nghttp2_submit_shutdown_notice() is used to notify the client that
graceful shutdown is started. We expect that after this call, the
server application should send another GOAWAY using
nghttp2_submit_goaway() with appropriate last_stream_id. In this
commit, we also added nghttp2_session_get_last_proc_stream_id(), which
can be used as last_stream_id parameter.
This commit implements graceful shutdown in nghttpx. The integration
test for graceful shutdown is also added.
Previously when requests are issued to HTTP/2 downstream connection,
but it turns out that connection is down, handlers of those requests
are deleted. In some situations, we only know connection is down when
we write something to network, so we'd like to handle this kind of
situation in more robust manner. In this change, certain seconds
passed after last network activity, we first issue PING frame to
downstream connection before issuing new HTTP request. If writing
PING frame is failed, it means connection was lost. In this case,
instead of deleting handler, pending requests are migrated to new
HTTP2/ downstream connection, so that it can continue without
affecting upstream connection.
This commit limits the number of concurrent HTTP/1 downstream
connections to same host. By defualt, it is limited to 8 connections.
--backend-connections-per-frontend option was replaced with
--backend-http1-connections-per-host, which changes the maximum number
of connections per host. This limitation only kicks in when h2 proxy
is used (-s option).
This commit adds functionality to customize access logging format in
nghttpx. The format variables are inspired by nginx. The default
format is combined format.
This is not obvious but it makes intermediaries flush and forward DATA
frame boundary without excessive buffering. Since we have different
TCP connections frontend and backend, this may not work. This is
still experimental.
Use the same behaviour the current Google server does: start with 1300
TLS record size and after transmitting 1MiB, change record size to
16384. After 1 second idle time, reset to 1300. Only applies to
HTTP/2 and SPDY upstream connections.
