It really belongs to proto_http.c since it's a dump for HTTP request
and response errors. Note that it's possible that some parts do not
need to be exported anymore since it really is the only place where
errors are manipulated.
The table dump code was a horrible mess, with common parts interleaved
all the way to deal with the various actions (set/clear/show). A few
error messages were still incorrect, as the "set" operation did not
update them so they would still report "unknown action" (now fixed).
The action was now passed as a private argument to the CLI keyword
which itself is copied into the appctx private field. It's just an
int cast to a pointer.
Some minor issues were noticed while doing this, for example when dumping
an entry by key, if the key doesn't exist, nothing is printed, not even
the table's header. It's unclear whether this was intentional but it
doesn't really match what is done for data-based dumps. It was left
unchanged for now so that a later fix can be backported if needed.
Enum entries STAT_CLI_O_TAB, STAT_CLI_O_CLR and STAT_CLI_O_SET were
removed.
Move the "show info" command to stats.c using the CLI keyword API
to register it on the CLI. The stats_dump_info_to_buffer() function
is now static again. Note, we don't need proto_ssl anymore in cli.c.
Move the "show stat" command to stats.c using the CLI keyword API
to register it on the CLI. The stats_dump_stat_to_buffer() function
is now static again.
Move 'show sess' CLI functions to stream.c and use the cli keyword API
to register it on the CLI.
[wt: the choice of stream vs session makes sense because since 1.6 these
really are streams that we're dumping and not sessions anymore]
Several CLI commands require a frontend, so let's have a function to
look this one up and prepare the appropriate error message and the
appctx's state in case of failure.
Several CLI commands require a server, so let's have a function to
look this one up and prepare the appropriate error message and the
appctx's state in case of failure.
Move map and acl CLI functions to map.c and use the cli keyword API to
register actions on the CLI. Then remove the now unused individual
"add" and "del" keywords.
proto/dumpstats.h has been split in 4 files:
* proto/cli.h contains protypes for the CLI
* proto/stats.h contains prototypes for the stats
* types/cli.h contains definition for the CLI
* types/stats.h contains definition for the stats
These functions will be needed by "show sess" on the CLI, let's make them
globally available. It's important to note that due to the fact that we
still do not set the data and transport layers' names in the structures,
we still have to rely on some exports just to match the pointers. This is
ugly but is preferable to adding many includes since the short-term goal
is to get rid of these tests by having proper names in place.
uint16_t instead of u_int16_t
None ISO fields of struct tm are not present, but
by zeroyfing it, on GNU and BSD systems tm_gmtoff
field will be set.
[wt: moved the memset into each of the date functions]
Setting an FD to -1 when closed isn't the most easily noticeable thing
to do when we're chasing accidental reuse of a stale file descriptor.
Instead set it to that large a negative value that it will overflow the
fdtab and provide an analysable core at the moment the issue happens.
Care was taken to ensure it doesn't overflow nor change sign on 32-bit
machines when multiplied by fdtab, and that it also remains negative for
the various checks that exist. The value equals 0xFDDEADFD which happens
to be easily spotted in a debugger.
The bug described in commit 568743a ("BUG/MEDIUM: stream-int: completely
detach connection on connect error") was not a stream-interface layer bug
but a connection layer bug. There was exactly one place in the code where
we could change a file descriptor's status without first checking whether
it is valid or not, it was in conn_stop_polling(). This one is called when
the polling status is changed after an update, and calls fd_stop_both even
if we had already closed the file descriptor :
1479388298.484240 ->->->->-> conn_fd_handler > conn_cond_update_polling
1479388298.484240 ->->->->->-> conn_cond_update_polling > conn_stop_polling
1479388298.484241 ->->->->->->-> conn_stop_polling > conn_ctrl_ready
1479388298.484241 conn_stop_polling < conn_ctrl_ready
1479388298.484241 ->->->->->->-> conn_stop_polling > fd_stop_both
1479388298.484242 ->->->->->->->-> fd_stop_both > fd_update_cache
1479388298.484242 ->->->->->->->->-> fd_update_cache > fd_release_cache_entry
1479388298.484242 fd_update_cache < fd_release_cache_entry
1479388298.484243 fd_stop_both < fd_update_cache
1479388298.484243 conn_stop_polling < fd_stop_both
1479388298.484243 conn_cond_update_polling < conn_stop_polling
1479388298.484243 conn_fd_handler < conn_cond_update_polling
The problem with the previous fix above is that it break the http_proxy mode
and possibly even some Lua parts and peers to a certain extent ; all outgoing
connections where the target address is initially copied into the outgoing
connection which experience a retry would use a random outgoing address after
the retry because closing and detaching the connection causes the target
address to be lost. This was attempted to be addressed by commit 0857d7a
("BUG/MAJOR: stream: properly mark the server address as unset on connect
retry") but it used to only solve the most visible effect and not the root
cause.
Prior to this fix, it was possible to cause this config to keep CLOSE_WAIT
for as long as it takes to expire a client or server timeout (note the
missing client timeout) :
listen test
mode http
bind :8002
server s1 127.0.0.1:8001
$ tcploop 8001 L0 W N20 A R P100 S:"HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-length: 0\r\n\r\n" &
$ tcploop 8002 N200 C T W S:"GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n" O P10000 K
With this patch, these CLOSE_WAIT properly vanish when both processes leave.
This commit reverts the two fixes above and replaces them with the proper
fix in connection.h. It must be backported to 1.6 and 1.5. Thanks to
Robson Roberto Souza Peixoto for providing very detailed traces showing
some obvious inconsistencies leading to finding this bug.
This pointer will be used for storing private context. With this,
the same executed function can handle more than one keyword. This
will be very useful for creation Lua cli bindings.
The release function is called when the command is terminated (give
back the hand to the prompt) or when the session is broken (timeout
or client closed).
Commit d7c9196 ("MAJOR: filters: Add filters support") removed sample.h
from proto_http.h, but it has become necessary as of commit fd7edd3
("MINOR: Move http method enum from proto_http to sample") in order
to have HTTP_METH_*. Due to this, the "debug/flags" utility doesn't
build anymore.
A new "option spop-check" statement has been added to enable server health
checks based on SPOP HELLO handshake. SPOP is the protocol used by SPOE filters
to talk to servers.
SPOE makes possible the communication with external components to retrieve some
info using an in-house binary protocol, the Stream Processing Offload Protocol
(SPOP). In the long term, its aim is to allow any kind of offloading on the
streams. This first version, besides being experimental, won't do lot of
things. The most important today is to validate the protocol design and lay the
foundations of what will, one day, be a full offload engine for the stream
processing.
So, for now, the SPOE can offload the stream processing before "tcp-request
content", "tcp-response content", "http-request" and "http-response" rules. And
it only supports variables creation/suppression. But, in spite of these limited
features, we can easily imagine to implement a SSO solution, an ip reputation
service or an ip geolocation service.
Internally, the SPOE is implemented as a filter. So, to use it, you must use
following line in a proxy proxy section:
frontend my-front
...
filter spoe [engine <name>] config <file>
...
It uses its own configuration file to keep the HAProxy configuration clean. It
is also a easy way to disable it by commenting out the filter line.
See "doc/SPOE.txt" for all details about the SPOE configuration.
It does the opposite of 'set-var' action/converter. It is really useful for
per-process variables. But, it can be used for any scope.
The lua function 'unset_var' has also been added.
Now it is possible to use variables attached to a process. The scope name is
'proc'. These variables are released only when HAProxy is stopped.
'tune.vars.proc-max-size' directive has been added to confiure the maximum
amount of memory used by "proc" variables. And because memory accounting is
hierachical for variables, memory for "proc" vars includes memory for "sess"
vars.
This function, unsurprisingly, sets a variable value only if it already
exists. In other words, this function will succeed only if the variable was
found somewhere in the configuration during HAProxy startup.
It will be used by SPOE filter. So an agent will be able to set a value only for
existing variables. This prevents an agent to create a very large number of
unused variables to flood HAProxy and exhaust the memory reserved to variables..
This code has been moved from haproxy.c to sample.c and the function
release_sample_expr can now be called from anywhere to release a sample
expression. This function will be used by the stream processing offload engine
(SPOE).
A scope is a section name between square bracket, alone on its line, ie:
[scope-name]
...
The spaces at the beginning and at the end of the line are skipped. Comments at
the end of the line are also skipped.
When a scope is parsed, its name is saved in the global variable
cfg_scope. Initially, cfg_scope is NULL and it remains NULL until a valid scope
line is parsed.
This feature remains unused in the HAProxy configuration file and
undocumented. However, it will be used during SPOE configuration parsing.
This feature will be used by the stream processing offload engine (SPOE) to
parse dedicated configuration files without mixing HAProxy sections with SPOE
sections.
So, here we can back up all sections known by HAProxy, unregister all of them
and add new ones, dedicted to the SPOE. Once the SPOE configuration file parsed,
we can roll back all changes by restoring HAProxy sections.
New callbacks have been added to handle creation and destruction of filter
instances:
* 'attach' callback is called after a filter instance creation, when it is
attached to a stream. This happens when the stream is started for filters
defined on the stream's frontend and when the backend is set for filters
declared on the stream's backend. It is possible to ignore the filter, if
needed, by returning 0. This could be useful to have conditional filtering.
* 'detach' callback is called when a filter instance is detached from a stream,
before its destruction. This happens when the stream is stopped for filters
defined on the stream's frontend and when the analyze ends for filters defined
on the stream's backend.
In addition, the callback 'stream_set_backend' has been added to know when a
backend is set for a stream. It is only called when the frontend and the backend
are not the same. And it is called for all filters attached to a stream
(frontend and backend).
Finally, the TRACE filter has been updated.
It is very common when validating a configuration out of production not to
have access to the same resolvers and to fail on server address resolution,
making it difficult to test a configuration. This option simply appends the
"none" method to the list of address resolution methods for all servers,
ensuring that even if the libc fails to resolve an address, the startup
sequence is not interrupted.
This will allow a server to automatically fall back to an explicit numeric
IP address when all other methods fail. The address is simply specified in
the address list.
This new setting supports a comma-delimited list of methods used to
resolve the server's FQDN to an IP address. Currently supported methods
are "libc" (use the regular libc's resolver) and "last" (use the last
known valid address found in the state file).
The list is implemented in a 32-bit integer, because each init-addr
method only requires 3 bits. The last one must always be SRV_IADDR_END
(0), allowing to store up to 10 methods in a single 32 bit integer.
Note: the doc is provided at the end of this series.
This adds new "hold" timers : nx, refused, timeout, other. This timers
will be used to tell HAProxy to keep an erroneous response as valid for
the corresponding period. For now they're only configured, not enforced.
It will be important to help debugging some DNS resolution issues to
know why a server was marked down, so let's make the function support
a 3rd argument with an indication of the reason. Passing NULL will keep
the message as-is.
This flag has to be set when an IP address resolution fails (either
using libc at start up or using HAProxy's runtime resolver). This will
automatically trigger the administrative status "MAINT", through the
global mask SRV_ADMF_MAINT.
Server addresses are not resolved anymore upon the first pass so that we
don't fail if an address cannot be resolved by the libc. Instead they are
processed all at once after the configuration is fully loaded, by the new
function srv_init_addr(). This function only acts on the server's address
if this address uses an FQDN, which appears in server->hostname.
For now the function does two things, to followup with HAProxy's historical
default behavior:
1. apply server IP address found in server-state file if runtime DNS
resolution is enabled for this server
2. use the DNS resolver provided by the libc
If none of the 2 options above can find an IP address, then an error is
returned.
All of this will be needed to support the new server parameter "init-addr".
For now, the biggest user-visible change is that all server resolution errors
are dumped at once instead of causing a startup failure one by one.
In the last release a lot of the structures have become opaque for an
end user. This means the code using these needs to be changed to use the
proper functions to interact with these structures instead of trying to
manipulate them directly.
This does not fix any deprecations yet that are part of 1.1.0, it only
ensures that it can be compiled against that version and is still
compatible with older ones.
[wt: openssl-0.9.8 doesn't build with it, there are conflicts on certain
function prototypes which we declare as inline here and which are
defined differently there. But openssl-0.9.8 is not supported anymore
so probably it's OK to go without it for now and we'll see later if
some users still need it. Emeric has reviewed this change and didn't
spot anything obvious which requires special care. Let's try it for
real now]
The only reason wurfl/wurfl.h was needed outside of wurfl.c was to expose
wurfl_handle which is a pointer to a structure, referenced by global.h.
By just storing a void* there instead, we can confine all wurfl code to
wurfl.c, which is really nice.
WURFL is a high-performance and low-memory footprint mobile device
detection software component that can quickly and accurately detect
over 500 capabilities of visiting devices. It can differentiate between
portable mobile devices, desktop devices, SmartTVs and any other types
of devices on which a web browser can be installed.
In order to add WURFL device detection support, you would need to
download Scientiamobile InFuze C API and install it on your system.

Right now there is an issue with the way the maintenance flags are
propagated upon startup. They are not propagate, just copied from the
tracked server. This implies that depending on the server's order, some
tracking servers may not be marked down. For example this configuration
does not work as expected :
server s1 1.1.1.1:8000 track s2
server s2 1.1.1.1:8000 track s3
server s3 1.1.1.1:8000 track s4
server s4 wtap:8000 check inter 1s disabled
It results in s1/s2 being up, and s3/s4 being down, while all of them
should be down.
The only clean way to process this is to run through all "root" servers
(those not tracking any other server), and to propagate their state down
to all their trackers. This is the same algorithm used to propagate the
state changes. It has to be done both to compute the IDRAIN flag and the
IMAINT flag. However, doing so requires that tracking servers are not
marked as inherited maintenance anymore while parsing the configuration
(and given that it is wrong, better drop it).
This fix also addresses another side effect of the bug above which is
that the IDRAIN/IMAINT flags are stored in the state files, and if
restored while the tracked server doesn't have the equivalent flag,
the servers may end up in a situation where it's impossible to remove
these flags. For example in the configuration above, after removing
"disabled" on server s4, the other servers would have remained down,
and not anymore with this fix. Similarly, the combination of IMAINT
or IDRAIN with their respective forced modes was not accepted on
reload, which is wrong as well.
This bug has been present at least since 1.5, maybe even 1.4 (it came
with tracking support). The fix needs to be backported there, though
the srv-state parts are irrelevant.
This commit relies on previous patch to silence warnings on startup.
We used to have 7 different character classes, each was 256 bytes long,
resulting in almost 2kB being used in the L1 cache. It's as cheap to
test a bit than to check the byte is not null, so let's store a 7-bit
composite value and check for the respective bits there instead.
The executable is now 4 kB smaller and the performance on small
objects increased by about 1% to 222k requests/second with a config
involving 4 http-request rules including 1 header lookup, one header
replacement, and 2 variable assignments.
