Log message:
Disable inotify in embedded libev configure. Fixes build on recent SunOS
platforms.
   2015-04-02 17:40:14 by Filip Hajny | Files touched by this commit (15) | Package updated
Log message:
Update Passenger to 5.0.6.

Remove libev linking, as building with external libev is no longer possible.

Upstream changelog follows:

Release 5.0.6
-------------
* The turbocache no longer caches responses for which the Cache-Control header
  contains "no-cache". Please note that "no-cache" does not \ 
mean "do not
  cache this response". Instead, it means "any caching servers may \ 
only serve
  the cached response after validating it". Since the turbocache does not
  support validation, we've chosen to skip caching instead.
* Fixes a number of memory leaks. Memory was leaked upon processing a request
  with multiple headers, upon processing a response with multiple headers,
  and upon processing a response with Set-Cookie headers. Every time such
  a request or response was processed, 512 bytes of memory was leaked due
  to improperly dereferencing relevant memory buffers. Closes GH-1455.
* Fixes various bugs related to Union Station data collection.
* Fixes a Union Station-related file descriptor leak. Closes GH-1439.
* Fixes some bugs w.r.t. use of uninitialized memory.
* More informative error message if a support binary is not found, including
  a resolution hint. Closes GH-1395.
* [Apache] `SetEnv` variables are now passed as Rack/CGI/request variables.
  This was also the case in Passenger 4, but not in Passenger 5.0.0-5.0.5.
  We've restored the old behavior because the behavior in 5.0.0-5.0.5 breaks
  certain Apache modules such as Shibboleth. Closes GH-1446.
* [Standalone] PID and log files now correctly created if user specifies
  relative path.

Release 5.0.5
-------------
* Fixes various crashes due to use of uninitialized memory. One such crash
 is documented in GH-1431.
* Fixes a connection stall in the Apache module. Closes GH-1425.
* Fixes a potential read-past-buffer bug in string-to-integer conversion
  routines. Thanks to dcb314 for spotting this. Closes GH-1441.
* Fixes a compilation problem on Solaris. This problem was caused by the fact
  that `tm_gmtoff` is not supported on that platform. Closes GH-1435.
* There is now an API endpoint for force disconnecting a client:
  `passenger-config admin-command DELETE /server/<client name>.json`.
  Closes GH-1246.
* Fixes some file descriptor leaks. These leaks were caused by the fact that
  keep-alive connections with application processes were not being closed
  properly. Closes GH-1439.
* In order to more easily debug future file descriptor leaks, we've introduced
  the `PassengerFileDescriptorLogFile` (Apache) and
  `passenger_file_descriptor_log_file` (Nginx) config options. This allows
  Passenger to log all file descriptor open/close activity to a specific
  log file.
* The `PassengerDebugLogFile` (Apache) and `passenger_debug_log_file` (Nginx)
  configuration options have been renamed to `PassengerLogFile` and
  `passenger_log_file`, respectively. The old name is support supported for
  backward compatibility reasons.
* [Enterprise] Fixes a bug in Flying Passenger's `--instance-registry-dir`
  command line parameter. This command line parameter didn't do anything.
* [Enterprise] The Flying Passenger daemon no longer supports the
  `--max-preloader-idle-time` config option. This is because the config option
  never worked. The correct way to set the max preloader idle time is through
  the Nginx config option, but this was wrongly documented, so
  the documentation has been fixed.

Release 5.0.4
-------------
* Fixes a compilation problem introduced in 5.0.3.

Release 5.0.3
-------------
* [Standalone] When using the builtin engine, `passenger start` may crash
  during startup due to an initialization race condition. This has been fixed.
* [Enterprise] Fixes a bug in passenger-irb. Running passenger-irb without
  a PID parameter worked, but running it with a PID parameter didn't.
* Fixes an integer overflow that resulted in a file descriptor leak and
  stalled client connections. Closes GH-1412.
* Truncates Passenger source code paths in logs (to 3 chars) to reduce
  redundant info. Closes GH-1383.
* Fixes invalid JSON output for non-finite double values (e.g. from the HTTP
  JSON API). Closes GH-1408.
* All hooks now set the `PASSENGER_HOOK_NAME` environment variable. This
  variable is set to the name of the hook that is being called.
* The Ruby handler no longer tries to call #force_encoding on response body
  strings, which fixes an incompatibility with apps/libraries that return
  frozen body strings. Closes GH-1414.
* If the Ruby handler crashes while processing a Rack response body, it will
  now no longer stall the connection.
* Fixes env.SERVER_PORT containing 80 instead of 443 when using https on
  default port. Closes GH-1421.
* We now handle errors in the `poll()` system call better. This might fix
  some crashes during shutdown which manifest on FreeBSD.

Release 5.0.2
-------------
* Fixes a connection freeze that could occur when processing large responses.
  This would manifest itself under the error message "This website is under
  heavy load" or "Request queue is full, returning an error". \ 
Closes GH-1404.
* Debian and Ubuntu packages have been reintroduced.
* When `passenger-config restart-app` is run interactively, if Passenger is
  not serving any applications, then the command now prints an error message
  instead of showing a menu with only a "Cancel" option.
* Fixes a compilation problem on FreeBSD 10 (contributed by: clemensg).
  Closes GH-1401.
* [Standalone] Fixes a crash that would occur if you use the `--ctl`
  parameter.
* [Enterprise] The `--max-request-time` option has been added to Passenger
  Standalone.
* [Enterprise] The `max_request_time_reached` hook has been introduced. This
  hook allows you to run diagnostics on a process that that took too long
  to respond to a request.

Release 5.0.1
-------------
* The `passenger-config restart-app` command is now more user friendly.
  When run in a terminal, it will show an interactive menu, allowing you
  to select the app to restart. Closes GH-1387.
* Fixed a crash bug in the handling of sticky session cookies.
* Log failed program in error message, not its command line (contributed
  by: paisleyrob). Closes GH-1397.
* [Nginx] Fixes cases in which Passenger overrides the Nginx handler
  function even when it shouldn't, for example when Passenger is disabled.
  Closes GH-1393.
* [Enterprise] The `sticky_sessions` and `envvars` options in
  Passengerfile.json is now also supported in mass deployment mode.

Release 5.0.0 release candidate 2
---------------------------------
* Fixes an installation problem with the Ruby gem due to incorrect Makefile
  generation. Closes GH-1382.
* More helpful message when request queue is full. Closes GH-1375.

Release 5.0.0 release candidate 1
---------------------------------
* Fixed Date headers not being formatted in the GMT timezone. Closes GH-1367.
* Fixed Passengerfile.json/passenger-standalone.json not being properly
  loaded in Passenger Standalone.
* Fixed support for sticky sessions.
* Fixed an infinite loop if the ApplicationPool garbage collector fails due
  to an exception. Closes GH-1360.
* Fixed Passenger Standalone exiting prematurely when the HelperAgent crashes.
  Exiting prematurely is not supposed to happen because the watchdog will
  restart the HelperAgent. Closes GH-1339.
* Fixed a crash that occurs when using a non-standard startup file value.
  Closes GH-1378.
* When dumping system metrics during error page generation, the
  `passenger-config` command is now invoked under the same Ruby interpreter
  as the app, instead of the one in PATH. Closes GH-1381.
* When a Ruby process crashes due to an uncaught exception, this fact is now
  properly logged.
* Specifying 0 for the `max_pool_size` config option no longer results
  in a crash. Closes GH-1334.
* The timeouts when downloading Passenger Standalone binaries and source
  files are now customizable. Closes GH-1295.
* The `envvars` option is now supported in Passengerfile.json, for passing
  environment variables to the application. Closes GH-1377.
* Introduced `hook_queue_full_error` for request queue overflows.
* [Ruby] Fixed handling of "transfer-encoding chunked" response bodies
  which contain zero-sized chunks.
* [Nginx] It is no longer necessary to re-specify `passenger_enabled`
  in `location` contexts. Closes GH-1338.
* [Enterprise] Fixed a bug in mass deployment reloading.
* [Enterprise] Fixed a bug in mass deployment daemonization.
* [Enterprise] The mass deployment mode now supports the `app_type`
  and `startup_file` configuration options in
  Passengerfile.json/passenger-standalone.json. Closes GH-1366.

Release 5.0.0 beta 3
--------------------
* The turbocache has received major updates and fixes based on excellent
  feedback Chris Heald and the community. First, several bugs w.r.t.
  the handling of caching headers have been fixed. Second, the turbocache
  has become slightly more conservative for security reasons. In previous
  versions, default cacheable responses (as defined by RFC 7234) were cached
  unless caching headers tell us not to. Now, default cacheable responses
  are only cached if caching headers explicitly tell us to. This change was
  introduced because there are many applications that set incorrect caching
  headers on private responses. This new behavior is currently not
  configurable, but there are plans to make it configurable in 5.0.0
  release candidate 1.
* Introduced a new configuration option,
  `passenger_response_buffer_high_watermark` (Nginx) and
  `PassengerResponseBufferHighWatermark` (Apache), for configuring
  the behavior of the response buffering system. Closes GH-1300.
* Fixed more cookie handling issues. Closes GH-1310.
* Fixed various WebSocket issues. Closes GH-1306.
* Fixed some crashes caused by race conditions. Closes GH-1326.
* Fixed issues with handling POST data. Closes GH-1331.
* Fixed some issues on Heroku. Closes GH-1329.
* Fixed some integer overflows. Fix contributed by Go Maeda. Closes GH-1357.
* Fixed the `passenger-status --show=union_station` command. Closes GH-1336.
* Nginx versions earlier than 1.6 are no longer supported.
* Improved state introspection.

Release 5.0.0 beta 2
--------------------
* Fixed handling of multiple Set-Cookie headers. Closes GH-1296.
* `passenger-config system-metrics` now works properly if the agent is
  installed in ~/.passenger. Closes GH-1304.
* Documentation enhancements by Igor Vuk. Closes GH-1318.
* Fixed some crasher bugs.
* [Standalone] User switching is now correctly disabled.
* [Standalone] Fixed the `--thread-count` parameter.
* [Apache] IPs set by mod_remoteip are now respected. Closes GH-1284.
* [Apache] Fixed support for gzipped chunked responses. Closes GH-1309.

Release 5.0.0 beta 1
--------------------
Version 5.0.0 beta 1 contains major changes. It's mostly compatible with
version 4, but there are a few minor breakages, which are described below.
Major changes and notable breakages are:

* Performance has been much improved. This is thanks to months of
  optimization work. You can learn more at www.rubyraptor.org.
* Support for Rails 1.2 - 2.2 has been removed, for performance reasons.
  Rails 2.3 is still supported.
* Phusion Passenger now supports integrated HTTP caching, which we call
  turbocaching. If your app sets the right HTTP headers then Phusion Passenger
  can tremendously accelerate your app. It is enabled by default, but you
  can disable it with `--disable-turbocaching` (Standalone),
  `PassengerTurbocaching off` (Apache), or 'passenger_turbocaching off' (Nginx).
* Touching restart.txt will no longer restart your app immediately. This is
  because, for performance reasons, the stat throttle rate now defaults to 10.
  You can still get back the old behavior by setting
  `PassengerStatThrottleRate 0` (Apache) or `passenger_stat_throttle_rate 0`
  (Nginx), but this is not encouraged. Instead, we encourage you to use
  the `passenger-config restart-app` tool to initiate restarts, which has
  immediate effect.
* Websockets are now properly disconnected on application restarts.
* The Phusion Passneger log levels have been completely revamped. If you
  were setting a log level before (e.g. through `passenger_log_level`),
  please read the latest documentation to learn about the new log levels.
* If you use out-of-band garbage collection, beware that the
  `X-Passenger-Request-OOB-Work` header has now been renamed
  to `!~Request-OOB-Work`.
* When using Rack's full socket hijacking, you must now output an HTTP
  status line.
* [Nginx] The `passenger_set_cgi_param` option has been removed and replaced
  by `passenger_set_header` and `passenger_env_var`.
* [Nginx] `passenger_show_version_in_header` is now only valid in
  the `http` context.
* [Apache] The `PassengerStatThrottleRate` option is now global.

Minor changes:
* The minimum required Nginx version is now 1.6.0.
* The instance directory is now touched every hour instead of every 6 hours.
  This should hopefully prevent more problems with /tmp cleaner daemons.
* Applications are not grouped not only on the application root path, but
  also on the environment. For example, this allows you to run the same app
  in both production and staging mode, with only a single directory, without
  further configuration. Closes GH-664.
* The `passenger_temp_dir` option (Nginx) and the `PassengerTempDir` option
  (Apache) have been replaced by two config options. On Nginx they are
  `passenger_instance_registry_dir` and `passenger_data_buffer_dir`. On
  Apache they are `PassengerInstanceRegistryDir` and `PassengerDataBufferDir`.
  On Apache, `PassengerUploadBufferDir` has been replaced by \ 
`PassengerDataBufferDir`.
* Command line tools no longer respect the `PASSENGER_TEMP_DIR` environment
  variable. Use `PASSENGER_INSTANCE_REGISTRY_DIR` instead.
* `passenger-status --show=requests` has been deprecated in favor
  of `passenger-status --show=connections`.
* Using the SIGUSR1 signal to restart a Ruby app without dropping connections,
  is no longer supported. Instead, use `passenger-config detach-process`.
* Introduced the `passenger-config reopen-logs` command, which instructs
  all Phusion Passenger agent processes to reopen their log files. You
  should call this after having rotated the web server logs.
* [Standalone] The Phusion Passenger Standalone config template has changed.
  Users are encouraged to update it.
* [Standalone] `passenger-standalone.json` has been renamed to
  `Passengerfile.json`.
* [Standalone] `passenger-standalone.json`/`Passengerfile.json` no longer
  overrides command line options. Instead, command line options now have the \ 
highest priority.

Release 4.0.60
--------------
* Fixed the password protection of internal Phusion Passenger processes.

Release 4.0.59
--------------
* [Enterprise] Fixed support for free-style Node.js apps.

Release 4.0.58
--------------
* [Enterprise] Fixed a bug in the Debian packages which caused Flying
  Passenger to break when used with non-system Rubies.
* The Debian packages no longer require Ruby 1.9. Closes GH-1353.

Release 4.0.57
--------------
* Fixed a native extension compatibility problem with Ruby 2.2. Closes
  [ruby-core:67152](https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10656).

Release 4.0.56
--------------
* Fixed a file descriptor leak that manifests when an error page is shown.
  Contributed by Paul Bonaud, closes GH-1325.
* Improved Node.js request load balancing. Closes GH-1322. Thanks to Charles
  Vallières for the analysis.

   2014-10-29 13:59:17 by Filip Hajny | Files touched by this commit (9)
Log message:
Update Passenger to 4.0.53.
Remove vulnerability refences from TODO (none of which applied).

Changelog from 4.0.42 follows...

Release 4.0.53
--------------
 * Upgraded the preferred Nginx version to 1.6.2.
 * Improved RVM gemset autodetection.
 * Fixed some Ruby 2.2 compatibility issues.

Release 4.0.52
--------------
 * Fixed a null termination bug when autodetecting application types.
 * Node.js apps can now also trigger the inverse port binding mechanism by
   passing `'/passenger'` as argument. This was introduced in order to be able
   to support the Hapi.js framework.
 * It is now possible to abort Node.js WebSocket connections upon application
   restart.
 * Passenger Standalone no longer automatically resolves symlinks in its paths.
 * `passenger-config system-metrics` no longer crashes when the system clock
   is set to a time in the past.
 * `passenger-status`, `passenger-memory-stats`,
   `passenger-install-apache2-module` and `passenger-install-nginx-module`
    no longer output ANSI color codes by default when STDOUT is not a TTY.
 * `passenger-install-nginx-module --auto` is now all that's necessary
    to make it fully non-interactive. It is no longer necessary to provide all
    the answers through command line parameters.
 * Minor contribution by Alessandro Lenzen.

Release 4.0.50
--------------
 * Fixed a potential heap corruption bug.
 * Added Union Station support for Rails 4.1.

Release 4.0.49
--------------
 * Upgraded the preferred Nginx version to 1.6.1.
 * Fixed a crash that may be triggered by the `passenger_max_requests`
   feature.
 * Introduced the `spawn_failed` hook, which is called when an application
   process fails to spawn. You could use this hook to setup an error
   notification system.
 * Fonts, RSS and XML are now gzip-compressed by default in Phusion Passenger
   Standalone. Thanks to Jacob Elder.
 * Fixed some user and group information lookup issues.
 * Fixed some request handling crashes.
 * Fixed some compilation problems on Gentoo.
 * Fixed some compilation problems on Solaris

Release 4.0.48
--------------
 * Fixed a race condition while determining what user an application should
   be executed as. This bug could lead to applications being run as the wrong
   user.
 * [Standalone] Improved autodetection of Rails asset pipeline files. This
   prevents Standalone from incorrectly setting caching headers on non-asset
   pipeline files.
 * Fixed compilation problems on CentOS 5.
 * Fixed compilation problems on OpenBSD.
 * Fixed compatibility with Ruby 1.8.5.

Release 4.0.47
--------------
 * [Enterprise] Fixed a bug in Flying Passenger's `--max-preloader-idle-time`
   option.

Release 4.0.46
--------------
 * Further improved Node.js and Socket.io compatibility.
 * Sticky session cookies have been made more reliable.
 * Fixed WebSocket upgrade issues on Firefox.
 * The Python application loader now inserts the application root
   into `sys.path`.
   The fact that this was not done previously caused a lot of confusion amongst
   Python users, who wondered why their `passenger_wsgi.py` could not import any
   modules from the same directory.
 * Fixed a compatibility problem with Django, which could cause Django apps to
   freeze indefinitely.
 * Logging of application spawning errors has been much improved. Full details
   about the error, such as environment variables, are saved to a private
   log file.
   In the past, these details were only viewable in the browser. This change
   also fixes a bug on Phusion Passenger Enterprise, where enabling Deployment
   Error Resistance causes error messages to get lost.
 * Fixed a regression in Node.js support. When a Node.js app is deployed on
   a HTTPS host, the `X-Forwarded-Proto` header wasn't set in 4.0.45.
 * Passenger Standalone no longer, by default, loads shell startup files
   before loading the application. This is because Passenger Standalone is
   often invoked from the shell anyway. Indeed, loading shell startup files
   again can interfere with any environment variables already set in the
   invoking shell. You can still tell Passenger Standalone to load shell
   startup files by passing `--load-shell-envvars`. Passenger for Apache and
   Passenger for Nginx still load shell startup files by default.
 * Passenger Standalone now works properly when the HOME environment variable
   isn't set.
 * Passenger Standalone's `package-runtime` command has been removed. It has
   been broken for a while and has nowadays been obsolete by our automatic
   binary generation system.
 * The `passenger_startup_file` option now also works on Python apps.
 * If you are a Union Station customer, then Phusion Passenger will now also
   log application spawning errors to Union Station. This data isn't shown in
   the Union Station interface yet, but it will be implemented in the future.
 * Fixed compilation problems on OmniOS and OpenIndiana.
 * Fixed compilation problems when Nginx is configured with OpenResty.
   Thanks to Yichun Zhang.
 * Fixed Nginx HTTP POST failures on ARM platforms. Thanks to nocelic for
  the fix.
 * Documentation contributions by Tim Bishop and Tugdual de Kerviler.
 * Minor Nginx bug fix by Feng Gu.

Release 4.0.45
--------------
 * Major improvements in Node.js and Meteor compatibility. Older Phusion
   Passenger versions implemented Node.js support by emulating Node.js' HTTP
   library. This approach was found to be unsustainable, so we've abandoned
   that approach and replaced it with a much simpler approach that does not
   involve emulating the HTTP library.
 * Introduced support for sticky sessions. Sticky sessions are useful -- or
   even required -- for apps that store state inside process memory. Prominent
   examples include SockJS, Socket.io, faye-websocket and Meteor. Sticky
   sessions are required to make the aforementioned examples work in
   multi-process scenarios. By introducing sticky sessions support, we've much
   improved WebSocket support and support for the aforementioned libraries
   and frameworks.
 * Due to user demand, GET requests with request bodies are once again
   supported. Support for these kinds of requests was removed in 4.0.42
   in an attempt to increase the strictness and robustness of our request
   handling code. It has been determined that GET requests with request bodies
   can be adequately supported without degrading robustness in Phusion
   Passenger. However, GET requests with both request bodies and WebSocket
   upgrade headers are unsupported.
 * Fixed some issues with RVM mixed mode support, issue #1121.
 * Fixed Passenger Standalone complaining about not finding PassengerHelperAgent
   during startup.
 * Fixed various minor issues such as #1190 and #1197.
 * The download timeout for passenger-install-nginx-module has been increased.

Release 4.0.44
--------------
 * The issue tracker has now been moved from Google Code to Github.
   Before version 4.0.44 (May 29 2014, commit 3dd0964c9f4), all
   issue numbers referred to Google Code. From now on, all issue
   numbers will refer to Github Issues.
 * Fixed compilation problems on OS X Lion and OS X Mountain Lion.
 * On Ruby, fixed `nil` being frozen on accident in some cases.

Release 4.0.43
--------------
 * Introduced a new command `passenger-config list-instances`, which prints all
   running Phusion Passenger instances.
 * Introduced a new command `passenger-config system-metrics, which displays
   metrics about the system such as the total CPU and memory usage.
 * Fixed some compilation problems caused by the compiler capability
   autodetector.
 * System metrics such as total CPU usage and memory usage, are now sent to
   [Union Station](https://www.unionstationapp.com) in preparation for future
   features.

Release 4.0.42
--------------

 * [Nginx] Upgraded the preferred Nginx version to 1.6.0.
 * [Nginx] Fixed compatibility with Nginx 1.7.0.
 * There are now APT packages for Ubuntu 14.04. At the same time, packages
   for Ubuntu 13.10 have been abandoned.
 * Introduced a new command, `passenger-config build-native-support`, for
   ensuring that the native_support library for the current Ruby interpreter
   is built. This is useful in system provisioning scripts.
 * For security reasons, friendly error pages (those black/purple pages that shows
   the error message, backtrace and environment variable dump when an application
   fails to start) are now disabled by default when the application environment is
   set to 'staging' or 'production'. Fixes issue #1063.
 * Fixed some compilation warnings on Ubuntu 14.04.
 * Fixed some compatibility problems with Rake 10.2.0 and later.
   See [Rake issue 274](https://github.com/jimweirich/rake/issues/274).
 * Improved error handling in [Union Station](https://www.unionstationapp.com)
   support.
 * Data is now sent to Union Station on a more frequent basis, in order to make new
   data show up more quickly.
 * Information about the code revision is now sent to Union Station, which will be
   used in the upcoming deployment tracking feature in Union Station 2.
