2010-02-24unicorn_rails: avoid namespace conflicts in config.ru
We'll use our Rails-only version of Unicorn.builder so the lambda is safe without another binding.
2010-02-24unicorn_rails: make this Rails 3-compatible
The stock config/boot.rb file in a Rails 3 app is much lighter and does not export any Rails/RAILS_* constants, so we'll wait until we get config/environment.rb loaded.
2010-02-22util: simplify chown_logs
no point in using "next" here
2010-02-22avoid needlessly preallocating read buffer
Copy-on-write will always invalidate it regardless, and the first request is likely to be slow for any app.
2010-02-19update TODO
* Bourne shell - TAP test suite stolen from Rainbows! * tests currently pass under FreeBSD 7.2
2010-02-18.gitignore: add "*.o" object files
This was always in my .git/info/exclude so I never noticed until now.
2010-02-18http: document CFLAGS used for development
this file may be sourced and used later, too
2010-02-18http: const correctness fixes
Not fun, but maybe this can help us spot _real_ problems more easily in the future.
2010-02-18http: cleanup globals and ABI namespace
* init_globals() is a static function, avoid conflicting with any potential libraries out there... * mUnicorn and cHttpParser do not need to be static globals they're not used outside of Init_unicorn_http().
2010-02-18http: avoid signedness warnings
We never come close to the signed limits anywhere, so it should be safe either way, but make paranoid compiler settings less noisy if possible.
2010-02-18Unicorn::builder to wrap our Rack::Builder usage
This should make it easier to reuse code in derivative servers like Rainbows! and Zbatery. Unfortunately, we can't depend on Rack::Builder/Rack::Server yet since Rack 1.1 just got them and notable frameworks (like Rails 2.3.x) do not fully work with Rack 1.1 yet). This also fixes subtle issue with config.ru files that could have variables that conflict with the Unicorn-specific namespace (this bug still affects "unicorn_rails", which could use some reworking as well).
2010-02-18graceful handling of bad config.ru + HUP w/ preload_app
If preload_app is true and Unicorn is HUP-ed with a bad config.ru, then it would be possible to have Unicorn in a bad state and constantly throw 500 errors. We now detect syntax and load errors since they're likely to appear in modified Rackup files, and will restore the original app if reloading failed.
2010-02-17test-lib: don't croak if "error" is in the test name
2010-02-17tests: import basic TAP library from Rainbows!
2010-02-17GNUmakefile: remove old, lower-case variables
We started using upper-case variables a while back, so just remove the backwards-compatibility clutter.
2010-02-13http: fix memory leak exposed in concurrent servers
First off, this memory leak DOES NOT affect Unicorn itself. Unicorn allocates the HttpParser once and always reuses it in every sequential request. This leak affects applications which repeatedly allocate a new HTTP parser. Thus this bug affects _all_ deployments of Rainbows! and Zbatery. These servers allocate a new parser for every client connection. I misread the Data_Make_Struct/Data_Wrap_Struct documentation and ended up passing NULL as the "free" argument instead of -1, causing the memory to never be freed. From README.EXT in the MRI source which I misread: > The free argument is the function to free the pointer > allocation. If this is -1, the pointer will be just freed. > The functions mark and free will be called from garbage > collector.
2010-02-09reorder commonly accessed HttpServer struct members
Earlier elements of a Struct (in both Ruby and C) are faster to access, so put more-often accessed elements like :app first. This does not noticeably affect most applications, but may matter to some micro benchmarks somewhere...
2010-02-08test_http_parser_ng: remove redundant "coding: binary"
we've already got "-*- encoding: binary -*-" in everything
2010-02-08examples/init.sh: add "reopen-logs" target
2010-02-08examples/init.sh: reenable set -u
This may be used as a basis of other scripts so we need to stash $1 before we "set -u"
2010-02-08Rakefile: autoload rubygems
2010-01-25KNOWN_ISSUES: background threads + Logger monkey patch
Thanks to Michael Guterl for informing us of the issues and testing the monkey patch.
2010-01-19initialize signal handlers before writing pid file
This prevents trigger-happy init scripts from reading the pid file (and thus sending signals) to a not-fully initialized master process to handle them. This does NOT fix anything if other processes are sending signals prematurely without relying on the presence of the pid file. It's not possible to prevent all cases of this in one process, even in a purely C application, so we won't bother trying. We continue to always defer signal handling to the main loop anyways, and signals sent to the master process will be deferred/ignored until Unicorn::HttpServer#join is run.
2010-01-19remove unused MAX_HEADER constant
This constant hasn't been in active use in our Ruby code for ages now. All HTTP header constraints are defined in the C/Ragel HTTP parser and we have tests for them, so there's no need to repeat ourselves.
2010-01-19bump version to 0.97.0pre
There may be some large-ish internal changes for 0.97.0
2010-01-19TODO: test suite passes under FreeBSD
2010-01-19FAQ entry for Rails 2.3.x + Rack 1.1.x incompatibility
2010-01-07unicorn 0.96.0 - Rack 1.1 bump v0.96.0
This release includes small changes for things allowed by Rack 1.1. It is also now easier to detect if daemonized process fails to start. Manpages received some minor updates as well. Rack 1.1 allowed us to make the following environment changes: * "rack.logger" is now set to the "logger" specified in the Unicorn config file. This defaults to a Logger instance pointing to $stderr. * "rack.version" is now at [1,1]. Unicorn remains compatible with previous Rack versions if your app depends on it. While only specified since Rack 1.1, Unicorn has always exposed "rack.input" in binary mode (and has ridiculous integration tests that go outside of Ruby to prove it!).
2010-01-07Merge branch 'rack-1.1'
* rack-1.1: http_response: disallow blank, multi-value headers local.mk.sample: use rack-1.1.0 bump "rack.version" env to [1,1] set env["rack.logger"] for applications
2010-01-05http_response: disallow blank, multi-value headers
The HeaderHash optimizations in Rack 1.1 interact badly with Rails 2.3.5 (and possibly other frameworks/apps) which set multi-value "Set-Cookie" headers without relying on the proper methods provided by Rack::Utils. While this is an issue with Rails not using properly, there may be similar apps that make this mistake and Rack::Lint does not guard against it. Rack-ML-Ref: <20100105235845.GB3377@dcvr.yhbt.net>
2010-01-05local.mk.sample: use rack-1.1.0
2010-01-05bump Rails test to 2.3.5
Rails 2.3.3.1 is ancient
2010-01-05Merge branch 'ready_pipe'
* ready_pipe: launcher: no point in sync-ing $stdin launcher: fix compatibility with other servers clarify errors when listeners fail to bind launcher: descriptive error message on startup failure Avoid leaking ready pipe file descriptor to workers exit with failure if master dies when daemonized
2010-01-05NEWS: generation depends on .manifest
2009-12-29launcher: no point in sync-ing $stdin
Inspection of the MRI source reveals that IO#sync=true only appears to only apply for writes. Though it could eventually make sense to disable read buffering by setting IO#sync=true, it does not appear to happen. Of course we never read from $stdin anyways....
2009-12-29launcher: fix compatibility with other servers
Rainbows! does not yet know about ready_pipe, and will probably not know about it until Unicorn 0.97.0
2009-12-28clarify errors when listeners fail to bind
When using multiple listeners, the log messages can be potentially misleading as to which listener fails to bind: Before: INFO -- : unlinking existing socket=/tmp/unicorn.sock INFO -- : listening on addr=/tmp/unicorn.sock fd=3 unicorn/socket_helper.rb:110:in `initialize': Permission denied - bind(2) (Errno::EACCES) After: INFO -- : unlinking existing socket=/tmp/openxdms.sock INFO -- : listening on addr=/tmp/openxdms.sock fd=3 FATAL -- : error adding listener addr=0.0.0.0:84 unicorn/socket_helper.rb:110:in `initialize': Permission denied - bind(2) (Errno::EACCES)

2009-12-28launcher: descriptive error message on startup failure
Rather than erroring out with a non-descript EOFError, show a warning message telling users to check the logs instead. Reported-by: Iñaki Baz Castillo mid=200912281350.44760.ibc@aliax.net
2009-12-27Avoid leaking ready pipe file descriptor to workers
Otherwise the original spawner process may not notice the close as it's still being shared by workers. While we're at it, avoid confusing the original spawner by using readpartial instead of sysread.
2009-12-26exit with failure if master dies when daemonized
This behavior change also means our grandparent (launched from a controlling terminal or script) will wait until the master process is ready before returning. Thanks to Iñaki Baz Castillo for the initial implementations and inspiration.
2009-12-26bump "rack.version" env to [1,1]
This will match what's in Rack the 1.1.0 release.
2009-12-25doc: update manpages since we got new features
working_directory and Worker#user got added over time, so recommending Dir.chdir and Process::UID.change_privilege is bad.
2009-12-25bin/*: shebangs should be educational
2009-12-21unicorn 0.95.3 v0.95.3
The HTTP parser now allows (but does not parse) the userinfo component in the very rare requests that send absoluteURIs. Thanks to Scott Chacon for reporting and submitting a test case for this fix. There are also minor documentation updates and tiny cleanups.
2009-12-21build: favor upper-case variable names in Makefiles
It should be more compatible and easier to express that they're overridable to hackers. We keep the lower-case versions around in case people depend on them.
2009-12-21tee_input: rdoc for all public methods
2009-12-21GNUmakefile: nuke *.rbc files when generating RDoc
TODO: fix RDoc to ignore *.rbc files
2009-12-19http: allow userinfo component in absoluteURIs
This is not explicitly specified or listed as an example in in rfc2616. However, rfc2616 section 3.2.1 defers to rfc2396[1] for the definition of absolute URIs, so the userinfo component should be allowable, even if it does not make any sense. In the real world, previous versions of Mongrel used URI.parse() and thus allowed userinfo, so we also have precedence to allow userinfo to be compatible *in case* our interpretation of the RFCs is incorrect. This change is unfortunately needed because *occasionally* real clients rely on them. Reported-by: Scott Chacon [1] rfc3986 obsoletes rfc2396, but also includes userinfo
2009-12-14set env["rack.logger"] for applications
rack.git upstream has it, so it will likely be in Rack 1.1
