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.
Specify proxy URI in the form http://[USER:PASS]PROXY:PORT. USER and
PASS are optional and if they exist they must be properly
percent-encoded. This proxy is used when the backend connection is
SPDY. First, make a CONNECT request to the proxy and it connects to
the backend on behalf of shrpx. This forms tunnel. After that, shrpx
performs SSL/TLS handshake with the downstream through the tunnel. The
timeouts when connecting and making CONNECT request can be specified
by --backend-read-timeout and --backend-write-timeout options.
With --client-mode option, shrpx now accepts unencrypted HTTP
connections and communicates with backend server in SPDY. In short,
this is the "reversed" operation mode against normal mode. This may
be useful for testing purpose because it can sit between HTTP client
and shrpx "normal" mode.
To distinguish the to-be-installed programs and non-installable
example source code, the former programs, spdycat, spdydyd and shrpx,
were moved to src directory. spdynative was removed from Makefile
because it does not appeal to any users much.
