Summary: Review Request: perl-CGI-SpeedyCGI - Speed up perl scripts by running them persistently Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: low Priority: low Component: Package Review AssignedTo: nobody@fedoraproject.org ReportedBy: redhat-bugzilla@linuxnetz.de QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: fedora-package- review@redhat.com,jorton@redhat.com,notting@redhat.com
Spec URL: http://labs.linuxnetz.de/bugzilla/perl-CGI-SpeedyCGI.spec SRPM URL: http://labs.linuxnetz.de/bugzilla/perl-CGI-SpeedyCGI-2.22-1.src.rpm Description: Speed up perl scripts by running them persistently SpeedyCGI is a way to run perl scripts persistently, which can make them run much more quickly. After the script is initially run, instead of exiting, the perl interpreter is kept running. During subsequent runs, this interpreter is used to handle new executions instead of starting a new perl interpreter each time. It is a very fast frontend program, written in C, is executed for each request.
Maybe Joe can have a look to my Apache specific patch, you're much more close to Apache hacking and I don't use the Apache part of perl-CGI-SpeedyCGI...

------- Additional Comments From tibbs@math.uh.edu 2008-01-24 21:18 EST ------- I can review the packaging here, but I'm not qualified to evaluate the patch for apache 2.2. However, I do note that it has a few hunks fewer than the one in the upstream bug tracker: http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=23920
Perhaps you could evaluate the additional apr_filepath_name_get changes there.

------- Additional Comments From redhat-bugzilla@linuxnetz.de 2008-01-25 02:16 EST ------- That's why I'm trying to move the Apache patch review to Joe. Yesterday I noticed, that PLD Linux has (more or less) the same patch as I wrote - they are using while, I'm using foreach. But that patch thing shouldn't hold up the review itself, shouldn't it?

------- Additional Comments From jorton@redhat.com 2008-01-25 10:40 EST ------- The patch will compile and work. mod_speedycgi2.c is a rather stale fork of upstream mod_cgi.c and lacks the improvements and bug fixes from over a couple of years.
w.r.t to code changed in the patch itself, the second loop is OK, but the discard_script_output loop is sub-optimal, it should look something like this: (untested)
while ((e = APR_BRIGADE_FIRST(bb)) != APR_BRIGADE_SENTINEL(bb)) { if (APR_BUCKET_IS_EOS(e)) { break; }
rv = apr_bucket_read(e, &buf, &len, APR_BLOCK_READ); if (rv != APR_SUCCESS) { break; }
apr_bucket_delete(e); }

------- Additional Comments From tibbs@math.uh.edu 2008-01-26 13:29 EST ------- I'll completely sidestep the issue of that patch. However, a check of the licensing reveals something that troubles me. The following file starts with the usual GPL license block and then says "/* Based on apache's mod_cgi.c */" and goes on to quote what I think is the 1.0 Apache license: http://search.cpan.org/src/HORROCKS/CGI-SpeedyCGI-2.22/src/mod_speedycgi.c
My understanding is that it is not remotely kosher to relicense ASL code (any version) as GPLv2. Maybe v3, but I'm no expert. Blocking FE-Legal so someone who understands this can take a look. However, I've already done most of this review so I'll go ahead and finish it up and if the legal folks say it's OK then at least the work won't be wasted.
rpmlint says: mod_speedycgi.x86_64: W: no-documentation which is OK. However, becase this requires the end user to make modification to the installed .conf file, could you add a README.Fedora file indicating what the user needs to do to make things work?

------- Additional Comments From tcallawa@redhat.com 2008-02-18 16:10 EST ------- The only way this code is kosher is if we leverage the + in the license to make it GPLv3, since GPLv2 is incompatible with ASL 1.0.
Please contact upstream and let them know about this issue, and urge them to either use GPLv3+ or relicense to avoid the issue.
For the here and now, mark the license tag as "GPLv3+". Lifting FE-Legal.

------- Additional Comments From tibbs@math.uh.edu 2008-02-21 16:09 EST ------- I really thought I had sent a reply to this ticket.
Anyway, if you agree to the change of the license tag, just say so and I'll be happy to approve this package. Or if you'd prefer to hear back from upstream first, just say so and we'll wait.
