Fix crashing http server when callback do not reply in place General http callback looks like: static void http_cb(struct evhttp_request *req, void *arg) { evhttp_send_reply(req, HTTP_OK, "Everything is fine", NULL); } And they will work fine becuase in this case http will write request first, and during write preparation it will disable *read callback* (in evhttp_write_buffer()), but if we don't reply immediately, for example: static void http_cb(struct evhttp_request *req, void *arg) { return; } This will leave connection in incorrect state, and if another request will be written to the same connection libevent will abort with: [err] ../http.c: illegal connection state 7 Because it thinks that read for now is not possible, since there were no write. Fix this by disabling EV_READ entirely. We couldn't just reset callbacks because this will leave EOF detection, which we don't need, since user hasn't replied to callback yet.
