ssl.https.request dont work

[brunoos]

Can you give a small code example of the problem?

You can see the documentation of https.request at:

Seeing this error at Homebrew CI too. In particular, it's this problem: luarocks/luarocks#1302

Will try to extract an example, but currently my way of reproducing it is to install luasec then try to install any other rock.

The problem seems to be with luasocket... luasec's https is a wrapper to luasocket's http module.
Could it be luaL_Buffer problem in Lua 5.4.3?

@update:
I did a wrong test, I don't know if the problem is with luasocket yet...

[brunoos]

It seems Lua 5.4.3 broke luasocket... it works fine with Lua 5.4.2.

Maybe, it broke luasec too.

[brunoos]

The function buffer_meth_receive expects 3 parameters, with parameters 2 and 3 being optional.

However, luaL_buffinit can push values into the stack and that is breaking the function if 2 or 3 are missing.

One solution is always push nothing for 2 and 3 if they are missing. Something ugly like this seems to work:

int buffer_meth_receive(lua_State *L, p_buffer buf) {
+    if (lua_gettop(L) < 3) lua_settop(L, 3);
    int err = IO_DONE, top = lua_gettop(L);

Of course, all the code needs to be reviewed now (and other functions).
