With HTTP/2, we'll have to support multiplexed streams. A stream is in
fact the largest part of what we currently call a session, it has buffers,
logs, etc.
In order to catch any error, this commit removes any reference to the
struct session and tries to rename most "session" occurrences in function
names to "stream" and "sess" to "strm" when that's related to a session.
The files stream.{c,h} were added and session.{c,h} removed.
The session will be reintroduced later and a few parts of the stream
will progressively be moved overthere. It will more or less contain
only what we need in an embryonic session.
Sample fetch functions and converters will have to change a bit so
that they'll use an L5 (session) instead of what's currently called
"L4" which is in fact L6 for now.
Once all changes are completed, we should see approximately this :
L7 - http_txn
L6 - stream
L5 - session
L4 - connection | applet
There will be at most one http_txn per stream, and a same session will
possibly be referenced by multiple streams. A connection will point to
a session and to a stream. The session will hold all the information
we need to keep even when we don't yet have a stream.
Some more cleanup is needed because some code was already far from
being clean. The server queue management still refers to sessions at
many places while comments talk about connections. This will have to
be cleaned up once we have a server-side connection pool manager.
Stream flags "SN_*" still need to be renamed, it doesn't seem like
any of them will need to move to the session.
Abstract namespace sockets ignore the shutdown() call and do not make
it possible to temporarily stop listening. The issue it causes is that
during a soft reload, the new process cannot bind, complaining that the
address is already in use.
This change registers a new pause() function for unix sockets and
completely unbinds the abstract ones since it's possible to rebind
them later. It requires the two previous patches as well as preceeding
fixes.
This fix should be backported into 1.5 since the issue apperas there.
Commit e164e7a removed get_src/get_dst setting in the stream interfaces but
forgot to set it in proto_tcp. Get the feature back because we need it for
logging, transparent mode, ACLs etc... We now rely on the stream interface
direction to know what syscall to use.
One benefit of doing it this way is that we don't use getsockopt() anymore
on outgoing stream interfaces nor on UNIX sockets.
For a long time we had two large accept() functions, one for TCP
sockets instanciating proxies, and another one for UNIX sockets
instanciating the stats interface.
A lot of code was duplicated and both did not work exactly the same way.
Now we have a stream_sock layer accept() called for either TCP or UNIX
sockets, and this function calls the frontend-specific accept() function
which does the rest of the frontend-specific initialisation.
Some code is still duplicated (session & task allocation, stream interface
initialization), and might benefit from having an intermediate session-level
accept() callback to perform such initializations. Still there are some
minor differences that need to be addressed first. For instance, the monitor
nets should only be checked for proxies and not for other connection templates.
Last, we renamed l->private as l->frontend. The "private" pointer in
the listener is only used to store a frontend, so let's rename it to
eliminate this ambiguity. When we later support detached listeners
(eg: FTP), we'll add another field to avoid the confusion.
process_session() is now ready to handle unix stats sockets. This
first step works and old code has not been removed. A cleanup is
required. The stats handler is not unix socket-centric anymore and
should move to dumpstats.c.
All the tasks callbacks had to requeue the task themselves, and update
a global timeout. This was not convenient at all. Now the API has been
simplified. The tasks callbacks only have to update their expire timer,
and return either a pointer to the task or NULL if the task has been
deleted. The scheduler will take care of requeuing the task at the
proper place in the wait queue.
The unix protocol handler had not been updated during the last
stream_sock changes. This has been done now. There is still a
lot of duplicated code between session.c and proto_uxst.c due
to the way the session is handled. Session.c relies on the existence
of a frontend while it does not exist here.
It is easier to see the difference between the stats part (placed
in dumpstats.c) and the unix-stream part (in proto_uxst.c).
The hijacking function still needs to be dynamically set into the
response buffer, and some cleanup is still required, then all those
changes should be forward-ported to the HTTP part. Adding support
for new keywords should not cause trouble now.
This is the first attempt at moving all internal parts from
using struct timeval to integer ticks. Those provides simpler
and faster code due to simplified operations, and this change
also saved about 64 bytes per session.
A new header file has been added : include/common/ticks.h.
It is possible that some functions should finally not be inlined
because they're used quite a lot (eg: tick_first, tick_add_ifset
and tick_is_expired). More measurements are required in order to
decide whether this is interesting or not.
Some function and variable names are still subject to change for
a better overall logics.
There was a missing state for listeners, when they are not listening
but still attached to the protocol. The LI_ASSIGNED state was added
for this purpose. This permitted to clean up the assignment/release
workflow quite a bit. Generic enable/enable_all/disable/disable_all
primitives were added, and a disable_all entry was added to the
struct protocol.
A new file, proto_uxst.c, implements support of PF_UNIX sockets
of type SOCK_STREAM. It relies on generic stream_sock_read/write
and uses its own accept primitive which also tries to be generic.
Right now it only implements an echo service in sight of a general
support for start dumping via unix socket. The echo code is more
of a proof of concept than useful code.
