Changes with nginx 1.7.11 24 Mar
2015
*) Change: the "sendfile" parameter of the "aio" directive is
deprecated; now nginx automatically uses AIO to pre-load data for
sendfile if both "aio" and "sendfile" directives are used.
*) Feature: experimental thread pools support.
*) Feature: the "proxy_request_buffering",
“fastcgi_request_buffering”,
“scgi_request_buffering”, and “uwsgi_request_buffering”
directives.
*) Feature: request body filters experimental API.
*) Feature: client SSL certificates support in mail proxy.
Thanks to Sven Peter, Franck Levionnois, and Filipe Da Silva.
*) Feature: startup speedup when using the "hash ... consistent"
directive in the upstream block.
Thanks to Wai Keen Woon.
*) Feature: debug logging into a cyclic memory buffer.
*) Bugfix: in hash table handling.
Thanks to Chris West.
*) Bugfix: in the "proxy_cache_revalidate" directive.
*) Bugfix: SSL connections might hang if deferred accept or the
"proxy_protocol" parameter of the "listen" directive were used.
Thanks to James Hamlin.
*) Bugfix: the $upstream_response_time variable might contain a
wrong
value if the “image_filter” directive was used.
*) Bugfix: in integer overflow handling.
Thanks to Régis Leroy.
*) Bugfix: it was not possible to enable SSLv3 with LibreSSL.
*) Bugfix: the "ignoring stale global SSL error ... called a
function
you should not call" alerts appeared in logs when using LibreSSL.
*) Bugfix: certificates specified by the "ssl_client_certificate"
and
“ssl_trusted_certificate” directives were inadvertently used to
automatically construct certificate chains.
