7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * Revert to a 1.3 behavior and allow a non-file request to travel
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch through the request cycle. If any request gets to the core handler,
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch without a flag that this r->filename was tested by dir/file_walk,
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch then we 500 at the very end of the request cycle. This provides
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch authors of older modules better compatibility, while still improving
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch the security and robustness of 2.0. This does not remove the new
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch map_to_storage hook itself, but makes it optional for some cases.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch Status: still need to decide where this goes, OtherBill comments...

7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch we need to look at halting this in the 'default handler' case,
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch and that implies pushing the 'handler election' into the request
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen internal processing phase from the run request phase.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * There is a bug in how we sort some hooks, at least the pre-config
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch hook. The first time we call the hooks, they are in the correct
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch order, but the second time, we don't sort them correctly. Currently,
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch the modules/http/config.m4 file has been renamed to
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch modules/http/config2.m4 to work around this problem, it should moved
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch back when this is fixed. rbb
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * The Add...Filter and Set...Filter directives do not allow the
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen administrator to order filters, beyond the order of filename (mime)
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch extensions. It isn't clear if Set...Filter(s) should be inserted
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen before or after the Add...Filter(s) which are ordered by sequence of
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch filename extensions. Add...FilterByType will add to this quandry.
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen Some sort of resolution needs to be proposed,
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * mod_dir should normally redirect ALL directory requests which do
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch not include a trailing slash on the URI. However, if a "notes"
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch flag is set (say, via BrowserMatch), this behavior will be
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch disabled for non-GET requests.

7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * mod_negotiation will not serve a request when an early extention
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch is understood, but a later extention is not. e.g. if the request
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch index.html.bak is recieved, and negotition could find the file
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch index.html.bak.en, it still won't be served because the
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen ap-mime-exception-list will contain "index" and "bak", and the
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen string "index.bak" doesn't match "index.html.bak". Need to
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch review the ap-mime-exception-list component by component to be
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen allow these cases. [This could be part of a patch to allow the
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch name index.bak in the case above to match index.html.bak.en]
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * mod_negotiation needs a new option or directive, something like
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch ForceLanguagePriority, to fall back to the LanguagePriority
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen directive instead of returning a "no acceptable variant" error.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch Status: Bill has some code in his tree that accomplishes
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen this, and will commit it Friday after it's tested.
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen * Usability: Sanitize the MPM config directives. MaxClients in
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch the threaded MPM is totally misleading now as it has little to
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen do with limiting the number of clients (it limits the number
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen of child processes). Bill proposed nomenclature change to
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen something like "StartWorkers, MaxWorkers, etc." that could
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen apply to most all the MPMs (with some notable exceptions).
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch Bill would be happy with changing MaxClients to MaxServers
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch to make it agree with the operation of the StartServers
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * configure --enable-mods-shared=most option has issues. Example:
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch ./configure --enable-mods-shared=most
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch This builds mod_headers as a DSO (good) but builds mod_mime
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch as a compiled-in module (bad).
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * revamp the input filter semantics, per discussions since
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch February (and especially at the hackathon last
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch April). Specifically, ap_get_brigade will return a brigade with
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch *up to* a specific number of bytes, or a "line" of data. The
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch read may be blocking or nonblocking. ap_getline() will be
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen refactored into apr_brigade_getline(), and then DECHUNK can use
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen f->next (ap_getline will always read "top of input stack"). Also
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch fix the bug where request body content will end up closing the
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch connection (buggering up persistent conns).

7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan BoschRELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * Allow the DocumentRoot directive within <Location > scopes? This
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch allows the beloved (crusty) Alias /foo/ /somepath/foo/ followed
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch by a <Directory /somepath/foo> to become simply
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen <Location /foo/> DocumentRoot /somefile/foo (IMHO a bit more legible
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch and in-your-face.) This proposed change would not depricate Alias.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * add mod_gz to httpd-2.0 (in modules/experimental/)

7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch sees a null command string sometimes. The problem happens when
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch you access bugs.apache.org, then click on the "search the bug db"
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * Win32: Rotatelogs sometimes is not terminated when Apache
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch goes down hard. FirstBill was looking at possibly tracking the
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch child's-child processes in the parent process.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * Win32: Add a simple hold console open patch (wait for close or
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch the ESC key, with a nice message) if the server died a bad
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen death (non-zero exit code) in console mode.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch Resolution: bring forward same ugly hacks from 1.3.13-.20
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen * Port of mod_ssl to Apache 2.0:
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen The current porting state is summarized in modules/ssl/README. The
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen remaining work includes:
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch (1) stablizing/optimizing the SSL filter logic
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch (2) Enabling the various SSL caching mechanisms (shmcb, shmht)
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch (3) Enabling SSL extentions
bfdca13a8bafe19b7608e6abb13e71e93a601d0aPhil Carmody (4) Trying to seperate the https filter logic from mod_ssl -
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch This is to facilitate other modules that wish to use the https
bfdca13a8bafe19b7608e6abb13e71e93a601d0aPhil Carmody filter or the mod_ssl logic or both as required.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * Performance: Get the SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch optimization working in threaded. prefork's new design for how
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch to notice data on the pod should be sufficient.
0d73aae8da55fadb59c1fef7aa36d5e43f5f8840Phil Carmody * mod_tls is very specific to OpenSSL. Make the API calls
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen more generic to support other encryption libraries.
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen * Performance & Debug: Eliminate most (and perhaps all) of the
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch malloc/free calls in the bucket brigade code. Need some
0d73aae8da55fadb59c1fef7aa36d5e43f5f8840Phil Carmody light weight memory management functions that allow freeing

7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch bands, double free detection, etc. would be cool but certainly
f1fab6f1b9c1e983577ff745d9b6e74a2d8c6634Phil Carmody not a hard requirement.

f1fab6f1b9c1e983577ff745d9b6e74a2d8c6634Phil Carmody been discussed at length for months, but since
0d73aae8da55fadb59c1fef7aa36d5e43f5f8840Phil Carmody SMS is not being used anywhere else in the server,
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen several people expressed the opinion that we should
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch get rid of it entirely, meaning that the buckets
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch need their own memory management (free list) functions.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch Cliff will implement that this weekend so we at least
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch have something to look at/compare with.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * Eliminate unnecessary creation of pipes in mod_cgid
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * the autoconf setup should be fixed to default to using the
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch "Apache" layout from config.layout, and each variable settable
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch in a layout should be overridable on the command line. Plus,
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch what we do right now just doesn't seem to fully fit into how autoconf
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch works, eg. AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT issues.

7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * Win32: Migrate the MPM over to use APR thread/process calls. This
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch would eliminate some code in the Win32 branch that essentially
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch duplicates what is in APR.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * There are still a number of places in the code where we are
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch losing error status (i.e. throwing away the error returned by a
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch system call and replacing it with a generic error code)
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * Mass vhosting version of suEXEC.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * All DBMs suffer from confusion in support/dbmmanage (perl script) since
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch the dbmmanage employs the first-matched dbm format. This is not
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch necessarily the library that Apache was built with. Aught to
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen rewrite dbmmanage upon installation to bin/ with the proper library
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch for predictable mod_auth_db/dbm administration.
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * use apu_dbm in mod_auth_dbm

3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen Justin says: "Seems like this is already there, so should we just
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch remove the other DBM code in that file? If you want
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch to use gdbm, or dbm, etc, you should tell apr-util."
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch Will says: "bs - I may choose the fastest - most efficient native
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch dbm implementation, for shared proc caches, ssl session
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch caching, etc, but that has nothing to do with maintaining
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch a userlist via dbm, which has to remain readable between
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch builds/machines, etc. The use-multiple database schema
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch for apr-util would let us do this with just apr, though."
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * Fold mod_auth_db features back into mod_auth_dbm, and depricate it.

3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen Some additional items remaining:
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen - case_preserved_filename stuff
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch (use the new canonical name stuff?)
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen - find a new home for ap_text(_header)
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch - is it possible to remove the DAV: namespace stuff from util_xml?
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch * ap_core_translate() and its use by mod_mmap_static and mod_file_cache
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch are a bit wonky. The function should probably be exposed as a utility
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen function (such as ap_translate_url2fs() or ap_validate_fs_url() or
7b58c089a0711e5e874fbf24c03d890ed2eebd62Stephan Bosch something). Another approach would be a new hook phase after
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen "translate" which would allow the module to munge what the
3ed749924ed5215d84e0a095bc7d74ce3100e242Timo Sirainen translation has decided to do.
