It is possible to create a http capture rule which points to a capture slot
id which does not exist.
Current patch prevent this when parsing configuration and prevent running
configuration which contains such rules.
This configuration is now invalid:
frontend f
bind :8080
http-request capture req.hdr(User-Agent) id 0
default_backend b
this one as well:
frontend f
bind :8080
declare capture request len 32 # implicit id is 0 here
http-request capture req.hdr(User-Agent) id 1
default_backend b
It applies of course to both http-request and http-response rules.
Causes HAProxy to emit a static string to the agent on every check,
so that you can independently control multiple services running
behind a single agent port.
The direction (request or response) is not propagated in the
sample fecthes called throught Lua. This patch adds the direction
status in some structs (hlua_txn and hlua_smp) to make sure that
the sample fetches will be called with all the information.
The converters can not access to a TXN object, so there are not
impacted the direction. However, the samples used as input of the
Lua converter wrapper are initiliazed with the direction. Thereby,
the struct smp stay consistent.
[wt: needs to be backported to 1.6]
When DEBUG_MEMORY_POOLS is used, we now use the link pointer at the end
of the pool to store a pointer to the pool, and to control it during
pool_free2() in order to serve four purposes :
- at any instant we can know what pool an object was allocated from
when examining memory, hence how we should possibly decode it ;
- it serves to detect double free when they happen, as the pointer
cannot be valid after the element is linked into the pool ;
- it serves to detect if an element is released in the wrong pool ;
- it serves as a canary, to detect if some buffers experienced an
overflow before being release.
All these elements will definitely help better troubleshoot strange
situations, or at least confirm that certain conditions did not happen.
When debugging a core file, it's sometimes convenient to be able to
visit the released entries in the pools (typically last released
session). Unfortunately the first bytes of these entries are destroyed
by the link elements of the pool. And of course, most structures have
their most accessed elements at the beginning of the structure (typically
flags). Let's add a build-time option DEBUG_MEMORY_POOLS which allocates
an extra pointer in each pool to put the link at the end of each pool
item instead of the beginning.
Sometimes analysing a core file isn't easy due to shared memory pools.
Let's add a build option to disable this. It's not enabled by default,
it could be backported to older versions.
Basically, it's ill-defined and shouldn't really be used going forward.
We can't guarantee that resolvers will do the 'legwork' for us and
actually resolve CNAMES when we request the ANY query-type. Case in point

HAProxy can't handle that response correctly.
Rather than try to build in support for resolving CNAMEs presented
without an A record in an answer section (which may be a valid
improvement further on), this change just skips ANY record types
altogether. A and AAAA are much more well-defined and predictable.
Notably, this commit preserves the implicit "Prefer IPV6 behavior."
Furthermore, ANY query type by default is a bad idea: (from Robin on
HAProxy's ML):
Using ANY queries for this kind of stuff is considered by most people
to be a bad practice since besides all the things you named it can
lead to incomplete responses. Basically a resolver is allowed to just
return whatever it has in cache when it receives an ANY query instead
of actually doing an ANY query at the authoritative nameserver. Thus
if it only received queries for an A record before you do an ANY query
you will not get an AAAA record even if it is actually available since
the resolver doesn't have it in its cache. Even worse if before it
only got MX queries, you won't get either A or AAAA
This is equivalent to commit 2af207a ("MEDIUM: tcp: implement tcp-ut
bind option to set TCP_USER_TIMEOUT") except that this time it works
on the server side. The purpose is to detect dead server connections
even when checks are rare, disabled, or after a soft reload (since
checks are disabled there as well), and to ensure client connections
will get killed faster.
I would like to contribute the following fix to enable the Linux s390x
platform. The fix was built against today's git master. I've attached the
patch for review. Depending on your buildbot/jenkins/? requirements I can
set up a virtual machine for automated building/testing of the package in
this environment.
This is done by adding EVP_PKEY_EC type in supported types for the CA private
key when we get the message digest used to sign a generated X509 certificate.
So now, we support DSA, RSA and EC private keys.
And to be sure, when the type of the private key is not directly supported, we
get its default message digest using the function
'EVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_nid'.
We also use the key of the default certificate instead of generated it. So we
are sure to use the same key type instead of always using a RSA key.
First, the LRU cache must be initialized after the configuration parsing to
correctly set its size.
Next, the function 'ssl_sock_set_generated_cert' returns -1 when an error occurs
(0 if success). In that case, the caller is responsible to free the memory
allocated for the certificate.
Finally, when a SSL certificate is generated by HAProxy but cannot be inserted
in the cache, it must be freed when the SSL connection is closed. This happens
when 'tune.ssl.ssl-ctx-cache-size' is set to 0.
htonll and ntohll were defined in 5b4dd683cb but on osx they are already
defined in sys/_endian.h. So, we check if they are defined before
declaring them.
[wt: no backport needed]
When debugging an issue, sometimes it can be useful to be able to use
byte 0 to poison memory areas, resulting in the same effect as a calloc().
This patch changes the default mem_poison_byte to -1 to disable it so that
all positive values are usable.
Michael Ezzell reported a bug causing haproxy to segfault during startup
when trying to send syslog message from Lua. The function __send_log() can
be called with *p that is NULL and/or when the configuration is not fully
parsed, as is the case with Lua.
This patch fixes this problem by using individual vectors instead of the
pre-generated strings log_htp and log_htp_rfc5424.
Also, this patch fixes a problem causing haproxy to write the wrong pid in
the logs -- the log_htp(_rfc5424) strings were generated at the haproxy
start, but "pid" value would be changed after haproxy is started in
daemon/systemd mode.
This patch adds a new RFC5424-specific log-format for the structured-data
that is automatically send by __send_log() when the sender is in RFC5424
mode.
A new statement "log-format-sd" should be used in order to set log-format
for the structured-data part in RFC5424 formatted syslog messages.
Example:
log-format-sd [exampleSDID@1234\ bytes=\"%B\"\ status=\"%ST\"]
The function __send_log() iterates over senders and passes the header as
the first vector to sendmsg(), thus it can send a logger-specific header
in each message.
A new logger arguments "format rfc5424" should be used in order to enable
RFC5424 header format. For example:
log 10.2.3.4:1234 len 2048 format rfc5424 local2 info
At the moment we have to call snprintf() for every log line just to
rebuild a constant. Thanks to sendmsg(), we send the message in 3 parts:
time-based header, proxy-specific hostname+log-tag+pid, session-specific
message.
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,

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.
Before this patch, two type of custom actions exists: ACT_ACTION_CONT and
ACT_ACTION_STOP. ACT_ACTION_CONT is a non terminal action and ACT_ACTION_STOP is
a terminal action.
Note that ACT_ACTION_STOP is not used in HAProxy.
This patch remove this behavior. Only type type of custom action exists, and it
is called ACT_CUSTOM. Now, the custion action can return a code indicating the
required behavior. ACT_RET_CONT wants that HAProxy continue the current rule
list evaluation, and ACT_RET_STOP wants that HAPRoxy stops the the current rule
list evaluation.
This patch is inspired by Bowen Ni's proposal and it is based on his first
implementation:
With Lua integration in HAProxy 1.6, one can change the request method,
path, uri, header, response header etc except response line.
I'd like to contribute the following methods to allow modification of the
response line.
[...]
There are two new keywords in 'http-response' that allows you to rewrite
them in the native HAProxy config. There are also two new APIs in Lua that
allows you to do the same rewriting in your Lua script.
Example:
Use it in HAProxy config:
*http-response set-code 404*
Or use it in Lua script:
*txn.http:res_set_reason("Redirect")*
I dont take the full patch because the manipulation of the "reason" is useless.
standard reason are associated with each returned code, and unknown code can
take generic reason.
So, this patch can set the status code, and the reason is automatically adapted.
This was the first transparent proxy technology supported by haproxy
circa 2005 but it was obsoleted in 2007 by Tproxy 4.0 which removed a
lot of the earlier versions' shortcomings and was finally merged into
the kernel. Since nobody has been using cttproxy for many years now
and nobody has even just tried to compile the files, it's time to
remove it. The doc was updated as well.
This patch removes the special stick tables types names and
use the standard sample type names. This avoid the maintainance
of two types and remove the switch/case for matching a sample
type for each stick table type.
This patch is the first step for sample integration. Actually
the stick tables uses her own data type, and some converters
must be called to convert sample type to stick-tables types.
This patch removes the stick-table types and replace it by
the sample types. This prevent:
- Maintenance of two types of converters
- reduce the code using the samples converters
This patch normalize the return code of the configuration parsers. Before
these changes, the tcp action parser returned -1 if fail and 0 for the
succes. The http action returned 0 if fail and 1 if succes.
The normalisation does:
- ACT_RET_PRS_OK for succes
- ACT_RET_PRS_ERR for failure
Each (http|tcp)-(request|response) action use the same method
for looking up the action keyword during the cofiguration parsing.
This patch mutualize the code.
This patch merges the conguration keyword struct. Each declared configuration
keyword struct are similar with the others. This patch simplify the code.
Action function can return 3 status:
- error if the action encounter fatal error (like out of memory)
- yield if the action must terminate his work later
- continue in other cases
For performances considerations, some actions are not processed by remote
function. They are directly processed by the function. Some of these actions
does the same things but for different processing part (request / response).
This patch give the same name for the same actions, and change the normalization
of the other actions names.
This patch is ONLY a rename, it doesn't modify the code.
This patch group the action name in one file. Some action are called
many times and need an action embedded in the action caller. The main
goal is to have only one header file grouping all definitions.
This mark permit to detect if the action tag is over the allowed range.
- Normally, this case doesn't appear
- If it appears, it is processed by ded fault case of the switch
