Integer overflow is undefined behaviour in C and this indeed caused
problems on Solaris/SPARC (at least in some cases). Fix is to
subtract unsigned integers instead, and then cast result to a signed
one, which is implementation-defined behaviour and used to work.
Strictly speaking, we should compare (unsigned) result with the maximum
value of the corresponding signed integer type instead, this will be
defined behaviour. This will require much more changes though, and
considered to be overkill for now.
Previous code incorrectly assumed that nodes with identical keys are linked
together. This might not be true after tree rebalance.

The cycle->new_log.file may not be set before config parsing finished if
there are no error_log directive defined at global level. Fix is to
copy it after config parsing.

the last path component if "if_not_owner" parameter is used.
To prevent race condition we have to open a file before checking its owner and
there's no way to change access flags for already opened file descriptor, so
we disable symlinks for the last path component at all if flags allow creating
or truncating the file.
Solaris has AT_FDCWD defined to unsigned value, and comparison of a file
descriptor with it causes warnings in modern versions of gcc. Explicitly
cast AT_FDCWD to ngx_fd_t to resolve these warnings.
To completely disable symlinks (disable_symlinks on)
we use openat(O_NOFOLLOW) for each path component
to avoid races.
To allow symlinks with the same owner (disable_symlinks if_not_owner),
use openat() (followed by fstat()) and fstatat(AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW),
and then compare uids between fstat() and fstatat().
As there is a race between openat() and fstatat() we don't
know if openat() in fact opened symlink or not. Therefore,
we have to compare uids even if fstatat() reports the opened
component isn't a symlink (as we don't know whether it was
symlink during openat() or not).
Default value is off, i.e. symlinks are allowed.
Nuke NGX_PARSE_LARGE_TIME, it's not used since 0.6.30. The only error
ngx_parse_time() can currently return is NGX_ERROR, check it explicitly
and make sure to cast it to appropriate type (either time_t or ngx_msec_t)
to avoid signedness warnings on platforms with unsigned time_t (notably QNX).
The PCRE JIT compiler uses mmap to allocate memory for its executable codes, so
we have to explicitly call the pcre_free_study() function to free this memory.
The ngx_hash_init() function did not expect call with zero elements count,
which caused FPE error on configs with an empty "types" block in http context
and "types_hash_max_size" > 10000.
Example configuration to reproduce:
events { }
http {
types_hash_max_size 10001;
types {}
server {}
}
It is currently used from master process on abnormal worker termination to
unlock accept mutex (unlocking of accept mutex was broken in 1.0.2). It is
expected to be used in the future to unlock other mutexes as well.
Shared mutex code was rewritten to make this possible in a safe way, i.e.
with a check if lock was actually held by the exited process. We again use
pid to lock mutex, and use separate atomic variable for a count of processes
waiting in sem_wait().
Previously it used a hardcoded value of 300 seconds. Also added the
"valid=" parameter to the "resolver" directive that can be used to
override the cache validity time.
