When the lua task finished before the httpclient that are associated to
it, there is a risk that the httpclient try to task_wakeup() the lua
task which does not exist anymore.
To fix this issue the httpclient used in a lua task are stored in a
list, and the httpclient are destroyed at the end of the lua task.
Must be backported in 2.5 and 2.6.
The HTTPclient callback req_payload callback is set when a request payload
must be streamed. In the lua, this callback is set when a body is passed as
argument in one of httpclient functions (head/get/post/put/delete). However,
there is no reason to set it if body string is empty.
This patch is related to the issue #1898. It may be backported as far as
2.5.
In cd341d531, I added a FIXME comment because I noticed a
lua_pushvalue with 0 index, whereas lua doc states that 0 is never
an acceptable index.
After reviewing and testing the hlua_applet_http_send_response() code,
it turns out that this pushvalue is not even needed.
So it's safer to remove it as it could lead to undefined
behavior (since it is not supported by Lua API) and it grows lua stack
by 1 for no reason.
No backport needed.
In hlua code, we mark every function that may longjump using
MAY_LJMP macro so it's easier to identify them by reading the code.
However, some luaL_checktypes() were performed without the MAY_LJMP.
According to lua doc:
Functions called luaL_check* always raise an error if
the check is not satisfied.
-> Adding the missing MAY_LJMP for those luaLchecktypes() calls.
No backport needed.
Channel.insert(channel, string, [,offset]):
When no offset is provided, hlua_channel_insert_data() inserts
string at the end of incoming data.
This behavior conflicts with the documentation that explicitly says
that the default behavior is to insert the string in front of incoming data.
This patch fixes hlua_channel_insert_data() behavior so that it fully
complies with the documentation.
Thanks to Smackd0wn for noticing it.
This could be backported to 2.6 and 2.5
In hlua_lua2arg_check(), we allow for the first argument to not be
provided, if it has a type we know, this is true for frontend, backend,
and stick table. However, the stick table code was changed. It used
to be deduced from the proxy, but it is now directly provided in struct
args. So setting the proxy there no longer work, and we have to
explicitely set the stick table.
Not doing so will lead the code do use the proxy pointer as a stick
table pointer, which will likely cause crashes.
This should be backported up to 2.0.
In hlua_lua2arg_check(), on failure, before calling free_argp(), make
sure to always mark the failed argument as ARGT_STOP. We only want to
free argument prior to that point, because we did not allocate the
strings after this one, and so we don't want to free them.
This should be backported up to 2.2.
In function hlua_applet_http_send_response(), a pushvalue
is performed with index '0'.
But according to lua doc (https://www.lua.org/manual/5.3/manual.html#4.3):
"Note that 0 is never an acceptable index".
Adding a FIXME comment near to the pushvalue operation
so that this can get some chance to be reviewed later.
No backport needed.
When providing multiple optional arguments with lua-load or
lua-load-per-thread directives, arguments where pushed 1 by 1
to the stack using lua_pushstring() without checking if the stack
could handle it.
This could easily lead to program crash when providing too much
arguments. I can easily reproduce the crash starting from ~50 arguments.
Calling lua_checkstack() before pushing to the stack fixes the crash:
According to lua.org, lua_checkstack() does some housekeeping and
allow the stack to be expanded as long as some memory is available
and the hard limit isn't reached.
When no memory is available to expand the stack or the limit is reached,
lua_checkstacks returns an error: in this case we force hlua_load_state()
to return a meaningfull error instead of crashing.
In practice though, cfgparse complains about too many words
way before such event may occur on a normal system.
TLDR: the ~50 arguments limitation is not an issue anymore.
No backport needed, except if 'MINOR: hlua: Allow argument on
lua-lod(-per-thread) directives' (ae6b568) is backported.
Calling the function with an offset when "offset + len" was superior or equal
to the targeted blk length caused 'v' value to be improperly set.
And because 'v' is directly provided to htx_replace_blk_value(), blk consistency was compromised.
(It seems that blk was overrunning in htx_replace_blk_value() due to
this and header data was overwritten in this case).
This patch adds the missing checks to make the function behave as
expected when offset is set and offset+len is greater or equals to the targeted blk length.
Some comments were added to the function as well.
It may be backported to 2.6 and 2.5
hlua_http_msg_insert_data() function is called upon
HTTPMessage.insert() method from lua script.
This function did not work properly for multiple reasons:
- An incorrect argument check was performed and prevented the user
from providing optional offset argument.
- Input and output variables were inverted
and offset was not handled properly. The same bug
was also fixed in hlua_http_msg_del_data(), see:
'BUG/MINOR: hlua: fixing hlua_http_msg_del_data behavior'
The function now behaves as described in the documentation.
This could be backported to 2.6 and 2.5.
GH issue #1885 reported that HTTPMessage.remove() did not
work as expected.
It turns out that underlying hlua_http_msg_del_data() function
was not working properly due to input / output inversion as well
as incorrect user offset handling.
This patch fixes it so that the behavior is the one described in
the documentation.
This could be backported to 2.6 and 2.5.
As pointed out by chipitsine in GH #1879, coverity complains
about a sizeof with char ** type where it should be char *.
This was introduced in 'MINOR: hlua: Allow argument on
lua-lod(-per-thread) directives' (ae6b568)
Luckily this had no effect so far because on most platforms
sizeof(char **) == sizeof(char *), but this can not be safely
assumed for portability reasons.
The fix simply changes the argument to sizeof so that it refers to
'*per_thread_load[len]' instead of 'per_thread_load[len]'.
No backport needed.
Because memprintf return an error to the caller and not on screen.
the function which perform display of message on the right output
is in charge of adding \n if it is necessary.
This patch may be backported.
applet:getline() and applet:receive() functions for HTTP applets must rely
on the channel flags to detect the end of the message and not on HTX
flags. It means CF_EOI must be used instead of HTX_FL_EOM.
It is important because the HTX flag is transient. Because there is no flag
on HTTP applets to save the info, it is not reliable. However CF_EOI once
set is never removed. So it is safer to rely on it. Otherwise, the call to
these functions hang.
This patch must be backported as far as 2.4.
The tasks currently rely on a mask but do not have an assigned thread ID,
contrary to tasklets. However, in practice they're either running on a
single thread or on any thread, so that it will be worth simplifying all
this in order to ease the transition to the thread groups.
This patch introduces a "tid" field in the task struct, that's either
the number of the thread the task is attached to, or a negative value
if the task is not bound to a thread, (i.e. its mask is all_threads_mask).
The new ID is only set and updated but not used yet.
This function may be used to try to show where some Lua code is currently
being executed. It tries hard to detect the initialization phase, both for
the global and the per-thread states, and for runtime states. This intends
to be used by error handlers to provide the users with indications about
what Lua code was being executed when the error triggered.
Calling hlua_traceback() sometimes reports empty entries looking like:
[C]: ?
These ones correspond to certain internal C functions of the Lua library,
but they do not provide any information and even complicate the
interpretation of the dump. Better just skip them.
In 1.9-dev1, commit 5bc9972ed ("BUG/MINOR: lua/threads: Make lua's tasks
sticky to the current thread") to detect unconfigured Lua tasks that could
run on any thread, by comparing their thread mask with MAX_THREADS_MASK.
The proper way to do it is to check for at least 2 threads in their mask
in fact. This is more reliable and allows to get rid of MAX_THREADS_MASK
there.
There's no more reason for keepin the code and definitions in conn_stream,
let's move all that to stconn. The alphabetical ordering of include files
was adjusted.
This file contains all the stream-connector functions that are specific
to application layers of type stream. So let's name it accordingly so
that it's easier to figure what's located there.
The alphabetical ordering of include files was preserved.
An equivalent applet_need_more_data() was added as well since that function
is mostly used from applet code. It makes it much clearer that the applet
is waiting for data from the stream layer.
The analysis of cs_rx_endp_more() showed that the purpose is for a stream
endpoint to inform the connector that it's ready to deliver more data to
that one, and conversely cs_rx_endp_done() that it's done delivering data
so it should not be bothered again for this.
This was modified two ways:
- the operation is no longer performed on the connector but on the
endpoint so that there is no more doubt when reading applet code
about what this rx refers to; it's the endpoint that has more or
no more data.
- an applet implementation is also provided and mostly used from
applet code since it saves the caller from having to access the
endpoint descriptor.
It's visible that the flag ought to be inverted because some places
have to set it by default for no reason.
The new name mor eclearly indicates that a stream connector cannot make
any more progress because it needs room in the channel buffer, or that
it may be unblocked because the buffer now has more room available. The
testing function is sc_waiting_room(). This is mostly used by applets.
Note that the flags will change soon.
This flag is exclusively used when a front applet needs to wait for the
other side to connect (or fail to). Let's give it a more explicit name
and remove the ambiguous function that was used only once.
This also ensures we will not risk to set it back on a new endpoint
after cs_reset_endp() via SE_FL_APP_MASK, because the flag being
specific to the endpoint only and not to the connector, we don't
want to preserve it when replacing the endpoint.
These functions return the app-layer associated with an stconn, which
is a check, a stream or a stream's task. They're used a lot to access
channels, flags and for waking up tasks. Let's just name them
appropriately for the stream connector.
We're starting to propagate the stream connector's new name through the
API. Most call places of these functions that retrieve the channel or its
buffer are in applets. The local variable names are not changed in order
to keep the changes small and reviewable. There were ~92 uses of cs_ic(),
~96 of cs_oc() (due to co_get*() being less factorizable than ci_put*),
and ~5 accesses to the buffer itself.
This also follows the natural naming. There are roughly 238 changes, all
totally trivial. conn_stream-t.h has become completely void of any
"conn_stream" related stuff now (except its name).
This renames the "struct conn_stream" to "struct stconn" and updates
the descriptions in all comments (and the rare help descriptions) to
"stream connector" or "connector". This touches a lot of files but
the change is minimal. The local variables were not even renamed, so
there's still a lot of "cs" everywhere.
Now at least it makes it obvious that it's the stream endpoint descriptor
and not an endpoint. There were few changes thanks to the previous refactor
of the flags.
This changes all main uses of endp->flags to the se_fl_*() equivalent
by applying coccinelle script endp_flags.cocci. The se_fl_*() functions
themselves were manually excluded from the change, of course.
Note: 144 locations were touched, manually reviewed and found to be OK.
The script was applied with all includes:
spatch --in-place --recursive-includes -I include --sp-file $script $files
Fix a typo that lead to using the wrong pointer when loading a
certificate, which lead to always using the pem loader for every
parameeter.
Use the cert_ext->load() ptr instead of cert_exts->load() which was the
first element of the cert_exts[] array.
Enhance the error message with the field name.
Should fix issue #1716
In the same way than for the tasks, the applets api was changed to be able
to start a new appctx on a thread subset. For now the feature is
disabled. Only appctx_new_here() is working. But it will be possible to
start an appctx on a specific thread or a subset via a mask.
A .init callback function is defined for the update_applet applet. This
function finishes the appctx startup by calling appctx_finalize_startup()
and its handles the stream customization.
