1821N/APlease consult the following STATUS files for information
1821N/A * apachectl should revert to just being an init script and
1821N/A and allows any options to be passed through

1008N/A +1: Ken, *wrowe [they are PITAs on OSX]
1008N/A * If the parent process dies, should the remaining child processes
1821N/A "gracefully" self-terminate. Or maybe we should make it a runtime
1821N/A option, or have a concept of 2 parent processes (one being a

1821N/A latest code, let's continue tuning and testing)
1821N/ARELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
1821N/A * Returning invalid 304 errors when filters are present. [PR 9673]
1821N/A Message-ID: <Pine.GSO.4.44.0206061713320.3848-100000@lab26.lacfas.hec.ca>
1821N/A Status: We should set r->no_local_copy, but where can we set it?
1821N/A We must set it before the handlers are run so that the
0N/A appropriate handler can call ap_meets_conditions() before
0N/A generating the data.
1821N/A * server pushed CGI's not working. (Is this a showstopper??)
1821N/A Message-ID: <3CE15B85.2FF45121@apache.org>
1821N/A *
HP/UX 10.20: compile breakage in APR. Looks like it should be easy
1821N/A to fix, probably just some extraneous #include's that are fouling
1821N/A Jeff: See my reply and patch in the PR (and previous commit to
1821N/A stop using "pipe" as a field name). If patch is committed, we
1821N/A should be okay. I'll wait to see if the user tests the patch.
1821N/A * exec cmd and suexec arg-passing enhancements

1821N/A work items left to complete)
1821N/A * The 2.0.36 worker MPM graceless shutdown changes work but are
1821N/A a bit clunky on some platforms; eg, on Linux, the loop to
1821N/A join each worker thread seems to hang, and the parent ends up
1821N/A killing off the child with SIGKILL. But at least it shuts down.
1821N/A * --enable-mods-shared="foo1 foo2" is busted on Darwin. Pier
1821N/A posted a patch (Message-ID: <B8DBBE8D.575A%pier@betaversion.org>).
1821N/A * We do not properly substitute the prefix-variables in the configuration
1821N/A scripts or generated-configs. (
i.e. if sysconfdir is etc,
1821N/A * If any request gets through ap_process_request_internal() and is
1821N/A scheduled to be served by the core handler, without a flag that this
1821N/A end of the ap_process_request_internal() processing so sub_req-esters
1821N/A know this request cannot be run. This provides authors of older
1821N/A modules better compatibility, while still improving the security and
1821N/A Status: still need to decide where this goes, OtherBill comments...
1821N/A Message-ID: <065701c14526$495203b0$96c0b0d0@roweclan.net>
1821N/A [Deleted comments regarding the ap_run_handler phase, as irrelevant
1821N/A as BillS points out that "common case will be caught in
1821N/A and the issue is detecting this -before- we try to run the req.]
1821N/A gregames says: can this happen somehow without a broken module
1821N/A being involved? If not, why waste cycles trying to defend against
1821N/A potential broken modules? It seems futile.
0N/A wrowe counters: no, it shouldn't happen unless the module is broken.
1008N/A walk if the path was entirely invalid; and we can't do that either
0N/A or we break modules that are unwilling to hook map_to_storage.
0N/A * Rewrite core_output_filter. It is nearly impossible to support
1821N/A it with predictable results as it is implemented now.
1008N/A * With AP_MODE_EXHAUSTIVE in the core, it is finally clear to me
1008N/A how the Perchild MPM should be re-written. It hasn't worked
1008N/A correctly since filters were added because it wasn't possible to
1008N/A get the content that had already been written and the socket at
1821N/A the same time. This mode lets us do that, so the MPM can be
1821N/A * htpasswd blindly processes the file you give it, and does no
0N/A sanity checking before totally corrupting whatever file it was
1008N/A you thought you had. It should check the input file and bail
1008N/A if it finds non-comment lines that do not contain exactly 1
1008N/A Message-ID: <20020217150457.A31632@clove.org>
1008N/A * Can a static httpd be built reliably?
1008N/A Message-ID: <20020207142751.T31582@clove.org>
1008N/A * [Ken] Test suite failures:
1821N/A o worker is also failing some of the 'cgi' subtests
1008N/A Justin says: "Worker should be fine and passes httpd-test here.
1008N/A If you can provide evidence that it can be reproduced
1008N/A outside of httpd-test, then it's a showstopper. I
1008N/A think it's a perl or a httpd-test problem."
1008N/A * Usage of APR_BRIGADE_NORMALIZE in core_input_filter should be
0N/A Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.33.0201202232430.318-100000@deepthought.cs.virginia.edu>
1008N/A * There is a bug in how we sort some hooks, at least the pre-config
1008N/A hook. The first time we call the hooks, they are in the correct
1008N/A order, but the second time, we don't sort them correctly. Currently,
0N/A back when this is fixed. rbb
1821N/A Justin says: "Is this really a showstopper? This has been here
1821N/A forever. What's wrong? Does this have to do with
1821N/A Not a showstopper: Justin, BrianP, trawick, gregames
1821N/A administrator to order filters, beyond the order of filename (mime)
1821N/A filename extensions. At minimum, some sort of +-[0-10] syntax seems
1821N/A like the quickest fix for a 2.0 gold release.
1821N/A Justin says: "Could we delay this for a point release or 2.1?"
1821N/A Not a showstopper: justin, wrowe, trawick, stoddard, Jim, Ian, Aaron,
1008N/A * Get perchild to work on platforms other than Linux. This
1008N/A descriptors between vhost child groups. An API was proposed
1008N/A Message-ID: <20020111115006.K1529@clove.org>
1821N/A * Try to get libtool inter-library dependency code working on AIX.
1821N/A Message-ID: <cm3n10lx555.fsf@rdu163-40-092.nc.rr.com>
1821N/A Justin says: If we get it working on AIX, we can enable this
1821N/A on all platforms and clean up our build system
1821N/A Jeff says: I thought I tested a patch for you sometime in
1821N/A January that you were going to commit within a few
1821N/A * Handling of %2f in URIs. Currently both 1.3 and 2.0
1821N/A completely disallow %2f in the request URI path (see
1821N/A through in the query string, however. Roy says the
1821N/A original reason for disallowing it, from five years ago,
1821N/A was to protect CGI scripts that applied PATH_INFO to
1821N/A a filesystem location and which might be tricked by
1821N/A ..%2f..%2f(...). We *should* allow path-info of the
1821N/A Since we've revamped a lot of our processing of path
1821N/A segments, it would be nice to allow this, or at least
1821N/A allow it conditionally with a directive.
1821N/A * FreeBSD, threads, and worker MPM. All seems to work fine
1821N/A if you only have one worker process with many threads. Add
1821N/A a second worker process and the accept lock seems to be
1821N/A lost. This might be an APR issue with how it deals with
1821N/A the child_init hook (
i.e. the fcntl lock needs to be resynced).
1821N/A More examination and analysis is required.
1821N/A Status: This has also been reported on Cygwin.
1821N/A Message-ID: <3C2CC514.8EF3BED1@wapme-systems.de> (cygnus)
1821N/A Justin says: So, FreeBSD-CURRENT and Cywin have the same
1821N/A problem. Yum. If another platform has this
1821N/A with worker, this becomes a showstopper.
1821N/A Aaron says: I spent some time disecting this and have come to
1821N/A the conclusion that it is not a problem in the worker MPM
1821N/A (or at least, it is not isolated to a problem in worker).
1821N/A I'll list some of the problems I'm seeing in case someone
1821N/A else wants to pick up where I've left off:
1821N/A - Delivery of just about any signal to one of the child
1821N/A processes will send it into an infinite loop as well.
1821N/A - Even though the parent is spinning out of control,
1821N/A at first the child or children will appear to work
1821N/A properly. At times it is possible to get it into a state,
1821N/A however, where a request will hang until another concurrent
1821N/A request "kicks" the first, at which point the second will
1821N/A hang. My theory is that this has to do with the
1821N/A pthread_cond_*() implementation in FreeBSD, but it's still
1821N/A possible that it is in APR.
1821N/A Justin adds: Oh, FreeBSD threads are implemented entirely with
1821N/A select()/poll()/longjmp(). Welcome to the nightmare.
1821N/A So, that means a ktrace output also has the thread
1821N/A scheduling internals in it (since it is all the same to
1821N/A the kernel). Which makes it hard to distinguish between
1821N/A our select() calls and their select() calls.
1821N/A *bangs head on wall repeatedly* But, some of the libc_r
1821N/A files have a DBG_MSG #define. This is moderately helpful
1821N/A when used with -DNO_DETACH. The kernel scheduler isn't
1008N/A waking up the threads on a select(). Yum. And, I bet
1008N/A those decrementing select calls have to do with the
1008N/A scheduler. Time to brush up on our OS fundamentals.
1008N/A * There is increasing demand from module writers for an API
1821N/A that will allow them to control the server � la apachectl.
1821N/A Reasons include sole-function servers that need to die if
1821N/A an external dependency (
e.g., a database) fails, et cetera.
1821N/A Perhaps something in the (ever more abused) scoreboard?
1821N/A rbb: I don't believe the scoreboard is the correct mechanism
1821N/A for this. We already have a pipe that goes between parent
1821N/A and child for graceful shutdown events, along with an API that
1821N/A can be used to send a message down that pipe. In threaded MPMs,
1821N/A it is easy enough to make that one pipe be used for graceful
1821N/A and graceless events, and it is also easy to open that pipe
1821N/A to both parent and child for writing. Then we just need to
1821N/A figure out how to do graceless on non-threaded MPMs.
1821N/A * Allow the DocumentRoot directive within <Location > scopes? This
1821N/A and in-your-face.) DocumentRoot unset would be accepted [and would
1821N/A not permit content to be served, only virtual resources such as
1821N/A server-info or server-status.
1821N/A This proposed change would _not_ depricate Alias.
1821N/A * Win32: Rotatelogs sometimes is not terminated when Apache
1821N/A goes down hard. FirstBill was looking at possibly tracking the
1821N/A child's-child processes in the parent process.
1821N/A OtherBill asks, wasn't this fixed?
1821N/A stoddard: Not fixed. Shared scoreboard might offer a good
1821N/A way for the parent to keep track of 'other child' processes
1821N/A and whack them if the child goes down.
1821N/A Other thoughts on walking the process chain using the NT kernel
1821N/A have also been proposed on APR.
1821N/A * Win32: Add a simple hold console open patch (wait for close or
1821N/A the ESC key, with a nice message) if the server died a bad
1821N/A death (non-zero exit code) in console mode.
1821N/A Resolution: bring forward same ugly hacks from 1.3.13-.20
1821N/A This is not so simple. Any exit() from APR or other libraries
1821N/A can't be caught unless we add some sort of apr_exit(rv) with
1821N/A registered apr_atexit() fn's that have the return code as an
1008N/A argument to the registered fn.
0N/A * Eliminate unnecessary creation of pipes in mod_cgid
1008N/A * Platforms that do not support fork (primarily Win32 and AS/400)
1008N/A Architect start-up code that avoids initializing all the modules
0N/A in the parent process on platforms that do not support fork.
1008N/A would eliminate some code in the Win32 branch that essentially
1008N/A * There are still a number of places in the code where we are
1008N/A losing error status (
i.e. throwing away the error returned by a
1008N/A system call and replacing it with a generic error code)
1008N/A * Mass vhosting version of suEXEC.
1934N/A the dbmmanage employs the first-matched dbm format. This is not
1934N/A necessarily the library that Apache was built with. Aught to
1934N/A rewrite dbmmanage upon installation to bin/ with the proper library
1008N/A for predictable mod_auth_dbm administration.
1008N/A Questions; htdbm exists, time to kill dbmmanage, or does it remain
1008N/A useful as a perl dbm management example? If we keep it,
1008N/A do we address the issue above?
1821N/A Some additional items remaining:
1821N/A - case_preserved_filename stuff
1821N/A (use the new canonical name stuff?)
1821N/A - find a new home for ap_text(_header)
1821N/A - is it possible to remove the DAV: namespace stuff from util_xml?
1821N/A * ap_core_translate() and its use by mod_mmap_static and mod_file_cache
1821N/A are a bit wonky. The function should probably be exposed as a utility
1821N/A function (such as ap_translate_url2fs() or ap_validate_fs_url() or
1821N/A something). Another approach would be a new hook phase after
1821N/A "translate" which would allow the module to munge what the
1821N/A translation has decided to do.
1821N/A Status: Greg +1 (volunteers), Ryan +1
1934N/A calls ap_fixup_virutal_hosts(), ap_fini_vhost_config(), and
1821N/A ap_sort_hooks() [to reduce the logic in main()]
1821N/A * read the config tree just once, and process N times (as necessary)
1934N/A * (possibly) use UUIDs in mod_unique_id
and/or mod_usertrack
1821N/A * (possibly) port the bug fix for PR 6942 (segv when LoadModule is put
1934N/A into a VirtualHost container) to 2.0.
1934N/A * callers of ap_run_create_request() should check the return value
1934N/A for failure (Doug volunteers)
1934N/A * Win32: Get Apache working on Windows 95/98. The following work
1821N/A (at least) needs to be done:
1821N/A - Document warning that OSR2 is required (for Crypt functions, in
1821N/A rand.c, at least.) This could be resolved with an SSL library, or
1821N/A randomization in APR itself.
1821N/A actually works) and add in a splash of Win9x service code.
1821N/A * Fix the worker MPM to use POD to kill child processes instead
1008N/A of ap_os_killpg, regardless of how they should die. (Ryan Bloom)
1934N/A * Scoreboard structures could be changed in the future such that
1934N/A proper alignment is not maintained, leading to segfaults on
1934N/A some systems. Cliff posted a patch to deal with this issue but
1934N/A later recanted. See this message to dev@apr.apache.org:
1934N/ATODO ISSUES REMAINING IN MOD_SSL:
1821N/A * In order to use a DSO version of mod_ssl we have to link with
1934N/A -lssl and -lcrypto. A workaround is in place right now where the
1934N/A entire EXTRA_LIBS macro is being appended to the objects list, but
1821N/A this is a hack. We should either revamp the APACHE_CHECK_SSL_TOOLKIT
1821N/A autoconf function or come up with some other autoconf checks to
1821N/A search for libssl and libcrypto and properly add them to mod_ssl's
1821N/A * SSL renegotiations in combination with POST request
1821N/A * Port or dispose all code inside #if 0...#endif blocks that remain
1821N/A * Do we need SSL_set_read_ahead()?
1821N/A * the ssl_expr api is NOT THREAD SAFE. race conditions exist:
1821N/A -in ssl_expr_comp() if SSLRequire is used in .htaccess
1821N/A -is ssl_expr_eval() if there is an error
1821N/A * SSLRequire directive (parsing of) leaks memory
1821N/A * Diffie-Hellman-Parameters for temporary keys are hardcoded in
1821N/A "it is suggested that keys be changed daily or every 500
1821N/A transactions, and more often if possible."
1821N/A * ssl_var_lookup could be rewritten to be MUCH faster
1821N/A * CRL callback should be pluggable
1821N/A * session cache store should be pluggable
1821N/A * init functions should return status code rather than ssl_die()
1821N/A * the shmcb code should just align its memory segment rather than
1821N/A jumping through all the "safe" memcpy and memset hoops
1821N/A Experimental modules should eventually be be promoted to fully supported
1821N/A status or removed from the repository entirely (ie, the
1821N/A 'experiment' failed). This section tracks what needs to happen to
1821N/A get the modules promoted to fully supported status.
1821N/A * mod_cache: handle cache_control: no_cache "field_name" to enable
1821N/A cacheing the response w/o header "field_name"
1821N/A * mod_cache: Fix dependency on ATOMIC operators. Need
1821N/A APR_HAS_ATOMIC_* feature macros.
1821N/A * mod_disk_cache: Implement garbage collection
1934N/A status (num of entries, cache object properties, etc.).
1934N/A mod_status could be extended to query optional hooks defined
1821N/A by modules for the purpose of reporting module status.
1821N/A mod_cache (et. al.) could define optional hooks that are called
1821N/A to collect status. Status should be queryable by
1821N/A * mod_mem_cache: garbage collection. One strategy is to simply
1821N/A remove stale entries as we attempt to serve them. Another
1821N/A strategy is to kick off a GC thread that traverses the cache
1821N/A and preemptively remove stale entries. How to manage a
1821N/A cache that is full? Do LRU GC? Other? Bueller?

1008N/AOther bugs that need fixing:
1008N/A * ap_discard_request should be converted to use the bucket API
1008N/A directly rather than waste cycles copying buffers with the old API.
1008N/A * MaxRequestsPerChild measures connections, not requests.
1008N/A Until someone has a better way, we'll probably just rename it
1008N/A * Regex containers don't work in an intutive way
1008N/A Status: No one has come up with an efficient way to fix this
1008N/A behavior. Dean has suggested getting rid of regex containers
1008N/A OtherBill suggests: We at least seem to agree on eliminating
1008N/A the <Container ~ foo> forms, and using only
1008N/A <ContainerMatch foo> semantics.
1008N/A * SIGSEGV on Linux (glibc 2.1.2) isn't caught properly by a
1008N/A sigwaiting thread. We need to work around this, perhaps unless
1008N/A there is hope soon for a fixed glibc.
1008N/A needed. Apache 1.3 just never stashed "multipart" into
1008N/A r->content_type. We should probably follow suit since the
1008N/A byterange stuff doesn't want the rest of the code to see the
1008N/A multipart content-type; the other code should still think it is
1008N/A dealing with the <orig_ct> stuff.
1008N/A Status: Greg volunteers to investigate (esp. since he was most
1008N/A likely the one to break it :-)
