This PR adds a new `--cpus` configuration option to address CPU
detection issues in virtualized and containerized environments where
`_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF` and `_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN` return host CPU counts
instead of allocated container CPUs.
## Problem
In containerized deployments, coturn detects the host's CPU count (e.g.,
128 CPUs) instead of the container's allocated CPUs (e.g., 2 CPUs). This
causes the server to create excessive relay threads and database
connections, leading to resource exhaustion and performance issues.
## Solution
Added a new `cpus` configuration option that allows manual override of
CPU detection:
### Command Line Usage
```bash
turnserver --cpus 2
```
### Configuration File Usage
```ini
# Override system CPU count detection for containers
cpus=2
```
## Key Features
- **Backward Compatible**: No changes needed for existing deployments
- **Input Validation**: Values must be between 1 and 128 with proper
error handling
- **Comprehensive Documentation**: Updated man pages and example config
files
- **Both Interfaces**: Works via command line and configuration file
## Testing
The implementation has been thoroughly tested:
```bash
# Container with 2 allocated CPUs on 128-CPU host
$ turnserver --cpus 2
INFO: System cpu num is 128 # Host detection
INFO: System enable num is 128 # Host detection
INFO: Configured cpu num is 2 # Override applied
INFO: Total General servers: 2 # Correct thread count
```
- ✅ Command line option: `--cpus 8` creates 8 relay servers
- ✅ Config file option: `cpus=6` creates 6 relay servers
- ✅ Error handling: Invalid values show appropriate errors
- ✅ Default behavior: Without option, uses system detection
- ✅ RFC5769 tests: All protocol tests still pass
## Files Modified
- `src/apps/relay/mainrelay.c` - Core implementation
- `src/apps/relay/mainrelay.h` - Added configuration flag
- `examples/etc/turnserver.conf` - Added documentation and example
- `man/man1/turnserver.1` - Updated man page
This change directly addresses the resource consumption issues in
containerized environments while maintaining full backward
compatibility.
Fixes#1628.
TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 can be enabled using `--tlsv1` and `--tlsv1_1`
arguments accordingly
That assumes openssl version being used has these versions enabled
(which as of openssl-3.5 is not by default)
Invert `--no-rfc5780` option to be true by default
Make it `--rfc5780` to enable it
Update example/recommended configuration files
Passing `--no-rfc5780` will have no effect as this is the default
behavior now
There are two different API's in OpenSSL for configuring TLS ciphers,
one for TLS 1.2 and below, and another for TLS 1.3. coturn only calls
the TLS 1.2 API when handling the `--cipher-list` configuration option,
which means that it's not possible to use non-default ciphersuites with
TLS 1.3 connections.
This PR calls appropriate OpenSSL API to allow TLS 1.3 ciphersuites to be configured.
This PR fixes some typos and formatting, and regenerates the manual
pages from the README files. These changes were originally included in
#1105, however I've split them out into a separate PR as requested.
As discussed in https://github.com/coturn/coturn/pull/478, if the
parameter only controls whether or not to send the software attribute
and not other production-relevant configurations, it should be named
accordingly.
The old --prod configuration option still works, but is now deprecated
and undocumented.
