(<code>AP_FTYPE_PROTOCOL</code>, - <code>AP_FTYPE_TRANSCODE</code>)</dd> - - <dt><code>RESOURCE</code></dt> - <dd>Filters of this type are valid for the time that this content is used - to satisfy a request. For simple requests, this is identical to - <code>PROTOCOL</code>, but internal redirects and sub-requests can change - the content without ending the request. (<code>AP_FTYPE_RESOURCE</code>, - <code>AP_FTYPE_CONTENT_SET</code>)</dd> - </dl> - - <p>It is important to make the distinction between a protocol and a - resource filter. A resource filter is tied to a specific resource, it - may also be tied to header information, but the main binding is to a - resource. If you are writing a filter and you want to know if it is - resource or protocol, the correct question to ask is: "Can this filter - be removed if the request is redirected to a different resource?" If - the answer is yes, then it is a resource filter. If it is no, then it - is most likely a protocol or connection filter. I won't go into - connection filters, because they seem to be well understood. With this - definition, a few examples might help:</p> - - <dl> - <dt>Byterange</dt> - <dd>We have coded it to be inserted for all requests, and it is removed - if not used. Because this filter is active at the beginning of all - requests, it can not be removed if it is redirected, so this is a - protocol filter.</dd> - - <dt>http_header</dt> - <dd>This filter actually writes the headers to the network. This is - obviously a required filter (except in the asis case which is special - and will be dealt with below) and so it is a protocol filter.</dd> - - <dt>Deflate</dt> - <dd>The administrator configures this filter based on which file has been - requested. If we do an internal redirect from an autoindex page to an - index.html page, the deflate filter may be added or removed based on - config, so this is a resource filter.</dd> - </dl> - - <p>The further breakdown of each category into two more filter types is - strictly for ordering. We could remove it, and only allow for one - filter type, but the order would tend to be wrong, and we would need to - hack things to make it work. Currently, the <code>RESOURCE</code> filters - only have one filter type, but that should change.</p> -</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> -<div class="section"> -<h2><a name="howinserted" id="howinserted">How are filters inserted?</a></h2> - <p>This is actually rather simple in theory, but the code is - complex. First of all, it is important that everybody realize that - there are three filter lists for each request, but they are all - concatenated together. So, the first list is - <code>r->output_filters</code>, then <code>r->proto_output_filters</code>, - and finally <code>r->connection->output_filters</code>. These correspond - to the <code>RESOURCE</code>, <code>PROTOCOL</code>, and - <code>CONNECTION</code> filters respectively. The problem previously, was - that we used a singly linked list to create the filter stack, and we - started from the "correct" location. This means that if I had a - <code>RESOURCE</code> filter on the stack, and I added a - <code>CONNECTION</code> filter, the <code>CONNECTION</code> filter would - be ignored. This should make sense, because we would insert the connection - filter at the top of the <code>c->output_filters</code> list, but the end - of <code>r->output_filters</code> pointed to the filter that used to be - at the front of <code>c->output_filters</code>. This is obviously wrong. - The new insertion code uses a doubly linked list. This has the advantage - that we never lose a filter that has been inserted. Unfortunately, it comes - with a separate set of headaches.</p> - - <p>The problem is that we have two different cases were we use subrequests. - The first is to insert more data into a response. The second is to - replace the existing response with an internal redirect. These are two - different cases and need to be treated as such.</p> - - <p>In the first case, we are creating the subrequest from within a handler - or filter. This means that the next filter should be passed to - <code>make_sub_request</code> function, and the last resource filter in the - sub-request will point to the next filter in the main request. This - makes sense, because the sub-request's data needs to flow through the - same set of filters as the main request. A graphical representation - might help:</p> - -<div class="example"><pre> -Default_handler --> includes_filter --> byterange --> ... -</pre></div> - - <p>If the includes filter creates a sub request, then we don't want the - data from that sub-request to go through the includes filter, because it - might not be SSI data. So, the subrequest adds the following:</p> - -<div class="example"><pre> -Default_handler --> includes_filter -/-> byterange --> ... - / -Default_handler --> sub_request_core -</pre></div> - - <p>What happens if the subrequest is SSI data? Well, that's easy, the - <code>includes_filter</code> is a resource filter, so it will be added to - the sub request in between the <code>Default_handler</code> and the - <code>sub_request_core</code> filter.</p> - - <p>The second case for sub-requests is when one sub-request is going to - become the real request. This happens whenever a sub-request is created - outside of a handler or filter, and NULL is passed as the next filter to - the <code>make_sub_request</code> function.</p> - - <p>In this case, the resource filters no longer make sense for the new - request, because the resource has changed. So, instead of starting from - scratch, we simply point the front of the resource filters for the - sub-request to the front of the protocol filters for the old request. - This means that we won't lose any of the protocol filters, neither will - we try to send this data through a filter that shouldn't see it.</p> - - <p>The problem is that we are using a doubly-linked list for our filter - stacks now. But, you should notice that it is possible for two lists to - intersect in this model. So, you do you handle the previous pointer? - This is a very difficult question to answer, because there is no "right" - answer, either method is equally valid. I looked at why we use the - previous pointer. The only reason for it is to allow for easier - addition of new servers. With that being said, the solution I chose was - to make the previous pointer always stay on the original request.</p> - - <p>This causes some more complex logic, but it works for all cases. My - concern in having it move to the sub-request, is that for the more - common case (where a sub-request is used to add data to a response), the - main filter chain would be wrong. That didn't seem like a good idea to - me.</p> -</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> -<div class="section"> -<h2><a name="asis" id="asis">Asis</a></h2> - <p>The final topic. :-) Mod_Asis is a bit of a hack, but the - handler needs to remove all filters except for connection filters, and - send the data. If you are using <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_asis.html">mod_asis</a></code>, all other - bets are off.</p> -</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> -<div class="section"> -<h2><a name="conclusion" id="conclusion">Explanations</a></h2> - <p>The absolutely last point is that the reason this code was so hard to - get right, was because we had hacked so much to force it to work. I - wrote most of the hacks originally, so I am very much to blame. - However, now that the code is right, I have started to remove some - hacks. Most people should have seen that the <code>reset_filters</code> - and <code>add_required_filters</code> functions are gone. Those inserted - protocol level filters for error conditions, in fact, both functions did - the same thing, one after the other, it was really strange. Because we - don't lose protocol filters for error cases any more, those hacks went away. - The <code>HTTP_HEADER</code>, <code>Content-length</code>, and - <code>Byterange</code> filters are all added in the - <code>insert_filters</code> phase, because if they were added earlier, we - had some interesting interactions. Now, those could all be moved to be - inserted with the <code>HTTP_IN</code>, <code>CORE</code>, and - <code>CORE_IN</code> filters. That would make the code easier to - follow.</p> -</div></div> -<div class="bottomlang"> -<p><span>Available Languages: </span><a href="../en/developer/filters.html" title="English"> en </a></p> -</div><div id="footer"> -<p class="apache">Copyright 2009 The Apache Software Foundation.<br />Licensed under the <a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0">Apache License, Version 2.0</a>.</p> -<p class="menu"><a href="../mod/">Modules</a> | <a href="../mod/directives.html">Directives</a> | <a href="../faq/">FAQ</a> | <a href="../glossary.html">Glossary</a> | <a href="../sitemap.html">Sitemap</a></p></div> -</body></html>
