We used to support both RTSP and HTTP protocol version names with and
without accept-invalid-http-request, but since this is based on the
characters themselves, any protocol made of chars {0-9/.HPRST} was
possible and not others. Now that such non-standard protocols are
restricted to accept-invalid-http-request, there's no reason for not
allowing other letters. With this patch, characters {0-9./A-Z} are
permitted when the option is set.

- CI: determine actual OpenSSL version dynamically
When loading providers with 'ssl-provider' global options, this
ssl-provider-path option can be used to set the search path that is to
be used by openssl. It behaves the same way as the OPENSSL_MODULES
environment variable.
When HAProxy is linked to an OpenSSLv3 library, this option can be used
to load a provider during init. You can specify multiple ssl-provider
options, which will be loaded in the order they appear. This does not
prevent OpenSSL from parsing its own configuration file in which some
other providers might be specified.
A linked list of the providers loaded from the configuration file is
kept so that all those providers can be unloaded during cleanup. The
providers loaded directly by OpenSSL will be freed by OpenSSL.
This option can be used to define a default property query used when
fetching algorithms in OpenSSL providers. It follows the format
described in https://www.openssl.org/docs/man3.0/man7/property.html.
It is only available when haproxy is built with SSL support and linked
to OpenSSLv3 libraries.
The "http-restrict-req-hdr-names" option can now be set to restrict allowed
characters in the request header names to the "[a-zA-Z0-9-]" charset.
Idea of this option is to not send header names with non-alphanumeric or
hyphen character. It is especially important for FastCGI application because
all those characters are converted to underscore. For instance,
"X-Forwarded-For" and "X_Forwarded_For" are both converted to
"HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR". So, header names can be mixed up by FastCGI
applications. And some HAProxy rules may be bypassed by mangling header
names. In addition, some non-HTTP compliant servers may incorrectly handle
requests when header names contain characters ouside the "[a-zA-Z0-9-]"
charset.
When this option is set, the policy must be specify:
* preserve: It disables the filtering. It is the default mode for HTTP
proxies with no FastCGI application configured.
* delete: It removes request headers with a name containing a character
outside the "[a-zA-Z0-9-]" charset. It is the default mode for
HTTP backends with a configured FastCGI application.
* reject: It rejects the request with a 403-Forbidden response if it
contains a header name with a character outside the
"[a-zA-Z0-9-]" charset.
The option is evaluated per-proxy and after http-request rules evaluation.
This patch may be backported to avoid any secuirty issue with FastCGI
application (so as far as 2.2).

Valerio Pachera explained [1] that external checks would benefit from
having a variable indicating if SSL is being used or not on the server
being checked, and the discussion derived to also indicating the protocol
in use.
This patch adds two environment variables for external checks:
- HAPROXY_SERVER_SSL: equals "0" when SSL is not used, "1" when it is
- HAPROXY_SERVER_PROTO: contains one of the following words to describe
the protocol used with this server:
- "cli": the haproxy CLI. Normally not seen
- "syslog": this is a syslog TCP server
- "peers": this is a peers TCP server
- "h1": this is an HTTP/1.x server
- "h2": this is an HTTP/2 server
- "tcp": this is any other TCP server
The patch is very simple, and may be backported to recent versions if
needed. This closes github issue #1692.
[1] https://www.mail-archive.com/haproxy@formilux.org/msg42233.html
Since the 2.5, for security reason, HTTP/1.0 GET/HEAD/DELETE requests with a
payload are rejected (See e136bd12a "MEDIUM: mux-h1: Reject HTTP/1.0
GET/HEAD/DELETE requests with a payload" for details). However it may be an
issue for old clients.
To avoid any compatibility issue with such clients,
"h1-accept-payload-with-any-method" global option was added. It must only be
set if there is a good reason to do so because it may lead to a request
smuggling attack on some servers or intermediaries.
This patch should solve the issue #1691. it may be backported to 2.5.
It could be usefull to set a ASCII secret which could be used for different
usages. For instance, it will be used to derive QUIC stateless reset tokens.

When an HTTP header rewrite failure is triggered, and 500-internal-error
response is returned. A "PR" termination state is logged if the error
occurred on the request and "PH" if the error is reported for the response.
The documentation was updated accordingly.

Low footprint client machines may not have enough memory to download a
complete 16KB TLS record at once. With the new option the maximum
record size can be defined on the server side.
Note: Before limiting the the record size on the server side, a client should
consider using the TLS Maximum Fragment Length Negotiation Extension defined
in RFC6066.
This patch fixes GitHub issue #1679.
If the "close-spread-time" option is set to "infinite", active
connection closing during a soft-stop can be disabled. The 'connection:
close' header or the GOAWAY frame will not be added anymore to the
server's response and active connections will only be closed once the
clients disconnect. Idle connections will not be closed all at once when
the soft-stop starts anymore, and each idle connection will follow its
own timeout based on the multiple timeouts set in the configuration (as
is the case during regular execution).
This feature request was described in GitHub issue #1614.
This patch should be backported to 2.5. It depends on 'MEDIUM: global:
Add a "close-spread-time" option to spread soft-stop on time window'.
On some systems, the hard limit for ulimit -n may be huge, in the order
of 1 billion, and using this to automatically compute maxconn doesn't
work as it requires way too much memory. Users tend to hard-code maxconn
but that's not convenient to manage deployments on heterogenous systems,
nor when porting configs to developers' machines. The ulimit-n parameter
doesn't work either because it forces the limit. What most users seem to
want (and it makes sense) is to respect the system imposed limits up to
a certain value and cap this value. This is exactly what fd-hard-limit
does.
This addresses github issue #1622.
Almost all of our hash-based LB algorithms are implemented as special
cases of something that can now be achieved using sample expressions,
and some of them have adopted some options to adapt their behavior in
ways that could also be achieved using converters.
There are users who want to hash other parameters that are combined
into variables, and who set headers from these values and use
"balance hdr(name)" for this.
Instead of constantly implementing specific options and having users
hack around when they want a real hash, let's implement a native hash
mode that applies to a standard sample expression. This way, any
fetchable element (including variables) may be used to construct the
hash, even modified by any converter if desired.

- DOC: remove my name from the config doc
I was surprised to notice that my name was still present as the author
at the top of the config manual. It turns out that this line and a few
other ones in this file remained unchanged since commit 6a06a40501 that
added this doc 15 years ago! It's long been time to get rid of this!
This adds a call to function <fct> to the list of functions to be called at
the step just before the configuration validity checks. This is useful when you
need to create things like it would have been done during the configuration
parsing and where the initialization should continue in the configuration
check.
It could be used for example to generate a proxy with multiple servers using
the configuration parser itself. At this step the trash buffers are allocated.
Threads are not yet started so no protection is required. The function is
expected to return non-zero on success, or zero on failure. A failure will make
the process emit a succinct error message and immediately exit.
Starting from OpenSSLv3, providers are at the core of cryptography
functions. Depending on the provider used, the way the SSL
functionalities work could change. This new 'show ssl providers' CLI
command allows to show what providers were loaded by the SSL library.
This is required because the provider configuration is exclusively done
in the OpenSSL configuration file (/usr/local/ssl/openssl.cnf for
instance).
A new line is also added to the 'haproxy -vv' output containing the same
information.
DHE ciphers do not present a security risk if the key is big enough but
they are slow and mostly obsoleted by ECDHE. This patch removes any
default DH parameters. This will effectively disable all DHE ciphers
unless a global ssl-dh-param-file is defined, or
tune.ssl.default-dh-param is set, or a frontend has DH parameters
included in its PEM certificate. In this latter case, only the frontends
that have DH parameters will have DHE ciphers enabled.
Adding explicitely a DHE ciphers in a "bind" line will not be enough to
actually enable DHE. We would still need to know which DH parameters to
use so one of the three conditions described above must be met.
This request was described in GitHub issue #1604.

- MEDIUM: global: Add a "close-spread-time" option to spread soft-stop on time window
The new 'close-spread-time' global option can be used to spread idle and
active HTTP connction closing after a SIGUSR1 signal is received. This
allows to limit bursts of reconnections when too many idle connections
are closed at once. Indeed, without this new mechanism, in case of
soft-stop, all the idle connections would be closed at once (after the
grace period is over), and all active HTTP connections would be closed
by appending a "Connection: close" header to the next response that goes
over it (or via a GOAWAY frame in case of HTTP2).
This patch adds the support of this new option for HTTP as well as HTTP2
connections. It works differently on active and idle connections.
On active connections, instead of sending systematically the GOAWAY
frame or adding the 'Connection: close' header like before once the
soft-stop has started, a random based on the remainder of the close
window is calculated, and depending on its result we could decide to
keep the connection alive. The random will be recalculated for any
subsequent request/response on this connection so the GOAWAY will still
end up being sent, but we might wait a few more round trips. This will
ensure that goaways are distributed along a longer time window than
before.
On idle connections, a random factor is used when determining the expire
field of the connection's task, which should naturally spread connection
closings on the time window (see h2c_update_timeout).
This feature request was described in GitHub issue #1614.
This patch should be backported to 2.5. It depends on "BUG/MEDIUM:
mux-h2: make use of http-request and keep-alive timeouts" which
refactorized the timeout management of HTTP2 connections.
This new converter is similar to the concat converter and can be used to
build new variables made of a succession of other variables but the main
difference is that it does the checks if adding a delimiter makes sense as
wouldn't be the case if e.g the current input sample is empty. That
situation would require 2 separate rules using concat converter where the
first rule would have to check if the current sample string is empty before
adding a delimiter. This resolves GitHub Issue #1621.
It's difficult from outside haproxy to detect the supported keywords
and syntax. Interestingly, many of our modern keywords are enumerated
since they're registered from constructors, so it's not very hard to
enumerate most of them.
This patch creates some basic infrastructure to support dumping existing
keywords from different classes on stdout. The format will differ depending
on the classes, but the idea is that the output could easily be passed to
a script that generates some simple syntax highlighting rules, completion
rules for editors, syntax checkers or config parsers.
The principle chosen here is that if "-dK" is passed on the command-line,
at the end of the parsing the registered keywords will be dumped for the
requested classes passed after "-dK". Special name "help" will show known
classes, while "all" will execute all of them. The reason for doing that
after the end of the config processor is that it will also enumerate
internally-generated keywords, Lua or even those loaded from external
code (e.g. if an add-on is loaded using LD_PRELOAD). A typical way to
call this with a valid config would be:
./haproxy -dKall -q -c -f /path/to/config
If there's no config available, feeding /dev/null will also do the job,
though it will not be able to detect dynamically created keywords, of
course.
This patch also updates the management doc.
For now nothing but the help is listed, various subsystems will follow
in subsequent patches.
Reverts 75df9d7a7 ("DOC: explain HTTP2 timeout behavior") since H2
connections now respect "timeout http-keep-alive".

and keep-alive timeouts") is backported, this DOC change needs to
be backported along with it.

Dynamic servers feature is now judged to be stable enough. Remove the
experimental-mode requirement for "add/del server" commands. This should
facilitate dynamic servers adoption.
For server checks, SSL and PROXY is automatically inherited from the
server settings if no specific check port is specified. Change this
behavior for dynamic servers : explicit "check-ssl"/"check-send-proxy"
are required for them.
Without this change, it is impossible to add a dynamic server with
SSL/PROXY settings and checks without, if the check port is not
explicit. This is because "no-check-ssl"/"no-check-send-proxy" keywords
are not available for dynamic servers.
This change respects the principle that dynamic servers on the CLI
should not reuse the same shortcuts used during the config file parsing.
Mostly because we expect this feature to be manipulated by automated
tools, contrary to the config file which should aim to be the shortest
possible for human readability.
Update the documentation of the "check" keyword to reflect this change.
These two sample fetch methods report respectively the file name and the
line number where was located the last rule that was final. This is aimed
at being used on log-format lines to help admins figure what rule in the
configuration gave a final verdict, and help understand the condition
that led to the action.
For example, it's now possible to log the last matched rule by adding
this to the log-format:
... lr=%[last_rule_file]:%[last_rule_line]
A regtest is provided to test various combinations of final rules, some
even on top of each other from different rulesets.
The distcc* sample fetch methods were surprisingly located within the
"internal state" section, while they in fact depend on L6 contents.
This can be backported to all versions where they appear.
