Change the compile switches for ReliantUNIX SVR4 not to use
SYSV semaphores, because upon reaching the system limit of
semaphores, the whole server exits (not just one child).
Apache could be improved to use Dean's NO_SEM_UNDO flag (see test/time-sem.c)
which is currently implemented only in the time-sem test program, but not in
apache. Until then, revert to using fcntl() locks.
On TPF, "HAVE_ISNAN" is erroneously being defined (due to cross-platform
compiler issues unique to TPF). TPF needs this patch to ignore the
TestCompile results.

Resolve the win32 exec cmd bug, at least as far as some unixes support
it. Presume the command contains a filepath and transpose forward
slashes to backslashes in the path. (Note part of the bug, correctly
identified by the poster of 7415, was the /c flag being transposed to \c).
There has to be a better way, but at least this is now partially, and not
entirely broken. Command.com _does_ accept quoted file paths with spaces

Fix two bugs in ab:
1) The Host: header was not filled in correctly (it used the proxyhost,
not the destination host), and
2) on POST requests, the wrong path was used.
*Sigh.* Taking tjis back out *again,* to keep things fast in the default case.
This appears not to be expected to return the port in all cases; module
authors should not expect this to be the case.
Needed to check this, but ap_parse_uri_components was not ensuring that
the parsed uri's port field was set. This one-liner takes care of that.

It turns out that 'ab' has been under reporting apache's performance
for years; this patch fixes that; and also adds
- median/standard deviation calculations; to get an
idea of how good your measurement is. And a warning
if results are way out of bound.
- prints a 'percentile' table. Which shows the time it
took to process 50,66,80,90 etc percent of the requests.
- fixes a significant int overrun bug which caused longer
runs to generate realistic but totally bogus results. And
also changes in the write/pipe error handling to not cause
those skew a test unnoticed) Credits to Sander Temme
<sander@covalent.net> for solving this riddle.
- add's gnuplot/CSV output for postprocessing.
- adds very rudimentary SSL support.

This presentation will describe a facility for testing web
server performance and will present some test results

Sorry for the size of the patch - but for various reasons we did not

I added configurable EBCDIC configuration functionality to http_core.c;
because conversion is a base feature, this looked like the only sensible
place to me. Other basic features like Resource limits live there too.
* make EBCDIC conversion truly configurable. Up to know, there was a
hardwired assumption that only files of MIME type text/* (and a few
exceptions) could be EBCDIC files; and everything else HAD TO BE
binary. This assumption breaks (again and again) for MIME types like
application/postscript, model/vrml, application/x-javascript and
others, which can never be stored as EBCDIC text files.
I now implemented two new directives for defining the conversion
based on MIME type or file extension. The conversion can be set for
upload and download independently, on or off, for any file.
* make EBCDIC conversion symmetric. Up to now, there was no clean way
to deal with uploaded content (POST with Content-Type:, PUT with
Content-Type:) because a) there was no MIME checker attached to the
header-reader, and b) you could not actually define a conversion
based on MIME type. Both deficiencies have now been addressed (the
ap_checkconv_in() routine is called upon parsing of an uploaded
Content-Type: line, and it can set a flag which is different from
the download conversion flag. Also, its change is triggered at a
different phase in the request handling: the upload conversion
is set as soon as a Content-Type: for an uploaded document is
detected, but the download conversion is only set when the
response is about to be returned). All this was impossible in the
past.
* unify the EBCDIC tables to be in a single common file
src/ap/ap_ebcdic.c (and src/include/ap_ebcdic.h) instead
of having redundant copies under src/os/{tpf,bs2000,os390}/ebcdic.{c,h}
The common file will have the correct translation table
conditionally compiled based on #ifdef TPF/OS390/_OSD_POSIX.
Up to now, each EBCDIC had its own copy, cloned and slightly
adapted.
* Also, put the conversion checker ap_checkconv() to http_core,
because is is an essential central cog in the whole conversion
clockwork. Until now, three almost incompatible copies were
spread throughout the EBCDIC platforms' os.c files.
