These offsets were relative to the buffer itself. Now they're relative to
the buffer's origin (buf->p) which normally corresponds to the start of
current message.
This saves a big dependency between the HTTP message struct and the buffers.
It appeared during this change that ->col is not used anymore (it will have
to be removed). Next step is to turn ->eol and ->sol from absolute to relative.
The buffer's pointer <lr> was only used by HTTP parsers which also use a
struct http_msg to keep track of the parser's state. We've reached a point
where it makes no sense to keep ->lr in the buffer, as the split between
buffer and msg is only arbitrary for historical reasons.
This change ensures that touching buffers will not impact HTTP messages
anymore, making the buffers more content-agnostic. However, it becomes
very important not to forget to update msg->next when some data get
forwarded or moved (and in general each time buf->p is updated).
The new pointer in http_msg becomes relative to buffer->p so that
parsing multiple messages becomes easier. It is possible that at one
point ->som and ->next will be merged.
Note: http_parse_reqline() and http_parse_stsline() have been temporarily
modified to know the message starting point in the buffer (->p).
This change gets rid of buf->r which is always equal to buf->p + buf->i.
It removed some wrapping detection at a number of places, but required addition
of new relative offset computations at other locations. A large number of places
can be simplified now with extreme care, since most of the time, either the
pointer has to be computed once or we need a difference between the old ->w and
old ->r to compute free space. The cleanup will probably happen with the rewrite
of the buffer_input_* and buffer_output_* functions anyway.
buf->lr still has to move to the struct http_msg and be relative to buf->p
for the rework to be complete.
This change introduces the buffer's base pointer, which is the limit between
incoming and outgoing data. It's the point where the parsing should start
from. A number of computations have already been greatly simplified, but
more simplifications are expected to come from the removal of buf->r.
The changes appear good and have revealed occasional improper use of some
pointers. It is possible that this patch has introduced bugs or revealed
some, although preliminary testings tend to indicate that everything still
works as it should.
We don't have buf->l anymore. We have buf->i for pending data and
the total length is retrieved by adding buf->o. Some computation
already become simpler.
Despite extreme care, bugs are not excluded.
It's worth noting that msg->err_pos as set by HTTP request/response
analysers becomes relative to pending data and not to the beginning
of the buffer. This has not been completed yet so differences might
occur when outgoing data are left in the buffer.
Also add some thoughts about the existing and new design.
Note: an earlier design used the names "head" and "tail" for both sides
of the buffer, but it appears awkward as these words may be understood
in two forms (feed by head, output by tail, or make the newcomers wait
at the tail of the queue). Also there were already a few functions in the
code making use of either terminology. So better avoid this terminology
and use "input" and "output" instead.
Too many flags are stored in the transaction structure. Some flags are
clearly message-specific and exist in two versions (request and response).
Move them to a new "flags" field in the http_message struct instead.
There were a few unchecked write() calls in the debug code that cause
gcc 4.x to emit warnings on recent libc. We don't want to check them
as we can't make anything from the result, let's simply surround them
with an empty if statement.
Note that one of the warnings was for chdir("/") which normally cannot
fail since it follows a successful chroot (which means the perms are
necessarily there). Anyway let's move the call uppe to protect it too.
memprintf() is just like snprintf() except that it always returns a properly
sized allocated string that the caller is responsible for freeing. NULL is
returned on serious errors. It also supports stackable calls over the same
pointer since it offers support for automatically freeing a previous one :
memprintf(&err, "invalid argument: '%s'", arg);
...
memprintf(&err, "keyword parser said: <%s>", *err);
...
memprintf(&err, "line parser said: %s\n", *err);
...
free(*err);
The issue only happens when DEBUG_FULL is enabled, which causes
http_msg_analyzer() to complain if it's called twice with an invalid
message, for instance because of two consecutive ACLs using req_proto_http.
The code is commented out when DEBUG_FULL is disabled, so this is not a bug,
just an annoyance for the developer.
The three warnings below are totally wrong since the variables depend on another
one which is only turned on when the variables are initialized. Still this gcc-4.1.2
isn't able to see this and prefers to complain wrongly. So let's initialize the
variables to shut it up since we're not in the fast path.
src/proto_http.c: In function 'acl_fetch_any_cookie_cnt':
src/proto_http.c:8393: warning: 'val_end' may be used uninitialized in this function
src/proto_http.c: In function 'http_process_req_stat_post':
src/proto_http.c:2577: warning: 'st_next_param' may be used uninitialized in this function
src/proto_http.c:2577: warning: 'st_cur_param' may be used uninitialized in this function
It's very annoying that we have to deal with the crappy size_t and with ints
at some places because these ones don't mix well. Patch 6f61b2 changed the
chunk len to int but its size remains size_t and some functions are having
trouble being used by several callers depending on the type of their arguments.
Let's turn extract_cookie_value() to int for now on, and plan a massive cleanup
later to remove all size_t.
- Typo on "dispatch" keyword arguments.
- Reindent some blocks for better parsing by automated tools.
- "option mysql-check" and "option pgsql-check" arguments were not documented
as the others.
I have modified dumpstats.c to show additional information for the show
session <id> command on the statistics socket. This will dump the
public, frontend, backend, and server ip/tcp addresses and port. We
found it useful to have this information available in real time and
could not find another way of getting this information.
The wrong byte was checked for the session_id length in the payload. This
used to work when the session ID was absent because zero was found there,
but when a session ID is present, there is 1/256 chance that the inspected
data contains 0x20 (the actual session ID length), so it fails.
Thanks to Emmanuel Bzagu for reporting this bug.
This bug does not need backporting, it is 1.5 specific.
This patch is a group commit simplify the parsing of the documenation :
- remove remaining tabulations
- realign some lines
- break lines at 80 columns
- add missing chapters in the summary
- fix chapter numbering format
These callbacks are used to retrieve the source and destination address
of a socket. The address flags are not hold on the stream interface and
not on the session anymore. The addresses are collected when needed.
This still needs to be improved to store the IP and port separately so
that it is not needed to perform a getsockname() when only the IP address
is desired for outgoing traffic.
The Unique ID, is an ID generated with several informations. You can use
a log-format string to customize it, with the "unique-id-format" keyword,
and insert it in the request header, with the "unique-id-header" keyword.
%Fi: Frontend IP
%Fp: Frontend Port
%Si: Server IP
%Sp: Server Port
%Ts: Timestamp
%rt: HTTP request counter
%H: hostname
%pid: PID
+X: Hexadecimal represenation
The +X mode in logformat displays hexadecimal for the following flags
%Ci %Cp %Fi %Fp %Bi %Bp %Si %Sp %Ts %ct %pid
rename logformat_write_string() to lf_text()
Optimize size computation
* logformat functions now take a format linked list as argument
* build_logline() build a logline using a format linked list
* rename LOG_* by LOG_FMT_* in enum
* improve error management in build_logline()
The ACL matches rely on the extract_cookie_value() function as used for
for patterns. This permits ACLs to match cookie values based on the cookie
name instead of having to perform substring matching on the cookie header.
Sometimes it is desirable to forward a particular request to a specific
server without having to declare a dedicated backend for this server. This
can be achieved using the "use-server" rules. These rules are evaluated after
the "redirect" rules and before evaluating cookies, and they have precedence
on them. There may be as many "use-server" rules as desired. All of these
rules are evaluated in their declaration order, and the first one which
matches will assign the server.
memcmp()/strcmp() calls were needed in different parts of code to determine
the status code. Each new status code introduces new calls, which can become
inefficient and source of bugs.
This patch reorganizes the code to rely on a numeric status code internally
and to be hopefully more generic.
Proxy ids are unique whereas names can be used several times in the
configuration. In order to prevent the ambiguity, the HTML form now provides
the backend id instead of its name (the name can still be provided in the POST
data).
Previously, the stats admin page required POST parameters to be provided
exactly in the same order as the HTML form.
This patch allows to handle those parameters in any orders.
Also, note that haproxy won't alter server states anymore if backend or server
names are ambiguous (duplicated names in the configuration) to prevent
unexpected results (the same should probably be applied to the stats socket).
This tool has remained uncommitted in my development tree for almost a year.
Just minor polish and commit.
It can be used to convert some geolocation IP lists to ACLs.
The hash of IPv6 addresses was not properly aligned and resulted in the
last quarter of the address not being hashed. In practice, this is rarely
detected since MAC addresses are used in the second half. But this becomes
very visible with IPv6-mapped IPv4 addresses such as ::FFFF:1.2.3.4 where
the IPv4 part is never hashed.
This bug has been there forever, since introduction of "balance source" in
v1.2.11. The fix must then be backported to all stable versions.
Thanks to Alex Markham for reporting this issue to the list !

- BUG/CRITICAL: log: fix risk of crash in development snapshot
- BUG/MAJOR: possible crash when using capture headers on TCP frontends
- MINOR: config: disable header captures in TCP mode and complain
Olufemi Omojola provided a config and a core showing a possible crash
when captures are configured on a TCP-mode frontend which branches to
an HTTP backend. The reason is that being in TCP mode, the frontend
does not allocate capture pools for the request, but the HTTP backend
tries to use them and dies on the NULL.
While such a config has long been unlikely to happen, it looks like
people using websocket tend to do this more often now.
Change the control to use the pointer instead of the number of captures
to know when to log.
This bug was reported in 1.4.20, so it must be backported there.
The main stats page says "ressources" (French spelling) rather than
"resources" (English spelling).
One little patch attached (against v1.4.20).
Many thanks,
Adrian
__send_log(): the size of the buffer sent is wrong when the facility
is lower than 3 digits.
logformat_write_string(): computation of size is wrong
Note: this was introduced after 1.5-dev7, no backport needed.
