Description

When I use stream with js_filter for proxying to the http server, I get the following:
curl localhost: port1 / somefile - endless download occurs

And it happens periodically, it is not clear why. But if I comment js_filter, then this is not observed

#stream.conf
stream {

js_include fix.js
server {

listen port1;
js_filter fix;
proxy_pass 127.0.0.1:port2;

}

}

#fix.js
function fix(s) {

s.on('upload', function(data, flags) { ... })

}

You provided a large chunk of code. why do you think the issue is in njs and not in your code? If you are sure that the problem is in njs, please, narrow it down to the simplest code snippet possible.

comment:3 by Maxim Dounin, 5 years ago

Just to make sure it is not overlooked: the code in question can be instructed to produce arbitrary large amount of data in chunk_last():

        s.send('0'.repeat(chunk_len) + '\r\n')

While this may not be the immediate reason for the behaviour observed, the code is certainly unsafe to use.

I tried to comment all the code on js, and it still starts to hang periodically. But, if you remove the js_filter directive, everything works fine.

I sinned that somewhere in the code could affect this. But, firstly, this action should only be performed in the PUT method, and the hang occurs in the GET method. Secondly, the entire code commented - it still hangs, that is, for me the contents of the js code did not affect the work

comment:6 by xeioex, 5 years ago

I am using the following nginx/njs configuration. Cannot reproduce your issue.

http { 
    js_include http.njs;
    server {
        listen 8080;
        location /trac1735 {
            js_content trac1735;
        }
    }
}

#http.njs:
function trac1735(r) {
    r.return(200, "x".repeat(2**20));
}

stream {
    server {
        listen      127.0.0.1:10000;                                                                                             
        js_filter   empty_filter;                                                                                                
        proxy_pass  127.0.0.1:8080;                                                                                              
    }

That is, it looks like sending to the client blocked:

2019/03/02 18:54:37 [debug] 19845#19845: *29 epoll add event: fd:12 op:3 ev:80002005

As can be seen from ev:80002005, nginx added events for both reading and writing. Unfortunately there are no main-level debug logs, so it is not clear what happens on the event level, but clearly js filter is called at least once after this, likely due to a write event reported by kernel:

2019/03/02 18:54:37 [debug] 19845#19845: *29 event timer: 12, old: 111514607, new: 111514611

It looks like ngx_stream_js_body_filter() fails to call next filter if there are no output data, and as a result data buffered in the stream write filter will not be flushed in such situation, leading to connection hang and an eventual timeout. Looks like a bug in ngx_stream_js_body_filter(), it should call next filter even if called with NULL input chain and/or resulting output chain is empty.

It looks like the problem was introduced in this njs commit:
