[udp_send] Refuse to stream files with invalid chunk tables.

If an audio file contains a chunk so large that even the maximal
possible number of slices is not sufficient to put this chunk into
a single FEC group, we must refuse to send this file. It's likely a
corrupt file anyway.

The old code in num_slices() was buggy as it returned the number of
slices needed to send the file as an uint8_t, so the return value
was actually the number of needed slices mod 256. This could trigger
the assert() in setup_next_fec_group() which checks that the group
contains at least one chunk.

This patch changes num_slices() to detect this situation more
reliably. As it is likely caused by a bad audio file rather than by a
networking problem, we do _not_ kick the fec client, but deactivate
it for the current file only. This requires the new "error" member
of struct fec_client which indicates a temporarily disabled fec client.

Andre Noll [Sat, 28 Feb 2009 13:55:46 +0000 (14:55 +0100)]
Add forward error correction code to the udp sender/receiver.

This patch adds the first draft of a FEC implementation based
on code by Luigi Rizzo.

On the server side, the FEC encoding is done within the virtual
streaming system which also contains the timing routines for sending
a FEC-encoded audio stream. Senders my request such an encoded stream
by calling vss_add_fec_client() with a fec_client_parms structure
that contains the FEC parameters and a callback function which is used
to actually send the data.

On the receiver side, the new fecdec filter is introduced which must
be used to decode a FEC-encoded stream. As the fec parameters are
contained in the header of each data slice of the encoded stream, no
options to this filter are necessary.

ATM, FEC is only used by the udp sender/receiver, but other protocols
can be easily changed to use FEC as well.

This new code is still experimental, lacks documentation and the fec
parameters can currently only be changed by editing the source code.

URL/UDPv6 support for the UDP sender.

This adds support for URL strings to support IPv4/IPv6 addresses, hostnames,
and optional port numbers to the UDP sender. The syntax is based on RFC 3986,
example URL strings to be used with the 'add'/'delete' commands are:

     10.10.1.2:8000 # host:port
     10.10.1.2 # host with default port 8000
     localhost # hostname (for IPv4 or IPv6 host)
     localhost:8001 # hostname with port
     [::1]:8000  # same, but different syntax
     [badc0de::1] # IPv6 host with default port 8000

The 'delete' command now also supports port-wildcarding, i.e. not specifying
the port in the 'delete' command removes all targets whose host names match.

The UDP sender has been tested to function with IPv6, including multicasting:
 * server: para_server --udp_target=[ff05::beef]:8000 --udp_mcast_iface=eth1

Auxiliary functions to parse and validate parts of URIs.

To support URI syntax in the manner of RFC 3986, this adds a self-contained set
of functions to parse (parts of) URIs and to validate such parts using basic
syntax checks.

To avoid blocking while resolving DNS strings, strings that do not have the
characteristics of native IPv4/v6 address strings always pass; a wrong hostname
will then be detected later when connecting.

Note: strictly speaking, this does not deal with URIs, since the 'scheme' part
      is missing and only the "locator" part is parsed. It is possible to extend
      this later, using something like dccp://host[:port], http://host[:port],
      or udp://host[:port] to specify the transport protocols of paraslash.

Put IPv4-specific parts inside the ACL subsystem

The ACL subsystem performs access validation based on IPv4 address /
netmask pairs. Since the internals of this system are exposed via
struct sender_command_data, other subsystems can only use IPv4.

This patch migrates the IPv4-specific parts of the ACL subsystem inside
that system and replaces the 'struct in_addr' address with a host
string. A subsequent patch converts the remaining subsystems to also
use strings instead of AF-dependent addresses.

For the present purpose the string size (fixed) is over-dimensioned,
since a valid IPv4 address contains at most 15 = 4*3 + 3 + 1 bytes
(including the 3 dots and the '\0'). The size should also be sufficient
for hostnames, since RFC 1123, 2.1 suggests a maximum length of 255.

Since the conversion string -> struct in_addr now happens later,
syntax checks have been added for argument strings.
