*) core: ensure any abnormal exit is reported to stderr if it's a tty.

PR 55670 [Nick Kew]

*) mod_lua: Let the Inter-VM get/set functions work with a global

shared memory pool instead of a per-process pool. [Daniel Gruno]

*) ldap: Support ldaps when using the Microsoft LDAP SDK.

PR 54626. [Jean-Frederic Clere]

*) mod_proxy: Add ap_connection_reusable() for checking if a connection

is reusable as of this point in processing. [Jeff Trawick]

*) mod_authnz_ldap: Change default value of AuthLDAPMaxSubGroupDepth to 0

to avoid performance problems when subgroups aren't in use. [Eric Covener]

*) mod_syslog: New module implementing syslog ap_error_log provider.

Previously, this code was part of core, now it's in separate module.

[Jan Kaluza]

*) core: Add ap_errorlog_provider to make ErrorLog logging modular. Move

syslog support from core to new mod_syslog. [Jan Kaluza]

*) mod_status, mod_echo: Fix the display of client addresses.

They were truncated to 31 characters which is not enough for IPv6 addresses.

PR 54848 [Bernhard Schmidt <berni birkenwald de>]

*) core: Add ap_log_data(), ap_log_rdata(), etc. for logging buffers.

[Jeff Trawick]

*) mod_unique_id: Use output of the PRNG rather than IP address and

pid, avoiding sleep() call and possible DNS issues at startup,

plus improving randomness for IPv6-only hosts.

[Jan Kaluza <jkaluza redhat.com>]

*) mod_authnz_ldap: Support primitive LDAP servers that do not accept

filters, such as "SDBM-backed LDAP" on z/OS, by allowing a special

filter "none" to be specified in AuthLDAPURL. [Eric Covener]

*) mod_file_cache: mod_file_cache should be able to serve files that

haven't had a Content-Type set via e.g. mod_mime. [Eric Covener]

*) core: merge AllowEncodedSlashes from the base configuration into

virtual hosts. [Eric Covener]

*) AIX: Install DSO's with "cp" instead of "install" in instdso.sh

[Eric Covener]

*) mod_ldap: Don't keep retrying if a new LDAP connection times out.

[Eric Covener]

*) mod_deflate: permit compilation of mod_deflate against a zlib that has

been configured with -D Z_PREFIX, which redefines the token "deflate".

[Eric Covener]

*) mod_auth_digest: Use the secret when generating nonces in all cases and

not only when AuthName is used in .htaccess files (this change may cause

problems if used with round robin load balancers). Don't regenerate the

secret on graceful restarts. PR 54637 [Stefan Fritsch]

*) core: Remove apr_brigade_flatten(), buffering and duplicated code

from the HTTP_IN filter, parse chunks in a single pass with zero copy.

Reduce memory usage by 48 bytes per request. [Graham Leggett]

*) core: Stop the HTTP_IN filter from attempting to write error buckets

to the output filters, which is bogus in the proxy case. Create a

clean mapping from APR codes to HTTP status codes, and use it where

needed. [Graham Leggett]

*) mod_proxy: Ensure network errors detected by the proxy are returned as

504 Gateway Timout as opposed to 502 Bad Gateway, in order to be

compliant with RFC2616 14.9.4 Cache Revalidation and Reload Controls.

*) mod_dav: mod_dav overrides dav_fs response on PUT failure. PR 35981

[Basant Kumar Kukreja <basant.kukreja sun.com>, Alejandro Alvarez

<alejandro.alvarez.ayllon cern.ch>]

*) mod_ldap: LDAP connections used for authentication were not respecting

LDAPConnectionPoolTimeout. PR 54587

*) core: ap_rgetline_core now pulls from r->proto_input_filters.

*) mod_proxy_html: process parsed comments immediately.

Fixes bug where parsed comments may be lost. [Nick Kew]

*) mod_proxy_html: introduce doctype for HTML 5 [Nick Kew]

*) mod_proxy_html: fix typo-bug processing "strict" vs "transitional"

HTML/XHTML [Nick Kew]

*) core: Add option to add valgrind support. Use it to reduce false positive

warnings in mod_ssl. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) mod_authn_file, mod_authn_dbd, mod_authn_dbm, mod_authn_socache:

Cache the result of the most recent password hash verification for every

keep-alive connection. This saves some expensive calculations.

[Stefan Fritsch]

*) http: Remove support for Request-Range header sent by Navigator 2-3 and

MSIE 3. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) core, http: Extend HttpProtocol with an option to enforce stricter HTTP

conformance or to only log the found problems. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) core: Correctly parse an IPv6 literal host specification in an absolute

URL in the request line. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) EventOpt MPM

*) core: Add LogLevelOverride directive that allows to override the

loglevel for clients from certain IPs. This also works for things

like the SSL handshake where <If> LogLevel ... </If> is evaluated

too late. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) core: Add new directive Warning to issue warnings from a configuration

file. Both Warning and Error now generate a timestamped log message.

[Fabien Coelho]

*) ap_expr: Add SERVER_PROTOCOL_VERSION, ..._MAJOR, and ..._MINOR

variables. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) core: New directive RegisterHttpMethod for registering non-standard

HTTP methods. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) core: New directive HttpProtocol which allows to disable HTTP/0.9

support. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) mod_allowhandlers: New module to forbid specific handlers for specific

directories. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) mod_systemd: New module, for integration with systemd on Linux.

[Jan Kaluza <jkaluza redhat.com>]

*) WinNT MPM: Store pid and generation for each thread in scoreboard

to allow tracking of threads from exiting children via mod_status

or other such mechanisms. [Jeff Trawick]

*) The following now respect DefaultRuntimeDir/DEFAULT_REL_RUNTIMEDIR:

- APIs: ap_log_pid(), ap_remove_pid, ap_read_pid()

- core: the scoreboard (ScoreBoardFile), pid file (PidFile), and

mutexes (Mutex)

- mod_cache: thundering herd lock directory

- mod_lbmethod_heartbeat, mod_heartmonitor: heartbeat storage file

- mod_ldap: shared memory cache

- mod_socache_shmcb, mod_socache_dbm: shared memory or dbm for cache

[Jeff Trawick]

*) suexec: Add --enable-suexec-capabilites support on Linux, to use

setuid/setgid capability bits rather than a setuid root binary.

[Joe Orton]

*) suexec: Add support for logging to syslog as an alternative to logging

to a file; configure --without-suexec-logfile --with-suexec-syslog.

[Joe Orton]

*) mod_ssl: Add support for TLS Next Protocol Negotiation. PR 52210.

[Matthew Steele <mdsteele google.com>]

*) cross-compile: allow to provide CC_FOR_BUILD so that gen_test_char will

be compiled by the build compiler instead of the host compiler.

Also set CC_FOR_BUILD to 'cc' when cross-compilation is detected.

PR 51257. [Guenter Knauf]

*) core: In maintainer mode, replace apr_palloc with a version that

initializes the allocated memory with non-zero values, except if

AP_DEBUG_NO_ALLOC_POISON is defined. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) mod_policy: Add a new testing module to help server administrators

enforce a configurable level of protocol compliance on their

servers and application servers behind theirs. [Graham Leggett]

*) mod_firehose: Add a new debugging module able to record traffic

passing through the server in such a way that connections and/or

requests be reconstructed and replayed. [Graham Leggett]

*) mod_noloris

*) APREQ

*) Simple MPM

*) mod_serf
