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.

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.
This includes the ssl_stapling_responder directive (defaults to OCSP
responder set in certificate's AIA extension).
OCSP response for a given certificate is requested once we get at least
one connection with certificate_status extension in ClientHello, and
certificate status won't be sent in the connection in question. This due
to limitations in the OpenSSL API (certificate status callback is blocking).
Note: SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() was reimplemented as it doesn't
allow to access the certificate loaded via SSL_CTX.
The "include" directive should be able to include multiple files if
given a filename mask. Fixed this to work for "include" directives
inside the "map" or "types" blocks. The "include" directive inside
the "geo" block is still not fixed.
The preallocation size was calculated incorrectly and was always 8 due to
sizeof(ngx_radix_tree_t) accidentally used instead of sizeof(ngx_radix_node_t).
If ngx_time_sigsafe_update() updated only ngx_cached_err_log_time, and
then clock was adjusted backwards, the cached_time[slot].sec might
accidentally match current seconds on next ngx_time_update() call,
resulting in various cached times not being updated.
Fix is to clear the cached_time[slot].sec to explicitly mark cached times
are stale and need updating.
There is a general consensus that this change results in better
consistency between different operating systems and differently
tuned operating systems.
Note: this changes the width and meaning of the ipv6only field
of the ngx_listening_t structure. 3rd party modules that create
their own listening sockets might need fixing.
With previous code wildcard names were added to hash even if conflict
was detected. This resulted in identical names in hash and segfault
later in ngx_hash_wildcard_init().
If sending a DNS request fails with an error (e.g., when mistakenly trying
to send it to a local IP broadcast), such a request is not deleted if there
are clients waiting on it. However, it was still erroneously removed from
the queue. Later ngx_resolver_cleanup_tree() attempted to remove it from
the queue again that resulted in a NULL pointer dereference.
If we already had CNAME in resolver node (i.e. rn->cnlen and rn->u.cname
set), and got additional response with A record, it resulted in rn->cnlen
set and rn->u.cname overwritten by rn->u.addr (or rn->u.addrs), causing
segmentation fault later in ngx_resolver_free_node() on an attempt to free
overwritten rn->u.cname. The opposite (i.e. CNAME got after A) might cause
similar problems as well.
If name passed for resolution was { 0, NULL } (e.g. as a result
of name server returning CNAME pointing to ".") pointer wrapped
to (void *) -1 resulting in segmentation fault on an attempt to
dereference it.

Integer overflow is undefined behaviour in C and this indeed caused
problems on Solaris/SPARC (at least in some cases). Fix is to
subtract unsigned integers instead, and then cast result to a signed
one, which is implementation-defined behaviour and used to work.
Strictly speaking, we should compare (unsigned) result with the maximum
value of the corresponding signed integer type instead, this will be
defined behaviour. This will require much more changes though, and
considered to be overkill for now.
Previous code incorrectly assumed that nodes with identical keys are linked
together. This might not be true after tree rebalance.
Patch by Lanshun Zhou.
The cycle->new_log.file may not be set before config parsing finished if
there are no error_log directive defined at global level. Fix is to
copy it after config parsing.
Patch by Roman Arutyunyan.
the last path component if "if_not_owner" parameter is used.
To prevent race condition we have to open a file before checking its owner and
there's no way to change access flags for already opened file descriptor, so
we disable symlinks for the last path component at all if flags allow creating
or truncating the file.
Solaris has AT_FDCWD defined to unsigned value, and comparison of a file
descriptor with it causes warnings in modern versions of gcc. Explicitly
cast AT_FDCWD to ngx_fd_t to resolve these warnings.
To completely disable symlinks (disable_symlinks on)
we use openat(O_NOFOLLOW) for each path component
to avoid races.
To allow symlinks with the same owner (disable_symlinks if_not_owner),
use openat() (followed by fstat()) and fstatat(AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW),
and then compare uids between fstat() and fstatat().
As there is a race between openat() and fstatat() we don't
know if openat() in fact opened symlink or not. Therefore,
we have to compare uids even if fstatat() reports the opened
component isn't a symlink (as we don't know whether it was
symlink during openat() or not).
Default value is off, i.e. symlinks are allowed.
Nuke NGX_PARSE_LARGE_TIME, it's not used since 0.6.30. The only error
ngx_parse_time() can currently return is NGX_ERROR, check it explicitly
and make sure to cast it to appropriate type (either time_t or ngx_msec_t)
to avoid signedness warnings on platforms with unsigned time_t (notably QNX).
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.
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 {}
}
It is currently used from master process on abnormal worker termination to
unlock accept mutex (unlocking of accept mutex was broken in 1.0.2). It is
expected to be used in the future to unlock other mutexes as well.
Shared mutex code was rewritten to make this possible in a safe way, i.e.
with a check if lock was actually held by the exited process. We again use
pid to lock mutex, and use separate atomic variable for a count of processes
waiting in sem_wait().
Previously it used a hardcoded value of 300 seconds. Also added the
"valid=" parameter to the "resolver" directive that can be used to
override the cache validity time.
Patch by Kirill A. Korinskiy with minor changes.
For files with '?' in their names autoindex generated links with '?' not
escaped. This resulted in effectively truncated links as '?' indicates
query string start.
This is an updated version of the patch originally posted at [1]. It
introduces generic NGX_ESCAPE_URI_COMPONENT which escapes everything but
unreserved characters as per RFC 3986. This approach also renders unneeded
special colon processing (as colon is percent-encoded now), it's dropped
accordingly.

The ngx_chain_update_chains() needs pool to free chain links used for buffers
with non-matching tags. Providing one helps to reduce memory consumption
for long-lived requests.
If file inode was not changed, cached file information was not updated
on retest. As a result stale information might be cached forever if file
attributes was changed and/or file was extended.
This fix also makes obsolete r4077 change of is_directio flag handling,
since this flag is updated together with other file information.
On file retest open_file_cache lost is_directio if file wasn't changed.
This caused unaligned operations under Linux to fail with EINVAL.
It wasn't noticeable with AIO though, as errors wasn't properly logged.
NetBSD 5.0+ has SO_ACCEPTFILTER support merged from FreeBSD, and having
accept filter check in FreeBSD-specific ngx_freebsd_config.h prevents it
from being used on NetBSD. Therefore move the check into configure (and
do the same for Linux-specific TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT, just to be in line).
Previously only first log level was required to be correct, while error_log
directive in fact accepts list of levels (e.g. one may specify "error_log ...
debug_core debug_http;"). This resulted in (avoidable) wierd behaviour on
missing semicolon after error_log directive, e.g.
error_log /path/to/log info
index index.php;
silently skipped index directive and it's arguments (trying to interpret
them as log levels without checking to be correct).
enabled in any server. The previous r1033 does not help when unused zone
becomes used after reconfiguration, so it is backed out.
The initial thought was to make SSL modules independed from SSL implementation
and to keep OpenSSL code dependance as much as in separate files.
then .sub.domain.com was matched by .domain.com: wildcard names hash
was built incorrectly due to sorting order issue of "." vs "-".
They were sorted as
com.domain com.domain-some com.domain.sub
while they should be sorted as
com.domain com.domain.sub com.domain-some
for correct hash building
