以下是2.0.32-beta版本以来的变动情况：
*) mod_rewrite: updated to use the new APR global mutex type.
[Aaron Bannert]
*) Fixes for mod_include errors on boundary conditions in which
" and directives [Brian Pane]
*) Fix some mod_include segfaults [Cliff Woolley, Brian Pane, Brad Nicholes]
*) Update the Redhat Layout to match Redhat version 7. PR BZ-7422
[Joe Orton]
*) add compat layer to support RSA SSLC 1.x and 2.x in mod_ssl
[Jon Travis, John Barbee, William Rowe, Ryan Bloom, Doug MacEachern]
*) Add a new parameter to the quick_handler hook to instruct
quick handlers to optionally do a lookup rather than actually
serve content. This is the first of several changes required fix
several problems with how quick handlers work with subrequests.
[Bill Stoddard]
*) worker MPM: Get MaxRequestsPerChild to work again. [Jeff Trawick]
*) [APR-related] The ordering of the default accept mutex method has
been changed to better match what's done in Apache 1.3. The ordering
is now (highest to lowest): pthread -> sysvsem -> fcntl -> flock.
[Jim Jagielski]
*) Ensure that the build/ directory is created when using VPATH.
[Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Add some popular types to the mime magic file. PR 7730.
[Linus Walleij , Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Remove the single-byte socket reads for CGI headers [Brian Pane]
*) When a proxied site was being served, Apache was replacing
the original site Server header with it's own, which is not
allowed by RFC2616. Fixed. [Graham Leggett]
*) Fix a mod_cgid problem that left daemon processes stranded
in some server restart scenarios. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Added exp_foo and rel_foo variables to config_vars.mk for
all Apache and Autoconf path variables (like --sysconfdir,
--sbindir, etc). exp_foo is the "expanded" version, which means
that all internal variable references have been interpolated.
rel_foo is the same as $exp_foo, only relative to $prefix if they
share a common path. [Aaron Bannert]
*) Fix some restart/terminate problems in the worker MPM. Don't
drop connections during graceful restart. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Change the header merging behaviour in proxy, as some headers
(like Set-Cookie) cannot be unmerged due to stray commas in
dates. [Graham Leggett]
*) Be more vocal about what AcceptMutex values we allow, to make
us closer to how 1.3 does it. [Jim Jagielski]
*) Get nph- CGI scripts working again. PRs 8902, 8907, 9983
[Jeff Trawick]
*) Upgraded PCRE library to latest version 3.9 [Brian Pane]
*) Add accessor function to set r-> content_type. From now on,
ap_rset_content_type() should be used to set r-> content_type.
This change is required to properly implement the
AddOutputFilterByType configuration directive.
[Bill Stoddard, Sander Striker, Ryan Bloom]
*) Add new M_FOO symbols for the WebDAV/DeltaV methods specified by
RFC 3253. Improved the method name/number mapping functions.
[Greg Stein]
*) remove sock_enable_linger from connection.c [Ian Holsman]
*) Fix for virtual host processing where the requested hostname
has a '.' at the end (PR 9187) [Ryan Cruse ]
*) mod_dav's APIs for REPORT response handling was changed so that
providers can generate the content directly into the output filter
stack, rather than buffering the response into memory. [Greg Stein]
*) Fix a hang condition with graceful restart and prefork MPM
in the situation where MaxClients is very high but
much fewer servers are actually started at the time of the
restart. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Small performance fixes for mod_include [Brian Pane]
*) Performance improvement for the error logger [Brian Pane]
*) Change configure so that Solaris 8 and above have
SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT defined by default.
according to sun people solaris 8+ doesn't have a thundering
herd problem [Ian Holsman]
*) Allow URIs specifying CGI scripts to include '/' at the end
(e.g., /cgi-bin/printenv/) on AIX and Solaris (and other OSs
which ignore '/' at the end of the names of non-directories).
PR 10138 [Jeff Trawick]
*) implement SSLSessionCache shmht and shmcb based on apr_rmm and
apr_shm. [Madhusudan Mathihalli ]
*) Fix apxs -g handling. Move config_vars.mk from the top build
directory to the build directory. PR 10163 [Jeff Trawick]
*) Fix some mod_include problems which broke evaluation of some
expressions. PR 10108 [Jeff Trawick]
*) Fix the calculation of request time in mod_status. [Stas Bekman]
*) Fix the calculation of thread_num in the worker score structure.
[Stas Bekman]
*) Use apr_atomic operations in managing the mod_mem_cache
cache_objects for SMP scalability. (see USE_ATOMICS
preprocessor directive in mod_file_cache)
[Bill Stoddard]
*) Add filehandle caching to mod_mem_cache. (see CACHE_FD
preprocessor directive in mod_file_cache)
[Bill Stoddard]
*) Implement prototype mod_disk_cache for use with mod_cache.
[Bill Stoddard]
*) Add a missing manualdir entry in the Debian config.layout.
[Thom May ]
*) Stop installing libtool for APR and tell APR where it should place
its copy of libtool (via our installbuildpath layout variable).
[Justin Erenkrantz]
*) New directive ProxyIOBufferSize. Sets the size of the buffer used
when reading from a remote HTTP server in proxy. [Graham Leggett]
*) Modify receive/send loop in proxy_http and proxy_ftp so that
should it be necessary, the remote server socket is closed before
transmitting the last buffer (set by ProxyIOBufferSize) to the
client. This prevents the backend server from being forced to hang
around while the last few bytes are transmitted to a slow client.
Fix the case where no error checking was performed on the final
brigade in the loop. [Graham Leggett]
*) Scrap CacheMaxExpireMin and CacheDefaultExpireMin. Change
CacheMaxExpire and CacheDefaultExpire to use seconds rather than
hours. [Graham Leggett, Bill Stoddard]
*) New Directive SSIUndefinedEcho. to change the '(none)' echoed
for a undefined variable. [Ian Holsman]
*) Proxy HTTP and CONNECT: Keep trying other addresses from the DNS
when we can't get a socket in the specified address family. We may
have gotten back an IPv6 address first and yet our system is not
configured to allow IPv6 sockets. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Be more careful about recursively removing CVS directories. Make
sure that we aren't cd'ing to their home directory first. PR: 9993
[Aaron Bannert, James LewisMoss ]
*) Add a missing errordir entry in the Debian config.layout. PR: 10067
[Dirk-Jan Faber , Aaron Bannert,
Thom May ]
*) Rename the filter ordering priorities. The recent filtering fixes
have showcased problems with their usage. Therefore, we need to
rename them to increase the clarity. (CONTENT-> RESOURCE,
HTTP_HEADER-> CONTENT_SET/PROTOCOL) [Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Fix a problem in the new --enable-layout functionality where
it wouldn't allow overrides from variables like --prefix,
--bindir, etc. [Thom May ]
*) Fix a bug in the core input filter for AP_MODE_EXHAUSTIVE. It
no longer hangs around waiting for the socket to close before
returning exhaustive data. [Aaron Bannert]
*) rename apr_exploded_time_t to apr_time_exp_t (as per renames pending)
[Thom May ]
*) Change mod_ssl to always do a full startup/teardown on restarts.
this allows mod_ssl to be added to a server that is already
running and makes it possible to add/change certs/keys after the
server has been started. [Doug MacEachern]
*) Introduce PassPhraseDialog "|/path/to/pipe" mechanism to mod_ssl.
This pipe must be a bidirectional 'console' style relay, which
mod_ssl prints all prompts to the pipe's stdin, and reads the
passphrases from the pipe's stdout. [William Rowe]
*) Fix bug where --sysconfdir and --localstatedir were being
ignored. [Thom May , Aaron Bannert]
PR 9888
*) Fix --enable-layout to work again. Caution: When specifying
--enable-layout, common arguments like --prefix, --exec-prefix,
etc. will be ignored and the settings from the layout will be
used instead. [Thom May , Aaron Bannert]
PR 9124, 9873, 9885
*) New Directive for mod_proxy: ProxyRemoteMatch. This provides
regex pattern matching for the determination of which requests
to use the remote proxy for. [Jim Jagielski]
*) Fix CustomLog bytes-sent with HTTP 0.9. [Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Prevent Apache from ignoring SIGHUP due to some lingering 1.3
cruft in piped logs and rewritemap child processes.
[William Rowe]
*) All instances of apr_lock_t have been removed and converted
to one of the following new lock APIs: apr_thread_mutex.h,
apr_proc_mutex.h, or apr_global_mutex.h. No new code should
use the apr_lock.h API, as the old API will soon be deprecated.
[Aaron Bannert]
*) Merged in changes to mod_ssl up through 2.8.7-1.3.23.
[Ralf S. Engelschall, Cliff Woolley]
*) mod-include: make it handle flush'es and fix the 'false-alarm'
[Justin Erenkrantz, Brian Pane, Ian Holsman]
*) ap_get_*_filter_handle() functions to allow 3rd party modules
to lookup filter handles so they can bypass the filter name
lookup when adding filters to a request (via ap_add_*_filter_handle())
[Ryan Morgan ]
*) Fix for multiple file buckets on Win32, where the first file
bucket would cause the immediate closure of the socket on any
non-keepalive requests. [Ryan Morgan ]
*) Correct Win32 failure of mmap of a segment beyond start of the
file; fixes large SSL and similar transfers. [William Rowe]
PR 9898
*) Implement apr_proc_detach changes and allow -DNO_DETACH in the
multi-process mode to not "daemonize" while detaching from the
controlling terminal. This is necessary for Apache to work with
process-management tools like AIX's "System Resource Controller"
as well as Dan Bernstein's "daemontools".
[Jos Backus , Aaron Bannert]
*) Convert mod_auth_digest to use the new apr_global_mutex_t
type. [Aaron Bannert]
*) fix bug in mod-include where it wouldn't send a unmatched
part if it was at the end of a bucket [Ian Holsman]
*) worker MPM: Improve logging of errors with the interface between
the listener thread and worker threads. [Jeff Trawick]
