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.

This file documents the structure of the roster object.

table roster {
  [string bare_jid] = roster_item
}

table roster_item {
  string subscription = "none" | "to" | "from" | "both"
  string name = Opaque string set by client. (optional)
  set groups = a set of opaque strings set by the client
  boolean ask = nil | "subscribe" - a value of true indicates subscription is pending
}

The roster is available as
 hosts[host].sessions[username].roster
and a copy is made to session.roster for all sessions.

All modifications to a roster should be done through the rostermanager.
