+ http://svn.apache.org/r1818279
+1: druggeri, jim
- mrumph: I had a chance to review this proposal.
- I committed some suggested changes to trunk in r1806985.
- Also, the copyright in mod_remoteip.c is of some concern.
- Perhaps the terms of the copyright should be included in that note.
- And on a personal note, today is my last day with Oracle.
- So it may well be my last day with Apache as well.
- It has been great working with all of you.
- jim: Not sure what the copyright concern is, but added r1806985
- to the proposal.
ylavic: RemoteIPProxyProtocol* are documented as scoped to server config
and virtual host, though using ap_server_conf makes them global
only (thus less useful too...).
-
- *) core/mod_ssl: Add new flag int to module struct. Define first bit for keeping
- server config records non-shared instances, set for mod_ssl to make manipulations
- in post_config safe.
- trunk patch: svn merge -c 1809302,1809303,1809305,1809311,1809314,1809713 ^/httpd/httpd/trunk .
- 2.4.x patch: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/patches/2.4.x/backport-module-flags.diff
- (merge with alterations for mmn etc., updated after review by Yann)
- +1: icing, ylavic

- *) core: A signal received while stopping could have crashed the main
- process. PR 61558.

- http://svn.apache.org/r1812339

- http://svn.apache.org/r1812339
- +1: jkaluza, jim
- jchampion: Looks like the headers require GCC extensions to compile, so
- mod_journald can't be configured in maintainer mode (-std=c89).
- Can anyone else reproduce, or is it just my distro?
- ylavic: missing r1812339 for maintainer-mode/c89/-Werror compliance,
- needed if the above configure.in proposal gets backported.
- Note that r1812339 could be backported in any case, even if
- the above configure.in proposal does not get accepted.
-
- *) mpm_event: avoid a very unlikely race condition between the listener and
- the workers when the latter fails to add a connection to the pollset.
- trunk patch: http://svn.apache.org/r1809273
- http://svn.apache.org/r1814719 (CHANGES only)

+ +1: jim, icing
+ icing: tested on ubuntu 16.04 with a simple uwsgi python app.

PATCHES/ISSUES THAT ARE BEING WORKED
So the only fix allowing us to use PCRE 10 in httpd 2.4 would be to write
this as a thread safe storage buffer for the majority of cases (<10 $args)
and we don't have a portable tls mechanism to do so.
+ jorton: Adding ap_pregexec/_len which pass a pool would also work
+ for internal users of this api; not sure if performance
+ impact is significant from using malloc here.
PATCHES/ISSUES THAT ARE STALLED
really cover a very narrow set of parameters with the way it skips over backreferences?
Also, why a new API vs. just setting the field inline?
- * mod_systemd: New module, for integration with systemd on Linux.
- trunk patch: http://svn.apache.org/r1393976
- http://svn.apache.org/r1393997
- http://svn.apache.org/r1484554

- http://svn.apache.org/r1618579
- http://svn.apache.org/r1618588
- 2.4.x patch: http://people.apache.org/~jkaluza/patches/mod_systemd/httpd-2.4.x-mod_systemd.patch
- +1: jkaluza
- sf comments: The IdleShutdown logic seems broken. Consider a single
- active connection that is stalled for 10 seconds. That
- connection will be broken after GracefulShutdownTimeout.
- A better logic would be to check if there is any open
- connection that is not in keep-alive state.
-
* core: Add support for systemd socket activation.
trunk patch: http://svn.apache.org/r1511033
http://svn.apache.org/r1608686
cgi-examples/ dir alongside cgi-bin/? Otherwise manual/cgi/examples
might work?
- * core: block Define and Undefine in vhost and directory context. Because
- it is EXEC_ON_READ, it "breaks out" of these contexts anyway.
- trunk patch: http://svn.apache.org/r1656063
- http://svn.apache.org/r1656122
- 2.4.x patch: http://people.apache.org/~covener/patches/2.4.x-define-limits.diff
- +1: covener (I need to review the docs manually in this area)
- -1: wrowe (blocking will break "working" .conf files on a subversion update
- meant to pick up security fixes. "Alerting" I would agree to.)
-
+ *) mod_journald: Add new module mod_journald to log error logs into journald.
