Lingering close for connections with pipelined requests. This is expected to help with clients using pipelining with some constant depth, such as apt[1][2]. When downloading many resources, apt uses pipelining with some constant depth, a number of requests in flight. This essentially means that after receiving a response it sends an additional request to the server, and this can result in requests arriving to the server at any time. Further, additional requests are sent one-by-one, and can be easily seen as such (neither as pipelined, nor followed by pipelined requests). The only safe approach to close such connections (for example, when keepalive_requests is reached) is with lingering. To do so, now nginx monitors if pipelining was used on the connection, and if it was, closes the connection with lingering.
