If you want to ensure that the client request body is not buffered to
disk, you want to make sure that your client_body_buffer_size is larger
than your client_max_body_size. And be willing to refuse any client
request body bigger than that.

http://nginx.org/r/client_max_body_size

Sets the maximum allowed size of the client request body. Setting size
to 0 disables client request body size checking.

http://nginx.org/r/proxy_max_temp_file_size

For responses from the proxied server.


Look at http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html

You probably want directives which start "client_body_".
