Recent Linux versions started to return EOPNOTSUPP to getsockopt() calls
on unix sockets, resulting in log pollution on binary upgrade. Such errors
are silently ignored now.
Several warnings silenced, notably (ngx_socket_t) -1 is now checked
on socket operations instead of -1, as ngx_socket_t is unsigned on win32
and gcc complains on comparison.
With this patch, it's now possible to compile nginx using mingw gcc,
with options we normally compile on win32.
The call to ngx_sock_ntop() in ngx_connection_local_sockaddr() might be
performed with the uninitialized "len" variable. The fix is to initialize
variable to the size of corresponding socket address type.
The issue was introduced in commit 05ba5bce31e0.
On Linux, sockaddr length is required to process unix socket addresses properly
due to unnamed sockets (which don't have sun_path set at all) and abstract
namespace sockets.
On Win32 platforms 0 is used to indicate errors in file operations, so
comparing against -1 is not portable.
This was not much of an issue in patched code, since only ngx_fd_info() test
is actually reachable on Win32 and in worst case it might result in bogus
error log entry.
Patch by Piotr Sikora.
And corresponding variable $connections_waiting was added.
Previously, waiting connections were counted as the difference between
active connections and the sum of reading and writing connections.
That made it impossible to count more than one request in one connection
as reading or writing (as is the case for SPDY).
Also, we no longer count connections in handshake state as waiting.
The c->single_connection was intended to be used as lock mechanism
to serialize modifications of request object from several threads
working with client and upstream connections. The flag is redundant
since threads in nginx have never been used that way.
There is a general consensus that this change results in better
consistency between different operating systems and differently
tuned operating systems.
Note: this changes the width and meaning of the ipv6only field
of the ngx_listening_t structure. 3rd party modules that create
their own listening sockets might need fixing.
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).
to ngx_configure_listening_sockets(), otherwise listen socket logs have no file
after first reload and this caused segfault if debug_connection was used;
the bug has been introduced in r2786
