The wireshark dissector could only be build within wireshark, which
means maintaining a wireshark binary just for this dissector. It was not
really convenient to update wireshark because of this.
This patch converts the dissector into a .so plugin which is built with
the .h found in distributions instead of the whole wireshark sources.
The url_decode() function used by the url_dec converter and a few other
call points is ambiguous on its processing of the '+' character which
itself isn't stable in the spec. This one belongs to the reserved
characters for the query string but not for the path nor the scheme,
in which it must be left as-is. It's only in argument strings that
follow the application/x-www-form-urlencoded encoding that it must be
turned into a space, that is, in query strings and POST arguments.
The problem is that the function is used to process full URLs and
paths in various configs, and to process query strings from the stats
page for example.
This patch updates the function to differentiate the situation where
it's parsing a path and a query string. A new argument indicates if a
query string should be assumed, otherwise it's only assumed after seeing
a question mark.
The various locations in the code making use of this function were
updated to take care of this (most call places were using it to decode
POST arguments).
The url_dec converter is usually called on path or url samples, so it
needs to remain compatible with this and will default to parsing a path
and turning the '+' to a space only after a question mark. However in
situations where it would explicitly be extracted from a POST or a
query string, it now becomes possible to enforce the decoding by passing
a non-null value in argument.
It seems to be what was reported in issue #585. This fix may be
backported to older stable releases.
Ryan O'Hara reported that haproxy breaks on fedora-32 using gcc-10
(pre-release). It turns out that constructs such as:
while (item != head) {
item = LIST_ELEM(item.n);
}
loop forever, never matching <item> to <head> despite a printf there
showing them equal. In practice the problem is that the LIST_ELEM()
macro is wrong, it assigns the subtract of two pointers (an integer)
to another pointer through a cast to its pointer type. And GCC 10 now
considers that this cannot match a pointer and silently optimizes the
comparison away. A tested workaround for this is to build with
-fno-tree-pta. Note that older gcc versions even with -ftree-pta do
not exhibit this rather surprizing behavior.
This patch changes the test to instead cast the null-based address to
an int to get the offset and subtract it from the pointer, and this
time it works. There were just a few places to adjust. Ideally
offsetof() should be used but the LIST_ELEM() API doesn't make this
trivial as it's commonly called with a typeof(ptr) and not typeof(ptr*)
thus it would require to completely change the whole API, which is not
something workable in the short term, especially for a backport.
With this change, the emitted code is subtly different even on older
versions. A code size reduction of ~600 bytes and a total executable
size reduction of ~1kB are expected to be observed and should not be
taken as an anomaly. Typically this loop in dequeue_proxy_listeners() :
while ((listener = MT_LIST_POP(...)))
used to produce this code where the comparison is performed on RAX
while the new offset is assigned to RDI even though both are always
identical:
53ded8: 48 8d 78 c0 lea -0x40(%rax),%rdi
53dedc: 48 83 f8 40 cmp $0x40,%rax
53dee0: 74 39 je 53df1b <dequeue_proxy_listeners+0xab>
and now produces this one which is slightly more efficient as the
same register is used for both purposes:
53dd08: 48 83 ef 40 sub $0x40,%rdi
53dd0c: 74 2d je 53dd3b <dequeue_proxy_listeners+0x9b>
Similarly, retrieving the channel from a stream_interface using si_ic()
and si_oc() used to cause this (stream-int in rdi):
1cb7: c7 47 1c 00 02 00 00 movl $0x200,0x1c(%rdi)
1cbe: f6 47 04 10 testb $0x10,0x4(%rdi)
1cc2: 74 1c je 1ce0 <si_report_error+0x30>
1cc4: 48 81 ef 00 03 00 00 sub $0x300,%rdi
1ccb: 81 4f 10 00 08 00 00 orl $0x800,0x10(%rdi)
and now causes this:
1cb7: c7 47 1c 00 02 00 00 movl $0x200,0x1c(%rdi)
1cbe: f6 47 04 10 testb $0x10,0x4(%rdi)
1cc2: 74 1c je 1ce0 <si_report_error+0x30>
1cc4: 81 8f 10 fd ff ff 00 orl $0x800,-0x2f0(%rdi)
There is extremely little chance that this fix wakes up a dormant bug as
the emitted code effectively does what the source code intends.
This must be backported to all supported branches (dropping MT_LIST_ELEM
and the spoa_example parts as needed), since the bug is subtle and may
not always be visible even when compiling with gcc-10.
ST_F_CHECK_DURATION is now part of exported server metrics, named
haproxy_server_check_duration_seconds and expressed in seconds. For a given
server, this value is exported only if the healthcheck is finished (the status
is greater or equal to HCHK_STATUS_CHECKED).
This patch fixes the issue #519. It may be backported as fat as 2.0.
Historically we used to require that the connections held the desired
polling states for the data layer and the socket layer. Then with muxes
these were more or less merged into the transport layer, and now it
happens that with all transport layers having their own state, the
"transport layer state" as we have it in the connection (XPRT_RD_ENA,
XPRT_WR_ENA) is only an exact copy of the undelying file descriptor
state, but with a delay. All of this is causing some difficulties at
many places in the code because there are still some locations which
use the conn_want_* API to remain clean and only rely on connection,
and count on a later collection call to conn_cond_update_polling(),
while others need an immediate action and directly use the FD updates.
Since our updates are now much cheaper, most of them being only an
atomic test-and-set operation, and since our I/O callbacks are deferred,
there's no benefit anymore in trying to "cache" the transient state
change in the connection flags hoping to cancel them before they
become an FD event. Better make such calls transparent indirections
to the FD layer instead and get rid of the deferred operations which
needlessly complicate the logic inside.
This removes flags CO_FL_XPRT_{RD,WR}_ENA and CO_FL_WILL_UPDATE.
A number of functions related to polling updates were either greatly
simplified or removed.
Two places were using CO_FL_XPRT_WR_ENA as a hint to know if more data
were expected to be sent after a PROXY protocol or SOCKSv4 header. These
ones were simply replaced with a check on the subscription which is
where we ought to get the autoritative information from.
Now the __conn_xprt_want_* and their conn_xprt_want_* counterparts
are the same. conn_stop_polling() and conn_xprt_stop_both() are the
same as well. conn_cond_update_polling() only causes errors to stop
polling. It also becomes way more obvious that muxes should not at
all employ conn_xprt_{want|stop}_{recv,send}(), and that the call
to __conn_xprt_stop_recv() in case a mux failed to allocate a buffer
is inappropriate, it ought to unsubscribe from reads instead. All of
this definitely requires a serious cleanup.
This is convenient when processing large dumps, it allows to copy-paste
values to inspect from one window to another, or to directly transfer
a "show fd"/"show stream" output through sed. In order to do this, simply
pass "-" alone instead of the value and they will all be read one line at
a time from stdin. For example, in order to quickly print the different
set of connection flags from "show fd", this is sufficient:
sed -ne 's/^.* cflg=\([^ ]*\).*/\1/p' | contrib/debug/flags conn -
It's often convenient, for example to dump two channels or two stream-int
at once. Now all input values are decoded and the value is recalled before
the dump when there is more than one to display.
It's often confusing to have a whole dump on the screen while only
checking for a set of task or stream flags, and appending "|grep ^chn"
isn't very convenient to repeat the opeation. Instead let's add the
ability to filter the output as certain types only by prepending their
name(s) before the value.
Commit 477902bd2e ("MEDIUM: connections: Get ride of the xprt_done
callback.") broke the master CLI for a very obscure reason. It happens
that short requests immediately terminated by a shutdown are properly
received, CS_FL_EOS is correctly set, but in si_cs_recv(), we refrain
from setting CF_SHUTR on the channel because CO_FL_CONNECTED was not
yet set on the connection since we've not passed again through
conn_fd_handler() and it was not done in conn_complete_session(). While
commit a8a415d31a ("BUG/MEDIUM: connections: Set CO_FL_CONNECTED in
conn_complete_session()") fixed the issue, such accident may happen
again as the root cause is deeper and actually comes down to the fact
that CO_FL_CONNECTED is lazily set at various check points in the code
but not every time we drop one wait bit. It is not the first time we
face this situation.
Originally this flag was used to detect the transition between WAIT_*
and CONNECTED in order to call ->wake() from the FD handler. But since
at least 1.8-dev1 with commit 7bf3fa3c23 ("BUG/MAJOR: connection: update
CO_FL_CONNECTED before calling the data layer"), CO_FL_CONNECTED is
always synchronized against the two others before being checked. Moreover,
with the I/Os moved to tasklets, the decision to call the ->wake() function
is performed after the I/Os in si_cs_process() and equivalent, which don't
care about this transition either.
So in essence, checking for CO_FL_CONNECTED has become a lazy wait to
check for (CO_FL_WAIT_L4_CONN | CO_FL_WAIT_L6_CONN), but that always
relies on someone else having synchronized it.
This patch addresses it once for all by killing this flag and only checking
the two others (for which a composite mask CO_FL_WAIT_L4L6 was added). This
revealed a number of inconsistencies that were purposely not addressed here
for the sake of bisectability:
- while most places do check both L4+L6 and HANDSHAKE at the same time,
some places like assign_server() or back_handle_st_con() and a few
sample fetches looking for proxy protocol do check for L4+L6 but
don't care about HANDSHAKE ; these ones will probably fail on TCP
request session rules if the handshake is not complete.
- some handshake handlers do validate that a connection is established
at L4 but didn't clear CO_FL_WAIT_L4_CONN
- the ->ctl method of mux_fcgi, mux_pt and mux_h1 only checks for L4+L6
before declaring the mux ready while the snd_buf function also checks
for the handshake's completion. Likely the former should validate the
handshake as well and we should get rid of these extra tests in snd_buf.
- raw_sock_from_buf() would directly set CO_FL_CONNECTED and would only
later clear CO_FL_WAIT_L4_CONN.
- xprt_handshake would set CO_FL_CONNECTED itself without actually
clearing CO_FL_WAIT_L4_CONN, which could apparently happen only if
waiting for a pure Rx handshake.
- most places in ssl_sock that were checking CO_FL_CONNECTED don't need
to include the L4 check as an L6 check is enough to decide whether to
wait for more info or not.
It also becomes obvious when reading the test in si_cs_recv() that caused
the failure mentioned above that once converted it doesn't make any sense
anymore: having CS_FL_EOS set while still waiting for L4 and L6 to complete
cannot happen since for CS_FL_EOS to be set, the other ones must have been
validated.
Some of these parts will still deserve further cleanup, and some of the
observations above may induce some backports of potential bug fixes once
totally analyzed in their context. The risk of breaking existing stuff
is too high to blindly backport everything.
The failed_secu counter is only used for the servers stats. It is used to report
the number of denied responses. On proxies, the same info is stored in the
denied_resp counter. So, it is more consistent to use the same field for
servers.
ST_F_CHECK_STATUS and ST_F_CHECK_CODE are now part of exported server metrics:
* haproxy_server_check_status
* haproxy_server_check_code
The heathcheck status is an integer corresponding to HCHK_STATUS value.
These ones used to serve as a set of switches between CO_FL_SOCK_* and
CO_FL_XPRT_*, and now that the SOCK layer is gone, they're always a
copy of the last know CO_FL_XPRT_* ones that is resynchronized before
I/O events by calling conn_refresh_polling_flags(), and that are pushed
back to FDs when detecting changes with conn_xprt_polling_changes().
While these functions are not particularly heavy, what they do is
totally redundant by now because the fd_want_*/fd_stop_*() actions
already perform test-and-set operations to decide to create an entry
or not, so they do the exact same thing that is done by
conn_xprt_polling_changes(). As such it is pointless to call that
one, and given that the only reason to keep CO_FL_CURR_* is to detect
changes there, we can now remove them.
Even if this does only save very few cycles, this removes a significant
complexity that has been responsible for many bugs in the past, including
the last one affecting FreeBSD.
All tests look good, and no performance regressions were observed.
we were decoding all substring and then parsing; this could lead to
consider & and = in decoding result as delimiters where it should not.
this patch reverses the order by first parsing and then decoding each key
and value separately.
we also stop parsing after number sign (#).
This patch should be backported to 2.1 and 2.0

By passing the parameter "no-maint" in the query-string, it is now possible to
ignore servers in maintenance. It means that the metrics for servers in this
state will not be exported.
Now, the prometheus exporter parses the HTTP query-string to filter or to adapt
the exported metrics. In this first version, it is only possible select the
scopes of metrics to export. To do so, one or more parameters with "scope" as
name must be passed in the query-string, with one of those values: global,
frontend, backend, server or '*' (means all). A scope parameter with no value
means to filter out all scopes (nothing is returned). The scope parameters are
parsed in their appearance order in the query-string. So an empty scope will
reset all scopes already parsed. But it can be overridden by following scope
parameters in the query-string. By default everything is exported.
The filtering can also be done on prometheus scraping configuration, but general
aim is to optimise the source of data to improve load and scraping time. This is
particularly true for huge configuration with thousands of backends and servers.
Also note that this configuration was possible on the previous official haproxy
exporter but with even more parameters to select the needed metrics. Here we
thought it was sufficient to simply avoid a given type of metric. However, more
filters are still possible.
Thanks to William Dauchy. This patch is based on his work.
This adds two extra metrics per server, one for the current number of idle
connections and one for the configured limit :
* haproxy_server_idle_connections_current
* haproxy_server_idle_connections_limit
The following metrics have been renamed without the "_http" part :
* http_queue_time_average_seconds => queue_time_average_seconds
* http_connect_time_average_seconds => connect_time_average_seconds
* http_response_time_average_seconds => response_time_average_seconds
* http_total_time_average_seconds => total_time_average_seconds
These metrics are reported per backend and per server and are not specific to
HTTP sessions.
Now, for the sessions, the maximum times (queue, connect, response, total) are
reported in addition of the averages over the last 1024 connections. These
metrics are reported per backend and per server. Here are the metrics name :
* haproxy_backend_max_queue_time_seconds
* haproxy_backend_max_connect_time_seconds
* haproxy_backend_max_response_time_seconds
* haproxy_backend_max_total_time_seconds
and
* haproxy_server_max_queue_time_seconds
* haproxy_server_max_connect_time_seconds
* haproxy_server_max_response_time_seconds
* haproxy_server_max_total_time_seconds
This patch is related to #272.
The rcsid variable is static an unused, causing a build warning. Let's
just add __attribute__((unused)) to shut the warning.
This may be backported to 2.0.
The metrics QTIME, CTIME, RTIME and TTIME are now returned in seconds using a
float representation instead of in milliseconds. So these metrics are now
consistent with their announced type and respect Prometheus naming conventions.
This patch fixes the issue #288. It may be backported to 2.0. If so, the
previous patch, introducing the support for float fields in stats is mantatory
and should be backported first.
Now, following status are reported for servers:0=DOWN, 1=UP, 2=MAINT, 3=DRAIN,
4=NOLB.
It is linked to the github issue #255. Thanks to Mickaël Martin. If needed, this
patch may be backported to 2.0.
This simple program prepares a TCP connection between two ends and
allows to perform various operations on them such as send, recv, poll,
shutdown, close, reset, etc. It takes care of remaining particularly
silent to help inspection via strace, though it can also be verbose
and report status, errno, and poll events. It delays acceptation of
the incoming server-side connection so that it's even possible to
test the poll status on a listener with a pending connection, or
to close the connection without accepting it and inspect the effect
on the client.
Actions are executed in the command line order as they are parsed,
they may be grouped using commas when they are performed on the same
socket.
Example showing a successful recv() of pending data before a pending error:
$ ./poll -v -l pol,acc,pol -c snd,shw -s pol,rcv,pol,rcv,pol,snd,lin,clo -c pol,rcv,pol,rcv,pol

Prometheus protocol defines HELP and TYPE as a token after the '#' and
the space after the '#' is necessary.
This is expected in the prometheus python client for example
(a8f5c80f65/prometheus_client/parser.py (L194))
and the missing space is breaking the parsing of metrics' type.
This patch must be backported to 2.0.
The old module proto_http does not exist anymore. All code dedicated to the HTTP
analysis is now grouped in the file proto_htx.c. So, to finish the polishing
after removing the legacy HTTP code, proto_htx.{c,h} files have been moved in
http_ana.{c,h} files.
In addition, all HTX analyzers and related functions prefixed with "htx_" have
been renamed to start with "http_" instead.
Many flags of the HTTP transction (TX_*) are now unused and useless. So the
flags TX_WAIT_CLEANUP, TX_HDR_CONN_*, TX_CON_CLO_SET and TX_CON_KAL_SET were
removed. Most of TX_CON_WANT_* were also removed. Only TX_CON_WANT_TUN has been
kept.
First of all, all legacy HTTP analyzers and all functions exclusively used by
them were removed. So the most of the functions in proto_http.{c,h} were
removed. Only functions to deal with the HTTP transaction have been kept. Then,
http_msg and hdr_idx modules were entirely removed. And finally the structure
http_msg was lightened of all its useless information about the legacy HTTP. The
structure hdr_ctx was also removed because unused now, just like unused states
in the enum h1_state. Note that the memory pool "hdr_idx" was removed and
"http_txn" is now smaller.
When the response buffer is full and nothing more can be inserted, it is
important to not try to insert an empty data block. Otherwise, when the function
channel_add_input() is called, the flag CF_READ_PARTIAL is set on the response
channel while nothing was read and the stream is uselessly woken up. Finally, we
have loop while the response buffer is full.
This patch must be backported to 2.0.
The previous commit e6cdfe574 ("BUG/MINOR: contrib/prometheus-exporter: Don't
use channel_htx_recv_max()") is buggy. The buffer's reserve must be respected.
This patch must be backported to 2.0 and 1.9.
The function htx_free_data_space() must be used intead. Otherwise, if there are
some output data not already forwarded, the maximum amount of data that may be
inserted into the buffer may be greater than what we can really insert.
This patch must be backported to 2.0.
The following example files awere removed as irrelevant by this
time :
auth.cfg check.conf ssl.cfg haproxy.spec
The following scripts were removed as having been unused for more
than a decade :
debug2ansi debug2html debugfind check init.haproxy stats_haproxy.sh
seemless_reload.txt was moved to doc/ where it's more suitable.
haproxy.vim was moved to contrib/syntax-highlight/
scripts/create-release was updated not to try to update haproxy.spec
anymore.
The INSTALL guide, the Lua doc and the Prometheus exporter's README all
used to reference "linux2628", "linux26" or even "linux". These were all
updated to consistently reflect "linux-glibc" instead. The default options
were updated there as well so that it should build cleanly on most distros.
When built with the dummy 51Degrees library for testing, the output will
include "(dummy library)" to ensure it is clear that this is this is not
the API.
This way the directory structure remains the same as with the real lib and
one can apply the same build options regardless of where the lib is stored,
removing any possible confusion.
These are intended for use by HAProxy developers to ensure any changes
did not affect the 51Degrees implementation. The 51Degrees module can be
enabled and used by using the source in contrib/51d. This will run
without breaking, but will not return any meaningful information.
This is ideal for testing HAProxy core code, and other modules alongside
51Degrees, but should never be used as an actual module as it does
nothing.
The example configuration uses sess.ip_score however this variable
is not referenced within the example scripts. This patch adds support
for sess.ip_score to the python + lua scripts and generates a
random number between 1 and 100.
