The current style in variable handlers returning NGX_OK is to either set
v->not_found to 1, or to initialize the entire ngx_http_variable_value_t
structure.
In theory, always setting v->valid = 1 for NGX_OK would be useful, which
would mean that the value was computed and is thus valid, including the
special case of v->not_found = 1. But currently that's not the case and
causes the (v->valid || v->not_found) check to access an uninitialized
v->valid value, which is safe only because its value doesn't matter when
v->not_found is set.
Some combinations of options might cause the builds with the
--with-stream option to break due to invalid value of the
STREAM_INCS make variable, e.g.
auto/configure \
--with-stream \
--with-http_perl_module=dynamic \
--without-http_memcached_module \
--without-http_empty_gif_module \
--without-http_browser_module \
--without-http_upstream_hash_module \
--without-http_upstream_ip_hash_module \
--without-http_upstream_least_conn_module \
--without-http_upstream_keepalive_module \
--without-http_upstream_zone_module \
Explicit initialization of ngx_module_libs and ngx_module_link
matches what we already do when processing mail modules, and
is also required after the next change.
The current version of HTTP/1.1 standard allows relative references in
redirects (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-7.1.2).
Allow this form for redirects generated by nginx by introducing the new
directive absolute_redirect.
By default, "map" creates cacheable variables [1]. With this
parameter it creates a non-cacheable variable.
An original idea was to deduce the cacheability of the "map"
variable by checking the cacheability of variables specified
in source and resulting values, but it turned to be too hard.
For example, a cacheable variable can be overridden with the
"set" directive or with the SSI "set" command. Also, keeping
"map" variables cacheable by default is good for performance
reasons. This required adding a new parameter.
[1] Before db699978a33f (1.11.0), the cacheability of the
"map" variable could vary depending on the cacheability of
variables specified in resulting values (ticket #1090).
This is believed to be a bug rather than a feature.
Removed code that would cause an endless loop, and removed condition
check that is always false. The first page in the slot list is
guaranteed to satisfy an allocation.
The only thing that default_port comparison did in the current
code is prevented implicit upstreams to the same address/port
from being aliased for http and https, e.g.:
proxy_pass http://10.0.0.1:12345;
proxy_pass https://10.0.0.1:12345;
This is inconsistent because it doesn't work for a similar case
with uswgi_pass:
uwsgi_pass uwsgi://10.0.0.1:12345;
uwsgi_pass suwsgi://10.0.0.1:12345;
or with an explicit upstream:
upstream u {
server 10.0.0.1:12345;
}
proxy_pass http://u;
proxy_pass https://u;
Before c9059bd5445b, default_port comparison was needed to
differentiate implicit upstreams in
proxy_pass http://example.com;
and
proxy_pass https://example.com;
as u->port was not set.
When an upstream{} block follows a proxy_pass reference to it,
such an upstream inherited port and default_port settings from
proxy_pass. This was different from when they came in another
order (see ticket #1059). Explicit upstreams should not have
port and default_port in any case.
This fixes the following case:
server { location / { proxy_pass http://u; } ... }
upstream u { server 127.0.0.1; }
server { location / { proxy_pass https://u; } ... }
but not the following:
server { location / { proxy_pass http://u; } ... }
server { location / { proxy_pass https://u; } ... }
upstream u { server 127.0.0.1; }
If proxy_pass (and friends) with variables evaluates an upstream
specified with literal address, nginx always created a per-request
upstream.
Now, if there's a matching upstream specified in the configuration
(either implicit or explicit), it will be used instead.
This fixes inconsistency in what is stored in the "host" field.
Normally it would contain the "host" part of the parsed URL
(e.g., proxy_pass with variables), but for the case of an
implicit upstream specified with literal address it contained
the text representation of the socket address (that is, host
including port for IP).
Now the "host" field always contains the "host" part of the URL,
while the text representation of the socket address is stored
in the newly added "name" field.
The ngx_http_upstream_create_round_robin_peer() function was
modified accordingly in a way to be compatible with the code
that does not know about the new "name" field.
The "stream" code was similarly modified except for not adding
compatibility in ngx_stream_upstream_create_round_robin_peer().
This change is also a prerequisite for the next change.
If the range includes two or more /16 networks and does
not start at the /16 boundary, the last subrange was not
removed (see 91cff7f97a50 for details).
The IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT option is set on upstream sockets
if proxy_bind does not specify a port. The SO_REUSEADDR option
is set on UDP upstream sockets if proxy_bind specifies a port.
Due to checking of the wrong port, IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT was
never set, and SO_REUSEPORT was always set.
The change in b91bcba29351 was not enough to fix random() seeding.
On Windows, the srand() seeds the PRNG only in the current thread,
and worse, is not inherited from the calling thread. Due to this,
worker threads were not properly seeded.
Reported by Marc Bevand.
The 6f8254ae61b8 change inadvertently fixed the duplicate port
detection similar to how it was fixed for mail in b2920b517490.
It also revealed another issue: the socket type (tcp vs. udp)
wasn't taken into account.
Fixes various aspects of --test-build-devpoll, --test-build-eventport, and
--test-build-epoll.
In particular, if --test-build-devpoll was used on Linux, then "devpoll"
event method would be preferred over "epoll". Also, wrong definitions of
event macros were chosen.
It can now be set to "off" conditionally, e.g. using the map
directive.
An empty value will disable the emission of the Server: header
and the signature in error messages generated by nginx.
Any other value is treated as "on", meaning that full nginx
version is emitted in the Server: header and error messages
generated by nginx.
