new httpd build running on daedalus

[Greg Ames <gr...@apache.org>]

...since Friday, 28-Jun-2002 10:43:24 PDT.  This build is basically 2.0.39 with
a patch to apr_sendfile to deal with a change to the FreeBSD sendfile() API.  We
had 88 sendfile_it_all asserts pop today, so I decided to put the new build into
production even though there was a fair amount of traffic.  My apologies if I
interrupted your download.

Please speak up if you notice anything weird about the new httpd.  Any new
coredumps need to be taken seriously.

+1 (untested).

For anybody interested in the kernel patch that killed us on this one, the
full URL is:

This patch tries to maintain binary compatibility on FreeBSD 4.4 and above by
doing a runtime kernel version test.  It works on daedalus.  Jeff said he'd try
it on a 3.x FreeBSD box, where the runtime test I'm using isn't available.

Ouch.

Good-bye binary compatibility on FreeBSD.  -- justin

before the kernel we picked up Wednesday night: bytes to send includes headers
after the kernel we picked up Wednesday night: bytes to send doesn't
                                        include headers

What is the change in the FreeBSD API?

BTW, is it possible to put out HEAD on daedalus?  There are some
fixes that need to go out and get tested.  -- justin
