This is the best place to reuse a connection. We centralize all
connection requests and we're at the best place to know exactly
what the current state of the underlying connection is. If the
connection is reused, we just enable polling for send() in order
to be able to emit the request.
When allocating a new connection, only the caller knows whether it's
acceptable to reuse the previous one or not. Let's pass this information
to si_alloc_conn() which will do the cleanup if the connection is not
acceptable.
This new option enables HTTP keep-alive processing on the connections.
It can be overwritten by http-server-close, httpclose and forceclose.
Right now full-chain keep-alive is not yet implemented, but we need
the option to work on it. The doc will come later.
It's common to observe a an recv() call on the client side just after
the connect() to has been issued to the server side when running in
server close mode. The reason is that the whole request has been sent
and the shutw() has been queued in the channel, so the request message
switches to the MSG_CLOSED state, which didn't disable reading. Let's
do it now. That way the reading will only be re-enabled after the
response is transferred to the client. However if abortonclose is set,
we still leave it enabled.
strace shows a lot of EAGAIN on small response messages. This
is caused by the fact that the READ_DONTWAIT flag is not set
on response message, it's only there when we want to flush
pending data.
For small responses, it's a waste of CPU cycles to call recv()
for nothing since most of the time, everything we'll need will
be in the first response. Also, this will offer more opportunities
for using splice() to transfer data.
Right now we see many places doing their own setsockopt(SO_LINGER).
Better only do it just before the close() in fd_delete(). For this
we add a new flag on the file descriptor, indicating if it's safe or
not to linger. If not (eg: after a connect()), then the setsockopt()
call is automatically performed before a close().
The flag automatically turns to safe when receiving a read0.
conn_xprt_ready() reports if the transport layer is ready.
conn_ctrl_ready() reports if the control layer is ready.
The stream interface uses si_conn_ready() to report that the
underlying connection is ready. This will be used for connection
reuse in keep-alive mode.
Since the recent addition of map updates, haproxy does not build anymore
on Solaris because "s_addr" is a #define :
src/dumpstats.c: In function `stats_map_lookup':
src/dumpstats.c:4688: error: syntax error before '.' token
src/dumpstats.c:4781: error: `S_un' undeclared (first use in this function)
src/dumpstats.c:4781: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
src/dumpstats.c:4781: error: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [src/dumpstats.o] Error 1
Simply rename the variable.
The is* macros must not use a char on Solaris. Unsigned char is OK.
Casting char to int is wrong as well since we get a negative value.
src/log.c: In function `parse_logformat_string':
src/log.c:454: warning: subscript has type `char'
Gcc 3.4 warns that mask may be used uninitialized in pattern.c. This
is wrong since it's used in the same condition as its assignment,
although it's not necessarily obvious for the compiler. Fix this by
initializing the value.
This was introduced by recent commit 01cdcd4a so no backport is needed.
We'd rather skip any line containing "$Format" and not just those
beginning with it because SUBVERS starts with a dash and caused a
bad format to be reported.
Since recent commit f79c817 (MAJOR: connection: add two new flags to
indicate readiness of control/transport) and the surrounding commits,
the session initialization has been slightly delayed and the control
layer of the connection is not yet initialized when processing the
rules.
We need to move that minimal initialization a bit above.
The bug was introduced with latest changes, no backport is needed.
If a server is disabled in configuration and another one tracks it,
this last one must not inherit the MAINT flag otherwise it needs to
be explicitly enabled afterwards. Just remove this to fix the issue.
Since commit 58c3297 (MEDIUM: Set rise and fall of agent checks to 1),
due to a bogus condition, it became impossible to re-enable a server
that was disabled in the configuration if no agent was enabled. The
reason is that in this case, the agent's health was zero while the
condition expected it to be at least one to consider the action.
Let's fix this by only considering the health of checks that are enabled.
The agent is able to retrieve some weight information from the server
and will eventually be able to force the server into maintenance mode.
It doesn't seem logical to have it depend on the health check being
configured, as for some servers it might very well make sense to only
fetch the weight from the server's load regardless of the health.
So let's stop disabling the agent checks when health checks are disabled.
Till now, a configuration required at least one health check in the
whole config file to create the agent tasks. Now we start them even
if no health check is enabled.
Health checks can now be paused. This is the status they get when the
server is put into maintenance mode, which is more logical than relying
on the server's state at some places. It will be needed to allow agent
checks to run when health checks are disabled (currently not possible).
start_checks() only used to consider the health checks intervals to
compute the start interval, so if an agent had a faster check than
all health checks, it would be significantly delayed.
Having the check state partially stored in the server doesn't help.
Some functions such as srv_getinter() rely on the server being checked
to decide what check frequency to use, instead of relying on the check
being configured. So let's get rid of SRV_CHECKED and SRV_AGENT_CHECKED
and only use the check's states instead.
At the moment, health checks and agent checks are tied : no agent
check is emitted if no health check is enabled. Other parameters
are considered in the condition for letting checks run. It will
help us selectively enable checks (agent and regular checks) to be
know whether they're enabled/disabled and configured or not. Now
we can already emit an error when trying to enable an unconfigured
agent.
The flag CHK_STATE_RUNNING is misleading as one may believe it means
the state is enabled (just like SRV_RUNNING). Let's rename these two
flags CHK_ST_INPROGRESS and CHK_ST_DISABLED.
We used to have up to 4 sets of flags which were almost all exclusive
to report a check result. And the names were inherited from the old
server states, adding to the confusion. Let's replace that with an
enum handling only the possible combinations :
SRV_CHK_UNKNOWN => CHK_RES_UNKNOWN
SRV_CHK_FAILED => CHK_RES_FAILED
SRV_CHK_PASSED => CHK_RES_PASSED
SRV_CHK_PASSED | SRV_CHK_DISABLE => CHK_RES_CONDPASS
After the move of checks from servers to autonomous checks, we need a
massive cleanup and reordering as it's becoming increasingly difficult
to find the definitions of types and enums.
Nothing was changed, blocks were just moved.
Server tracking uses the same "tracknext" list for servers tracking
another one and for the servers being tracked. This caused an issue
which was fixed by commit f39c71c ([CRITICAL] fix server state tracking:
it was O(n!) instead of O(n)), consisting in ensuring that a server is
being checked before walking down the list, so that we don't propagate
the up/down information via servers being part of the track chain.
But the root cause is the fact that all servers share the same list.
The correct solution consists in having a list head for the tracked
servers and a list of next tracking servers. This simplifies the
propagation logic, especially for the case where status changes might
be passed to individual servers via the CLI.
The get_trash_chunk() function is convenient and is sometimes used even
to get a temporary string. While the chunk is initialized, the string
may contain some random garbage that some code might retrieve if it uses
chunk->str directly without checking ->len. This is what happened in checks
after commit 25e2ab5 (MEDIUM: checks: centralize error reporting). It's not
easy to guess it at first so better pre-initialize the string with a zero.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore unwanted function returns in
debug code with gcc. Now even when you try to work around it, it suggests a
way to write your code differently. For example :
src/frontend.c:187:65: warning: if statement has empty body [-Wempty-body]
if (write(1, trash.str, trash.len) < 0) /* shut gcc warning */;
^
src/frontend.c:187:65: note: put the semicolon on a separate line to silence this warning
1 warning generated.
This is totally unacceptable, this code already had to be written this way
to shut it up in earlier versions. And now it comments the form ? What's the
purpose of the C language if you can't write anymore the code that does what
you want ?
Emeric proposed to just keep a global variable to drain such useless results
so that gcc stops complaining all the time it believes people who write code
are monkeys. The solution is acceptable because the useless assignment is done
only in debug code so it will not impact performance. This patch implements
this, until gcc becomes even "smarter" to detect that we tried to cheat.
Some systems use different types for tv_sec/tv_usec, some are
signed others not. From time to time new warnings are reported
about implicit casts being done.
This patch ensures that TV_ETERNITY is cast to the appropriate
type in assignments and conversions.
The ACL expression parser recently became a huge mess like a
spaghetti plate. The keyword is looked up at the beginning, then
sample fetches are processed, then an expression is initialized,
then arguments and converters are parsed but only if the keyword
was an ACL one, etc... Lots of "if" and redundant variables
everywhere making it hard to read and follow.
Let's move the args/conv parsing just after the keyword lookup.
At least now it's consistent that when we leave this if/else
statement, we have a sample expression initialized and full
parsed wherever the elements came from.
Just like for the last commit, we need to fix the ACL argument parser so
that it lets the lower layer do the job of referencing unresolved arguments
and correctly report the type of missing arguments.
Some errors may be reported about missing mandatory arguments when some
sample fetch arguments are marked as mandatory and implicit (eg: proxy
names such as in table_cnt or be_conn).
In practice the argument parser already handles all the situations very
well, it's just that the sample fetch parser want to go beyond its role
and starts some controls that it should not do. Simply removing these
useless controls lets make_arg_list() create the correct argument types
when such types are encountered.
This regression was introduced by the recent use of sample_parse_expr()
in ACLs which makes use of its own argument parser, while previously
the arguments were parsed in the ACL function itself. No backport is
needed.
Doing so ensures that we're consistent between all the functions in the whole
chain. This is important so that we can extract the argument parsing from this
function.
This patch adds map manipulation commands to the socket interface.
add map <map> <key> <value>
Add the value <value> in the map <map>, at the entry corresponding to
the key <key>. This command does not verify if the entry already
exists.
clear map <map>
Remove entries from the map <map>
del map <map> <key>
Delete all the map entries corresponding to the <key> value in the map
<map>.
set map <map> <key> <value>
Modify the value corresponding to each key <key> in a map <map>. The
new value is <value>.
show map [<map>]
Dump info about map converters. Without argument, the list of all
available maps are returned. If a <map> is specified, is content is
dumped.
We'll need to pass patterns on the CLI for lookups. Till now there was no
need for a backslash, so it's still time to support them just like in the
config file.
With this patch, patterns can be compiled for two modes :
- match
- lookup
The match mode is used for example in ACLs or maps. The lookup mode
is used to lookup a key for pattern maintenance. For example, looking
up a network is different from looking up one address belonging to
this network.
A special case is made for regex. In lookup mode they return the input
regex string and do not compile the regex.
Now, the pat_parse_*() functions parses the incoming data. The input
"pattern" struct can be preallocated. If the parser needs to add some
buffers, it allocates memory.
The function pattern_register() runs the call to the parser, process
the key indexation and associate the "sample_storage" used by maps.
