This was previously used, but was incorrectly removed in 83d54192e97b
while removing old threads remnants. Instead of using it conditionally
when threads are not used, we now set in unconditionally, as even with
thread pools enabled we never call OpenSSL functions in threads.
This fixes resulting binary when using --with-openssl with OpenSSL 1.1.0+
and without -lpthread linked (notably on FreeBSD without PCRE).
OpenSSL now uses pthread_atfork(), and this requires -lpthread on Linux
to compile. Introduced NGX_LIBPTHREAD to add it as appropriate, similar
to existing NGX_LIBDL.
The module allows passing requests to upstream gRPC servers.
The module is built by default as long as HTTP/2 support is compiled in.
Example configuration:
grpc_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
Alternatively, the "grpc://" scheme can be used:
grpc_pass grpc://127.0.0.1:9000;
Keepalive support is available via the upstream keepalive module. Note
that keepalive connections won't currently work with grpc-go as it fails
to handle SETTINGS_HEADER_TABLE_SIZE.
To use with SSL:
grpc_pass grpcs://127.0.0.1:9000;
SSL connections use ALPN "h2" when available. At least grpc-go works fine
without ALPN, so if ALPN is not available we just establish a connection
without it.
Tested with grpc-c++ and grpc-go.
When clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) (or faster variants, _FAST on FreeBSD,
and _COARSE on Linux) is available, we now use it for ngx_current_msec.
This should improve handling of timers if system time changes (ticket #189).
Previously, capset(2) was called with the 64-bit capabilities version
_LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION_3. With this version Linux kernel expected two
copies of struct __user_cap_data_struct, while only one was submitted. As a
result, random stack memory was accessed and random capabilities were requested
by the worker. This sometimes caused capset() errors. Now the 32-bit version
_LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION_1 is used instead. This is OK since CAP_NET_RAW is
a 32-bit capability (CAP_NET_RAW = 13).
Previously included file sys/capability.h mentioned in capset(2) man page,
belongs to the libcap-dev package, which may not be installed on some Linux
systems when compiling nginx. This prevented the capabilities feature from
being detected and compiled on that systems.
Now linux/capability.h system header is included instead. Since capset()
declaration is located in sys/capability.h, now capset() syscall is defined
explicitly in code using the SYS_capset constant, similarly to other
Linux-specific features in nginx.
The capability is retained automatically in unprivileged worker processes after
changing UID if transparent proxying is enabled at least once in nginx
configuration.
The feature is only available in Linux.
In 2c7b488a61fb, IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT test was accidentally placed
between SO_BINDANY, IP_TRANSPARENT, and IP_BINDANY tests. Moved it after
these tests.
As per POSIX, basic regular expressions have no alternations, and the
interpretation of the "\|" construct is undefined. At least on MINIX
and Solaris grep interprets "\|" as literal "|", and not as an alternation
as GNU grep does. Removed such constructs introduced in f1daa0356a1d.
This fixes clang detection on MINIX.
The phase is added instead of the try_files phase. Unlike the old phase, the
new one supports registering multiple handlers. The try_files implementation is
moved to a separate ngx_http_try_files_module, which now registers a precontent
phase handler.
The http_rewrite module cannot be selected when http is disabled.
Fixed the PCRE check condition to avoid irrelevant check failure.
This is a regression from 4d874b4d82ed.

On Cygwin and NetBSD 7.0+ struct in_pktinfo has no ipi_spec_dst field, which
caused nginx compilation error. Now presence of this field is ensured by the
IP_PKTINFO feature test.
The problem was introduced by dbb0c854e308 (1.13.0).
Oracle Developer Studio 12.5 introduced GCC-compatible __sync builtins.
Unfortunately, these builtins are neither GCC-compatible (they generate
warnings when used with volatile), nor working (unexpectedly fail on
unpredictable combinations of code layout and compiler flags). As such,
the gcc builtin atomic operations configure test explicitly disabled when
compiling with Sun C.
Previously, the source IP address of a response UDP datagram could differ from
the original datagram destination address. This could happen if the server UDP
socket is bound to a wildcard address and the network interface chosen to output
the response packet has a different default address than the destination address
of the original packet. For example, if two addresses from the same network are
configured on an interface.
Now source address is set explicitly if a response is sent for a server UDP
socket bound to a wildcard address.
Some combinations of options might cause the builds with the
--with-stream option to break due to invalid value of the
STREAM_INCS make variable, e.g.
auto/configure \
--with-stream \
--with-http_perl_module=dynamic \
--without-http_memcached_module \
--without-http_empty_gif_module \
--without-http_browser_module \
--without-http_upstream_hash_module \
--without-http_upstream_ip_hash_module \
--without-http_upstream_least_conn_module \
--without-http_upstream_keepalive_module \
--without-http_upstream_zone_module \
Explicit initialization of ngx_module_libs and ngx_module_link
matches what we already do when processing mail modules, and
is also required after the next change.
OpenSSL 1.1.0 now uses normal "nmake; nmake install" instead of using
custom "ms\do_ms.bat" script and "ms\nt.mak" makefile. And Configure
now requires --prefix to be absolute, and no longer derives --openssldir
from prefix (so it's specified explicitly). Generated libraries are now
called "libcrypto.lib" and "libssl.lib" instead of "libeay32.lib"
and "ssleay32.lib". Appropriate tests added to support both old and new
variants.
Additionally, openssl/lhash.h now triggers warning C4090 ('function' :
different 'const' qualifiers), so the warning was disabled.
In Perl 5.8.6 the default was switched to use putenv() when used as
embedded library unless "PL_use_safe_putenv = 0" is explicitly used
in the code. Therefore, for modern versions of Perl it is no longer
necessary to restore previous environment when calling perl_destruct().
Dependencies of dynamic modules are added to NGX_ADDON_DEPS (and
it is now used for dynamic modules) to be in line with what happens
in case of static compilation.
To avoid duplication, MAIL_DEPS and STREAM_DEPS are no longer passed
to auto/module when these modules are compiled as dynamic ones. Mail
and stream dependencies are handled explicitly via corresponding
variables.
IPv6 now compiled-in automatically if support is found. If there is a need
to disable it for some reason, --with-cc-opt="-DNGX_HAVE_INET6=0" can be used
for this.
Previously flags passed by --with-ld-opt were not used when building perl
module, which meant hardening flags provided by package build systems were not
applied.
The ssl_preread module extracts information from the SSL Client Hello message
without terminating SSL. Currently, only $ssl_preread_server_name variable
is supported, which contains server name from the SNI extension.
This flag appeared in Linux 4.5 and is useful for avoiding thundering herd
problem.
The current Linux kernel implementation walks the list of exclusive waiters,
and queues an event to each epfd, until it finds the first waiter that has
threads blocked on it via epoll_wait().
This reduces the number of moving parts in ABI compatibility checks.
Additionally, it also allows to use OpenSSL in FIPS mode while still
using md5 for non-security tasks.
This parameter lets binding the proxy connection to a non-local address.
Upstream will see the connection as coming from that address.
When used with $remote_addr, upstream will accept the connection from real
client address.
Example:
proxy_bind $remote_addr transparent;
Added (RTLD_NOW | RTLD_GLOBAL) to dlopen() test. There is no RTLD_GLOBAL
on FreeBSD 2.2.9.
Added uint32_t test, with fallback to u_int32_t, similar to uint64_t one.
Added fallback to u_int32_t in in_addr_t test.
With these changes it is now possible to compile nginx on FreeBSD 2.2.9
with only few minor warnings (assuming -Wno-error).
Fixed a regression introduced in rev. 434548349838 that prevented
auto/types/sizeof and auto/types/typedef properly reporting autotest
source code to autoconf.err in case of test failure.
OPENSSL_config() deprecated in OpenSSL 1.1.0. Additionally,
SSL_library_init(), SSL_load_error_strings() and OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms()
are no longer available if OPENSSL_API_COMPAT is set to 0x10100000L.
The OPENSSL_init_ssl() function is now used instead with appropriate
arguments to trigger the same behaviour. The configure test changed to
use SSL_CTX_set_options().
Deinitialization now happens automatically in OPENSSL_cleanup() called
via atexit(3), so we no longer call EVP_cleanup() and ENGINE_cleanup()
directly.
Just using "cp" is incorrect, as it will overwrite old files
possibly used by OS, leading to unexpected effects. Changed
to "mv + cp", much like used for the main binary.
The "build" target introduced to do all build-related tasks, and
it is now used in Makefile and in objs/Makefile as a dependency for
the "install" target.
In particular, this resolves problems as observed with dynamic modules
by people trying to do "make install" without calling "make" first.
The install_sw target first appeared in OpenSSL 0.9.7e and is documented since
OpenSSL 1.0.0 as the way to install the OpenSSL software without documentation.
Before 7142b04337d6, it was possible to build the OpenSSL library
along with nginx, and link nginx statically with this library
(--with-openssl=DIR --with-ld-opt=-static --with-http_ssl_module).
This was broken on Linux by not adding -ldl after -lcrypto.
The fix also makes it possible to link nginx statically on Linux
with the system OpenSSL library, which never worked before.
Now we always set NGX_CC_NAME to "msvc", and additionally test compiler
version as reported by "cl" in auto/cc/msvc (the same version is also
available via the _MSC_VER define). In particular, this approach allows
to properly check for C99 variadic macros support, which previously was
not used with MSVC versions not explicitly recognized.
Now unneeded wildcards in NGX_CC_NAME tests for msvc removed accordingly,
as well as unused wildcards for owc and icc.
The auto/module script is extended to understand ngx_module_link=DYNAMIC.
When set, it links the module as a shared object rather than statically
into nginx binary. The module can later be loaded using the "load_module"
directive.
New auto/module parameter ngx_module_order allows to define module loading
order in complex cases. By default the order is set based on ngx_module_type.
3rd party modules can be compiled dynamically using the --add-dynamic-module
configure option, which will preset ngx_module_link to "DYNAMIC" before
calling the module config script.
Win32 support is rudimentary, and only works when using MinGW gcc (which
is able to handle exports/imports automatically).
In collaboration with Ruslan Ermilov.
This script simplifies configuration of additional modules,
including 3rd party ones. The script is extensible, and
will be used to introduce dynamic linking of modules in upcoming
changes.
3rd party module config scripts are called with ngx_module_link
preset to "ADDON" - this allows config scripts to call auto/module
without ngx_module_link explicitly defined, as well as testing if
new interface is in place if compatibility with older nginx versions
is desired.
In collaboration with Ruslan Ermilov.
Additionally, HTTP_HEADERS_FILTER_MODULE now added to HTTP_FILTER_MODULES.
This avoids explict use of modules at the later stages, now only module
lists are used. This will be needed in later patches.
Splits a request into subrequests, each providing a specific range of response.
The variable "$slice_range" must be used to set subrequest range and proper
cache key. The directive "slice" sets slice size.
The following example splits requests into 1-megabyte cacheable subrequests.
server {
listen 8000;
location / {
slice 1m;
proxy_cache cache;
proxy_cache_key $uri$is_args$args$slice_range;
proxy_set_header Range $slice_range;
proxy_cache_valid 200 206 1h;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:9000;
}
}
The function is now called ngx_parse_http_time(), and can be used by
any code to parse HTTP-style date and time. In particular, it will be
used for OCSP stapling.
For compatibility, a macro to map ngx_http_parse_time() to the new name
provided for a while.
It's now initialized in auto/options like the rest of variables
for system paths.
As a side effect, the currently unused macro NGX_SBIN_PATH now
gets the correct value.
With this change it's no longer needed to pass -D_GNU_SOURCE manually,
and -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 is set to use 64-bit off_t.
Note that nginx currently fails to work properly with master process
enabled on GNU Hurd, as fcntl(F_SETOWN) returns EOPNOTSUPP for sockets
as of GNU Hurd 0.6. Additionally, our strerror() preloading doesn't
work well with GNU Hurd, as it uses large numbers for most errors.
When configured, an individual listen socket on a given address is
created for each worker process. This allows to reduce in-kernel lock
contention on configurations with high accept rates, resulting in better
performance. As of now it works on Linux and DragonFly BSD.
Note that on Linux incoming connection requests are currently tied up
to a specific listen socket, and if some sockets are closed, connection
requests will be reset, see https://lwn.net/Articles/542629/. With
nginx, this may happen if the number of worker processes is reduced.
There is no such problem on DragonFly BSD.
Based on previous work by Sepherosa Ziehau and Yingqi Lu.
The code tried to use suffixes for "long" and "long long" types, but
it never worked as intended due to the bug in the shell code. Also,
the max value for any 64-bit type other than "long long" on platforms
with 32-bit "long" would be incorrect if the bug was fixed.
So instead of fixing the bug in the shell code, always use the "int"
constant for 32-bit types, and "long long" constant for 64-bit types.
It appeared that the NGX_HAVE_AIO_SENDFILE macro was defined regardless of
the "--with-file-aio" configure option and the NGX_HAVE_FILE_AIO macro.
Now they are related.
Additionally, fixed one macro.
Previous workaround to avoid warnings on OS X due to deprecated system
OpenSSL library (introduced in a3870ea96ccd) no longer works, as
the MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED macro is ignored on OS X 10.9
if a compiler used supports __attribute__(availability).
This fixes --with-file-aio support on systems that lack eventfd()
syscall, notably aarch64 Linux.
The syscall(SYS_eventfd) may still be necessary on systems that
have eventfd() syscall in the kernel but lack it in glibc, e.g.
as seen in the current CentOS 5 release.
Client address specified in the PROXY protocol header is now
saved in the $proxy_protocol_addr variable and can be used in
the realip module.
This is currently not implemented for mail.
Modern clang versions seem to no longer produce warnings for
system headers on Linux (at least clang 3.3 works), hence the
change. For older versions --with-cc-opt="-Wno-error" can be
used as a workaround.
Several warnings silenced, notably (ngx_socket_t) -1 is now checked
on socket operations instead of -1, as ngx_socket_t is unsigned on win32
and gcc complains on comparison.
With this patch, it's now possible to compile nginx using mingw gcc,
with options we normally compile on win32.
