Args pointer is now used as the LRU cache domain to ensure the cache
distinguishes between multiple fetch and conv configurations.
This should be backported to 1.6.
Trie device detection doesn't benefit from caching compared to Pattern.
As such the LRU cache has been removed from the Trie method.
A new fetch method has been added named 51d.all which uses all the
available HTTP headers for device device detection. The previous 51d
conv method has been changed to 51d.single where one HTTP header,
typically User-Agent, is used for detection. This method is marginally
faster but less accurate.
Three new properties are available with the Pattern method called
Method, Difference and Rank which provide insight into the validity of
the results returned.
A pool of worksets is used to avoid needing to create a new workset for
every request. The workset pool is thread safe ready to support a future
multi threaded version of HAProxy.
I can't test this patch because the avalaible 51degrees library is
"51Degrees-C-3.1.5.2" and HAProxy obviously build with another version
(some defines and symbols disappear).
This patch is provided as-is in best effort.
This patch adds a few checks on "global._51degrees.data_file_path" and allows
haproxy to start even when the pattern or trie data file is not specified.
If the "51d" converter is used, a new function "_51d_conv_check" will check
"global._51degrees.data_file_path" and displays a warning if necessary.
In src/haproxy.c, the global 51Degrees "cache_size" has moved outside of the
FIFTYONEDEGREES_H_PATTERN_INCLUDED ifdef block.
In src/51d.c, the function _51d_conv(), a final '\0' is added into
smp->data.str.str, which can cause a problem if the SMP_F_CONST flag is
set in smp->flags or if smp->data.str.size is not available.
This patch adds a check on smp->flags and smp->data.str.size, and copies
the smp->data.str.str to another buffer by using smp_dup(). If necessary,
the "const" flag is set after device detection. Also, this patch removes
the unnecessary call to chunk_reset() on temp argument.
This cache is used by 51d converter. The input User-Agent string, the
converter args and a random seed are used as a hashing key. The cached
entries contains a pointer to the resulting string for specific
User-Agent string detection.
The cache size can be tuned using 51degrees-cache-size parameter.
Moved 51Degrees code from src/haproxy.c, src/sample.c and src/cfgparse.c
into a separate files src/51d.c and include/import/51d.h.
Added two new functions init_51degrees() and deinit_51degrees(), updated
Makefile and other code reorganizations related to 51Degrees.
