A new function introduced meant to be called during general deinit phase.
During the configuration parsing, the section entries are all allocated.
This new function free them.
The tune.maxrewrite parameter used to be pre-initialized to half of
the buffer size since the very early days when buffers were very small.
It has grown to absurdly large values over the years to reach 8kB for a
16kB buffer. This prevents large requests from being accepted, which is
the opposite of the initial goal.
Many users fix it to 1024 which is already quite large for header
addition.
So let's change the default setting policy :
- pre-initialize it to 1024
- let the user tweak it
- in any case, limit it to tune.bufsize / 2
This results in 15kB usable to buffer HTTP messages instead of 8kB, and
doesn't affect existing configurations which already force it.
This new target can be called from the frontend or the backend. It
is evaluated just before the backend choice and just before the server
choice. So, the input stream or HTTP request can be forwarded to a
server or to an internal service.
This patch only declares the execution timeout variable. The applet
must be respect or ignore it. For example an applet who doing some
network accesses and doesn't control its execution yime should use
this timeout.
this patch adds init function for the applet. the HAProxy standard
applet (peers, stats, lua) have no standard way for the applet
initialisation. This new function pointer have for goal to try to
standardize the applet initialization.
This flag is used by custom actions to know that they're called for the
first time. The only case where it's not set is when they're resuming
from a yield. It will be needed to let them know when they have to
allocate some resources.
The garbage collector is a little bit heavy to run, and it was added
only for cosockets. This patch prevent useless executions when no
cosockets are used.
This new flag indicates to a custom action that it must not yield because
it will not be called anymore. This addresses an issue introduced by commit
bc4c1ac ("MEDIUM: http/tcp: permit to resume http and tcp custom actions"),
which made it possible to yield even after the last call and causes Lua
actions not to be stopped when the session closes. Note that the Lua issue
is not fixed yet at this point. Also only TCP rules were handled, for now
HTTP rules continue to let the action yield since we don't know whether or
not it is a final call.
Since commit bc4c1ac ("MEDIUM: http/tcp: permit to resume http and tcp
custom actions"), some actions may yield and be called back when new
information are available. Unfortunately some of them may continue to
yield because they simply don't know that it's the last call from the
rule set. For this reason we'll need to pass a flag to the custom
action to pass such information and possibly other at the same time.
While the SI_ST_DIS state is set *after* doing the close on a connection,
it was set *before* calling release on an applet. Applets have no internal
flags contrary to connections, so they have no way to detect they were
already released. Because of this it happened that applets were closed
twice, once via si_applet_release() and once via si_release_endpoint() at
the end of a transaction. The CLI applet could perform a double free in
this case, though the situation to cause it is quite hard because it
requires that the applet is stuck on output in states that produce very
few data.
In order to solve this, we now assign the SI_ST_DIS state *after* calling
->release, and we refrain from doing so if the state is already assigned.
This makes applets work much more like connections and definitely avoids
this double release.
In the future it might be worth making applets have their own flags like
connections to carry their own state regardless of the stream interface's
state, especially when dealing with connection reuse.
No backport is needed since this issue was caused by the rearchitecture
in 1.6.
This function is a callback made only for calls from the applet handler.
Rename it to remove confusion. It's currently called from the Lua code
but that's not correct, we should call the notify and update functions
instead otherwise it will not enable the applet again.
This one is not needed anymore as what it used to do is either
completely covered by the new stream_int_notify() function, or undesired
and inherited from the past as a side effect of introducing the
connections.
This update is theorically never called since it's assigned only when
nothing is connected to the stream interface. However a test has been
added to si_update() to stay safe if some foreign code decides to call
si_update() in unsafe situations.
stream_int_notify() was taken from the common part between si_conn_wake_cb()
and si_applet_done(). It is designed to report activity to a stream from
outside its handler. It'll generally be used by lower layers to report I/O
completion but may also be used by remote streams if the buffer processing
is shared.
Now the call to stream_int_update() is moved to si_update(), which
is exclusively called from the stream, so that the socket layer may
be updated without updating the stream layer. This will later permit
to call it individually from other places (other tasks or applets for
example).
This function is designed to be called from within the stream handler to
update the channels' expiration timers and the stream interface's flags
based on the channels' flags. It needs to be called only once after the
channels' flags have settled down, and before they are cleared, though it
doesn't harm to call it as often as desired (it just slightly hurts
performance). It must not be called from outside of the stream handler,
as what it does will be used to compute the stream task's expiration.
The code was taken directly from stream_int_update_applet() and
stream_int_update_conn() which had exactly the same one except for
applet-specific or connection-specific status update.
This is not a real run queue and we're facing ugly bugs because
if this : if a an applet removes another applet from the queue,
typically the next one after itself, the list iterator loops
forever because the list's backup pointer is not valid anymore.
Before creating a run queue, let's rename this list.
This private configuration pointer is used for storing some configuration
data associated the keyword, So many keywords can use the same parse
function, and this one can use a discriminator.
Mailing list participant "mlist" reported negative conn_cur values in
stick tables as the result of "tcp-request connection track-sc". The
reason is that after the stick entry it copied from the session to the
stream, both the session and the stream grab a reference to the entry
and when the stream ends, it decrements one reference and one connection,
then the same is done for the session.
In fact this problem was already encountered slightly differently in the
past and addressed by Thierry using the patch below as it was believed by
then to be only a refcount issue since it was the observable symptom :
827752e "BUG/MEDIUM: stick-tables: refcount error after copying SC..."
In reality the problem is that the stream must touch neither the refcount
nor the connection count for entries it inherits from the session. While
we have no way to tell whether a track entry was inherited from the session
(since they're simply memcpy'd), it is possible to prevent the stream from
touching an entry that already exists in the session because that's a
guarantee that it was inherited from it.
Note that it may be a temporary fix. Maybe in the future when a session
gives birth to multiple streams we'll face a situation where a session may
be updated to add more tracked entries after instanciating some streams.
The correct long-term fix is to mark some tracked entries as shared or
private (or RO/RW). That will allow the session to track more entries
even after the same trackers are being used by early streams.
No backport is needed, this is only caused by the session/stream split in 1.6.
Added support for version 3.2 of 51Degrees C library.
Added fields to store HTTP header names important to device detection
other than User-Agent.
Included a pool of worksets for use with Pattern device detection.
Added the definition of CHECK_HTTP_MESSAGE_FIRST and the declaration of
smp_prefetch_http to the header.
Changed smp_prefetch_http implementation to remove the static qualifier.
This directive gives HAProxy the ability to use the either the global
server-state-file directive or a local one using server-state-file-name to
load server states.
The state can be saved right before the reload by the init script, using
the "show servers state" command on the stats socket redirecting output into
a file.
This new global section directive is used to store the path to the file
where HAProxy will be able to retrieve server states across reloads.
The file pointed by this path is used to store a file which can contains
state of all servers from all backends.
This new global directive can be used to provide a base directory where
all the server state files could be loaded.
If a server state file name starts with a slash '/', then this directive
must not be applied.
new command 'show servers state' which dumps all variable parameters
of a server during an HAProxy process life.
Purpose is to dump current server state at current run time in order to
read them right after the reload.
The format of the output is versionned and we support version 1 for now.
Introduces a few new macros used by server state save and application accros reloads:
- currently used state server file format version
- currently used state server file header fields
- MIN and MAX value for version number
- maximum number of fields that could be found in a server-state file
- an arbitrary state-file max line length
When a server is disabled in the configuration using the "disabled"
keyword, a single flag is positionned: SRV_ADMF_CMAINT (use to be
SRV_ADMF_FMAINT)..
That said, when providing the first version of this code, we also
changed the SRV_ADMF_MAINT mask to match any of the possible MAINT
cases: SRV_ADMF_FMAINT, SRV_ADMF_IMAINT, SRV_ADMF_CMAINT
Since SRV_ADMF_CMAINT is never (and is not supposed to be) altered at
run time, once a server has this flag set up, it can never ever be
enabled again using the stats socket.
In order to fix this, we should:
- consider SRV_ADMF_CMAINT as a simple flag to report the state in the
old configuration file (will be used after a reload to deduce the
state of the server in a new running process)
- enabling both SRV_ADMF_CMAINT and SRV_ADMF_FMAINT when the keyword
"disabled" is in use in the configuration
- update the mask SRV_ADMF_MAINT as it was before, to only match
SRV_ADMF_FMAINT and SRV_ADMF_IMAINT.
The following patch perform the changes above.
It allows fixing the regression without breaking the way the up coming
feature (seamless server state accross reloads) is going to work.
Note: this is 1.6-only, no backport needed.
Regex header file is missing in types/action.h
Repported by Conrad Hoffmann
I cannot build the current dev's master HEAD (ec3c37d) because of this error:
> In file included from include/proto/proto_http.h:26:0,
> from src/stick_table.c:26:
> include/types/action.h:102:20: error: field ‘re’ has incomplete type
> struct my_regex re; /* used by replace-header and replace-value */
> ^
> Makefile:771: recipe for target 'src/stick_table.o' failed
> make: *** [src/stick_table.o] Error 1
The struct act_rule defined in action.h includes a full struct my_regex
without #include-ing regex.h. Both gcc 5.2.0 and clang 3.6.2 do not allow this.
Some DNS response may be valid from a protocol point of view but may not
contain any IP addresses.
This patch gives a new flag to the function dns_get_ip_from_response to
report such case.
It's up to the upper layer to decide what to do with this information.
Some DNS responses may be valid from a protocol point of view, but may
not contain any information considered as interested by the requester..
Purpose of the flag DNS_RESP_NO_EXPECTED_RECORD introduced by this patch is
to allow reporting such situation.
When this happens, a new DNS query is sent with a new query type.
For now, the function only expect A and AAAA query types which is enough
to cover current cases.
In a next future, it will be up to the caller to tell the function which
query types are expected.
The function does a bunch of things among which resolving environment
variables, skipping address family specifiers and trimming port ranges.
It is the only one which sees the complete host name before trying to
resolve it. The DNS resolving code needs to know the original hostname,
so we modify this function to optionally provide it to the caller.
Note that the function itself doesn't know if the host part was a host
or an address, but str2ip() knows that and can be asked not to try to
resolve. So we first try to parse the address without resolving and
try again with resolving enabled. This way we know if the address is
explicit or needs some kind of resolution.
This patch introduces a new internal response state about the analysis
of a DNS response received by a server.
It is dedicated to report to above layer that the response is
'truncated'.
This patch updates the dns_nameserver structure to integrate a counter
dedicated to 'truncated' response sent by servers.
Such response are important to track, since HAProxy is supposed to
replay its request.
Current DNS client code implementation doesn't take care of response
flags setup by the server.
This patch introduces a couple of bitmasks one can use to retrieve the
truncated flag and the reply code available in the 2-bytes flag field.
3 variables of the dns_resolution structure are set to 'time_t' type.
Since they are all set by 'now_ms' and used as 'ticks' in HAProxy's
internal, it is safer to set them to the same type than now_ms:
'unsigned int'.
When converting the "method" fetch to a string, we used to get an empty
string if the first character was not an upper case. This was caused by
the lookup function which returns HTTP_METH_NONE when a lookup is not
possible, and this method being mapped to an empty string in the array.
This is a totally stupid mechanism, there's no reason for having the
result depend on the first char. In fact the message parser already
checks that the syntax matches an HTTP token so we can only land there
with a valid token, hence only HTTP_METH_OTHER should be returned.
This fix should be backported to all actively supported branches.
