nghttp2_session_upgrade
=======================

Synopsis
--------

*#include <nghttp2/nghttp2.h>*

.. function:: int nghttp2_session_upgrade(nghttp2_session *session, const uint8_t *settings_payload, size_t settings_payloadlen, void *stream_user_data)

    
    Performs post-process of HTTP Upgrade request.  This function can
    be called from both client and server, but the behavior is very
    different in each other.
    
    .. warning::
    
      This function is deprecated in favor of
      `nghttp2_session_upgrade2()`, because this function lacks the
      parameter to tell the library the request method used in the
      original HTTP request.  This information is required for client
      to validate actual response body length against content-length
      header field (see `nghttp2_option_set_no_http_messaging()`).  If
      HEAD is used in request, the length of response body must be 0
      regardless of value included in content-length header field.
    
    If called from client side, the *settings_payload* must be the
    value sent in ``HTTP2-Settings`` header field and must be decoded
    by base64url decoder.  The *settings_payloadlen* is the length of
    *settings_payload*.  The *settings_payload* is unpacked and its
    setting values will be submitted using `nghttp2_submit_settings()`.
    This means that the client application code does not need to submit
    SETTINGS by itself.  The stream with stream ID=1 is opened and the
    *stream_user_data* is used for its stream_user_data.  The opened
    stream becomes half-closed (local) state.
    
    If called from server side, the *settings_payload* must be the
    value received in ``HTTP2-Settings`` header field and must be
    decoded by base64url decoder.  The *settings_payloadlen* is the
    length of *settings_payload*.  It is treated as if the SETTINGS
    frame with that payload is received.  Thus, callback functions for
    the reception of SETTINGS frame will be invoked.  The stream with
    stream ID=1 is opened.  The *stream_user_data* is ignored.  The
    opened stream becomes half-closed (remote).
    
    This function returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following
    negative error codes:
    
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_NOMEM`
        Out of memory.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT`
        The *settings_payload* is badly formed.
    :macro:`NGHTTP2_ERR_PROTO`
        The stream ID 1 is already used or closed; or is not available.
