/**
 * callback() - User server actions
 * @wsi:	Opaque websocket instance pointer
 * @reason:	The reason for the call
 * @user:	Pointer to per-session user data allocated by library
 * @in:		Pointer used for some callback reasons
 * @len:	Length set for some callback reasons
 *
 *	This callback is the way the user controls what is served.  All the
 *	protocol detail is hidden and handled by the library.
 *
 *	For each connection / session there is user data allocated that is
 *	pointed to by "user".  You set the size of this user data area when
 *	the library is initialized with libwebsocket_create_server.
 *
 *	You get an opportunity to initialize user data when called back with
 *	LWS_CALLBACK_ESTABLISHED reason.
 *
 *	LWS_CALLBACK_ESTABLISHED:  after the server completes a handshake with
 *				an incoming client
 *
 *      LWS_CALLBACK_CLIENT_ESTABLISHED: after your client connection completed
 *				a handshake with the remote server
 *
 *	LWS_CALLBACK_CLOSED: when the websocket session ends
 *
 *	LWS_CALLBACK_BROADCAST: signal to send to client (you would use
 *				libwebsocket_write() taking care about the
 *				special buffer requirements
 *
 *	LWS_CALLBACK_RECEIVE: data has appeared for this server endpoint from a
 *				remote client, it can be found at *in and is
 *				len bytes long
 *
 *	LWS_CALLBACK_CLIENT_RECEIVE_PONG: if you elected to see PONG packets,
 *				they appear with this callback reason.  PONG
 *				packets only exist in 04+ protocol
 *
 *	LWS_CALLBACK_CLIENT_RECEIVE: data has appeared from the server for the
 *				client connection, it can be found at *in and
 *				is len bytes long
 *
 *	LWS_CALLBACK_HTTP: an http request has come from a client that is not
 *				asking to upgrade the connection to a websocket
 *				one.  This is a chance to serve http content,
 *				for example, to send a script to the client
 *				which will then open the websockets connection.
 *				@in points to the URI path requested and
 *				libwebsockets_serve_http_file() makes it very
 *				simple to send back a file to the client.
 *
 *	LWS_CALLBACK_CLIENT_WRITEABLE:  if you call
 *		libwebsocket_callback_on_writable() on a connection, you will
 *		get this callback coming when the connection socket is able to
 *		accept another write packet without blocking.  If it already
 *		was able to take another packet without blocking, you'll get
 *		this callback at the next call to the service loop function.
 *
 *	The next four reasons are optional and only need taking care of if you
 * 	will be integrating libwebsockets sockets into an external polling
 * 	array.
 * 
 * 	LWS_CALLBACK_ADD_POLL_FD: libwebsocket deals with its poll() loop
 * 		internally, but in the case you are integrating with another
 * 		server you will need to have libwebsocket sockets share a
 * 		polling array with the other server.  This and the other
 * 		POLL_FD related callbacks let you put your specialized
 * 		poll array interface code in the callback for protocol 0, the
 * 		first protocol you support, usually the HTTP protocol in the
 * 		serving case.  This callback happens when a socket needs to be
 *		added to the polling loop: @user contains the fd, and
 * 		@len is the events bitmap (like, POLLIN).  If you are using the
 *		internal polling loop (the "service" callback), you can just
 * 		ignore these callbacks.
 *
 * 	LWS_CALLBACK_DEL_POLL_FD: This callback happens when a socket descriptor
 * 		needs to be removed from an external polling array.  @user is
 * 		the socket desricptor.  If you are using the internal polling
 * 		loop, you can just ignore it.
 *
 * 	LWS_CALLBACK_SET_MODE_POLL_FD: This callback happens when libwebsockets
 * 		wants to modify the events for the socket descriptor in @user.
 *		The handler should OR @len on to the events member of the pollfd
 * 		struct for this socket descriptor.  If you are using the
 *		internal polling loop, you can just ignore it.
 *
 *	LWS_CALLBACK_CLEAR_MODE_POLL_FD: This callback occurs when libwebsockets
 * 		wants to modify the events for the socket descriptor in @user.
 *		The handler should AND ~@len on to the events member of the
 * 		pollfd struct for this socket descriptor.  If you are using the
 *		internal polling loop, you can just ignore it.

/**
 * struct libwebsocket_protocols -	List of protocols and handlers server

 * @name:	Protocol name that must match the one given in the client
 *		Javascript new WebSocket(url, 'protocol') name
 * @callback:	The service callback used for this protocol.  It allows the
 *		service action for an entire protocol to be encapsulated in
 *		the protocol-specific callback
 * @per_session_data_size:	Each new connection using this protocol gets
 *		this much memory allocated on connection establishment and
 *		freed on connection takedown.  A pointer to this per-connection
 *		allocation is passed into the callback in the 'user' parameter
 * @owning_server:	the server init call fills in this opaque pointer when
 *		registering this protocol with the server.
 * @broadcast_socket_port: the server init call fills this in with the
 *		localhost port number used to forward broadcasts for this
 *		protocol
 * @broadcast_socket_user_fd:  the server init call fills this in ... the main()
 *		process context can write to this socket to perform broadcasts
 *		(use the libwebsockets_broadcast() api to do this instead,
 *		it works from any process context)
 * @protocol_index: which protocol we are starting from zero
 *
 *	This structure represents one protocol supported by the server.  An

/*
 * IMPORTANT NOTICE!
 *
 * When sending with websocket protocol (LWS_WRITE_TEXT or LWS_WRITE_BINARY)
 * the send buffer has to have LWS_SEND_BUFFER_PRE_PADDING bytes valid BEFORE
 * buf, and LWS_SEND_BUFFER_POST_PADDING bytes valid AFTER (buf + len).
 *
 * This allows us to add protocol info before and after the data, and send as
 * one packet on the network without payload copying, for maximum efficiency.
 *
 * So for example you need this kind of code to use libwebsocket_write with a
 * 128-byte payload
 *
 *   char buf[LWS_SEND_BUFFER_PRE_PADDING + 128 + LWS_SEND_BUFFER_POST_PADDING];
 *
 *   // fill your part of the buffer... for example here it's all zeros
 *   memset(&buf[LWS_SEND_BUFFER_PRE_PADDING], 0, 128);
 *
 *   libwebsocket_write(wsi, &buf[LWS_SEND_BUFFER_PRE_PADDING], 128);
 *
 * When sending LWS_WRITE_HTTP, there is no protocol addition and you can just
 * use the whole buffer without taking care of the above.
