204 For getting the last system error code, the <literal>ngx_errno</literal> macro | |
205 is available. | |
206 It's mapped to <literal>errno</literal> on POSIX platforms and to | |
207 <literal>GetLastError()</literal> call in Windows. | |
208 For getting the last socket error number, the | |
209 <literal>ngx_socket_errno</literal> macro is available. | |
210 It's mapped to <literal>errno</literal> on POSIX systems as well, | |
211 and to <literal>WSAGetLastError()</literal> call on Windows. | |
212 For performance reasons the values of <literal>ngx_errno</literal> or | |
213 <literal>ngx_socket_errno</literal> should not be accessed more than | |
214 once in a row. | |
215 The error value should be stored in a local variable of type | |
216 <literal>ngx_err_t</literal> for using multiple times, if required. | |
217 For setting errors, <literal>ngx_set_errno(errno)</literal> and | |
218 <literal>ngx_set_socket_errno(errno)</literal> macros are available. | |
219 </para> | |
220 | |
221 <para> | |
222 The values of <literal>ngx_errno</literal> or | |

267 For C strings, nginx code uses unsigned character type pointer | |
268 <literal>u_char *</literal>. | |
269 </para> | |
270 | |
271 <para> | |
272 The nginx string type <literal>ngx_str_t</literal> is defined as follows: | |
273 </para> | |
274 | |
275 | |
276 <programlisting> | |
277 typedef struct { | |
278 size_t len; | |
279 u_char *data; | |
280 } ngx_str_t; | |
281 </programlisting> | |
282 | |
283 <para> | |
284 The <literal>len</literal> field holds the string length, | |
285 <literal>data</literal> holds the string data. | |
286 The string, held in <literal>ngx_str_t</literal>, may or may not be | |
287 null-terminated after the <literal>len</literal> bytes. | |
288 In most cases it’s not. | |
289 However, in certain parts of code (for example, when parsing configuration), | |
290 <literal>ngx_str_t</literal> objects are known to be null-terminated, and that | |
291 knowledge is used to simplify string comparison and makes it easier to pass | |
292 those strings to syscalls. | |
293 </para> | |
294 | |
295 <para> | |
296 A number of string operations are provided in nginx. | |

738 List in nginx is a sequence of arrays, optimized for inserting a potentially | |
739 large number of items. The list type is defined as follows: | |
740 </para> | |
741 | |
742 | |
743 <programlisting> | |
744 typedef struct { | |
745 ngx_list_part_t *last; | |

749 ngx_pool_t *pool; | |
750 } ngx_list_t; | |
751 </programlisting> | |
752 | |
753 <para> | |
754 The actual items are store in list parts, defined as follows: | |

765 }; | |
766 </programlisting> | |
767 | |
768 <para> | |
769 Initially, a list must be initialized by calling | |
770 <literal>ngx_list_init(list, pool, n, size)</literal> or created by calling | |
771 <literal>ngx_list_create(pool, n, size)</literal>. | |
772 Both functions receive the size of a single item and a number of items per list | |
773 part. | |
774 The <literal>ngx_list_push(list)</literal> function is used to add an item to the | |
775 list. Iterating over the items is done by direct accessing the list fields, as | |
776 seen in the example: | |

821 The primary use for the list in nginx is HTTP input and output headers. | |

824 <para> | |
825 The list does not support item removal. | |
826 However, when needed, items can internally be marked as missing without actual | |
827 removing from the list. | |
828 For example, HTTP output headers which are stored as | |
829 <literal>ngx_table_elt_t</literal> objects, are marked as missing by setting | |
830 the <literal>hash</literal> field of <literal>ngx_table_elt_t</literal> to | |
831 zero. Such items are explicitly skipped, when iterating over the headers. | |

961 To deal with a tree as a whole, you need two nodes: root and sentinel. | |
962 Typically, they are added to some custom structure, thus allowing to | |
963 organize your data into a tree which leaves contain a link to or embed | |
964 your data. | |

979 The <literal>insert_value_function</literal> is a function that is | |

1434 Shared memory is used by nginx to share common data between processes. | |
1435 Function <literal>ngx_shared_memory_add(cf, name, size, tag)</literal> adds a | |
1436 new shared memory entry <literal>ngx_shm_zone_t</literal> to the cycle. The | |
1437 function receives <literal>name</literal> and <literal>size</literal> of the | |
1438 zone. | |
1439 Each shared zone must have a unique name. | |
1440 If a shared zone entry with the provided name exists, the old zone entry is | |
1441 reused, if its tag value matches too. | |
1442 Mismatched tag is considered an error. | |
1443 Usually, the address of the module structure is passed as tag, making it | |
1444 possible to reuse shared zones by name within one nginx module. | |

1516 For allocating in shared memory, nginx provides slab pool | |
1517 <literal>ngx_slab_pool_t</literal>. | |
1518 In each nginx shared zone, a slab pool is automatically created for allocating | |
1519 memory in that zone. | |
1520 The pool is located in the beginning of the shared zone and can be accessed by | |
1521 the expression <literal>(ngx_slab_pool_t *) shm_zone->shm.addr</literal>. | |
1522 Allocation in shared zone is done by calling one of the functions | |
1523 <literal>ngx_slab_alloc(pool, size)/ngx_slab_calloc(pool, size)</literal>. | |
1524 Memory is freed by calling <literal>ngx_slab_free(pool, p)</literal>. | |

1528 Slab pool divides all shared zone into pages. | |
1529 Each page is used for allocating objects of the same size. | |
1530 Only the sizes which are powers of 2, and not less than 8, are considered. | |
1531 Other sizes are rounded up to one of these values. | |
1532 For each page, a bitmask is kept, showing which blocks within that page are in | |
1533 use and which are free for allocation. | |
1534 For sizes greater than half-page (usually, 2048 bytes), allocation is done by | |
1535 entire pages. | |

1542 However, it can be used to protect any other user data structures, | |

2212 An nginx connection can transparently encapsulate SSL layer. | |
2213 In this case the connection <literal>ssl</literal> field holds a pointer to an | |
2214 <literal>ngx_ssl_connection_t</literal> structure, keeping all SSL-related data | |
2215 for the connection, including <literal>SSL_CTX</literal> and | |
2216 <literal>SSL</literal>. | |
2217 The handlers <literal>recv</literal>, <literal>send</literal>, | |

2223 The number of connections per nginx worker is limited by the | |
2224 <literal>worker_connections</literal> value. | |
2225 All connection structures are pre-created when a worker starts and stored in | |
2226 the <literal>connections</literal> field of the cycle object. | |
2227 To reach out for a connection structure, <literal>ngx_get_connection(s, | |
2228 log)</literal> function is used. | |
2229 The function receives a socket descriptor <literal>s</literal> which needs to | |
2230 be wrapped in a connection structure. | |
2231 </para> | |
2232 | |
2233 <para> | |
2234 Since the number of connections per worker is limited, nginx provides a | |
2235 way to grab connections which are currently in use. | |
2236 To enable or disable reuse of a connection, function | |
2237 <literal>ngx_reusable_connection(c, reusable)</literal> is called. | |
2238 Calling <literal>ngx_reusable_connection(c, 1)</literal> sets the | |
2239 <literal>reuse</literal> flag of the connection structure and inserts the | |
2240 connection in the <literal>reusable_connections_queue</literal> of the cycle. | |
2241 Whenever <literal>ngx_get_connection()</literal> finds out there are no | |
2242 available connections in the <literal>free_connections</literal> list of the | |
2243 cycle, it calls <literal>ngx_drain_connections()</literal> to release a | |
2244 specific number of reusable connections. | |
2245 For each such connection, the <literal>close</literal> flag is set and its read | |
2246 handler is called which is supposed to free the connection by calling | |
2247 <literal>ngx_close_connection(c)</literal> and make it available for reuse. | |
2248 To exit the state when a connection can be reused | |
2249 <literal>ngx_reusable_connection(c, 0)</literal> is called. | |
2250 An example of reusable connections in nginx is HTTP client connections which | |
2251 are marked as reusable until some data is received from the client. | |

2363 Each connection, received with the | |
2364 <literal>ngx_get_connection()</literal> call, has two events attached to it: | |
2365 <literal>c->read</literal> and <literal>c->write</literal>. | |
2366 These events are used to receive notifications about the socket being ready for | |
2367 reading or writing. | |
2368 All such events operate in Edge-Triggered mode, meaning that they only trigger | |
2369 notifications when the state of the socket changes. | |
2370 For example, doing a partial read on a socket will not make nginx deliver a | |
2371 repeated read notification until more data arrive in the socket. | |
2372 Even when the underlying I/O notification mechanism is essentially | |
2373 Level-Triggered (poll, select etc), nginx will turn the notifications into | |
2374 Edge-Triggered. | |
2375 To make nginx event notifications consistent across all notifications systems | |
2376 on different platforms, it's required, that the functions | |
2377 <literal>ngx_handle_read_event(rev, flags)</literal> and | |

2390 An event can be set to notify a timeout expiration. | |
2391 The function <literal>ngx_add_timer(ev, timer)</literal> sets a timeout for an | |
2392 event, <literal>ngx_del_timer(ev)</literal> deletes a previously set timeout. | |
2393 Timeouts currently set for all existing events, are kept in a global timeout | |
2394 Red-Black tree <literal>ngx_event_timer_rbtree</literal>. | |
2395 The key in that tree has the type <literal>ngx_msec_t</literal> and is the time | |
2396 in milliseconds since the beginning of January 1, 1970 (modulus | |
2397 <literal>ngx_msec_t</literal> max value) at which the event should expire. | |
2398 The tree structure provides fast inserting and deleting operations, as well as | |
2399 accessing the nearest timeouts. | |
2400 The latter is used by nginx to find out for how long to wait for I/O events | |
2401 and for expiring timeout events afterwards. | |

2410 An event can be posted which means that its handler will be called at some | |
2411 point later within the current event loop iteration. | |
2412 Posting events is a good practice for simplifying code and escaping stack | |
2413 overflows. | |
2414 Posted events are held in a post queue. | |
2415 The macro <literal>ngx_post_event(ev, q)</literal> posts the event | |
2416 <literal>ev</literal> to the post queue <literal>q</literal>. | |
2417 Macro <literal>ngx_delete_posted_event(ev)</literal> deletes the event | |
2418 <literal>ev</literal> from whatever queue it's currently posted. | |
2419 Normally, events are posted to the <literal>ngx_posted_events</literal> queue. | |
