[VOTE] Release Apache httpd 2.4.17 as GA

The pre-release test tarballs for Apache httpd 2.4.17 can be found
at the usual place:

	http://httpd.apache.org/dev/dist/

I'm calling a VOTE on releasing these as Apache httpd 2.4.17 GA.

[ ] +1: Good to go
[ ] +0: meh
[ ] -1: Danger Will Robinson. And why.

Vote will last the normal 72 hrs.

NOTE: The *-deps are only there for convenience.

Thx!

i did not test it much and honestly i am not able to make a decision 
based on 
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mpm_common.html#listencoresbucketsratio 


without the directive all is unchanged and stable

0 is not accepted which i would consider a bug given
the docs days default  "ListenCoresBucketsRatio 0 (disabled)"
AH00526: Syntax error on line 48 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd-core.conf:
ListenCoresBucketsRatio must be > 0

<IfVersion >= 2.4.17>
  ListenCoresBucketsRatio 0
</IfVersion>

i just wanted to test the new feature on a 4.2.3 kernel

"ab" don't scale well but likely not a connectivity issue runnig it on 
the same machine like httpd

Hm, with 4 cores and a ratio of 4, there is only one bucket per
listener, which is the same as the default.
Did you try the same test without the directive or with a ratio of 0?
(I rather suspect a connectivity issue with ab).

sorry for the last reply

no, it's only when "ListenCoresBucketsRatio 4" is used while otherwise a 
"ab -c 100 -n 5000000 http://small-image.gif" is no problem

You might run into problems if your server accumulates to many TIME_WAIT 
connections. Check their number in the "netstat -an" output.

ab without "-k" does in connection per request and if those are only 
used very short and the server is fast you can end up with a couple of 
10.000s of TIME_WAIT connections (independent of SO_REUSEPORT).

no problem since it's diabled by default


"ab -c 100 -n 50000 http://small-image.gif" did not make me that happy 
after a short test on a quadcore machine, after some time httpd stopped 
to respond for a tinay statical image with a few bytes

Yes you're right, I should have mentioned that directive in the CHANGES entry.
Unfortunately I'm afraid it's too late now, the 2.4.17 tag is frozen.

thanks!

Google only showed discussions, Bugzilla and so on and finding the new 
directive is hard - maybe the hint should made it into the changelog for 
GA release


will give it a try

however, 2.4.17 without touch configs looks fine

You need to configure this directive:

+1 on Fedora 21 / 22 x86_64

one question:
MPMs: Support SO_REUSEPORT to create multiple duplicated listener

does that get automatic enabled on recent Linux kernels or is there any 
configuration needed to enable it?

+1 (binding)

I ran it through my usual tests, results at
http://compliance.rocks/result.html?1e67b9ba

Might need to tweak some headers, but meh..

configure, compile, install, run - all works fine (Ubuntu 14.04).
AAAND it installs mod_lua just fine, so yay!

With regards,
Daniel.

+1

Tested on AIX 7.1/ppc64/xlc

After much head-scratching, compiling of new openssl/nghttp2, and lots
of myserious CPAN stuff, Test framework passed everything but the two
421 Misidireected testcases in http2.t already discussed elsewhere.

Michael Felt -- if you're listening, it would be nice if perzlr had
openssl 1.0.2 and nghttp2.  The latter compiled quite easily with just
-qcpluscmt.

Not a vote, I haven't gotten that far yet. It's been pointed out to me 
that on our potential first release of the new module that the docs for 
it are wrong : (  I suppose this happens when something is renamed at a 
relatively last minute.

The docs still state the module identifier as  h2_module which of course 
it's http2_module.

[X] +1: no regression, works with my existing production config with no
apparent problems

On Fedora 22, the only platform where I ran the test suite (latest version
as of yesterday afternoon), I'm getting a bunch of errors for http2 which I
don't see mentioned elsewhere.  I guess they're most likely triggered by
the Perl side of things???

The VOTE is CLOSED.

With more than the required 3 +1 (binding) votes, the VOTE
PASSES!

+1 to release and thank a bunch for RMing.
Hooray to HTTP/2.

In short: No regressions found.

Detailed report:

- Sigs and hashes OK
- contents of tarballs identical
- contents of tag and tarballs identical
   except for expected deltas
   (we could cleanup some m4 files in apr-util/xml/expat/conftools
    at the end of buildconf, no regression)

Built on

- Solaris 8+10 Sparc as 32 Bit Binaries
- SLES 10+11 (64 Bits)
- RHEL 6 (64 Bits)

For all platforms built

- with default (shared), shared and static modules
- with module sets none, few, most, all, reallyall and default
   (always mod_privileges disabled)
- using --enable-load-all-modules
- against "included" APR/APU from deps tarball,
   plus external APR/APU 1.5.2/1.5.4

- using external libraries
   - expat 2.1.0
   - pcre 8.37
   - openssl 1.0.2d
   - lua 5.2.4
   - distcache 1.5.1
   - libxml2 2.9.2
   - libnghttp2 1.3.4

- Tool chain:
     - platform gcc except for Solaris
       (gcc 4.1.2 for Solaris 8 and 4.9.2 for Solaris 10)
     - CFLAGS: -O2 -g -Wall -fno-strict-aliasing
               (and -mpcu=v9 on Solaris)

All builds succeeded
   - one compiler warning (no regression)
ssl/ssl_util_stapling.c:657: warning: 'ok' may be used uninitialized in 
this function

Tested for

- Solaris 8+10 (32), SLES 10+11 (64), RHEL 6 (64)
- MPMs prefork, worker, event
   (except event on Solaris8, unsupported)
- default, shared and static modules
- log levels info, debug and trace8
- module set reallyall (122 modules plus MPMs)
- Solaris 8 and SLES 10 still ongoing but so far OK

The following test failures were seen:

a Test 4 or 5 in t/modules/dav.t:
   Happens for 38 out of 319 runs (7 on SLES 10, 16 on SLES 11,
   13 on RHEL6, 2 on Solaris 10).
   Creation, modified and now times not in the correct order.
   This seems to be a system issue, all tests done on NFS,
   many tested on virtualized guests.
   Not a regression.

b Various tests in t/apache/expr_string.t: (6, 11, 14, 17, 20 ,23)
   Happens for 41 out of 319 runs (31 on SLES 10, 1 on SLES 11,
   9 on RHEL6).
   The failure is always on line 68, where the error_log contents
   are checked.
   Not a regression.

c Test 59 of t/modules/include.t only and always on
   Solaris.
   This is due to a bug in the test, which uses strftime()
   with a "%s" pattern that is not supported on Solaris.
   Until recently the server and the test client both returned
   verbatim "%s" and the test succeeded. After updating some
   Perl modules for the http2 tests, the perl client even
   on Solaris now supports "%s" in strftime and the test starts
   to fail. It seems we have to fix the test.

d Failure of t/modules/session.t on SlES 10.
   Warning: Use of "shift" without parentheses is ambiguous at line 39.
   Perl version is 5.8.8. The script uses a somewhat advances
   $x = shift // "NOTFOUND";
   construct, which seems to be ambiguous for old Perl (I had
   to look in the fine perl docs for the // operator).
   We could probably use a less elegant but more compatible
   construct instead.

e Failure of two tests in t/modules/http2.t.
   The tests do not run in a consistent order, so the test numbers don't
   help, but it always seems to be the "misdirected" test under SSL
   returning 404 instead of 421. Analysis by Yann indicates, that
   the test might be broken and needs some refinement to actually
   trigger a 421.

Rainer

Apart from the sslvar lookup failures reported in a separate mail
