CURRENT RELEASE NOTES:
+
RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:
* Handling of non-trailing / config by non-default handler is broken
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-httpd-dev&m=105451701628081&w=2
jerenkrantz asks: Why should this block a release?
+ wsanchez agrees: this may be a change in behavior, but isn't
+ clearly wrong, and even if so, it doesn't seem like a
+ showstopper.
* the edge connection filter cannot be removed
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-httpd-dev&m=105366252619530&w=2
+
jerenkrantz asks: Why should this block a release?
- * Replace proxy handling of request bodies with something which doesn't
- gobble up arbitrary amounts of memory. See proxy_http.c in
- proxy-reqbody branch for new implementation.
+ stas replies: because it requires a rewrite of the filters stack
+ implementation (you have suggested that) and once 2.2 is
+ released you can't do that anymore.
+
CURRENT VOTES:
c) tailored httpd-std.conf should be installed to
sysconfdir/examples or manualdir/exampleconf/
+1: slive, trawick, Ken, nd (prefer the latter), erikabele
+ +1: wsanchez (propose sysconfdir/examples/<version> for diffiness)
d) Installing a set of default config files when upgrading a server
doesn't make ANY sense at all.
pquerna: Do we want to change this for 2.2?
+
RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
* Patches submitted to the bug database:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&product=Apache+httpd-2.0&keywords=PatchAvailable
- * The Event MPM does not work on Solaris 10. Solaris 10 does support the
- Threadsafe Pollsets required by the Event MPM, but it does not support
- multiple threads calling accept() at the same time. The current
- structure of the Event MPM makes adding accept() locking difficult.
-
* Filter stacks and subrequests, redirects and fast redirects.
There's at least one PR that suffers from the current unclean behaviour
(which lets the server send garbage): PR 17629
is set. If not, it means that the HEAD requests don't generate the
same headers as a GET which is wrong.
- * HP/UX 10.20: compile breakage in APR. Looks like it should be easy
- to fix, probably just some extraneous #include's that are fouling
- things up.
- PR: 9457
- Jeff: See my reply and patch in the PR (and previous commit to
- stop using "pipe" as a field name). If patch is committed, we
- should be okay. I'll wait to see if the user tests the patch.
- Update by Jeff 20020722: I got an account on HP 10.20. It looks
- like some of the APR thread detection is screwed up. If we find
- pthread.h but we can't compile the pthread test program we still
- think we can use threads. For that reason, the patch I posted
- to the PR won't work as-is since a failed compile of the test
- program means nothing.
-
* exec cmd and suexec arg-passing enhancements
Status: Patches proposed
Message-ID: <20020526041748.A29148@prodigy.Redbrick.DCU.IE>
* Can a static httpd be built reliably?
Message-ID: <20020207142751.T31582@clove.org>
- * [Ken] Test suite failures:
- o worker is also failing some of the 'cgi' subtests
- (see <URL:http://Source-Zone.Org/Apache/regression/>):
- Justin says: "Worker should be fine and passes httpd-test here.
- I think it's a perl or a httpd-test problem."
-
* Usage of APR_BRIGADE_NORMALIZE in core_input_filter should be
removed if possible.
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.33.0201202232430.318-100000@deepthought.cs.virginia.edu>
Jeff wonders if we still care about this. It is no longer an
API issue but simply an extra trip through the brigade.
- * The Add...Filter and Set...Filter directives do not allow the
- administrator to order filters, beyond the order of filename (mime)
- extensions. It isn't clear if Set...Filter(s) should be inserted
- before or after the Add...Filter(s) which are ordered by sequence of
- filename extensions. At minimum, some sort of +-[0-10] syntax seems
- like a nice solution. See ROADMAP.
-
* Get perchild to work on platforms other than Linux. This
will require a portable mechanism to pass data and file/socket
descriptors between vhost child groups. An API was proposed
lost. This might be an APR issue with how it deals with
the child_init hook (i.e. the fcntl lock needs to be resynced).
More examination and analysis is required.
- Status: This has also been reported on Cygwin.
- FreeBSD 4.7 was reputed to have 'fixed' threads. Not.
- FreeBSD 5.2-RC is a confirmed fix w/either libkse or libthr.
- [libc_r, still the default, does not serve any pages w/worker;
- so on FreeBSD 5.2, you must use libmap.conf (see man page).]
- Work needs to be done to get APR to try to be knowledgable that
- libkse/libthr are acceptable. Still not recommended for the
- default since libc_r is still broken.
- Message-ID: <3C2CC514.8EF3BED1@wapme-systems.de> (cygnus)
+ Status: Works with FreeBSD 5.3. Does not work in previous versions.
+ This has also been reported on Cygwin.
* There is increasing demand from module writers for an API
that will allow them to control the server à la apachectl.
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.44.0203011354090.16457-200000@deepthought
.cs.virginia.edu>
- * When sufficiently tested, the AllowEncodedSlashes/%2f patch
- needs to be backported to 2.0 and 1.3.
-
* APXS either needs to be fixed completely for use when apr is out of tree,
or it should drop query mode altogether, and we just grow an
httpd-config or similar arrangement.
query cases; but I'm beginning to think that in these cases
the app should be querying ap{r,u}-config directly
gstein: agreed. apxs should deprecate the -q flag
+ pquerna: I vote for a httpd-config, and to deprecate the -q flag.
+ minfrin: +1 for httpd-config, and to deprecate -q.
+
TODO ISSUES REMAINING IN MOD_SSL:
* the shmcb code should just align its memory segment rather than
jumping through all the "safe" memcpy and memset hoops
+
WISH LIST
* mod_proxy: Ability to run SSL over proxy gateway connections,
encrypting (or reencrypting) at the proxy.
jerenkrantz says: Too slow. Get regexs away from speedy caches by
default. Introduce a new CacheEnableRegex if you want.
- * mod_cache: Fix dependency on ATOMIC operators. Need
- APR_HAS_ATOMIC_* feature macros.
- jerenkrantz says: APR 1.0+ has some guaranteed form of atomics.
-
* mod_mem_cache/mod_disk_cache: Need to be able to query cache
status (num of entries, cache object properties, etc.).
mod_status could be extended to query optional hooks defined
HTTP or SNMP?
jerenkrantz says: Yawn. Who cares.
-EXPERIMENTAL MODULES:
-
- Experimental modules should eventually be be promoted to fully supported
- status or removed from the repository entirely (ie, the
- 'experiment' failed). This section tracks what needs to happen to
- get the modules promoted to fully supported status.
-
-
-Other bugs that need fixing:
-
- * ap_discard_request should be converted to use the bucket API
- directly rather than waste cycles copying buffers with the old API.
-
* MaxRequestsPerChild measures connections, not requests.
Until someone has a better way, we'll probably just rename it
"MaxConnectionsPerChild".
the <Container ~ foo> forms, and using only
<ContainerMatch foo> semantics.
- * SIGSEGV on Linux (glibc 2.1.2) isn't caught properly by a
- sigwaiting thread. We need to work around this, perhaps unless
- there is hope soon for a fixed glibc.
-
* orig_ct in the byterange/multipart handling may not be
needed. Apache 1.3 just never stashed "multipart" into
r->content_type. We should probably follow suit since the
Status: Greg volunteers to investigate (esp. since he was most
likely the one to break it :-)
