2009-09-08rainbows: remove Rev monkey patch
rev 0.3.0 is out now so we don't need to monkey patch Rev anymore.
2009-08-19rainbows: HTTP keepalive/pipelining support
keepalive/pipelining absolutely does not make sense with classic Unicorn, but it does make sense when connections are cheap with Revactor. Of course any server that serves multiple clients concurrently within the same process is less robust anyways.
2009-08-19rainbows: avoid object creation overhead for ticker
While gettimeofday() isn't even a syscall on modern x86_64 Linux machines; Time objects aren't cheap. So avoid using time entirely as a fchmod argument and stick with 0s and 1s.
2009-08-19rainbows: enable murder_lazy_workers
The main loop ticks every second and we can chmod during that time to keep ourselves alive. If we're hosting some app that does stupid blocking calls, then our userspace scheduler will have no hope and our parent will nuke us for it.

2009-08-18rainbows: monkey-patch Rev::TCPListener for now
So we can reuse our existing TCPServer objects. Patches have already been submitted (but not yet accepted) to rev for upstream inclusion here: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/rev-talk/2009-August/000097.html

2009-08-18http_response: allow reentrancy
The overhead of the temporary array is too little to be worth worrying about...
2009-08-18examples/echo: "Expect:" value is case-insensitive
From RFC 2616, section 14.20: > Comparison of expectation values is case-insensitive for > unquoted tokens (including the 100-continue token), and is > case-sensitive for quoted-string expectation-extensions.
2009-08-18tee_input: allow using Revactor::TCP::Socket objects
The Revactor::TCP::Socket#read method without any arguments is more or less equivalent to TCPSocket#readpartial without an explicit buffer. Since we rely on the buffer being modified/replaced, monkey patch that object it to replace the buffer with our own since we rely on modifying the existing buffer passed to us.
2009-08-17Documentation updates
* Documented Unicorn::HttpParser API methods * Keep GPL2 (COPYING) as-is without RDoc formatting. * The auto-generated index.html is stupid, replace it with README which looks saner.

2009-08-16app/inetd: explicitly close pipe descriptors on CatBody#close
Since Rack permits body objects to have #close called on them, we can safely close our pipe readers immediately instead of waiting on the GC to close them (like we do for TeeInput tempfiles).
2009-08-15Remove explicit requires for Rack things
Rack is autoload-based and so are we.
2009-08-15Make launchers __END__-aware
I've noticed rackup has been __END__-aware as of 7b6046b764eafd332b3b2d9d93b3915c425fae54 in Rack upstream
2009-08-15TODO: remove keep-alive/pipelining
The code I was _about_ to commit to support them was too ugly and the performance benefit in real applications/clients is unproven. Support for these things also had the inevitable side effect of adding overhead to non-persistent requests. Worst of all, interaction with people tweaking TCP_CORK/TCP_NOPUSH suddenly becomes an order of magnitude more complex because of the _need_ to flush the socket out in between requests (for most apps). Aggressive pipelining can actually help a lot with a direct connection to Unicorn, not via proxy. But the applications (and clients) that would benefit from it are very few and moving those applications away from HTTP entirely would be an even bigger benefit. The C/Ragel parser will maintain keepalive support for now since I've always intended for that to be used in more general-purpose HTTP servers than Unicorn. For documentation purposes, the keep-alive/pipelining patch is included below in its entirety. I don't have the TCP_CORK/TCP_NOPUSH parts in there because that's when I finally gave up and decided it would not be worth supporting. diff --git a/lib/unicorn.rb b/lib/unicorn.rb index b185b25..cc58997 100644 --- a/lib/unicorn.rb +++ b/lib/unicorn.rb @@ -439,22 +439,24 @@ module Unicorn # once a client is accepted, it is processed in its entirety here # in 3 easy steps: read request, call app, write app response def process_client(client) + response = nil client.fcntl(Fcntl::F_SETFD, Fcntl::FD_CLOEXEC) - response = app.call(env = REQUEST.read(client)) - - if 100 == response.first.to_i - client.write(Const::EXPECT_100_RESPONSE) - env.delete(Const::HTTP_EXPECT) - response = app.call(env) - end + begin + response = app.call(env = REQUEST.read(client)) - HttpResponse.write(client, response) + if 100 == response.first.to_i + client.write(Const::EXPECT_100_RESPONSE) + env.delete(Const::HTTP_EXPECT) + response = app.call(env) + end + end while HttpResponse.write(client, response, HttpRequest::PARSER.keepalive?) + client.close # if we get any error, try to write something back to the client # assuming we haven't closed the socket, but don't get hung up # if the socket is already closed or broken.

2009-08-15http: support for "Connection: keep-alive"
ab still sends this with HTTP/1.0 requests, which is unfortunate, but synthetic benchmarks are good for marketing purposes!

2009-08-15const: remove unused constants
2009-08-15http_response: pass through unknown status codes
This lets clients can pass through newly-invented status codes that Rack does not know about.

2009-08-15GNUmakefile: Fix "install" target
2009-08-15http: fix warning when sizeof(off_t) == sizeof(long long)
We need to declare constants for 64-bit off_t explicitly with the "LL" suffix on 32-bit machines.
2009-08-15Drop the micro benchmarks
It's not worth the effort to keep the internal API consistent between non-bugfix versions.
2009-08-15tee_input: make interface more usable outside of Unicorn
TeeInput being needed is now (once again) an uncommon code path so there's no point in relying on global constants. While we're at it, allow StringIO to be used in the presence of small inputs; too.
2009-08-15http_request: reinstate empty StringIO optimization
This makes a noticeable difference on light GET/HEAD requests. Heck, even the tests run a few seconds faster.

2009-08-12http: freeze fields when creating them, always
Otherwise we'll be creating an extra garbage string because rb_hash_aset can't tell the string isn't being used elsewhere and creates a new frozen one.
2009-08-11http: add "HttpParser#keepalive?" method
This should be used to detect if a request can really handle keepalives and pipelining. Currently, the rules are: 1. MUST be a GET or HEAD request 2. MUST be HTTP/1.1 3. MUST NOT have "Connection: close" set This also reduces the amount of garbage we create by globalizing constants and using them whenever possible.

2009-08-10http: rename read_body to filter_body
This method is strictly a filter, it does no I/O so "read" is not an appropriate name to give it.

2009-08-09test_exec: wait for worker readiness
Otherwise Ruby could get confused and not be able to reap the process correctly (and thus wait a long time for timeout).
2009-08-09test_util: explicitly close tempfiles for GC-safety
Otherwise they might be picked up by the GC during the other tests (exposed by Ruby 1.9.1-p243).
2009-08-09http: join repeated headers with a comma
Since Rack requires a Hash object, this is joined in in accordance with rfc2616, section 4.2[1]. Of course, it's up to the framework or application to handle such requests. I could optimize this to avoid creating a single garbage String object, but I don't think it's common enough to worry about... [1] - http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec4.html#sec4.2
2009-08-09http: add test for invalid trailer
Just in case clients decide to get cute.
2009-08-09http: unit tests for overflow and bad lengths
We're bound by the maximum value of off_t when handling input bodies (we need to buffer to disk). Also ensure we stop bad clients that send us unparseable lengths.
2009-08-09Switch to Ragel/C-based chunk/trailer parser
This should be more robust, faster and easier to deal with than the ugly proof-of-concept regexp-based ones.
2009-08-09test_upload: extra CRLF is needed
Our current TrailerParser is liberal and does not require it, but the to-be-activated Ragel one is not.
2009-08-09http: preliminary chunk decoding
2009-08-09http: process Content-Length and Transfer-Encoding
Explicitly track if our request will need Content-Length or chunked body decoding.
2009-08-09http: generic C string vs VALUEs comparison function
The macro version lets us painlessly compare Ruby strings against constant C strings. It wraps a C version of the function which is necessary to avoid double evaluation while preventing the user from having to type sizeof or strlen.
