The HTTP parser is fix for oddly-aligned reads of trailers (this technically affects headers, too, but is highly unlikely due to our non-support of slow clients). This allows our HTTP parser to better support very slow clients when used by other servers (like Rainbows!). Fortunately this bug does not appear to lead to any invalid memory accesses (and potential arbitrary code execution). FreeBSD (and possibly other *BSDs) support is improved and and all the test cases pass under FreeBSD 7.2. Various flavors of GNU/Linux remains our primary platform for development and production. New features added include the "working_directory" directive in the configurator . Even without specifying a "working_directory", symlink-aware detection of the current path no longer depends on /bin/sh so it should work out-of-the-box on FreeBSD and Solaris and not just systems where /bin/sh is dash, ksh93 or bash. User-switching support is finally supported but only intended for use in the after_fork hook of worker processes. Putting it in the after_fork hook allows allows users to set things like CPU affinity[1] on a per-worker basis before dropping privileges. The master process retains all privileges it started with. The ENV["RACK_ENV"] (process-wide) environment variable is now both read and set for `unicorn' in the same way RAILS_ENV is used by `unicorn_rails'. This allows the Merb launcher to read ENV["RACK_ENV"] in config.ru. Other web servers already set this and there may be applications or libraries that already rely on this de facto standard. Eric Wong (26): cleanup: avoid redundant error checks for fstat test_helper: connect(2) may fail with EINVAL GNUmakefile: fix non-portable tar(1) usage tests: provide a pure Ruby setsid(8) equivalent more portable symlink awareness for START_CTX[:cwd] test_signals: avoid portability issues with fchmod(2) cleanup error handling and make it less noisy Do not override Dir.chdir in config files configurator: add "working_directory" directive configurator: working_directory is expanded configurator: set ENV["PWD"] with working_directory, too configurator: working_directory affects pid, std{err,out}_paths configurator: update documentation for working_directory TODO: remove working_directory bit, done Util.reopen_logs: remove needless Range worker: user/group switching for after_fork hooks Fix autoload of Etc in Worker for Ruby 1.9 bin/unicorn: allow RACK_ENV to be passed from parent tests for RACK_ENV preservation http: allow headers/trailers to be written byte-wise http: extra test for bytewise chunked bodies tee_input: do not clobber trailer buffer on partial uploads test_exec: ensure master is killed after test Util::tmpio returns a TmpIO that responds to #size TODO: remove user-switching bit, done unicorn 0.94.0 Wayne Larsen (1): bin/unicorn: set ENV["RACK_ENV"] on startup [1] - Unicorn does not support CPU affinity directly, but it is possible to load code that allows it inside after_fork hooks, or even just call sched_tool(8).

This release mainly works around BSD stdio compatibility issues that affect at least FreeBSD and OS X. While this issues was documented and fixed in [ruby-core:26300][1], no production release of MRI 1.8 has it, and users typically upgrade MRI more slowly than gems. This issue does NOT affect 1.9 users. Thanks to Vadim Spivak for reporting and testing this issue and Andrey Stikheev for the fix. Additionally there are small documentation bits, one error handling improvement, and one minor change that should improve reliability of signal delivery. Andrey Stikheev (1): workaround FreeBSD/OSX IO bug for large uploads Eric Wong (7): DESIGN: address concerns about on-demand and thundering herd README: alter reply conventions for the mailing list configurator: stop testing for non-portable listens KNOWN_ISSUES: document Rack gem issue w/Rails 2.3.2 stop continually resends signals during shutdowns add news bodies to site NEWS.atom.xml configurator: fix broken example in RDoc Suraj N. Kurapati (1): show configuration file path in errors instead of '(eval)' [1] http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/2267
2009-09-14CONTRIBUTORS: fix capitalization for why
He contributed to Mongrel back in the day and isn't around Ruby anymore, but at least get his preferred (lack-of) capitalization right...
2009-03-18Documentation updates, prepare for 0.2.0
2009-03-09Documentation updates
Reformat README to avoid preformatted text. Document signal handling in SIGNALS. Split out DESIGN, it's probably not as useful to end-users Update CONTRIBUTORS LICENSE: copyright is for me (Eric Wong), not Zed since this is a Mongrel fork.
