# HG changeset patch # User Maxim Dounin # Date 1635550759 -10800 # Node ID c7a8bdf5af55f1f9d878d52a8e229eeb3b3acbb5 # Parent e3dbd9449b14e6419e460350ab5983be878260b1 Changed ngx_chain_update_chains() to test tag first (ticket #2248). Without this change, aio used with HTTP/2 can result in connection hang, as observed with "aio threads; aio_write on;" and proxying (ticket #2248). The problem is that HTTP/2 updates buffers outside of the output filters (notably, marks them as sent), and then posts a write event to call output filters. If a filter does not call the next one for some reason (for example, because of an AIO operation in progress), this might result in a state when the owner of a buffer already called ngx_chain_update_chains() and can reuse the buffer, while the same buffer is still sitting in the busy chain of some other filter. In the particular case a buffer was sitting in output chain's ctx->busy, and was reused by event pipe. Output chain's ctx->busy was permanently blocked by it, and this resulted in connection hang. Fix is to change ngx_chain_update_chains() to skip buffers from other modules unconditionally, without trying to wait for these buffers to become empty. diff --git a/src/core/ngx_buf.c b/src/core/ngx_buf.c --- a/src/core/ngx_buf.c +++ b/src/core/ngx_buf.c @@ -203,16 +203,16 @@ ngx_chain_update_chains(ngx_pool_t *p, n while (*busy) { cl = *busy; - if (ngx_buf_size(cl->buf) != 0) { - break; - } - if (cl->buf->tag != tag) { *busy = cl->next; ngx_free_chain(p, cl); continue; } + if (ngx_buf_size(cl->buf) != 0) { + break; + } + cl->buf->pos = cl->buf->start; cl->buf->last = cl->buf->start;
