FUTURE SCHEDULED BEHAVIOR CHANGES (estimated Jan 2022):
- graceful restart/shutdown default timeout will change from 0 (infinite/no timeout) to 5 seconds (or some similar non-zero period)
configure an alternative with:
server.feature-flags += (“server.graceful-shutdown-timeout” => 5) - lighttpd (optional) dependencies on libev and on FAM are deprecated.
lighttpd event loop and file monitoring use native OS interfaces
except on obscure platforms. FAM and gamin appear to be abandoned.
Package maintainers on Linux and *BSD: please remove —with-libev and —with-fam from package builds
lighttpd uses epoll() on Linux, kqueue() on *BSD for event notification.
lighttpd uses inotify() on Linux, kqueue() on *BSD for file monitoring. - lighttpd will default to —with-pcre2 instead of —with-pcre
pcre2 is current. pcre is no longer maintained.
Explicitly specify —with-pcre in build to use pcre instead of pcre2.
