BoringSSL changed SSL_set_tlsext_host_name() to be a real function
with a (const char *) argument, so it now triggers a warning due to
conversion from (u_char *). Added an explicit cast to silence the
warning.

This is needed to allow TLS client certificate auth to work. With
ssl_verify_client configured, the auth daemon can choose to allow the
connection to proceed based on the certificate data.
This has been tested with Thunderbird for IMAP only. I've not yet found a
client that will do client certificate auth for POP3 or SMTP, and the method is
not really documented anywhere that I can find. That said, its simple enough
that the way I've done is probably right.
When headers are set at the "http" level and not redefined in
a server block, we now preserve conf->headers into the "http"
section configuration to inherit it to all servers.
The same applies to conf->headers_cache, though it may not be effective
if no servers use cache at the "server" level as conf->headers_cache
is only initialized if cache is enabled on a given level.
Similar changes made in fastcgi/scgi/uwsgi to preserve conf->params
and conf->params_cache.
When headers to hide are set at the "http" level and not redefined in
a server block, we now preserve compiled headers hash into the "http"
section configuration to inherit this hash to all servers.
Dependency on cache settings existed prior to 2728c4e4a9ae (0.8.44)
as Set-Cookie header was automatically hidden from responses when
using cache. This is no longer the case, and hide_headers_hash can
be safely inherited regardless of cache settings.
With this change it is now possible to load modules compiled without
the "--with-http_ssl_module" configure option into nginx binary compiled
with it, and vice versa (if a module doesn't use ssl-specific functions),
assuming both use the "--with-compat" option.
With this change it is now possible to load modules compiled without
the "--with-file-aio" configure option into nginx binary compiled with it,
and vice versa, assuming both use the "--with-compat" option.
With this change it is now possible to load modules compiled without
the "--with-threads" configure option into nginx binary compiled with it,
and vice versa (if a module does not use thread-specific functions),
assuming both use the "--with-compat" option.
It is used at least by SOAP (M-POST method, defined by RFC 2774) and
by WebDAV versioning (VERSION-CONTROL and BASELINE-CONTROL methods,
defined by RFC 3253).
Previously, user access bits were always set to "rw" unconditionally,
even with "user:r" explicitly specified. With this change we only add
default user access bits (0600) if they weren't set explicitly.
Duplicate processing was possible if the address set by realip was
listed in set_realip_from, and there was an internal redirect so module
context was cleared. This resulted in exactly the same address being set,
so this wasn't a problem before the $realip_remote_addr variable was
introduced, though now results in incorrect $realip_remote_addr being
picked.
Fix is to use ngx_http_realip_get_module_ctx() to look up module context
even if it was cleared. Additionally, the order of checks was switched to
check the configuration first as it looks more effective.
The new parameters "manager_files", "manager_sleep"
and "manager_threshold" were added to proxy_cache_path
and friends.
Note that ngx_path_manager_pt was changed to return ngx_msec_t
instead of time_t (API change).
Explicit checks for OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER replaced with checks
for X509_CHECK_FLAG_ALWAYS_CHECK_SUBJECT, thus allowing X509_check_host()
to be used with other libraries. In particular, X509_check_host() was
introduced in LibreSSL 2.5.0.
IPv6 now compiled-in automatically if support is found. If there is a need
to disable it for some reason, --with-cc-opt="-DNGX_HAVE_INET6=0" can be used
for this.
When the last_buf flag is cleared for add_after_body to append more data from a
subrequest, other filters may still have buffered data, which should be flushed
at this point. For example, the sub_filter may have a partial match buffered,
which will only be flushed after the subrequest is done, ending up with
interleaved data in output.
Setting last_in_chain instead of last_buf flushes the data and fixes the order
of output buffers.
The last_buf flag should only be set in the last buffer of the main request.
Otherwise, several last_buf flags can appear in output. This can, for example,
break the chunked filter, which will include several final chunks in output.
The IPV6_V6ONLY macro is now checked only while parsing appropriate flag
and when using the macro.
The ipv6only field in listen structures is always initialized to 1,
even if not supported on a given platform. This is expected to prevent
a module compiled without IPV6_V6ONLY from accidentally creating dual
sockets if loaded into main binary with proper IPV6_V6ONLY support.
It is to be used as a bitmask with various bits set/reset when appropriate.
Any bit set means that the peer should not be used, that is, exactly what
current checks do, no additional changes required.
