Ngx_parse_time not handling seconds flag properly?

Server NGINX
1

It looks to me like ngx_parse_time is scaling to seconds when you
don’t want it and not scaling when you do. When called from
ngx_conf_set_msec_slot, it scales all msec values up by a factor of
1000, so if I want a timeout of 180ms I actually get a timeout of
180s.

Can anyone comment on this.

Thanks,
Mike

nginx works internally with millisecond resolution.
So ngx_parse_time(…, 0) returns parsed time in milliseconds.
There are some places where seconds are enough, for these
ngx_parse_time(…, 1) returns parsed time in seconds.
