Hi,

I have a module that registers a handler to run in
NGX_HTTP_PREACCESS_PHASE. The handler adds headers to
request->headers_in.headers. This works as I would expect most of the
time. But I am seeing cases of some crashes when calling

ngx_list_push(&request->headers_in.headers));

Are there any restrictions where you are not allowed to push to
headers_in.headers like that in the preaccess phase?

This is the line that where the segfault is reported as happening:
https://github.com/opentracing-contrib/nginx-opentracing/blob/master/opentracing/src/inject_span_context.cpp#L23

And the backtrace (taken from
https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/issues/2222#issue-306992059):
