Repeatedly calling ngx_http_upstream_add_chash_point() to create
the points array in sorted order, is O(n^2) to the total weight.
This can cause nginx startup and reconfigure to be substantially
delayed. For example, when total weight is 1000, startup takes
5s on a modern laptop.
Replace this with a linear insertion followed by QuickSort and
duplicates removal. Startup for total weight of 1000 reduces to 40ms.

Previously, the Auth-SSL-Verify header with the "NONE" value was always passed
to the auth_http script if verification of client certificates is disabled.
The "ssl_verify_client", "ssl_verify_depth", "ssl_client_certificate",
"ssl_trusted_certificate", and "ssl_crl" directives introduced to control
SSL client certificate verification in mail proxy module.
If there is a certificate, detail of the certificate are passed to
the auth_http script configured via Auth-SSL-Verify, Auth-SSL-Subject,
Auth-SSL-Issuer, Auth-SSL-Serial, Auth-SSL-Fingerprint headers. If
the auth_http_pass_client_cert directive is set, client certificate
in PEM format will be passed in the Auth-SSL-Cert header (urlencoded).
If there is no required certificate provided during an SSL handshake
or certificate verification fails then a protocol-specific error is
returned after the SSL handshake and the connection is closed.

Initial size as calculated from the number of elements may be bigger
than max_size. If this happens, make sure to set size to max_size.

Previously, this function checked for connection local address existence
and returned error if it was missing. Now a new address is assigned in this
case making it possible to call this function not only for accepted connections.
It appeared that the NGX_HAVE_AIO_SENDFILE macro was defined regardless of
the "--with-file-aio" configure option and the NGX_HAVE_FILE_AIO macro.
Now they are related.
Additionally, fixed one macro.
This reduces layering violation and simplifies the logic of AIO preread, since
it's now triggered by the send chain function itself without falling back to
the copy filter. The context of AIO operation is now stored per file buffer,
which makes it possible to properly handle cases when multiple buffers come
from different locations, each with its own configuration.
If fastcgi_pass (or any look-alike that doesn't imply a default
port) is specified as an IP literal (as opposed to a hostname),
port absence was not detected at configuration time and could
result in EADDRNOTAVAIL at run time.
Fixed this in such a way that configs like
http {
server {
location / {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1;
}
}
upstream 127.0.0.1 {
server 10.0.0.1:12345;
}
}
still work. That is, port absence check is delayed until after
we make sure there's no explicit upstream with such a name.
The mtx->wait counter was not decremented if we were able to obtain the lock
right after incrementing it. This resulted in unneeded sem_post() calls,
eventually leading to EOVERFLOW errors being logged, "sem_post() failed
while wake shmtx (75: Value too large for defined data type)".
To close the race, mtx->wait is now decremented if we obtain the lock right
after incrementing it in ngx_shmtx_lock(). The result can become -1 if a
concurrent ngx_shmtx_unlock() decrements mtx->wait before the added code does.
However, that only leads to one extra iteration in the next call of
ngx_shmtx_lock().
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.
