This allows one to simply run `./configure` and expect it to produce sane defaults for an install.
Previously, without specifying `--prefix=...`, `make install` would simply fail, recommending to set `--prefix` or `DESTDIR`, but that recommendation was incomplete at best, since it didn't set many of the subdirs needed for a good organization.
Setting `DESTDIR` was even worse, since that shouldn't even affect an installation (it is required to be transparent to the installation).
/usr/local is the historic Unix standard path to use for installations from source made manually by the admin of the system. Some package managers (Homebrew, I'm looking specifically at you) have abused that path to install their things, but 1) it's not our fault that someone else incorrectly abuses that path (and they seem to be fixing it for newer archs; e.g., they started using /opt/homebrew for Apple Silicon), 2) there's no better path than /usr/local, 3) we still allow changing it for systems where this might not be the desired path (MacOS Intel with hombrew), and 4) it's _the standard_.

Directory variables should never contain a trailing slash (I've learned that the hard way, where some things would break unexpectedly). Especially, make(1) is likely to have problems when things have double slashes or a trailing slash, since it treats filenames as text strings. I've removed the trailing slash from the prefix, and added it to the derivate variables just after the prefix. pkg-config(1) also expects directory variables to have no trailing slash.
===
I also removed the code that would set variables as depending on the prefix if they didn't start with a slash, because that is a rather non-obvious behavior, and things should not always depend on prefix, but other dirs such as $(runstatedir), so if we keep a similar behavior it would be very unreliable. Better keep variables intact if set, or use the default if unset.
===
Print the real defaults for ./configure --help, rather than the actual values.
===
I used a subdirectory under the standard /var/lib for NXT_STATE, instead of a homemade "state" dir that does the same thing.
===
Modified the Makefile to create some dirs that weren't being created, and also remove those that weren't being removed in uninstall, probably because someone forgot to add them.
===
Add new options for setting the new variables, and rename some to be consistent with the standard names. Keep the old ones at configuration time for compatibility, but mark them as deprecated. Don't keep the old ones at exec time.

Directory variables should never contain a trailing slash (I've learned that the hard way, where some things would break unexpectedly). Especially, make(1) is likely to have problems when things have double slashes or a trailing slash, since it treats filenames as text strings. I've removed the trailing slash from the prefix, and added it to the derivate variables just after the prefix. pkg-config(1) also expects directory variables to have no trailing slash.
===
I also removed the code that would set variables as depending on the prefix if they didn't start with a slash, because that is a rather non-obvious behavior, and things should not always depend on prefix, but other dirs such as $(runstatedir), so if we keep a similar behavior it would be very unreliable. Better keep variables intact if set, or use the default if unset.

The setuid/setgid syscalls requires root capabilities but if the kernel supports unprivileged user namespace then the child process has the full set of capabilities in the new namespace, then we can allow setting "user" and "group" in such cases (this is a common security use case).

Some package managers (Homebrew, I'm looking specifically at you) have abused that path to install their things, but 1) it's not our fault that someone else incorrectly abuses that path (and they seem to be fixing it for newer archs; e.g., they started using /opt/homebrew for Apple Silicon), 2) there's no better path than /usr/local, 3) we still allow changing it for systems where this might not be the desired path (MacOS Intel with hombrew), and 4) it's _the standard_.

Directory variables should never contain a trailing slash (I've learned that the hard way, where some things would break unexpectedly). Especially, make(1) is likely to have problems when things have double slashes or a trailing slash, since it treats filenames as text strings. I've removed the trailing slash from the prefix, and added it to the derivate variables just after the prefix. pkg-config(1) also expects directory variables to have no trailing slash.
===
I also removed the code that would set variables as depending on the prefix if they didn't start with a slash, because that is a rather non-obvious behavior, and things should not always depend on prefix, but other dirs such as $(runstatedir), so if we keep a similar behavior it would be very unreliable. Better keep variables intact if set, or use the default if unset.
===
Print the real defaults for ./configure --help, rather than the actual values.
===
I used a subdirectory under the standard /var/lib for NXT_STATE, instead of a homemade "state" dir that does the same thing.
===
Modified the Makefile to create some dirs that weren't being created, and also remove those that weren't being removed in uninstall, probably because someone forgot to add them.
===
Add new options for setting the new variables, and rename some to be consistent with the standard names. Keep the old ones at configuration time for compatibility, but mark them as deprecated. Don't keep the old ones at exec time.

This allows one to simply run `./configure` and expect it to produce sane defaults for an install.
Previously, without specifying `--prefix=...`, `make install` would simply fail, recommending to set `--prefix` or `DESTDIR`, but that recommendation was incomplete at best, since it didn't set many of the subdirs needed for a good organization.

Directory variables should never contain a trailing slash (I've learned that the hard way, where some things would break unexpectedly). Especially, make(1) is likely to have problems when things have double slashes or a trailing slash, since it treats filenames as text strings. I've removed the trailing slash from the prefix, and added it to the derivate variables just after the prefix. pkg-config(1) also expects directory variables to have no trailing slash.
===
I also removed the code that would set variables as depending on the prefix if they didn't start with a slash, because that is a rather non-obvious behavior, and things should not always depend on prefix, but other dirs such as $(runstatedir), so if we keep a similar behavior it would be very unreliable. Better keep variables intact if set, or use the default if unset.
===
Print the real defaults for ./configure --help, rather than the actual values.

I used a subdirectory under the standard /var/lib for NXT_STATE, instead of a homemade "state" dir that does the same thing.
===
Modified the Makefile to create some dirs that weren't being created, and also remove those that weren't being removed in uninstall, probably because someone forgot to add them.

Add new options for setting the new variables, and rename some to be consistent with the standard names. Keep the old ones at configuration time for compatibility, but mark them as deprecated. Don't keep the old ones at exec time.

The process abstraction has changed to:

The prefork() occurs in the main process right before fork.
The file src/nxt_main_process.c is completely free of process specific logic.
The creation of a process now supports a PROCESS_CREATED state. The The setup() function of each process can set its state to either created or ready. If created, a MSG_PROCESS_CREATED is sent to main process, where external setup can be done (required for rootfs under container).
The core processes (discovery, controller and router) doesn't need external setup, then they all proceeds to their start() function straight away.
In the case of applications, the load of the module happens at the process setup() time and The module's init() function has changed to be the start() of the process.
The module API has changed to:
setup(task, process, conf) start(task, data)

Directory variables should never contain a trailing slash (I've learned that the hard way, where some things would break unexpectedly). Especially, make(1) is likely to have problems when things have double slashes or a trailing slash, since it treats filenames as text strings. I've removed the trailing slash from the prefix, and added it to the derivate variables just after the prefix. pkg-config(1) also expects directory variables to have no trailing slash.
===
I also removed the code that would set variables as depending on the prefix if they didn't start with a slash, because that is a rather non-obvious behavior, and things should not always depend on prefix, but other dirs such as $(runstatedir), so if we keep a similar behavior it would be very unreliable. Better keep variables intact if set, or use the default if unset.
===
Print the real defaults for ./configure --help, rather than the actual values.
===
I used a subdirectory under the standard /var/lib for NXT_STATE, instead of a homemade "state" dir that does the same thing.
===
Modified the Makefile to create some dirs that weren't being created, and also remove those that weren't being removed in uninstall, probably because someone forgot to add them.
===
Add new options for setting the new variables, and rename some to be consistent with the standard names. Keep the old ones at configuration time for compatibility, but mark them as deprecated. Don't keep the old ones at exec time.

Now the nxt_user_groups_get() function uses getgrouplist(3) when available (except MacOS, see below). For some platforms, getgrouplist() supports a method of probing how much groups the user has but the behavior is not consistent. The method used here consists of optimistically trying to get up to min(256, NGROUPS_MAX) groups; only if ngroups returned exceeds the original value, we do a second call. This method can block main's process if LDAP/NDIS+ is in use.
MacOS has getgrouplist(3) but it's buggy. It doesn't update ngroups if the value passed is smaller than the number of groups the user has. Some projects (like Go stdlib) call getgrouplist() in a loop, increasing ngroups until it exceeds the number of groups user belongs to or fail when a limit is reached. For performance reasons, this is to be avoided and MacOS is handled in the fallback implementation.
The fallback implementation is the old Unit approach. It saves main's user groups (getgroups(2)) and then calls initgroups(3) to load application's groups in main, then does a second getgroups(2) to store the gids and restore main's groups in the end. Because of initgroups(3)' call to setgroups(2), this method requires root capabilities. In the case of OSX, which has small NGROUPS_MAX by default (16), it's not possible to restore main's groups if it's large; if so, this method fallbacks again: user_cred gids aren't stored, and the worker process calls initgroups() itself and may block for some time if LDAP/NDIS+ is in use. diff 1297:f04b5f7d6137 Tue Nov 26 16:15:00 UTC 2019 Tiago Natel <t.nateldemoura@f5.com> Changed the group listing to run unprivileged when possible.

Directory variables should never contain a trailing slash (I've learned that the hard way, where some things would break unexpectedly). Especially, make(1) is likely to have problems when things have double slashes or a trailing slash, since it treats filenames as text strings. I've removed the trailing slash from the prefix, and added it to the derivate variables just after the prefix. pkg-config(1) also expects directory variables to have no trailing slash.
===
I also removed the code that would set variables as depending on the prefix if they didn't start with a slash, because that is a rather non-obvious behavior, and things should not always depend on prefix, but other dirs such as $(runstatedir), so if we keep a similar behavior it would be very unreliable. Better keep variables intact if set, or use the default if unset.
===
Print the real defaults for ./configure --help, rather than the actual values.
===
I used a subdirectory under the standard /var/lib for NXT_STATE, instead of a homemade "state" dir that does the same thing.
===
Modified the Makefile to create some dirs that weren't being created, and also remove those that weren't being removed in uninstall, probably because someone forgot to add them.
===
Add new options for setting the new variables, and rename some to be consistent with the standard names. Keep the old ones at configuration time for compatibility, but mark them as deprecated. Don't keep the old ones at exec time.

This allows one to simply run `./configure` and expect it to produce sane defaults for an install.
Previously, without specifying `--prefix=...`, `make install` would simply fail, recommending to set `--prefix` or `DESTDIR`, but that recommendation was incomplete at best, since it didn't set many of the subdirs needed for a good organization.

Directory variables should never contain a trailing slash (I've learned that the hard way, where some things would break unexpectedly). Especially, make(1) is likely to have problems when things have double slashes or a trailing slash, since it treats filenames as text strings. I've removed the trailing slash from the prefix, and added it to the derivate variables just after the prefix. pkg-config(1) also expects directory variables to have no trailing slash.
===
I also removed the code that would set variables as depending on the prefix if they didn't start with a slash, because that is a rather non-obvious behavior, and things should not always depend on prefix, but other dirs such as $(runstatedir), so if we keep a similar behavior it would be very unreliable. Better keep variables intact if set, or use the default if unset.

Previously, without specifying `--prefix=...`, `make install` would simply fail, recommending to set `--prefix` or `DESTDIR`, but that recommendation was incomplete at best, since it didn't set many of the subdirs needed for a good organization.
Setting `DESTDIR` was even worse, since that shouldn't even affect an installation (it is required to be transparent to the installation).

Directory variables should never contain a trailing slash (I've learned that the hard way, where some things would break unexpectedly). Especially, make(1) is likely to have problems when things have double slashes or a trailing slash, since it treats filenames as text strings. I've removed the trailing slash from the prefix, and added it to the derivate variables just after the prefix. pkg-config(1) also expects directory variables to have no trailing slash.
===
I also removed the code that would set variables as depending on the prefix if they didn't start with a slash, because that is a rather non-obvious behavior, and things should not always depend on prefix, but other dirs such as $(runstatedir), so if we keep a similar behavior it would be very unreliable. Better keep variables intact if set, or use the default if unset.
===
Print the real defaults for ./configure --help, rather than the actual values.
===
I used a subdirectory under the standard /var/lib for NXT_STATE, instead of a homemade "state" dir that does the same thing.
===
Modified the Makefile to create some dirs that weren't being created, and also remove those that weren't being removed in uninstall, probably because someone forgot to add them.
===
Add new options for setting the new variables, and rename some to be consistent with the standard names. Keep the old ones at configuration time for compatibility, but mark them as deprecated. Don't keep the old ones at exec time.

Directory variables should never contain a trailing slash (I've learned that the hard way, where some things would break unexpectedly). Especially, make(1) is likely to have problems when things have double slashes or a trailing slash, since it treats filenames as text strings. I've removed the trailing slash from the prefix, and added it to the derivate variables just after the prefix. pkg-config(1) also expects directory variables to have no trailing slash.
===
I also removed the code that would set variables as depending on the prefix if they didn't start with a slash, because that is a rather non-obvious behavior, and things should not always depend on prefix, but other dirs such as $(runstatedir), so if we keep a similar behavior it would be very unreliable. Better keep variables intact if set, or use the default if unset.
===
Print the real defaults for ./configure --help, rather than the actual values.

I used a subdirectory under the standard /var/lib for NXT_STATE, instead of a homemade "state" dir that does the same thing.
===
Modified the Makefile to create some dirs that weren't being created, and also remove those that weren't being removed in uninstall, probably because someone forgot to add them.
===
Add new options for setting the new variables, and rename some to be consistent with the standard names. Keep the old ones at configuration time for compatibility, but mark them as deprecated. Don't keep the old ones at exec time.

This fixes an issue addressed in 651f5a37f5b8 on FreeBSD 12.
The problem manifested itself as:
configuring Ruby module checking for -fdeclspec ... found checking for Ruby library ... not found checking for Ruby library in /usr/local/lib ... not found
./configure: error: no Ruby found. diff 1217:ed8c4e263152 Wed Oct 02 16:11:00 UTC 2019 Max Romanov <max.romanov@nginx.com> Fixed "make tests" build without preceding "make".
Currently almost all Unit object files depends on generated nxt_version.h. This patch adds missing dependence and fixes running make with multiple jobs.
This closes #318 issue on GitHub.
