If header filter postponed processing of a header by returning NGX_AGAIN
and not moved u->buffer->pos, previous check incorrectly assumed there
is additional space and did another recv() with zero-size buffer. This
resulted in "upstream prematurely closed connection" error instead
of correct "upstream sent too big header" one.

the way.
It was unintentionally changed in r4272, so that it could only limit the first
location where the processing of the request has reached PREACCESS phase.
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.
Example configuration to reproduce:
server {
proxy_redirect off;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8000;
proxy_redirect http://localhost:8000/ /;
location ~ \.php$ {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8000;
# proxy_redirect must be inherited from the level above,
# but instead it was switched off here
}
}
}
Previously if ngx_add_event() failed a connection was freed two times (once
in the ngx_event_connect_peer(), and again by a caller) as pc->connection was
left set. Fix is to always use ngx_close_connection() to close connection
properly and set pc->connection to NULL on errors.

Doing a cleanup before every lookup seems to be too aggressive. It can lead to
premature removal of the nodes still usable, which increases the amount of work
under a mutex lock and therefore decreases performance.
In order to improve cleanup behavior, cleanup function call has been moved right
before the allocation of a new node.
"limit_req_zone" directive; minimum size of zone is increased.
Previously an unsigned variable was used to keep the return value of
ngx_parse_size() function, which led to an incorrect zone size if NGX_ERROR
was returned.
The new code has been taken from the "limit_conn_zone" directive.
The aio_return() must be called regardless of the error returned by
aio_error(). Not calling it resulted in various problems up to segmentation
faults (as AIO events are level-triggered and were reported again and again).
Additionally, in "aio sendfile" case r->blocked was incremented in case of
error returned from ngx_file_aio_read(), thus causing request hangs.
It's already called by OPENSSL_config(). Calling it again causes some
openssl engines (notably GOST) to corrupt memory, as they don't expect
to be created more than once.
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 {}
}
Second argument (cpusetsize) is size in bytes, not in bits. Previously
used constant 32 resulted in reading of uninitialized memory and caused
EINVAL to be returned on some Linux kernels.
Support for TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 protocols was introduced in OpenSSL 1.0.1
(-beta1 was recently released). This change makes it possible to disable
these protocols and/or enable them without other protocols.
The problem was localized in ngx_http_proxy_rewrite_redirect_regex() handler
function which did not take into account prefix when overwriting header value.
New directives: proxy_cache_lock on/off, proxy_cache_lock_timeout. With
proxy_cache_lock set to on, only one request will be allowed to go to
upstream for a particular cache item. Others will wait for a response
to appear in cache (or cache lock released) up to proxy_cache_lock_timeout.
Waiting requests will recheck if they have cached response ready (or are
allowed to run) every 500ms.
Note: we intentionally don't intercept NGX_DECLINED possibly returned by
ngx_http_file_cache_read(). This needs more work (possibly safe, but needs
further investigation). Anyway, it's exceptional situation.
Note: probably there should be a way to disable caching of responses
if there is already one request fetching resource to cache (without waiting
at all). Two possible ways include another cache lock option ("no_cache")
or using proxy_no_cache with some supplied variable.
Note: probably there should be a way to lock updating requests as well. For
now "proxy_cache_use_stale updating" is available.
