    Nginx HTTP/2 & OpenSSL 1.1.0 patch updates


    - Update inc/nginx_patch.inc for HTTP/2 full HPACK encoding optional support when using OpenSSL 1.0.2 branch not OpenSSL 1.1.x branch i.e. OPENSSL_VERSION='1.0.2l'. When Nginx 1.13.1 or newer + NGINX_PATCH='y' default + LIBRESSL_SWITCH='n' + NGINX_HPACK='y' set in persistent config file at /etc/centminmod/custom_config.inc (default is disabled), then optional HTTP/2 full HPACK encoding support for nginx is enabled as per RFC7541 specs when you run centmin.sh menu option 4 to compile Nginx. Full HTTP/2 HPACK encoding support is provided via Cloudflare patch which improves header compression ratio by 5-10% for the first response, and by 40-95% for consequential responses on the connection. Currently, not fully working with Nginx 1.13.1 so this is just prep work right now so keep NGINX_PATCH='n' set which is current default.
    - Cloudflare Patch enabled full HTTP/2 HPACK encoding versus Nginx partial HTTP/2 HPACK encoding details at HPACK: the silent killer (feature) of HTTP/2
    - Update patches/openssl/chacha20-smarter.patch switch to cloudflare's openssl__1.1.0_chacha20_poly1305.patch patch

    Updated to support both OpenSSL 1.1.x and 1.0.2 branches now

    example when Nginx 1.13.1 or newer + NGINX_PATCH='y' default

    + LIBRESSL_SWITCH='n' + NGINX_HPACK='y' set in persistent config file at /etc/centminmod/custom_config.inc

    HPACK: the silent killer (feature) of HTTP/2

    As per article to test full HPACK encoding for header compression you can use nghttp2 tool's h2load to check header compression savings i.e. 4 runs from cloudflare blog
    Code (Text):
    url=https://blog.cloudflare.com
    for i in $(seq 1 4); do echo "h2load run $i"; h2load $url -n $i | tail -6 | head -1; done                     
    h2load run 1
    traffic: 27.83KB (28502) total, 541B (541) headers (space savings 27.96%), 27.21KB (27858) data
    h2load run 2
    traffic: 55.12KB (56443) total, 570B (570) headers (space savings 62.05%), 54.41KB (55716) data
    h2load run 3
    traffic: 82.41KB (84384) total, 599B (599) headers (space savings 73.41%), 81.62KB (83574) data
    h2load run 4
    traffic: 109.69KB (112327) total, 630B (630) headers (space savings 79.03%), 108.82KB (111432) data
    


    Tested Centmin Mod 123.09beta01 updated with Nginx 1.13.1 + NGINX_HPACK='y' with OpenSSL 1.0.2l and 1.1.0f and not seeing such HPACK HTTP/2 header savings on subsequent h2load runs though ?

    Test again test site i.e. Nginx HTTP/2 HTTPS based domain.com defined by variable url
    Code (Text):
    url=https://domain.com
    

    Code (Text):
    curl -I $url

    h2load reported header space savings due to full HPACK encoding patch enabled support doesn't change on subsequent h2load runs #2-4 ?

    without cloudflare HTTP/2 HPACK Full encoding patch strange get higher compression levels/header space savings ?

    submitted an issue for cloudflare sslconfig github repo at Nginx 1.13.1 + HTTP/2 Full HPACK encoding patch verification? · Issue #72 · cloudflare/sslconfig · GitHub

    edit: fixed add missing --with-http_v2_hpack_enc configure option and confirmed if i remove -O2 or -O3 during Nginx compile when HPACK patch detected in centmin.sh menu option 4 runs, then yes Nginx 1.13.1 compiles with full HPACK encoding patch !

    confirm the improved header savings in h2load tests :)

    Nginx 1.27.x
    MariaDB 10.x/11.4+
    more tests with Cloudflare HTTP/2 HPACK full encoding patch with Centmin Mod 123.09beta01's Nginx 1.13.1 with persistent config file /etc/centminmod/custom_config.inc set with
    Code (Text):
    NGINX_HPACK='y'
    LIBRESSL_SWITCH='n'
    CLANG='n'
    NGINX_DEVTOOLSETGCC='y'
    DEVTOOLSETSIX='y'
    

    which will enable Cloudflare HTTP/2 HPACK patch, switch from LibreSSL to OpenSSL crypto library, use GCC instead of Clang compiler and set Nginx GCC version to devtoolset-4's provided GCC 6.2.1
    h2load header check test over 1-8 runs with up to 44% HTTP/2 header compression savings on subsequent HTTP/2 requests :D

    Hmmwha HPACK: the silent killer (feature) of HTTP/2 haha.
    Looking at Github it took hours to implement this in Centminmod, with only minimal profit.

    Even if you get 80% benefit, header optimization is still a mini mini mini piece section of optimization.
    They better released their HTTP/2 server push patch or their OpenSSL with BoringSSL enhancements.

    To really take great steps and no mice steps like now.
    As Cloudflare already released this defacto patch in 2015.


    (Nothing to do with this experimental module)

    but looks like Cloudflare's implementation has more savings, centmin.sh domain is centminmod.com mirror using Cloudflare free plan = HPACK'd up to 84% savings ! And look at data size, Cloudflare probaby using higher levels of compression

    Cloudflare released this patch already in 2015.
    [PATCH] HTTP/2: HPACK Huffman encoding
    They are now making everyone happy with an old gift.

    testing with OpenSSL 1.1.1-dev TLS v1.3 draft-18 branch + HPACK patch

    interesting header savings are much better at up to 88% savings ! seems the HPACK patch was updated with a few fixes :)

    For those folks wondering what the benefit of this is might want to read HPACK: HTTP/2’s Hidden Gem - GlobalDots Blog as well
    So if my calculations are correct on 1 million page requests with 100 assets per page and 400 bytes header size means:

    1000000 x 100 x 400 bytes = 38,146 MegaBytes or 37.25 Gigabytes of data normally. So with up to 90% HPACK encoded header savings with HPACK full encoding, it means you save around 33.525 Gigabytes per 1 million page requests and on average lower the number of roundtrips for transferring the data per page load.

    Jup the current Nginx git and 1.13.1 version as written by Cloudflare's
    vkrasnov. Using the Nginx 1.13.1 patch here on Nginx 1.12.0 with a bunch of changes as it conflicts with other patches otherwise.

    Why?
    Looking at the code, there is nothing really changed at the HTTP/2 part between 1.12 and 1.13.1.
