Event pipe: do not set file's thread_handler if not needed.
This fixes a problem with aio threads and sendfile with aio_write switched
off, as observed with range requests after fc72784b1f52 (1.9.13). Potential
problems with sendfile in threads were previously described in 9fd738b85fad,
and this seems to be one of them.
The problem occurred as file's thread_handler was set to NULL by event pipe
code after a sendfile thread task was scheduled. As a result, no sendfile
completion code was executed, and the same buffer was additionally sent
using non-threaded sendfile. Fix is to avoid modifying file's thread_handler
if aio_write is switched off.
Note that with "aio_write on" it is still possible that sendfile will use
thread_handler as set by event pipe. This is believed to be safe though,
as handlers used are compatible.

It is known for its high performance, stability, rich feature set, simple configuration, and low resource consumption. .Pp The options are as follows: .Bl -tag -width ".Fl d Ar directives" .It Fl ?\& , h Print help. .It Fl c Ar file Use an alternative configuration .Ar file . .It Fl g Ar directives Set global configuration directives. See .Sx EXAMPLES for details. .It Fl p Ar prefix Set the prefix path. The default value is .Pa %%PREFIX%% . .It Fl q Suppress non-error messages during configuration testing. .It Fl s Ar signal Send a signal to the master process. The argument .Ar signal can be one of: .Cm stop , quit , reopen , reload . The following table shows the corresponding system signals: .Pp .Bl -tag -width ".Cm reopen" -compact .It Cm stop .Dv SIGTERM .It Cm quit .Dv SIGQUIT .It Cm reopen .Dv SIGUSR1 .It Cm reload .Dv SIGHUP .El .It Fl t Do not run, just test the configuration file. .Nm checks the configuration file syntax and then tries to open files referenced in the configuration file. .It Fl T Same as .Fl t , but additionally dump configuration files to standard output. .It Fl V Print the .Nm version, compiler version, and .Pa configure script parameters. .It Fl v Print the .Nm version. .El .Sh SIGNALS The master process of .Nm can handle the following signals: .Pp .Bl -tag -width ".Dv SIGINT , SIGTERM" -compact .It Dv SIGINT , SIGTERM Shut down quickly. .It Dv SIGHUP Reload configuration, start the new worker process with a new configuration, and gracefully shut down old worker processes. .It Dv SIGQUIT Shut down gracefully. .It Dv SIGUSR1 Reopen log files. .It Dv SIGUSR2 Upgrade the .Nm executable on the fly. .It Dv SIGWINCH Shut down worker processes gracefully. .El .Pp While there is no need to explicitly control worker processes normally, they support some signals too: .Pp .Bl -tag -width ".Dv SIGINT , SIGTERM" -compact .It Dv SIGTERM Shut down quickly. .It Dv SIGQUIT Shut down gracefully. .It Dv SIGUSR1 Reopen log files. .El .Sh DEBUGGING LOG To enable a debugging log, reconfigure .Nm to build with debugging: .Pp .Dl "./configure --with-debug ..." .Pp and then set the .Cm debug level of the .Va error_log : .Pp .Dl "error_log /path/to/log debug;" .Pp It is also possible to enable the debugging for a particular IP address: .Bd -literal -offset indent events { debug_connection 127.0.0.1; } .Ed .Sh ENVIRONMENT The .Ev NGINX environment variable is used internally by .Nm and should not be set directly by the user. .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width indent .It Pa %%PID_PATH%% Contains the process ID of .Nm . The contents of this file are not sensitive, so it can be world-readable. .It Pa %%CONF_PATH%% The main configuration file. .It Pa %%ERROR_LOG_PATH%% Error log file. .El .Sh EXIT STATUS Exit status is 0 on success, or 1 if the command fails. .Sh EXAMPLES Test configuration file .Pa ~/mynginx.conf with global directives for PID and quantity of worker processes: .Bd -literal -offset indent nginx -t -c ~/mynginx.conf \e -g "pid /var/run/mynginx.pid; worker_processes 2;" .Ed .Sh SEE ALSO .\"Xr nginx.conf 5 .\"Pp Documentation at .Pa http://nginx.org/en/docs/ . .Pp For questions and technical support, please refer to .Pa http://nginx.org/en/support.html . .Sh HISTORY Development of .Nm started in 2002, with the first public release on October 4, 2004. .Sh AUTHORS .An -nosplit .An Igor Sysoev Aq igor@sysoev.ru . .Pp This manual page was originally written by .An Sergey A. Osokin Aq osa@FreeBSD.org.ru as a result of compiling many .Nm documents from all over the world.
