By default, HAProxy's DNS resolution at runtime ensure that there is no
IP address duplication in a backend (for servers being resolved by the
same hostname).
There are a few cases where people want, on purpose, to disable this
feature.
This patch introduces a couple of new server side options for this purpose:
"resolve-opts allow-dup-ip" or "resolve-opts prevent-dup-ip".
This introduces a new directive for the `resolvers` section:
`parse-resolv-conf`. When present, it will attempt to add any
nameservers in `/etc/resolv.conf` to the list of nameservers
for the current `resolvers` section.

Sets OpenSSL 1.1.1's SSL_OP_PRIORITIZE_CHACHA unconditionally, as per [1]:
When SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE is set, temporarily reprioritize
ChaCha20-Poly1305 ciphers to the top of the server cipher list if a
ChaCha20-Poly1305 cipher is at the top of the client cipher list. This
helps those clients (e.g. mobile) use ChaCha20-Poly1305 if that cipher
is anywhere in the server cipher list; but still allows other clients to
use AES and other ciphers. Requires SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE.

RFC 7234 says:
A cache MUST NOT store a response to any request, unless:
[...] the Authorization header field (see Section 4.2 of [RFC7235]) does
not appear in the request, if the cache is shared, unless the
response explicitly allows it (see Section 3.2), [...]
In this patch we completely disable the cache upon the receipt of an
Authorization header in the request. In this case it's not possible to
either use the cache or store into the cache anymore.
Thanks to Adam Eijdenberg of Digital Transformation Agency for raising
this issue.
This patch must be backported to 1.8.
* A few typos
* Fix definitions of values which are tables, not arrays.
* Consistent US English naming for "server" instead of "serveur".
[tfo: should be backported to 1.6 and higher]
For large farms where servers are regularly added or removed, picking
a random server from the pool can ensure faster load transitions than
when using round-robin and less traffic surges on the newly added
servers than when using leastconn.
This commit introduces "balance random". It internally uses a random as
the key to the consistent hashing mechanism, thus all features available
in consistent hashing such as weights and bounded load via hash-balance-
factor are usable. It is extremely convenient because one common concern
when using random is what happens when a server is hammered a bit too
much. Here that can trivially be avoided, like in the configuration below :
backend bk0
balance random
hash-balance-factor 110
server-template s 1-100 127.0.0.1:8000 check inter 1s
Note that while "balance random" internally relies on a hash algorithm,
it holds the same properties as round-robin and as such is compatible with
reusing an existing server connection with "option prefer-last-server".
This converter supplements the existing string matching by allowing
strings to be converted to a variable.
Example usage:
http-request set-var(txn.host) hdr(host)
# Check whether the client is attempting domain fronting.
acl ssl_sni_http_host_match ssl_fc_sni,strcmp(txn.host) eq 0
It is now possible to use a payload with the "set ssl ocsp-response"
command. These syntaxes will work the same way:
# echo "set ssl ocsp-response $(base64 -w 10000 ocsp.der)" | \
socat /tmp/sock1 -
# echo -e "set ssl ocsp-response <<\n$(base64 ocsp.der)\n" | \
socat /tmp/sock1 -

It is now possible to use a payload with the "add map" command.
These syntaxes will work the same way:
# echo "add map #-1 key value" | socat /tmp/sock1 -
# echo -e "add map #-1 <<\n$(cat data)\n" | socat /tmp/sock1 -
with
# cat data
key1 value1 with spaces
key2 value2
key3 value3 also with spaces

In order to use arbitrary data in the CLI (multiple lines or group of words
that must be considered as a whole, for example), it is now possible to add a
payload to the commands. To do so, the first line needs to end with a special
pattern: <<\n. Everything that follows will be left untouched by the CLI parser
and will be passed to the commands parsers.
Per-command support will need to be added to take advantage of this
feature.

The links were still stuck to version 1.6. Let's update them.
The patch needs to be carefully backported to 1.8 and 1.7 after
editing the respective version (replace 1.9dev with 1.8 or 1.7).
Export localpeer as the environment variable $HAPROXY_LOCALPEER,
allowing to use this variable in the configuration file.
It's useful to use this variable in the case of synchronized
configuration between peers.
Patch adds ability to fetch frontend's default backend name in your
logic, so it can be used later to derive other backend names to make routing
decisions.
In addition to metrics about time spent in the SPOE, following counters have
been added:
* applets : number of SPOE applets.
* idles : number of idle applets.
* nb_sending : number of streams waiting to send data.
* nb_waiting : number of streams waiting for a ack.
* nb_processed : number of events/groups processed by the SPOE (from the
stream point of view).
* nb_errors : number of errors during the processing (from the stream point of
view).
Log messages has been updated to report these counters. Following pattern has
been added at the end of the log message:
... <idles>/<applets> <nb_sending>/<nb_waiting> <nb_error>/<nb_processed>
Now it is possible to configure a logger in a spoe-agent section using a "log"
line, as for a proxy. "no log", "log global" and "log <address> ..." syntaxes
are supported.
"set-process-time" and "set-total-time" options have been added to store
processing times in the transaction scope, at each event and group processing,
the current one and the total one. So it is possible to get them.
TODO: documentation
Following metrics are added for each event or group of messages processed in the
SPOE:
* processing time: the delay to process the event or the group. From the
stream point of view, it is the latency added by the SPOE
processing.
* request time : It is the encoding time. It includes ACLs processing, if
any. For fragmented frames, it is the sum of all fragments.
* queue time : the delay before the request gets out the sending queue. For
fragmented frames, it is the sum of all fragments.
* waiting time: the delay before the reponse is received. No fragmentation
supported here.
* response time: the delay to process the response. No fragmentation supported
here.
* total time: (unused for now). It is the sum of all events or groups
processed by the SPOE for a specific threads.
Log messages has been updated. Before, only errors was logged (status_code !=
0). Now every processing is logged, following this format:
SPOE: [AGENT] <TYPE:NAME> sid=STREAM-ID st=STATUC-CODE reqT/qT/wT/resT/pT
where:
AGENT is the agent name
TYPE is EVENT of GROUP
NAME is the event or the group name
STREAM-ID is an integer, the unique id of the stream
STATUS_CODE is the processing's status code
reqT/qT/wT/resT/pT are delays descrive above
For all these delays, -1 means the processing was interrupted before the end. So
-1 for the queue time means the request was never dequeued. For fragmented
frames it is harder to know when the interruption happened.
For now, messages are logged using the same logger than the backend of the
stream which initiated the request.
Instead of hlua_socket_settimeout() accepting only integers, allow user
to specify float and double as well. Convert to milliseconds much like
cli_parse_set_timeout but also sanity check the value.
http://w3.impa.br/~diego/software/luasocket/tcp.html#settimeout
T. Fournier edit:
The main goal is to keep compatibility with the LuaSocket API. This
API only accept seconds, so using a float to specify milliseconds is
an acceptable way.
Update doc.
This patch add option crc32c (PP2_TYPE_CRC32C) to proxy protocol v2.
It compute the checksum of proxy protocol v2 header as describe in
"doc/proxy-protocol.txt".
Automatic downgrade of DNS accepted payload size may have undesired side
effect, which could make a backend with all servers DOWN.
After talking with Lukas on the ML, I realized this "feature" introduces
more issues that it fixes problem.
The "best" way to handle properly big responses will be to implement DNS
over TCP.
To be backported to 1.8.
>From the very first day of force-persist and ignore-persist features,
they only applied to backends, except that the documentation stated it
could also be applied to frontends.
In order to make it clear, the documentation is updated and the parser
will raise a warning if the keywords are used in a frontend section.
This patch should be backported up to the 1.5 branch.
This patch implement proxy protocol v2 options related to crypto information:
ssl-cipher (PP2_SUBTYPE_SSL_CIPHER), cert-sig (PP2_SUBTYPE_SSL_SIG_ALG) and
cert-key (PP2_SUBTYPE_SSL_KEY_ALG).
Returns true when the back connection was made over an SSL/TLS transport
layer and the newly created SSL session was resumed using a cached
session or a TLS ticket.
It's always a pain not to be able to combine variables. This commit
introduces the "concat" converter, which appends a delimiter, a variable's
contents and another delimiter to an existing string. The result is a string.
This makes it easier to build composite variables made of other variables.
This is the maximum number of frames waiting for an acknowledgement on the same
connection. This value is only used when the pipelinied or asynchronus exchanges
between HAProxy and SPOA are enabled. By default, it is set to 20.
Proxy protocol v2 can transport many optional informations. To avoid
send-proxy-v2-* explosion, this patch introduce proxy-v2-options parameter
and will allow to write: "send-proxy-v2 proxy-v2-options ssl,cert-cn".
Remove the old suggestion to use http-server-close mode, from the
beginnings of keep-alive mode in commit 16bfb021 "MINOR: config: add
option http-keep-alive").
We made http-keep-alive default in commit 70dffdaa "MAJOR: http:
switch to keep-alive mode by default".
Add an optional second parameter to the ipmask converter that specifies
the number of bits to mask off IPv6 addresses.
If the second parameter is not given IPv6 addresses fail to mask (resulting
in an empty string), preserving backwards compatibility: Previously
a sample like `src,ipmask(24)` failed to give a result for IPv6 addresses.
This feature can be tested like this:
defaults
log global
mode http
option httplog
option dontlognull
timeout connect 5000
timeout client 50000
timeout server 50000
frontend fe

A number of counters have been added at special places helping better
understanding certain bug reports. These counters are maintained per
thread and are shown using "show activity" on the CLI. The "clear
counters" commands also reset these counters. The output is sent as a
single write(), which currently produces up to about 7 kB of data for
64 threads. If more counters are added, it may be necessary to write
into multiple buffers, or to reset the counters.
To backport to 1.8 to help collect more detailed bug reports.
