2009-05-22unicorn 0.7.1 v0.7.1
2009-05-22GNUmakefile: glob all files in bin/*
Easier to maintain and add new executables this way
2009-05-22Disable formatting for command-line switches
Copy and pasting from the RDoc web page and passing "\342\200\224config-file" to the command-line does not work.
2009-05-22test_response: correct OFS test
Must have multiple headers to test this effectively
2009-05-22http_response: allow string status codes
Rack::Lint says they just have to work when to_i is called on the status, so that's what we'll do.
2009-05-22Enforce minimum timeout at 3 seconds
2 seconds is still prone to race conditions under high load. We're intentionally less accurate than we could be in order to reduce syscall and method dispatch overhead.
2009-05-22configurator: fix rdoc formatting
2009-05-22Preserve 1.9 IO encodings in reopen_logs
Ensure we preserve both internal and external encodings when reopening logs.
2009-05-22Fix a warning about @pid being uninitialized
2009-05-22TUNING: add a note about somaxconn with UNIX sockets
2009-05-22Ignore unhandled master signals in the workers
This makes it easier to use "killall -$SIGNAL unicorn" without having to lookup the correct PID.
2009-05-22Safer timeout handling and test case
Timeouts of less than 2 seconds are unsafe due to the lack of subsecond resolution in most POSIX filesystems. This is the trade-off for using a low-complexity solution for timeouts. Since this type of timeout is a last resort; 2 seconds is not entirely unreasonable IMNSHO. Additionally, timing out too aggressively can put us in a fork loop and slow down the system. Of course, the default is 60 seconds and most people do not bother to change it.
2009-05-22app/old_rails: correctly log errors in output
"out" was an invalid variable in that context...
2009-05-22Add TUNING document
Most of this should be applicable to Mongrel and other web servers, too.
2009-05-22app/exec_cgi: GC prevention
Don't allow newly created IO objects to get GC'ed and subsequently close(2)-ed. We're not reopening the {$std,STD}{in,out,err} variables since those can't be trusted to have fileno 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
2009-05-22Add example init script
This was done in Bourne shell because it's easier for UNIX sysadmins who don't know Ruby to understand and modify. Additionally, it can be used for nginx or anything else that shares compatible signal handling.
2009-05-22test_upload: still uncomfortable with 1.9 IO encoding...
It seems most applications use buffered IO#read instead of IO#sysread. So make sure our encoding is set correctly for buffered IO#read applications, too.
2009-05-22test_request: enable with Ruby 1.9 now Rack 1.0.0 is out
2009-04-25unicorn 0.7.0 v0.7.0
2009-04-25Rack 1.0.0 compatibility
Keep in mind that it's plenty possible to use Unicorn as a library without using Rack itself. Most of the unit tests do not depend on Rack, for example.
2009-04-25Fix log rotation being delayed in workers when idle
We were closing a no-longer-existent I/O object to break out of IO.select. This was broken in 0.6.0 but did not affect the worker when it was busy.
2009-04-24configurator: "listen" directive more nginx-like
The following specifications to bind port 8080 on all interfaces are now accepted in the configuration file: listen "8080" # (with quotes) listen 8080 # (without quotes)
2009-04-24doc: formatting changes for SIGNALS doc
2009-04-24unicorn 0.6.0 v0.6.0
2009-04-24cleanup: avoid duped self-pipe init/replacement logic
We do this in both the worker and master processes, so avoid repeating ourselves.
2009-04-24SIGTT{IN,OU} {in,de}crements worker_processes
This allows dynamic tuning of the worker_processes count without having to restart existing ones. This also allows worker_processes to be set to a low initial amount in the config file for low-traffic deployments/upgrades and then scaled up as the old processes are killed off. Remove the proposed reexec_worker_processes from TODO since this is far more flexible and powerful. This will allow not-yet-existent third-party monitoring tools to dynamically change and scale worker processes according to site load without increasing the complexity of Unicorn itself.
2009-04-24Allow std{err,out}_path to be changed via HUP
Seems like a good idea to be able to relocate log files on a config reload.
2009-04-24minor cleanups and save a few variables
Saying to the world that I may have OCD...
2009-04-24Avoid getppid() if serving heavy traffic
As long as our speculative accept()s are succeeding, then avoid checking for master process death and keep processing requests. This allows us to save some syscalls under extremely heavy traffic spikes.
2009-04-24Fixup reference to a dead variable
Oops, this was broken in another yak-shaving commit: 9206bb5e54a0837e394e8b1c1a96e27ebaf44e77
2009-04-23Describe the global constants we use.
Avoid scaring the thread-safety-first crowd (as much :)
2009-04-23make SELF_PIPE is a global constant
Since it has to work inside signal handlers, there's no point in making it a per-object instance variable given the price of an instance variable in MRI...
2009-04-23http_response: minor performance gains
Avoid creating garbage every time we lookup the status code along with the message. Also, we can use global const arrays for a little extra performance because we only write one-at-a time Looking at MRI 1.8, Array#join with an empty string argument is slightly better because it skips an append for every iteration.
2009-04-23http_response: just barely faster
2009-04-23test_socket_helper: disable GC for this test
Otherwise the GC will unlink sockets. A better solution (purgatory?) may be needed...
2009-04-23Make LISTENERS and WORKERS global constants, too
Instance variables are expensive and we'd be encouraging something like a thread-safe mentality for using ivars when dealing with things that are global to the entire process.
2009-04-23IO_PURGATORY should be a global constant
Since file descriptors are only private to a process, do not treat them as Object-specific.
2009-04-23http_request: micro optimizations
This leads to a ~10% improvement in test/benchmark/request.rb Some of these changes will need to be reworked for multi-threaded servers (Mongrel); but Unicorn will always be single-threaded.
2009-04-23Merge commit 'v0.5.4'
* commit 'v0.5.4': unicorn 0.5.4 Fix data corruption with small uploads via browsers Conflicts: lib/unicorn/http_request.rb
2009-04-23test_exec: cleanup stale socket on exit
2009-04-23unicorn_rails: avoid nesting lambdas
I've experienced occasional problems with this so it's probably best to stay on the safe side.
2009-04-23GNUmakefile: mark test_upload as a slow test
2009-04-23Get rid of UNICORN_TMP_BASE constant
It was just a waste of space and would've caused line wrapping. This reinstates the "unicorn" prefix when we create tempfiles, too.
2009-04-23unicorn 0.5.4 v0.5.4
2009-04-23Fix data corruption with small uploads via browsers
StringIO.new(partial_body) does not update the offset for new writes. So instead create the StringIO object and then syswrite to it and try to follow the same code path used by large uploads which use Tempfiles.

2009-04-21Cleanup GNUmakefile and fix dependencies
Installation dependencies weren't being resolved correctly (since "install-test") wasn't .PHONY. Removed the "install-test" target entirely since it should never be invoked by hand. On the other hand, "ragel" can be useful to invoke by hand so add a target for that.
2009-04-21Cleanup some unnecessary requires
2009-04-21test: empty port test for absolute URIs
2009-04-21http11: support underscores in URI hostnames
They aren't common, but apparently there exist URLs with them, so we'll support them.
