The new module is a merge of the Cowboy and Gun HTTP/2
state machines. Using a common code will help future
developments rather than duplicating the work.
A notable change is in how streams are terminated
when the handler stops before the body is sent. The
cowboy_stream:terminate function is now called only
after the body has been sent fully (or the stream
is reset in-between), not when the stop command is
returned. This will most likely have an impact on
metrics but will be closer to reality.
I had to comment a broken test in rfc7231_SUITE that
was cheating, cheating is no longer possible.
This depends on Cowlib master for the time being. A
new Cowlib version will be released once both Cowboy
and Gun are ported to use cow_http2_machine and I'm
satisfied with it.
The miscount occurred because of a faulty iolist split function.
The bug should now be corrected, a PropEr test has been added
and a regression test has also been added.
Instead of tracking Erlang/OTP versions manually in each project,
I can just say OTP-19+ and let the plugin fill in the most recent
patch releases for each version. In addition I will configure the
CI commands to cleanup unneeded versions automatically.
Unfortunately compression will be disabled for 20.1, 20.1.1
and 20.1.2. In additiona I do not recommend 20.1.3 due to
issues inflating some specific sizes.
They are now cowboy:start_clear/3 and cowboy:start_tls/3.
The NumAcceptors argument can be specified via the
num_acceptor transport option. Ranch has been updated
to 1.4.0 to that effect.
