When configured, it enables Multipath TCP support on a listen socket.
As of now it works on Linux starting with Linux 5.6 and glibc 2.32,
where it is enabled with an IPPROTO_MPTCP socket(2) protocol.
To avoid EADDRINUSE errors in bind() and listen() when transitioning
between sockets with different protocols, SO_REUSEPORT is set on both
sockets. See f7f1607bf for potential implications.
Based on previous work by Maxime Dourov and Anthony Doeraene.
Line continuation as used in the syntax file might be broken if "compatible"
is set or "C" is added to cpoptions. Fix is to set the "cpoptions" option
to vim default value at script start and restore it later, see
":help use-cpo-save".
Using default highlighting makes it possible to easily overrule
highlighting specified in the syntax file, see ":highlight-default"
in vim help for details.
Instead of highlighting directives in arbitrary positions, proper
parsing of nginx.conf syntax was implemented, matching what nginx does
internally. This allows vim to correctly highlight various complex cases,
including:
return 301 http://example.com/path#fragment";
and also avoids highlighting of parameters as directives, as in
server_name missing.semicolon.example.com
index index.php;
where "index" is not a directive but a parameter of the "server_name"
directive due to missing semicolon.
Most important downside of this approach seems to be that there is no
easy way to introduce directive-specific parameters. As such, only "listen"
directive parameters were preserved.
uwsgi is not a third-party module anymore. 'split_clients' is a new
block directive type. The directives were automatically extracted from
the ngx_command_t arrays, sorted in the C locale and inserted.
Trailing spaces got removed at some places.
I've been maintaining these scripts independently for a while now, even though
I'm no longer active in the community. Seems to me that contrib/ is a good
long-term home for the scripts.
