Looking into the big loop code, it may happen that the worker process may close the keepalive connection before consuming any pending read events?
for ( ;; ) { if (ngx_exiting) { if (ngx_event_no_timers_left() == NGX_OK) { ngx_log_error(NGX_LOG_NOTICE, cycle->log, 0, "exiting"); ngx_worker_process_exit(cycle); } } ngx_log_debug0(NGX_LOG_DEBUG_EVENT, cycle->log, 0, "worker cycle"); ngx_process_events_and_timers(cycle); if (ngx_terminate) { ngx_log_error(NGX_LOG_NOTICE, cycle->log, 0, "exiting"); ngx_worker_process_exit(cycle); } if (ngx_quit) { ngx_quit = 0; ngx_log_error(NGX_LOG_NOTICE, cycle->log, 0, "gracefully shutting down"); ngx_setproctitle("worker process is shutting down"); if (!ngx_exiting) { ngx_exiting = 1; ngx_set_shutdown_timer(cycle); ngx_close_listening_sockets(cycle); ngx_close_idle_connections(cycle); <--what if a read event is coming when goes here? } } Posted at Nginx Forum: https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,197927,290794#msg-290794 _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
