mod_firewall: Initialize compiled chunk just once for all handlers This should fix a case where some stateful dependencies (such as throttles) produce separate instances for every call to new_handler(), leading to surprising behaviour (e.g. rules executed via JUMP CHAIN vs ::deliver would have separate rate limits). This also adds better error handling in case the compiled code fails to run for some reason.

summary: XMPP-layer access control for Prosody
---

Introduction
============

This module enforces access policies using Prosody's new [roles and
permissions framework](https://prosody.im/doc/developers/permissions). It can
be used to grant restricted access to an XMPP account or services.

This module is still in its early stages, and prone to change. Feedback from
testers is welcome. At this early stage, it should not be solely relied upon
for account security purposes.

Configuration
=============

There is no configuration, apart from Prosody's normal roles and permissions
configuration.

Permissions
===========

`xmpp:federate`
: Communicate with other users and services on other hosts on the XMPP network
`xmpp:account:messages:read`
: Read incoming messages
`xmpp:account:messages:write`
