         root /;
         try_files  home/www$uri www/html$uri  @ksphp;

but probably it's better to use:

  location = /asdf.php {
        fastcgi_pass  ...
        fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  /www/html$uri;
        ....
  }

Do not use "if ($request_filename":

location / {
    root /home/www;
    try_files $uri  @ksphp;

    index index.php;
    expires 30d;
}

location ~* \.(js|css)$ {
    return 404;
}
