Answering my own question, the solution is to use conn->keepalives counter
which is incremented at the end of each request. By storing the previous
count and comparing with the current count one can tell when a new request
is coming in over the keepalive connection. This technique is now documented
in the mod_perl land:
Sorry, but I think something is off here.
Why should a connection-level filter know about HTTP requests? -- justin
Because that's the only way to write a filter that processes HTTP headers only. See: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Apache-Filter-HTTPHeadersFixup/
There are quite a few people who need this functionality. And it takes a few lines perl of code to write a custom filter.
package MyFilter::in_append;
use base qw(Apache::Filter::HTTPHeadersFixup);
sub manip {
my ($class, $ra_headers) = @_;my $header = "Donkey: Monkey\n";
push @$ra_headers, $header; }
And you have a new header added. $ra_headers contains all the headers, so you can manipulate them as well.
People find it very handy with proxies when all they need is to add/remove/manipulate HTTP headers.
