Re: Warning "Revalidation failed" and TCP_REFRESH_UNMODIFIED/200

Thanks Amos,
The thing is that the server replied with 304 and not 5xx.
"Revalidation failed" was added to the replay header even if not
reciving the 5xx response.

Looking at the code 3.2.0.10 it seems to be the same for the warning:

// add Warnings required by RFC 2616 if serving a stale hit
if (http->request->flags.stale_if_hit && logTypeIsATcpHit(http->logType)) {
    hdr->putWarning(110, "Response is stale");
    if (http->request->flags.need_validation)
    hdr->putWarning(111, "Revalidation failed");
}

http->request->flags.need_validation is set to 1 in
clientReplyContext::cacheHit()

Just to be sure: we are not supposing to see the [Warning: 111
squid/3.2.0.5 "Revalidation failed"] if we got 304 replay from the
server correct (regradless to the etags)?
