Thanks for letting us know. I think the right fix is the attached patch (tested with GET/HEAD with large header and/or body, seems to work). If by any chance you can give it a try... @team: the issue with HEAD request is that ap_http_header_filter() eats the final EOS (along with the body), I don't think this is correct because downstream filters may depend on it to bail out (like rate_limit_filter() does now). So how about the attached patch both with regard to level FTYPE_CONNECTION - 1 for ratelimit filter and ap_http_header_filter() to forward the final EOS? Regards, Yann.
