Log timeouts to access log

Server NGINX
#1

Hi
I would like to log an indication of weather a request ended because of
a client timeout - in the access.log

e.g.

log_format normal '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] ’
'"$request" $status $bytes_sent ’ ‘"$http_referer" “$http_user_agent”
“$client_send_timed_out”’;
where $client_send_timed_out would be a true/false or an 0/1 etc

Is there anything in there that would allow me to log that?

Many thanks
Richard

Closest to what you ask about I can think of is the
$request_completion variable. Though it marks not only timeouts
but whether a request was completely served or not.

thanks that might be what I need (as long as I ignore mp4/flv seeking
requests)
