The recent addition of "show env" on the CLI has revealed an interesting design bug. Chunks are supposed to support a negative length to indicate that they carry no data. chunk_printf() sets this size to -1 if the string is too large for the buffer. At a few places in the http engine we may end up with trash.len = -1. But bi_putchk(), chunk_appendf() and a few other chunks consumers don't consider this case as possible and will use such a chunk, possibly restoring an invalid string or trying to copy -1 bytes. This fix takes care of clarifying the situation in a backportable way where such sizes are used, so that a negative length indicating an error remains present until the chunk is reinitialized or overwritten. But a cleaner design adjustment needs to be done so that there's a clear contract on how to use these chunks. At first glance it doesn't seem *that* useful to support negative sizes, so probably this is what should change. This fix must be backported to 1.6 and 1.5. |
