mod_posix: Move everything to util.startup
This allows greater control over the order of events.
Notably, the internal ordering between daemonization, initialization of
libunbound and setup of signal handling is sensitive.
libunbound starts a separate thread for processing DNS requests.
If this thread is started before signal handling has been set up, it
will not inherit the signal handlers and instead behave as it would have
before signal handlers were set up, i.e. cause the whole process to
immediately exit.
libunbound is usually initialized on the first DNS request, usually
triggered by an outgoing s2s connection attempt.
If daemonization happens before signals have been set up, signals may
not be processed at all.
/* managed_pointer.h
These macros allow wrapping an allocator/deallocator into an object that is
owned and managed by the Lua garbage collector.
Why? It is too easy to leak objects that need to be manually released, especially
when dealing with the Lua API which can throw errors from many operations.
USAGE
-----
For example, given an object that can be created or released with the following
functions:
fancy_buffer* new_buffer();
void free_buffer(fancy_buffer* p_buffer)
You could declare a managed version like so:
MANAGED_POINTER_ALLOCATOR(new_managed_buffer, fancy_buffer*, new_buffer, free_buffer)
And then, when you need to create a new fancy_buffer in your code:
fancy_buffer *my_buffer = new_managed_buffer(L);
NOTES
-----
Managed objects MUST NOT be freed manually. They will automatically be
freed during the next GC sweep after your function exits (even if via an error).
The managed object is pushed onto the stack, but should generally be ignored,
but you'll need to bear this in mind when creating managed pointers in the
middle of a sequence of stack operations.
