unicorn is an HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve
fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take
advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels. Slow clients should
only be served by placing a reverse proxy capable of fully buffering
both the the request and response in between unicorn and slow clients.

Changes:
unicorn 5.3.0
A couple of portability fixes from Dylan Thacker-Smith and
Jeremy Evans since 5.3.0.pre1 over a week ago, but this looks
ready for a stable release, today.
When I started this over 8 years ago, I wondered if this would
just end up being an April Fools' joke. Guess not. I guess I
somehow tricked people into using a terribly marketed web server
that cannot talk directly to untrusted clients :x Anyways,
unicorn won't be able to handle slow clients 8 years from now,
either, or 80 years from now. And I vow never to learn to use
new-fangled things like epoll, kqueue, or threads :P
Anyways, this is a largish release with several new features,
and no backwards incompatibilities.
Simon Eskildsen contributed heavily using TCP_INFO under Linux
to implement the (now 5 year old) check_client_connection feature:
https://bogomips.org/unicorn/Unicorn/Configurator.html#method-i-check_client_connection
https://bogomips.org/unicorn-public/?q=s:check_client_connection&d:..20170401&x=t
This also led to FreeBSD and OpenBSD portability improvements in
one of our dependencies, raindrops:
https://bogomips.org/raindrops-public/20170323024829.GA5190@dcvr/T/#u
Jeremy Evans contributed several new features. First he
implemented after_worker_exit to aid debugging:
https://bogomips.org/unicorn/Unicorn/Configurator.html#method-i-after_worker_exit
https://bogomips.org/unicorn-public/?q=s:after_worker_exit&d:..20170401&x=t#t
And then security-related features to isolate workers. Workers
may now chroot to drop access to the master filesystem, and the
new after_worker_ready configuration hook now exists to aid with
chroot support in workers:
https://bogomips.org/unicorn/Unicorn/Configurator.html#method-i-after_worker_ready
https://bogomips.org/unicorn/Unicorn/Worker.html#method-i-user
https://bogomips.org/unicorn-public/?q=s:after_worker_ready&d:..20170401&x=t#t
https://bogomips.org/unicorn-public/?q=s:chroot&d:..20170401&x=t#t
Additionally, workers may run in a completely different VM space
(nullifying preload_app and any CoW savings) with the new
worker_exec option:
https://bogomips.org/unicorn/Unicorn/Configurator.html#method-i-worker_exec
https://bogomips.org/unicorn-public/?q=s:worker_exec&d:..20170401&x=t#t
There are also several improvements to FreeBSD and OpenBSD
support with the addition of these features.

* [PATCH] tee_input: simplify condition for IO#write

IO#write already elides the write(2) syscall for empty buffers,
so there's no need to complicate our instruction sequence
footprint for the rare case of an empty buffer.
The only cases a Rack app will have an empty buffer are:
1) `env['rack.input'].read` without args
2) `env['rack.input'].gets`
Neither of these calls are safe for server-independent Rack apps
as the client can OOM the app.
unicorn itself provides no facility for limiting maximum
rack.input size. Instead, unicorn relies on nginx to limit
input size using the client_max_body_size directive.
