| Referer: http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/download.html |
| Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate |
| |
| The confusion was because apr_sendfile() returned APR_SUCCESS |
| but zero bytes sent. Presumably the FreeBSD kernel sendfile() |
| did the same thing (not 100% sure). |
| |
| Also happened on 20010605... |

| Again, it would seem that FreeBSD sendfile() returned rc 0 with |
| no bytes sent. (Other eyes welcome, of course... make sure you |
| look at 2_0_16 sources.) |
| |
| * core dump from 20010521 and 20010529 running 2_0_16 - the "3030" problem |
| |
| /usr/local/apache/corefiles/httpd.core.6 |
| #0 0x80987e8 in apr_cvt (arg=1.3980432860952889e-76, |

| #1 0x30303030 in ?? () |
| Cannot access memory at address 0x30303030. |
| |
| In both coredumps the request is /server-status?auto. |
| |
| It is unclear whether the apr_*printf function was passed bad |
| data or it screwed up on its own. 0x30 is '0'. There is a |
| string of 200-300 '0' characters in the dump, apparently |
| overlaying enough of the stack to cause serious problems :) |
| |
| RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS: |
| |
| WARNING: ALWAYS check srclib/apr/STATUS and srclib/apr-util/STATUS |
| |
| * Win32: Rotatelogs sometimes is not terminated when Apache |
| goes down hard. Need parent tracking the child's processes. |
| |
| * 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 |
| |
| * Win32: Complete the revamp the service environment and relocation |
| into the WinNT MPM. Changes ServerRoot service registry |
| parameter into ConfigArgs for multiple service startup parameters. |
| Problems to fix in the revamp: -k shutdown/restart are broken, |
| signals are not being acknowledged. Close window and shutdown |
| also seem out of sorts. |
| OtherBill is working on this and will finish over the weekend. |
| |
| * We need a thread-safe resolver, at least on Unix. |
| Status: The best known candidate would be something from |
| BIND v9. |
| Status: Greg asks, "why? doesn't gethostbyname_r() handle this?" |
| |
| * The AddInputFilter and AddOutputFilter directives do not allow the |
| administrator to remove or reorder filters. Once a filter is added |
| in a container, it is present in any subcontainers. It can only be |
| added to the filter chain after any filters specified in enclosing |
| containers. |
| |
| * remove the --disable-shared from the subdir config of APR(UTIL) |
| before the final release. (in fact, it might even be nice to |
| allow for Apache config/build against an already-installed |
| APR(UTIL)) |
| Note: we need to do a "make install" for APR(UTIL) so the shared |
| libraries can be installed properly. We could also use that |
| point to install include files (rather than have Apache |
| know everything that needs to be installed from the |
| sub-packages). The original impetus for doing the |
| disable-shared was because the shared lib wasn't getting |
| installed and a "make clean" in aprutil would make Apache |
| fail to load. |
| |
| * ap_vrprintf() needs to handle more than 4K |
| Status: Greg volunteers |
| |
| * mod_dir should normally redirect ALL directory requests which do |
| not include a trailing slash on the URI. However, if a "notes" |
| flag is set (say, via BrowserMatch), this behavior will be |
| disabled for non-GET requests. |
| Status: Greg volunteers |
| MsgId: <20010227104646.E2297@lyra.org> |
| MsgId: <3A9C0097.9C83F07C@Golux.Com> |
| |
| * Usability: Sanitize the MPM config directives. MaxClients in |
| the threaded MPM is totally misleading now as it has little to |
| do with limiting the number of clients (it limits the number |
| of child processes). Bill proposed nomenclature change to |
| something like "StartWorkers, MaxWorkers, etc." that could |
| apply to most all the MPMs (with some notable exceptions). |
| Bill would be happy with changing MaxClients to MaxServers |
| to make it agree with the operation of the StartServers |
| directive. |
| |
| RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP: |
| |
| * Win32: Get Apache working on Windows 95/98. The following work |
| (at least) needs to be done: |
| - winnt MPM: Fix 95/98 code paths in the winnt MPM. There is some NT |
| specific code that is still not in NT only code paths |
| - IOL binds to APR sendfile, implemented with TransmitFile, which |
| is not available on 95/98. |
| - Document warning that OSR2 is required (for Crypt functions, in |
| rand.c, at least.) |
| |
| * Port of mod_ssl to Apache 2.0: |
| |
| The current porting state is summarized in modules/ssl/README. The next |
| step is to figure out how the old three configuration contexts (global, |
| per-server, per-directory) can be ported to Apache 2.0 (especially the |
| global context which has to survive server restarts RSE still does not |
| know how to port). Then the remaining source files (which depend on the |
| configuration contexts) which are still tagged with "-" in |
| modules/ssl/README can be ported. |
| |
| One more thing to figure out is how and when mod_ssl can provide the |
| interactive pass phrase dialog (in Apache 1.3 it used the first init |
| round [where tty was still not detached] and skipped the second init |
| round [where it was already detached]). Apache 2.0 requires (or already |
| has?) an official hook where such tty-dialogs can be performed. |
| |
| RSE is on holiday until June 11th, 2001. After this he starts |
| working on mod_ssl again and tries to make mod_ssl running inside |
| Apache 2.0 by end of June. If anyone wants to help making mod_ssl |
| running in the meantime, feel free to make your hands dirty inside |
| modules/ssl/. Do whatever you think is appropriate to get it |
| running. I've no objections of any kind, except: just do not |
| remove any old functionality. Keep everything, even if it needs |
| #if 0...endif wrapped to not make trouble for you. |
| |
| * Performance: Get the SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT |
| optimization working in threaded. prefork's new design for how |
| to notice data on the pod should be sufficient. |
| |
| * mod_tls is very specific to OpenSSL. Make the API calls |
| more generic to support other encryption libraries. |
| |
| * Performance & Debug: Eliminate most (and perhaps all) of the |
| malloc/free calls in the bucket brigade code. Need some |
| light weight memory management functions that allow freeing |
| memory (putting it back into a memory pool) when it is no |
| longer needed. Enabling simple debugging features like guard |
| bands, double free detection, etc. would be cool but certainly |
| not a hard requirement. |
| Status: Cliff, David, et al have discussed using the blocks SMS |
| for this. First step is to s/malloc/apr_sms_malloc/g, etc. |
| We could then have a thread-private SMS that is pointed |
| to by the conn_rec's or something so that all calls to |
| the bucket create functions can pass in that SMS. No locks |
| required. Should be fast... |
| |
| * Eliminate unnecessary creation of pipes in mod_cgid |
| |
| * the autoconf setup should be fixed to default to using the |
| "Apache" layout from config.layout, and each variable settable |
| in a layout should be overridable on the command line. Plus, |
| what we do right now just doesn't seem to fully fit into how autoconf |
| works, eg. AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT issues. |
| Message-ID: <Pine.BSF.4.20.0104031557420.20876-100000@alive.znep.com> |
| |
| * Combine log_child and piped_log_spawn. Clean up http_log.c. |
| Common logging API. |
| |
| * Document mod_file_cache. |
| |
| * OS/2: Make mod_status work for spmt_os2 MPM. |
| |
| * Win32: Win9x console window still won't play nice with the |
| close window, logoff and shutdown scenarios. |
| Status: OtherBill will move the patch forward from 1.3.15, once we |
| get our other Win9x issues solved. |
| |
| * 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. |
| Status: OtherBill is bringing forward same ugly hack from 1.3.13 |
| |
| * 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_db/dbm administration. |
| |
| * use apu_dbm in mod_auth_dbm |
| Status: Greg +1 (low-priority volunteer) |
| |
| * 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? |
| - mod_dav_fs gets built static when mods-shared=most is specified. |
| |
| * 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 |
| |
| * APR-ize resolver stuff in mod_unique_id (Jeff volunteers) |
| |
| * callers of ap_run_create_request() should check the return value |
| for failure (Doug volunteers) |
| |
| * when prefork bails out due to an initialization error in the detached |
| process (e.g., mutex init failure), other children (cgid, at least) |
| are left hanging around |

| * PR#6347: mod_mime |
| MIME types for MNG and JNG files need adding to mime.types and |

| Status: Waiting for IANA types to be defined |
| |
| Other bugs that need fixing: |
| |
| * MaxRequestsPerChild measures connections, not requests. |
| Until someone has a better way, we'll probably just rename it |
| "MaxConnectionsPerChild". |
| |
| * Regex containers don't work in an intutive way |
| Status: No one has come up with an efficient way to fix this |
| behavior. Dean has suggested getting rid of regex containers |
| completely. |
| |
| * 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. |
| Status: Greg volunteers to investigate (esp. since he was most |
| likely the one to break it :-) |
| |
| Other features that need writing: |
| |
| * Finish infrastructure in core for async MPMs |
| Status: post 2.0 |
| |
| * TODO in source -- just do an egrep on "TODO" and see what's there |
| |
| Documentation that needs writing: |
| * Mod_status docs are needed. |
| |
| * The concept of MPMs, especially if we ship more than one MPM for a |
| given platform |
| |
| * New directives in the various MPMs and appropriate links from |
| obsolete directives in core.html to the MPM documentation. |
| |
| * Revise manual/stopping.html and the last part of |
| manual/misc/perf-tuning.html to take account of the MPMs. |
| |
| * API documentation |
| Status: Ben Laurie has written some hooks documentation |
| (apache-2.0/htdocs/hooks.html) |
| |
| * Changes since 1.3.9 can be more easily seen in the commitlog file |
| dev.apache.org:/home/cvs/CVSROOT/commitlogs/apache-2.0 |
| which includes some of Roy's comments when the changes were |
| committed in rough change-sets by purpose. Note that the commitlog |
| does not show the contents of new files until later. |

| so that we know exactly what is required. |

| |
| * Which MPMs will be included with Apache 2.0? |
