I had a look at the API, and while the layer separation sounds good, I have some questions / concerns of different nature. Here is a brain-dump, in no particular order: - If TLS is taken out of the core it would be best to rewrite it without looking at the current code. If we want to get OpenSIPS as an official Debian package, the TLS code needs to be a separate module, with a different license (GPL with the OpenSSL exception thing), but in order to relicense it all developers have to agree, doing it from scratch would avoid this. - If TLS is a module now, has there been any thought on supporting implementations other than OpenSSL? gnuTLS and libreSSL come to mind. - I see that the send / receive API is not designed with scatter / gather I/O in mind. It might be beneficial in the long run to support sending or receiving an array of buffers, and use readv / writev underneath. - sockaddr_union is defined by OpenSIPS with no real purpose these days, since we can use sockaddr_storage for allocating space and sockaddr for passing around pointers. - At what level are the TLS settings considered? Network or transport? Either way, all init functions get void, but where will the config be taken from, if it’s different per domain? - The transport API has some inconsistencies in what parameters it takes: connect gets a sockaddr, but bind gets host and port. - Where do DNS lookups happen? If the transport API only knows about IPs and ports then all functions should take sockaddr structures and the app would do the lookup. - Any thoughts on using “connected” UDP sockets, so the kernel does the filtering for incoming traffic? I hope this helps. Cheers, -- Saúl Ibarra Corretgé AG Projects
