By default follow the old behaviour, i.e. FASTCGI_KEEP_CONN flag isn't set
in request and application is responsible for closing connection once request
is done. To keep connections alive fastcgi_keep_conn must be activated.
As long as ngx_event_pipe() has more data read from upstream than specified
in p->length it's passed to input filter even if buffer isn't yet full. This
allows to process data with known length without relying on connection close
to signal data end.
By default p->length is set to -1 in upstream module, i.e. end of data is
indicated by connection close. To set it from per-protocol handlers upstream
input_filter_init() now called in buffered mode (as well as in
unbuffered mode).
Previous use of size_t may cause wierd effects on 32bit platforms with certain
big responses transferred in unbuffered mode.
Nuke "if (size > u->length)" check as it's not usefull anyway (preread
body data isn't subject to this check) and now requires additional check
for u->length being positive.
We no longer use r->headers_out.content_length_n as a primary source of
backend's response length. Instead we parse response length to
u->headers_in.content_length_n and copy to r->headers_out.content_length_n
when needed.
Just doing another connect isn't safe as peer.get() may expect peer.tries
to be strictly positive (this is the case e.g. with round robin with multiple
upstream servers). Increment peer.tries to at least avoid cpu hog in
round robin balancer (with the patch alert will be seen instead).
This is not enough to fully address the problem though, hence TODO. We
should be able to inform balancer that the error wasn't considered fatal
and it may make sense to retry the same peer.
The ngx_chain_update_chains() needs pool to free chain links used for buffers
with non-matching tags. Providing one helps to reduce memory consumption
for long-lived requests.
There were 2 buffers allocated on each buffer chain sent through chunked
filter (one buffer for chunk size, another one for trailing CRLF, about
120 bytes in total on 32-bit platforms). This resulted in large memory
consumption with long-lived requests sending many buffer chains. Usual
example of problematic scenario is streaming though proxy with
proxy_buffering set to off.
Introduced buffers reuse reduces memory consumption in the above problematic
scenario.

If file inode was not changed, cached file information was not updated
on retest. As a result stale information might be cached forever if file
attributes was changed and/or file was extended.
This fix also makes obsolete r4077 change of is_directio flag handling,
since this flag is updated together with other file information.
On file retest open_file_cache lost is_directio if file wasn't changed.
This caused unaligned operations under Linux to fail with EINVAL.
It wasn't noticeable with AIO though, as errors wasn't properly logged.
Read event should be blocked after reading body, else undefined behaviour
might occur on additional client activity. This fixes segmentation faults
observed with proxy_ignore_client_abort set.
Setting read->eof to 0 seems to be just a typo. It appeared in
nginx-0.0.1-2003-10-28-18:45:41 import (r164), while identical code in
ngx_recv.c introduced in the same import do actually set read->eof to 1.
Failure to set read->eof to 1 results in EOF not being generally detectable
from connection flags. On the other hand, kqueue won't report any read
events on such a connection since we use EV_CLEAR. This resulted in read
timeouts if such connection was cached and used for another request.
If connection has unsent alerts, SSL_shutdown() tries to send them even
if SSL_set_shutdown(SSL_RECEIVED_SHUTDOWN|SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN) was used.
This can be prevented by SSL_set_quiet_shutdown(). SSL_set_shutdown()
is required nevertheless to preserve session.
"max_ranges 0" disables ranges support at all,
"max_ranges 1" allows the single range, etc.
By default number of ranges is unlimited, to be precise, 2^31-1.
then nginx disables ranges and returns just the source response.
This fix should not affect well-behaving applications but will defeat
DoS attempts exploiting malicious byte ranges.
SSL_set_SSL_CTX() doesn't touch values cached within ssl connection
structure, it only changes certificates (at least as of now, OpenSSL
1.0.0d and earlier).
As a result settings like ssl_verify_client, ssl_verify_depth,
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers are only configurable on per-socket basis while
with SNI it should be possible to specify them different for two servers
listening on the same socket.
Workaround is to explicitly re-apply settings we care about from context
to ssl connection in servername callback.
Note that SSL_clear_options() is only available in OpenSSL 0.9.8m+. I.e.
with older versions it is not possible to clear ssl_prefer_server_ciphers
option if it's set in default server for a socket.
Non-daemon mode is currently used by supervisord, daemontools and so on
or during debugging. The NOACCEPT signal is only used for online upgrade
which is not supported when nginx is run under supervisord, etc.,
so this change should not break existant setups.
now cache loader processes either as many files as specified by loader_files
or works no more than time specified by loader_threshold during each iteration.
loader_threshold was previously used to decrease loader_files or
to increase loader_timeout and this might eventually result in
downgrading loader_files to 1 and increasing loader_timeout to large values
causing loading cache for forever.
NetBSD 5.0+ has SO_ACCEPTFILTER support merged from FreeBSD, and having
accept filter check in FreeBSD-specific ngx_freebsd_config.h prevents it
from being used on NetBSD. Therefore move the check into configure (and
do the same for Linux-specific TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT, just to be in line).
Previously only first log level was required to be correct, while error_log
directive in fact accepts list of levels (e.g. one may specify "error_log ...
debug_core debug_http;"). This resulted in (avoidable) wierd behaviour on
missing semicolon after error_log directive, e.g.
error_log /path/to/log info
index index.php;
silently skipped index directive and it's arguments (trying to interpret
them as log levels without checking to be correct).
The following configuration causes nginx to hog cpu due to infinite loop
in ngx_http_upstream_get_peer():
upstream backend {
server 127.0.0.1:8080 down;
server 127.0.0.1:8080 down;
}
server {
...
location / {
proxy_pass http://backend;
}
}
Make sure we don't loop infinitely in ngx_http_upstream_get_peer() but stop
after resetting peer weights once.
Return 0 if we are stuck. This is guaranteed to work as peer 0 always exists,
and eventually ngx_http_upstream_get_round_robin_peer() will do the right
thing falling back to backup servers or returning NGX_BUSY.
Flush flag wasn't set in constructed buffer and this prevented any data
from being actually sent to upstream due to SSL buffering. Make sure
we always set flush in the last buffer we are going to sent.
See here for report:
http://nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-ru/2011-June/041552.html
Previously all available data was used as body, resulting in garbage after
real body e.g. in case of pipelined requests. Make sure to use only as many
bytes as request's Content-Length specifies.
enabled in any server. The previous r1033 does not help when unused zone
becomes used after reconfiguration, so it is backed out.
The initial thought was to make SSL modules independed from SSL implementation
and to keep OpenSSL code dependance as much as in separate files.
list and evaluating total cache size. Reading just directory is enough for
this purpose. Elimination of reading cache files saves at least one disk I/O
operation per file.
Preparation for elimination of reading cache files by cache loader:
removing dependencies on the reading:
*) cache node valid_sec and valid_msec are used only for caching errors;
*) upstream buffer size can be used instead of cache node body_start.
by ngx_http_upstream_create_round_robin_peer(), since the peer lives
only during request so the saved SSL session will never be used again
and just causes memory leak
