This one is the next step of previous patch. It correctly computes
the response mode and the Connection flag transformations depending
on the request mode and version, and the response version and headers.
We're now also able to add "Connection: keep-alive", and to convert
server's close during a keep-alive connection to a server-close
connection.
The connection header is complex to handle, especially in the response
path, depending on request and response HTTP versions, desired mode,
etc... Let's document it. Note that only a subset of this document is
currently implemented.
An abort during a connect would go to the SI_ST_CLO state without
the buffers shut. This was causing some sessions to never end if
they would abort before the connect request was initiated. This
bug has been introduced after 1.4-dev2.
The doc has been extended to reflect that too.
There were rare situations where it was not easy to detect that a failed
session attempt had occurred and needed some server cleanup. In particular,
client aborts sometimes lead to session leaks on the server side.
A new state "SI_ST_DIS" (disconnected) has been introduced for this. When
a session has been closed at a stream interface but the server cleanup has
not occurred, this state is entered instead of CLO. The cleanup is then
performed there and the state goes to CLO.
A new diagram has been added to show possible stream_interface state
transitions that can occur in a stream-sock. It makes debugging easier.
Since the introduction of speculative I/O, it was not always possible
to correctly detect a connection establishment. Particularly, in TCP
mode, there is no data to send and getsockopt() returns no error. The
solution consists in trying a connect() again to get its diagnostic.
Some parts of HTTP processing were incorrectly called "request" while
they are messages or transactions. The following structure members
have changed :
http_msg.hdr_state => msg_state
http_msg.sor => som
http_req.req_state => removed
http_req => http_txn
