39 * srclib/apr-util/STATUS
43 CURRENT RELEASE NOTES:
46 Proposed tag is JRE_1. A proposed tarball is at:
47 http://www.apache.org/~jerenkrantz/2.0.32-jre/httpd-2.0.32-JRE-1-alpha.tar.gz
48 Win32 is not expected to work.
50 * 31 + fixes for all resolved problems and call it 32 (instead of HEAD)
51 See: http://www.apache.org/~jerenkrantz/httpd-2.0.jre.patch
52 +1: trawick, Justin, Ian
56 FINAL RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:
58 * ap_directory_walk skips some per-dir config merge functions
59 if there is no "<Directory />" block in the configuration
60 Message-ID: <m3itbdiijq.fsf@rdu163-40-092.nc.rr.com>
61 * That is very unlikely, merges are additive. Much more likely,
62 the default SetOutputFilter default or merge is borked.
63 Unless it's the code that permits 'null' merges, per module.
64 Still, it's probably in SetOutputFilter's behavior.
65 * BrianP notes: directory_walk's handling of trailing slashes
66 appears to be the cause: <3C1CF721.1090300@pacbell.net>
68 * If any request gets to the core handler, without a flag that this
69 r->filename was tested by dir/file_walk, we need to 500 at the very
70 end of the ap_process_request_internal() processing. This provides
71 authors of older modules better compatibility, while still improving
72 the security and robustness of 2.0.
73 Status: still need to decide where this goes, OtherBill comments...
74 Message-ID: <065701c14526$495203b0$96c0b0d0@roweclan.net>
75 we need to look at halting this in the 'default handler' case,
76 and that implies pushing the 'handler election' into the request
77 internal processing phase from the run request phase.
79 * Convert all instances of the old apr_lock_t type to the new
80 types (once they are fully supported in APR).
81 Status: Aaron is working on converting INTRAPROCESS
82 to apr_thread_mutex_t types. Full replacements for
83 LOCKALL and CROSS_PROCESS are not yet complete on all
84 platforms, and should only be used in MPMs like worker
85 with limited OS exposure.
86 BrianP asks: "Is this really a showstopper?"
87 IanH says: "If we don't do it before we go live we will have 2
88 different API's to support in APR"
90 * [Ken] Test suite failures:
91 o worker is also failing some of the 'cgi' subtests
92 (see <URL:http://Source-Zone.Org/Apache/regression/>):
93 Justin says: "Worker should be fine and passes httpd-test here.
94 If you can provide evidence that it can be reproduced
95 outside of httpd-test, then it's a showstopper. I
96 think it's a perl or a httpd-test problem."
97 Not a showstopper: Justin
99 * [Ken] A binbuild installation picks up the right libraries when
100 running apachectl because we set the appropriate environment
101 variable, but ab, htpasswd, etc. don't know how to pick up apr,
103 Message-ID: <20020116000226.GA15991@ebuilt.com>
104 gregames says: what about httpd? yeah, it works at the moment
105 if you use apachectl. But I've already heard
106 complaints about not being able to execute
108 Status: Aaron has committed this for all the support binaries,
109 but is hesitant to do the same for the httpd binary.
110 Message-ID: <20020207142751.T31582@clove.org>
115 * Should we always build binaries statically unless otherwise
117 Message-ID: <20020129210006.B23512@Lithium.MeepZor.Com>
122 * If the parent process dies, should the remaining child processes
123 "gracefully" self-terminate. Or maybe we should make it a runtime
124 option, or have a concept of 2 parent processes (one being a
126 See: Message-ID: <3C58232C.FE91F19F@Golux.Com>
128 Self-destruct: Ken, Martin
129 Not self-destruct: BrianP, Ian, Cliff, BillS
130 Make it runtime configurable: Aaron, Jim, Justin
131 Have 2 parents: +1: Jim
133 +0: Martin (while standing by, could it do
135 look at accept() error handling first: gregames
137 * Make the worker MPM the default MPM for threaded Unix boxes.
138 +1: Justin, Ian, Cliff
139 -0: Aaron (premature decision, needs more discussion), Lars
141 RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
143 * Usage of APR_BRIGADE_NORMALIZE in core_input_filter should be
145 Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.33.0201202232430.318-100000@deepthought.cs.virginia.edu>
147 * There is a bug in how we sort some hooks, at least the pre-config
148 hook. The first time we call the hooks, they are in the correct
149 order, but the second time, we don't sort them correctly. Currently,
150 the modules/http/config.m4 file has been renamed to
151 modules/http/config2.m4 to work around this problem, it should moved
152 back when this is fixed. rbb
153 Justin says: "Is this really a showstopper? This has been here
154 forever. What's wrong? Does this have to do with
156 Not a showstopper: Justin, BrianP, trawick, gregames
158 * The Add...Filter and Set...Filter directives do not allow the
159 administrator to order filters, beyond the order of filename (mime)
160 extensions. It isn't clear if Set...Filter(s) should be inserted
161 before or after the Add...Filter(s) which are ordered by sequence of
162 filename extensions. At minimum, some sort of +-[0-10] syntax seems
163 like the quickest fix for a 2.0 gold release.
164 Justin says: "Could we delay this for a point release or 2.1?"
165 Not a showstopper: justin, wrowe, trawick, stoddard, Jim, Ian, Aaron,
168 * Make some modifications to the scoreboard creation routines,
169 prefer anonymous shared memory, and allow a configuration
170 directive to override the defaults.
171 Message-ID: <20020130080804.C16977@clove.org>
172 Status: Aaron volunteers
174 * Get perchild to work on platforms other than Linux. This
175 will require a portable mechanism to pass data and file/socket
176 descriptors between vhost child groups. An API was proposed
178 Message-ID: <20020111115006.K1529@clove.org>
180 * Recent changes to ap_rgetline may have broken EBCDIC boxes.
181 Message-ID: <20020122072605.GF28051@ebuilt.com>
182 Justin says: "I don't have an EBCDIC box to test on. A potential
183 solution is to split out ap_rgetline into two
184 functions as described in this message."
185 gregames says: I see the breakage now, and volunteer to fix it
186 when things calm down a little. It looks OK when
187 there are complete lines and no mime continuations.
189 * Modify the worker MPM so that it doesn't need to create and
190 destroy a pool for each request--possibly by adopting a
191 leader/follower model in which each worker owns a persistent
192 ptrans pool (like the prefork MPM) and the workers take
193 turns acting as listeners...this approach might also help
194 reduce context-switching
196 * CGI single-byte reads
197 BrianP suggests that this is caused by the ap_scan_script_header_err()
198 routine, which will do single-byte reads until it finds the end
199 of the header, at which point it constructs a pipe-bucket (buffered)
201 Proposed solution in:
202 Message-ID: <3C36ADAF.60601@cnet.com>
204 * Try to get libtool inter-library dependency code working on AIX.
205 Message-ID: <cm3n10lx555.fsf@rdu163-40-092.nc.rr.com>
207 Justin says: If we get it working on AIX, we can enable this
208 on all platforms and clean up our build system
210 Jeff says: I thought I tested a patch for you sometime in
211 January that you were going to commit within a few
214 * Handling of %2f in URIs. Currently both 1.3 and 2.0
215 completely disallow %2f in the request URI path (see
216 ap_unescape_url() in util.c). It's permitted and passed
217 through in the query string, however. Roy says the
218 original reason for disallowing it, from five years ago,
219 was to protect CGI scripts that applied PATH_INFO to
220 a filesystem location and which might be tricked by
221 ..%2f..%2f(...). We *should* allow path-info of the
222 form 'http://foo.com/index.cgi/path/to/path%2finfo'.
223 Since we've revamped a lot of our processing of path
224 segments, it would be nice to allow this, or at least
225 allow it conditionally with a directive.
227 * FreeBSD, threads, and worker MPM. All seems to work fine
228 if you only have one worker process with many threads. Add
229 a second worker process and the accept lock seems to be
230 lost. This might be an APR issue with how it deals with
231 the child_init hook (i.e. the fcntl lock needs to be resynced).
232 More examination and analysis is required.
233 Status: This has also been reported on Cygwin.
234 Message-ID: <3C2CC514.8EF3BED1@wapme-systems.de> (cygnus)
236 Justin says: So, FreeBSD-CURRENT and Cywin have the same
237 problem. Yum. If another platform has this
238 with worker, this becomes a showstopper.
239 Aaron says: I spent some time disecting this and have come to
240 the conclusion that it is not a problem in the worker MPM
241 (or at least, it is not isolated to a problem in worker).
242 I'll list some of the problems I'm seeing in case someone
243 else wants to pick up where I've left off:
244 - Delivery of just about any signal to one of the child
245 processes will send it into an infinite loop as well.
246 - Even though the parent is spinning out of control,
247 at first the child or children will appear to work
248 properly. At times it is possible to get it into a state,
249 however, where a request will hang until another concurrent
250 request "kicks" the first, at which point the second will
251 hang. My theory is that this has to do with the
252 pthread_cond_*() implementation in FreeBSD, but it's still
253 possible that it is in APR.
255 Justin adds: Oh, FreeBSD threads are implemented entirely with
256 select()/poll()/longjmp(). Welcome to the nightmare.
257 So, that means a ktrace output also has the thread
258 scheduling internals in it (since it is all the same to
259 the kernel). Which makes it hard to distinguish between
260 our select() calls and their select() calls.
261 *bangs head on wall repeatedly* But, some of the libc_r
262 files have a DBG_MSG #define. This is moderately helpful
263 when used with -DNO_DETACH. The kernel scheduler isn't
264 waking up the threads on a select(). Yum. And, I bet
265 those decrementing select calls have to do with the
266 scheduler. Time to brush up on our OS fundamentals.
268 * There is increasing demand from module writers for an API
269 that will allow them to control the server à la apachectl.
270 Reasons include sole-function servers that need to die if
271 an external dependency (e.g., a database) fails, et cetera.
272 Perhaps something in the (ever more abused) scoreboard?
273 rbb: I don't believe the scoreboard is the correct mechanism
274 for this. We already have a pipe that goes between parent
275 and child for graceful shutdown events, along with an API that
276 can be used to send a message down that pipe. In threaded MPMs,
277 it is easy enough to make that one pipe be used for graceful
278 and graceless events, and it is also easy to open that pipe
279 to both parent and child for writing. Then we just need to
280 figure out how to do graceless on non-threaded MPMs.
282 * Allow the DocumentRoot directive within <Location > scopes? This
283 allows the beloved (crusty) Alias /foo/ /somepath/foo/ followed
284 by a <Directory /somepath/foo> to become simply
285 <Location /foo/> DocumentRoot /somefile/foo (IMHO a bit more legible
286 and in-your-face.) DocumentRoot unset would be accepted [and would
287 not permit content to be served, only virtual resources such as
288 server-info or server-status.
289 This proposed change would _not_ depricate Alias.
291 * Win32: Rotatelogs sometimes is not terminated when Apache
292 goes down hard. FirstBill was looking at possibly tracking the
293 child's-child processes in the parent process.
294 OtherBill asks, wasn't this fixed?
295 stoddard: Not fixed. Shared scoreboard might offer a good
296 way for the parent to keep track of 'other child' processes
297 and whack them if the child goes down.
299 * Win32: Add a simple hold console open patch (wait for close or
300 the ESC key, with a nice message) if the server died a bad
301 death (non-zero exit code) in console mode.
302 Resolution: bring forward same ugly hacks from 1.3.13-.20
304 * Port of mod_ssl to Apache 2.0:
306 The current porting state is summarized in modules/ssl/README. The
307 remaining work includes:
308 (1) stablizing/optimizing the SSL filter logic
309 (2) Enabling the various SSL caching mechanisms (shmcb, shmht)
310 (3) Enabling SSL extentions
311 (4) Trying to seperate the https filter logic from mod_ssl -
312 This is to facilitate other modules that wish to use the https
313 filter or the mod_ssl logic or both as required.
314 Justin: mod_ssl filter logic is redone, so that should be fine.
315 Madhu has submitted a patch for SSL caching - however, I
316 am -0 on that patch as I *think* we could implement the
317 shared memory another way that is much cleaner (i.e.
318 treat shmem directly as a dbm via APR routines). Justin
319 also thinks that the https filter logic may be sufficiently
320 decoupled now, but isn't really sure.
322 * Performance & Debug: Eliminate most (and perhaps all) of the
323 malloc/free calls in the bucket brigade code. Need some
324 light weight memory management functions that allow freeing
325 memory (putting it back into a memory pool) when it is no
326 longer needed. Enabling simple debugging features like guard
327 bands, double free detection, etc. would be cool but certainly
328 not a hard requirement.
330 Status: Cliff started to implement this using SMS as has
331 been discussed at length for months, but since
332 SMS is not being used anywhere else in the server,
333 several people expressed the opinion that we should
334 get rid of it entirely, meaning that the buckets
335 need their own memory management (free list) functions.
336 Cliff will implement that this weekend so we at least
337 have something to look at/compare with.
339 * Eliminate unnecessary creation of pipes in mod_cgid
340 Status: Ken asks, didn't Jeff fix this when he fixed the queue
343 * the autoconf setup should be fixed to default to using the
344 "Apache" layout from config.layout, and each variable settable
345 in a layout should be overridable on the command line. Plus,
346 what we do right now just doesn't seem to fully fit into how autoconf
347 works, eg. AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT issues.
348 Message-ID: <Pine.BSF.4.20.0104031557420.20876-100000@alive.znep.com>
350 * Combine log_child and piped_log_spawn. Clean up http_log.c.
353 * Document mod_file_cache.
355 * Platforms that do not support fork (primarily Win32 and AS/400)
356 Architect start-up code that avoids initializing all the modules
357 in the parent process on platforms that do not support fork.
359 * Win32: Migrate the MPM over to use APR thread/process calls. This
360 would eliminate some code in the Win32 branch that essentially
361 duplicates what is in APR.
363 * There are still a number of places in the code where we are
364 losing error status (i.e. throwing away the error returned by a
365 system call and replacing it with a generic error code)
367 * Mass vhosting version of suEXEC.
369 * All DBMs suffer from confusion in support/dbmmanage (perl script) since
370 the dbmmanage employs the first-matched dbm format. This is not
371 necessarily the library that Apache was built with. Aught to
372 rewrite dbmmanage upon installation to bin/ with the proper library
373 for predictable mod_auth_dbm administration.
374 Questions; htdbm exists, time to kill dbmmanage, or does it remain
375 useful as a perl dbm management example? If we keep it,
376 do we address the issue above?
379 Some additional items remaining:
380 - case_preserved_filename stuff
381 (use the new canonical name stuff?)
382 - find a new home for ap_text(_header)
383 - is it possible to remove the DAV: namespace stuff from util_xml?
385 * ap_core_translate() and its use by mod_mmap_static and mod_file_cache
386 are a bit wonky. The function should probably be exposed as a utility
387 function (such as ap_translate_url2fs() or ap_validate_fs_url() or
388 something). Another approach would be a new hook phase after
389 "translate" which would allow the module to munge what the
390 translation has decided to do.
391 Status: Greg +1 (volunteers), Ryan +1
393 * Explore use of a post-config hook for the code in http_main.c which
394 calls ap_fixup_virutal_hosts(), ap_fini_vhost_config(), and
395 ap_sort_hooks() [to reduce the logic in main()]
397 * read the config tree just once, and process N times (as necessary)
399 * (possibly) use UUIDs in mod_unique_id and/or mod_usertrack
401 * (possibly) port the bug fix for PR 6942 (segv when LoadModule is put
402 into a VirtualHost container) to 2.0.
404 * shift stuff to mod_core.h
406 * callers of ap_run_create_request() should check the return value
407 for failure (Doug volunteers)
409 * Win32: Get Apache working on Windows 95/98. The following work
410 (at least) needs to be done:
411 - winnt MPM: Fix 95/98 code paths in the winnt MPM. There is some NT
412 specific code that is still not in NT only code paths
413 - IOL binds to APR sendfile, implemented with TransmitFile, which
414 is not available on 95/98.
415 - Document warning that OSR2 is required (for Crypt functions, in
416 rand.c, at least.) This could be resolved with an SSL library, or
417 randomization in APR itself.
418 - Bring the Win9xConHook.dll from 1.3 into 2.0 (no sense till it
419 actually works) and add in a splash of Win9x service code.
421 * In order to use a DSO version of mod_ssl we have to link with
422 -lssl and -lcrypto. A workaround is in place right now where the
423 entire EXTRA_LIBS macro is being appended to the objects list, but
424 this is a hack. We should either revamp the APACHE_CHECK_SSL_TOOLKIT
425 autoconf function or come up with some other autoconf checks to
426 search for libssl and libcrypto and properly add them to mod_ssl's
429 * Fix the worker MPM to use POD to kill child processes instead
430 of ap_os_killpg, regardless of how they should die. (Ryan Bloom)

795 Status: Cannot accept password-as-arg, we should prompt the

799 AllowOverride should have a 'CheckNone' and 'AllowNone' argument
800 instead of only 'None'
803 Other bugs that need fixing:
805 * MaxRequestsPerChild measures connections, not requests.
806 Until someone has a better way, we'll probably just rename it
807 "MaxConnectionsPerChild".
809 * Regex containers don't work in an intutive way
810 Status: No one has come up with an efficient way to fix this
811 behavior. Dean has suggested getting rid of regex containers
813 OtherBill suggests: We at least seem to agree on eliminating
814 the <Container ~ foo> forms, and using only
815 <ContainerMatch foo> semantics.
817 * SIGSEGV on Linux (glibc 2.1.2) isn't caught properly by a
818 sigwaiting thread. We need to work around this, perhaps unless
819 there is hope soon for a fixed glibc.
821 * orig_ct in the byterange/multipart handling may not be
822 needed. Apache 1.3 just never stashed "multipart" into
823 r->content_type. We should probably follow suit since the
824 byterange stuff doesn't want the rest of the code to see the
825 multipart content-type; the other code should still think it is
826 dealing with the <orig_ct> stuff.
827 Status: Greg volunteers to investigate (esp. since he was most
828 likely the one to break it :-)
830 Other features that need writing:
832 * Finish infrastructure in core for async MPMs
835 * TODO in source -- just do an egrep on "TODO" and see what's there
839 * Jon Travis's <jtravis@covalent.net> patch to deal with thread-safe
840 issues with inet_ntoa. See message <20001201163220.A12827@covalent.net>
841 Status: This is being set aside until the IPv6 work is finished
842 so that we know exactly what is required.
844 * Martin Sojka <msojka@gmx.de>'s patch to add error reporting for failed
845 htpasswd actions due to a full /tmp volume (other programs may have
850 * Mike Abbott's <mja@trudge.engr.sgi.com> patches to improve
852 Status: These were written for 1.3, and are awaiting a port to
855 * Jim Winstead's <jimw@trainedmonkey.com> patch to add CookieDomain and
856 other small mod_usertrack features
858 * Dan Rench's <drench@xnet.com> patch to add allow the errmsg and timefmt
859 of SSI's to be modified in the config file. Patch is available in
864 * Which MPMs will be included with Apache 2.0?
