Given the present typical SSL session sizes, on 32-bit platforms it is
now beneficial to store all data in a single allocation, since rbtree
node + session id + ASN1 representation of a session takes 256 bytes of
shared memory (36 + 32 + 150 = about 218 bytes plus SNI server name).
Storing all data in a single allocation is beneficial for SNI names up to
about 40 characters long and makes it possible to store about 4000 sessions
in one megabyte (instead of about 3000 sessions now). This also slightly
simplifies the code.
Session ids are not expected to be longer than 32 bytes, but this is
theoretically possible with TLSv1.3, where session ids are essentially
arbitrary and sent as session tickets. Since on 64-bit platforms we
use fixed 32-byte buffer for session ids, added an explicit length check
to make sure the buffer is large enough.
Session cache allocations might fail as long as the new session is different
in size from the one least recently used (and freed when the first allocation
fails). In particular, it might not be possible to allocate space for
sessions with client certificates, since they are noticeably bigger than
normal sessions.
To ensure such allocation failures won't clutter logs, logging level changed
to "warn", and logging is now limited to at most one warning per second.
OpenSSL tries to save TLSv1.3 sessions into session cache even when using
tickets for stateless session resumption, "because some applications just
want to know about the creation of a session". To avoid trashing session
cache with useless data, we do not save such sessions now.
The variables have prefix $proxy_protocol_tlv_ and are accessible by name
and by type. Examples are: $proxy_protocol_tlv_0x01, $proxy_protocol_tlv_alpn.
Previously, all received user input was logged. If a multi-line text was
received from client and logged, it could reduce log readability and also make
it harder to parse nginx log by scripts. The change brings to PROXY protocol
the same behavior that exists for HTTP request line in
ngx_http_log_error_handler().
SSL_sendfile() expects integer file descriptor as an argument, but nginx
uses OS file handles (HANDLE) to work with files on Windows, and passing
HANDLE instead of an integer correctly results in build failure. Since
SSL_sendfile() is not expected to work on Windows anyway, the code is now
disabled on Windows with appropriate compile-time checks.
Multiple C4306 warnings (conversion from 'type1' to 'type2' of greater size)
appear during 64-bit compilation with MSVC 2010 (and older) due to extensively
used constructs like "(void *) -1", so they were disabled.
In newer MSVC versions C4306 warnings were replaced with C4312 ones, and
these are not generated for such trivial type casts.
In 2014ed60f17f, "#if SSL_CTRL_SET_ECDH_AUTO" test was incorrectly used
instead of "#ifdef SSL_CTRL_SET_ECDH_AUTO". There is no practical
difference, since SSL_CTRL_SET_ECDH_AUTO evaluates to a non-zero numeric
value when defined, but anyway it's better to correctly test if the value
is defined.
All these events are created in context of a client connection and are deleted
when the connection is closed. Setting ev->cancelable could trigger premature
connection closure and a socket leak alert.
Now main QUIC connection for HTTP/3 always has c->idle flag set. This allows
the connection to receive worker shutdown notification. It is passed to
application level via a new conf->shutdown() callback.
The HTTP/3 shutdown callback sends GOAWAY to client and gracefully shuts down
the QUIC connection.
Previously, stream was kept alive until all its data is sent. This resulted
in disabling retransmission of final part of stream when QUIC connection
was closed right after closing stream connection.
The connection is automatically switched to this mode by transport layer when
there are no non-cancelable streams. Currently, cancelable streams are
HTTP/3 encoder/decoder/control streams.
Previously, ngx_quic_finalize_connection() closed the connection with NGX_ERROR
code, which resulted in immediate connection closure. Now the code is NGX_OK,
which provides a more graceful shutdown with a timeout.
Previously, zero was used for this purpose. However, NGX_QUIC_ERR_NO_ERROR is
zero too. As a result, NGX_QUIC_ERR_NO_ERROR was changed to
NGX_QUIC_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR when closing a QUIC connection.
If a client packet carrying a stream data frame is not acked due to packet loss,
the stream data is retransmitted later by client. It's also possible that the
retransmitted range is bigger than before due to more stream data being
available by then. If the original data was read out by the application,
there would be no read event triggered by the retransmitted frame, even though
it contains new data.
They are not supported by MSVC till 2012.
SSL_QUIC_METHOD initialization is moved to run-time to preserve portability
among SSL library implementations, which allows to reduce its visibility.
Note using of a static storage to keep SSL_set_quic_method() reference valid.
Previously, ngx_quic_hkdf_t variables used declaration with assignment
in the middle of a function, which is not supported by MSVC 2010.
Fixing this also required to rewrite the ngx_quic_hkdf_set macro
and to switch to an explicit array size.
Previously, HTTP/3 stream connection didn't inherit the servername regex
from the main QUIC connection saved when processing SNI and using regular
expressions in server names. As a result, it didn't execute to set regex
captures when choosing the virtual server while parsing HTTP/3 headers.
The type field was added in 7999d3fbb765 at early stages of QUIC implementation
and was not initialized for default listen. Missing initialization resulted in
default listen socket creation error.
SSL_CIPHER_get_protocol_id() appeared in BoringSSL somewhere between
BORINGSSL_API_VERSION 12 and 13 for compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1.
It was adopted without a proper macro test, which remained unnoticed.
This justifies that such old BoringSSL API isn't widely used and its
support can be dropped.
While here, removed SSL_set_quic_use_legacy_codepoint() that became
useless after the default was flipped in BoringSSL over a year ago.
Setting QUIC methods is converted to use C99 designated initializers
for simplicity, as LibreSSL 3.6.0 has different SSL_QUIC_METHOD layout.
Additionally, only set_read_secret/set_write_secret callbacks are set.
Although they are preferred in LibreSSL over set_encryption_secrets,
better be on a safe side as LibreSSL has unexpectedly incompatible
set_encryption_secrets calling convention expressed in passing read
and write secrets split in separate calls, unlike this is documented
in old BoringSSL sources. To avoid introducing further changes for
the old API, it is simply disabled.
This function is present in QuicTLS only. After SSL_READ_EARLY_DATA_SUCCESS
became visible in LibreSSL together with experimental QUIC API, this required
to revise the conditional compilation test to use more narrow macros.
After BoringSSL aligned[1] with OpenSSL on TLS1_3_CK_* macros, and
LibreSSL uses OpenSSL naming, our own variants can be dropped now.
Compatibility is preserved with libraries that lack these macros.
Additionally, transition to SSL_CIPHER_get_id() fixes build error
with LibreSSL that doesn't implement SSL_CIPHER_get_protocol_id().

The SSL_R_BAD_RECORD_TYPE ("bad record type") errors are reported by
OpenSSL 1.1.1 or newer when using TLSv1.3 if the client sends a record
with unknown or unexpected type. These errors are now logged at the
"info" level.
When client DATA frame header and its content come in different QUIC packets,
it may happen that only the header is processed by the first
ngx_http_v3_request_body_filter() call. In this case an empty request body
buffer is added to r->request_body->bufs, which is later reused in a
subsequent ngx_http_v3_request_body_filter() call without being removed from
the body chain. As a result, rb->request_body->bufs ends up with two copies of
the same buffer.
The fix is to avoid adding empty request body buffers to r->request_body->bufs.
