Motivation

Fixes #1974, cc @CodeFunta

Solution

  • Add a custom tokio::net::windows::named_pipe::NamedPipeClient wrapper to be compatible with UnixStream
    • might look intimidating but it's just re-implementing the same traits and the split method, only real implementation is in connect
  • Bump server thread stack size from 64kb to 256kb

Successfully tested after a bump in thread stack size

PR Checklist

  • Added Tests
  • Added Documentation
  • Updated the changelog
  • Breaking changes

P.S.: CI needs quite the revamp, it's currently only covering Windows with no features and Linux with either all or no features;
@mattsse maybe just copy it over from Foundry?

thanks for picking this up.

before we merge this, it'd be great to have additional ipc tests in anvil first to test the provider.

the tests are the same as websockets, do you want me to change from geth to anvil?

we currently only do ipc e2e testing on unix for anvil

https://github.com/foundry-rs/foundry/blob/6ecebad62014ac46513099f03e8c0b80f5d9d4b6/anvil/tests/it/main.rs#L10-L11

with this we can remove the cfg and it should also work on windows, so would be great to test this first via a PR with patched ethers

foundry tests lgtm.

could use the windows stream as is or replicate the Windows stream implementation, both are essentially the same.
