Allowed add_header for proxied 206 replies.
It was working for nginx's own 206 replies as they are seen as 200 in the
headers filter module (range filter goes later in the headers filter chain),
but not for proxied replies.
Fixed segfault on ssl servers without cert with SNI (ticket #54).
Non-default servers may not have ssl context created if there are no
certificate defined. Make sure to check if ssl context present before
using it.
Fixed flv header to match specification.
Used "\x5" in 5th byte to claim presence of both audio and video. Used
previous tag size 0 in the beginning of the flv body (bytes 10 .. 13) as
required by specification (see http://www.adobe.com/devnet/f4v.html).
Patch by Piotr Sikora.
Introduction of simple ngx_write_stderr() instead of ngx_log_stderr()
for output of ./configure options, etc., since ngx_log_stderr() output
length is limited by 2048 characters defined as NGX_MAX_ERROR_STR.
Fixes for proxy_set_header, fastcgi/scgi/uwsgi_param inheritance:
*) Fixed proxy_set_header inheritance with proxy_cache (ticket #45).
Headers cleared with cache enabled (If-Modified-Since etc.) might be
cleared in unrelated servers/locations without proxy_cache enabled
if proxy_cache was used in some server/location.
Example config which triggered the problem:
proxy_set_header X-Test "test";
server { location /1 { proxy_cache name; proxy_pass ... } }
server { location /2 { proxy_pass ... } }
Another one:
server {
proxy_cache name;
location /1 { proxy_pass ... }
location /2 { proxy_cache off; proxy_pass ... }
}
In both cases If-Modified-Since header wasn't sent to backend in
location /2.
Fix is to not modify conf->headers_source, but instead merge user-supplied
headers from conf->headers_source and default headers (either cache or not)
into separate headers_merged array.
*) Fixed proxy_set_header inheritance with proxy_set_body.
*) Separate functions to merge fastcgi/scgi/uwsgi params.
No functional changes.
*) Fixed fastcgi/scgi/uwsgi_param inheritance. The following problems were
fixed:
1. Directive fastcgi_cache affected headers sent to backends in unrelated
servers / locations (see ticket #45).
2. If-Unmodified-Since, If-Match and If-Range headers were sent to
backends if fastcgi_cache was used.
3. Cache-related headers were sent to backends if there were no
fastcgi_param directives and fastcgi_cache was used at server level.
Minor cleanup:
*) Changed error message to be more appropriate in the imaginary
"open_file_cache max=0" case.
*) Fixed NGX_CONF_TAKE1/NGX_CONF_FLAG misuse.
Configure/build changes and fixes:
*) Revamped "configure --help" text.
*) FreeBSD 10-current has recently gotten POSIX_FADV_* macros.
A fix for the broken build applied.
*) AIX 7 defines sys_nerr in errno.h, therefore <errno.h> included
in the sys_nerr test.
When sys_nerr and _sys_nerr are missed on a particular platform
and our euristic for a maximum errno detection applied always
print the maximum errno number we reached instead of printing void.
This makes possible to build nginx on AIX 7.1.
*) Made it possible to build/install from the SVN checkout.
Fixed unix ngx_write_chain_to_file() to return total bytes written.
Previously result of last iteration's writev() was returned. This was
unnoticed as return value was only used if chain contained only one or
two buffers.
Better handling of late upstream creation.
Configuration with duplicate upstream blocks defined after first use, i.e.
like
server {
...
location / {
proxy_pass http://backend;
}
}
upstream backend { ... }
upstream backend { ... }
now correctly results in "duplicate upstream" error.
Additionally, upstream blocks defined after first use now handle various
server directive parameters ("weight", "max_fails", etc.). Previously
configuration like
server {
...
location / {
proxy_pass http://backend;
}
}
upstream backend {
server 127.0.0.1 max_fails=5;
}
incorrectly resulted in "invalid parameter "max_fails=5"" error.
Upstream: clearing of u->peer.connection on close.
This fixes crashes observed with some 3rd party balancer modules. Standard
balancer modules (round-robin and ip hash) explicitly set pc->connection
(aka u->peer.connection) to NULL and aren't affected.
Additional headers for proxy/fastcgi/uwsgi/scgi_ignore_headers.
Now the following headers may be ignored as well: X-Accel-Limit-Rate,
X-Accel-Buffering, X-Accel-Charset.
Perl related fixes:
*) Handling of Content-Encoding set from perl.
This fixes double gzipping in case of gzip filter being enabled while perl
returns already gzipped response.
*) Fixed macro name.
AIO related fixes:
*) Fix for connection drops with AIO.
Connections serving content with AIO to fast clients were dropped with
"client timed out" messages after send_timeout from response start.
*) Fix for socket leak with "aio sendfile" and "limit_rate".
Second aio post happened when timer set by limit_rate expired while we have
aio request in flight, resulting in "second aio post" alert and socket leak.
The patch adds actual protection from aio calls with r->aio already set to
aio sendfile code in ngx_http_copy_filter(). This should fix other cases
as well, e.g. when sending buffered to disk upstream replies while still
talking to upstream.
The ngx_http_writer() is also fixed to handle the above case (though it's
mostly optimization now).
Autoindex fixes:
*) Autoindex: escape '?' in file names.
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.

*) Autoindex: escape html in file names.
Windows related fixes:
*) Fixed segmentation fault with empty config on Windows.
See here for report:
http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-ru/2011-September/043288.html
*) Recent SDKs allow to build IPV6 only for Windows XP or above.
*) Fixing conflict with SDK off_t definition.
*) Fix of building by Microsoft Visual C++ 10 compiler.
HTTP cache related fixes:
*) Cache: fix for sending of empty responses.
Revert wrong fix for empty responses introduced in 0.8.31 and apply new
one, rewritten to match things done by static module as close as possible.
*) Cache: fix for sending of stale responses.
For normal cached responses ngx_http_cache_send() sends last buffer and then
request finalized via ngx_http_finalize_request() call, i.e. everything is
ok.
But for stale responses (i.e. when upstream died, but we have something in
cache) the same ngx_http_cache_send() sends last buffer, but then in
ngx_http_upstream_finalize_request() another last buffer is send. This
causes duplicate final chunk to appear if chunked encoding is used (and
resulting problems with keepalive connections and so on).
Fix this by not sending in ngx_http_upstream_finalize_request()
another last buffer if we know response was from cache.
*) Fixed cache bypass caching of non-cacheable replies (ticket #21).
If cache was bypassed with proxy_cache_bypass, cache-controlling headers
(Cache-Control, Expires) wasn't considered and response was cached even
if it was actually non-cacheable.
Patch by John Ferlito.
Fixes of combination of error_page and return directives:
*) Fix for incorrect 201 replies from dav module.
Replies with 201 code contain body, and we should clearly indicate it's
empty if it's empty. Before 0.8.32 chunked was explicitly disabled for
201 replies and as a result empty body was indicated by connection close
(not perfect, but worked). Since 0.8.32 chunked is enabled, and this
causes incorrect responses from dav module when HTTP/1.1 is used: with
"Transfer-Encoding: chunked" but no chunks at all.
Fix is to actually return empty body in special response handler instead
of abusing r->header_only flag.
See here for initial report:
http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-ru/2010-October/037535.html
*) Fix for double content when return is used in error_page handler.
Test case:
location / {
error_page 405 /nope;
return 405;
}
location /nope {
return 200;
}
This is expected to return 405 with empty body, but in 0.8.42+ will return
builtin 405 error page as well (though not counted in Content-Length, thus
breaking protocol).
Fix is to use status provided by rewrite script execution in case
it's less than NGX_HTTP_BAD_REQUEST even if r->error_status set. This
check is in line with one in ngx_http_script_return_code().
Note that this patch also changes behaviour for "return 302 ..." and
"rewrite ... redirect" used as error handler. E.g.
location / {
error_page 405 /redirect;
return 405;
}
location /redirect {
rewrite ^ http://example.com/;
}
will actually return redirect to "http://example.com/" instead of builtin
405 error page with meaningless Location header. This looks like correct
change and it's in line with what happens on e.g. directory redirects
in error handlers.
*) Fix for "return 202" not discarding body.
Big POST (not fully preread) to a
location / {
return 202;
}
resulted in incorrect behaviour due to "return" code path not calling
ngx_http_discard_request_body(). The same applies to all "return" used
with 2xx/3xx codes except 201 and 204, and to all "return ... text" uses.
Fix is to add ngx_http_discard_request_body() call to
ngx_http_send_response() function where it looks appropriate.
Discard body call from emtpy gif module removed as it's now redundant.
Reported by Pyry Hakulinen, see
http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx/2011-August/028503.html
*) Incorrect special case for "return 204" removed.
The special case in question leads to replies without body in
configuration like
location / { error_page 404 /zero; return 404; }
location /zero { return 204; }
while replies with empty body are expected per protocol specs.
Correct one will look like
if (status == NGX_HTTP_NO_CONTENT) {
rc = ngx_http_send_header(r);
if (rc == NGX_ERROR || r->header_only) {
return rc;
}
return ngx_http_send_special(r, NGX_HTTP_LAST);
}
though it looks like it's better to drop this special case at all.
*) Clear old Location header (if any) while adding a new one.
This prevents incorrect behaviour when another redirect is issued within
error_page 302 handler.
Various fixes related to error messages:
*) Removed old warning that suggested to use "server_name_in_redirect off"
(now the default) in place of no longer supported "server_name *".
*) Fixing directive name in error message if types hash size is not enough.
*) Replaced "can not" with "cannot" and "could not" in a bunch of places.
Fixed nearby grammar errors.
*) Overhauled error messages.
SSL related fixes:
*) Better handling of various per-server ssl options with SNI.
SSL_set_SSL_CTX() doesn't touch values cached within ssl connection
structure, it only changes certificates (at least as of now, OpenSSL
1.0.0d and earlier).
As a result settings like ssl_verify_client, ssl_verify_depth,
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers are only configurable on per-socket basis while
with SNI it should be possible to specify them different for two servers
listening on the same socket.
Workaround is to explicitly re-apply settings we care about from context
to ssl connection in servername callback.
Note that SSL_clear_options() is only available in OpenSSL 0.9.8m+. I.e.
with older versions it is not possible to clear ssl_prefer_server_ciphers
option if it's set in default server for a socket.
*) Disabling SSL compression. This saves about 300K per SSL connection.
The SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION option is available since OpenSSL 1.0.0.
*) Releasing memory of idle SSL connection. This saves about 34K per SSL
connection. The SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS option is available since
OpenSSL 1.0.0d.
*) Decrease of log level of some SSL handshake errors.
*) Fixed segfault on configuration testing with ssl (ticket #37).
The following config caused segmentation fault due to conf->file not
being properly set if "ssl on" was inherited from the http level:
http {
ssl on;
server {
}
}
*) Silently ignoring a stale global SSL error left after disabled renegotiation.
