This commit introduces HTTP compression using the zlib library.
http_response_forward_body has been modified to call the compression
functions.
This feature includes 3 algorithms: identity, gzip and deflate:
* identity: this is mostly for debugging, and it was useful for
developping the compression feature. With Content-Length in input, it
is making each chunk with the data available in the current buffer.
With chunks in input, it is rechunking, the output chunks will be
bigger or smaller depending of the size of the input chunk and the
size of the buffer. Identity does not apply any change on data.
* gzip: same as identity, but applying a gzip compression. The data
are deflated using the Z_NO_FLUSH flag in zlib. When there is no more
data in the input buffer, it flushes the data in the output buffer
(Z_SYNC_FLUSH). At the end of data, when it receives the last chunk in
input, or when there is no more data to read, it writes the end of
data with Z_FINISH and the ending chunk.
* deflate: same as gzip, but with deflate algorithm and zlib format.
Note that this algorithm has ambiguous support on many browsers and
no support at all from recent ones. It is strongly recommended not
to use it for anything else than experimentation.
You can't choose the compression ratio at the moment, it will be set to
Z_BEST_SPEED (1), as tests have shown very little benefit in terms of
compression ration when going above for HTML contents, at the cost of
a massive CPU impact.
Compression will be activated depending of the Accept-Encoding request
header. With identity, it does not take care of that header.
To build HAProxy with zlib support, use USE_ZLIB=1 in the make
parameters.

Hank A. Paulson suggested to add CPU=native to optimize the code for
the build machine. This makes sense in a lot of situations. Since it
is often possible to have both 32 and 64 bits supported on recent
systems, the ARCH=32 and ARCH=64 build options were also added.
Patrick Mézard reported that it was a bit awkward to have the CONTRIB
and contrib entries in the source archive since those can conflict on
case-insensitive file systems. That made a good opportunity to refresh
the README file and to remove that old outdated file.
After considering various possibilities, we compiled haproxy under cygwin.
Attached is an updated full diff that also has the TARGET=cygwin documented.
The whole thing compiles and installs with this diff only.
In cygwin 1.7 (now in beta), there is apparently support for ipv6. Cygwin
1.5 (later versions, anyway) already includes some support in the form of a
define USE_IPV6. When defined, it declares the sockaddr_in6 struct and
possibly other things. The above definition AF_INET6=23 is taken from
their /usr/include/socket.h file (where it is #if 0'd out).
We are running into a socket limit. It appears that Cygwin (running on
Windows 2003 Server) will only allow us to set ulimit -n (maximum open
files) to 3200, which means we're a little short of 1600 connections.
The limit of 3200 is an internal Cygwin limit. Perhaps they can raise it in
the future. Using the nbproc option, I was able to bring up 10 servers. It
seems to me that they were able to handle over 2000 connections (even though
each had maxconn 1500 set, and the hard Cygwin fd limit).
When trying to build a 32-bit binary on a 64-bit platform, we generally
need to pass "-m32" to gcc, which is not convenient with current makefile.
Note that this option requires gcc >= 3.
In order to ease parameter passing, a new ARCH= makefile option has been
added. If it receives a target architecture, according "-m32"/"-m64" and
"-march=xxxx" will be passed to gcc. Only the generic makefile has been
changed to support this option right now as the need only appeared on Linux.
The spec file now makes use of this option so that rpmbuild can automatically
build with the proper architecture.
