Some of the tv_* functions are called very often. Passing their
arguments as registers is quite faster. This can be disabled
by setting CONFIG_HAP_DISABLE_REGPARM.
As suggested by Markus Elfring, a few "const char *" have replaced
some "char *" declarations where a function is not expected to
modify a value. It does not change the code but it helps detecting
coding errors.
- started the changes towards I/O completion callbacks. stream_sock* have
replaced event_*.
- added the new "reqtarpit" and "reqitarpit" protection features
It is now possible to tarpit connections based on regex matches.
The tarpit timeout is equal to the contimeout. A 500 server error
response is faked, and the logs show the status flags as "PT" which
indicate the connection has been tarpitted.
The timeouts, expiration timers and results are now stored in the buffers.
The timers will have to change a bit to become more flexible, and when the
I/O completion functions will be written, the connect_complete() will have
to be extracted from the write() function.
Released 1.3.1 with the following changes from 1.2.15 :
- now, haproxy warns about missing timeout during startup to try to
eliminate all those buggy configurations.
- added "Content-Type: text/html" in responses wherever appropriate, as
suggested by Cameron Simpson.
- implemented "option ssl-hello-chk" to use SSLv3 CLIENT HELLO messages to
test server's health
- implemented "monitor-uri" so that haproxy can reply to a specific URI with
an "HTTP/1.0 200 OK" response. This is useful to validate multiple proxies
at once.
This makes it possible to relay SSL connections in pure TCP instances while
ensuring the remote end really receives our data eventhough intermediate
agents (firewalls, proxies, ...) might acknowledge the connection.
The files are now stored under :
- include/haproxy for the generic includes
- include/types.h for the structures needed within prototypes
- include/proto.h for function prototypes and inline functions
- src/*.c for the C files
Most include files are now covered by LGPL. A last move still needs
to be done to put inline functions under GPL and not LGPL.
Version has been set to 1.3.0 in the code but some control still
needs to be done before releasing.
It has been rewritten and now supports an initialization state. It now also
prevents from dumping stopped(disabled) listeners and it is possible to
specify a scope with a list of proxies that are allowed to be dumped from
the one being configured ('.' meaning "this one"). The 'stats' entry can
be configured from the 'defaults' instance and it is correctly flushed
from proxies which redefine it.
Right now it only validates the user/passwd according to a specified list,
and lets the user pass through the proxy if the authentication is OK, and
it refuses any invalid access with a 401 Unauthorized response.
* made epoll() support a compile-time option : ENABLE_EPOLL
* provided a very little libc replacement for a possibly missing epoll()
implementation which can be enabled by -DUSE_MY_EPOLL
* implemented the poll() poller, which can be enabled with -DENABLE_POLL.
The equivalent runtime argument becomes '-P'. A few tests show that it
performs like select() with many fds, but slightly slower (certainly
because of the higher amount of memory involved).
* separated the 3 polling methods and the tasks scheduler into 4 distinct
functions which makes the code a lot more modular.
* moved some event tables to private static declarations inside the poller
functions.
* the poller functions can now initialize themselves, run, and cleanup.
* changed the runtime argument to enable epoll() to '-E'.
* removed buggy epoll_ctl() code in the client_retnclose() function. This
function was never meant to remove anything.
* fixed a typo which caused glibc to yell about a double free on exit.
* removed error checking after epoll_ctl(DEL) because we can never know if
the fd is still active or already closed.
* added a few entries in the makefile
* merged Alexander Lazic's and Klaus Wagner's work on application
cookie-based persistence. Since this is the first merge, this version is
not intended for general use and reports are more than welcome. Some
documentation is really needed though.
