Upstream: fixed cache corruption and socket leaks with aio_write. The ngx_event_pipe() function wasn't called on write events with wev->delayed set. As a result, threaded writing results weren't properly collected in ngx_event_pipe_write_to_downstream() when a write event was triggered for a completed write. Further, this wasn't detected, as p->aio was reset by a thread completion handler, and results were later collected in ngx_event_pipe_read_upstream() instead of scheduling a new write of additional data. If this happened on the last reading from an upstream, last part of the response was never written to the cache file. Similar problems might also happen in case of timeouts when writing to client, as this also results in ngx_event_pipe() not being called on write events. In this scenario socket leaks were observed. Fix is to check if p->writing is set in ngx_event_pipe_read_upstream(), and therefore collect results of previous write operations in case of read events as well, similar to how we do so in ngx_event_pipe_write_downstream(). This is enough to fix the wev->delayed case. Additionally, we now call ngx_event_pipe() from ngx_http_upstream_process_request() if there are uncollected write operations (p->writing and !p->aio). This also fixes the wev->timedout case.
