<br />
<subsection name="Native">
<changelog>
<fix>

<fix>
<bug>41923</bug>: AJP: Close AJP connection to Tomcat on client write
error when recovery_options 4 is specified, aborting the response
write on the Tomcat side. (timw)
</fix>
<update>
AJP: Cap the lingering bytes that will be read
when shutting down an AJP socket at 32k to prevent CPU spikes
in the web server when a client aborts on a large response body.
Also reduce total linger time to 2s. (timw)
</update>
<fix>
<bug>50839</bug>: AJP: Fix 30sec CPU spike due to incorrect counting
of lingering bytes causing a busy loop when a client aborts
connection during a response write.

"JK_LB_ACTIVATION". Possible values are "ACT" (active),
"DIS" (disabled) and "STP" (stopped). (rjung)
</add>
<fix>
HTTPD: Forward WWW-Authenticate from backend when status is 401
and server generated error pages are used. (rjung)

bodies for 204, 205 and 304 responses. (timw)
</fix>

ISAPI redirector used as an extension without the corresponding

<fix>
Changed the load balancer algorithm.
The idea behind this new scheduler is the following:
lbfactor is <i>how much we expect this worker to work</i>,
or <i>the worker's work quota</i>.
lbstatus is <i>how urgent this worker has to work to fulfill its quota
of work</i>. We distribute each worker's work quota to the worker, and then look
which of them needs to work most urgently (biggest lbstatus). This
worker is then selected for work, and its lbstatus reduced by the
total work quota we distributed to all workers. Thus the sum of all
lbstatus does not change.(*)
If some workers are disabled, the others will
still be scheduled correctly. (mturk)

<p>JK2 has been put in maintainer mode and no further development will take place.
The reason for shutting down JK2 development was the lack of developers interest.
Other reason was lack of users interest in adopting JK2, caused by configuration
