Contributors looking for a mission: * Just do an egrep on "TODO" or "XXX" in the source. * Review the bug database at: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/ * Review the "PatchAvailable" bugs in the bug database: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&product=Apache+httpd-2&keywords=PatchAvailable After testing, you can append a comment saying "Reviewed and tested". * Open bugs in the bug database. CURRENT RELEASE NOTES: * Forward binary compatibility is expected of Apache 2.2.x releases, such that no MMN major number changes will occur. Such changes can only be made in the trunk. * All commits to branches/2.2.x must be reflected in SVN trunk, as well, if they apply. Logical progression is commit to trunk, get feedback and votes on list or in STATUS, then merge into branches/2.2.x, as applicable. RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS: PATCHES ACCEPTED TO BACKPORT FROM TRUNK: [ start all new proposals below, under PATCHES PROPOSED. ] PATCHES PROPOSED TO BACKPORT FROM TRUNK: [ New proposals should be added at the end of the list ] * multiple files, Trivial cleanups PR: 39518 - Christophe JAILLET http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=557837 http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=557972 +1: rpluem niq: this isn't a straight backport (which is why I dropped it). +1 for core, modules/dav, modules/filters, and modules/ssl Not Applicable to modules/aaa * mod_include: Add an "if" directive syntax to test whether an URL is accessible, and if so, conditionally display content. This allows a webmaster to hide a link to a private page when the user has no access to that page. http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=571872 http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=571927 http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=572136 +1: minfrin, jim * mod_rewrite: Also set the Vary header if a rewrite condition is true and uses a HTTP header, but all remaining rewrite conditions are skipped due to the [OR] flag. Trunk version of patch: http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi?rev=574201&view=rev Backport version for 2.2.x of patch: Trunk version of patch works +1: rpluem, niq +0: jim: I'm curious that if this would result in some "regressions" for some users who either depend on the old behavior or have worked around it... rpluem answers: If r574684 is backported (see below) these users can fix it without workarounds and a clear and promised behaviour. Relying on the above is relying on a buggy iundocumented behaviour, but yes I do this sometimes by myself :-). +1: jim: iff r574684 is also backported * mod_rewrite: Add the novary flag to RewriteCond in order to prevent the appending of HTTP headers used in a rewrite condition to the Vary header of the response. Trunk version of patch: http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi?rev=574684&view=rev Backport version for 2.2.x of patch: Trunk version of patch works +1: rpluem, jim * core log.c: Work around possible solutions rejected by apr for the old implementation of apr_proc_create(), and explicitly pass the output and error channels to all log processes created. This goes all the way back to piped logs failing to run on win32. Not in or needed at trunk/, as apr 1.3.0 has the proper fix. http://people.apache.org/~wrowe/httpd-2.0-2.2-procattr-bugfix-log.c.patch +1: wrowe rpluem says: Is this really the correct thing to do on UNIX? I am not sure if all dup2 implementation notice that both fd's are the same. Otherwise they close stdout/stderr first and dup a then closed fd in stdout/stderr, leaving us without stdout/stderr in the child. * core: backport ap_send_interim_response API http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=582630 http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=582652 http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=588806 +1: niq niq says: It has been suggested the function should move to http_filters. I'm OK with that if others feel happier that way. The function declaration presumably remains in http_protocol.h, so no API change. * mod_proxy_http: Correctly forward unexpected interim (HTTP 1xx) responses PR 16518 http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=582631 http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=588806 +1: niq, rpluem -0: jim (how is this related to ap_send_interim_response above?) * server/protocol.c: Prevent 1-byte overflow on 8192 boundary in ap_vrprintf(). PR 43310 trunk: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=589461 2.2.x: Trunk version of patch works +1: jim, rpluem niq: Doesn't allocating 2^n+1 bytes risk being horribly inefficient? Would it make sense to reduce AP_IOBUFSIZE to 8091 so buf doesn't go one over a big boundary? jim: The issue is that we allocate an array of AP_IOBUFSIZE but go beyond that (note we send the end to curpos+AP_IOBUFSIZE) so it's not just reducing AP_IOBUFSIZE since then we would hit the bug at 8191 boundary instead of the 8192 one. The actual PR suggests simply removing the setting of '\0' which looks good, but there are loads of places in the related code where we use AP_IOBUFSIZE, so it seemed safer to me to simply allocate an extra byte. Note that other sections of code do this by setting the endpos to one less to "save" space for the NUL, but they don't have related sections which assume a set size; this does (AP_IOBUFSIZE). * mod_status: For long request lines we only see the front part of the requests in mod_status, which is useless if they only vary in their ending bits. Allow admin to specify whether they want to see the 1st 63 chars of the request, or the last. trunk: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=590641 2.2.x: http://people.apache.org/~jim/patches/reqtail-patch.txt +1: jim * rotatelogs: Change command-line parsing to report more types of errors.

Otherwise modules' child_init hooks appear to never be executed. Also, destroying pmain ensures that cleanups registered in modules' child_init hooks are performed (e.g., mod_log_config and mod_dbd).
