Author: colm Date: Wed Aug 24 09:58:11 2005 New Revision: 239711 URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs?rev=239711&view=rev Log: Implement "de-listening" for graceful restarts with the prefork MPM. With this change; 1.) httpd -k graceful sends SIGUSR1 to the parent pid, which in turn sends SIGUSR1 to all of the active children, 2.) Active children each close their copy of listener fd's. This means that the listening sockets are freed for re-use. In the ordinary case, this makes no difference. However if for example admin changes "Listen 80" to "Listen 81" in the config, this rev makes port 80 immediately available (no waiting for the graceful children to die).
Looks fine. However, this is probably worth a CHANGES entry. Thanks! -- justin
