, const struct sockaddr *peer, void *peer_ctx, int ecn)
950
951    Pass incoming packet to the QUIC engine.  This function can be called
952    more than once in a row.  After you add one or more packets, call
953    :func:`lsquic_engine_process_conns()` to schedule outgoing packets, if any.
954
955    :param engine: Engine instance.
956    :param data: Pointer to UDP datagram payload.
957    :param size: Size of UDP datagram.
958    :param local: Local address.
959    :param peer: Peer address.
960    :param peer_ctx: Peer context.
961    :param ecn: ECN marking associated with this UDP datagram.
962
963    :return:
964
965        - ``0``: Packet was processed by a real connection.
966        - ``1``: Packet was handled successfully, but not by a connection.
967          This may happen with version negotiation and public reset
968          packets as well as some packets that may be ignored.
969        - ``-1``: Some error occurred.  Possible reasons are invalid packet
970          size or failure to allocate memory.
971
972.. function:: int lsquic_engine_earliest_adv_tick (lsquic_engine_t *engine, int *diff)
973
974    Returns true if there are connections to be processed, false otherwise.
975
976    :param engine:
977
978        Engine instance.
979
980    :param diff:
981
982        If the function returns a true value, the pointed to integer is set to the
983        difference between the earliest advisory tick time and now.
984        If the former is in the past, this difference is negative.

1016    .. member:: void                  *peer_ctx
1017
1018        Peer context associated with the local address.
1019
1020    .. member:: int                    ecn
1021
1022        ECN: Valid values are 0 - 3. See :rfc:`3168`.
1023
1024        ECN may be set by IETF QUIC connections if ``es_ecn`` is set.
1025
1026.. type:: typedef int (*lsquic_packets_out_f)(void *packets_out_ctx, const struct lsquic_out_spec  *out_spec, unsigned n_packets_out)
1027
1028    Returns number of packets successfully sent out or -1 on error.  -1 should
1029    only be returned if no packets were sent out.  If -1 is returned or if the
1030    return value is smaller than ``n_packets_out``, this indicates that sending
1031    of packets is not possible.
1032
1033    If not all packets could be sent out, then:
1034
1035        - errno is examined.  If it is not EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK, the connection
1036          whose packet caused the error is closed forthwith.
1037        - No packets are attempted to be sent out until :func:`lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets()`
1038          is called.
1039
1040.. function:: void lsquic_engine_process_conns (lsquic_engine_t *engine)
1041
1042    Process tickable connections.  This function must be called often enough so
1043    that packets and connections do not expire.  The preferred method of doing
1044    so is by using :func:`lsquic_engine_earliest_adv_tick()`.
1045
1046.. function:: int lsquic_engine_has_unsent_packets (lsquic_engine_t *engine)
1047
1048    Returns true if engine has some unsent packets.  This happens if
1049    :member:`lsquic_engine_api.ea_packets_out` could not send everything out
1050    or if processing deadline was exceeded (see
1051    :member:`lsquic_engine_settings.es_proc_time_thresh`).
1052
1053.. function:: void lsquic_engine_send_unsent_packets (lsquic_engine_t *engine)
1054
1055    Send out as many unsent packets as possibe: until we are out of unsent
1056    packets or until ``ea_packets_out()`` fails.
1057
1058    If ``ea_packets_out()`` cannot send all packets, this function must be
1059    called to signify that sending of packets is possible again.
1060
1061Stream Callback Interface
1062-------------------------
1063
1064The stream callback interface structure lists the callbacks used by
1065the engine to communicate with the user code:
1066
1067.. type:: struct lsquic_stream_if
1068
1069    .. member:: lsquic_conn_ctx_t *(*on_new_conn)(void *stream_if_ctx, lsquic_conn_t *)
1070
1071        Called when a new connection has been created.  In server mode,
1072        this means that the handshake has been successful.  In client mode,
1073        on the other hand, this callback is called as soon as connection
1074        object is created inside the engine, but before the handshake is
1075        done.
1076
1077        The return value is the connection context associated with this
1078        connection.  Use :func:`lsquic_conn_get_ctx()` to get back this
1079        context.  It is OK for this function to return NULL.
1080
1081        This callback is mandatory.
1082
1083    .. member:: void (*on_conn_closed)(lsquic_conn_t *)
1084
1085        Connection is closed.
1086
1087        This callback is mandatory.
1088
1089    .. member:: lsquic_stream_ctx_t * (*on_new_stream)(void *stream_if_ctx, lsquic_stream_t *)
1090
1091        If you need to initiate a connection, call lsquic_conn_make_stream().
1092        This will cause `on_new_stream` callback to be called when appropriate
1093        (this operation is delayed when maximum number of outgoing streams is
1094        reached).
1095
1096        If connection is going away, this callback may be called with the
1097        second parameter set to NULL.
1098
1099        The return value is the stream context associated with the stream.
1100        A pointer to it is passed to `on_read()`, `on_write()`, and `on_close()`
1101        callbacks.  It is OK for this function to return NULL.
1102
1103        This callback is mandatory.
1104
1105    .. member:: void (*on_read)     (lsquic_stream_t *s, lsquic_stream_ctx_t *h)
1106
1107        Stream is readable: either there are bytes to be read or an error
1108        is ready to be collected.
1109
1110        This callback is mandatory.
1111
1112    .. member:: void (*on_write)    (lsquic_stream_t *s, lsquic_stream_ctx_t *h)
1113
1114        Stream is writeable.
1115
1116        This callback is mandatory.
1117
1118    .. member:: void (*on_close)    (lsquic_stream_t *s, lsquic_stream_ctx_t *h)
1119
1120        After this callback returns, the stream is no longer accessible.  This is
1121        a good time to clean up the stream context.
1122
1123        This callback is mandatory.
1124
1125    .. member:: void (*on_hsk_done)(lsquic_conn_t *c, enum lsquic_hsk_status s)
1126
1127        When handshake is completed, this callback is called.
1128
1129        This callback is optional.
1130
1131    .. member:: void (*on_goaway_received)(lsquic_conn_t *)
1132
1133        This is called when our side received GOAWAY frame.  After this,
1134        new streams should not be created.
1135
1136        This callback is optional.
1137
1138    .. member:: void (*on_new_token)(lsquic_conn_t *c, const unsigned char *token, size_t token_size)
1139
1140        When client receives a token in NEW_TOKEN frame, this callback is called.
1141
1142        This callback is optional.
1143
1144    .. member:: void (*on_sess_resume_info)(lsquic_conn_t *c, const unsigned char *, size_t)
1145
1146        This callback lets client record information needed to
1147        perform session resumption next time around.
1148
1149        This callback is optional.
1150
1151Creating Connections
1152--------------------
1153
1154In server mode, the connections are created by the library based on incoming
1155packets.  After handshake is completed, the library calls :member:`lsquic_stream_if.on_new_conn`
1156callback.
1157
1158In client mode, a new connection is created by
1159
1160.. function:: lsquic_conn_t * lsquic_engine_connect (lsquic_engine_t *engine, enum lsquic_version version, const struct sockaddr *local_sa, const struct sockaddr *peer_sa, void *peer_ctx, lsquic_conn_ctx_t *conn_ctx, const char *sni, unsigned short max_udp_payload_size, const unsigned char *sess_resume, size_t sess_resume_len, const unsigned char *token, size_t token_sz)
1161
1162    :param engine: Engine to use.
1163
1164    :param version:
1165
1166        To let the engine specify QUIC version, use N_LSQVER.  If session resumption
1167        information is supplied, version is picked from there instead.
1168
1169    :param local_sa:
1170
1171        Local address.
1172
1173    :param peer_sa:
1174
1175        Address of the server.
1176
1177    :param peer_ctx:
1178
1179        Context associated with the peer.  This is what gets passed to TODO.
1180
1181    :param conn_ctx:
1182
1183        Connection context can be set early using this parameter.  Useful if
1184        you need the connection context to be available in `on_conn_new()`.
1185        Note that that callback's return value replaces the connection
1186        context set here.
1187
1188    :param sni:
1189
1190        The SNI is required for Google QUIC connections; it is optional for
1191        IETF QUIC and may be set to NULL.
1192
1193    :param max_udp_payload_size:
1194
1195        Maximum packet size.  If set to zero, it is inferred based on `peer_sa`
1196        and `version`.
1197
1198    :param sess_resume:
1199
1200        Pointer to previously saved session resumption data needed for
1201        TLS resumption.  May be NULL.
1202
1203    :param sess_resume_len:
1204
1205        Size of session resumption data.
1206
1207    :param token:
1208
1209        Pointer to previously received token to include in the Initial
1210        packet.  Tokens are used by IETF QUIC to pre-validate client
1211        connections, potentially avoiding a retry.
1212
1213        See :member:`lsquic_stream_if.on_new_token` callback.
1214
1215        May be NULL.
1216
1217    :param token_sz:
1218
1219        Size of data pointed to by ``token``.
1220
1221Closing Connections
1222-------------------
1223
1224.. function:: void lsquic_conn_going_away (lsquic_conn_t *conn)
1225
1226    Mark connection as going away: send GOAWAY frame and do not accept
1227    any more incoming streams, nor generate streams of our own.
1228
1229    Only applicable to HTTP/3 and GQUIC connections.  Otherwise a no-op.
1230
1231.. function:: void lsquic_conn_close (lsquic_conn_t *conn)
1232
1233    This closes the connection.  :member:`lsquic_stream_if.on_conn_closed`
1234    and :member:`lsquic_stream_if.on_close` callbacks will be called.
1235
1236Creating Streams
1237----------------
1238
1239Similar to connections, streams are created by the library in server mode; they
1240correspond to requests.  In client mode, a new stream is created by
1241
1242.. function:: void lsquic_conn_make_stream (lsquic_conn_t *)
1243
1244    Create a new request stream.  This causes :member:`on_new_stream()` callback
1245    to be called.  If creating more requests is not permitted at the moment
1246    (due to number of concurrent streams limit), stream creation is registered
1247    as "pending" and the stream is created later when number of streams dips
1248    under the limit again.  Any number of pending streams can be created.
1249    Use :func:`lsquic_conn_n_pending_streams()` and
1250    :func:`lsquic_conn_cancel_pending_streams()` to manage pending streams.
1251
1252    If connection is going away, :func:`on_new_stream()` is called with the
1253    stream parameter set to NULL.
1254
1255Stream Events
1256-------------
1257
1258To register or unregister an interest in a read or write event, use the
1259following functions:
1260
1261.. function:: int lsquic_stream_wantread (lsquic_stream_t *stream, int want)
1262
1263    :param stream: Stream to read from.
1264    :param want: Boolean value indicating whether the caller wants to read
1265                 from stream.
1266    :return: Previous value of ``want`` or ``-1`` if the stream has already
1267             been closed for reading.
1268
1269    A stream becomes readable if there is was an error: for example, the
1270    peer may have reset the stream.  In this case, reading from the stream
1271    will return an error.
1272
1273.. function:: int lsquic_stream_wantwrite (lsquic_stream_t *stream, int want)
1274
1275    :param stream: Stream to write to.
1276    :param want: Boolean value indicating whether the caller wants to write
1277                 to stream.
1278    :return: Previous value of ``want`` or ``-1`` if the stream has already
1279             been closed for writing.
1280
1281Reading From Streams
1282--------------------
1283
1284.. function:: ssize_t lsquic_stream_read (lsquic_stream_t *stream, unsigned char *buf, size_t sz)
1285
1286    :param stream: Stream to read from.
1287    :param buf: Buffer to copy data to.
1288    :param sz: Size of the buffer.
1289    :return: Number of bytes read, zero if EOS has been reached, or -1 on error.
1290
1291    Read up to ``sz`` bytes from ``stream`` into buffer ``buf``.
1292
1293    ``-1`` is returned on error, in which case ``errno`` is set:
1294
1295    - ``EBADF``: The stream is closed.
1296    - ``ECONNRESET``: The stream has been reset.
1297    - ``EWOULDBLOCK``: There is no data to be read.
1298
1299.. function:: ssize_t lsquic_stream_readv (lsquic_stream_t *stream, const struct iovec *vec, int iovcnt)
1300
1301    :param stream: Stream to read from.
1302    :param vec: Array of ``iovec`` structures.
1303    :param iovcnt: Number of elements in ``vec``.
1304    :return: Number of bytes read, zero if EOS has been reached, or -1 on error.
1305
1306    Similar to :func:`lsquic_stream_read()`, but reads data into a vector.
1307
1308.. function:: ssize_t lsquic_stream_readf (lsquic_stream_t *stream, size_t (*readf)(void *ctx, const unsigned char *buf, size_t len, int fin), void *ctx)
1309
1310    :param stream: Stream to read from.
1311
1312    :param readf:
1313
1314        The callback takes four parameters:
1315
1316        - Pointer to user-supplied context;
1317        - Pointer to the data;
1318        - Data size (can be zero); and
1319        - Indicator whether the FIN follows the data.
1320
1321        The callback returns number of bytes processed.  If this number is zero
1322        or is smaller than ``len``, reading from stream stops.
1323
1324    :param ctx: Context pointer passed to ``readf``.
1325
1326    This function allows user-supplied callback to read the stream contents.
1327    It is meant to be used for zero-copy stream processing.
1328
1329    Return value and errors are same as in :func:`lsquic_stream_read()`.
1330
1331Writing To Streams
1332------------------
1333
1334.. function:: ssize_t lsquic_stream_write (lsquic_stream_t *stream, const void *buf, size_t len)
1335
1336    :param stream: Stream to write to.
1337    :param buf: Buffer to copy data from.
1338    :param len: Number of bytes to copy.
1339    :return: Number of bytes written -- which may be smaller than ``len`` -- or a negative
1340             value when an error occurs.
1341
1342    Write ``len`` bytes to the stream.  Returns number of bytes written, which
1343    may be smaller that ``len``.
1344
1345    A negative return value indicates a serious error (the library is likely
1346    to have aborted the connection because of it).
1347
1348.. function:: ssize_t lsquic_stream_writev (lsquic_stream_t *s, const struct iovec *vec, int count)
1349
1350    Like :func:`lsquic_stream_write()`, but read data from a vector.
1351
1352.. type:: struct lsquic_reader
1353
1354    Used as argument to :func:`lsquic_stream_writef()`.
1355
1356    .. member:: size_t (*lsqr_read) (void *lsqr_ctx, void *buf, size_t count)
1357
1358        :param lsqr_ctx: Pointer to user-specified context.
1359        :param buf: Memory location to write to.
1360        :param count: Size of available memory pointed to by ``buf``.
1361        :return:
1362
1363            Number of bytes written.  This is not a ``ssize_t`` because
1364            the read function is not supposed to return an error.  If an error
1365            occurs in the read function (for example, when reading from a file
1366            fails), it is supposed to deal with the error itself.
1367
1368    .. member:: size_t (*lsqr_size) (void *lsqr_ctx)
1369
1370        Return number of bytes remaining in the reader.
1371
1372    .. member:: void    *lsqr_ctx
1373
1374        Context pointer passed both to ``lsqr_read()`` and to ``lsqr_size()``.
1375
1376.. function:: ssize_t lsquic_stream_writef (lsquic_stream_t *stream, struct lsquic_reader *reader)
1377
1378    :param stream: Stream to write to.
1379    :param reader: Reader to read from.
1380    :return: Number of bytes written or -1 on error.
1381
1382    Write to stream using :type:`lsquic_reader`.  This is the most generic of
1383    the write functions -- :func:`lsquic_stream_write()` and
1384    :func:`lsquic_stream_writev()` utilize the same mechanism.
1385
1386.. function:: int lsquic_stream_flush (lsquic_stream_t *stream)
1387
1388    :param stream: Stream to flush.
1389    :return: 0 on success and -1 on failure.
1390
1391    Flush any buffered data.  This triggers packetizing even a single byte
1392    into a separate frame.  Flushing a closed stream is an error.
1393
1394Closing Streams
1395---------------
1396
1397Streams can be closed for reading, writing, or both.
1398``on_close()`` callback is called at some point after a stream is closed
1399for both reading and writing,
1400
1401.. function:: int lsquic_stream_shutdown (lsquic_stream_t *stream, int how)
1402
1403    :param stream: Stream to shut down.
1404    :param how:
1405
1406        This parameter specifies what do to.  Allowed values are:
1407
1408        - 0: Stop reading.
1409        - 1: Stop writing.
1410        - 2: Stop both reading and writing.
1411
1412    :return: 0 on success or -1 on failure.
1413
1414.. function:: int lsquic_stream_close (lsquic_stream_t *stream)
1415
1416    :param stream: Stream to close.
1417    :return: 0 on success or -1 on failure.
1418
1419Sending HTTP Headers
1420--------------------
1421
1422.. type:: struct lsxpack_header
1423
1424This type is defined in _lsxpack_header.h_.  See that header file for
1425more information.
1426
1427    .. member:: char             *buf

1442
1443    .. member:: lsxpack_strlen_t  name_len

1446
1447    .. member:: lsxpack_strlen_t  val_offset

1450
1451    .. member:: lsxpack_strlen_t  val_len
1452
1453        the length of value
1454
1455    .. member:: uint16_t          chain_next_idx
1456
1457        mainly for cookie value chain
1458
1459    .. member:: uint8_t           hpack_index
1460
1461        HPACK static table index
1462
1463    .. member:: uint8_t           qpack_index
1464

1490
1491        Pointer to an array of HTTP headers.

1510    :return:
1511
1512        0 on success or -1 on error.
1513
1514Receiving HTTP Headers
1515----------------------
1516
1517If ``ea_hsi_if`` is not set in :type:`lsquic_engine_api`, the library will translate
1518HPACK- and QPACK-encoded headers into HTTP/1.x-like headers and prepend them to the
1519stream.  To the stream-reading function, it will look as if a standard HTTP/1.x
1520message.
1521
1522Alternatively, you can specify header-processing set of functions and manage header
1523fields yourself.  In that case, the header set must be "read" from the stream via
1524:func:`lsquic_stream_get_hset()`.
1525
1526.. type:: struct lsquic_hset_if
1527
1528    .. member::  void * (*hsi_create_header_set)(void *hsi_ctx, lsquic_stream_t *stream, int is_push_promise)
1529
1530        :param hsi_ctx: User context.  This is the pointer specifed in ``ea_hsi_ctx``.
1531        :param stream: Stream with which the header set is associated.  May be set
1532                       to NULL in server mode.
1533        :param is_push_promise: Boolean value indicating whether this header set is
1534                                for a push promise.
1535        :return: Pointer to user-defined header set object.
1536
1537        Create a new header set.  This object is (and must be) fetched from a
1538        stream by calling :func:`lsquic_stream_get_hset()` before the stream can
1539        be read.
1540
1541    .. member:: struct lsxpack_header * (*hsi_prepare_decode)(void *hdr_set, struct lsxpack_header *hdr, size_t space)
1542
1543        Return a header set prepared for decoding.  If ``hdr`` is NULL, this
1544        means return a new structure with at least ``space`` bytes available
1545        in the decoder buffer.  On success, a newly prepared header is
1546        returned.
1547
1548        If ``hdr`` is not NULL, it means there was not enough decoder buffer
1549        and it must be increased to at least ``space`` bytes.  ``buf``, ``val_len``,
1550        and ``name_offset`` member of the ``hdr`` structure may change.  On
1551        success, the return value is the same as ``hdr``.
1552
1553        If NULL is returned, the space cannot be allocated.
1554
1555    .. member:: int (*hsi_process_header)(void *hdr_set, struct lsxpack_header *hdr)
1556
1557        Process new header.
1558
1559        :param hdr_set:
1560
1561            Header set to add the new header field to.  This is the object
1562            returned by ``hsi_create_header_set()``.
1563
1564        :param hdr:
1565
1566            The header returned by @ref ``hsi_prepare_decode()``.
1567
1568        :return:
1569
1570            Return 0 on success, a positive value if a header error occured,
1571            or a negative value on any other error.  A positive return value
1572            will result in cancellation of associated stream. A negative return
1573            value will result in connection being aborted.
1574
1575    .. member:: void                (*hsi_discard_header_set)(void *hdr_set)
1576
1577        :param hdr_set: Header set to discard.
1578
1579        Discard header set.  This is called for unclaimed header sets and
1580        header sets that had an error.
1581
1582    .. member:: enum lsquic_hsi_flag hsi_flags
1583
1584        These flags specify properties of decoded headers passed to
1585        ``hsi_process_header()``.  This is only applicable to QPACK headers;
1586        HPACK library header properties are based on compilation, not
1587        run-time, options.
1588
1589.. function:: void * lsquic_stream_get_hset (lsquic_stream_t *stream)
1590
1591    :param stream: Stream to fetch header set from.
1592
1593    :return: Header set associated with the stream.
1594
1595    Get header set associated with the stream.  The header set is created by
1596    ``hsi_create_header_set()`` callback.  After this call, the ownership of
1597    the header set is transferred to the caller.
1598
1599    This call must precede calls to :func:`lsquic_stream_read()`,
1600    :func:`lsquic_stream_readv()`, and :func:`lsquic_stream_readf()`.
1601
1602    If the optional header set interface is not specified,
1603    this function returns NULL.
1604
1605Push Promises
1606-------------
1607
1608.. function:: int lsquic_conn_push_stream (lsquic_conn_t *conn, void *hdr_set, lsquic_stream_t *stream, const lsquic_http_headers_t *headers)
1609
1610    :return:
1611
1612        - 0: Stream pushed successfully.
1613        - 1: Stream push failed because it is disabled or because we hit
1614             stream limit or connection is going away.
1615        - -1: Stream push failed because of an internal error.
1616
1617    A server may push a stream.  This call creates a new stream in reference
1618    to stream ``stream``.  It will behave as if the client made a request: it will
1619    trigger ``on_new_stream()`` event and it can be used as a regular client-initiated stream.
1620
1621    ``hdr_set`` must be set.  It is passed as-is to :func:`lsquic_stream_get_hset()`.
1622
1623.. function:: int lsquic_conn_is_push_enabled (lsquic_conn_t *conn)
1624
1625    :return: Boolean value indicating whether push promises are enabled.
1626
1627    Only makes sense in server mode: the client cannot push a stream and this
1628    function always returns false in client mode.
1629
1630.. function:: int lsquic_stream_is_pushed (const lsquic_stream_t *stream)
1631
1632    :return: Boolean value indicating whether this is a pushed stream.
1633
1634.. function:: int lsquic_stream_refuse_push (lsquic_stream_t *stream)
1635
1636    Refuse pushed stream.  Call it from ``on_new_stream()``.  No need to
1637    call :func:`lsquic_stream_close()` after this.  ``on_close()`` will be called.
1638
1639.. function:: int lsquic_stream_push_info (const lsquic_stream_t *stream, lsquic_stream_id_t *ref_stream_id, void **hdr_set)
1640
1641    Get information associated with pushed stream
1642
1643    :param ref_stream_id: Stream ID in response to which push promise was sent.
1644    :param hdr_set: Header set. This object was passed to or generated by :func:`lsquic_conn_push_stream()`.
1645
1646    :return: 0 on success and -1 if this is not a pushed stream.
1647
1648Stream Priorities
1649-----------------
1650
1651.. function:: unsigned lsquic_stream_priority (const lsquic_stream_t *stream)
1652
1653    Return current priority of the stream.
1654
1655.. function:: int lsquic_stream_set_priority (lsquic_stream_t *stream, unsigned priority)
1656
1657    Set stream priority.  Valid priority values are 1 through 256, inclusive.
1658    Lower value means higher priority.
1659
1660    :return: 0 on success of -1 on failure (this happens if priority value is invalid).
1661

1664
1665.. function:: unsigned lsquic_engine_quic_versions (const lsquic_engine_t *engine)

1785
1786        :return: 0 on success, -1 on failure.
1787
1788        If inserted successfully, ``free()`` will be called on ``data`` and ``key``
1789        pointer when the element is deleted, whether due to expiration
1790        or explicit deletion.

1825
1826         The implementation may choose to copy the object into buffer pointed
