85fc7dbf8f928aea2a6fddde85a77950f69284ddvboxsync

85fc7dbf8f928aea2a6fddde85a77950f69284ddvboxsync *) mod_lua: If the first yield() of a LuaOutputFilter returns a string, it should

85fc7dbf8f928aea2a6fddde85a77950f69284ddvboxsync be prefixed to the response as documented. [Eric Covener]

*) mod_lua: Remove ETAG, Content-Length, and Content-MD5 when a LuaOutputFilter

is configured without mod_filter. [Eric Covener]

*) mod_lua: Register LuaOutputFilter scripts as changing the content and

content-length by default, when run my mod_filter. Previously,

growing or shrinking a response that started with Content-Length set

would require mod_filter and FilterProtocol change=yes. [Eric Covnener]

*) mod_lua: Return a 500 error if a LuaHook* script doesn't return a

numeric return code. [Eric Covener]

*) Add experimental cmake-based build system for Windows. [Jeff Trawick,

Tom Donovan]

*) mod_authnz_fcgi: New module to enable FastCGI authorizer

applications to authenticate and/or authorize clients.

[Jeff Trawick]

*) mod_auth_basic: Add AuthBasicUseDigestAlgorithm directive to

allow migration of passwords from digest to basic authentication.

routines for FastCGI, based largely on mod_proxy_fcgi.

[Jeff Trawick]

*) 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_socache_shmcb.c: Remove arbitrary restriction on shared memory size

previously limited to 64MB. [Jens Låås <jelaas gmail.com>]

*) 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]

*) ab: Add a new -l parameter in order not to check the length of the responses.

This can be usefull with dynamic pages.

PR9945, PR27888, PR42040 [<ccikrs1 cranbrook edu>]

and sent byte counts.

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>]

a poll event from a read to a write or vice versa. This is a step on

the way to allow mod_ssl taking full advantage of the event MPM.

[Graham Leggett]

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

LDAPConnectionPoolTimeout. PR 54587

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

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]

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]

URL in the request line. [Stefan Fritsch]

*) mod_ssl: Add support for OpenSSL configuration commands [Stephen Henson]

*) 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]

SSLProxyMachineCertificateFile/Path directives. PR 52212.

[Keith Burdis <keith burdis.org>, Joe Orton]

*) 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_socache_shmcb, mod_socache_dbm: shared memory or dbm for cache

[Jeff Trawick]

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

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]
