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).
Some parts of code related to handling variants of a resource moved into
a separate function that is called earlier. This allows to use cache file
name as a prefix for temporary file in the following patch.
The original check for NGX_AGAIN was surplus, since the function returns
only NGX_OK or NGX_ERROR. Now it looks similar to other places.
No functional changes.
The configuration handling code has changed to look similar to the proxy_store
directive and friends. This simplifies adding variable support in the following
patch.
No functional changes.
Currently, storing and caching mechanisms cannot work together, and a
configuration error is thrown when the proxy_store and proxy_cache
directives (as well as their friends) are configured on the same level.
But configurations like in the example below were allowed and could result
in critical errors in the error log:
proxy_store on;
location / {
proxy_cache one;
}
Only proxy_store worked in this case.
For more predictable and errorless behavior these directives now prevent
each other from being inherited from the previous level.
This changes internal API related to handling of the "store"
flag in ngx_http_upstream_conf_t. Previously, a non-null value
of "store_lengths" was enough to enable store functionality with
custom path. Now, the "store" flag is also required to be set.
No functional changes.
The proxy_store, fastcgi_store, scgi_store and uwsgi_store were inherited
incorrectly if a directive with variables was defined, and then redefined
to the "on" value, i.e. in configurations like:
proxy_store /data/www$upstream_http_x_store;
location / {
proxy_store on;
}
In the following configuration request was sent to a backend without
URI changed to '/' due to if:
location /proxy-pass-uri {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080/;
set $true 1;
if ($true) {
# nothing
}
}
Fix is to inherit conf->location from the location where proxy_pass was
configured, much like it's done with conf->vars.
The proxy_pass directive and other handlers are not expected to be inherited
into nested locations, but there is a special code to inherit upstream
handlers into limit_except blocks, as well as a configuration into if{}
blocks. This caused incorrect behaviour in configurations with nested
locations and limit_except blocks, like this:
location / {
proxy_pass http://u;
location /inner/ {
# no proxy_pass here
limit_except GET {
# nothing
}
}
}
In such a configuration the limit_except block inside "location /inner/"
unexpectedly used proxy_pass defined in "location /", while it shouldn't.
Fix is to avoid inheritance of conf->upstream.upstream (and
conf->proxy_lengths) into locations which don't have noname flag.
Instead of independant inheritance of conf->upstream.upstream (proxy_pass
without variables) and conf->proxy_lengths (proxy_pass with variables)
we now test them both and inherit only if neither is set. Additionally,
SSL context is also inherited only in this case now.
Based on the patch by Alexey Radkov.
RFC7232 says:
The 304 (Not Modified) status code indicates that a conditional GET
or HEAD request has been received and would have resulted in a 200
(OK) response if it were not for the fact that the condition
evaluated to false.
which means that there is no reason to send requests with "If-None-Match"
and/or "If-Modified-Since" headers for responses cached with other status
codes.
Also, sending conditional requests for responses cached with other status
codes could result in a strange behavior, e.g. upstream server returning
304 Not Modified for cached 404 Not Found responses, etc.

In case of a cache lock timeout and in the aio handler we now call
r->write_event_handler() instead of a connection write handler,
to make sure to run appropriate subrequest. Previous code failed to run
inactive subrequests and hence resulted in suboptimal behaviour, see
report by Yichun Zhang:
http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-devel/2013-October/004435.html
(Infinite hang claimed in the report seems impossible without 3rd party
modules, as subrequests will be eventually woken up by the postpone filter.)
To ensure proper logging make sure to set current_request in all event
handlers, including resolve, ssl handshake, cache lock wait timer and
aio read handlers. A macro ngx_http_set_log_request() introduced to
simplify this.
The alert was introduced in 03ff14058272 (1.5.4), and was triggered on each
post_action invocation.
There is no real need to call header filters in case of post_action,
so return NGX_OK from ngx_http_send_header() if r->post_action is set.
This helps to avoid delays in sending the last chunk of data because
of bad interaction between Nagle's algorithm on nginx side and
delayed ACK on the client side.
Delays could also be caused by TCP_CORK/TCP_NOPUSH if SPDY was
working without SSL and sendfile() was used.
In 954867a2f0a6, we switched to using resolver node as the timer event data.
This broke debug event logging.
Replaced now unused ngx_resolver_ctx_t.ident with ngx_resolver_node_t.ident
so that ngx_event_ident() extracts something sensible when accessing
ngx_resolver_node_t as ngx_connection_t.
In 954867a2f0a6, we switched to using resolver node as the
timer event data, so make sure we do not free resolver node
memory until the corresponding timer is deleted.
