Hi Roman,
I got a GitHub issue opened few days ago, that my module doesn't work following
this commit -
https://github.com/kaltura/nginx-vod-module/issues/645#issuecomment-317027706
The situation is as follows -
1. My module's content phase handler runs and performs an async read request -
a. It calls ngx_file_aio_read which returns NGX_AGAIN
b. Increments r->blocked
c. Sets r->aio to 1
(code here -
https://github.com/kaltura/nginx-vod-module/blob/master/ngx_file_reader.c#L392)
2. The NGX_AGAIN status propagates up to ngx_http_core_content_phase which
calls ngx_http_finalize_request
with this status.
3. r->buffered, c->buffered, and r->postponed are all false, so this if:
https://github.com/nginx/nginx/blob/master/src/http/ngx_http_request.c#L2456
is skipped (it used to enter before the patch since r->blocked is 1)
In addition, r == c->data, so at the end, ngx_http_finalize_request
calls ngx_http_finalize_connection
4. Since r->main->count == 1 and r->keepalive == 1, this function calls
ngx_http_set_keepalive
5. ngx_http_set_keepalive calls ngx_http_free_request which destroys the pool
even though it has aio pending.
Please let me know if you think I'm doing something wrong here (I can, for
example, increment r->main->count,
but this is not done in any of the other places that do blocked++)
Thank you!
Eran

description:
Fixed background requests with asynchronous operations.
If the main request was finalized while a background request performed an
asynchronous operation, the main request ended up in ngx_http_writer() and was
not finalized until a network event or a timeout. For example, cache
background update with aio enabled made nginx unable to process further client
requests or close the connection, keeping it open until client closes it.
Now regular finalization of the main request is not suspended because of an
asynchronous operation in another request.
If a background request was terminated while an asynchronous operation was in
progress, background request's write event handler was changed to
ngx_http_request_finalizer() and never called again.
Now, whenever a request is terminated while an asynchronous operation is in
progress, connection error flag is set to make further finalizations of any
request with this connection lead to termination.
These issues appeared in 1aeaae6e9446 (not yet released).
