Description
When nginx is used to reverse proxy requests for php pages to lighttpd, some
requests stall having only served 3316 bytes.

Try a simple config like:
server {
listen 8001;
location / {
proxy_set_header Host www.airwarriors.com;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://www.airwarriors.com:81;
proxy_redirect http://www.airwarriors.com:81/ http://www.airwarriors.com/;
}
}
Then try to grab http://localhost:8001/forum/AWVB3admincp/index.php
Only get 3316 bytes (should be 7674).
When I switch nginx to use select instead of kqueue, it works fine.

I have some problems between nginx and backends too.
Nginx can not see when the backend closed connection.
The nginx developers said there is a kqueue problem: kqueue does not set EV_EOF
flag. They has made test program (attached), which works well under the FreeBSD
and NetBSD, but do not work properly under DragonFly.
Using "select" or "poll" methods in the nginx solves the problem, but kqueue is
preferred.
$ uname -iprs
DragonFly 2.10-RELEASE x86_64 X86_64_GENERIC_SMP

Well, I think we could handle the problem in kernel in the following way:
- Add EV_NODATA flag
- In the places that sets EV_NODATA, we also set the EV_EOF using the
logic before 8c4ed4265ed709e0ff2e164b292fd6b3febef5d3
- In the places that test EV_EOF, we change it to test EV_NODATA
- In the places that clears EV_EOF, we also clears EV_NODATA

Please test the latest master:

should have been fixed, at least the test-kqueue.c runs properly.

I have not an "master" installed anywhere. I will set it up in the VirtualBox
this evening, then can test.
Is it possible to made the patch for 2.10? Or git' patch may be used for the
2.10?

You probably could cherry-pick in the following order:
