no need for extra work for precision allocation to avoid 0-3 extra chars
note: callers passing precise buffer size for without padding will need
to be modified to pass a slightly larger buffer, e.g. mod_secdownload
When lighttpd is not configured to stream the response body,
lighttpd sends partial content with an incorrect Content-Length
to an HTTP/1.0 client if a backend sends Transfer-Encoding: chunked
in response to lighttpd HTTP/1.1 request (to backend), and the response
from the backend ends up truncated.
lighttpd could instead send an HTTP/1.0 502 Bad Gateway, but the
current implementation chooses to send the partial content. After all,
an HTTP/1.0 client is, well, HTTP/1.0, and so of limited intelligence.
remove http_chunk_append_file() and http_chunk_append_file_range()
callers should choose to use stat_cache_entry_open() for caching
or should open file and check sizes and ranges
add option to read config file from stdin using: -f -
(with "-" indicating to read config file from stdin)
This was already been possible using temporary files, unlinked and
passed to lighttpd as -f /proc/self/fd/XX (with XX as fd number)
on systems (or containers) in which /proc/self/fd/ is available
Note: using -f - is incompatible with one-shot mode (-1)
since one-shot mode expects stdin to be connected to the client
merge connection_accept() into network_server_handle_fdevent()
(possible since connection_accepted() was split out from
connection_accept() a long time ago)
network_server_handle_fdevent() checks max_conns and is the only
callers of connection_accept(), so connection_accept() does not
need to repeat the check.
faster to use http_header_request_set_ptr() and buffer_copy_string_len()
than to use http_header_request_set() and http_header_request_get()
check r->http_host for NULL instead of relying on buffer_copy_* to do so
buffer_commit() is called by routines which preallocate for operations
like read(). The caller must properly manage the memory. The checks
removed from buffer_commit() are too late.
special-case OPTIONS * and CONNECT in http_response_prepare()
http_response_prepare() is no longer revisited if r->handler_module
is set, so it is no longer necessary to fill r->physical.path for
CONNECT
improve HTTP/2 behavior when server.max-request-size reached
accept slightly more data than max-request-size if END_STREAM flag recvd
reduce rwin so that client may exceed server.max-request-size, but not
by much. (client might ignore and might send a firehose of data anyway)
accept up to 64k more data to potentially sink data that was in-flight
beyond the rwin, in order to allow server to send 413 Payload Too Large
before resetting the stream.
merge http_response_send_file 0-sized file special case
(historically was a short-circuit before Range handling,
but Range handling has been rewritten and moved elsewhere)
reuse cache lookup in common case of serving a static file
rather than repeating the stat_cache_entry lookup
(which is more work than memcmp() to re-check stat_cache_entry match)
