If "proxy_pass" is specified with variables, the resulting
hostname is looked up in the list of upstreams defined in
configuration. The search was case-sensitive, as opposed
to the case of "proxy_pass" specified without variables.
If seek position is within the last track chunk
and that chunk is standalone (stsc entry describes only
this chunk) such seek generates stsc seek error. The
problem is that chunk numbers start with 1, not with 0.
Mp4 module does not check movie and track durations when reading
file. Instead it generates errors when track metadata is shorter
than seek position. Now such tracks are skipped and movie duration
check is performed at file read stage.
Mp4 module does not allow seeks after the last key frame. Since
stss atom only contains key frames it's usually shorter than
other track atoms. That leads to stss seek error when seek
position is close to the end of file. The fix outputs empty
stss frame instead of generating error.
Backed out 05a56ebb084a, as it turns out that kernel can return connections
without any delay if syncookies are used. This basically means we can't
assume anything about connections returned with deferred accept set.
To solve original problem the 05a56ebb084a tried to solve, i.e. to don't
wait longer than needed if a connection was accepted after deferred accept
timeout, this patch changes a timeout set with setsockopt(TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT)
to 1 second, unconditionally. This is believed to be enough for speed
improvements, and doesn't imply major changes to timeouts used.
Note that before 2.6.32 connections were dropped after a timeout. Though
it is believed that 1s is still appropriate for kernels before 2.6.32,
as previously tcp_synack_retries controlled the actual timeout and 1s results
in more than 1 minute actual timeout by default.
If there is no SSI context in a given request at a given time,
the $date_local and $date_gmt variables used "%s" format, instead
of "%A, %d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S %Z" documented as the default and used
if there is SSI module context and timefmt wasn't modified using
the "config" SSI command.
While use of these variables outside of the SSI evaluation isn't strictly
valid, previous behaviour is certainly inconsistent, hence the fix.
Modern clang versions seem to no longer produce warnings for
system headers on Linux (at least clang 3.3 works), hence the
change. For older versions --with-cc-opt="-Wno-error" can be
used as a workaround.
Even during execution of a request it is possible that there will be
no session available, notably in case of renegotiation. As a result
logging of $ssl_session_id in some cases caused NULL pointer dereference
after revision 97e3769637a7 (1.5.9). The check added returns an empty
string if there is no session available.
Read event on a client connection might have been disabled during
previous processing, and we at least need to handle events. Calling
ngx_http_upstream_process_upgraded() is a simpliest way to do it.
Notably this change is needed for select, poll and /dev/poll event
methods.
Previous version of this patch was posted here:
http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx/2014-January/041839.html
Previously, it used to contain full session serialized instead of just
a session id, making it almost impossible to use the variable in a safe
way.
Thanks to Ivan Ristić.
It simplifies the code and allows easy reuse the same queue pointer to store
streams in various queues with different requirements. Future implementation
of SPDY/3.1 will take advantage of this quality.
The "length" value better corresponds with the specification and reduces
confusion about whether frame's header is included in "size" or not.
Also this change simplifies some parts of code, since in more cases the
length of frame is more useful than its actual size, especially considering
that the size of frame header is constant.
There is no need in separate "free" pointer and like it is for ngx_chain_t
the "next" pointer can be used. But after this change successfully handled
frame should not be accessed, so the frame handling cycle was improved to
store pointer to the next frame before processing.
Also worth noting that initializing "free" pointer to NULL in the original
code was surplus.
That code was based on misunderstanding of spdy specification about
configuration applicability in the SETTINGS frames. The original
interpretation was that configuration is assigned for the whole
SPDY connection, while it is only for the endpoint.
Moreover, the strange thing is that specification forbids multiple
entries in the SETTINGS frame with the same ID even if flags are
different. As a result, Chrome sends two SETTINGS frames: one with
its own configuration, and another one with configuration stored
for a server (when the FLAG_SETTINGS_PERSIST_VALUE flags were used
by the server).
To simplify implementation we refuse to use the persistent settings
feature and thereby avoid all the complexity related with its proper
support.
The "headers" is not a good term, since it is used not only to count
name/value pairs in the HEADERS block but to count SETTINGS entries too.
Moreover, one name/value pair in HEADERS can contain multiple http headers
with the same name.
No functional changes.
While processing a DATA frame, the link to related stream is stored in spdy
connection object as part of connection state. But this stream can be closed
between receiving parts of the frame.
Previously pool->current wasn't moved back to pool, resulting in blocks
not used for further allocations if pool->current was already moved at the
time of ngx_reset_pool(). Additionally, to preserve logic of moving
pool->current, the p->d.failed counters are now properly cleared. While
here, pool->chain is also cleared.
This change is essentially a nop with current code, but generally improves
things.
During the processing of input some control frames can be added to the queue.
And if there were no writing streams at the moment, these control frames might
be left unsent for a long time (or even forever).
This long delay is especially critical for PING replies since a client can
consider connection as broken and then resend exactly the same request over
a new connection, which is not safe in case of non-idempotent HTTP methods.
There is no reason to allocate it from connection pool that more like just
a bug especially since ngx_http_spdy_settings_frame_handler() already uses
sc->pool to free a chain.
The frame->stream pointer should always be initialized for control frames since
the check against it can be performed in ngx_http_spdy_filter_cleanup().
Parameters of ngx_http_spdy_filter_get_shadow() are changed from size_t to off_t
since the last call of the function may get size and offset from the rest of a
file buffer. This fixes possible data loss rightfully complained by MSVC on 32
bits systems where off_t is 8 bytes long while size_t is only 4 bytes.
The other two type casts are needed just to suppress warnings about possible
data loss also complained by MSVC but false positive in these cases.
False positive warning about the "cl" variable may be uninitialized in
the ngx_http_spdy_filter_get_data_frame() call was suppressed.
It is always initialized either in the "while" cycle or in the following
"if" condition since frame_size cannot be zero.
The "delayed" flag always should be set if there are unsent frames,
but this might not be the case if ngx_http_spdy_body_filter() was
called with NULL chain.
As a result, the "send_timeout" timer could be set on a stream in
ngx_http_writer(). And if the timeout occurred before all the stream
data has been sent, then the request was finalized with the "client
timed out" error.
It was used to prevent destroying of request object when there are unsent
frames in queue for the stream. Since it was incremented for each frame
and is only 8 bits long, so it was not very hard to overflow the counter.
Now the stream->queued counter is checked instead.
This adds support so it's possible to explicitly disable SSL Session
Tickets. In order to have good Forward Secrecy support either the
session ticket key has to be reloaded by using nginx' binary upgrade
process or using an external key file and reloading the configuration.
This directive adds another possibility to have good support by
disabling session tickets altogether.
If session tickets are enabled and the process lives for a long a time,
an attacker can grab the session ticket from the process and use that to
decrypt any traffic that occured during the entire lifetime of the
process.
If a request had an empty request body (with Content-Length: 0), and there
were preread data available (e.g., due to a pipelined request in the buffer),
the "zero size buf in output" alert might be logged while proxying the
request to an upstream.
Similar alerts appeared with client_body_in_file_only if a request had an
empty request body.
Not really a strict check (as X-Accel-Expires might be ignored or
contain invalid value), but quite simple to implement and better
than what we have now.
Fallback to synchronous sendfile() now only done on 3rd EBUSY without
any progress in a row. Not falling back is believed to be better
in case of occasional EBUSY, though protection is still needed to
make sure there will be no infinite loop.
