Debian mod_http2 security patch enhances HTTP/2 management by optimizing code for increased efficiency and reliability.
Code cleanups and Simplifications: * in stream instance and main connection output handling for a common strategy in h2/h2c versions of the protocol

Summary

The mod_h2 Apache httpd module implements the HTTP2 protocol (h2+h2c) on

top of libnghttp2 for httpd 2.4 servers.

Code cleanups and Simplifications: * in stream instance and main connection

output handling for a common strategy in h2/h2c versions of the protocol. Stream

instances are kept in one place which will make future optimizations in state

handling easier. * Discarding idea of re-using bucket beams and let them live

for one request only. Removing design/implementation overhead of never used

features. Making mutexes nested, removing optional lock code no longer

necessary.

* Wed May 22 2019 Joe Orton - 1.15.0-1

- update to 1.15.0
