Extend --proxy-protocol to accept version values (off, v1, v2, auto) instead
of being boolean-only. This allows explicit control over which PROXY protocol
versions are accepted.
Changes:
- Add InvalidProxyHeader exception for v2 binary header errors
- Add validate_proxy_protocol() validator with backwards compatibility
- Update ProxyProtocol setting with nargs="?" and const="auto"
- Add PROXY v2 constants (PP_V2_SIGNATURE, PPCommand, PPFamily, PPProtocol)
- Add _parse_proxy_protocol_v1() and _parse_proxy_protocol_v2() methods
- Update both sync (message.py) and async (asgi/message.py) parsers
- Add hex escape handling in treq.py for v2 binary test data
- Add test cases for v2 TCPv4 and TCPv6
Backwards compatible: --proxy-protocol alone (or True) maps to "auto".
Closes#2912
Add a new ASGI worker type that provides native async support using
gunicorn's own HTTP parsing infrastructure adapted for asyncio.
Features:
- HTTP/1.1 with keepalive support
- WebSocket connections (RFC 6455)
- ASGI lifespan protocol for startup/shutdown hooks
- Optional uvloop support for improved performance
- Full proxy protocol support (inherited from gunicorn)
New configuration options:
- --asgi-loop: Event loop selection (auto/asyncio/uvloop)
- --asgi-lifespan: Lifespan protocol control (auto/on/off)
- --root-path: ASGI root path for reverse proxy setups
Usage: gunicorn -k asgi myapp:app
