select, poll and epoll now have their dedicated functions and have
been split into distinct files. Several FD manipulation primitives
have been provided with each poller.
The rest of the code needs to be cleaned to remove traces of
StaticReadEvent/StaticWriteEvent. A trick involving a macro has
temporarily been used right now. Some work needs to be done to
factorize tests and sets everywhere.
- rewriting either the status line or request line could crash the
process due to a pointer which ought to be reset before parsing.
- rewriting the status line in the response did not work, it caused
a 502 Bad Gateway due to an erroneous state during parsing
- fix reqadd when no option httpclose is used.
- removed now unused fiprm and beprm from proxies
- split logs into two versions : TCP and HTTP
- added some docs about http headers storage and acls
- added a VIM script for syntax color highlighting (Bruno Michel)
- fixed several bugs which might have caused a crash with bad configs
- several optimizations in header processing
- many progresses towards transaction-based processing
- option forwardfor may be used in frontends
- completed HTTP response processing
- some code refactoring between request and response processing
- new HTTP header manipulation functions
- optimizations on the recv() patch to reduce CPU usage under very
high data rates.
- more user-friendly help about the 'usesrc' keyword (CTTPROXY)
- username/groupname support from Marcus Rueckert
- added the "except" keyword to the "forwardfor" option (Bryan German)
- support for health-checks on other addresses (Fabrice Dulaunoy)
- makefile for MacOS 10.4 / Darwin (Dan Zinngrabe)
- do not insert "Connection: close" in HTTP/1.0 messages
Contribution from Dan Zinngrabe :
Here is a Makefile based on that for BSD that builds HAProxy 1.3.7 on
MacOS 10.4 and Darwin. I haven't tested it extensively yet, but it
does seem to work so far.
