Provide a way for EXEC_ON_READ directives to see their context (parent directive). Usually, this context is not also EXEC_ON_READ so it's not fully processed, so e.g cmd->path is not fluffed up yet because the closing tag of the section is not read yet and ap_check_cmd_context() doesn't work)

fix a couple of grammar problems

Replace pre_htaccess hook with more flexible open_htaccess hook

Make ap_check_cmd_context() treat <If> sections like <File> sections. This is necessary to properly disallow directives that don't work in <If>. A separate NOT_IN_IF flag may be nicer, but would create much more hassle when being backported to 2.4.

Core configuration: add AllowOverride option to treat syntax errors in .htaccess as non-fatal. PR 52439

Clean up size_t abuse, part 2. ap_malloc/calloc/realloc are explicitly excluded from this cleanup as they must be signature identical to the clib functions, and although the definition of size_t has been flakey, the definition of those functions appears to be generally clean since ANSI C.

Limit length of lines in .htaccess to 8K again, to reduce DoS potential. Make ap_varbuf_cfg_getline() strictly enforce the max_len parameter.

Consistenly use apr_file_* API instead of libc when dumping config because mixing the two can give strange results due to buffering.

rename the new retained-data APIs to ap_retained_data_create()/ap_retained_data_get(), for better consistency with existing APIs (e.g., slotmem) don't bother changing the MMN, which doesn't reflect recent -dev changes anyway

Provide ap_set_retained_data()/ap_get_retained_data() for preservation of module state across unload/load. The existing idiom used by modules to associate userdata with pglobal doesn't work in the earliest phases of module execution. (This does expose pglobal as an implementation detail, but it would be great to unexpose it if at all possible (but modules already have access to pglobal at almost all stages of execution anyway).)

Remove CORE_PRIVATE. This define serves no modern purpose, since every module in the wild, including our own define it, for no purpose. If you have functions which you do not want in the 'public' API, put them in a private header, that is not installed, just like mod_ssl does.

"Method" in HTTP has a particular meaning, simple descriptive change to avoid using that phrase in another context.

Use correct Doxygen keywords for functions and variables. TODO: figure out whether those keywords are actually necessary. HTML-ify some documentation comments for benefit of Doxygen.

Introduce a check_config phase between pre_config and open_logs, to allow modules to review interdependent configuration directive values and adjust them while messages can still be logged to the console. The open_logs phase is already used somewhat for this purpose by certain MPMs (winnt, prefork, worker, and event) but only by forcing their functions ahead of the core ap_open_logs() function, and since this phase runs after the ap_signal_server function during startup, it can not be used to generate messages on the console when restarting. Add the check_config phase to mod_info and mod_example. Handle relevant MPM directives during this phase and format messages for both the console and the error log, as appropriate. Bounds and sanity checks on the values of the MPM directives are handled in sequence in this phase instead of in the various directive handling functions, since those functions (e.g., set_max_clients()) may not be called at all if their directives do not appear in the configuration files, and even if they are called, there is no guarantee that this will occur in any particular order. Remove from the worker and event MPMs the code in the pre_config phase that alters the configuration node tree by re-ordering ThreadsPerChild ahead of MaxClients. This code is effective but insufficient; for example, if ServerLimit follows MaxClients, the test against server_limit in set_max_clients() is invalid. (In practice, this only results in incorrect or absent warnings on the console, because server_limit is set to its configured value when the main loop re-runs the configuration process.) Prevent ap_threads_per_child from exceeding thread_limit in the winnt, worker, and event MPMs. This situation could occur if ThreadsPerChild was not specified in the configuration files and ThreadLimit was set to a value smaller than DEFAULT_THREADS_PER_CHILD, because set_threads_per_child() would never be called and therefore its bounds check against thread_limit would not be performed. Remove from the winnt, prefork, worker, and event MPMs the changed_limit_at_restart flag. Set the first_server_limit and first_thread_limit values during the first execution of the check_config function, and use them to detect changes to ServerLimit and ThreadLimit across restarts and issue appropriately formatted warnings. Remove the comments about the error log being a "bit bucket"; this was true when the code was originally committed in r92530 but that was due to a bug fixed in r92769. Be consistent about setting all MPM configuration directive values in the pre_config phase. Rephrase and reformat the console and log file messages relating to MPM configuration directives to be consistent across all MPMs. Use briefer messages when logging to the error log than to the console. Update miscellaneous stale comments and messages (e.g., reference to daemons_min_free in worker and event MPMs, "prefork open_logs" in winnt MPM, and StartServers in netware MPM). The winnt, netware, beos, and mpmt_os2 MPMs should be tested by developers with access to those platforms, especially the winnt MPM, which has unique logic with respect to distinguishing between parent and child processes during the configuration phases. Update the English documentation for the worker MPM's ThreadsPerChild directive, which no longer needs to precede other MPM directives in the configuration files if it has a non-default value. The German (.de) and Japanese (.ja) translations should be updated by developers fluent in those languages.

Start introducing the extension-method elements so we're not bound to hard-coded names and a bitmask. We still use the bitmask for known methods, but we also have an array for extension method named. Wherever we used the M_* constants we need to use a routine that knows about the new structure instead. This is far from complete, but AFAIK this interim work doesn't break anything -- especially the compile. The rest of the work will be added in segments; this is just a checkpoint.

This patch corrects the issues from the AP_EXPORT and linkage specification arguments to the ap_hooks.h declarations. As with the APR_ and AP_ patches, API_VAR_EXPORT becomes API_EXPORT_VAR, and MODULE_VAR_EXPORT becomes MODULE_EXPORT_VAR. I will be happy to revert the inclusion of ap_config.h from httpd.h if this bothers anyone. More individual modules need to be patched if we do so. The API_EXPORTs all moved into central storage in the ap_config.h header. Without WIN32 or API_STATIC compile time declarations, these macros remain no-ops.

Radical overhaul of the Apache-2.0/Win32 mpm <-> service schema. 1) Services and Registry are not part of the core Apache operations, so registry.c and service.c are moved into Apache.exe - assuring the service control layers of NT and 95 are truly isolated. 2) Isolation can't be complete, we need to know when the mpm is fully initialized. A new pointer to a no-arg function returning void is provided for this purpose, ap_mpm_init_complete. It is only called if overridden with a non-NULL value prior to invoking apache_main. 3) Control+C, Control+Break are handled on both WinNT and Win9x. 4) The window close, logoff and shutdown events are handled on WinNT. 5) The beginnings of a Win95 service startup are provided, -k startservice but this is horribly incomplete since Win95 will NOT report shutdown.

Remove from http_core.c. do not store </FOO> directives in the config tree. clean out section-close logic from http_core.c (and old, related comments) <Limit> and <LimitExcept> must walk their children. new mechanism in ap_check_cmd_context() for testing enclosure in a Directory/Location/File: find_parent() <IfModule> and <IfDefine> must pass cmd->context when walking the children several places: we had a walk followed by ap_get_module_config(). that assumed the walk would create a config that we could fetch, which is not true -- it is possible that the children are all from other modules (e.g. the <Files> section in httpd.conf-dist has no "core" directives). using ap_set_config_vectors() ensures we get a structure, and it returns it to us. [ note: when we had </Directory> (and friends) in the tree, the config would get created; removing the directive removed the config; this was a bitch to track down :-) ]

Well this was thought provoking. Drive out the use of malloc in two places. In listen.c, using the global process pool instead. That changes the API into listen so that a process is passed in rather than the config pool. That's all was easy. The pain is propogating a change into all N of the mpm, they are all similar but different in their use of listen.c There is a lot to dislike about similar but code scattered code. I changed the N setup_listener routines, they now take only the server since they can dig the config and global pool out of there. Free today: ap_setup_prelinked_modules now takes the process so it can allocate it's table in the process's pool rathern than use malloc.

Add process_rec to the top of {server,connection,request}_rec hierarchy of structs that abstract server activities. Store some stuff in process_rec (finally a place to have nearly guiltless globals) for example the global and configuration pools. Put some operations on process_rec in http_main, in particular the destroy_and_exit operation, and the use it to do all the exit calls. Change ap_read_config to operation on this "object" rather than on the configuration pool. Modify server_rec to point to the process, so you can get at it most all the time which should finally allow most of the server's malloc calls to be eliminated. There are no locks in the process struct as yet, put them in as needed. Some of the hooks should take this rather than conf. pool.

Changed pools to contexts. Tested with prefork and pthread mpm's. I'll check this out tomorrow and make sure everything was checked in correctly.

Start to implement module-defined hooks that are a) fast and b) typesafe. Replace pre_connection module call with a register_hook call and implement pre_connection as a hook.

Moved connection open, maintenance and close to http_connection.c. I/O layering and BUFF revamp. Much of buff.c moved to ap_iol, iol_socket, and iol_file. See docs/buff.txt. Moved user and auth fields from connection_rec to request_rec. Removed RLIMIT stuff, supposedly to be implemented later in mod_cgi. Disabled suexec, supposedly to be reimplemented later.
