0N/AChanges with Apache 2.3.0
0N/A[ When backported to
2.2.x, remove entry from this file ]
0N/A *) mod_ldap: Correctly return all requested attribute values
0N/A when some attributes have a null value.
0N/A *) core: check symlink ownership if both FollowSymlinks and
0N/A SymlinksIfOwnerMatch are set [Nick Kew]
0N/A *) core: fix origin checking in SymlinksIfOwnerMatch
0N/A *) mod_cache: Revalidate cache entities which have Cache-Control: no-cache
0N/A set in their response headers. PR 44511 [Ruediger Pluem]
0N/A *) rotatelogs: Added '-f' option to force rotatelogs to create the
873N/A logfile as soon as started, and not wait until it reads the
0N/A first entry. [Jim Jagielski]
0N/A *) mod_proxy: Do not try a direct connection if the connection via a
0N/A remote proxy failed before and the request has a request body.
0N/A *) mod_include: Correctly handle SSI directives split over multiple filter
0N/A *) mod_substitute: The default is now flattening the buckets after
0N/A each substitution. This was mostly done to abide by the
0N/A Principle Of Least Astonishment. The newly added 'q' flag allows for
1689N/A the quicker, more efficient bucket-splitting if the user so
0N/A desires. [Jim Jagielski]
1689N/A *) Added 'disablereuse' option for ProxyPass which, essentially,
0N/A disables connection pooling for the backend servers.
1177N/A *) Activate mod_cache, mod_file_cache and mod_disc_cache as part of the
1177N/A 'most' set for '--enable-modules' and '--enable-shared-mods'. Include
0N/A mod_mem_cache in 'all' as well. [Dirk-Willem van Gulik]
0N/A contain public function declarations which are useful for
0N/A third party module authors. PR 42431 [Dirk-Willem van Gulik].
1689N/A *) mod_dir, mod_negotiation: pass the output filter information
1689N/A to newly created sub requests; as these are later on used
0N/A as true requests with an internal redirect. This allows for
0N/A [Dirk-Willem van Gulik, Ruediger Pluem]
0N/A *) ab: Use a 64 bit unsigned int instead of a signed long to count the
0N/A bytes transferred to avoid integer overflows. PR 44346 [Ruediger Pluem]
0N/A *) mod_proxy_ajp: Do not retry request in the case that we either failed to
0N/A sent a part of the request body or if the request is not idempotent.
0N/A PR 44334 [Ruediger Pluem]
0N/A *) ProxyPassReverse is now balancer aware. [Jim Jagielski]
0N/A *) rotatelogs: Don't leak memory when reopening the logfile.
338N/A *) mod_ldap: Add support (taking advantage of the new APR capability)
0N/A for ldap rebind callback while chasing referrals. This allows direct
0N/A searches on LDAP servers (in particular MS Active Directory 2003+)
0N/A using referrals without the use of the global catalog.
0N/A PRs 26538, 40268, and 42557 [Paul J. Reder]
0N/A *) ab: Do not try to read non existing response bodies of HEAD requests.
0N/A *) Support chroot on Unix-family platforms
0N/A *) mod_proxy_http: Return HTTP status codes instead of apr_status_t
0N/A values for errors encountered while forwarding the request body
0N/A PR 44165 [Eric Covener]
0N/A *) mod_ssl: Added server name indication support (SNI, RFC 4366).
0N/A PR 34607. [Kaspar Brand <asfbugz
velox.ch>]. A test configuration
0N/A installer. This will permit the installation tool to remove
0N/A all running instances before attempting to remove the .exe.
0N/A *) mod_proxy: Lower memory consumption for short lived connections.
0N/A PR 44026. [Ruediger Pluem]
0N/A *) mod_proxy: Keep connections to the backend persistent in the HTTPS case.
0N/A *) rotatelogs: Improve atomicity when using -l and cleaup code.
0N/A PR 44004 [Rainer Jung]
338N/A *) mod_ssl: Add support for OCSP validation of client certificates.
0N/A *) mod_unique_id: Fix timestamp value in UNIQUE_ID.
0N/A *) mod_serf: New module for Reverse Proxying. [Paul Querna]
0N/A *) core: Add the option to keep aside a request body up to a certain
0N/A size that would otherwise be discarded, to be consumed by filters
0N/A such as mod_include. When enabled for a directory, POST requests
1689N/A to shtml files can be passed through to embedded scripts as POST
0N/A requests, rather being downgraded to GET requests. [Graham Leggett]
338N/A *) mod_ssl: Fix TLS upgrade (RFC 2817) support. PR 41231. [Joe Orton]
0N/A *) scoreboard: Correctly declare ap_time_process_request.
0N/A *) core; scoreboard: ap_get_scoreboard_worker(sbh) now takes the sbh member
1689N/A from the connection rec, ap_get_scoreboard_worker(proc, thread) will now
0N/A provide the unusual legacy lookup. [William Rowe]
0N/A *) mpm winnt: fix null pointer dereference
0N/A PR 42572 [Davi Arnaut]
0N/A *) core: reinstate location walk to fix config for subrequests
0N/A *) mod_log_config: Add format options for %p so that the actual local
338N/A or remote port can be logged. PR 43415. [Adam Hasselbalch Hansen
338N/A <ahh@one.com>, Ruediger Pluem, Jeff Trawick]
0N/A *) mod_authnz_ldap, mod_authn_dbd: Tidy up the code to expose authn
0N/A parameters to the environment. Improve portability to
1689N/A EBCDIC machines by using apr_toupper(). [Martin Kraemer]
0N/A *) mod_ldap, mod_authnzldap: Add support for nested groups (
i.e. the ability
0N/A to authorize an authenticated user via a "require ldap-group X" directive
0N/A where the user is not in group X, but is in a subgroup contained in X.
0N/A PR 42891 [Paul J. Reder]
1689N/A *) mod_ssl: Add support for caching SSL Sessions in memcached. [Paul Querna]
1689N/A *) ab: Add -r option to continue after socket receive errors.
1689N/A *) mod_ldap: Fix the search limit parameter to ldap_search_ext_s()
1689N/A for SDKs that define LDAP_NO_LIMIT to something other than -1.
0N/A *) apxs: Enhance -q flag to print all known variables and their values
338N/A when invoked without variable name(s).
338N/A [William Rowe, Sander Temme]
0N/A *) apxs: Eliminate run-time check for mod_so. PR 40653.
0N/A *) beos MPM: Create pmain pool and run modules' child_init hooks when
0N/A entering ap_mpm_run(), then destroy pmain when exiting ap_mpm_run().
0N/A *) netware MPM: Destroy pmain pool when exiting ap_mpm_run() so that
0N/A cleanups registered in modules' child_init hooks are performed.
0N/A *) mod_dbd: Stash DBD connections in request_config of initial request
338N/A only, or else sub-requests and internal redirections may cause
338N/A entire DBD pool to be stashed in a single HTTP request. [Chris Darroch]
0N/A *) Fix issue which could cause error messages to be written to access logs
0N/A *) The LockFile directive, which specifies the location of
0N/A the accept() mutex lockfile, is deprecated. Instead, the
0N/A AcceptMutex directive now takes an optional lockfile
0N/A location parameter, ala SSLMutex. [Jim Jagielski]
0N/A *) mod_authn_dbd: Export any additional columns queried in the SQL select
0N/A into the environment with the name AUTHENTICATE_<COLUMN>. This brings
0N/A mod_authn_dbd behaviour in line with mod_authnz_ldap. [Graham Leggett]
0N/A *) mod_dbd: Key the storage of prepared statements on the hex string
1689N/A value of server_rec, rather than the server name, as the server name
0N/A may change (eg when the server name is set) at any time, causing
0N/A weird behaviour in modules dependent on mod_dbd. [Graham Leggett]
0N/A *) mod_proxy_fcgi: Added win32 build. [Mladen Turk]
0N/A *) sendfile_nonblocking() takes the _brigade_ as an argument, gets
0N/A the first bucket from the brigade, finds it not to be a FILE
0N/A bucket and barfs. The fix is to pass a bucket rather than a brigade.
0N/A *) mod_rewrite: support rewritemap by SQL query [Nick Kew]
0N/A *) ap_get_server_version() has been removed. Third-party modules must
338N/A now use ap_get_server_banner() or ap_get_server_description().
0N/A *) All MPMs: Introduce a check_config phase between pre_config and
0N/A open_logs, to allow modules to review interdependent configuration
1689N/A directive values and adjust them while messages can still be logged
0N/A to the console. Handle relevant MPM directives during this phase
0N/A and format messages for both the console and the error log, as
338N/A appropriate. [Chris Darroch]
0N/A *) mod_proxy: don't URLencode tilde in path component
1689N/A *) mpm_winnt: Fix return values from wait_for_many_objects.
0N/A The return value is index to the signaled thread in the
0N/A creted_threads array. We can not use WAIT_TIMEOUT because
338N/A his value is defined as 258, thus limiting the MaxThreads
338N/A to that value. [Mladen Turk]
338N/A *) core: Do not allow internal redirects like the DirectoryIndex of mod_dir
338N/A to circumvent the symbolic link checks imposed by FollowSymLinks and
0N/A SymLinksIfOwnerMatch. [Nick Kew, Ruediger Pluem, William Rowe]
0N/A *) mod_proxy: Support environment variable interpolation in reverse
0N/A proxying directives. [Nick Kew]
0N/A *) core: Add the filename of the configuration file to the warning message
0N/A about the useless use of AllowOverride. PR 39992.
0N/A *) New SSLLogLevelDebugDump [ None (default) | IO (not bytes) | Bytes ]
1689N/A configures the I/O Dump of SSL traffic, when LogLevel is set to Debug.
0N/A The default is none as this is far greater debugging resolution than
0N/A the typical administrator is prepared to untangle. [William Rowe]
0N/A *) mod_disk_cache: If possible, check if the size of an object to cache is
0N/A within the configured boundaries before actually saving data.
0N/A *) mod_cache: Convert all values to seconds before comparing them when
1689N/A checking whether to send a Warning header for a stale response.
0N/A *) mod_disk_cache: Delete temporary files if they cannot be renamed to their
0N/A *) Worker and event MPMs: Remove improper scoreboard updates which were
0N/A performed in the event of a fork() failure. [Chris Darroch]
0N/A *) Add support for fcgi:// proxies to mod_rewrite.
0N/A loading of worker_score structure with mod_status, and remove unused
0N/A definitions relating to old life_status field.
1689N/A *) Remove allocation of memory for unused array of lb_score pointers
0N/A *) Add mod_proxy_fcgi, a FastCGI back end for mod_proxy.
0N/A [Garrett Rooney, Jim Jagielski, Paul Querna]
0N/A *) Event MPM: Fill in the scoreboard's tid field. PR 38736.
0N/A *) mod_charset_lite: Remove Content-Length when output filter can
0N/A invalidate it. Warn when input filter can invalidate it.
0N/A *) Authz: Add the new module mod_authn_core that will provide common
0N/A authn directives such as 'AuthType', 'AuthName'. Move the directives
1988N/A 'AuthType' and 'AuthName' out of the core module and merge mod_authz_alias
1988N/A into mod_authn_core. [Brad Nicholes]
0N/A *) Authz: Move the directives 'Order', 'Allow', 'Deny' and 'Satisfy'
0N/A into the new module mod_access_compat which can be loaded to provide
0N/A support for these directives.
0N/A *) Authz: Move the 'Require' directive from the core module as well as
0N/A add the directives '<SatisfyAll>', '<SatisfyOne>', '<RequireAlias>'
0N/A and 'Reject' to mod_authz_core. The new directives introduce '
AND/OR'
1689N/A logic into the authorization processing. [Brad Nicholes]
1689N/A *) Authz: Add the new module mod_authz_core which acts as the
1689N/A authorization provider vector and contains common authz
1689N/A directives. [Brad Nicholes]
1689N/A *) Authz: Renamed mod_authz_dbm authz providers from 'group' and
1689N/A 'file-group' to 'dbm-group' and 'dbm-file-group'. [Brad Nicholes]
1689N/A *) Authz: Added the new authz providers 'env', 'ip', 'host', 'all' to handle
1689N/A host-based access control provided by mod_authz_host and invoked
1689N/A through the 'Require' directive. [Brad Nicholes]
1689N/A *) Authz: Convert all of the authz modules from hook based to
1689N/A provider based. [Brad Nicholes]
1689N/A *) mod_cache: Add CacheMinExpire directive to set the minimum time in
1689N/A seconds to cache a document.
1689N/A *) Fix typo in ProxyStatus syntax error message.
1689N/A *) Asynchronous write completion for the Event MPM. [Brian Pane]
1689N/A *) Added an End-Of-Request bucket type. The logging of a request and
1689N/A the freeing of its pool are now done when the EOR bucket is destroyed.
1689N/A This has the effect of delaying the logging until right after the last
0N/A of the response is sent; ap_core_output_filter() calls the access logger
1689N/A indirectly when it destroys the EOR bucket. [Brian Pane]
1689N/A *) Rewrite of logresolve support utility: IPv6 addresses are now supported
1689N/A and the format of statistical output has changed. [Colm MacCarthaigh]
1689N/A *) Rewrite of ap_coreoutput_filter to do nonblocking writes [Brian Pane]
0N/A *) Added new connection states for handler and write completion
1689N/A *) mod_cgid: Refuse to work on Solaris 10 due to OS bugs. PR 34264.
0N/A *) Teach mod_ssl to use arbitrary OIDs in an SSLRequire directive,
1689N/A allowing string-valued client certificate attributes to be used for
0N/A access control, as in: SSLRequire "value" in OID("1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.1")
