One intentional side effect of this change is that key is allowed only
in the first position. Previously, it was possible to specify the key
variable at any position, but that was never documented, and is contrary
to nginx configuration practice for positional parameters.
If a syslog daemon is restarted and the unix socket is used, further logging
might stop to work. In case of send error, socket is closed, forcing
a reconnection at the next logging attempt.
The ngx_cycle->log is used when sending the message. This allows to log syslog
send errors in another log.
Logging to syslog after its cleanup handler has been executed was prohibited.
Previously, this was possible from ngx_destroy_pool(), which resulted in error
messages caused by attempts to write into the closed socket.
The "processing" flag is renamed to "busy" to better match its semantics.
Previously, a file buffer start position was reset to the file start.
Now it's reset to the previous file buffer end. This fixes
reinitialization of requests having multiple successive parts of a
single file. Such requests are generated by fastcgi module.
This prevents inappropriate session reuse in unrelated server{}
blocks, while preserving ability to restore sessions on other servers
when using TLS Session Tickets.
Additionally, session context is now set even if there is no session cache
configured. This is needed as it's also used for TLS Session Tickets.

The new directives {proxy,fastcgi,scgi,uwsgi,memcached}_next_upstream_tries
and {proxy,fastcgi,scgi,uwsgi,memcached}_next_upstream_timeout limit
the number of upstreams tried and the maximum time spent for these tries
when searching for a valid upstream.
When memory allocation failed in ngx_http_upstream_cache(), the connection
would be terminated directly in ngx_http_upstream_init_request().
Return a INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR response instead.
The ngx_init_setproctitle() function, as used on systems without
setproctitle(3), may fail due to memory allocation errors, and
therefore its return code needs to be checked.
Reported by Markus Linnala.
The etag->hash must be set to 0 to avoid an empty ETag header being
returned with the 500 Internal Server Error page after the memory
allocation failure.

Some of the OpenSSL forks (read: BoringSSL) started removing unused,
no longer necessary and/or not really working bug workarounds along
with the SSL options and defines for them.
Instead of fixing nginx build after each removal, be proactive
and guard use of all SSL options for bug workarounds.

The messages "ngx_slab_alloc() failed: no memory in cache keys zone"
from the file cache slab allocator are suppressed since the allocation
is likely to succeed after the forced expiration of cache nodes.
The second allocation failure is reported.
In theory, this can provide a bit better distribution of latencies.
Also it simplifies the code, since ngx_queue_t is now used instead
of custom implementation.
Previously, a configuration like
location / {
ssi on;
ssi_types *;
set $http_foo "bar";
return 200 '<!--#echo var="http_foo" -->\n';
}
resulted in NULL pointer dereference in ngx_http_get_variable() as
the variable was explicitly added to the variables hash, but its
get_handler wasn't properly set in the hash. Fix is to make sure
that get_handler is properly set by ngx_http_variables_init_vars().
The SPDY module doesn't expect timers can be set on stream events for reasons
other than delaying output. But ngx_http_writer() could add timer on write
event if the delayed flag wasn't set and nginx is waiting for AIO completion.
That could cause delays in sending response over SPDY when file AIO was used.
