Apache Module mod_dbd

Описание:Manages SQL database connections
Статус:Extension
Идентификатор модуля:dbd_module
Исходный файл:mod_dbd.c
Совместимость:Version 2.1 and later

Summary

mod_dbd manages SQL database connections using APR. It provides database connections on request to modules requiring SQL database functions, and takes care of managing databases with optimal efficiency and scalability for both threaded and non-threaded MPMs. For details, see the APR website and this overview of the Apache DBD Framework by its original developer.

Connection Pooling

This module manages database connections, in a manner optimised for the platform. On non-threaded platforms, it provides a persistent connection in the manner of classic LAMP (Linux, Apache, Mysql, Perl/PHP/Python). On threaded platform, it provides an altogether more scalable and efficient connection pool, as described in this article at ApacheTutor. Note that mod_dbd supersedes the modules presented in that article.

Apache DBD API

mod_dbd exports five functions for other modules to use. The API is as follows:

typedef struct {
    apr_dbd_t *handle;
    apr_dbd_driver_t *driver;
    apr_hash_t *prepared;
} ap_dbd_t;

/* Export functions to access the database */

/* acquire a connection that MUST be explicitly closed.
 * Returns NULL on error
 */
AP_DECLARE(ap_dbd_t*) ap_dbd_open(apr_pool_t*, server_rec*);

/* release a connection acquired with ap_dbd_open */
AP_DECLARE(void) ap_dbd_close(server_rec*, ap_dbd_t*);

/* acquire a connection that will have the lifetime of a request
 * and MUST NOT be explicitly closed.  Return NULL on error.
 * This is the preferred function for most applications.
 */
AP_DECLARE(ap_dbd_t*) ap_dbd_acquire(request_rec*);

/* acquire a connection that will have the lifetime of a connection
 * and MUST NOT be explicitly closed.  Return NULL on error.
 */
AP_DECLARE(ap_dbd_t*) ap_dbd_cacquire(request_rec*);

/* Prepare a statement for use by a client module */
AP_DECLARE(void) ap_dbd_prepare(server_rec*, const char*, const char*);

/* Also export them as optional functions for modules that prefer it */
APR_DECLARE_OPTIONAL_FN(ap_dbd_t*, ap_dbd_open, (apr_pool_t*, server_rec*));
APR_DECLARE_OPTIONAL_FN(void, ap_dbd_close, (server_rec*, ap_dbd_t*));
APR_DECLARE_OPTIONAL_FN(ap_dbd_t*, ap_dbd_acquire, (request_rec*));
APR_DECLARE_OPTIONAL_FN(ap_dbd_t*, ap_dbd_cacquire, (conn_rec*));
APR_DECLARE_OPTIONAL_FN(void, ap_dbd_prepare, (server_rec*, const char*, const char*));

SQL Prepared Statements

mod_dbd supports SQL prepared statements on behalf of modules that may wish to use them. Each prepared statement must be assigned a name (label), and they are stored in a hash: the prepared field of an ap_dbd_t. Hash entries are of type apr_dbd_prepared_t and can be used in any of the apr_dbd prepared statement SQL query or select commands.

It is up to dbd user modules to use the prepared statements and document what statements can be specified in httpd.conf, or to provide their own directives and use ap_dbd_prepare.

SECURITY WARNING

Any web/database application needs to secure itself against SQL injection attacks. In most cases, Apache DBD is safe, because applications use prepared statements, and untrusted inputs are only ever used as data. Of course, if you use it via third-party modules, you should ascertain what precautions they may require.

However, the FreeTDS driver is inherently unsafe. The underlying library doesn't support prepared statements, so the driver emulates them, and the untrusted input is merged into the SQL statement.

It can be made safe by untainting all inputs: a process inspired by Perl's taint checking. Each input is matched against a regexp, and only the match is used, according to the Perl idiom:

  $untrusted =~ /([a-z]+)/;
  $trusted = $1;

To use this, the untainting regexps must be included in the prepared statements configured. The regexp follows immediately after the % in the prepared statement, and is enclosed in curly brackets {}. For example, if your application expects alphanumeric input, you can use:

"SELECT foo FROM bar WHERE input = %s"

with other drivers, and suffer nothing worse than a failed query. But with FreeTDS you'd need:

"SELECT foo FROM bar WHERE input = %{([A-Za-z0-9]+)}s"

Now anything that doesn't match the regexp's $1 match is discarded, so the statement is safe.

An alternative to this may be the third-party ODBC driver, which offers the security of genuine prepared statements.

DBDExptime Директива

Описание:Keepalive time for idle connections
Синтаксис:DBDExptime time-in-seconds
По умолчанию:DBDExptime 300
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Extension
Модуль:mod_dbd

Set the time to keep idle connections alive when the number of connections specified in DBDKeep has been exceeded (threaded platforms only).

top

DBDKeep Директива

Описание:Maximum sustained number of connections
Синтаксис:DBDKeep number
По умолчанию:DBDKeep 2
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Extension
Модуль:mod_dbd

Set the maximum number of connections per process to be sustained, other than for handling peak demand (threaded platforms only).

top

DBDMax Директива

Описание:Maximum number of connections
Синтаксис:DBDMax number
По умолчанию:DBDMax 10
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Extension
Модуль:mod_dbd

Set the hard maximum number of connections per process (threaded platforms only).

top

DBDMin Директива

Описание:Minimum number of connections
Синтаксис:DBDMin number
По умолчанию:DBDMin 1
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Extension
Модуль:mod_dbd

Set the minimum number of connections per process (threaded platforms only).

DBDParams Директива

Описание:Parameters for database connection
Синтаксис:DBDParams param1=value1[,param2=value2]
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Extension
Модуль:mod_dbd

As required by the underlying driver. Typically this will be used to pass whatever cannot be defaulted amongst username, password, database name, hostname and port number for connection.

Connection string parameters for current drivers include:

FreeTDS (for MSSQL and SyBase - see SECURITY note)
username, password, appname, dbname, host, charset, lang, server
MySQL
host, port, user, pass, dbname, sock, flags, fldsz, group, reconnect
ODBC
datasource, user, password, connect, ctimeout, stimeout, access, txmode, bufsize
Oracle
user, pass, dbname, server
PostgreSQL
The connection string is passed straight through to PQconnectdb
SQLite2
The connection string is split on a colon, and part1:part2 is used as sqlite_open(part1, atoi(part2), NULL)
SQLite3
The connection string is passed straight through to sqlite3_open

DBDPersist Директива

Описание:Whether to use persistent connections
Синтаксис:DBDPersist On|Off
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Extension
Модуль:mod_dbd

If set to Off, persistent and pooled connections are disabled. A new database connection is opened when requested by a client, and closed immediately on release. This option is for debugging and low-usage servers.

The default is to enable a pool of persistent connections (or a single LAMP-style persistent connection in the case of a non-threaded server), and should almost always be used in operation.

Prior to version 2.2.2, this directive accepted only the values 0 and 1 instead of Off and On, respectively.

DBDPrepareSQL Директива

Описание:Define an SQL prepared statement
Синтаксис:DBDPrepareSQL "SQL statement" label
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Extension
Модуль:mod_dbd

For modules such as authentication that repeatedly use a single SQL statement, optimum performance is achieved by preparing the statement at startup rather than every time it is used. This directive prepares an SQL statement and assigns it a label.

DBDriver Директива

Описание:Specify an SQL driver
Синтаксис:DBDriver name
Контекст:server config, virtual host
Статус:Extension
Модуль:mod_dbd

Selects an apr_dbd driver by name. The driver must be installed on your system (on most systems, it will be a shared object or dll). For example, DBDriver mysql will select the MySQL driver in apr_dbd_mysql.so.
