[Darius Davis <darius-abz free-range.com.au>] + + *) mod_deflate: Rework inflate output and deflate output filter to fix several + issues: Incorrect handling of flush buckets, potential memory leaks, + excessive memory usage in inflate output filter for large compressed + content. PR 39854. [Ruediger Pluem, Nick Kew, Justin Erenkrantz] + + *) mod_mem_cache: Memory leak fix: Unconditionally free the buffer. + [Davi Arnaut <davi haxent.com.br>] + + *) Allow mod_dumpio to log at other than DEBUG levels via + the new DumpIOLogLevel directive. [Jim Jagielski] + + *) rotatelogs: Improve error message for open failures. PR 39487. + [Joe Orton] + + *) mod_dbd: share per-request database handles across subrequests + and internal redirects [Chris Darroch] + + *) mod_dbd: key connection pools to virtual hosts correctly even when + ServerName is unset/unavailable [Graham Leggett] + + *) Better detection and clean up of ldap connection that has been + terminated by the ldap server. PR 40878. + [Rob Baily <rbaily servicebench com>] + + *) mod_mem_cache: Convert mod_mem_cache to use APR memory pool functions + by creating a root pool for object persistence across requests. This + also eliminates the need for custom serialization code. + [Davi Arnaut <davi haxent.com.br>] + + *) mod_authnz_ldap: Add an AuthLDAPRemoteUserAttribute directive. If + set, REMOTE_USER will be set to this attribute, rather than the + username supplied by the user. Useful for example when you want users + to log in using an email address, but need to supply a userid instead + to the backend. [Graham Leggett] + + *) mod_cgi and mod_cgid: Don't use apr_status_t error return + from input filters as HTTP return value from the handler. + PR 31579. [Nick Kew] + + *) mod_cache: Eliminate a bogus error in the log when a filter returns + AP_FILTER_ERROR. [Niklas Edmundsson <nikke acc.umu.se>] + + *) core: Fix issue which could cause piped loggers to be orphaned and never + terminate after a graceful restart. PR 40651. [Joe Orton, Ruediger Pluem] + + *) core: Fix address-in-use startup failure caused by corruption of the list + of listen sockets in some configurations with multiple generic Listen + directives. [Jeff Trawick] + + *) mod_headers: Support regexp-based editing of HTTP headers. [Nick Kew] + + *) mod_proxy: Add explicit flushing feature. When Servlet container sends AJP + body message with size 0, this means that Servlet container has asked for + an explicit flush. Create flush bucket in that case. This feature has been + added to the recent Tomcat versions without breaking the AJP protocol. + [Mladen Turk] + + *) mod_proxy_balancer: Set the new environment variable BALANCER_ROUTE_CHANGED + if a worker with a route different from the one supplied by the client + had been chosen or if the client supplied no routing information for + a balancer with sticky sessions. [Ruediger Pluem] + + *) mod_proxy_balancer: Add information about the route, the sticky session + and the worker used during a request as environment variables. PR 39806. + [Brian <brectanu gmail.com>] + + *) mod_proxy: Don't try to use dead backend connection. PR 37770. + [Olivier BOEL <ob dorrboel.com>] + + *) mod_proxy_balancer: Extract stickysession routing information contained as + parameter in the URL correctly. PR 40400. + [Ruediger Pluem, Tomokazu Harada <harada sysrdc.ns-sol.co.jp>] + + *) mod_proxy_ajp: Added cping/cpong support for the AJP protocol. + A new worker directive ping=timeout will cause CPING packet + to be send expecting CPONG packet within defined timeout. + In case the backend is too busy this will fail instead + sending the full header. [Mladen Turk] + + *) mod_disk_cache: Make sure that only positive integers are accepted + for the CacheMaxFileSize and CacheMinFileSize parameters in the + config file. PR39380. [Niklas Edmundsson <nikke acc.umu.se>] + + *) mod_cache: From RFC3986 (section 6.2.3.) if a URI contains an + authority component and an empty path, the empty path is to be equivalent + to "/". It explicitly cites the following four URIs as equivalents: + http://example.com + http://example.com/ + http://example.com:/ + http://example.com:80/ + [Davi Arnaut <davi haxent.com.br>] + + *) mod_cache: Don't cache requests with a expires date in the past; + otherwise mod_cache will always try to cache the URL. This bug + might lead to numerous rename() errors on win32 if the URL was + previously cached. [Davi Arnaut <davi haxent.com.br>] + + *) core: Deal with the widespread use of apr_status_t return values + as HTTP status codes, as documented in PR#31759 (a bug shared by + the default handler, mod_cgi, mod_cgid, mod_proxy, and probably + others). PR31759. [Jeff Trawick, Ruediger Pluem, Joe Orton] + + *) mod_ext_filter: Handle filter names which include capital letters. + PR 40323. [Jeff Trawick] + + *) mod_isapi: Avoid double trailing slashes in HSE_REQ_MAP_URL_TO_PATH + support. Also corrects the slashes for Windows. + PR 15993. [William Rowe] + + *) mod_isapi: Handle "HTTP/1.1 200 OK" style status lines correctly, the + token parser worked while the resulting length was misinterpreted. + PR 29098. [Brock Bland <bbland serena.com>] + + *) mod_isapi: Return 0 (failure) for more of the various ap_pass_brigade + attempts to stream the response at the client. Log these as well. + PR 30022, 40470. [William Rowe, Matt Eaton <asf divinehawk.com>] + + *) mod_isapi: Ensure we walk through all the methods the developer may have + employed to report their HTTP status result code. + PR 16637 30033 28089.

PR 40656. + [Larry Cipriani <lvc lucent.com>] + + *) The full server version information is now included in the error log at + startup as well as server status reports, irrespective of the setting + of the ServerTokens directive. ap_get_server_version() is now deprecated, + and is replaced by ap_get_server_banner() and ap_get_server_description(). + [Jeff Trawick] + + *) mod_proxy_balancer: Workers can now be defined as part of + a balancer cluster "set" in which members of a lower-numbered set + are preferred over higher numbered ones. [Jim Jagielski] + + *) mod_proxy_balancer: Workers can now be defined as "hot standby" which + will only be used if all other workers are unusable (eg: in + error or disabled). Also, the balancer-manager displays the election + count and I/O counts of all workers. [Jim Jagielski] + + *) mod_proxy_ajp: Close connection to backend if reading of request body + fails. PR 40310.
