In order to make pool usage more convenient, let pool_free2()
support NULL pointers by doing nothing, just like the standard
free(3) call does.
The various call places have been updated to remove the now
useless checks.
It should be stated as a rule that a C file should never
include types/xxx.h when proto/xxx.h exists, as it gives
less exposure to declaration conflicts (one of which was
caught and fixed here) and it complicates the file headers
for nothing.
Only types/global.h, types/capture.h and types/polling.h
have been found to be valid includes from C files.
This is the first attempt at moving all internal parts from
using struct timeval to integer ticks. Those provides simpler
and faster code due to simplified operations, and this change
also saved about 64 bytes per session.
A new header file has been added : include/common/ticks.h.
It is possible that some functions should finally not be inlined
because they're used quite a lot (eg: tick_first, tick_add_ifset
and tick_is_expired). More measurements are required in order to
decide whether this is interesting or not.
Some function and variable names are still subject to change for
a better overall logics.
The ultree code has been removed in favor of a simpler and
cleaner ebtree implementation. The eternity queue does not
need to exist anymore, and the pool_tree64 has been removed.
The ebtree node is stored in the task itself. The qlist list
header is still used by the run-queue, but will be able to
disappear once the run-queue uses ebtree too.
New functions implemented:
- deinit_pollers: called at the end of deinit())
- prune_acl: called via list_for_each_entry_safe
Add missing pool_destroy2 calls:
- p->hdr_idx_pool
- pool2_tree64
Implement all task stopping:
- health-check: needs new "struct task" in the struct server
- queue processing: queue_mgt
- appsess_refresh: appsession_refresh

Still not perfect but significant improvement.
src/chtbl.c, src/hashpjw.c and src/list.c are distributed under
an obscure license. While Aleks and I believe that this license
is OK for haproxy, other people think it is not compatible with
the GPL.
Whether it is or not is not the problem. The fact that it rises
a doubt is sufficient for this problem to be addressed. Arnaud
Cornet rewrote the unclear parts with clean GPLv2 and LGPL code.
The hash algorithm has changed too and the code has been slightly
simplified in the process. A lot of care has been taken in order
to respect the original API as much as possible, including the
LGPL for the exportable parts.
The new code has not been thoroughly tested but it looks OK now.
Also during this process, a bug was found in appsession_refresh().
It would not automatically requeue the task in the queue, so the
old sessions would not vanish.
The timeout functions were difficult to manipulate because they were
rounding results to the millisecond. Thus, it was difficult to compare
and to check what expired and what did not. Also, the comparison
functions were heavy with multiplies and divides by 1000. Now, all
timeouts are stored in timevals, reducing the number of operations
for updates and leading to cleaner and more efficient code.
The rbtree-based wait queue consumes a lot of CPU. Use the ul2tree
instead. Lots of cleanups and code reorganizations made it possible
to reduce the task struct and simplify the code a bit.
This patch from Sin Yu makes use of an rbtree for the wait queue,
which will solve the slowdown problem encountered when timeouts
are heterogenous in the configuration. The next step will be to
turn maintain_proxies() into a per-proxy task so that we won't
have to scan them all after each poll() loop.
The files are now stored under :
- include/haproxy for the generic includes
- include/types.h for the structures needed within prototypes
- include/proto.h for function prototypes and inline functions
- src/*.c for the C files
Most include files are now covered by LGPL. A last move still needs
to be done to put inline functions under GPL and not LGPL.
Version has been set to 1.3.0 in the code but some control still
needs to be done before releasing.
