To allow reusing these blocks without consuming more memory, their list
should be static and share-able accross uses. The head of the list will
be shared as well.
It is thus necessary to extract the head of the rule list from the proxy
itself. Transform it into a pointer instead, that can be easily set to
an external dynamically allocated head.
Parse back-references in comments of tcp-check expect rules. If references are
made, capture groups in the match and replace references to it within the
comment when logging the error. Both text and binary regex can caputre groups
and reference them in the expect rule comment.
[Cf: I slightly updated the patch. exp_replace() function is used instead of a
custom one. And if the trash buffer is too small to contain the comment during
the substitution, the comment is ignored.]
The rbinary match works similarly to the rstring match type, however the
received data is rewritten as hex-string before the match operation is
done.
This allows using regexes on binary content even with the POSIX regex
engine.
[Cf: I slightly updated the patch. mem2hex function was removed and dump_binary
is used instead.]
Allow declaring tcpcheck connect commands with a new parameter,
"linger". This option will configure the connection to avoid using an
RST segment to close, instead following the four-way termination
handshake. Some servers would otherwise log each healthcheck as
an error.
Some expect rules cannot be satisfied due to inherent ambiguity towards
the received data: in the absence of match, the current behavior is to
be forced to wait either the end of the connection or a buffer full,
whichever comes first. Only then does the matching diagnostic is
considered conclusive. For instance :
tcp-check connect
tcp-check expect !rstring "^error"
tcp-check expect string "valid"
This check will only succeed if the connection is closed by the server before
the check timeout. Otherwise the first expect rule will wait for more data until
"^error" regex matches or the check expires.
Allow the user to explicitly define an amount of data that will be
considered enough to determine the value of the check.
This allows succeeding on negative rstring rules, as previously
in valid condition no match happened, and the matching was repeated
until the end of the connection. This could timeout the check
while no error was happening.
[Cf: I slighly updated the patch. The parameter was renamed and the value is a
signed integer to support -1 as default value to ignore the parameter.]
When receiving additional data while chaining multiple tcp-check expects,
previous inverse expects might have a different result with the new data. They
need to be evaluated again against the new data.
Add a pointer to the first inverse expect rule of the current expect chain
(possibly of length one) to each expect rule. When receiving new data, the
currently evaluated tcp-check rule is set back to this pointed rule.
Fonctionnaly speaking, it is a bug and it exists since the introduction of the
feature. But there is no way for now to hit it because when an expect rule does
not match, we wait for more data, independently on the inverse flag. The only
way to move to the following rule is to be sure no more data will be received.
This patch depends on the commit "MINOR: mini-clist: Add functions to iterate
backward on a list".
[Cf: I slightly updated the patch. First, it only concerns inverse expect
rule. Normal expect rules are not concerned. Then, I removed the BUG tag
because, for now, it is not possible to move to the following rule when the
current one does not match while more data can be received.]
Replace the generic integer with an enumerated list. This allows light
type check and helps debugging (seeing action = 2 in the struct is not
helpful).
This options is used to force a non-SSL connection to check a SSL server or to
invert a check-ssl option inherited from the default section. The use_ssl field
in the check structure is used to know if a SSL connection must be used
(use_ssl=1) or not (use_ssl=0). The server configuration is used by default.
The problem is that we cannot distinguish the default case (no specific SSL
check option) and the case of an explicit non-SSL check. In both, use_ssl is set
to 0. So the server configuration is always used. For a SSL server, when
no-check-ssl option is set, the check is still performed using a SSL
configuration.
To fix the bug, instead of a boolean value (0=TCP, 1=SSL), we use a ternary value :
* 0 = use server config
* 1 = force SSL
* -1 = force non-SSL
The same is done for the server parameter. It is not really necessary for
now. But it is a good way to know is the server no-ssl option is set.
In addition, the PR_O_TCPCHK_SSL proxy option is no longer used to set use_ssl
to 1 for a check. Instead the flag is directly tested to prepare or destroy the
server SSL context.
This patch should be backported as far as 1.8.
The 'http-check send' directive have been added to add headers and optionnaly a
payload to the request sent during HTTP healthchecks. The request line may be
customized by the "option httpchk" directive but there was not official way to
add extra headers. An old trick consisted to hide these headers at the end of
the version string, on the "option httpchk" line. And it was impossible to add
an extra payload with an "http-check expect" directive because of the
"Connection: close" header appended to the request (See issue #16 for details).
So to make things official and fully support payload additions, the "http-check
send" directive have been added :
option httpchk POST /status HTTP/1.1
http-check send hdr Content-Type "application/json;charset=UTF-8" \
hdr X-test-1 value1 hdr X-test-2 value2 \
body "{id: 1, field: \"value\"}"
When a payload is defined, the Content-Length header is automatically added. So
chunk-encoded requests are not supported yet. For now, there is no special
validity checks on the extra headers.
This patch is inspired by Kiran Gavali's work. It should fix the issue #16 and
as far as possible, it may be backported, at least as far as 1.8.
Server address and port may change at runtime. So the address and port passed as
arguments and as environment variables when an external check is executed must
be updated. The current number of connections on the server was already updated
before executing the command. So the same mechanism is used for the server
address and port. But in addition, command arguments are also updated.
This patch must be backported to all stable versions. It should fix the
issue #577.
If haproxy fails to start and emits an alert, then it can be useful
to have it also emit the version and the path used to load it. Some
users may be mistakenly launching the wrong binary due to a misconfigured
PATH variable and this will save them some troubleshooting time when it
reports that some keywords are not understood.
What we do here is that we *try* to extract the binary name from the
AUX vector on glibc, and we report this as a NOTICE tag before the
very first alert is emitted.
Since some systems switched to service managers which hide all warnings
by default, some users are not aware of some possibly important warnings
and get caught too late with errors that could have been detected earlier.
This patch adds a new global keyword, "zero-warning" and an equivalent
command-line option "-dW" to refuse to start in case any warning is
detected. It is recommended to use these with configurations that are
managed by humans in order to catch mistakes very early.
This helps quickly checking if the config produces any warning. For
this we reuse the "warned" bit field to add a new WARN_ANY bit that is
set by ha_warning(). The rest of the bit field was also cleaned from
unused bits.
In 'commit ssl cert', instead of trying to regenerate a list of filters
from the SNIs, use the list provided by the crtlist_entry used to
generate the ckch_inst.
This list of filters doesn't need to be free'd anymore since they are
always reused from the crtlist_entry.
The dump and show ssl crt-list commands does the same thing, they dump
the content of a crt-list, but the 'show' displays an ID in the first
column. Delete the 'dump' command so it is replaced by the 'show' one.
The old 'show' command is replaced by an '-n' option to dump the ID.
And the ID which was a pointer is replaced by a line number and placed
after colons in the filename.
Example:
$ echo "show ssl crt-list -n kikyo.crt-list" | socat /tmp/sock1 -
# kikyo.crt-list
kikyo.pem.rsa:1 secure.domain.tld
kikyo.pem.ecdsa:2 secure.domain.tld
When updating a ckch_store we may want to update its pointer in the
crtlist_entry which use it. To do this, we need the list of the entries
using the store.
The instances were wrongly inserted in the crtlist entries, all
instances of a crt-list were inserted in the last crt-list entry.
Which was kind of handy to free all instances upon error.
Now that it's done correctly, the error path was changed, it must
iterate on the entries and find the ckch_insts which were generated for
this bind_conf. To avoid wasting time, it stops the iteration once it
found the first unsuccessful generation.
In order to be able to add new certificate in a crt-list, we need the
list of bind_conf that uses this crt-list so we can create a ckch_inst
for each of them.
Add a counter to know the current number of used connections, as well as the
max, this will be used later to refine the algorithm used to kill idle
connections, based on current usage.
With server-template was introduced the possibility to scale the
number of servers in a backend without needing a configuration change
and associated reload. On the other hand it became impractical to
write use-server rules for these servers as they would only accept
existing server labels as argument. This patch allows the use of
log-format notation to describe targets of a use-server rules, such
as in the example below:
listen test
bind *:1234
use-server %[hdr(srv)] if { hdr(srv) -m found }
use-server s1 if { path / }
server s1 127.0.0.1:18080
server s2 127.0.0.1:18081
If a use-server rule is applied because it was conditionned by an
ACL returning true, but the target of the use-server rule cannot be
resolved, no other use-server rule is evaluated and we fall back to
load balancing.
This feature was requested on the ML, and bumped with issue #563.
In connect_server(), if we no longer have any idle connections for the
current thread, attempt to use the new "takeover" mux method to steal a
connection from another thread.
This should have no impact right now, given no mux implements it.
Make the "list" element a struct mt_list, and explicitely use
list_from_mt_list to get a struct list * where it is used as such, so that
mt_list_for_each_entry will be usable with it.
Add a new mux method, "takeover", that will attempt to make the current thread
responsible for the connection.
It should return 0 on success, and non-zero on failure.
Revamp the server connection lists. We know have 3 lists :
- idle_conns, which contains idling connections
- safe_conns, which contains idling connections that are safe to use even
for the first request
- available_conns, which contains connections that are not idling, but can
still accept new streams (those are HTTP/2 or fastcgi, and are always
considered safe).
Move the definition of WDTSIG and DEBUGSIG from wdt.c and debug.c into
types/signal.h, so that we can access them in another file.
We need those definition to avoid blocking those signals when running
__signal_process_queue().
This should be backported to 2.1, 2.0 and 1.9.
In the struct fdtab, introduce a new mask, running_mask. Each thread should
add its bit before using the fd.
Use the running_mask instead of a lock, in fd_insert/fd_delete, we'll just
spin as long as the mask is non-zero, to be sure we access the data
exclusively.
fd_set_running_excl() spins until the mask is 0, fd_set_running() just
adds the thread bit, and fd_clr_running() removes it.
The crtlist structure defines a crt-list in the HAProxy configuration.
It contains crtlist_entry structures which are the lines in a crt-list
file.
crt-list are now loaded in memory using crtlist and crtlist_entry
structures. The file is read only once. The generation algorithm changed
a little bit, new ckch instances are generated from the crtlist
structures, instead of being generated during the file loading.
The loading function was split in two, one that loads and caches the
crt-list and certificates, and one that looks for a crt-list and creates
the ckch instances.
Filters are also stored in crtlist_entry->filters as a char ** so we can
generate the sni_ctx again if needed. I won't be needed anymore to parse
the sni_ctx to do that.
A crtlist_entry stores the list of all ckch_inst that were generated
from this entry.
These are mostly comments in the code. A few error messages were fixed
and are of low enough importance not to deserve a backport. Some regtests
were also fixed.
This patch adds the `unique-id` option to `proxy-v2-options`. If this
option is set a unique ID will be generated based on the `unique-id-format`
while sending the proxy protocol v2 header and stored as the unique id for
the first stream of the connection.
This feature is meant to be used in `tcp` mode. It works on HTTP mode, but
might result in inconsistent unique IDs for the first request on a keep-alive
connection, because the unique ID for the first stream is generated earlier
than the others.
Now that we can send unique IDs in `tcp` mode the `%ID` log variable is made
available in TCP mode.
Remove the list of private connections from server, it has been largely
unused, we only inserted connections in it, but we would never actually
use it.
The stream-int code doesn't need to load server.h as it doesn't use
servers at all. However removing this one reveals that proxy.h was
lacking types/checks.h that used to be silently inherited from
types/server.h loaded before in stream_interface.h.
Since commit 244b070 ("MINOR: ssl/cli: support crt-list filters"),
HAProxy generates a list of filters based on the sni_ctx in memory.
However it's not always relevant, sometimes no filters were configured
and the CN/SAN in the new certificate are not the same.
This patch fixes the issue by using a flag filters in the ckch_inst, so
we are able to know if there were filters or not. In the late case it
uses the CN/SAN of the new certificate to generate the sni_ctx.
note: filters are still only used in the crt-list atm.
This reverts commit 1c306aa84d.
It breaks the build on all non-glibc platforms. I got confused by the
man page (which possibly is the most confusing man page I've ever read
about a standard libc function) and mistakenly understood that random_r
was portable, especially since it appears in latest freebsd source as
well but not in released versions, and with a slightly different API :-/
We need to find a different solution with a fallback. Among the
possibilities, we may reintroduce this one with a fallback relying on
locking around the standard functions, keeping fingers crossed for no
other library function to call them in parallel, or we may also provide
our own PRNG, which is not necessarily more difficult than working
around the totally broken up design of the portable API.
As mentioned in previous patch, the random number generator was never
made thread-safe, which used not to be a problem for health checks
spreading, until the uuid sample fetch function appeared. Currently
it is possible for two threads or processes to produce exactly the
same UUID. In fact it's extremely likely that this will happen for
processes, as can be seen with this config:
global
nbproc 8
frontend f
bind :4445
mode http
log stdout daemon format raw
log-format "%[uuid] %pid"
redirect location /
It typically produces this log:
551ce567-0bfb-4bbd-9b58-cdc7e9365325 30645
551ce567-0bfb-4bbd-9b58-cdc7e9365325 30641

What this patch does is to use a distinct per-thread and per-process
seed to make sure the same sequences will not appear, and will then
extend these seeds by "burning" a number of randoms that depends on
the global random seed, the thread ID and the process ID. This adds
roughly 20 extra bits of randomness, resulting in 52 bits total per
thread and per process.
It only takes a few milliseconds to burn these randoms and given
that threads start with a different seed, we know they will not
catch each other. So these random extra bits are essentially added
to ensure randomness between boots and cluster instances.
This replaces all uses of random() with ha_random() which uses the
thread-local state.
This must be backported as far as 2.0 or any version having the
UUID sample-fetch function since it's the main victim here.
It's important to note that this patch, in addition to depending on
the previous one "BUG/MEDIUM: init: initialize the random pool a bit
better", also depends on the preceeding build fixes to address a
circular dependency issue in the include files that prevented it
from building. Part or all of these patches may need to be backported
or adapted as well.
Since the UUID sample fetch was created, some people noticed that in
certain virtualized environments they manage to get exact same UUIDs
on different instances started exactly at the same moment. It turns
out that the randoms were only initialized to spread the health checks
originally, not to provide "clean" randoms.
This patch changes this and collects more randomness from various
sources, including existing randoms, /dev/urandom when available,
RAND_bytes() when OpenSSL is available, as well as the timing for such
operations, then applies a SHA1 on all this to keep a 160 bits random
seed available, 32 of which are passed to srandom().
It's worth mentioning that there's no clean way to pass more than 32
bits to srandom() as even initstate() provides an opaque state that
must absolutely not be tampered with since known implementations
contain state information.
At least this allows to have up to 4 billion different sequences
from the boot, which is not that bad.
Note that the thread safety was still not addressed, which is another
issue for another patch.
This must be backported to all versions containing the UUID sample
fetch function, i.e. as far as 2.0.
