Keeping the ready flag in this case might results in missing notification of
broken connection until nginx tried to use it again.
While there, stale comment about stale event was removed since this function
is also can be called directly.
The code that calls sendfile() was cut into a separate function.
This simplifies EINTR processing, yet is needed for the following
changes that add threads support.
In case of filter finalization, r->upstream might be changed during
the ngx_event_pipe() call. Added an argument to preserve it while
calling the ngx_http_upstream_process_request() function.
A request may be already finalized when ngx_http_upstream_finalize_request()
is called, due to filter finalization: after filter finalization upstream
can be finalized via ngx_http_upstream_cleanup(), either from
ngx_http_terminate_request(), or because a new request was initiated
to an upstream. Then the upstream code will see an error returned from
the filter chain and will call the ngx_http_upstream_finalize_request()
function again.
To prevent corruption of various upstream data in this situation, make sure
to do nothing but merely call ngx_http_finalize_request().

Previously, connection hung after calling ngx_http_ssl_handshake() with
rev->ready set and no bytes in socket to read. It's possible in at least the
following cases:
- when processing a connection with expired TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT on Linux
- after parsing PROXY protocol header if it arrived in a separate TCP packet

When replacing a stale cache entry, its last_modified and etag could be
inherited from the old entry if the response code is not 200 or 206. Moreover,
etag could be inherited with any response code if it's missing in the new
response. As a result, the cache entry is left with invalid last_modified or
etag which could lead to broken revalidation.
For example, when a file is deleted from backend, its last_modified is copied to
the new 404 cache entry and is used later for revalidation. Once the old file
appears again with its original timestamp, revalidation succeeds and the cached
404 response is sent to client instead of the file.
The problem appeared with etags in 44b9ab7752e3 (1.7.3) and affected
last_modified in 1573fc7875fa (1.7.9).
Repeatedly calling ngx_http_upstream_add_chash_point() to create
the points array in sorted order, is O(n^2) to the total weight.
This can cause nginx startup and reconfigure to be substantially
delayed. For example, when total weight is 1000, startup takes
5s on a modern laptop.
Replace this with a linear insertion followed by QuickSort and
duplicates removal. Startup for total weight of 1000 reduces to 40ms.

Previously, the Auth-SSL-Verify header with the "NONE" value was always passed
to the auth_http script if verification of client certificates is disabled.
The "ssl_verify_client", "ssl_verify_depth", "ssl_client_certificate",
"ssl_trusted_certificate", and "ssl_crl" directives introduced to control
SSL client certificate verification in mail proxy module.
If there is a certificate, detail of the certificate are passed to
the auth_http script configured via Auth-SSL-Verify, Auth-SSL-Subject,
Auth-SSL-Issuer, Auth-SSL-Serial, Auth-SSL-Fingerprint headers. If
the auth_http_pass_client_cert directive is set, client certificate
in PEM format will be passed in the Auth-SSL-Cert header (urlencoded).
If there is no required certificate provided during an SSL handshake
or certificate verification fails then a protocol-specific error is
returned after the SSL handshake and the connection is closed.

Initial size as calculated from the number of elements may be bigger
than max_size. If this happens, make sure to set size to max_size.

Previously, this function checked for connection local address existence
and returned error if it was missing. Now a new address is assigned in this
case making it possible to call this function not only for accepted connections.
It appeared that the NGX_HAVE_AIO_SENDFILE macro was defined regardless of
the "--with-file-aio" configure option and the NGX_HAVE_FILE_AIO macro.
Now they are related.
Additionally, fixed one macro.
This reduces layering violation and simplifies the logic of AIO preread, since
it's now triggered by the send chain function itself without falling back to
the copy filter. The context of AIO operation is now stored per file buffer,
which makes it possible to properly handle cases when multiple buffers come
from different locations, each with its own configuration.
If fastcgi_pass (or any look-alike that doesn't imply a default
port) is specified as an IP literal (as opposed to a hostname),
port absence was not detected at configuration time and could
result in EADDRNOTAVAIL at run time.
Fixed this in such a way that configs like
http {
server {
location / {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1;
}
}
upstream 127.0.0.1 {
server 10.0.0.1:12345;
}
}
still work. That is, port absence check is delayed until after
we make sure there's no explicit upstream with such a name.
The mtx->wait counter was not decremented if we were able to obtain the lock
right after incrementing it. This resulted in unneeded sem_post() calls,
eventually leading to EOVERFLOW errors being logged, "sem_post() failed
while wake shmtx (75: Value too large for defined data type)".
To close the race, mtx->wait is now decremented if we obtain the lock right
after incrementing it in ngx_shmtx_lock(). The result can become -1 if a
concurrent ngx_shmtx_unlock() decrements mtx->wait before the added code does.
However, that only leads to one extra iteration in the next call of
ngx_shmtx_lock().
The use_temp_path http cache feature is now implemented using a separate temp
hierarchy in cache directory. Prefix-based temp files are no longer needed.
If use_temp_path is set to off, a subdirectory "temp" is created in the cache
directory. It's used instead of proxy_temp_path and friends for caching
upstream response.
The trailer.count variable was not initialized if there was a header,
resulting in "sendfile() failed (22: Invalid argument)" alerts on OS X
if the "sendfile" directive was used. The bug was introduced
in 8e903522c17a (1.7.8).
