clock_gettime() is a far better clock than gettimeofday().
Even better than clock_gettime() is that you can select either
CLOCK_MONOTONIC, or even CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW. These clocks offer
high precision time. And the _RAW variant will never roll back
due to NTP drift or daylight savings, or otherwise.
I've adjusted this code to select the right clock method auto-
matically based on what's available in the OS. This means that
if you're running a very old linux version, MacOS or other,
you will automatically get the best clocksource available.
I've tested all Linux clocksources by selectively compiling and
running a 10k+ timer test suite. In all cases I confirmed that
the 3 POSIX Linux clocksources worked properly, and were
selected properly.
I've modified the OS X compile path to use the high-res clock
source for all time functions, but I can't confirm it works or
that it compiles.
As for WIN32, I confirmed that the used clocksource is indeed
a Monotonic clocksource, so good news: that code section appears
to be exactly what it should be.
`errorstream` must not be overly verbose as clientside it is directly printed
onto the ingame chat window. These days, the serverlist can contain > 200k bytes,
so better print it to warningstream if the data buffer is too long.
Outdated servers are always sending tiledefs with culling
enabled no matter what, as the value was previously entirely
ignored.
To compensate, we must (1) detect that we're running against
an old server with a new client, and (2) disable culling for
mesh, plantlike, firelike and liquid draw types no matter what
the server is telling us.
In order to achieve this, we need to bump the protocol version
since we cannot rely on the tiledef version, and test for it
being older. I've bumped the protocol version, although that
should have likely happened in the actual change that introduced
the new backface_culling PR #3578. Fortunately that's only 2
commits back at this point.
We also explicitly test for the drawtype to assure we are not
changing the culling value for other nodes, where it should
remain enabled.
This was tested against various pub servers, including 0.4.13 and
0.4.12.
Fixes#3598
Backface culling is enabled by default for all tiles, as this
is how the lua parser initializes each tiledef. We revert to
always using the value from the tiledef since it is always
read and serialized.
Mods that wish to enable culling for e.g. mesh nodes, now can
specify the following to enable backface culling:
tiles = {{ name = "tex.png", backface_culling = true }},
Note the double '{' and use of 'name' key here! In the same
fashion, backface_culling can be disabled for any node now.
I've tested this against the new door models and this properly
allows me to disable culling per node. I've also tested this
against my crops mod which uses mesh nodes where culling needs
to be disabled, and tested also with plantlike drawtype nodes
where we want this to continue to be disabled.
No default setting has changed. The defaults are just migrated
from nodedef.cpp to c_content.cpp.
cloneMesh() has to use a switch in order to create a different
mesh buffer type depending on vertex type. (Credit: the new cloneMesh
was written by RealBadAngel.)
To avoid repetitive code, all other methods use getVertexPitchFromType()
to automatically adapt the indexing to the vertex type at runtime.
The pageflip mode requires a stereo quadbuffer, and a modern graphic
card. Patch tested with NVidia 3D Vision.
The mini-map is not drawn, but that's what is done for topbottom and
sidebyside modes as well.
Also most of the time the user would prefer the HUD to be off. That's
for the user to decide though, and toggle it manually.
Finally, the interocular distance (aka eye separation) is twice as much
as the "3d_paralax_strength" settings. I find this a strange design
decision. I didn't want to chance this though, since it's how the other
3d modes interpret this settings.
Previously, we assumed that reply->str was NULL
terminated. However, this turned out to be not true,
as users reported crashes in strlen connected to
where reply->str was appended to an std::string.
Use the method recomended by the docs, to read the
length separately.
Removing the target file on other platforms was enabled likely unintentionally
by commit 5f1f1151d3a9c113902630adc16cc3f4845da7ba.
This may be the reason why there has been corruption of files on Linux on hard
shutdowns.
Previously I described the problem and this fix in issue #3084.
My commit
e2d54c9f9275e4f77ec33be8054621d42945f7a4 "shutdown when requested from lua in singleplayer too"
broke minetest's feature to connect to servers. The client crashed
after the connection init was complete.
Thanks to @sofar for reporting the bug.
Fixes#3498.
If an `XDG_CACHE_HOME` can't be found or `RUN_IN_PLACE` is enabled,
`path_cache` is left at its default of `$PATH_USER/cache`
(at a time when `PATH_USER` is `..`), rather than being reset to
`$PATH_USER/cache` after `PATH_USER` has been properly set.
This allows other applications (e.g. minetestmapper) to interrogate
the database while minetest is running, without causing an almost
certain minetest crash.

Fixes#3362.
Fix regression of commit
5e507c9829942c434a6f1ae7a4f3a488c7e50bef "Add server side ncurses terminal"
where no line termination character was printed after a
lua print outside of terminal mode.
Fixes#3350.
This adds a chat console the server owner can use for administration
or to talk with players.
It runs in its own thread, which makes the user interface immune to
the server's lag, behaving just like a client, except timeout.
As it uses the same console code as the f10 console, things like nick
completion or a scroll buffer basically come for free.
The terminal itself is written in a general way so that adding a
client version later on is just about implementing an interface.
Fatal errors are printed after the console exists and the ncurses
terminal buffer gets cleaned up with endwin(), so that the error still
remains visible.
The server owner can chose their username their entered text will
have in chat and where players can send PMs to.
Once the username is secured with a password to prevent anybody to
take over the server, the owner can execute admin tasks over the
console.
This change includes a contribution by @kahrl who has improved ncurses
library detection.
The Atomic implementation was only partially correct, and was very complex.
Use locks for sake of simplicity, following KISS principle.
Only remaining atomic operation use is time of day speed, because that
really is only read + written.
Also fixes a bug with m_time_conversion_skew only being decremented, never
incremented (Regresion from previous commit).
atomic.h changes:
* Add GenericAtomic<T> class for non-integral types like floats.
* Remove some last remainders from atomic.h of the volatile use.
It isn't possible to use atomic operations for floats, so don't use them there.
Having a lock is good out of other reasons too, because this way the float time
and the integer time both match, and can't get different values in a race,
e.g. when two setTimeofDay() get executed simultaneously.
Cleanup:
* Remove volatile keyword, it is of no use at all. [1]
* Remove the enable_if stuff. It had no use either.
The most likely explanation why the enable_if stuff was there is that it
was used as something like a STATIC_ASSERT to verify that sizeof(T) is not larger
than sizeof(void *). This check however is not just misplaced in a place where we
already use a lock, it isn't needed at all, as gcc will just generate a call to
to the runtime if it compiles for platforms that don't support atomic instructions.
The runtime will then most likely use locks.
Code style fixes:
* Prefix name of the mutex
* Line everything up nicely, where it makes things look nice
* Filling \ continuations with spaces is code style rule
Added operations on the atomic var:
* Compare and swap
* Swap
The second point of the cleanup also fixes the Android build of the next commit.

On Windows Release x64 bit build this changes:
ProfilerGraph::put
1.68% -> 0.061%
ProfilerGraph::draw
12% -> 17.%
So yes, there is a tradeoff between saving profiling data
(executed always) and drawing the profiler graph (executed very rarely).
But usually you don't have the profiler graph open.
For several years now, the lua script lock has been completely broken.
This commit fixes the main issue (creation of a temporary rather than
scoped object), and fixes a subsequent deadlock issue caused by
nested script API calls by adding support for recursive mutexes.
When compiled with optimizations, the most recent versions of clang seem
to 'optimize' out a crucial "and %reg, 0x7FFFFFFF" instruction in noise2d(),
probably because it somehow assumed the variable n would never become greater
than that amount.
Indeed, signed integer underflow is undefined behavior in C and C++, so while
this optimization is "correct" in that sense, it breaks lots of existing code.
Solved by changing n to an unsigned type, making behavior well-defined.
Previously, the server called FATAL_ERROR when a Lua error occured.
This caused a (mostly useless) core dump.
The server now simply throws an exception, which is caught and printed before
exiting with a non-zero return value.
This also fixes a number of instances where errors were logged multiple times.

Use this macro to disallow copying of an object using the assignment
operator or copy constructor. This catches otherwise silent-but-deadly
mistakes such as "ServerMap map = env->getMap();" at compile time.
If so desired, it is still possible to copy a class, but it now requires
an explicit call to memcpy or std::copy.

Previously, the invocation of Logger::addOutput(ILogOutput *out) led to
an out of bounds write of the m_outputs vector, resulting in the
m_silenced_levels array being modified.
Fortunately, the only caller of that method was android system logging,
and only since a few commits ago.
-> Get rid of Logger::logToSystem and use normal downstream output system for android instead
-> Give the downstream output system more information: enrich the log function of ILogOutput
with information and add ICombinedLogOutput for easier use.
-> Make Logger::getLevelLabel() static and public so that it can be used by downstream log output.
-> Add g_ and m_ prefixes where required

Flushes the buffer of rollback actions that wait to get saved in two more situations:
1. Flushes in the destructor of the rollback. This makes the server not
forget the last < 500 rollback entries when it shuts down.
2. Flushes the rollback when /rollback_check is invoked. This is neccessary
as otherwise it leads to confusion if users want to test the rollback functionality
by placing a node and then executing the check on it, or if the actions were
very recent out of other reasons.
Everywhere where wstrgettext was used, its output was converted back
to utf8. As wstrgettext internally converts the return value
from utf8 to wstring, it has been a waste. Remove the function, and
use strgettext instead.
- setOpenedTrees(): this internal function was calling setSelected()
to update m_selected. Since setSelected() calls autoScroll(),
this caused the scrollbar to scroll back to the selected row
in some cases when that shouldn't be done.
For example, clicking the "+" to open a tree caused autoscroll.
Fix this by making setOpenedTrees() modify m_selected directly.
- setDynamicData(): set scrollbar position after calling
setSelected(), not before. This avoids setSelected()'s autoscroll
messing up the scrollbar position again.
- setSelected(): If an invisible row is selected, open all parents
of the selected row in order to make the selected row visible.
This fixes the issue where all the trees are closed again whenever
you return from the setting edit dialog to the settings tab.

The invsize formspec element is outdated. Even though,
it is still supported, only a deprecation warning is shown,
introduced by commit [1]. The lua context passed to the
log_deprecated method added by commit [1] is NULL for the
invsize deprecation warning, as its run on the client and not
the server.
Commit [1] has removed checks for NULL inside the log_deprecated
method, resulting in a crash when a formspec with an invsize
element is parsed. This commit puts the check back.
Fixes#3260.

This might break some mods, but it is important for all uses of the param2 to
be documented.
This doesn't need a serialisation version or network protocol version change,
as old clients will still work on new servers, and it is bearable to have
new clients getting non rotated plants on old servers.
It returns the index used in mg->biomemap for a given biome name.
The biomemap is useless without this unless you re-register all existing biomes,
which could cause problems for anyone else trying to use biomemap.

4. Make findSpawnPos() respect the border
2 fixes a lua crash if a player drops an item outside map bounds.
3 fixes an assertion crash if a player leaves when being outside map bounds,
and then rejoins.
Because the count is serialized as u16, this would cause overflow.
If minetest later deserialized a mapblock with an incorrect
static object count, it would be unable to find the NameIdMapping
(which comes after the StaticObjectList) and abort with an error
such as "Invalid block data in database: unsupported NameIdMapping
version" (issue #2610).
Sidelen larger than 16 is essential for low density decorations
With sidelen > 16 chunksize may not be divisable by sidelen if
chunksize is changed, in this situation setting sidelen = chunksize
is desirable and should not create error messages.
Change a remaining assert(0) call to FATAL_ERROR(msg).
There was a regression since commit
ced6d20295a8263757d57c02a07ffcb66688a163 "For usages of assert() that are meant to persist in Release builds (when NDEBUG is defined), replace those usages with persistent alternatives"
where when an "uncatched" exception is thrown inside a "side thread",
the program doesn't abort anymore.
This led to the problem @netinetwalker experienced where the emergethread
got an unhandled exception for loading a mapblock while redis was loading,
(see #3196) and then jmped outside its loop to work down its queue.
This resulted in the server not doing any emerges anymore.
Thanks to @netinetwalker for spotting the error, proposing a fix, and testing it.
Error due to @est31's merging changes to PR #3202 to add more error reporting for invalid reply types, commit:
524a7656e3e5cd671b05c13e2ad69cb84bad0423 "redis: throw error if block request failed"
Now we branch out on the valid reply type "not found".
On world load the collision code can not see node boxes, since the
nodes have not been loaded. Thus it collided only at the next full
node. However, standing on a slab on world load leaded to sinking into
it until the world finished loading. Then one maybe fell further, if
the node below was not walkable.
Now, with this commit, when no node around the player has been loaded
it simply does not move the player.
Fixes#3196. Before, we didn't throw an error, and the engine thought the
block isn't occupied. But in fact it might be that redis is still loading,
and the block does exist in the database. The result was a cheesy map.
Why doing things simple ? Use pointer instead of strings to save players and remove them.
Saving players by name does a lookup to find pointer we already have ! Idem with removePlayer
Also remove unused removePlayer(peer_id), it's never called

-> Fix style at other serialisation methods too

Use std::queue instead of std::set, we don't need such a heavy container.
Don't convert position to int to convert it back to float in the next function.
The legacy code added in commit
d879a539cd19ddd1ee34afec2512fb2238de2822 - "Add minetest.swap_node"
for sending the whole mapblock to older clients on the case of a node
modification with swap_node, had the problem that the block chosen to be
sent to the client was referenced with node coordinates and not with
block coordinates, resulting in getting the wrong block sent to the client.
Entity positions are serialized as F1000. Disallow placing
entities outside safe borders with the minetest.add_entity
call.
Note that this patch only enforces those boundaries for
placing entities, moving entities that move outside boundaries
aren't affected.
Thanks to @nanepiwo for pointing this out.
1. Do two renames:
* SER_FMT_CLIENT_VER_LOWEST -> SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST_WRITE
* SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST -> SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST_READ
Now the two define values are consistently named with the _WRITE defines
SER_FMT_VER_{HIGHEST,LOWEST}_WRITE, and to better point out what the two
serialisation versions actually are for.
2. wrap some lines in doc/worldformat.txt, and point out that the node
timers are serialized at a later point, as this can cause confusion about
what now happens (if one doesn't strictly read the if block's conditions).
3. some whitespace fixes in NodeTimerList::serialize, and one new comment.
Modders are now able to select the range of ore column height,
and the midpoint at which they 'grow' starting from.
This commit adds three new parameters for the 'sheet' ore type:
column_height_min, column_height_max, and column_midpoint_factor.
clust_size is now deprecated for this ore type.
Its obvious that "u16 command" is inside every packet, therefore this
commit removes all mentions of the command, if non-array like notation
is used. We already didn't add "u16 command" to new packets or removed
it at packet changes, so now we remove it from existing packets.
Use in-place locale directory if that exists, and
static one (RUN_IN_PLACE or CUSTOM_LOCALEDIR) doesn't exist.

Fixes two bugs:
-> Regression of commit [1] where if we use RUN_IN_PLACE=false,
but don't make install, locales aren't found. One might
think this is no regression, as its no bug, but all other
paths (mainmenu, etc.) are detected properly.
-> Regression of commit [1] where locales don't work on windows.
