2006/04/15 : 1.2.12
Very few changes preparing for more important changes to support per-server
session limitations and queueing :
- ignore leading empty lines in HTTP requests as suggested by RFC2616.
- added the 'weight' parameter to the servers, limited to 1..256. It applies
to roundrobin and source hash.
- the optional '-s' option could clobber '-st' and '-sf' if compiled in.
2006/03/30 : 1.2.11.1
- under some conditions, it might have been possible that when the
last dead server became available, it would not have been used
till another one would have changed state. Could not be reproduced
at all, however seems possible from the code.
2006/03/25 : 1.2.11
- added the '-db' command-line option to disable backgrounding.
- added the -sf/-st command-line arguments which are used to specify
a list of pids to send a FINISH or TERMINATE signal upon startup.
They will also be asked to release their port if a bind fails.
- reworked the startup mechanism to allow the sending of a signal to a list
of old pids if a socket cannot be bound, with a retry for a limited amount
of time (1 second by default).
- added the ability to enforce limits on memory usage.
- added the 'source' load-balancing algorithm which uses the source IP(v4|v6)
- re-architectured the server round-robin mechanism to ease integration of
other algorithms. It now relies on the number of active and backup servers.
- added a counter for the number of active and backup servers, and report
these numbers upon SIGHUP or state change.
2006/03/23 : 1.2.10.1
- while fixing the backup server round-robin "feature", a new bug was
introduced which could miss some backup servers.
- the displayed proxy name was wrong when dumping upon SIGHUP.
2006/03/19 : 1.2.10
- assert.h is needed when DEBUG is defined.
- ENORMOUS long standing bug affecting the epoll polling system :
event_data is a union, not a structure !
- Make fd management more robust and easier to debug. Also some
