Nginx [nginx-announce] nginx-1.9.13

Changes with nginx 1.9.13 29 Mar 2016

Code (Text):

*) Change: non-idempotent requests (POST, LOCK, PATCH) are no longer
passed to the next server by default if a request has been sent to a
backend; the "non_idempotent" parameter of the "proxy_next_upstream"
directive explicitly allows retrying such requests.

*) Feature: the ngx_http_perl_module can be built dynamically.

*) Feature: UDP support in the stream module.

*) Feature: the "aio_write" directive.

*) Feature: now cache manager monitors number of elements in caches and
tries to avoid cache keys zone overflows.

*) Bugfix: "task already active" and "second aio post" alerts might
appear in logs when using the "sendfile" and "aio" directives with
subrequests.

*) Bugfix: "zero size buf in output" alerts might appear in logs if
caching was used and a client closed a connection prematurely.

*) Bugfix: connections with clients might be closed needlessly if
caching was used.
Thanks to Justin Li.

*) Bugfix: nginx might hog CPU if the "sendfile" directive was used on
Linux or Solaris and a file being sent was changed during sending.

*) Bugfix: connections might hang when using the "sendfile" and "aio
threads" directives.

*) Bugfix: in the "proxy_pass", "fastcgi_pass", "scgi_pass", and
"uwsgi_pass" directives when using variables.
Thanks to Piotr Sikora.

*) Bugfix: in the ngx_http_sub_filter_module.

*) Bugfix: if an error occurred in a cached backend connection, the
request was passed to the next server regardless of the
proxy_next_upstream directive.

*) Bugfix: "CreateFile() failed" errors when creating temporary files on
Windows.

Do you want to run YUM install checks ?  [y/n]

This will increase your upgrade duration time wise.
Check the change log centminmod.com/changelog.html
to see if any Nginx or PHP related new additions
which require checking YUM prequisites are met.
If no new additions made, you can skip the
YUM install check to speed up upgrade time.

[y/n]: n

Nginx Upgrade - Would you like to continue? [y/n] y

Install which version of Nginx? (version i.e. 1.9.12): 1.9.13

 

more complicated as clang versions >3.4+ requires GCC versions and other version dependencies that are much higher than what CentOS 6/7 provide out of the box. Source compiles and other YUM workarounds for such would probably extend a simple Centmin Mod LEMP install time by several hours if you're lucky ! Thus any benefit of clang being faster than GCC for nginx compiles, would be thrown out of the window

 

folks might need to recompile Nginx again for ngx_pagespeed security update. Questions, instructions and discussions for ngx_pagespeed update can be made at Nginx PageSpeed - ngx_pagespeed Security releases 1.9.32.14 and 1.10.33.7 | Centmin Mod Community

 

Looks like nginx roadmap has 1.9.14 due in 5 days Roadmap – nginx Due to bug fix for embedded perl nginx dynamic module #941 (Nginx 1.9.13 RPMs require perl module ExtUtils::Embed to build) – nginx ?

I actually already added that dependency to 123.09beta01 in commit at Beta Branch - add missing perl-ExtUtils-Embed yum package for nginx embedded perl module support

with nginx embedded perl module enabled in /etc/centminmod/custom_config.inc
