This is a very early prototype. It works, but it is probably not efficient
or reliable. However, the documentation format it parses is stable, so I
will begin moving the documentation into the headers.
This implementation is loosely inspired by the original paper on the
Mersenne Twister, and borrows code from a public-domain implementation of
it, adapting it to fit the style of Telodendria's code, and fixing a few
bugs regarding the size of the data type used.
Neither C nor POSIX provide a good, thread-safe pseudorandom number
generator. The OpenBSD linker started complaining about the use of
rand_r(), and no standard alternative presented itself as worthy of
consideration, so I finally decided it was time to roll my own PRNG.
This is useful for having a TLS and a non-TLS version port, like Synapse.
I verified that the multiple-servers does in fact work as intended,
although the TLS server part is broken; I must be doing something
incorrectly with LibreSSL in setting up the server.
This is the easiest and cleanest way to get logging into some of the
fundamental APIs, such as the database and TLS APIs. We don't want to
have to pass logging functions to those, but they can safely use the
global logging configuration.
Both do buffered reads and writes, but IoCopy() uses IoRead() and
IoWrite() directly, whereas StreamCopy() relies on StreamGetc() and
StreamPutc(), which manipulate the stream buffers.
These functions previously operated on the assumption that fgetc() would
block; however it will not block on HttpServer streams because those are
non-blocking. They now check error conditions properly before failing
prematurely.
