Gcc provides __attribute__((constructor)) which is very convenient
to execute functions at startup right before main(). All the pollers
have been converted to have their register() function declared like
this, so that it is not necessary anymore to call them from a centralized
file.
Some pollers such as kqueue lose their FD across fork(), meaning that
the registered file descriptors are lost too. Now when the proxies are
started by start_proxies(), the file descriptors are not registered yet,
leaving enough time for the fork() to take place and to get a new pollfd.
It will be the first call to maintain_proxies that will register them.
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.
The files are now stored under :
- include/haproxy for the generic includes
- include/types.h for the structures needed within prototypes
- include/proto.h for function prototypes and inline functions
- src/*.c for the C files
Most include files are now covered by LGPL. A last move still needs
to be done to put inline functions under GPL and not LGPL.
Version has been set to 1.3.0 in the code but some control still
needs to be done before releasing.
