A recent change to v8's API now makes it impossible to memcpy to a
v8::ArrayBuffer without causing it to be externalized. This means that
the garbage collector will not automatically free the memory when the
object is collected.
When/If the necessary API is included to allow the above
Buffer#toArrayBuffer() will be reintroduced.

This commit introduces `readableObjectMode` and
`writableObjectMode` options for Duplex streams.
This can be used mostly to make parsers and
serializers with Transform streams.
Also the docs section about stream state objects
is removed, because it is not relevant anymore.
The example from the section is remade to show
new options.

compare() works like String.localeCompare such that:
Buffer.compare(a, b) === a.compare(b);
equals() does a native check to see if two buffers are equal.

Forcibly flushes the request headers. You need this with long-lived
HTTP connections where the first data isn't written until the connection
has been established (think: tunneling requests over HTTP CONNECT.)

In tls.connect a unix socket connection to a path may be made in
recent versions of node by specifying the value for the path
property.

Introduce new signature for both `dgram.createSocket` method and
`dgram.Socket` constructor:
dgram.createSocket(options, [listener])
Options should contain `type` property and may contain `reuseAddr`
property. When `reuseAddr` is `true` - SO_REUSEADDR will be issued on
socket on bind.

This prevents segfaults when a native method is reassigned to a
different object (which corrupts args.This()). When unwrapping,
clients should use args.Holder() instead of args.This().

Move `createCredentials` to `tls` module and rename it to
`createSecureContext`. Make it use default values from `tls` module:
`DEFAULT_CIPHERS` and `DEFAULT_ECDH_CURVE`.
fix#7249
The `Agent#request()` function was removed in
f3189ace6b, so don't
use it in the documentation example. The function
wasn't documented in the first place.
V8 was upgraded from 3.22 to 3.24 in commit 1c7bf24. Upgrade source
files in test/addons/ and automatically generated tests from
doc/api/addons.markdown to the new V8 API.
This coincidentally fixes a bug in src/node_object_wrap.h where it was
still using the old V8 weak persistent handle interface, which is gone
in 3.24.
Expose localPort for binding to a specific port for outbound
connections.
If localAddress is not specified '0.0.0.0' is used for ip4 and '::'
for ip6 connections.
Fixes#7092
This implements the user-facing APIs that lets one run a child process
and block until it exits.
Logic shared with the async counterpart of each function was refactored
to enable code reuse.
Docs and tests are included.
The AsyncListener API has been moved into the "tracing" module in order
to keep the process object free from unnecessary clutter.

Make the HMAC digest method configurable. Update crypto.pbkdf2() and
crypto.pbkdf2Sync() to take an extra, optional digest argument.
Before this commit, SHA-1 (admittedly the most common method) was used
exclusively.
Fixes#6553.
Before this commit, verification exceptions had err.message set to the
OpenSSL error code (e.g. 'UNABLE_TO_VERIFY_LEAF_SIGNATURE').
This commit moves the error code to err.code and replaces err.message
with a human-readable error. Example:
// before
{
message: 'UNABLE_TO_VERIFY_LEAF_SIGNATURE'
}
// after
{
code: 'UNABLE_TO_VERIFY_LEAF_SIGNATURE',
message: 'unable to verify the first certificate'
}
UNABLE_TO_VERIFY_LEAF_SIGNATURE is a good example of why you want this:
the error code suggests that it's the last certificate that fails to
validate while it's actually the first certificate in the chain.
Going by the number of mailing list posts and StackOverflow questions,
it's a source of confusion to many people.
spawn stdio options can be a 'stream', but the following code
fails with "Incorrect value for stdio stream: [object Object]",
despite being a stream. The problem is the test isn't really
for a stream, its for an object with a numeric `.fd` property,
and streams do not have an fd until their async 'open' event
has occurred. This is reasonable, but was not documented.
child_process.spawn('date', [], {stdio: [
'ignore',
fs.createWriteStream('out.txt',{flags:'a'}),
'ignore']})
There was a flaw in the old API that has been fixed. Now the
asyncListener callback is now the "create" object property in the
callback object, and is optional.
The fact that the "exit" event passes the exit code as an argument
as omitted from the documentation. This adds the explanation and
augments the example code to show that.
The UNIX domain is also known as the LOCAL domain (AF_LOCAL), and
node/libuv implements it on Windows using named pipes. The API
documentation did not describe the naming rules for named pipes, and
also repeatedly described `listen(path)` as being UNIX, which it is not
on Windows.
Closes#6743
This adds two new member functions getAuthTag and setAuthTag that
are useful for AES-GCM encryption modes. Use getAuthTag after
Cipheriv.final, transmit the tag along with the data and use
Decipheriv.setAuthTag to have the encrypted data verified.
The null signal test existed, but only tested the case where the target
process existed, not when it did not exist.
Also clarified that SIGUSR1 is reserved by Node.js only for receiveing,
its not at all reserved when sending a signal with kill().
kill(pid, 'O_RDWR'), or any other node constant, "worked". I fixed this
by also checking for 'SIG'. The same as done in the isSignal() function.
Now the signal names supported by process.kill() are the same as those
supported by process.on().
