This definitely affected FreeBSD, which breaks POSIX.1 by not
setting CLOCKS_PER_SEC to 1000000 (see clock(3)). At this point
I can't tell if any other platforms were affected by this.
transfer.
Note that the sender can either be the client or the server depending
on whether --reverse is used.
This fixes some problems with UDP transfers getting severely confused
and (wrongly) complaining about packets arriving out of order.
Related to issue #125.
algorithm selection) option to work on FreeBSD for free, starting with
FreeBSD 9. Update various documentation places to note this. One
specifies the congestion algorithm in the same was on Linux, although
the names of the algorithms are (at least in the general case) different.
"sysctl net.inet.tcp.cc" on FreeBSD provides a list of available
algorithms, which are implemented as loadable kernel modules.
Rename the --linux-congestion long option to --congestion (retaining
the old option as a deprecated synonym).
not including it.
To fix this required us to change config.h to iperf_config.h (to
avoid potential filename collisions with this generic name). Then
iperf.h could include this.
Adjust the existing header file inclusions to track this, and also
canonicalize their inclusion to be at the top of *.c files.
As with several other recent commits, don't check explicitly for an
OS platform, but rather detect the various API bits that are used
to implement CPU affinity setting.
We check at configure-time to see if IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MGR is defined
in <linux/in.6>, if it is we set a HAVE_FLOWLABEL CPP symbol to
turn on conditional compilation of the support for this feature.
Rather than checking for anything Linux-specific at configure-time,
see if TCP_CONGESTION is defined in <netinet/tcp.h> and if so define
a CPP variable HAVE_TCP_CONGESTION, which we then use to enable
conditional compilation of the code for this feature.
These macros were never used anywhere in iperf3 anyways, and
conflicted with macro definitions that were in FreeBSD's system
headers.
Bump copyright date and add a comment to inclusion guard while here.
Rather than doing checks for platforms that we believe support SCTP,
instead look for an indication (notably the presence of <netinet/sctp.h>)
that it's supported. This makes the conditionals for SCTP more obvious.
In addition, it opens up the possibility that SCTP might work on some
new OS that's not FreeBSD or Linux.
This change may force some additional build-time requirements on Linux,
such as lksctp-tools-devel on CentOS / Fedora or libsctp-dev on
Ubuntu.
Committing this first cut for review and to enable testing on multiple
platforms. So far this works correctly on Linux (SCTP support) and
MacOS (no SCTP support).
