2009-08-06http_response: pass through unknown status codes
Rack::Utils::HTTP_STATUS_CODES does not define all status codes that are assigned by IANA nor does it handle experimental/unknown/ad-hoc status codes. So fall back to blindly accepting the status code as given by the application and hope it works.

2009-07-19app/exec_cgi: fix 1.9 compatibility
"/dev/null" must be opened in binary mode for Rack-compliance. Additionally, avoid '' to create an empty string and use Unicorn::Z instead.
2009-07-19Remove core Tempfile dependency (1.9.2-preview1 compat)
With the 1.9.2preview1 release (and presumably 1.9.1 p243), the Ruby core team has decided that bending over backwards to support crippled operating/file systems was necessary and that files must be closed before unlinking. Regardless, this is more efficient than using Tempfile because: 1) no delegation is necessary, this is a real File object 2) no mkdir is necessary for locking, we can trust O_EXCL to work properly without unnecessary FS activity 3) no finalizer is needed to unlink the file, we unlink it as soon as possible after creation.

2009-07-09always set FD_CLOEXEC on sockets post-accept()
FD_CLOEXEC is not guaranteed to be inherited by the accept()-ed descriptors even if the listener socket has this set. This can be a problem with applications that fork+exec long running background processes. Thanks to Paul Sponagl for helping me find this.
2009-07-08Minor cleanups to core
(cherry picked from commit ec70433f84664af0dff1336845ddd51f50a714a3)
2009-07-08Re-add support for non-portable socket options
Now that we support tunnelling arbitrary protocols over HTTP as well as "100 Continue" responses, TCP_NODELAY actually becomes useful to us. TCP_NODELAY is actually reasonably portable nowadays; even. While we're adding non-portable options, TCP_CORK/TCP_NOPUSH can be enabled, too. Unlike some other servers, these can't be disabled explicitly/intelligently to force a flush, however. However, these may still improve performance with "normal" HTTP applications (Mongrel has always had TCP_CORK enabled in Linux). While we're adding OS-specific features, we might as well support TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT in Linux and FreeBSD the "httpready" accept filter to prevent abuse. These options can all be enabled on a per-listener basis. (cherry picked from commit 563d03f649ef31d2aec3505cbbed1e015493b8fc)
2009-07-08Retry listen() on EADDRINUSE 5 times ever 500ms
This number of retries and delay taken directly from nginx (cherry picked from commit d247b5d95a3ad2de65cc909db21fdfbc6194b4c9)
2009-07-08Unbind listeners as before stopping workers
This allows another process to take our listeners sooner rather than later. (cherry picked from commit 8c2040127770e40e344a927ddc187bf801073e33)

2009-05-28Consistent logger assignment for multiple objects
Bah, it's so much busy work to deal with this as configuration option. Maybe I should say we allow any logger the user wants, as long as it's $stderr :P
2009-05-28Avoid instance variables lookups in a critical path
Make us look even better in "Hello World" benchmarks! Passing a third parameter to avoid the constant lookup for the HttpRequest object doesn't seem to have a measurable effect.
2009-05-28Make our HttpRequest object a global constant
This should be faster/cheaper than using an instance variable since it's accessed in a critical code path. Unicorn was never designed to be reentrant or thread-safe at all, either.
2009-05-28SIGHUP reloads app even if preload_app is true
This makes SIGHUP handling more consistent across different configurations, and allows togging preload_app to take effect when SIGHUP is issued.
2009-05-28Fix potential race condition in timeout handling
There is a potential race condition in closing the tempfile immediately after SIGKILL-ing the child. So instead just close it when we reap the dead child. Some some versions of Ruby may also not like having the WORKERS hash being changed while it is iterating through each_pair, so dup the hash to be on the safe side (should be cheap, since it's not a deep copy) since kill_worker() can modify the WORKERS hash. This is somewhat of a shotgun fix as I can't reproduce the problem consistently, but oh well.

2009-05-25Switch to autoload to defer requires
This should prevent Rack from being required too early on so "-I" being passed through the unicorn command-line can modify $LOAD_PATH for Rack
2009-05-25Only refresh the gem list when building the app
No point in refreshing the list of gems unless the app can actually be reloaded.
2009-05-25Refresh Gem list when building the app
On application reloads, Gems installed by the Ruby instance may be different than when Unicorn started. So when preload_app is false, HUP-ing Unicorn will always refresh the list of Gems before loading the application code.

2009-05-22http_response: allow string status codes
Rack::Lint says they just have to work when to_i is called on the status, so that's what we'll do.
2009-05-22Enforce minimum timeout at 3 seconds
2 seconds is still prone to race conditions under high load. We're intentionally less accurate than we could be in order to reduce syscall and method dispatch overhead.

2009-05-22Preserve 1.9 IO encodings in reopen_logs
Ensure we preserve both internal and external encodings when reopening logs.
2009-05-22Fix a warning about @pid being uninitialized
2009-05-22Ignore unhandled master signals in the workers
This makes it easier to use "killall -$SIGNAL unicorn" without having to lookup the correct PID.
2009-05-22Safer timeout handling and test case
Timeouts of less than 2 seconds are unsafe due to the lack of subsecond resolution in most POSIX filesystems. This is the trade-off for using a low-complexity solution for timeouts. Since this type of timeout is a last resort; 2 seconds is not entirely unreasonable IMNSHO. Additionally, timing out too aggressively can put us in a fork loop and slow down the system. Of course, the default is 60 seconds and most people do not bother to change it.
2009-05-22app/old_rails: correctly log errors in output
"out" was an invalid variable in that context...
2009-05-22app/exec_cgi: GC prevention
Don't allow newly created IO objects to get GC'ed and subsequently close(2)-ed. We're not reopening the {$std,STD}{in,out,err} variables since those can't be trusted to have fileno 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
2009-05-13privatize constants only used by old_rails/static
Unicorn proper no longer needs these constants, so don't bother with them.
2009-05-13http_response: allow string status codes
Rack::Lint says they just have to work when to_i is called on the status, so that's what we'll do.
2009-05-13Require Rack for HTTP Status codes
Preventing needless duplication since Rack already has these codes for us. Also, put the status codes in HttpResponse since nothing else needs (or should need) them.
2009-05-12Reopen master logs on SIGHUP, too
There may be other logs opened if preload_app is true besides stderr/stdout paths. So err on the safe side and reopen everything.
2009-05-11exec_cgi: don't assume the body#each consumer is a socket
If we're using middleware that pushes the body into an array, bad things will happen if we're clobbering the string for each iteration of body#each.
2009-05-11HttpRequest::DEF_PARAMS => HttpRequest::DEFAULTS
Give this a more palatable name and unfreeze it, allowing users to modify it more easily.
2009-05-10Avoid killing sleeping workers
This used to happen on machines that were coming out of suspend/hibernation.
2009-05-10Enforce minimum timeout at 3 seconds
2 seconds is still prone to race conditions under high load. We're intentionally less accurate than we could be in order to reduce syscall and method dispatch overhead.
2009-05-10app/exec_cgi: use explicit buffers for read/sysread
This reduces garbage generation to improve performance. Rack 1.0 allows InputWrapper to read with an explicit buffer.
2009-05-10http_request: use Rack::InputWrapper-compatible methods
This allows alternative I/O implementations to be easier to use with Unicorn...

2009-05-04Preserve 1.9 IO encodings in reopen_logs
Ensure we preserve both internal and external encodings when reopening logs.
2009-05-04Inline and remove the HttpRequest#reset method
These potentially leaves an open file handle around until the next request hits the process, but this makes the common case faster.
2009-05-04Fix a warning about @pid being uninitialized
2009-05-03Speed up the worker accept loop
First, reduce no-op fchmod syscalls under heavy traffic. gettimeofday(2) is a cheaper syscall than fchmod(2). Since ctime resolution is only in seconds on most filesystems (and Ruby can only get to seconds AFAIK), we can avoid fchmod(2) happening within the same second. This allows us to cheat on synthetic benchmarks where performance is measured in requests-per-second and not seconds-per-request :) Secondly, cleanup the acceptor loop and avoid nested begins/loops as much as possible. If we got ECONNABORTED, then there's no way the client variable would've been set correctly, either. If there was something there, then it is at the mercy of the garbage collector because a method can't both return a value and raise an exception.
2009-05-03Instant shutdown signals really mean instant shutdown
Use SIGQUIT if you're going to be nice and do graceful shutdowns. Sometimes people run real applications on this server and SIGINT/SIGTERM get lost/trapped when Object is rescued and that is not good. Also make sure we break out of the loop properly when the master is dead. Testcases added for both SIGINT and dead master handling.
2009-05-04Remove redundant socket closing/checking
If our response succeeds, we've already closed the socket. Otherwise, we would've raised an exception at some point hit one of the rescue clauses.
2009-05-03Ignore unhandled master signals in the workers
This makes it easier to use "killall -$SIGNAL unicorn" without having to lookup the correct PID.
