Fix bug with Raw Server causing AHC tests to fail on Linux#128
Conversation
The Raw Server handler would `return` every time it received a non-head portion of the request. Unfortunately, every request has a `.end` portion in addition to the `.head` portion, meaning that the server would be tearing down the connection after one response despite not including `Connection: close`. To fix this, allow the connection to handle multiple requests by making this a `continue` instead of a `return`.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Makes sense to me.

Motivation
The Raw Server handler would
returnevery time it received a non-head portion of the request. Unfortunately, every request has a.endportion in addition to the.headportion, meaning that the server would be tearing down the connection after one response despite not includingConnection: closein the headers, which confuses the client trying to reuse the connection.This caused AHC tests in Linux to flakily fail, as observed in #127
Modifications
To fix this, allow the raw server to handle multiple requests on the same connection by continuing past the
.endportion of a request instead of returning.Result
The AHC tests on Linux are not flaky anymore. Tested on docker container running 204 + 304 tests back to back 100+ times.
Test Plan
N/A. This fixes a test.
