# HACKING
|
|
|
|
## Build
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
make # normal build
|
|
make debug # with symbols
|
|
make asan # AddressSanitizer
|
|
make release # optimized
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Test
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
./test_basic.sh # functional tests
|
|
./test_stress.sh 20 60 # 20 clients, 60 seconds
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Debug
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Memory leaks
|
|
ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=1 ./tnt
|
|
|
|
# Or use valgrind
|
|
make valgrind
|
|
valgrind --leak-check=full ./tnt
|
|
|
|
# Static analysis
|
|
make check
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
main.c → entry point, signal handling
|
|
ssh_server.c → SSH protocol, client threads
|
|
chat_room.c → client list, message broadcast
|
|
message.c → persistent storage
|
|
tui.c → terminal rendering
|
|
utf8.c → UTF-8 string handling
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Thread Safety
|
|
|
|
- `g_room->lock`: RWlock for client list and messages
|
|
- `client->ref_lock`: Mutex for reference counting
|
|
- Each client runs in detached thread
|
|
- Reference counting prevents use-after-free
|
|
|
|
## Memory Management
|
|
|
|
- Clients: ref-counted, freed when ref==0
|
|
- Messages: fixed ring buffer (MAX_MESSAGES)
|
|
- No dynamic string allocation
|
|
|
|
## Known Limits
|
|
|
|
- Max 64 clients (MAX_CLIENTS)
|
|
- Max 100 messages in memory (MAX_MESSAGES)
|
|
- Max 1024 bytes per message (MAX_MESSAGE_LEN)
|
|
- Max 64 bytes username (MAX_USERNAME_LEN)
|
|
|
|
## Common Bugs to Avoid
|
|
|
|
1. Don't use `strtok()` on client data - use `strtok_r()` or copy first
|
|
2. Always increment ref_count before using client outside lock
|
|
3. Check SSH API return values (can be SSH_ERROR, SSH_AGAIN, or negative)
|
|
4. UTF-8 chars are multi-byte - use utf8_* functions
|
|
|
|
## Adding Features
|
|
|
|
1. Add new command in `execute_command()` (ssh_server.c:190)
|
|
2. Add new mode in `client_mode_t` enum (common.h:30)
|
|
3. Add new vim key in `handle_key()` (ssh_server.c:220)
|
|
|
|
## Debugging Tips
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Find memory issues
|
|
make asan
|
|
ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=1:abort_on_error=1 ./tnt
|
|
|
|
# Check thread issues
|
|
gcc -fsanitize=thread ...
|
|
|
|
# Profile
|
|
gcc -pg ...
|
|
./tnt
|
|
gprof tnt
|
|
```
