CURRENT RELEASE NOTES:

* 36 status:
|
||
|
||
RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:
|
||
|
||
* Daedalus segfaults with 2.0.35
|
||
Greg and Cliff are working on this.
|
||
|
||
* HTTP chunk reads fail to read the trailers.
|
||
|
||
CURRENT VOTES:
|
||
|
||
* Should we always build [support*] binaries statically unless otherwise
|
||
indicated?
|
||
Message-ID: <20020129210006.B23512@Lithium.MeepZor.Com>
|
||
|
||
+1: Ken, *wrowe [they are PITAs on OSX]
|
||
-1: Justin, Ian
|
||
|
||
* If the parent process dies, should the remaining child processes
|
||
"gracefully" self-terminate. Or maybe we should make it a runtime
|
||
option, or have a concept of 2 parent processes (one being a
|
||
"hot spare").
|
||
See: Message-ID: <3C58232C.FE91F19F@Golux.Com>
|
||
|
||
Self-destruct: Ken, Martin
|
||
Not self-destruct: BrianP, Ian, Cliff, BillS
|
||
Make it runtime configurable: Aaron, Jim, Justin
|
||
Have 2 parents: +1: Jim
|
||
-1: Justin, wrowe [for 2.0]
|
||
+0: Martin (while standing by, could it do
|
||
something useful?)
|
||
|
||
* Make the worker MPM the default MPM for threaded Unix boxes.
|
||
+1: Justin, Ian, Cliff
|
||
-0: Aaron (premature decision, needs more discussion), Lars
|
||
|
||
RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
|
||
* We do not properly substitute the prefix-variables in the configuration
|
||
scripts or generated-configs. (i.e. if sysconfdir is etc,
|
||
httpd-std.conf points to conf.)
|
||
|
||
* If any request gets through ap_process_request_internal() and is
|
||
scheduled to be served by the core handler, without a flag that this
|
||
r->filename was tested by dir/file_walk, we need to 500 at the very
|
||
end of the ap_process_request_internal() processing so sub_req-esters
|
||
know this request cannot be run. This provides authors of older
|
||
modules better compatibility, while still improving the security and
|
||
robustness of 2.0.
|
||
|
||
Status: still need to decide where this goes, OtherBill comments...
|
||
Message-ID: <065701c14526$495203b0$96c0b0d0@roweclan.net>
|
||
[Deleted comments regarding the ap_run_handler phase, as irrelevant
|
||
as BillS points out that "common case will be caught in
|
||
default_handler already (with the r->finfo.filetype == 0 check)"
|
||
and the issue is detecting this -before- we try to run the req.]
|
||
|
||
gregames says: can this happen somehow without a broken module
|
||
being involved? If not, why waste cycles trying to defend against
|
||
potential broken modules? It seems futile.
|
||
wrowe counters: no, it shouldn't happen unless the module is broken.
|
||
But the right answer is to fail the request up-front in dir/file
|
||
walk if the path was entirely invalid; and we can't do that either
|
||
or we break modules that are unwilling to hook map_to_storage.
|
||
|
||
* Rewrite core_output_filter. It is nearly impossible to support
|
||
it with predictable results as it is implemented now.
|
||
|
||
* Convert all instances of the old apr_lock_t type to the new
|
||
types.
|
||
|
||
* With AP_MODE_EXHAUSTIVE in the core, it is finally clear to me
|
||
how the Perchild MPM should be re-written. It hasn't worked
|
||
correctly since filters were added because it wasn't possible to
|
||
get the content that had already been written and the socket at
|
||
the same time. This mode lets us do that, so the MPM can be
|
||
fixed.
|
||
|
||
* htpasswd blindly processes the file you give it, and does no
|
||
sanity checking before totally corrupting whatever file it was
|
||
you thought you had. It should check the input file and bail
|
||
if it finds non-comment lines that do not contain exactly 1
|
||
':' character.
|
||
Message-ID: <20020217150457.A31632@clove.org>
|
||
|
||
* 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.
|
||
If you can provide evidence that it can be reproduced
|
||
outside of httpd-test, then it's a showstopper. I
|
||
think it's a perl or a httpd-test problem."
|
||
Not a showstopper: Justin
|
||
|
||
* 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>
|
||
|
||
* There is a bug in how we sort some hooks, at least the pre-config
|
||
hook. The first time we call the hooks, they are in the correct
|
||
order, but the second time, we don't sort them correctly. Currently,
|
||
the modules/http/config.m4 file has been renamed to
|
||
modules/http/config2.m4 to work around this problem, it should moved
|
||
back when this is fixed. rbb
|
||
Justin says: "Is this really a showstopper? This has been here
|
||
forever. What's wrong? Does this have to do with
|
||
autoconf or m4?"
|
||
Not a showstopper: Justin, BrianP, trawick, gregames
|
||
|
||
* 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 the quickest fix for a 2.0 gold release.
|
||
Justin says: "Could we delay this for a point release or 2.1?"
|
||
Not a showstopper: justin, wrowe, trawick, stoddard, Jim, Ian, Aaron,
|
||
gregames
|
||
|
||
* 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
|
||
on dev@apr:
|
||
Message-ID: <20020111115006.K1529@clove.org>
|
||
|
||
* Try to get libtool inter-library dependency code working on AIX.
|
||
Message-ID: <cm3n10lx555.fsf@rdu163-40-092.nc.rr.com>
|
||
|
||
Justin says: If we get it working on AIX, we can enable this
|
||
on all platforms and clean up our build system
|
||
somewhat.
|
||
Jeff says: I thought I tested a patch for you sometime in
|
||
January that you were going to commit within a few
|
||
days.
|
||
|
||
* Handling of %2f in URIs. Currently both 1.3 and 2.0
|
||
completely disallow %2f in the request URI path (see
|
||
ap_unescape_url() in util.c). It's permitted and passed
|
||
through in the query string, however. Roy says the
|
||
original reason for disallowing it, from five years ago,
|
||
was to protect CGI scripts that applied PATH_INFO to
|
||
a filesystem location and which might be tricked by
|
||
..%2f..%2f(...). We *should* allow path-info of the
|
||
form 'http://foo.com/index.cgi/path/to/path%2finfo'.
|
||
Since we've revamped a lot of our processing of path
|
||
segments, it would be nice to allow this, or at least
|
||
allow it conditionally with a directive.
|
||
|
||
* FreeBSD, threads, and worker MPM. All seems to work fine
|
||
if you only have one worker process with many threads. Add
|
||
a second worker process and the accept lock seems to be
|
||
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.
|
||
Message-ID: <3C2CC514.8EF3BED1@wapme-systems.de> (cygnus)
|
||
|
||
Justin says: So, FreeBSD-CURRENT and Cywin have the same
|
||
problem. Yum. If another platform has this
|
||
with worker, this becomes a showstopper.
|
||
Aaron says: I spent some time disecting this and have come to
|
||
the conclusion that it is not a problem in the worker MPM
|
||
(or at least, it is not isolated to a problem in worker).
|
||
I'll list some of the problems I'm seeing in case someone
|
||
else wants to pick up where I've left off:
|
||
- Delivery of just about any signal to one of the child
|
||
processes will send it into an infinite loop as well.
|
||
- Even though the parent is spinning out of control,
|
||
at first the child or children will appear to work
|
||
properly. At times it is possible to get it into a state,
|
||
however, where a request will hang until another concurrent
|
||
request "kicks" the first, at which point the second will
|
||
hang. My theory is that this has to do with the
|
||
pthread_cond_*() implementation in FreeBSD, but it's still
|
||
possible that it is in APR.
|
||
|
||
Justin adds: Oh, FreeBSD threads are implemented entirely with
|
||
select()/poll()/longjmp(). Welcome to the nightmare.
|
||
So, that means a ktrace output also has the thread
|
||
scheduling internals in it (since it is all the same to
|
||
the kernel). Which makes it hard to distinguish between
|
||
our select() calls and their select() calls.
|
||
*bangs head on wall repeatedly* But, some of the libc_r
|
||
files have a DBG_MSG #define. This is moderately helpful
|
||
when used with -DNO_DETACH. The kernel scheduler isn't
|
||
waking up the threads on a select(). Yum. And, I bet
|
||
those decrementing select calls have to do with the
|
||
scheduler. Time to brush up on our OS fundamentals.
|
||
|
||
* There is increasing demand from module writers for an API
|
||
that will allow them to control the server <20> la apachectl.
|
||
Reasons include sole-function servers that need to die if
|
||
an external dependency (e.g., a database) fails, et cetera.
|
||
Perhaps something in the (ever more abused) scoreboard?
|
||
rbb: I don't believe the scoreboard is the correct mechanism
|
||
for this. We already have a pipe that goes between parent
|
||
and child for graceful shutdown events, along with an API that
|
||
can be used to send a message down that pipe. In threaded MPMs,
|
||
it is easy enough to make that one pipe be used for graceful
|
||
and graceless events, and it is also easy to open that pipe
|
||
to both parent and child for writing. Then we just need to
|
||
figure out how to do graceless on non-threaded MPMs.
|
||
|
||
* Allow the DocumentRoot directive within <Location > scopes? This
|
||
allows the beloved (crusty) Alias /foo/ /somepath/foo/ followed
|
||
by a <Directory /somepath/foo> to become simply
|
||
<Location /foo/> DocumentRoot /somefile/foo (IMHO a bit more legible
|
||
and in-your-face.) DocumentRoot unset would be accepted [and would
|
||
not permit content to be served, only virtual resources such as
|
||
server-info or server-status.
|
||
This proposed change would _not_ depricate Alias.
|
||
|
||
* Win32: Rotatelogs sometimes is not terminated when Apache
|
||
goes down hard. FirstBill was looking at possibly tracking the
|
||
child's-child processes in the parent process.
|
||
OtherBill asks, wasn't this fixed?
|
||
stoddard: Not fixed. Shared scoreboard might offer a good
|
||
way for the parent to keep track of 'other child' processes
|
||
and whack them if the child goes down.
|
||
Other thoughts on walking the process chain using the NT kernel
|
||
have also been proposed on APR.
|
||
|
||
* Win32: Add a simple hold console open patch (wait for close or
|
||
the ESC key, with a nice message) if the server died a bad
|
||
death (non-zero exit code) in console mode.
|
||
Resolution: bring forward same ugly hacks from 1.3.13-.20
|
||
|
||
* Port of mod_ssl to Apache 2.0:
|
||
|
||
The current porting state is summarized in modules/ssl/README. The
|
||
remaining work includes:
|
||
(1) stablizing/optimizing the SSL filter logic
|
||
(2) Enabling SSL extentions
|
||
(3) Trying to seperate the https filter logic from mod_ssl -
|
||
This is to facilitate other modules that wish to use the https
|
||
filter or the mod_ssl logic or both as required.
|
||
|
||
* Eliminate unnecessary creation of pipes in mod_cgid
|
||
|
||
* Combine log_child and piped_log_spawn. Clean up http_log.c.
|
||
Common logging API.
|
||
|
||
* Document mod_file_cache.
|
||
|
||
* Platforms that do not support fork (primarily Win32 and AS/400)
|
||
Architect start-up code that avoids initializing all the modules
|
||
in the parent process on platforms that do not support fork.
|
||
|
||
* Win32: Migrate the MPM over to use APR thread/process calls. This
|
||
would eliminate some code in the Win32 branch that essentially
|
||
duplicates what is in APR.
|
||
|
||
* There are still a number of places in the code where we are
|
||
losing error status (i.e. throwing away the error returned by a
|
||
system call and replacing it with a generic error code)
|
||
|
||
* Mass vhosting version of suEXEC.
|
||
|
||
* All DBMs suffer from confusion in support/dbmmanage (perl script) since
|
||
the dbmmanage employs the first-matched dbm format. This is not
|
||
necessarily the library that Apache was built with. Aught to
|
||
rewrite dbmmanage upon installation to bin/ with the proper library
|
||
for predictable mod_auth_dbm administration.
|
||
Questions; htdbm exists, time to kill dbmmanage, or does it remain
|
||
useful as a perl dbm management example? If we keep it,
|
||
do we address the issue above?
|
||
|
||
* Integrate mod_dav.
|
||
Some additional items remaining:
|
||
- case_preserved_filename stuff
|
||
(use the new canonical name stuff?)
|
||
- find a new home for ap_text(_header)
|
||
- is it possible to remove the DAV: namespace stuff from util_xml?
|
||
|
||
* ap_core_translate() and its use by mod_mmap_static and mod_file_cache
|
||
are a bit wonky. The function should probably be exposed as a utility
|
||
function (such as ap_translate_url2fs() or ap_validate_fs_url() or
|
||
something). Another approach would be a new hook phase after
|
||
"translate" which would allow the module to munge what the
|
||
translation has decided to do.
|
||
Status: Greg +1 (volunteers), Ryan +1
|
||
|
||
* Explore use of a post-config hook for the code in http_main.c which
|
||
calls ap_fixup_virutal_hosts(), ap_fini_vhost_config(), and
|
||
ap_sort_hooks() [to reduce the logic in main()]
|
||
|
||
* read the config tree just once, and process N times (as necessary)
|
||
|
||
* (possibly) use UUIDs in mod_unique_id and/or mod_usertrack
|
||
|
||
* (possibly) port the bug fix for PR 6942 (segv when LoadModule is put
|
||
into a VirtualHost container) to 2.0.
|
||
|
||
* shift stuff to mod_core.h
|
||
|
||
* callers of ap_run_create_request() should check the return value
|
||
for failure (Doug volunteers)
|
||
|
||
* Win32: Get Apache working on Windows 95/98. The following work
|
||
(at least) needs to be done:
|
||
- Document warning that OSR2 is required (for Crypt functions, in
|
||
rand.c, at least.) This could be resolved with an SSL library, or
|
||
randomization in APR itself.
|
||
- Bring the Win9xConHook.dll from 1.3 into 2.0 (no sense till it
|
||
actually works) and add in a splash of Win9x service code.
|
||
|
||
* In order to use a DSO version of mod_ssl we have to link with
|
||
-lssl and -lcrypto. A workaround is in place right now where the
|
||
entire EXTRA_LIBS macro is being appended to the objects list, but
|
||
this is a hack. We should either revamp the APACHE_CHECK_SSL_TOOLKIT
|
||
autoconf function or come up with some other autoconf checks to
|
||
search for libssl and libcrypto and properly add them to mod_ssl's
|
||
link flags.
|
||
|
||
* Fix the worker MPM to use POD to kill child processes instead
|
||
of ap_os_killpg, regardless of how they should die. (Ryan Bloom)
|
||
|
||
* mod_cache: handle cache_control: no_cache "field_name" to enable
|
||
cacheing the response w/o header "field_name"
|
||
See RFC2616 section 14.9.1
|
||
|
||
* Scoreboard structures could be changed in the future such that
|
||
proper alignment is not maintained, leading to segfaults on
|
||
some systems. Cliff posted a patch to deal with this issue but
|
||
later recanted. See this message to dev@apr.apache.org:

Other bugs that need fixing:

|

* MaxRequestsPerChild measures connections, not requests.

||
"MaxConnectionsPerChild".

* Regex containers don't work in an intutive way
|
||
Status: No one has come up with an efficient way to fix this

||
completely.
|
||
OtherBill suggests: We at least seem to agree on eliminating
|
||
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
|
||
byterange stuff doesn't want the rest of the code to see the
|
||
multipart content-type; the other code should still think it is
|
||
dealing with the <orig_ct> stuff.
