Description:
------------
When the server is overloaded, you cant query the FPM status page, however it should be its primary goal: being able to check whats going on. This way this cool feature is pointless.


Test script:
---------------
fpm conf:
pm = dynamic
pm.max_children = 1
pm.start_servers = 1
pm.min_spare_servers = 1
pm.max_spare_servers = 1

test script:
<?
sleep(60);
?>

And while the only worker process is sleeping, send a query to the status page. It wont be served.

Expected result:
----------------
Status page.

Actual result:
--------------
Hanging

for security reason and by design it's not possible to make the master process to 
listen to those requests.

The only possibility is to fork another process only to handle this. And this is 
quite a a big change. It's on my todo list but no ETA yet.

The following patch has been added/updated:

Patch Name: bug60891-v1.patch
Revision:   1338246496

Here is the first revision of the patch (it needs some verifications and there should be some missing free(), but it works 
on my side). It can be applied on the last 5.3 snapshot (not sure it will applies correctly on older version/revision).

Here's what's new:
- new FPM configuration item for pool: pm.status_allow which is unset by default. Add the names of the other pool you want 
to access from this pool (use a comma (,) as a separator). If one of the element is the char '*', then all pool are 
available from this pool status page

- call the status page of this pool adding a pool=xxx in the query string and there it's supposed to work


Exemple: for having a dedicated pool which only respond to the /status page and permit to see all pools status : add the 
following pool to your php-fpm.conf

[status]
listen=/tmp/status.sock
user = nobody ;use a low privilege user, nothing is needed here
group = nogroup
pm = ondemand
pm.max_children = 1 ;set a higher value if you need parallal requesting to the status page
pm.status_path = /status
pm.status_allow = * ; allow to see all pool status
chroot = /var/empty ; chroot to un empty directory for security reason
security.limit_extensions = .nonexistantextesionxxxxx ; limit to only one neverused extension

it'll only respond to the /status page (because of the pseudo random security.limit_extensions) and it's possible to see all 
pool status page:

http://xxx/status?pool=pool1
http://xxx/status?pool=pool2&full
http://xxx/status?pool=pool3&json&full

Waiting to here from you on this.

Sounds good! I'm looking forward to these features.

> ... and there should be some missing free()
This means there is a memory-leak right?

Hello,
any news about pm.status_allow = *   patch ?

I'm really looking for this, monitoring status in one page (integration with 
nagios/cacti).

Regards,

Alexandre Derumier
