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.
This works for both client and server side (in the case of the server,
either for daemon or non-daemon mode).
Consistifies a few places that were using printf instead of iprintf.
Fixes Issue 119.
Mostly this change consists of adding FreeBSD-specific code to handle
this feature. The concepts and system calls are very similar to what's
already done for Linux. One difference is that on FreeBSD, the CPU
affinity mask is saved before -A processing and restored afterwards.
This causes a slight change to the function signatures for
iperf_setaffinity() and iperf_clearaffinity() (these functions
however are not documented as a part of the libiperf3 API).
Slightly improve some of the documentation for the -A command line
option, to hopefully stave off some of the questions about this
feature.
Mostly based on a submitted patch.
Issue: 128 (better error message for CPU affinity failure)

When the client process gets interrupted, both the client and server
dump out accumulated interval statistics, as well as a partial set of
summary statistics (basically each side dumps what it has, but without
the exchange of information that usually happens at the end of a
normal run).
If the server process gets interrupted, the server dumps out its
accumulated interval and summary statistics as above. The client does
this as well in the -R case, but exits with a "Broken pipe" in the non
-R case (this behavior was present all along; it was not introduced in
this change). More investigation will be needed to understand the
client behavior.
Bump copyright dates in a few places.
Issue: 132 (signal handler for API calls)
Discussed with: aaron@internet2.edu
having it there may cause the select to return immediately every
time. Which is bad, m'kay?
Also, changed the coding idiom used to keep track of the maximum fd
in the fd sets, to be clearer.
A couple more sizeof issues found and fixed. One of them is
actually another protocol change, but due to a fortuitous accident
it should remain compatible with older versions.
Detailed explanation: When a client attempts to connect to a server that
is already busy, the server is supposed to return ACCESS_DENIED as a
state value. It was doing so, but was writing it as an int, even though
state values are supposed to be signed chars. The client read the value
correctly as a signed char, getting one byte and throwing away the rest.
So why did this ever work? Because ACCESS_DENIED is the value -1, and
any byte of an int -1 equals a signed char -1. If ACCESS_DENIED had been
any other value, this would have been an opvious bug and would have long
since been fixed. As is, it stuck around working by accident until now.
and iperf_run_server, so that API users get it too. Also, call
iperf_errexit with an appropriate message, which in -J mode dumps
out any accumulated JSON data.
one is the new -Z flag.
- Fixed potential bug in net.c's Nread and Nwrite routines. If they
had ever needed to loop they would have read/written the wrong address,
due to incorrect pointer arithmetic - sizeof(void) is not 1. Fix
was to change the type of the buffer pointer to char*, which also
meant adding casts to some callers.
- Better checking for conflicts between command-line flags - now they
should no longer be order-dependent.
- Added a new -Z / --zerocopy flag, to use a "zero copy" method of
sending data, such as sendfile(2) instead of the usual write(2).
- Renumbered error enum to make inserting new ones easier.
