- http_method_buf() returns (const buffer *)
- comment out unused get_http_status_name()
- inline func for http_append_method()
config processing requires a persistent buffer for method on the
off-chance that the config performed a capturing regex match in
$HTTP["method"] condition and used it later (e.g. in mod_rewrite)
(Prior behavior using r->tmp_buf was undefined in this case)
parse $HTTP["remote-ip"] CIDR mask into structured data at startup
note: adds buffer_move() to configparser.y to reduce memory copying
for all config values, and is required for remote-ip to preserve the
structured data added after the config value string. (Alternatively,
could have normalized the remote-ip value after copying into dc->string)
reorder some code for better asm
proxy_set_Forwarded() sets multiple request headers, and does so prior
to walking all request headers to create request to backend. This is
done so that specific already-existing request headers from client are
overwritten (intentionally) in proxy_set_Forwarded().
Expect header is handled, but not expected since client-sent Expect
header is handled (and unset) in connection_handle_read_post_state()
refactor mod_auth_check_digest()
- smaller functions
- collect parsed Authorization header into http_auth_digest_params_t
- use string references rather than copying and modifying Authorization
dbi_conn_escape_string_copy() requires '\0'-terminated string.
While that is currently the case for strings in http_auth_info_t,
that will soon change, so consumers must use ai->username with ai->ulen,
and ai->realm with ai->rlen
reduce code duplication
make it easier to add new algos
mod_authn_file:
- leverage r->tmp_buf instead of temporary allocating buffer_init()
- mod_authn_file_htpasswd_basic()
- compare binary SHA1 (shorter) rather than base64 (longer)
- split crypt() from mod_authn_file_htpasswd_basic() to separate func
- apr_md5_encode() modifications for slightly better performance
clear etag in stat_cache_get_entry_open() after opening file
(in case a different caller used stat_get_get_entry() and then file
changed before being opened)
read file and use luaL_loadbuffer()
eliminate TOC-TOU race w/ independent stat() in stat_cache_get_entry()
restructure script_cache_get_script() into smaller funcs
This commit is a large set of code changes and results in removal of
hundreds, perhaps thousands, of CPU instructions, a portion of which
are on hot code paths.
Most (buffer *) used by lighttpd are not NULL, especially since buffers
were inlined into numerous larger structs such as request_st and chunk.
In the small number of instances where that is not the case, a NULL
check is often performed earlier in a function where that buffer is
later used with a buffer_* func. In the handful of cases that remained,
a NULL check was added, e.g. with r->http_host and r->conf.server_tag.
- check for empty strings at config time and set value to NULL if blank
string will be ignored at runtime; at runtime, simple pointer check
for NULL can be used to check for a value that has been set and is not
blank ("")
- use buffer_is_blank() instead of buffer_string_is_empty(),
and use buffer_is_unset() instead of buffer_is_empty(),
where buffer is known not to be NULL so that NULL check can be skipped
- use buffer_clen() instead of buffer_string_length() when buffer is
known not to be NULL (to avoid NULL check at runtime)
- use buffer_truncate() instead of buffer_string_set_length() to
truncate string, and use buffer_extend() to extend
Examples where buffer known not to be NULL:
- cpv->v.b from config_plugin_values_init is not NULL if T_CONFIG_BOOL
(though we might set it to NULL if buffer_is_blank(cpv->v.b))
- address of buffer is arg (&foo)
(compiler optimizer detects this in most, but not all, cases)
- buffer is checked for NULL earlier in func
- buffer is accessed in same scope without a NULL check (e.g. b->ptr)
internal behavior change:
callers must not pass a NULL buffer to some funcs.
- buffer_init_buffer() requires non-null args
- buffer_copy_buffer() requires non-null args
- buffer_append_string_buffer() requires non-null args
- buffer_string_space() requires non-null arg
note: etag buffer etag->ptr might be NULL (etag->used = etag->sze = 0)
so buffer will need to be extended, not truncated, in that case.
buffer_string_set_length() is typically used to truncate strings.
