During H1 parsing, the HTX EOM block is added before switching the message state
to H1_MSG_DONE. It is an exception in the way to convert an H1 message to
HTX. Except for this block, the message is first switched to the right state
before starting to add the corresponding HTX blocks. For instance, the message
is switched in H1_MSG_DATA state and then the HTX DATA blocks are added.
With this patch, the message is switched to the H1_MSG_DONE state when all data
blocks or trailers were processed. It is the caller responsibility to call
h1_parse_msg_eom() when the H1_MSG_DONE state is reached. This way, it is far
easier to catch failures when the HTX buffer is full.
The H1 and FCGI muxes have been updated accordingly.
This patch may eventually be backported to 2.1 if it helps other backports.
As reported in issue #380, the state check in listener_state_str() is
invalid as it allows state value 9 to report crap. We don't use such
a state value so the issue should never happen unless the memory is
already corrupted, but better clean this now while it's harmless.
This should be backported to all maintained branches.
If a new process is started with -sf and it fails to bind, it may send
a SIGTTOU to the master process in hope that it will temporarily unbind.
Unfortunately this one doesn't catch it and stops to background instead
of forwarding the signal to the workers. The same is true for SIGTTIN.
This commit simply implements an extra signal handler for the master to
deal with such signals that must be passed down to the workers. It must
be backported as far as 1.8, though there the code differs in that it's
entirely in haproxy.c and doesn't require an extra sig handler.
We used to have wake_expired_tasks() wake up tasks and return the next
expiration delay. The problem this causes is that we have to call it just
before poll() in order to consider latest timers, but this also means that
we don't wake up all newly expired tasks upon return from poll(), which
thus systematically requires a second poll() round.
This is visible when running any scheduled task like a health check, as there
are systematically two poll() calls, one with the interval, nothing is done
after it, and another one with a zero delay, and the task is called:

Let's instead split the function in two parts:
- the first part, wake_expired_tasks(), called just before
process_runnable_tasks(), wakes up all expired tasks; it doesn't
compute any timeout.
- the second part, next_timer_expiry(), called just before poll(),
only computes the next timeout for the current thread.
Thanks to this, all expired tasks are properly woken up when leaving
poll, and each poll call's timeout remains up to date:

This may be backported to 2.1 and 2.0 though it's unlikely to bring any
user-visible improvement except to clarify debugging.
Commit 0742c314c3 ("BUG/MEDIUM: tasks: Make sure we switch wait queues
in task_set_affinity().") had a slight side effect on expired timeouts,
which is that when used before a timeout is updated, it will cause an
existing task to be requeued earlier than its expected timeout when done
before being updated, resulting in the next poll wakup timeout too early
or even instantly if the previous wake up was done on a timeout. This is
visible in strace when health checks are enabled because there are two
poll calls, one of which has a short or zero delay. The correct solution
is to only requeue a task if it was already in the queue.
This can be backported to all branches having the fix above.
The global listener queue code and declarations were still lying in
haproxy.c while not needed there anymore at all. This complicates
the code for no reason. As a result, the global_listener_queue_task
and the global_listener_queue were made static.
We use it half times for the global_listener_queue and half times
for a proxy's queue and this requires the callers to take care of
these. Let's split it in two versions, the current one working only
on the global queue and another one dedicated to proxies for the
per-proxy queues. This cleans up quite a bit of code.
HAProxy doesn't need to call executables at run time (except when using
external checks which are strongly recommended against), and is even expected
to isolate itself into an empty chroot. As such, there basically is no valid
reason to allow a setuid executable to be called without the user being fully
aware of the risks. In a situation where haproxy would need to call external
checks and/or disable chroot, exploiting a vulnerability in a library or in
haproxy itself could lead to the execution of an external program. On Linux
it is possible to lock the process so that any setuid bit present on such an
executable is ignored. This significantly reduces the risk of privilege
escalation in such a situation. This is what haproxy does by default. In case
this causes a problem to an external check (for example one which would need
the "ping" command), then it is possible to disable this protection by
explicitly adding this directive in the global section. If enabled, it is
possible to turn it back off by prefixing it with the "no" keyword.
Before the option:
$ socat - /tmp/sock1 <<< "expert-mode on; debug dev exec sudo /bin/id"
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root
After the option:
$ socat - /tmp/sock1 <<< "expert-mode on; debug dev exec sudo /bin/id"
sudo: effective uid is not 0, is /usr/bin/sudo on a file system with the
'nosuid' option set or an NFS file system without root privileges?
In task_set_affinity(), leave the wait_queue if any before changing the
affinity, and re-enter a wait queue once it is done. If we don't do that,
the task may stay in the wait queue of another thread, and we later may
end up modifying that wait queue while holding no lock, which could lead
to memory corruption.
THis should be backported to 2.1, 2.0 and 1.9.
Some concerns are regularly raised about the risk to inherit some Lua
files which make use of a fork (e.g. via os.execute()) as well as
whether or not some of bugs we fix might or not be exploitable to run
some code. Given that haproxy is event-driven, any foreground activity
completely stops processing and is easy to detect, but background
activity is a different story. A Lua script could very well discretely
fork a sub-process connecting to a remote location and taking commands,
and some injected code could also try to hide its activity by creating
a process or a thread without blocking the rest of the processing. While
such activities should be extremely limited when run in an empty chroot
without any permission, it would be better to get a higher assurance
they cannot happen.
This patch introduces something very simple: it limits the number of
processes and threads to zero in the workers after the last thread was
created. By doing so, it effectively instructs the system to fail on
any fork() or clone() syscall. Thus any undesired activity has to happen
in the foreground and is way easier to detect.
This will obviously break external checks (whose concept is already
totally insecure), and for this reason a new option
"insecure-fork-wanted" was added to disable this protection, and it
is suggested in the fork() error report from the checks. It is
obviously recommended not to use it and to reconsider the reasons
leading to it being enabled in the first place.
If for any reason we fail to disable forks, we still start because it
could be imaginable that some operating systems refuse to set this
limit to zero, but in this case we emit a warning, that may or may not
be reported since we're after the fork point. Ideally over the long
term it should be conditionned by strict-limits and cause a hard fail.
Typically server line like:
'server-template srv 1-1000 *:443 ssl ca-file ca-certificates.crt'
load ca-certificates.crt 1000 times and stay duplicated in memory.
Same case for bind line: ca-file is loaded for each certificate.
Same 'ca-file' can be load one time only and stay deduplicated in
memory.
As a corollary, this will prevent file access for ca-file when
updating a certificate via CLI.
This new function looks for the first control character in a string (a
char whose value is between 0x00 and 0x1F included) and returns it, or
NULL if there is none. It is optimized for quickly evicting non-matching
strings and scans ~0.43 bytes per cycle. It can be used as an accelerator
when it's needed to look up several of these characters (e.g. CR/LF/NUL).
The link to the known bugs page for the current version is built and
reported there. When it is a development version (less than 2 dots),
instead a link to github open issues is reported as there's no way to
be sure about the current situation in this case and it's better that
users report their trouble there.
As discussed on Discourse here:
https://discourse.haproxy.org/t/haproxy-branch-support-lifetime/4466
it's not always easy for end users to know the lifecycle of the version
they are using. This patch introduces a "Status" line in the output of
"haproxy -vv" indicating whether it's a development, stable, long-term
supported version, possibly with an estimated end of life for the branch
when it can be anticipated (e.g. for stable versions). This field should
be adjusted when creating a major release to reflect the new status.
It may make sense to backport this to other branches to clarify the
situation.
Rework ssl_sock_prepare_ctx() so it fills a buffer with the error
messages instead of using ha_alert()/ha_warning(). Also returns an error
code (ERR_*) instead of the number of errors.
It was noted in #48 that there are times when a configuration
may use the server-template directive with SRV records and
simultaneously want to control weights using an agent-check or
through the runtime api. This patch adds a new option
"ignore-weight" to the "resolve-opts" directive.
When specified, any weight indicated within an SRV record will
be ignored. This is for both initial resolution and ongoing
resolution.
This patch adds three counters to help in debugging peers protocol issues
to "peer" struct:
->no_hbt counts the number of reconnection period without receiving heartbeat
->new_conn counts the number of reconnections after ->reconnect timeout expirations.
->proto_err counts the number of protocol errors.
Add RX/TX heartbeat counters to "peer" struct to have an idead about which
peer is alive or not.
Dump these counters values on the CLI via "show peers" command.
Allow the sc-set-gpt0 action to set GPT0 to a value dynamically evaluated from
its <expr> argument (in addition to the existing static <int> alternative).
The copy of the startup logs used to rely on a re-allocated memory area
on the fly, that would attempt to be delivered at once over the CLI. But
if it's too large (too many warnings) it will take time to start up, and
may not even show up on the CLI as it doesn't fit in a buffer.
The ring buffer infrastructure solves all this with no more code, let's
switch to this instead. It simply requires a parsing function to attach
the ring via ring_attach_cli() and all the rest is automatically handled.
Initially this was imagined as a code cleanup, until a test with a config
involving 100k backends and just one occurrence of
"load-server-state-from-file global" in the defaults section took approx
20 minutes to parse due to the O(N^2) cost of concatenating the warnings
resulting in ~1 TB of data to be copied, while it took only 0.57s with
the ring.
Ideally this patch should be backported to 2.0 and 1.9, though it relies
on the ring infrastructure which will then also need to be backported.
Configs able to trigger the bug are uncommon, so another workaround for
older versions without backporting the rings would consist in simply
limiting the size of the error message in print_message() to something
always printable, which will only return the first errors.
Now, for the sessions, the maximum times (queue, connect, response, total) are
reported in addition of the averages over the last 1024 connections. These
values are called qtime_max, ctime_max, rtime_max and ttime_max.
This patch is related to #272.
For backends and servers, some average times for last 1024 connections are
already calculated. For the moment, the averages for the time passed in the
queue, the connect time, the response time (for HTTP session only) and the total
time are calculated. Now, in addition, the maximum time observed for these
values are also stored.
In addition, These new counters are cleared as all other max values with the CLI
command "clear counters".
This patch is related to #272.
This change make the payload filtering uniform between TCP and HTTP
filters. Now, in TCP, like in HTTP, there is only one callback responsible to
forward data. Thus, old callbacks, tcp_data() and tcp_forward_data(), are
replaced by a single callback function, tcp_payload(). This new callback gets
the offset in the payload to (re)start the filtering and the maximum amount of
data it can forward. It is the filter's responsibility to be compatible with HTX
streams. If not, it must not set the flag FLT_CFG_FL_HTX.
Because of this change, nxt and fwd offsets are no longer needed. Thus they are
removed from the filter structure with their update functions,
flt_change_next_size() and flt_change_forward_size(). Moreover, the trace filter
has been updated accordingly.
This patch breaks the compatibility with the old API. Thus it should probably
not be backported. But, AFAIK, there is no TCP filter, thus the breakage is very
limited.
In tasklet_remove_from_tasket_list(), we can be called for a tasklet that is
either in the private task list, or in the shared tasklet list. Take that into
account and always use MT_LIST_DEL() to remove it, otherwise if we're in the
shared list and another thread attempts to add a tasklet in it, bad things
will happen.
__tasklet_remove_from_tasklet_list() is left unchanged, it's only supposed
to be used by process_runnable_task() to remove task/tasklets from the private
tast list.
This should not be backported.
This should fix github issue #357.
Since the legacy HTTP mode was removed, the stream is always released at the end
of each HTTP transaction and a new is created to handle the next request for
keep-alive connections. So the HTTP transaction is no longer reset and the
function http_reset_txn() can be removed.
Runtime traces are now supported for the streams, only if compiled with
debug. process_stream() is covered as well as TCP/HTTP analyzers and filters.
In traces, the first argument is always a stream. So it is easy to get the info
about the channels and the stream-interfaces. The second argument, when defined,
is always a HTTP transaction. And the third one is an HTTP message. The trace
message is adapted to report HTTP info when possible.
The macros DBG_TRACE_*() can be used instead of existing trace macros to emit
trace messages in debug mode only, ie, when HAProxy is compiled with DEBUG_FULL
or DEBUG_DEV. Otherwise, these macros do nothing. So it is possible to add
traces for development purpose without impacting performance of production
instances.
If the SSL_CTX of a previous instance (ckch_inst) was used as a
default_ctx, replace the default_ctx of the bind_conf by the first
SSL_CTX inserted in the SNI tree.
Use the RWLOCK of the sni tree to handle the change of the default_ctx.
It can be sometimes interesting to have a timestamp with a
resolution of less than a second.
It is currently painful to obtain this, because concatenation
of date and date_us lead to a shorter timestamp during first
100ms of a second, which is not parseable and needs ugly ACLs
in configuration to prepend 0s when needed.
To improve this, add an optional <unit> parameter to date sample
to report an integer with desired unit.
Also support this unit in http_date converter to report
a date string with sub-second precision.
Remove the leftovers of the certificate + bundle updating in 'ssl set
cert' and 'commit ssl cert'.
* Remove the it variable in appctx.ctx.ssl.
* Stop doing everything twice.
* Indent
This patch splits the 'set ssl cert' CLI command into 2 commands.
The previous way of updating the certificate on the CLI was limited with
the bundles. It was only able to apply one of the tree part of the
certificate during an update, which mean that we needed 3 updates to
update a full 3 certs bundle.
It was also not possible to apply atomically several part of a
certificate with the ability to rollback on error. (For example applying
a .pem, then a .ocsp, then a .sctl)
The command 'set ssl cert' will now duplicate the certificate (or
bundle) and update it in a temporary transaction..
The second command 'commit ssl cert' will commit all the changes made
during the transaction for the certificate.
This commit breaks the ability to update a certificate which was used as
a unique file and as a bundle in the HAProxy configuration. This way of
using the certificates wasn't making any sense.
Example:
// For a bundle:
$ echo -e "set ssl cert localhost.pem.rsa <<\n$(cat kikyo.pem.rsa)\n" | socat /tmp/sock1 -
Transaction created for certificate localhost.pem!
$ echo -e "set ssl cert localhost.pem.dsa <<\n$(cat kikyo.pem.dsa)\n" | socat /tmp/sock1 -
Transaction updated for certificate localhost.pem!
$ echo -e "set ssl cert localhost.pem.ecdsa <<\n$(cat kikyo.pem.ecdsa)\n" | socat /tmp/sock1 -
Transaction updated for certificate localhost.pem!
$ echo "commit ssl cert localhost.pem" | socat /tmp/sock1 -
Committing localhost.pem.
Success!
this patch introduces a strict-limits parameter which enforces the
setrlimit setting instead of a warning. This option can be forcingly
disable with the "no" keyword.
The general aim of this patch is to avoid bad surprises on a production
environment where you change the maxconn for example, a new fd limit is
calculated, but cannot be set because of sysfs setting. In that case you
might want to have an explicit failure to be aware of it before seeing
your traffic going down. During a global rollout it is also useful to
explictly fail as most progressive rollout would simply check the
general health check of the process.
As discussed, plan to use the strict by default mode starting from v2.3.

In si_connect(), only switch the strema_interface status to SI_ST_RDY if
we're reusing a connection and if the connection's mux is ready. Otherwise,
maybe we're reusing a connection that is not fully established yet, and may
fail, and setting SI_ST_RDY would mean we would not be able to retry to
connect.
This should be backported to 1.9 and 2.0.
This commit depends on 55234e33708c5a584fb9efea81d71ac47235d518.
Add a new method, ctl(), to muxes. It uses a "enum mux_ctl_type" to
let it know which information we're asking for, and can output it either
directly by returning the expected value, or by using an optional argument.
"output" argument.
Right now, the only known mux_ctl_type is MUX_STATUS, that will return 0 if
the mux is not ready, or MUX_STATUS_READY if the mux is ready.
We probably want to backport this to 1.9 and 2.0.
This reverts commit 9e46496d45. It was
wrong and is not reliable, depending on the compiler's version and
optimization, as the struct is assigned inside a statement, thus on
its own stack. It's not needed anymore now so let's remove this.
We previously relied on chunk_cat(dst, b_fromist(src)) for this but it
is not reliable as the allocated buffer is inside the expression and
may be on a temporary stack. While it's possible to allocate stack space
for a struct and return a pointer to it, it's not possible to initialize
it form a temporary variable to prevent arguments from being evaluated
multiple times. Since this is only used to append an ist after a chunk,
let's instead have a chunk_istcat() function to perform exactly this
from a native ist.
The only call place (URI computation in the cache) was updated.
Debug commands will usually mark the fate of the process. We'd rather
have them counted and visible in a core or in stats output than trying
to guess how a flag combination could happen. The counter is only
incremented when the command is about to be issued however, so that
failed attempts are ignored.
Some commands like the debug ones are not enabled by default but can be
useful on some production environments. In order to avoid the temptation
of using them incorrectly, let's introduce an "expert" mode for a CLI
connection, which allows some commands to appear and be used. It is
enabled by command "expert-mode on" which is not listed by default.

Fix#336.
To avoid affecting too much the traffic during a certificate update,
create the SNIs in a IO handler which yield every 10 ckch instances.
This way haproxy continues to respond even if we tries to update a
certificate which have 50 000 instances.
As reported in issue #335, a lot of contention happens on the PATLRU lock
when performing expensive regex lookups. This is absurd since the purpose
of the LRU cache was to have a fast cache for expressions, thus the cache
must not be shared between threads and must remain lockless.
This commit makes the LRU cache thread-local and gets rid of the PATLRU
lock. A test with 7 threads on 4 cores climbed from 67kH/s to 369kH/s,
or a scalability factor of 5.5.
Given the huge performance difference and the regression caused to
users migrating from processes to threads, this should be backported at
least to 2.0.
Thanks to Brian Diekelman for his detailed report about this regression.
