In issue #685 gcc 10 seems to find a null pointer deref in free_zlib().
There is no such case because all possible pools are tested and there's
no other one in zlib, except if there's a bug or memory corruption
somewhere else. The code used to be written like this to make sure that
any such bug couldn't remain unnoticed.
Now gcc 10 sees this theorical code path and complains, so let's just
change the code to place an explicit crash in case of no match (which
must never happen).
This might be backported if other versions are affected.
This patch fixes all the leftovers from the include cleanup campaign. There
were not that many (~400 entries in ~150 files) but it was definitely worth
doing it as it revealed a few duplicates.
There's no point splitting the file in two since only cfgparse uses the
types defined there. A few call places were updated and cleaned up. All
of them were in C files which register keywords.
There is nothing left in common/ now so this directory must not be used
anymore.
This one was not easy because it was embarking many includes with it,
which other files would automatically find. At least global.h, arg.h
and tools.h were identified. 93 total locations were identified, 8
additional includes had to be added.
In the rare files where it was possible to finalize the sorting of
includes by adjusting only one or two extra lines, it was done. But
all files would need to be rechecked and cleaned up now.
It was the last set of files in types/ and proto/ and these directories
must not be reused anymore.
The files were moved almost as-is, just dropping arg-t and auth-t from
acl-t but keeping arg-t in acl.h. It was useful to revisit the call places
since a handful of files used to continue to include acl.h while they did
not need it at all. Struct stream was only made a forward declaration
since not otherwise needed.
global.h was one of the messiest files, it has accumulated tons of
implicit dependencies and declares many globals that make almost all
other file include it. It managed to silence a dependency loop between
server.h and proxy.h by being well placed to pre-define the required
structs, forcing struct proxy and struct server to be forward-declared
in a significant number of files.
It was split in to, one which is the global struct definition and the
few macros and flags, and the rest containing the functions prototypes.
The UNIX_MAX_PATH definition was moved to compat.h.
The pretty confusing "buffer.h" was in fact not the place to look for
the definition of "struct buffer" but the one responsible for dynamic
buffer allocation. As such it defines the struct buffer_wait and the
few functions to allocate a buffer or wait for one.
This patch moves it renaming it to dynbuf.h. The type definition was
moved to its own file since it's included in a number of other structs.
Doing this cleanup revealed that a significant number of files used to
rely on this one to inherit struct buffer through it but didn't need
anything from this file at all.
Now the file is ready to be stored into its final destination. A few
minor reorderings were performed to keep the file properly organized,
making the various sections more visible (cache & lockless).
In addition and to stay consistent, memory.c was renamed to pool.c.
types/freq_ctr.h was moved to haproxy/freq_ctr-t.h and proto/freq_ctr.h
was moved to haproxy/freq_ctr.h. Files were updated accordingly, no other
change was applied.
This splits the hathreads.h file into types+macros and functions. Given
that most users of this file used to include it only to get the definition
of THREAD_LOCAL and MAXTHREADS, the bare minimum was placed into thread-t.h
(i.e. types and macros).
All the thread management was left to haproxy/thread.h. It's worth noting
the drop of the trailing "s" in the name, to remove the permanent confusion
that arises between this one and the system implementation (no "s") and the
makefile's option (no "s").
For consistency, src/hathreads.c was also renamed thread.c.
A number of files were updated to only include thread-t which is the one
they really needed.
Some future improvements are possible like replacing empty inlined
functions with macros for the thread-less case, as building at -O0 disables
inlining and causes these ones to be emitted. But this really is cosmetic.
All files that were including one of the following include files have
been updated to only include haproxy/api.h or haproxy/api-t.h once instead:
- common/config.h
- common/compat.h
- common/compiler.h
- common/defaults.h
- common/initcall.h
- common/tools.h
The choice is simple: if the file only requires type definitions, it includes
api-t.h, otherwise it includes the full api.h.
In addition, in these files, explicit includes for inttypes.h and limits.h
were dropped since these are now covered by api.h and api-t.h.
No other change was performed, given that this patch is large and
affects 201 files. At least one (tools.h) was already freestanding and
didn't get the new one added.
This commit replaces the explicit pool creation that are made in
constructors with a pool registration. Not only this simplifies the
pools declaration (it can be done on a single line after the head is
declared), but it also removes references to pools from within
constructors. The only remaining create_pool() calls are those
performed in init functions after the config is parsed, so there
is no more user of potentially uninitialized pool now.
It has been the opportunity to remove no less than 12 constructors
and 6 init functions.
Most register_build_opts() calls use static strings. These ones were
replaced with a trivial REGISTER_BUILD_OPTS() statement adding the string
and its call to the STG_REGISTER section. A dedicated section could be
made for this if needed, but there are very few such calls for this to
be worth it. The calls made with computed strings however, like those
which retrieve OpenSSL's version or zlib's version, were moved to a
dedicated function to guarantee they are called late in the process.
For example, the SSL call probably requires that SSL_library_init()
has been called first.
This patch replaces a number of __decl_hathread() followed by HA_SPIN_INIT
or HA_RWLOCK_INIT by the new __decl_spinlock() or __decl_rwlock() which
automatically registers the lock for initialization in during the STG_LOCK
init stage. A few static modifiers were lost in the process, but since they
were not essential at all it was not worth extending the API to provide such
a variant.
This switches explicit calls to various trivial registration methods for
keywords, muxes or protocols from constructors to INITCALL1 at stage
STG_REGISTER. All these calls have in common to consume a single pointer
and return void. Doing this removes 26 constructors. The following calls
were addressed :
- acl_register_keywords
- bind_register_keywords
- cfg_register_keywords
- cli_register_kw
- flt_register_keywords
- http_req_keywords_register
- http_res_keywords_register
- protocol_register
- register_mux_proto
- sample_register_convs
- sample_register_fetches
- srv_register_keywords
- tcp_req_conn_keywords_register
- tcp_req_cont_keywords_register
- tcp_req_sess_keywords_register
- tcp_res_cont_keywords_register
- flt_register_keywords
Surprisingly, the compression pool was created at runtime on first use,
which is not very convenient, has performance and reliability impacts,
and even makes monitoring less easy. Let's move the pool creation at
startup time instead. This even removes the need for the spinlock in
case USE_ZLIB is not defined.
The tune.maxzlibmem setting was moved with commit 368780334 ("MEDIUM:
compression: move the zlib-specific stuff from global.h to compression.c")
but the preset value using DEFAULT_MAXZLIBMEM was incorrectly moved :
- the field is in "global" and not "global.tune"
- the trailing comma instead of semi-colon will make it either zero
(threads enabled), break (threads enabled with debugging), or cast
the memprintf's return pointer to int (threads disabled)
It simply proves that nobody ever used DEFAULT_MAXZLIBMEM since 1.8!
This needs to be backported to 1.8.
It's a bit painful to have to deal with HTTP semantics for each protocol
version (H1 and H2), and working on the version-agnostic code further
emphasizes the problem.
This patch creates http.h and http.c which are agnostic to the version
in use, and which borrow a few parts from proto_http and from h1. For
example the once thought h1-specific h1_char_classes array is in fact
dictated by RFC7231 and is used to parse HTTP headers. A few changes
were made to a few files which were including proto_http.h while they
only needed http.h.
Certain string definitions pre-dated the introduction of indirect
strings (ist) so some were used to simplify the definition of the known
HTTP methods. The current lookup code saves 2 kB of a heavily used table
and is faster than the previous table based lookup (typ. 14 ns vs 16
before).
Now the buffers only contain the header and a pointer to the storage
area which can be anywhere. This will significantly simplify buffer
swapping and will make it possible to map chunks on buffers as well.
The buf_empty variable was removed, as now it's enough to have size==0
and area==NULL to designate the empty buffer (thus a non-allocated head
is the empty buffer by default). buf_wanted for now is indicated by
size==0 and area==(void *)1.
The channels and the checks now embed the buffer's head, and the only
pointer is to the storage area. This slightly increases the unallocated
buffer size (3 extra ints for the empty buffer) but considerably
simplifies dynamic buffer management. It will also later permit to
detach unused checks.
The way the struct buffer is arranged has proven quite efficient on a
number of tests, which makes sense given that size is always accessed
and often first, followed by the othe ones.
This part is tricky, it passes a channel where we used to have a buffer,
in order to reduce the API changes during the big switch. This way all
the channel's wrappers to distinguish between input and output are
available. It also makes sense given that the compression applies on
a channel since it's in the forwarding path.
We used to have variations around buffer_total_space() and
size-buffer_len() or size-b_data(). Let's simplify all this. buffer_len()
was also removed as not used anymore.
During the migration to the second version of the pools, the new
functions and pool pointers were all called "pool_something2()" and
"pool2_something". Now there's no more pool v1 code and it's a real
pain to still have to deal with this. Let's clean this up now by
removing the "2" everywhere, and by renaming the pool heads
"pool_head_something".
This macro should be used to declare variables or struct members depending on
the USE_THREAD compile option. It avoids the encapsulation of such declarations
between #ifdef/#endif. It is used to declare all lock variables.
When haproxy is compiled without zlib or slz, the output of
haproxy -vv shows (null).
Make haproxy -vv output great again by providing the proper
information (which is what we did before).
This is for 1.8 only.
This finishes to clean up the zlib-specific parts. It also unbreaks recent
commit b97c6fb ("CLEANUP: compression: use the build options list to report
the algos") which broke USE_ZLIB due to MAXWBITS not being defined anymore
in haproxy.c.
This removes 2 #ifdef, an include, an ugly construct and a wild "extern"
declaration from haproxy.c. The message indicating that compression is
*not* enabled is not there anymore.
This warning appears when building without any compression library :
src/compression.c:143:19: warning: unused function 'init_comp_ctx' [-Wunused-function]

^
src/compression.c:176:19: warning: unused function 'deinit_comp_ctx' [-Wunused-function]

No backport is needed.
For quite some time, a few users have been experiencing random crashes
when compressing with zlib, from versions 1.2.3 to 1.2.8 included.
Upon thourough investigation in zlib's deflate.c, it appeared obvious
that avail_in and next_in are used during the flush operation and need
to be initialized, while admittedly it's not obvious in the documentation.
By simply forcing both values to -1 it's possible to immediately reproduce
the exact crash that these users have been experiencing :

Note that for all reports deflate_flush_or_finish() was always involved.
The crash is very hard to reproduce when using regular traffic because it
requires that the combination of avail_in and next_in are inadequate so
that the memcpy() call reads out of bounds. But this can very likely
happen when the input buffer points to an area reused by another stream
when the flush has been interrupted due to a full output buffer. This
also explains why this report is recent, as dynamic buffer allocation
was introduced in 1.6.
Anyway it's not acceptable to call a function with a randomly set input
buffer. The deflate() function explicitly checks for the case where both
avail_in and next_in are null and doesn't use it in this case during a
flush, so this is the best solution.
Special thanks to Sasha Litvak, James Hartshorn and Paul Bauer for
reporting very useful stack traces which were critical to finding the
root cause of this bug.
This fix must be backported into 1.6 and 1.5, though 1.5 is less likely to
trigger this case given that it keeps its own buffers allocated all along
the session's life.
Instead of repeating the type of the LHS argument (sizeof(struct ...))
in calls to malloc/calloc, we directly use the pointer
name (sizeof(*...)). The following Coccinelle patch was used:

a first argument of calloc, not the last one:

HTTP compression will be moved in a true filter. To prepare the ground, some
functions have been moved in a dedicated file. Idea is to keep everything about
compression algos in compression.c and everything related to the filtering in
flt_http_comp.c.
For now, a header has been added to help during the transition. It will be
removed later.
Unused empty ACL keyword list was removed. The "compression" keyword
parser was moved from cfgparse.c to flt_http_comp.c.
This patch adds the support of filters in HAProxy. The main idea is to have a
way to "easely" extend HAProxy by adding some "modules", called filters, that
will be able to change HAProxy behavior in a programmatic way.
To do so, many entry points has been added in code to let filters to hook up to
different steps of the processing. A filter must define a flt_ops sutrctures
(see include/types/filters.h for details). This structure contains all available
callbacks that a filter can define:
struct flt_ops {
/*
* Callbacks to manage the filter lifecycle
*/
int (*init) (struct proxy *p);
void (*deinit)(struct proxy *p);
int (*check) (struct proxy *p);
/*
* Stream callbacks
*/
void (*stream_start) (struct stream *s);
void (*stream_accept) (struct stream *s);
void (*session_establish)(struct stream *s);
void (*stream_stop) (struct stream *s);
/*
* HTTP callbacks
*/
int (*http_start) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_start_body) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_start_chunk) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_data) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_last_chunk) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_end_chunk) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_chunk_trailers)(struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_end_body) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
void (*http_end) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
void (*http_reset) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_pre_process) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_post_process) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
void (*http_reply) (struct stream *s, short status,
const struct chunk *msg);
};
To declare and use a filter, in the configuration, the "filter" keyword must be
used in a listener/frontend section:
frontend test
...
filter <FILTER-NAME> [OPTIONS...]
The filter referenced by the <FILTER-NAME> must declare a configuration parser
on its own name to fill flt_ops and filter_conf field in the proxy's
structure. An exemple will be provided later to make it perfectly clear.
For now, filters cannot be used in backend section. But this is only a matter of
time. Documentation will also be added later. This is the first commit of a long
list about filters.
It is possible to have several filters on the same listener/frontend. These
filters are stored in an array of at most MAX_FILTERS elements (define in
include/types/filters.h). Again, this will be replaced later by a list of
filters.
The filter API has been highly refactored. Main changes are:
* Now, HA supports an infinite number of filters per proxy. To do so, filters
are stored in list.
* Because filters are stored in list, filters state has been moved from the
channel structure to the filter structure. This is cleaner because there is no
more info about filters in channel structure.
* It is possible to defined filters on backends only. For such filters,
stream_start/stream_stop callbacks are not called. Of course, it is possible
to mix frontend and backend filters.
* Now, TCP streams are also filtered. All callbacks without the 'http_' prefix
are called for all kind of streams. In addition, 2 new callbacks were added to
filter data exchanged through a TCP stream:
- tcp_data: it is called when new data are available or when old unprocessed
data are still waiting.
- tcp_forward_data: it is called when some data can be consumed.
* New callbacks attached to channel were added:
- channel_start_analyze: it is called when a filter is ready to process data
exchanged through a channel. 2 new analyzers (a frontend and a backend)
are attached to channels to call this callback. For a frontend filter, it
is called before any other analyzer. For a backend filter, it is called
when a backend is attached to a stream. So some processing cannot be
filtered in that case.
- channel_analyze: it is called before each analyzer attached to a channel,
expects analyzers responsible for data sending.
- channel_end_analyze: it is called when all other analyzers have finished
their processing. A new analyzers is attached to channels to call this
callback. For a TCP stream, this is always the last one called. For a HTTP
one, the callback is called when a request/response ends, so it is called
one time for each request/response.
* 'session_established' callback has been removed. Everything that is done in
this callback can be handled by 'channel_start_analyze' on the response
channel.
* 'http_pre_process' and 'http_post_process' callbacks have been replaced by
'channel_analyze'.
* 'http_start' callback has been replaced by 'http_headers'. This new one is
called just before headers sending and parsing of the body.
* 'http_end' callback has been replaced by 'channel_end_analyze'.
* It is possible to set a forwarder for TCP channels. It was already possible to
do it for HTTP ones.
* Forwarders can partially consumed forwardable data. For this reason a new
HTTP message state was added before HTTP_MSG_DONE : HTTP_MSG_ENDING.
Now all filters can define corresponding callbacks (http_forward_data
and tcp_forward_data). Each filter owns 2 offsets relative to buf->p, next and
forward, to track, respectively, input data already parsed but not forwarded yet
by the filter and parsed data considered as forwarded by the filter. A any time,
we have the warranty that a filter cannot parse or forward more input than
previous ones. And, of course, it cannot forward more input than it has
parsed. 2 macros has been added to retrieve these offets: FLT_NXT and FLT_FWD.
In addition, 2 functions has been added to change the 'next size' and the
'forward size' of a filter. When a filter parses input data, it can alter these
data, so the size of these data can vary. This action has an effet on all
previous filters that must be handled. To do so, the function
'filter_change_next_size' must be called, passing the size variation. In the
same spirit, if a filter alter forwarded data, it must call the function
'filter_change_forward_size'. 'filter_change_next_size' can be called in
'http_data' and 'tcp_data' callbacks and only these ones. And
'filter_change_forward_size' can be called in 'http_forward_data' and
'tcp_forward_data' callbacks and only these ones. The data changes are the
filter responsability, but with some limitation. It must not change already
parsed/forwarded data or data that previous filters have not parsed/forwarded
yet.
Because filters can be used on backends, when we the backend is set for a
stream, we add filters defined for this backend in the filter list of the
stream. But we must only do that when the backend and the frontend of the stream
are not the same. Else same filters are added a second time leading to undefined
behavior.
The HTTP compression code had to be moved.
So it simplifies http_response_forward_body function. To do so, the way the data
are forwarded has changed. Now, a filter (and only one) can forward data. In a
commit to come, this limitation will be removed to let all filters take part to
data forwarding. There are 2 new functions that filters should use to deal with
this feature:
* flt_set_http_data_forwarder: This function sets the filter (using its id)
that will forward data for the specified HTTP message. It is possible if it
was not already set by another filter _AND_ if no data was yet forwarded
(msg->msg_state <= HTTP_MSG_BODY). It returns -1 if an error occurs.
* flt_http_data_forwarder: This function returns the filter id that will
forward data for the specified HTTP message. If there is no forwarder set, it
returns -1.
When an HTTP data forwarder is set for the response, the HTTP compression is
disabled. Of course, this is not definitive.
The union name "data" is a little bit heavy while we read the source
code because we can read "data.data.sint". The rename from "data" to "u"
makes the read easiest like "data.u.sint".
This patch remove the struct information stored both in the struct
sample_data and in the striuct sample. Now, only thestruct sample_data
contains data, and the struct sample use the struct sample_data for storing
his own data.
This patch removes the 32 bits unsigned integer and the 32 bit signed
integer. It replaces these types by a unique type 64 bit signed.
This makes easy the usage of integer and clarify signed and unsigned use.
With the previous version, signed and unsigned are used ones in place of
others, and sometimes the converter loose the sign. For example, divisions
are processed with "unsigned", if one entry is negative, the result is
wrong.
Note that the integer pattern matching and dotted version pattern matching
are already working with signed 64 bits integer values.
There is one user-visible change : the "uint()" and "sint()" sample fetch
functions which used to return a constant integer have been replaced with
a new more natural, unified "int()" function. These functions were only
introduced in the latest 1.6-dev2 so there's no impact on regular
deployments.
This patch removes the structs "session", "stream" and "proxy" from
the sample-fetches and converters function prototypes.
This permits to remove some weight in the prototype call.
Many such function need a session, and till now they used to dereference
the stream. Once we remove the stream from the embryonic session, this
will not be possible anymore.
So as of now, sample fetch functions will be called with this :
- sess = NULL, strm = NULL : never
- sess = valid, strm = NULL : tcp-req connection
- sess = valid, strm = valid, strm->txn = NULL : tcp-req content
- sess = valid, strm = valid, strm->txn = valid : http-req / http-res
All of them can now retrieve the HTTP transaction *if it exists* from
the stream and be sure to get NULL there when called with an embryonic
session.
The patch is a bit large because many locations were touched (all fetch
functions had to have their prototype adjusted). The opportunity was
taken to also uniformize the call names (the stream is now always "strm"
instead of "l4") and to fix indent where it was broken. This way when
we later introduce the session here there will be less confusion.
Now this one is dynamically allocated. It means that 280 bytes of memory
are saved per TCP stream, but more importantly that it will become
possible to remove the l7 pointer from fetches and converters since
it will be deduced from the stream and will support being null.
A lot of care was taken because it's easy to forget a test somewhere,
and the previous code used to always trust s->txn for being valid, but
all places seem to have been visited.
All HTTP fetch functions check the txn first so we shouldn't have any
issue there even when called from TCP. When branching from a TCP frontend
to an HTTP backend, the txn is properly allocated at the same time as the
hdr_idx.
Just like for the listener, the frontend is session-wide so let's move
it to the session. There are a lot of places which were changed but the
changes are minimal in fact.
With HTTP/2, we'll have to support multiplexed streams. A stream is in
fact the largest part of what we currently call a session, it has buffers,
logs, etc.
In order to catch any error, this commit removes any reference to the
struct session and tries to rename most "session" occurrences in function
names to "stream" and "sess" to "strm" when that's related to a session.
The files stream.{c,h} were added and session.{c,h} removed.
The session will be reintroduced later and a few parts of the stream
will progressively be moved overthere. It will more or less contain
only what we need in an embryonic session.
Sample fetch functions and converters will have to change a bit so
that they'll use an L5 (session) instead of what's currently called
"L4" which is in fact L6 for now.
Once all changes are completed, we should see approximately this :
L7 - http_txn
L6 - stream
L5 - session
L4 - connection | applet
There will be at most one http_txn per stream, and a same session will
possibly be referenced by multiple streams. A connection will point to
a session and to a stream. The session will hold all the information
we need to keep even when we don't yet have a stream.
Some more cleanup is needed because some code was already far from
being clean. The server queue management still refers to sessions at
many places while comments talk about connections. This will have to
be cleaned up once we have a server-side connection pool manager.
Stream flags "SN_*" still need to be renamed, it doesn't seem like
any of them will need to move to the session.
