This fixes "called a function you should not call" and
"shutdown while in init" errors as observed with OpenSSL 1.0.2f
due to changes in how OpenSSL handles SSL_shutdown() during
SSL handshakes.
The install_sw target first appeared in OpenSSL 0.9.7e and is documented since
OpenSSL 1.0.0 as the way to install the OpenSSL software without documentation.
Before 7142b04337d6, it was possible to build the OpenSSL library
along with nginx, and link nginx statically with this library
(--with-openssl=DIR --with-ld-opt=-static --with-http_ssl_module).
This was broken on Linux by not adding -ldl after -lcrypto.
The fix also makes it possible to link nginx statically on Linux
with the system OpenSSL library, which never worked before.
Now we always set NGX_CC_NAME to "msvc", and additionally test compiler
version as reported by "cl" in auto/cc/msvc (the same version is also
available via the _MSC_VER define). In particular, this approach allows
to properly check for C99 variadic macros support, which previously was
not used with MSVC versions not explicitly recognized.
Now unneeded wildcards in NGX_CC_NAME tests for msvc removed accordingly,
as well as unused wildcards for owc and icc.
When the "pending" value is zero, the "buf" will be right shifted
by the width of its type, which results in undefined behavior.

Changes to NGX_MODULE_V1 and ngx_module_t in 85dea406e18f (1.9.11)
broke all modules written in C++, because ISO C++11 does not allow
conversion from string literal to char *.

The auto/module script is extended to understand ngx_module_link=DYNAMIC.
When set, it links the module as a shared object rather than statically
into nginx binary. The module can later be loaded using the "load_module"
directive.
New auto/module parameter ngx_module_order allows to define module loading
order in complex cases. By default the order is set based on ngx_module_type.
3rd party modules can be compiled dynamically using the --add-dynamic-module
configure option, which will preset ngx_module_link to "DYNAMIC" before
calling the module config script.
Win32 support is rudimentary, and only works when using MinGW gcc (which
is able to handle exports/imports automatically).
In collaboration with Ruslan Ermilov.
This script simplifies configuration of additional modules,
including 3rd party ones. The script is extensible, and
will be used to introduce dynamic linking of modules in upcoming
changes.
3rd party module config scripts are called with ngx_module_link
preset to "ADDON" - this allows config scripts to call auto/module
without ngx_module_link explicitly defined, as well as testing if
new interface is in place if compatibility with older nginx versions
is desired.
In collaboration with Ruslan Ermilov.
Additionally, HTTP_HEADERS_FILTER_MODULE now added to HTTP_FILTER_MODULES.
This avoids explict use of modules at the later stages, now only module
lists are used. This will be needed in later patches.
Due to greater priority of the unary plus operator over the ternary operator
the expression didn't work as expected. That might result in one byte less
allocation than needed for the HEADERS frame buffer.
The previous code only parsed the first answer, without checking its
type, and required a compressed RR name.
The new code checks the RR type, supports responses with multiple
answers, and doesn't require the RR name to be compressed.
This has a side effect in limited support of CNAME. If a response
includes both CNAME and PTR RRs, like when recursion is enabled on
the server, PTR RR is handled.
Full CNAME support in PTR response is not implemented in this change.
Previously, a global server balancer was used to assign the next DNS server to
send a query to. That could lead to a non-uniform distribution of servers per
request. A request could be assigned to the same dead server several times in a
row and wait longer for a valid server or even time out without being processed.
Now each query is sent to all servers sequentially in a circle until a
response is received or timeout expires. Initial server for each request is
still globally balanced.
When several requests were waiting for a response, then after getting
a CNAME response only the last request's context had the name updated.
Contexts of other requests had the wrong name. This name was used by
ngx_resolve_name_done() to find the node to remove the request context
from. When the name was wrong, the request could not be properly
cancelled, its context was freed but stayed linked to the node's waiting
list. This happened e.g. when the first request was aborted or timed
out before the resolving completed. When it completed, this triggered
a use-after-free memory access by calling ctx->handler of already freed
request context. The bug manifests itself by
"could not cancel <name> resolving" alerts in error_log.
When a request was responded with a CNAME, the request context kept
the pointer to the original node's rn->u.cname. If the original node
expired before the resolving timed out or completed with an error,
this would trigger a use-after-free memory access via ctx->name in
ctx->handler().
The fix is to keep ctx->name unmodified. The name from context
is no longer used by ngx_resolve_name_done(). Instead, we now keep
the pointer to resolver node to which this request is linked.
Keeping the original name intact also improves logging.
