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.

-- Compatibility layer for bitwise operations

-- First try the bit32 lib
-- Lua 5.3 has it with compat enabled
-- Lua 5.2 has it by default
if _G.bit32 then
	return _G.bit32;
end

do
	-- Lua 5.3 and 5.4 would be able to use native infix operators
	local ok, bitop = pcall(require, "prosody.util.bit53")
	if ok then
		return bitop;
	end
end

error "No bit module found. See https://prosody.im/doc/depends#bitop";
