For complex stick tables with many entries/columns, it can be beneficial
to filter using multiple criteria. The maximum number of filter entries
can be controlled by defining STKTABLE_FILTER_LEN during build time.
This patch can be backported to older releases.

- BUG/MINOR: http_act: don't check capture id in backend
- BUG/MINOR: ssl: fix build on development versions of openssl-1.1.x
A wrong behavior was introduced by
e9544935e8, leading to preventing loading
any configuration where a capture slot id is used in a backend.
IE, the configuration below does not parse:
frontend f
bind *:80
declare capture request len 32
default_backend webserver
backend webserver
http-request capture req.hdr(Host) id 1
The point is that such type of configuration is valid and should run.
This patch enforces the check of capture slot id only if the action rule
is configured in a frontend.
The point is that at configuration parsing time, it is impossible to
check which frontend could point to this backend (furthermore if we use
dynamic backend name resolution at runtime).
The documentation has been updated to warn the user to ensure that
relevant frontends have required declaration when such rule has to be
used in a backend.
If no capture slot can be found, then the action will just not be
executed and HAProxy will process the next one in the list, as expected.
This should be backported to all supported branches (bug created as part
of a bug fix introduced into 1.7 and backported to 1.6).
It is now possible to insert any attribute when a cookie is inserted by
HAProxy. Any value may be set, no check is performed except the syntax validity
(CTRL chars and ';' are forbidden). For instance, it may be used to add the
SameSite attribute:
cookie SRV insert attr "SameSite=Strict"
The attr option may be repeated to add several attributes.
This patch should fix the issue #361.
It is now possible to set the error message to use when a deny rule is
executed. It may be a specific error file, adding "errorfile <file>" :
http-request deny deny_status 400 errorfile /etc/haproxy/errorfiles/400badreq.http
It may also be an error file from an http-errors section, adding "errorfiles
<name>" :
http-request deny errorfiles my-errors # use 403 error from "my-errors" section
When defined, this error message is set in the HTTP transaction. The tarpit rule
is also concerned by this change.
It is now possible to import in a proxy, fully or partially, error files
declared in an http-errors section. It may be done using the "errorfiles"
directive, followed by a name and optionally a list of status code. If there is
no status code specified, all error files of the http-errors section are
imported. Otherwise, only error files associated to the listed status code are
imported. For instance :
http-errors my-errors
errorfile 400 ...
errorfile 403 ...
errorfile 404 ...
frontend frt
errorfiles my-errors 403 404 # ==> error 400 not imported
Now, by default, when a rule performing a rewrite on an HTTP message fails, an
internal error is triggered. Before, the failure was ignored. But most of users
are not aware of this behavior. And it does not happen very often because the
buffer reserve space in large enough. So it may be surprising. Returning an
internal error makes the rewrite failure explicit. If it is acceptable to
silently ignore it, the strict rewriting mode can be disabled.
It is now possible to explicitly instruct rewriting rules to be strict or not
towards errors. It means that in this mode, an internal error is trigger if a
rewrite rule fails. The HTTP action "strict-mode" can be used to enable or
disable the strict rewriting mode. It can be used in an http-request and an
http-response ruleset.
For now, by default the strict rewriting mode is disabled. Because it is the
current behavior. But it will be changed in another patch.
The stats field ST_F_EINT has been added to report internal errors encountered
per proxy, per listener and per server. It appears in the CLI export and on the
HTML stats page.
The section 7.3.7. is now dedicated to internal sample fetches. For now, only
HTX sample fetches are referenced in this section. But it should contain the
documentation of all sample fetches reserved to an internal use, for debugging
or testing purposes.
Modifies the existing sample extraction methods (smp_fetch_ssl_x_i_dn,
smp_fetch_ssl_x_s_dn) to accommodate a third argument that indicates the
DN should be returned in LDAP v3 format. When the third argument is
present, the new function (ssl_sock_get_dn_formatted) is called with
three parameters including the X509_NAME, a buffer containing the format
argument, and a buffer for the output. If the supplied format matches
the supported format string (currently only "rfc2253" is supported), the
formatted value is extracted into the supplied output buffer using
OpenSSL's X509_NAME_print_ex and BIO_s_mem. 1 is returned when a dn
value is retrieved. 0 is returned when a value is not retrieved.
Argument validation is added to each of the related sample
configurations to ensure the third argument passed is either blank or
"rfc2253" using strcmp. An error is returned if the third argument is
present with any other value.
Documentation was updated in configuration.txt and it was noted during
preliminary reviews that a CLEANUP patch should follow that adjusts the
documentation. Currently, this patch and the existing documentation are
copied with some minor revisions for each sample configuration. It
might be better to have one entry for all of the samples or entries for
each that reference back to a primary entry that explains the sample in
detail.
Special thanks to Chris, Willy, Tim and Aleks for the feedback.

in the context of seamless reload and busy polling, older processes will
create unecessary cpu conflicts; we can assume there is no need for busy
polling for old processes which are waiting to be terminated.
This patch is not a bug fix itself but might be a good stability
improvment when you are un the context of frequent seamless reloads with
a high "hard-stop-after" value; for that reasons I think this patch
should be backported in all 2.x versions.

This action is very similar to "replace-uri" except that it only acts on the
path component. This is assumed to better match users' expectations when they
used to rely on "replace-uri" in HTTP/1 because mostly origin forms were used
in H1 while mostly absolute URI form is used in H2, and their rules very often
start with a '/', and as such do not match.
It could help users to get this backported to 2.0 and 2.1.
As discussed in the thread below [1], the debug converter is currently
not of much use given that it's only built when DEBUG_EXPR is set, and
it is limited to stderr only.
This patch changes this to make it take an optional prefix and an optional
target sink so that it can log to stdout, stderr or a ring buffer. The
default output is the "buf0" ring buffer, that can be consulted from the
CLI.
[1] https://www.mail-archive.com/haproxy@formilux.org/msg35671.html
Note: if this patch is backported, it also requires the following commit to
work: 46dfd78cbf ("BUG/MINOR: sample: always check converters' arguments").
With H2 deployments becoming more common, replace-uri starts to hit
users by not always matching absolute URIs due to rules expecting the
URI to start with a '/'.
As mentionned in bug #405 we continue to reference architecture.txt from
places in the doc despite this file not being packaged for many years.
Better drop the reference if it's confusing.
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?
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.
Add clarification and example to string matching on binary samples,
as comparison stops at first null byte due to strncmp behaviour.
Backporting all the way down to 1.5 is suggested as it might save
from headaches.

The use-service action may be used in tcp-request and http-request rules. It was
added to customize HAproxy reply to a client using an applet (initially a lua
applet). But the documentation was missing.
This patch may be backported as far as 1.6.
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.
INITCALLs are used a lot in the code now and were not documented, resulting
in each user having to grep for functions in other files. This doc is not
perfect but aims at improving the situation. It documents what's been
available since 1.9 and may be backported there if it helps though it's
unlikely to be needed as it's mostly aimed at developers.
The limitation on the first chunk for chunked requests was true for the legacy
HTTP mode. But, it does not exist with the HTX. Becaue, the legacy HTTP mode was
removed in 2.1, this limitation does not exist anymore.

This patch is easy to review: let's call parse_logsrv() function to parse
"log" directive as this is already for other sections for proxies.
This enable us to log incoming TCP connections for the listeners for "peers"
sections.
Update the documentation for "peers" section.
These keywords received a second argument with commit ae6f125 ("MINOR:
sample: add us/ms support to date/http_date"). Each argument is optional,
it's not either both or none.

Issue#342
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.
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 global config parsing, we currently expect to have a possible no
keyword (KWN_NO), but we never allow it in config parsing.
another patch could have been to simply remove the code handling a
possible KWN_NO.
take this opportunity to update documentation of set-dumpable.
