fixed dependencies for parallel build in mod_ssi_expr.c
|
|
|
|
|
|
- combo patch
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Tinker with kqueue(). Add a reset method so that the kqueue file
|
|
|
descriptor can be re-enabled after a fork(). Emulate the devpoll driver
|
|
|
in that adds and deletes are sent to the notification mechanism im-
|
|
|
mediately, which should cut down on phantom events. Use
|
|
|
ev->kq_results as a sliding window.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Change F_SETFD calls to use the preferred FD_CLOEXEC instead of 1.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Remove unnecessary fdevent fcntl handlers. It appears that the only
|
|
|
driver that needs one is Linux RT signals.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Quiet compiler warning about unused parameter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Set the close-on-exec flag for the /dev/poll and epoll_create() file
|
|
|
descriptors.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Return failure if /dev/poll could not be opened instead of logging
|
|
|
and continuing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Detect EAGAIN after writev() failures. FreeBSD sendfile() doesn't need
|
|
|
protection, as the man page says:
|
|
|
|
|
|
When using a socket marked for non-blocking I/O, sendfile() may send
|
|
|
fewer bytes than requested. In this case, the number of bytes success-
|
|
|
fully written is returned in *sbytes (if specified), and the error
|
|
|
EAGAIN is returned.

- mod_ssi

|
kqueue: events == FDEVENT_IN -> events & FDEVENT_IN (adam)
|
|
|
|
|
|
31.07.2004 22:07 - 1.2.4
|
|
|
- fdevents
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Test at configure time for kqueue() and <sys/event.h>
|
|
|
* Remove various hard-coded constants from event handlers
|
|
|
* Move maxfds into the event structure, and out of the
|
|
|
fdevent_*_init handlers. Event handlers can use the maxfds
|
|
|
member to size arrays.
|
|
|
* Various event structure renames to discourage clashes
|
|
|
* Remove extra (ignored) call to fdevent_event_next_fdndx() in
|
|
|
the main server loop.
|
|
|
* Wrestle with kqueue(). The implementation has to deal with
|
|
|
phantom events (for fds which have been deleted/closed), similar
|
|
|
to the Linux RT signals code. Like the RT code, it maintains a
|
|
|
bitmask of active fds. After a successful call to kevent(), the
|
|
|
code will compress/overwrite dead events. The other annoyance is
|
|
|
that the handler must track the event filter for each fd, even
|
|
|
though you cannot support both read and write filters for the same
|
|
|
fd in one kqueue. The handler maintains a separate bitmask for fd
|
|
|
filters (1 == EVFILT_IN, 0 == EVFILT_OUT).

- file-cache
|

|
|
|
- response headers
|
|
|
|
|
|
request headers that appear twice are grouped together like expected by
|
|
|
the CGI spec (concat with a ", ")
|
|
|
response headers behaved the same way but are not grouped anymore. They
|
|
|
stay seperated. Actually they are concated by \r\n<key>: <value> which is
|
|
|
the same in the end.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- file uploads
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
22.05.2004 12:55
|
|
|
- code cleanup
|
|
|
|
|
|
use the well-tested code from the write-queue as the base for the
|
|
|
read-queues and simplify the pipeline handling alot that way.
|
|

|
|
|
20.05.2004 15:08

- pipelining
|
|
|
|
|
|
fixed HTTP/1.1 pipelining which caused the problems with opera
|
|
|
|
|
|
- array handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
how did that bug survive such a long time ? a wrong compare function was
|
|
|
used in one case, but not the other.
|
|
|
|
|
|
15.05.2004 03:20
|
|
|
- secure and fast downloads
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a module which allows secure and fast downloading of files:
|
|
|
1. the application (.php, ...) controls the access to the files
|
|
|
2. the webserver is handling the transfer (and check the app generated
|
|
|
tokens)
|
|
|
|
|
|
the token is based on
|
|
|
- a secret
|
|
|
- a timestamp
|
|
|
- the filename
|
|
|
this means even if the token is is distributed by the user it will get
|
|
|
invalid after a given timeout (default 60 seconds)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- errorfiles
|
|
|
|
|
|
check for errorfiles before using them
|
|

|
|
|
- fdevent handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a more generic callback interface to the fdevent structures which
|
|
|
simplifies the writing of plugins. this might destabilize lighttpd for a
|
|
|
while
|
|
|
|
|
|
- cgi
|
|
|
|
|
|
fixed header parsing of the header is sent in chunks and the terminator is

|
|
sent in a single chunk

|
|
|
- Expect: Handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
added incomplete support for Expect: 100-continue (RFC 2616 8.2.3) by
|
|
|
sending always 417 for every Expect-request (see 14.20)
|
|
|
|
|
|
we have been blamed for not supporting it:
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
patches from E.Rodichev:
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. CONTENT_LENGTH
|
|
|
"If no data are attached, then this metavariable is either NULL or not
|
|
|
defined".
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. QUERY_STRING
|
|
|
If the Script-URI does not include a query component, the QUERY_STRING
|
|
|
metavariable MUST be defined as an empty string ("").
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Doubling of REMOTE_ADDR removed.

- FastCGI
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
- chunk-encoding
|
|
|
|
|
|
the generated HEX strings where broken since the 1.1.8
|
|
|
(this effected all HTTP/1.1 requests without Content-Length like FastCGI-PHP)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- code cleanup
|
|
|
|
|
|
patches from adam:
|
|
|
* malloc + memset -> calloc
|
|
|
* sizeof(int) -> sizeof(<variable>)
|
|
|
* assign fd_set instead of memcpy()
|

|
|
16.04.2004 08:48 - 1.1.8
|
|
|
- code cleanup
|
|
|
|
|
|
don't reuse buffer > 64k (see settings.h)
|
|
|
|
|
|
added server.max-request-size to limit the maximum request-body size
|
|
|
(in kBytes)
|
|
|
|
|
|
don't accept HTTP-request headers larger then 32kBytes (see settings.h)
|
|
|
|
|
|
minor speed improvements in the request-parser
|
|
|
|
|
|
More cleanup patches from adam:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* change pre-ANSI C/valid C++ syntax for function declarations/definitions
|
|
|
from using () to (void). Ex: int foo(); --> int foo(void);
|
|
|
* use static linkage as much as possible, to limit possible symbol
|
|
|
collisions
|
|
|
* whack more unneeded variables
|
|
|
* try and prevent any errno clobbering by storing the old errno value before
|
|
|
any subsequent system calls, and restoring before function exit.
|
|
|
* change printf syntax for unsigned variables from %d to %u
|
|
|
|
|
|
15.04.2004 18:41
|
|
|
- code cleanup
|
|
|
|
|
|
handle all int != size_t cases in fcgi.c correctly
|
|
|
|
|
|
check headerfields to have a value
|
|
|
|
|
|
handle both EINVAL cases of writev() before the can occur
|
|
|
|
|
|
limit content-length to SSIZE_MAX
|
|
|
disallow negative content-length
|
|
|
|
|
|
the usage of ltostr() has been reduced to the minimum in favour of
|
|
|
buffer_/append|copy)_(long|off_t)
|
|
|
|
|
|
dropped ultostr() and ultohex() in favour of buffer_*

13.04.2004 20:48
|
|
|
- test-cases
|
|
|
|
|
|
made the 'make check' target self-contained
|
|
|
|
|
|
In our case we have to call the targets in the following order:
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure ...
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
$ make check
|
|
|
|
|
|
because the path to the plugins is hardcoded in the binary itself
|
|
|
|
|
|
using
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure --prefix=/tmp/lighttpd-1.1.x/
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
|
|
will help if you don't really want to install before testing.

- portability
|
|
|
|
|
|
adam sent another patchset:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Wrap PCRE-specific data member access with an #ifdef
|
|
|
* Add const to pointer using return value from dlerror()
|
|
|
* Explicitly initialize pointer in the lemon parser to 0,
|
|
|
in order to catch missing else { } clause
|
|
|
* Use a time_t rather than an int for gmtime() call. On some
|
|
|
systems (including 32- and 64-bit SPARC) time_t is a long.

|
|
12.04.2004 17:00 - 1.1.7

|
|
|
|
|
|
added REMOTE_USER to the Server->FastCGI headers
|
|
|
removed HTTP_AUTHORIZATION from the Server->FastCGI headers
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
- cgi
|
|
|
|
|
|
if we don't get a partial HTTP-response-header send the content out as soon
|
|
|
as the cgi script is finished
|
|
|
|
|
|
12.04.2004 01:23
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
added bzip2 compression (supported by w3m)
|
|
|
|
|
|
12.04.2004 00:12
|
|
|
- configfile
|
|
|
|
|
|
add some usefull error messages if the tokenizer or the parser fail to

|
|

|
|
|
|
added --with-ldap and --disable-lfs to the configure options
|
|
|
|
|
|
11.04.2004 20:28
|
|
|
- 64bit offset size
|
|
|
|
|
|
disable linux-sendfile support for linux 2.4.x for now as it don't
|
|
|
support 64bit transfers
|
|
|
|
|
|
fixed all assignments on the path from the stat() to the Content-Length
|
|
|
HTTP-header
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
11.04.2004 11:48
|
|
|
- code cleanup
|
|
|
|
|
|
moved the config for the cgi-plugin from config.c to the plugin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
moved some buffers which were only used by a one or two plugin from
|
|
|
the server-structure to the plugins
|
|
|
|
|
|
keeping the plugins independent from the server-core is a 'good thing'
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.04.2004 19:06
|
|
|
- configfile parser
|
|
|
|
|
|
removed the leaks from the configfile parser
|
|
|
|
|
|
09.04.2004 23:15 - 1.1.6
|
|
|
- stricter http-parser
|
|
|
|
|
|
added line-folding although noone really seems to use it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
09.04.2004 18:42
|
|
|
- configfile parser
|
|
|
|
|
|
the hand-written configfile parser has been replaced by a LALR(1) one.
|
|
|
'lemon' from the sqlite guys has been used to generate the parser.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- by-host, by-url, by-file, by ...
|
|
|
|
|
|
$HTTP["url"] =~ "~$" {
|
|
|
access.deny = "all"
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
$HTTP["host"] =~ "." {
|
|
|
simple-vhost.server-root = "/home/weigon/wwwroot/servers/"
|
|
|
simple-vhost.default-host = "grisu.home.kneschke.de"
|
|
|
simple-vhost.document-root = "pages"
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
$HTTP["host"] == "incremental.home.kneschke.de" {
|
|
|
server.docroot = "/hasdasd"
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
at least the parser can handle it now. Currently there is no real support
|
|
|
for this context-based config-option. But the syntax and the parser are
|
|
|
done.
|
|
|
|

|
|
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ietf-http-wg/2004JanMar/0050.html
|
|
|
|
|
|
the HTTP-parser has been adjusted to be more correct when it comes to
|
|
|
request-header fieldnames
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
- -D_REENTRANT
|

|
|
|
|
- specfile
|
|
|
|
|
|
merge the RedHat and SuSE specfile with Matthijs
|
|
|
|
|
|
- 64bit file-offsets
|
|
|
|
|
|
moved the FILE_OFFSET_BITS settings from the config.h the Makefile to enable
|
|
|
64bit offsets the right way
|
|
|
|
|
|
06.04.2004 12:32
|
|
|
- mod_expire
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
05.04.2004 22:34
|
|
|
- solaris devpoll
|
|
|
|
|
|
forgot to provide the infrastructure to actually enable the devpoll event
|
|
|
handler. the same has been done for the freebsd-kqueue handler (which
|
|
|
doesn't work yet)
|
|
|
|
|
|
fixed the devpoll support while testing it on a real solaris box
|
|
|
|
|
|
05.04.2004 09:49
|
|
|
- debian

|
|
|
Another set of patches for Solaris from Adam
|
|
|
* Detect <sys/devpoll.h>
|
|
|
* Detect and include <sys/filio.h> for definition of FIONREAD
|
|
|
* Detect and link against the library exporting hstrerror
|
|
|
* Correct typo in SENDFILE_LIB
|
|
|
* Use__sun instead of __solaris__ for detecting operating system.
|
|
|
Please see http://predef.sourceforge.net/preos.html for more
|
|
|
detail
|
|
|
* Explicitly cast arguments to isalpha() and toupper() to unsigned
|
|
|
char. The man page says that the functions support the range of
|
|
|
an unsigned char, and EOF.
|
|
|
* Include <limits.h> and define UIO_MAXIOV as IOV_MAX for Solaris.

|
|
|

|
|
|
- read-write + mmap-write
|
|
|
- linux-sendfile
|
|
|
- freebsd-sendfile
|
|
|
- solaris-sendfilev (untested)
|
|
|
|
|
|
and memorybased chunks
|
|
|
- write
|
|
|
- writev
|
|
|
|
|
|
made TCP_CORK a 'global' flag around the write_chunkqueue-calls
|
|
|
|
|
|
the writev() support should improve the performance for all non-static
|
|
|
pages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
170 req/s against 158 req/s for the following script if writev() is used
|
|
|
instead of write()
|
|
|
|
|
|
<?php
|
|
|
|
|
|
for ($i = 0; $i < 1000; $i++) {
|
|
|
print $i."<br />\n";

|
|
|
* variables modified in signal handlers should be sig_atomic_t
|
|
|
* assert statements should not have side effects
|
|
|
* STD{IN,OUT,ERR}_FILENO preferred instead of {0,1,2}
|
|
|
* dieing --> dying
|
|
|
* SEGFAULT calls abort directly, instead of derefencing a NULL pointer
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
- portability
|
|

|
|
|
compiles fine now without any patches on IRIX
|

|
|
- hostname detection
|
|
|
|
|
|
reworked "get the hostname for HTTP/1.0 requests which don't specify a
|
|
|
Host: ..." to only query the name in this single case for the server side
|
|
|
of the connection
|
|
|
|
|
|
- errorlog handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
stderr is only used until the errorlog is init'ed
|
|
|
if no error-log is specified, syslog() is used
|
|
|
if cycling error-log fails, syslog() is used
|
|
|
|
|
|
- accesslog cycling
|
|
|
|
|
|
don't fall back to stdout anymore
|
|
|
|

|
|
- configure script
|
|
|
|
|
|
rewrote large parts of the lib/header detection of the configure script
|
|
|
|
|
|
20.03.2004 01:39
|
|
|
- fastcgi
|
|
|
|
|
|
as the docroot on external hosts might be different than the webserver
|
|
|
docroot it can now be specified in the config:
|
|
|
|
|
|
fastcgi.server = ( ".php" =>
|
|
|
( "grisu" =>
|
|
|
(
|
|
|
"host" => "192.168.2.41",
|
|
|
"docroot" => "/home/jan/servers/",
|
|
|
"port" => 1026
|
|
|
)
|
|
|
)
|
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
|
|
a huge internal cleanup in the config handling made the code more readable.
|
|
|
some more warnings and error checking should track most of the config
|
|
|
errors for the fastcgi plugin
|
|
|
|
|
|
19.03.2004 12:34
|
|
|
- external patches
|
|
|
|
|
|
Matthijs van der Klip submitted three nice patches:
|
|
|
- turn off writing in mod_status if status.rrd-reports is set to disable
|
|
|
- fix for a debug message
|
|
|
- get the hostname for HTTP/1.0 requests which don't specify a Host: ...
|
|
|
- rc-script for RedHat
|
|
|
|
|
|
- documentation
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a documentation section about authentification
|
|
|
- doc/authentification.txt
|
|
|
|
|
|
19.03.2004 05:11
|
|
|
- optimizations
|
|
|
|
|
|
implemented special versions of
|
|
|
- strcasecmp (array_strcasecmp)
|
|
|
- isdigit, isalpha, isalnum (light_*)
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a faster check for a finished header
|
|
|
|
|
|
after disabling all modules it is still possible to get 20 kreq/s.
|
|
|
|
|
|
15.03.2004 19:45 - 1.1.1
|
|
|
- localizer server
|
|
|
|
|
|
added the localizer-server module to the code
|
|
|
|
|
|
- chunked-encoding
|
|
|
|
|
|
Apple's Safari or HTTP-Handler doesn't handle chunked-extensions defined by
|
|
|
RFC 2616 correctly and doesn't ignore them. Disabled the chunked-extension
|
|
|
which were just used for debugging purposes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
07.03.2004 12:20
|
|
|
- optimization
|
|
|
|
|
|
moved the checks if a plugins support a given function from the dispatcher
|
|
|
(plugins_call) to plugins_call_init() to do the check only once.
|
|
|
|
|
|
equalized the plugins functions to only two types:
|
|
|
SERVER_FUNC()
|
|
|
CONNECTION_FUNC()
|
|
|
|
|
|
replaced all handwritten plugin_call-handlers with macros
|
|
|
|
|
|
made all plugin-functions 'static'
|
|
|
|
|
|
with all plugins loaded we are at 15kreq/s gain
|
|
|
without any plugin loaded at 16kreq/s
|
|
|
|
|
|
before the change we were at 13kreq/s
|
|
|
|
|
|
06.03.2004 21:13
|
|
|
- compilation fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
fixed some warnings on FreeBSD and NetBSD by adding
|
|
|
#include <netinet/in.h>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ifdef'ed a pcre-entry in base.h
|
|
|
|
|
|
remove #define _XOPEN_SOURCE from http_auth.c for IRIX
|
|
|
crypt() on Linux needs _XOPEN_SOURCE
|
|
|
|
|
|
06.03.2004 19:18 - 1.1.0
|
|
|
- authentification
|
|
|
|
|
|
added htpasswd and htdigest backends to work against user-files generated
|
|
|
by htpasswd and htdigest.
|
|
|
|
|
|
for basic auth:
|
|
|
- plain
|
|
|
- htpasswd (crypt only)
|
|
|
- htdigest
|
|
|
|
|
|
for digest auth:
|
|
|
- plain
|
|
|
- htdigest
|
|
|
|
|
|
06.03.2004 17:35
|
|
|
- authentification
|
|
|
|
|
|
check the method in the authorization header againt the configured method
|
|
|
|
|
|
06.03.2004 14:54
|
|
|
- hostname parsing
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a RFC-2396 conforming "Host:" parser
|
|
|
added 17 checks for the parser
|
|
|
|
|
|
06.03.2004 10:25
|
|
|
- configuration
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a warning for unknown configuration variables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
dropped the 'specific-for.url' ideas for now as it is not known yet how to
|
|
|
implement it the right way
|
|
|
|
|
|
renamed some config-variables to reflect there actual meaning
|
|
|
- server.host -> server.bind
|
|
|
- server.virtual-* -> simple-vhost.*
|
|
|
- server.userid -> server.username
|
|
|
- server.groupid -> server.groupname
|
|
|
- server.docroot -> server.document-root
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
05.03.2004 15:36
|
|
|
- fastcgi
|
|
|
|
|
|
internals: moved all mod_fastcgi settings from the global struct to the
|
|
|
plugin itself
|
|
|
|
|
|
- vhosting
|
|
|
|
|
|
got a patch for enhanced virtualhosting from christian kruse -> mod_evhost
|
|
|
|
|
|
moved the virtual hosting config (server.virtual-*) to it's own module
|
|
|
called mod_simple_vhost
|
|
|
|
|
|
23.02.2004 10:06
|
|
|
- configfile
|
|
|
|
|
|
rearragned the config-file structure again to be able to add settings for
|
|
|
a given URL, Host, Filename, ...
|
|
|
This change affects some config-options directly (access.deny,
|
|
|
url.rewrite, url.redirect, virtual-hosting, ...)
|
|
|
|
|
|
added 'specific-for.url' for url specific config settings
|
|
|
|
|
|
- digest auth
|
|
|
|
|
|
FIX: md5-sess type
|
|
|
|
|
|
seperate the auth-backend stuff
|
|
|
|
|
|
13.02.2004 22:23 - lighttpd 1.0.3
|
|
|
- content-length + POST
|
|
|
|
|
|
FIX: If header and content didn't fit into one single packet the rest of
|
|
|
the content was not read correctly
|
|
|
|
|
|
13.02.2004 01:07
|
|
|
- content-length + POST
|
|
|
|
|
|
the check for content-length on a POST request vanished somehow in one of
|
|
|
the previous releases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- header search
|
|
|
|
|
|
FIX: the search for header fields was up to now case-sensitive. Now it is
|
|
|
like required by the standard case-in-sensitive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- browser bugs
|
|
|
|
|
|
w3m 0.2.5 adds an additional \r\n at the end of the POST requests which is
|
|
|
handled now
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.02.2004 10:12
|
|
|
- start script
|
|
|
|
|
|
took the suse rc-skeleton which states to be LSB compliant and modified it
|
|
|
for lighttpd needs
|
|
|
|
|
|
09.02.2004 11:48
|
|
|
- HEAD requests
|
|
|
|
|
|
FIX: HEAD requests for static files delived the content from the GET
|
|
|
request. (test case is added)
|
|
|
|
|
|
08.02.2004 15:53
|
|
|
- directory listings
|
|
|
|
|
|
FIX: the pathname has not encoded at all before it was transfered to the
|
|
|
browser. a proper url and html-encoding has been added.
|
|
|
|
|
|
added modification-time and filesize to the output
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a basic css for the virtual listings
|
|
|
|
|
|
07.02.2004 22:15 - lighttpd 1.0.2
|
|
|
- sample configfile
|
|
|
|
|
|
rearranged the config-file to have all the important options at the top
|
|
|
|
|
|
- docs
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a mod-rewrite options
|
|
|
|
|
|
- mod_accesslog
|
|
|
|
|
|
stdout is no longer used a default for the accesslog
|
|
|
|
|
|
- error-messages
|
|
|
|
|
|
the 404 is now reported in the error-log
|
|
|
|
|
|
07.02.2004 17:30
|
|
|
- configfile handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
if a key is used twice like
|
|
|
|
|
|
url.rewrite = ( "url1" => "url")
|
|
|
url.rewrite = ( "url2" => "url")
|
|
|
|
|
|
you get an error now. You have to write:
|
|
|
|
|
|
url.rewrite = ( "url1" => "url",
|
|
|
"url2" => "url")
|
|
|
|
|
|
31.01.2004 12:22 - lighttpd 1.0.1
|
|
|
- log cycling
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a sighup-handler to the plugin interface and fixed the log-cycling
|
|
|
for access-logs
|
|
|
|
|
|
- portability
|
|
|
|
|
|
disabled the interval-time optimization on IRIX
|
|
|
|
|
|
- documentation
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a lot of new documentation to README
|
|
|
|
|
|
31.01.2004 10:59
|
|
|
- status module
|
|
|
|
|
|
added two new options rrd-dir and rrd-reports:
|
|
|
|
|
|
rrd-reports = (boolean) # enables RRD-reports
|
|
|
rrd-dir = (string) # path for the daily status-files
|
|
|
|
|
|
fixed the "status-files in /"-bug this way
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
22.01.2004 13:38 - lighttpd 1.0.0
|
|
|
- simple docroot
|
|
|
|
|
|
fixed handling of docroots if virtual-host is disabled
|
|
|
|
|
|
27.12.2003 11:12
|
|
|
- license handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
added the first interface to license handling.
|
|
|
|
|
|
25.12.2003 23:48
|
|
|
- protability
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verified again that the code compiles and runs cleanly on Linux, FreeBSD,
|
|
|
NetBSD and IRIX
|
|
|
|
|
|
compiling with gcc and the option -pedantic works fine
|
|
|
compiling with mipspro cc works fine, too
|
|
|
|
|
|
- tests
|
|
|
|
|
|
added some more tests: 39 tests
|
|
|
|
|
|
25.12.2003 16:01
|
|
|
- protability
|
|
|
|
|
|
some compile fixes for FreeBSD have been applied and a new switch has been
|
|
|
added to choose between IPv4 and IPv6 on FreeBSD.
|
|
|
(cmdline: -6, configfile: server.use-ipv6)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- packaging
|
|
|
|
|
|
cleaned up the specfile for building RPMs
|
|
|
|
|
|
21.12.2003 01:00
|
|
|
- authorization
|
|
|
|
|
|
brought basic and digest auth back to life. this module as the last one
|
|
|
which had to be updated after the config-file changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
- test harness framework
|
|
|
|
|
|
add 3 tests for basic auth
|
|
|
|
|
|
20.12.2003 22:10
|
|
|
- compression
|
|
|
|
|
|
added gzip compression (gzip-header + deflate + crc)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- test harness framework
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a 22 tests to verify the correct behaviour of lighttpd
|
|
|
|
|
|
- request parsing
|
|
|
|
|
|
GET http://www.yahoo.com/ HTTP/1.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
is handled now as
|
|
|
|
|
|
GET / HTTP/1.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
- plugins
|
|
|
|
|
|
moved FastCGI and CGI handling into modules which can be loaded at run-time
|
|
|
|
|
|
17.12.2003 13:18
|
|
|
- compression
|
|
|
|
|
|
the directory structure is now build automaticly
|
|
|
|
|
|
15.12.2003 01:00
|
|
|
- compression
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a compression cache to the compression module (mod_compress)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Vary: Accept-Encoding is set now as it influences to delivered stream of
|
|
|
bytes. This is important for caches.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.12.2003 00:24
|
|
|
- config files
|
|
|
|
|
|
a new config-file format is ready for the final release of lighttpd.
|
|
|
|
|
|
it supports:
|
|
|
|
|
|
server.docroot = "string"
|
|
|
server.host = integer
|
|
|
server.modules = ( "string", "string" )
|
|
|
server.mimetypes = ( "key" => "value" )
|
|
|
server.complex = ( "key" => ( "string", integer ),
|
|
|
"string",
|
|
|
integer )
|
|
|
|
|
|
the syntax should look familar to all who worked with Perl or PHP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
config-file handling has been seperated into a parser and a lexer. Both
|
|
|
are currently written by hand and will propably be rewritten into bison +
|
|
|
flex if time permits. But that would be a cosmetical change.
|
|
|
|
|
|
05.12.2003 03:07
|
|
|
- status-page
|
|
|
|
|
|
improved the status page to display
|
|
|
- the current connection-stati
|
|
|
- average throughput over 5 seconds
|
|
|
(requests/s and output-bound traffic)
|
|
|
|
|
|
now you can see what is going on in the server
|
|
|
|
|
|
- access-log
|
|
|
|
|
|
the accesslog is now a module and can be disabled by just removing the
|
|
|
plugin from the list of loaded plugins
|
|
|
|
|
|
04.12.2003 16:18
|
|
|
- chroot-ing
|
|
|
|
|
|
how-to: using chroot
|
|
|
|
|
|
- chroot to /home/www/
|
|
|
- docroot at /servers/<hostname>/pages/
|
|
|
- defaulthost www.example.org
|
|
|
|
|
|
e.g. (external view)
|
|
|
/home/www/servers/www.example.org/pages/index.html
|
|
|
|
|
|
(in chroot)
|
|
|
/servers/www.example.org/pages/index.html
|
|
|
|
|
|
config:
|
|
|
|
|
|
chroot /home/www/
|
|
|
userid wwwrun
|
|
|
groupid nogroup
|
|
|
|
|
|
virtual-server-root /servers/
|
|
|
virtual-server-default-host www.example.org
|
|
|
virtual-server-docroot /pages/
|
|
|
|
|
|
The FastCGI process is living outside this chroot definition as it is
|
|
|
started seperatly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
01.12.2003 02:06
|
|
|
- cleanup
|
|
|
|
|
|
in preparation for the first stable release some internals had to be
|
|
|
cleaned up. Basicly it was a cleanup of workflow of the creation of the
|
|
|
response-header. All modules can use a clean interface for this purpose
|
|
|
now. This is espacially usefull for all modules which have to pass some
|
|
|
HTTP-headers to the client.
|
|
|
|
|
|
29.11.2003 22:22
|
|
|
- modules
|
|
|
|
|
|
finally moved the modules to shared libraries and cleaned up some code
|
|
|
path to become more readable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
So far we have:
|
|
|
|
|
|
mod_rewrite
|
|
|
mod_redirect
|
|
|
mod_access
|
|
|
mod_auth
|
|
|
mod_cache
|
|
|
mod_chat
|
|
|
mod_status
|
|
|
mod_maps
|
|
|
|
|
|
28.11.2003 18:16
|
|
|
- redirects
|
|
|
|
|
|
as lighttpd supports url-rewriting redirection was a few lines of new code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
redirect ^/wishlist/(.+) http://jan.kneschke.de/wishlist/$1
|
|
|
|
|
|
rewrite ^/wishlist/(.+) /new/wishlist/$1
|
|
|
|
|
|
28.11.2003 17:00
|
|
|
- signal stuff
|
|
|
|
|
|
setitimer is used to send a event every second to call time() only once a
|
|
|
second. another system call which has been remove from the main-loop.
|
|
|
|
|
|
sending HUP to lighttpd will close and re-open the logfiles. this is used
|
|
|
for cycling logfiles.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#! /bin/sh
|
|
|
|
|
|
###
|
|
|
#
|
|
|
# a simple logfile rotator for lighttpd
|
|
|
#
|
|
|
|
|
|
DATE=`date +"%Y%m%d-%H%M"`
|
|
|
LPID=`pidof lighttpd`
|
|
|
mv access.log access.log.${DATE}
|
|
|
kill -HUP ${LPID}
|
|
|
gzip access.log.${DATE}
|
|
|
|
|
|
27.11.2003 01:07
|
|
|
- native win32 port
|
|
|
|
|
|
a first attempt for a native win32 has been done. For now mingw is the
|
|
|
base for the development as it provides a basic unix-like framework for
|
|
|
building native win32 applications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
the most internal files have been ported and the over all progress is
|
|
|
going well. At the end this will just be a prove of concept.
|
|
|
|
|
|
26.11.2003 01:17
|
|
|
- access denied
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a access-deny filter to block specific urls like
|
|
|
|
|
|
access-deny ~
|
|
|
access-deny .inc
|
|
|
|
|
|
17.11.2003 01:06
|
|
|
- bug fixing
|
|
|
|
|
|
a fstat() on a opened fd which has changed reports wrong the file-info.
|
|
|
Using stat() again helps to solve this problem.
|
|
|
|
|
|
the sig-io version doesn't suffer from this problem.
|
|
|
|
|
|
the etags are now used for verifing file-cache-entries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- chat
|
|

- optimizing
|
|
|
|
|
|
added a buffer_equal_reverse function which is optimized version of strcmp
|
|
|
which is going backwards as pathnames are often the same for in the first
|
|
|
bytes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
wrote a one-pass parser for the request-header. The combination of
|
|
|
strstr(..., "\r\n") to seperate lines and strchr(..., ':') to seperate
|
|
|
keys from values more or less touched every byte twice.
|
|
|
|
|
|
we are still at 18.000 req/s for 4kb keep-alive requests even with etags
|
|
|
and handling all header fields.

|
|
|

added a new module-hook after the basic-init of the module for handling

|
|
|
db-connections, compiling regexes, ...)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- cache
|
|
|
|
|
|
use turckmm-cache 2.4.3 to get some numbers for the php-latency:
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/sbin/ab -n 10000 -c 10 http://alba.home.kneschke.de:1025/index.php
|
|
|
|
|
|
handling the cache-decision and the cache-hit in php:
|
|
|
|
|
|
cache-miss: 100% (-> $version = 0)
|
|
|
|
|
|
plain : 108.13 req/s
|
|
|
turckmm-cache: 218.39 req/s
|
|
|
|
|
|
cache-hit: 100% (-> $version = 1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
plain : 164.45 req/s
|
|
|
turckmm-cache: 653.98 req/s
|
|
|
|
|
|
handling the cache-decision and the cache-hit in the server:
|
|
|
|
|
|
cache-hit: 100%, but using index.cml
|
|
|
|
|
|
cml: 4918.84 req/s (no keep-alive)
|
|
|
cml: 6901.31 req/s (keep-alive)
|
|
|
|
|
|
cache-miss: 100%, but using index.cml
|
|
|
|
|
|
plain : 108.39 req/s
|
|
|
turckmm-cache: 217.84 req/s
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusion:
|
|
|
- there is no loss in the cache-miss case through the cml-handling
|
|
|
- the cache-hit case can be improved dramaticly with lighttpd-cache
|
|
|
- turckmm-cache improves the cache-miss case alot

20.10.2003 00:40
|
|
|
- cache
|
|
|
|
|
|
the first 'real-life' test showed dramatic improvements in the req/s
|
|
|
handling.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The basic idea was to move the decision if a php-page can be taken from
|
|
|
the cache from the php-code to the webserver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
See here why this is a good thing:
|
|
|
|
|
|
the quite common code which works for http://jan.kneschke.de/ is using
|
|
|
templates and is quite static, but depends on 4 external files (the
|
|
|
menu-structure, the template, the current content, the class-file).
|
|
|
|
|
|
the index-file is always:
|
|
|
|
|
|
include_once "jk.inc";
|
|
|
|
|
|
$v = new view();
|
|
|
print $v->get(array(array ("file" => "content.html")));
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is more or less the same for all pages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This basic setup can deliver 100 requests/s.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The next step has:
|
|
|
- application bases caching
|
|
|
|
|
|
as we know that each pages depends on those 4 files, you can check if they
|
|
|
have been modified since the last request and deliver the content from the
|
|
|
cache otherwise.
|
|
|
|
|
|
this increased the throughput to 150 req/s. (cache-hit ratio 100%)
|
|
|
|
|
|
The next logic step is to move the decision-making process out of the PHP
|
|
|
code as PHP is to slow for the cache-hit path:
|
|
|
|
|
|
a CML (Cache-Markup-Language) has been written which describes the whole
|
|
|
decision process which has been written in PHP-code before:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
output.content-type text/html
|
|
|
|
|
|
output.include _cache.html
|
|
|
|
|
|
trigger.handler index.php
|
|
|
|
|
|
trigger.if file.mtime("../lib/php/menu.csv") > file.mtime("_cache.html")
|
|
|
trigger.if file.mtime("templates/jk.tmpl") > file.mtime("_cache.html")
|
|
|
trigger.if file.mtime("content.html") > file.mtime("_cache.html")
|
|
|
|
|
|
if one of the 'trigger.if' statements is true the 'trigger.handler' is
|
|
|
called to generate the pages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
if none of the them is trigger the files from 'output.include' are sent to
|
|
|
the browser with content-type specified in the first line:
|
|
|
|
|
|
The result was very 'promissing':
|
|
|
|
|
|
5900 req/s with keep-alive
|
|
|
3800 req/s without keep-alive
|
|
|
|
|
|
(both for a cache-hit ratio of 100%)
|
|
|
|
|
|
for keep-alive this is factor <b>59</b> against the plain un-cached
|
|
|
version and still <b>39</b> againt the php-cache-version which is doing
|
|
|
exactly the same.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Time for party. :)

19.10.2003 - 18:55
|
|
|
- cache
|
|
|
|
|
|
the handling of functions has been improved. they are now 'plugable'. just
|
|
|
the dlopen() stuff is missing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
a new datatype has been added: the string
|
|
|
|
|
|
this makes it possible to evaluate something like:
|
|
|
|
|
|
trigger.if unix.time.now() - file.mtime("head.html") > 30
|
|
|
trigger.if mysql.query("SELECT count(*) " + \
|
|
|
" FROM structure AS struc, session AS sess " + \
|
|
|
" WHERE struct.user = sess.user" + \
|
|
|
" AND sess.id = \"" + mysql.escape("ab\"c") + "\"")
|
|
|
|
|
|
you see:
|
|
|
- string operations (concat)
|
|
|
- handing of escape-sequences
|
|
|
- functions
|
|
|
- comparisions
|
|
|
|
|
|
18.10.2003 - 13:39
|
|
|
- cvs
|
|
|
|
|
|
imported everything into the cvs server which makes the whole revision
|
|
|
handler a lot easier. The CVS server was up all the time but not used.
|
|
|
Importing required 5 minutes of work which included merge the freebsd and
|
|
|
the linux tree.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- compilers + platforms
|
|
|
|
|
|
on a regular various compilers and platform are check to compile with with
|
|
|
the current code base:
|
|
|
|
|
|
platform | os | compiler | state
|

- e-tags and friends
|
|
|
|
|
|
in preparation for the php-conference at the begin of november in
|
|
|
frankfurt/main the server has the support some more caching/proxy tags
|
|
|
like:
|
|
|
- E-Tag (14.19) [done]
|
|
|
- If-Match (14.24)
|
|
|
- If-None-Match (14.26) [done]
|
|
|
- If-Range (14.27)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Section (13.3.3) binds them together. [RFC 2616]
|
|
|
|
|
|
using lxr.kde.org and lxr.mozilla.org revealed that
|
|
|
- konqui only uses if-none-match
|
|
|
- mozilla uses if-none-match and if-range
|
|
|
|
|
|
it looks like it isn't that easy to trigger the if-range case.
|
|
|
|
|
|
As ulf suggested the etag is a hash of file-size, inode-number and mtime.
|

- fd-caching
|

ulf just phoned me ask proposed the free the cache more agressivly in case

|
|
|
a 'leak generator' in the chunk-api.
|
|
|
|
|
|
the last few leaks were just some missing free()'s at the end of the
|
|
|
program run which would have been freed anyway.
|
|
|
|
|
|
at the end valgrind couldn't find any missing free()'s.

- FastCGI
|

|
|
reduced the number of system calls for FastCGI to WebServer to 2 calls per
|
|
|
fd-event. (ioctl() + read())
|
|
|
|
|
|
this has no direct effect of the performance of the server, but improves
|
|
|
the possible througput of the load-balancer.

load-balancing was enabled.
|

if a php is run on the load-balancer it has to get a lower priority than

- gigE
|
|
|
|
|
|
Last week 3 RTL8169S gigE cards arrived and were installed in the
|
|
|
test-framework.
|
|
|
|
|
|
They are very cheap (20 Euros) and are a good start for a low-level
|
|
|
benchmark network.
|
|
|
|
|
|
First result show us:
|
|
|
|
|
|
48 Mb/s with ab.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The webserver and the test-server are equipped with a 2000+ AMD CPU. The
|
|
|
system load 95%, user load is 3%, the rest is idle on both plattforms.
|
|
|
|
|
|
After some calculations at gets clear that there are various bottlenecks:
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. The PCI-Bus (32bit/33Mhz) can only transfer 133Mb/s
|
|
|
- 48 Mb/s TCP-Traffic results in 55Mb/s Ethernet-Traffic (verified with
|
|
|
slurm) [outgoing]
|
|
|
- there is about 10Mb/s incomming traffic at the PCI bus which the
|
|
|
requests
|
|
|
- the rest of the devices at the PCI bus are eating the last few mb/s
|
|
|
2. IRQ-Handling
|
|
|
- There are reasons why the RTL8169S cards are so cheap
|
|
|
- they can't send jumbo-frames
|
|
|
- only 8k/64k buffers which results in a interrupt every 3 packets
|
|
|
- they are at least handling checksum offloading for ip, udp and tcp
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the end there is a need for new hardware to limit the throughput by the
|
|
|
Ethernet again.
|
|
|
- PCI-X, 64bit-PCI, ...
|
|
|
- 'real' gigE-Network cards
|
|
|
- ...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
BTW: 2.4.22 + the r8139 driver are very flacky and resulted in 3 lock-ups
|
|
|
for today.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In another test the dual-PPro-FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT machine has been used as
|
|
|
server with a gigE interface (re0) at has shown that the CPU is the limit
|
|
|
for this combination. The maximum thoughput was 7Mb/s.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Another small benchmark:
|
|
|
$ ab -n 1000 -c 10 http://192.168.2.41:<port>/lighttpd-20030925.tar
|
|
|
|
|
|
port | server | CPU Idle
|
|
|
------+-------<2D>---------+-----------
|
|
|

|
|
|
1026 | thttpd 2.23b1 | 75%

|

Calling 'ab' (apachebench) at grisu with the following paramters:

(strace is broken for accept() and gettimeofday(), syscall_393() is sendfile())
|
|
|
|
|
|
after entering the main-loop the webserver doesn't receive any new POLLIN
|
|
|
events at all for the next 10-15 seconds. Any connection-attempt within
|
|
|
the period is, as you can see in the tcpdump output, accepted by the
|
|
|
kernel and the received data is thrown away as the kernel sends a RST.
|
|
|
After those 10-15 seconds the application gets a POLLIN event for the
|
|
|
server socket and the normal data-transfer taken place for the next 4000
|
|
|
requests.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This behaviour is reproducable with thttpd 2.20c and the current lighttpd.

|
|
- localizer
|
|
|
|
|
|
ported the localizer-server application into a module for lighttpd. After
|
|
|
30 minutes the code was ported and funtional. This modules provides access
|
|
|
to the localizer-db by a HTTP-Interface and generates the response as
|
|
|
HTML, CSV and plain-text.
|
|
|
|
|
|
So far, the module-interface looks good and flexible enough.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7000 req/s is good enough too. Generating the HTML and querying the DB
|
|
|
needs some time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
22.09.2003 08:40
|
|
|
- modules
|
|
|
|
|
|
introduced a simple module interface which allow to hook into the process
|
|
|
of handling the requests. Basicly it allows to move the url-rewriter, the
|
|
|
auth-sub-system and the cache out of the main-code. The module-interface
|
|
|
will be extended to allow the cgi and the fastcgi sub-processes to be
|
|
|
moved into a module.
|
|
|
|
|
|
15.09.2003 09:36
|
|
|
- error-handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
fastcgi and cgi connections are now closed correctly if the corresponding
|
|
|
client-connection has died.

|
|
|
- cgi
|
|
|
|
|
|
finally streaming works with CGI, too
|
|
|
|
|
|
this enable support for cgiirc.sf.net and friends which use streaming as
|
|
|
there transport mechanism.
|
|
|
|
|
|
streaming has been verified with cgiirc-0.5.2.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- fdevents
|
|
|
|
|
|
there where some reports that sigio didn't work as expected. It just
|
|
|
reported no events at all. Looks like a known bug in the glibc on
|
|
|
those platforms.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using poll() instead solve the problems.

- rewrite
|
|
|
|
|
|
a pcre based rewrite engine has been integrated
|
|
|
|
|
|
- cgi
|
|
|
|
|
|
the file-based cgi interface has been replace by two pipes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
23.07.2003 13:29
|
|
|
- fdevents
|
|
|
|
|
|
the whole fd-event handling has been reworked and several smaller bugs
|
|
|
and design-errors have fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
sigio, poll() and select() are working fine again.
|
|
|
|
|
|
On IRIX 6.5 SIGIO could be used, but without further testing poll() is used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- cgi
|
|
|
CGI-support is still broken.

21.07.2003 18:46
|
|
|
- dnotify
|
|
|
|
|
|
using the F_NOTIFY feautre of the Linux 2.4.x kernel gives anothre nice
|
|
|
performance boost as lighttpd can cache the stat()'s the right way, now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
23009.66 @ 5-4k-k which means +10% against 30.06.2003 14:03
|
|
|
|
|
|
for 1000-4k-nok the performace nearly doubles: 3730.23 goes up to 6144.39

|
|
|
|
|

|
|
08.07.2003 10:48
|
|
|
- fileinfo-cache
|
|
|
|
|
|
A reallife test showed that the cache wasn't perfect at all as it made
|
|
|
lighttpd crash. This is fixed now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
30.06.2003 17:40
|
|
|
- lighttpd-bench
|
|
|
|
|
|
After some problems with other benchmarking tools for webservers the first
|
|
|
version of lighttpd-bench has been written.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It a revealed a nasty strange behaviour which was fixed by increasing the
|
|
|
listen-backlog from 5 to 1024.
|
|
|
|
|
|
30.06.2003 14:03
|
|
|
- fileinfo-cache
|
|
|
|
|
|
the fileinfo-cache has been relaxed a little bit and there are always 2
|
|
|
fstat()'s per file-request now. This isn't that dramatic:
|
|
|
|
|
|
21800.74 req/s is still a very good result (7-4k-k).
|
|
|
|
|
|
29.06.2003 03:29
|
|
|
- fileinfo-cache
|
|
|
|
|
|
a fileinfo cache has been added to reduce the number of system-calls to
|
|
|
stat and open a file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the releases before the same file was stat'ed at least 2 times plus a
|
|
|
stat on the docroot for each request. Now the stat()'s and the
|
|
|
corresponding open() + close() calls are cached and the number of system
|
|
|
calls has been reduced to the minimum:
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
In the end we have a new speed record:
|
|
|
|
|
|
(ab -c 8 -n 100000 http://192.168.2.10:1025/index.html with poll())
|
|
|
Requests per second: 23435.67 [#/sec] (mean)
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a speed increasement of 20-30% against the last internal benchmark.

|
|
|
|
|
|
the trigger.if directive is working fine. the basic algebra is done ( +,

|
|
|
&& and || including braces)
|
|
|

the actual decision is made be trigger.if which will be added tomorrow.

|
|
- sig-io
|
|
|
|
|
|
After several other smaller optimisations lighttpd performs better with
|
|
|
sig-io under high load:
|
|
|
|
|
|
sigio+poll poll
|
|
|
c1000-4k-nok : 2635.95 1643.39
|
|
|
c1000-4k-k : 7335.68 6788.87

|
c1000-100k-k : 3097.89 2080.73
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The user-space part has been optimized a lot. Now it is time to optimized
|
|
|
the number of context-switches between user and kernel-mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
user 0m0.180s
|

|
- sig-io is back again
|
|
|
|
|
|
and it works fine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
sigio (Realtime-Signals under Linux 2.4.x) sends one signal per event and
|
|
|
buffers the rest of the events in a kernel queue. If the is full a SIGIO
|
|
|
is sent and poll() gets all events at once for further processing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Currently the behaviour is a little bit strange:
|
|
|
- sig-io + poll() is good for non-keep-alive connections
|
|
|
- poll() for keep-alive connections
|
|
|
|
|
|
c1000-4k-nok: (1000 concurrent request, 4k filesize, no keepalive)
|
|
|
poll : 1521.38
|
|
|
sigio+poll: 2124.00
|
|
|
|
|
|
c1000-4k-k: (1000 concurrent request, 4k filesize, keepalive)
|
|
|
poll : 5882.35
|
|
|
sigio+poll: 1239.46
|
|
|
|
|
|
Very strange for now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
09.06.2003 23:59
|
|
|
- code-cleanup
|
|
|
|
|
|
the event-handling code has been rewritten to handle single events better
|
|
|
as they are expected from sig-io.
|
|
|
|
|
|
the fallback-mode of sig-io is broken now, but the normal poll() mode got
|
|
|
a 10% increasement in speed. This means the we are back the speed level of
|
|
|
20030308-0155 are as fast as zeus again.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Especially under higher load the current lighttpd performes better.

writing large files works now as expected. After removing the limit for

generated. that was missing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
321 of 10000 connections still have the wrong length. After that is fixed
|

it is time to start some benchmarks again.

|
|
|
|
as the overall processing cycle has been rearranged the overall figures
|
|
|
changed in minor ranges. c100-4k-k increased, *-100k-k decreased.
|
|
|
|
|
|
At least it still works.

|
- select()/poll()
|
|
|
|
|
|
implementate an abstration layer for fd-events (like eevry other webserver).
|
|
|
currently we support poll() and select().
|
|
|
|
|
|
This should bring us support for Mac OS X and propably Windows.

|
|
- configure
|
|
|
|
|
|
lighttpd can now be build without ssl-support even if openssl is installed
|
|
|
|
|
|
- protability
|
|
|
|
|
|
- on IRIX IPv6 is supported now out of the box
|
|
|
- for FreeBSD some missing haeders have been added
|
|

|
|
- pipelining
|
|
|
|
|
|
adding support for pipeling introduces a problem if the request-header
|
|
|
was broken. this has been fixed now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- unneccesary slashes
|
|
|
|
|
|
when building pathes from different portions of a string (e.g. docroot +
|
|
|
virt-server-docroot + request-uri) slashes where added for security and
|
|
|
simplicity. This resulted in up to 5 adjacent slashes which caused no harm
|
|
|
but looked strange. (fixed)
|
|
|
|
|
|
04.06.2003 09:57
|
|
|
- start/stop messages
|
|
|
|
|
|
the error-log contains the start and end-times of the lighttpd process,
|
|
|
now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- configfile
|
|
|
|
|
|
the config-file parser has been relaxed to accepts tabs instead of spaces.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- better error-handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
fixed a <a
|
|
|
href="http://bugs.php.net/?id=24009">bug in the FastCGI-SAPI of PHP</a>
|
|
|
|
|
|
if the fastcgi process dies or closes the connection unexpectedly we
|
|
|
return 500 now instead of closing the connection to the client.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Location
|
|
|
|
|
|
the CGI/1.1-rev-03 specification requires us to send Status 302 if a
|
|
|
Location-header is sent by the client and a Status-header is missing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- PATH_TRANSLATED
|
|
|
|
|
|
if PHP is compiled without --discard-path PATH_TRANSLATED has to be
|
|
|
provided.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
- directory listings
|
|
|
|
|
|
if a directory is requested and the directory doesn't contain a index-file
|
|
|
a directory-listing can be displayed. You have to enable directory-listings
|
|
|
in the config-file (directory-listings on)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- url-decoding
|
|
|
|
|
|
up to know urls where not decoded at all (%26 -> . and so on). This has
|
|
|
been added. Unicode isn't supported as we use 8-bit chars internally.
|

|
|
- pipelining
|
|
|
|
|
|
as Sascha required pipelining for his benchmarking tool it has been
|
|
|
implemented.
|
|
|
|
|
|
pipelining allows sending a bunch of requests at once without waiting for
|
|
|
the actual responses. This reduces the network-overhead and the
|
|
|
round-trip-time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- non-free()d memory
|
|
|
|
|
|
dmalloc helped to close some non-free()d memory. For the normal operation
|
|
|
this isn't important as only memory chunks which had to be free()d at the
|
|
|
end of the live-time of the lighttpd-process were not de-allocated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- partly-initialized variables
|
|
|
|
|
|
lighttpd wasn't initializing the main-structure which resulted in strange
|
|
|
behaviour in rare circumstances.
|
|
|

- benchmarks
|
|
|
|
|
|
after removing some useless internal copies we are more or less at the old
|
|
|
speed levels.
|
|
|
|
|
|
after adding virtual-hosts 10% of the performance were lost. Using less
|
|
|
memcpy() operations might add several other boosts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I've just checked how lighttpd compares to Zeus.
|
|
|

|
- cgi-variables
|
|
|
|
|
|
HTTP_HOST was missing for the cgi-module while the fcgi-module passed it
|
|
|
through to the handler. Fixed that.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- fcgi-errors
|
|
|
|
|
|
the connection to the fcgi was dropped and poll() reported an error, the
|
|
|
error wasn't reported to the client the right way.
|
|
|

|
|
- authorization
|
|
|
|
|
|
the first password-storage has been added:
|
|
|
|
|
|
[auth]
|
|
|
backend plan
|
|
|
plain-userfile <filename>
|
|
|
|
|
|
require /download/ user=jan|user=anom
|
|
|
http-auth /download/ "download archiv" digest
|
|
|
|
|
|
groups are prepared but not implemented. basic and digest are working fine.
