This is done by passing AI_ADDRCONFIG to getaddrinfo().
On Linux, setting net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 to 1 will now be
respected.
On FreeBSD, AI_ADDRCONFIG filtering is currently implemented by
attempting to create a datagram socket for the corresponding family,
which succeeds even if the system doesn't in fact have any addresses
of that family configured. That is, if the system with IPv6 support
in the kernel doesn't have IPv6 addresses configured, AI_ADDRCONFIG
will filter out IPv6 only inside a jail without IPv6 addresses or
with IPv6 disabled.
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.
When several "error_log" directives are specified in the same configuration
block, logs are written to all files with a matching log level.
All logs are stored in the singly-linked list that is sorted by log level in
the descending order.
Specific debug levels (NGX_LOG_DEBUG_HTTP,EVENT, etc.) are not supported
if several "error_log" directives are specified. In this case all logs
will use debug level that has largest absolute value.
The cycle->new_log->log_level should only be initialized by ngx_init_cycle()
if no error logs were found in the configuration. This move allows to get rid
of extra initialization in ngx_error_log().
If "stderr" was specified in one of the "error_log" directives,
stderr is not redirected to the first error_log on startup,
configuration reload, and reopening log files.
On win32 stderr was not redirected into a file specified by "error_log"
while reopening files. Fix is to use platform-independent functions to
work with stderr, as already used by ngx_init_cycle() and main() since
rev. d8316f307b6a.
It is now a syntax error if tokens passed to a custom configuration
handler are terminated by "{".
The following incorrect configuration is now properly rejected:
map $v $v2 {
a b {
c d {
e f {
}
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.
Note: use of {SHA} passwords is discouraged as {SHA} password scheme is
vulnerable to attacks using rainbow tables. Use of {SSHA}, $apr1$ or
crypt() algorithms as supported by OS is recommended instead.
The {SHA} password scheme support is added to avoid the need of changing
the scheme recorded in password files from {SHA} to {SSHA} because such
a change hides security problem with {SHA} passwords.
Patch by Louis Opter, with minor changes.
Upstreams created by "proxy_pass" with IP address and no port were
broken in 1.3.10, by not initializing port in u->sockaddr.
API change: ngx_parse_url() was modified to always initialize port
(in u->sockaddr and in u->port), even for the u->no_resolve case;
ngx_http_upstream() and ngx_http_upstream_add() were adopted.
Uninitialized pointer may result in arbitrary segfaults if access_log is used
without buffer and without variables in file path.
Patch by Tatsuhiko Kubo (ticket #268).
The code refactored in a way to call custom handler that can do appropriate
cleanup work (if any), like flushing buffers, finishing compress streams,
finalizing connections to log daemon, etc..
This includes "debug_connection", upstreams, "proxy_pass", etc.
(ticket #92)
To preserve compatibility, "listen" specified with a domain name
selects the first IPv4 address, if available. If not available,
the first IPv6 address will be used (ticket #186).
The URL parsing code is not expected to initialize port from default port
when in "no_resolve" mode. This got broken in r4671 for the case of IPv6
literals.
The ngx_write_fd() and ngx_read_fd() functions return -1 in case of error,
so the incorrect comparison with NGX_FILE_ERROR (which is 0 on windows
platforms) might result in inaccurate error message in the error log.
Also the ngx_errno global variable is being set only if the returned value
is -1.
nginx doesn't allow the same shared memory zone to be used for different
purposes, but failed to check this on reconfiguration. If a shared memory
zone was used for another purpose in the new configuration, nginx attempted
to reuse it and crashed.
