1ac7c8e9040e0d0b7e9f849e45b94bfe919595a9Timo Sirainen *) mod_include: Add an "if" directive syntax to test whether an URL

1ac7c8e9040e0d0b7e9f849e45b94bfe919595a9Timo Sirainen allows a webmaster to hide a link to a private page when the user

1ac7c8e9040e0d0b7e9f849e45b94bfe919595a9Timo Sirainen *) mod_dbd: Introduce configuration groups to allow inheritance by virtual
1ac7c8e9040e0d0b7e9f849e45b94bfe919595a9Timo Sirainen hosts of database configurations from the main server. Determine the

1ac7c8e9040e0d0b7e9f849e45b94bfe919595a9Timo Sirainen whenever possible. Allow virtual hosts to override inherited SQL
statements. PR 41302. [Chris Darroch]
*) core: Fix broken chunk filtering that causes all non blocking reads to be
converted into blocking reads. PR 41056. [Jean-Frederic Clere, Jim Jagielski]
*) apxs: Enhance -q flag to print all known variables and their values
when invoked without variable name(s).
[William Rowe, Sander Temme]
*) apxs: Eliminate run-time check for mod_so. PR 40653.
[David M. Lee <dmlee crossroads.com>]
*) beos MPM: Create pmain pool and run modules' child_init hooks when
entering ap_mpm_run(), then destroy pmain when exiting ap_mpm_run().
[Chris Darroch]
*) netware MPM: Destroy pmain pool when exiting ap_mpm_run() so that
cleanups registered in modules' child_init hooks are performed.
[Chris Darroch]
*) core: Do not replace a Date header set by a proxied backend server.
PR 40232. [Ruediger Pluem]
*) mod_proxy: Ensure that at least scheme://hostname[:port] matches between
worker and URL when searching for the best fitting worker for a given URL.
PR 40910. [Ruediger Pluem]
*) mod_cache: Remove expired content from cache that cannot be revalidated.
PR 30370. [Ruediger Pluem]
*) mod_dbd: Stash DBD connections in request_config of initial request
only, or else sub-requests and internal redirections may cause
entire DBD pool to be stashed in a single HTTP request. [Chris Darroch]
*) mod_mem_cache: Increase the minimum and default value for
MCacheMinObjectSize from 0 to 1, as a MCacheMinObjectSize of 0 does not
make sense and leads to a division by zero. PR 40576.
[Xuekun Hu <xuekun.hu gmail.com>]
*) Fix issue which could cause error messages to be written to access logs
on Win32. PR 40476. [Tom Donovan <Tom.Donovan acm.org>]
*) The LockFile directive, which specifies the location of
the accept() mutex lockfile, is deprecated. Instead, the
AcceptMutex directive now takes an optional lockfile
location parameter, ala SSLMutex. [Jim Jagielski]
*) mod_authn_dbd: Export any additional columns queried in the SQL select
into the environment with the name AUTHENTICATE_<COLUMN>. This brings
mod_authn_dbd behaviour in line with mod_authnz_ldap. [Graham Leggett]
*) mod_dbd: Key the storage of prepared statements on the hex string
value of server_rec, rather than the server name, as the server name
may change (eg when the server name is set) at any time, causing
weird behaviour in modules dependent on mod_dbd. [Graham Leggett]
*) mod_proxy_fcgi: Added win32 build. [Mladen Turk]
*) sendfile_nonblocking() takes the _brigade_ as an argument, gets
the first bucket from the brigade, finds it not to be a FILE
bucket and barfs. The fix is to pass a bucket rather than a brigade.
[Niklas Edmundsson <nikke acc.umu.se>]
*) mod_rewrite: support rewritemap by SQL query [Nick Kew]
*) ap_get_server_version() has been removed. Third-party modules must
now use ap_get_server_banner() or ap_get_server_description().
[Jeff Trawick]
*) All MPMs: 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. Handle relevant MPM directives during this phase
and format messages for both the console and the error log, as
appropriate. [Chris Darroch]
*) mod_proxy: don't URLencode tilde in path component
[Stijn Hoop <stijn sandcat.nl>]
*) mpm_winnt: Fix return values from wait_for_many_objects.
The return value is index to the signaled thread in the
creted_threads array. We can not use WAIT_TIMEOUT because
his value is defined as 258, thus limiting the MaxThreads
to that value. [Mladen Turk]
*) core: Do not allow internal redirects like the DirectoryIndex of mod_dir
to circumvent the symbolic link checks imposed by FollowSymLinks and
SymLinksIfOwnerMatch. [Nick Kew, Ruediger Pluem, William Rowe]
*) mod_proxy: Support environment variable interpolation in reverse
proxying directives. [Nick Kew]
*) core: Add the filename of the configuration file to the warning message
about the useless use of AllowOverride. PR 39992.
[Darryl Miles <darryl darrylmiles.org>]
*) New SSLLogLevelDebugDump [ None (default) | IO (not bytes) | Bytes ]
configures the I/O Dump of SSL traffic, when LogLevel is set to Debug.
The default is none as this is far greater debugging resolution than
the typical administrator is prepared to untangle. [William Rowe]
*) mod_disk_cache: If possible, check if the size of an object to cache is
within the configured boundaries before actually saving data.
[Niklas Edmundsson <nikke acc.umu.se>]
*) mod_cache: Convert all values to seconds before comparing them when
checking whether to send a Warning header for a stale response.
PR 39713. [Owen Taylor <otaylor redhat.com>]
*) mod_disk_cache: Delete temporary files if they cannot be renamed to their
final name. [Davi Arnaut <davi haxent.com.br>]
*) Worker and event MPMs: Remove improper scoreboard updates which were
performed in the event of a fork() failure. [Chris Darroch]
*) Add support for fcgi:// proxies to mod_rewrite.
[Markus Schiegl <ms schiegl.com>]
*) Remove incorrect comments from scoreboard.h regarding conditional
loading of worker_score structure with mod_status, and remove unused
definitions relating to old life_status field.
[Chris Darroch <chrisd pearsoncmg.com>]
*) Remove allocation of memory for unused array of lb_score pointers
in ap_init_scoreboard(). [Chris Darroch <chrisd pearsoncmg.com>]

*) Event MPM: Fill in the scoreboard's tid field. PR 38736.
[Chris Darroch <chrisd pearsoncmg.com>]
*) mod_charset_lite: Remove Content-Length when output filter can
invalidate it. Warn when input filter can invalidate it.
[Jeff Trawick]
*) mod_ssl: Fix spurious hostname mismatch warning for valid
wildcard certificates. PR 37911. [Nick Burch <nick torchbox.com>]
*) Authz: Add the new module mod_authn_core that will provide common
authn directives such as 'AuthType', 'AuthName'. Move the directives
'AuthType' and 'AuthName' out of the core module and merge mod_authz_alias
into mod_authn_core. [Brad Nicholes]
*) Authz: Move the directives 'Order', 'Allow', 'Deny' and 'Satisfy'
into the new module mod_access_compat which can be loaded to provide
support for these directives.
[Brad Nicholes]
*) Authz: Move the 'Require' directive from the core module as well as
add the directives '<SatisfyAll>', '<SatisfyOne>', '<RequireAlias>'
and 'Reject' to mod_authz_core. The new directives introduce 'AND/OR'
logic into the authorization processing. [Brad Nicholes]
*) Authz: Add the new module mod_authz_core which acts as the
authorization provider vector and contains common authz
directives. [Brad Nicholes]
*) Authz: Renamed mod_authz_dbm authz providers from 'group' and
'file-group' to 'dbm-group' and 'dbm-file-group'. [Brad Nicholes]
*) Authz: Added the new authz providers 'env', 'ip', 'host', 'all' to handle
host-based access control provided by mod_authz_host and invoked
through the 'Require' directive. [Brad Nicholes]
*) Authz: Convert all of the authz modules from hook based to
provider based. [Brad Nicholes]
*) mod_cache: Add CacheMinExpire directive to set the minimum time in
seconds to cache a document.
[Brian Akins <brian.akins turner.com>, Ruediger Pluem]
*) mod_authz_dbd: SQL authz with Login/Session support [Nick Kew]
*) Fix typo in ProxyStatus syntax error message.
[Christophe Jaillet <christophe.jaillet wanadoo.fr>]
*) Asynchronous write completion for the Event MPM. [Brian Pane]
*) Added an End-Of-Request bucket type. The logging of a request and
the freeing of its pool are now done when the EOR bucket is destroyed.
This has the effect of delaying the logging until right after the last
of the response is sent; ap_core_output_filter() calls the access logger
indirectly when it destroys the EOR bucket. [Brian Pane]
*) Rewrite of logresolve support utility: IPv6 addresses are now supported
and the format of statistical output has changed. [Colm MacCarthaigh]
*) Rewrite of ap_coreoutput_filter to do nonblocking writes [Brian Pane]
*) Added new connection states for handler and write completion
[Brian Pane]
*) mod_cgid: Refuse to work on Solaris 10 due to OS bugs. PR 34264.
[Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Teach mod_ssl to use arbitrary OIDs in an SSLRequire directive,
allowing string-valued client certificate attributes to be used for
access control, as in: SSLRequire "value" in OID("1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.1")
