php - Avoid requests that take much time Apache -


i programm class validates data browsers , 1 of methods validates length of strings, came mind: if sends big string 2 millions of characters or more (or whatever) ?

if use strlen() count bytes, count last bytes. waste count bytes.

after thinking while, made this:

   class validator     {      static public function verify_str_length($str, $min, $max)      {           $i;        $counter = $min;        $msg = "";       // looling until null char found       //        for($i=$min-1;$i<$max;$i++) {           if(!isset($str[$i])) {             if($i == ($min -1)) {                 // if first iteration                 // find null char early.                 // $i starts minimum length allowed, string                 // length lower short                 $msg = 'too short string';                 return -1;             }              return 0;          }        }        if(isset($str[$i])) {          // if reach max , keep without finding null char          // string length higher $max           $msg = 'too long string';            return 1;       }        return 0;        }       //     /*  others methods           ..... */    }

note not need number of characters in string, if higher $min , lower $max. discard others chars.

my question is: idea instead of using strlen() ?

is there way configurate apache stop execution if server takes more x seconds in processing request ?

or can use both options?

thanks in advance!

you can use php's post_max_size directive limit amount of content submitted. careful setting because if have file uploads, have fit within size well.

http://php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.post-max-size

to limit amount of time spent parsing input data, may use max_input_time.

http://php.net/manual/en/info.configuration.php#ini.max-input-time

to limit execution time, use max_execution_time.

http://php.net/manual/en/info.configuration.php#ini.max-execution-time

you may set these in .htaccess, so:

php_value post_max_size 1m php_value max_execution_time 30 php_value max_input_time 5

for validation, should use php's filter functions, example:

$content = filter_input( input_post, 'content', filter_validate_regexp, [ 'options' => ['regexp' => '/^[\w-]{1,64}$/']] );

this ensure if $_post['content'] not composed of letters, digits, underscores or hyphens, , not between 1 , 64 characters long, not accepted.

Is there a better way to structure post methods in Class Based Views -

i'm using class based views in django , never specify url in ajax calls , omit action parameter in form because know these requests go through post method of class based view. notice view - profile page make many requests depending on user updating on page - post method become convoluted , if/else mess example: def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): # handle user changing available date if request.post.get('availabledate') != none: self.updateavailabledate(request) return jsonresponse({'result':'success'}) if request.post.get('newprojectname') != none: creative_user = creativeuserprofile.objects.get(id = request.user.id) project = project.create_project(creative_user, request.post['newprojectname']) project.save() return jsonresponse({'projectid': project.id }) if request.post.get('projectimage') != none , request.files['file']: proj

performance - Why is XCHG reg, reg a 3 micro-op instruction on modern Intel architectures? -

i'm doing micro-optimization on performance critical part of code , came across sequence of instructions (in at&t syntax): add %rax, %rbx mov %rdx, %rax mov %rbx, %rdx i thought had use case xchg allow me shave instruction , write: add %rbx, %rax xchg %rax, %rdx however, dimay found agner fog's instruction tables , xchg 3 micro-op instruction 2 cycle latency on sandy bridge, ivy bridge, broadwell, haswell , skylake. 3 whole micro-ops , 2 cycles of latency! 3 micro-ops throws off 4-1-1-1 cadence , 2 cycle latency makes worse original in best case since last 2 instructions in original might execute in parallel. now... cpu might breaking instruction micro-ops equivalent to: mov %rax, %tmp mov %rdx, %rax mov %tmp, %rdx where tmp anonymous internal register , suppose last 2 micro-ops run in parallel latency 2 cycles. given register renaming occurs on these micro-architectures, though, doesn't make sense me done way. why wouldn't register renamer

jquery - Responsive Navbar with Sub Navbar -

good day, forgive me nav vocabulary not best. if question confusing apologize. i'm working on navigation bar needs centered on page @ 768px , above. items in nav open (or perhaps toggle) subnav lives directly below. these nav should appear centered on page. i have been able work through responsive portion of nav bar, having main items align vertically , sub nav menu of each item roll out below, , gave them indent separation. working well. however, issue not responsive side, behavior @ width greater 768px. happens toggling menu's sub navigation pushes other main items down page below sub nav. here's code: $(document).ready(function () { //stick in fixed 100% height behind navbar don't wrap $('#slide-nav.navbar-inverse').after($('<div class="inverse" id="navbar-height-col"></div>')); $('#slide-nav.navbar-default').after($('<div id="navbar-height-col"></d
