It is possible that some arguments within the configuration line are not
specified; that is, they are set to a blank string.
For example:
keyword '' arg_2
In that case the content of the args field will be like this:
args[0]: 'keyword'
args[1]: NULL pointer
args[2]: 'arg_2'
args[3 .. MAX_LINE_ARGS): NULL pointers
The previous way of calculating the number of arguments (as soon as a
null pointer is encountered) could not place an argument on an empty
string.
All of the above is essential for passing the OpenTracing context via
the HTTP headers (keyword 'inject'), where one of the arguments is the
context name prefix. This way we can set an empty prefix, which is very
useful if we get context from some other process that can't add a prefix
to that data; or we want to pass the context to some process that cannot
handle the prefix of that data.
In commit 9533a7038 new parameters have been added to the declaration
of function parse_logsrv().
This patch should be backported to all branches where the OpenTracing
filter is located.
This patch solves the problem reported in github issue #1204, where the
OpenTracing filter cannot communicate with the selected tracer if HAProxy
is run in daemon mode. The author of the reported issue uses Zipkin
tracer, while in this example Jaeger tracer is used (see gdb output below).
The problem is that the OpenTracing library is initialized before HAProxy
initialize the daemon mode. Establishing this mode kills the OpenTracing
thread, after which the correct operation of the OpenTracing filter is no
longer possible. Also, HAProxy crashes on deinitialization of the
OpenTracing library.
The initialization of the OpenTracing library has been moved from the
flt_ot_init() function (which is started before switching the HAProxy to
daemon mode) to the flt_ot_init_per_thread() function (which is run after
switching the HAProxy to daemon mode).

This patch should be backported to all branches where the OpenTracing
filter is located.
This one is the last optional module to build with haproxy, so let's move
it to addons/. It was renamed to "ot" as it was the only one whose USE_*
option did not match the directory name, now this is consistent.
Few changes were required, only the Makefile, and doc were adjusted, as
the directory was already self-contained and relocatable.
Both the source file and the dummy library are now at the same place.
Maybe the build howto could be moved there as well to make things even
cleaner.
The Makefile, MAINTAINERS, doc, and vtest matrix were updated.
Both the source file and the dummy library are now at the same place.
Maybe the build howto could be moved there as well to make things even

The Makefile, MAINTAINERS, doc, github build matrix, coverity checks
and travis CI's build were updated.
Now it's much cleaner, both 51d.c and the dummy library live together and
are easier to spot and maintain. The build howto probably ought to be moved
there as well. Makefile, docs and MAINTAINERS were updated, as well as
the github CI's build matrix, travis CI's, and coverity checks.
Let's start to better organize the addons by moving promex there (and
with an easier directory name). The makefile and maintainers files were
updated, as well as the CI's build matrix.
