To achieve host-path backend routing, we changed behaviour of
--backend-http2-connections-per-worker. It now sets the number of
HTTP/2 physical connections per pattern group if pattern is used in -b
option.
Fixes GH-292
-b option syntax is now <HOST>,<PORT>[;<PATTERN>[:...]]. The optional
<PATTERN>s specify the request host and path it is used for. The
<PATTERN> can contain path, host + path or host. The matching rule is
closely designed to ServeMux in Go programming language.
Since libev handles SIGCHLD, using waitpid in separate thread to wait
for the completion of fetch-ocsp-response script process is undefined.
This commit rewrite ocsp handling code so that it utilizes libev
ev_child watcher and perform ocsp update without thread.
It seems that we don't care about this since we don't change buffer
pointer between would-block write/read and next write/read. Somehow
we decided we need these fields. As a precaution, we set
SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER in SSL_set_mode() for both server
and client contexts.
When same SSL_CTX is used by multiple thread simultaneously we have to
setup some number of mutex locks for it. We could not check how this
locking affects scalability since we have 4 cores at best in our
development machine. Good side of sharing SSL_CTX across threads is
we can share session ID pool.
If --tls-ctx-per-worker is enabled, SSL_CTX is created per thread
basis and we can eliminate mutex locks. The downside is session ID is
no longer shared, which means if session ID generated by one thread
cannot be acceptable by another thread. But we have now session
ticket enabled and its keys are shared by all threads.
This option specifies files contains 48 random bytes to construct
session ticket key data. This option can be used repeatedly to
specify multiple keys, but only the first one is used to encrypt
tickets.
The nghttp2 library itself is still h2-14. To experiment with the
implementations to require h2-16 to test new features (e.g.,
prioritization), nghttp, nghttpx, nghttpd and h2load now support h2-16
as well as h2-14. Cleartext HTTP Upgrade is still limited to h2-14
however.
For HTTP/1 backend, -b option can be used several times to specify
multiple backend address. HTTP/2 backend does not support multiple
addresses and only uses first address even if multiple addresses are
specified.
This change rewrites logging system of nghttpx. Previously access log
and error log are written to stderr or syslog and there was no option
to change stderr to something else. With this change, file path of
access log and error log can be configured separately and logging to
regular file is now added. To support rotating log, if SIGUSR1 signal
is received by nghttpx, it closes the current log files and reopen it
with the same name. The format of access log is changed and has same
look of apache's. But not all columns are not supported yet.
Libevent Openssl filter is very inconvenient in various respect. The
most annoying thing is it somehow emits data when SSL_shutdown is
called. The reason we introduced this filter solution is drop
connection if TLS renegotiation is detected. This commit implements
renegotiation detection and drop connection without filtering.
Cipher suites are chosen by DHE and ECDHE ciphers + GCM (AEAD). Now
default cipher list is the one recommended by Mozilla web site. The
--honor-cipher-order option is removed and now it is always assumed.
The existing options --{read,write}-{rate,burst} are per connection.
The new options --worker-{read,write}-{rate,burst} are per worker
thread, which is overall rate limit of all connections worker handles.
4ed4efc does not disable TLS renegotiation at all, if client keeps
rengotiations without sending application data. In this change,
we intercept the raw incoming data from the client and if it is a
renegotiation, drop the connection immediately.
Using --cacert to load certificate for client certificate authentication
is problematic since, --cacert is also used for client mode.
This commit adds --verify-client-cacert option which specify the CA
certficate file used only for client certificate validation.
This change also removes the default certficate load function for
client certificate validation.
Use --dh-param-file option to specify a file including DH parameters
in PEM format.
For example, you can create DH parameters with 1024 bit key using
following command:
$ openssl dhparam -outform PEM -out dhparam.pem 1024
