Now that h1 and legacy HTTP are two distinct things, there's no need
to keep the legacy HTTP parsers in h1.c since they're only used by
the legacy code in proto_http.c, and h1.h doesn't need to include
hdr_idx anymore. This concerns the following functions :
- http_parse_reqline();
- http_parse_stsline();
- http_msg_analyzer();
- http_forward_trailers();
All of these were moved to http_msg.c.
Lots of HTTP code still uses struct http_msg. Not only this code is
still huge, but it's part of the legacy interface. Let's move most
of these functions to a separate file http_msg.c to make it more
visible which file relies on what. It's mostly symmetrical with
what is present in http_htx.c.
The function http_transform_header_str() which used to rely on two
function pointers to look up a header was simplified to rely on
two variants http_legacy_replace_{,full_}header(), making both
sides of the function much simpler.
No code was changed beyond these moves.
All the HTX definition is self-contained and doesn't really depend on
anything external since it's a mostly protocol. In addition, some
external similar files (like h2) also placed in common used to rely
on it, making it a bit awkward.
This patch moves the two htx.h files into a single self-contained one.
The historical dependency on sample.h could be also removed since it
used to be there only for http_meth_t which is now in http.h.
There were a number of ugly setsockopt() calls spread all over
proto_http.c, proto_htx.c and hlua.c just to manipulate the front
connection's TOS, mark or TCP quick-ack. These ones entirely relied
on the connection, its existence, its control layer's presence, and
its addresses. Worse, inet_set_tos() was placed in proto_http.c,
exported and used from the two other ones, surrounded in #ifdefs.
This patch moves this code to connection.h and makes the other ones
rely on it without ifdefs.
If we try to receive before the connection is established, we lose the
send event and are not woken up anymore once the connection is established.
This was diagnosed by Olivier.
No backport is needed.
There are some situations where we need to wait for the other side to
be connected. None of the current blocking flags support this. It used
to work more or less by accident using the old flags. Let's add a new
flag to mention we're blocking on this, it's removed by si_chk_rcv()
when a connection is established. It should be enough for now.
The master is not supposed to run (at the moment) any task before the
polling loop, the created tasks should be run only in the workers but in
the master they should be disabled or removed.
No backport needed.
To ease the fast forwarding and the infinte forwarding on HTX proxies, 2
functions have been added to let the channel be almost aware of the way data are
stored in its buffer. By calling these functions instead of legacy ones, we are
sure to forward the right amount of data.
Now, the function htx_from_buf() will set the buffer's length to its size
automatically. In return, the caller should call htx_to_buf() at the end to be
sure to leave the buffer hosting the HTX message in the right state. When the
caller can use the function htxbuf() to get the HTX message without any update
on the underlying buffer.
The small HTX overhead is enough to make the system perform multiple
reads and unaligned memory copies. Here we provide a function whose
purpose is to reduce the apparent room in a buffer by the size of the
overhead for DATA blocks, which is the struct htx plus 2 blocks (one
for DATA, one for the end of message so that small blocks can fit at
once). The muxes using HTX will be encouraged to use this one instead
of b_room() to compute the available buffer room and avoid filling
their demux buf with more data than can fit at once into the HTX
buffer.
This one is used a lot during transfers, let's avoid resetting its
size when there are already data in the buffer since it implies the
size is correct.
We currently have conn_get_best_mux() to return the best mux for a
given protocol name, side and proxy mode. But we need the mux entry
as well in order to fix the bind_conf and servers at the end of the
config parsing. Let's split the function in two parts. It's worth
noting that the <conn> argument is never used anymore so this part
is eligible to some cleanup.
First, to be called on HTX streams, a filter must explicitly be declared as
compatible by setting the flag STRM_FLT_FL_HAS_FILTERS on the filter's config at
HAProxy startup. This flag is checked when a filter implementation is attached
to a stream.
Then, some changes have been made on HTTP callbacks. The callback http_payload
has been added to filter HTX data. It will be called on HTX streams only. It
replaces the callbacks http_data, http_chunk_trailers and http_forward_data,
called on legacy HTTP streams only and marked as deprecated. The documention
(once updated)) will give all information to implement this new callback. Other
HTTP callbacks will be called for HTX and HTTP legacy streams. So it is the
filter's responsibility to known which kind of data it handles. The macro
IS_HTX_STRM should be used in such cases.
There is at least a noticeable changes in the way data are forwarded. In HTX,
after the call to the callback http_headers, all the headers are considered as
forwarded. So, in http_payload, only the body and eventually the trailers will
be filtered.
During startup, after the configuration parsing, all HTTP error messages
(errorloc, errorfile or default messages) are converted into HTX messages and
stored in dedicated buffers. We use it to return errors in the HTX analyzers
instead of using ugly OOB blocks.
Instead, we now use the htx_sl coming from the HTX message. It avoids to have
too H1 specific code in version-agnostic parts. Of course, the concept of the
start-line is higly influenced by the H1, but the structure htx_sl can be
adapted, if necessary. And many things depend on a start-line during HTTP
analyzis. Using the structure htx_sl also avoid boring conversions between HTX
version and H1 version.
If there is no start-line, this offset is set to -1. Otherwise, it is the
relative address where the start-line is stored in the data block. When the
start-line is added, replaced or removed, this offset is updated accordingly. On
remove, if the start-line is no set and if the next block is a start-line, the
offset is updated. Finally, when an HTX structure is defragmented, the offset is
also updated accordingly.
The HTX start-line is now a struct. It will be easier to extend, if needed. Same
info can be found, of course. In addition it is now possible to set flags on
it. It will be used to set some infos about the message.
Some macros and functions have been added in proto/htx.h to help accessing
different parts of the start-line.
The function htx_find_blk() returns the HTX block containing data with a given
offset, relatively to the beginning of the HTX message. It is a good way to skip
outgoing data and find the first HTX block not already processed.
the functions htx_get_next() and htx_get_prev() are used to iterate on an HTX
message using blocks position. With htx_get_next_blk() and htx_get_prev_blk(),
it is possible to do the same, but with HTX blocks. Of course, internally, we
rely on position's versions to do so. But it is handy for callers to not take
care of the blocks position.
The function htx_add_data_before() can be used to add an HTX block before
another one. For instance, it could be used to add some data before the
end-of-message marker.
Time to time, the need arises to get some info owned by the multiplexer about a
connection stream from the upper layer. Today we really need to get some dates
and durations specific to the conn_stream. It is only true for the mux H1 and
H2. Otherwise it will be impossible to have correct times reported in the logs.
To do so, the structure cs_info has been defined to provide all info we ever
need on a conn_stream from the upper layer. Of course, it is the first step. So
this structure will certainly envloved. But for now, only the bare minimum is
referenced. On the mux side, the callback get_cs_info() has been added in the
structure mux_ops. Multiplexers can now implement it, if necessary, to return a
pointer on a structure cs_info. And finally, the function si_get_cs_info()
should be used from the upper layer. If the stream interface is not attached to
a connection stream, this function returns NULL, likewise if the callback
get_cs_info() is not defined for the corresponding mux.
htx_cut_data_blk() is used to cut the beginning of a DATA block after a
part of it was tranferred. It simply advances the address, reduces the
advertised length and updates the htx's total data count.
It looks like we forgot to report HTX when listing the muxes and their
respective protocols, leading to "NONE" being displayed. Let's report
"HTX" and "HTTP|HTX" since both will exist. Also fix a minor typo in
the output message.
Instead of just storing the last connection in the session, store all of
the connections, for at most MAX_SRV_LIST (currently 5) targets.
That way we can do keepalive on more than 1 outgoing connection when the
client uses HTTP/2.
signal_init(), init_log(), init_stream(), and init_task() all used to
only preset some values and lists. This needs to be done very early to
provide a reliable interface to all other users. The calls used to be
explicit in haproxy.c:init(). Now they're placed in initcalls at the
STG_PREPARE stage. The functions are not exported anymore.
Instead of exporting a number of pools and having to manually delete
them in deinit() or to have dedicated destructors to remove them, let's
simply kill all pools on deinit().
For this a new function pool_destroy_all() was introduced. As its name
implies, it destroys and frees all pools (provided they don't have any
user anymore of course).
This allowed to remove 4 implicit destructors, 2 explicit ones, and 11
individual calls to pool_destroy(). In addition it properly removes
the mux_pt_ctx pool which was not cleared on exit (no backport needed
here since it's 1.9 only). The sig_handler pool doesn't need to be
exported anymore and became static now.
This commit replaces the explicit pool creation that are made in
constructors with a pool registration. Not only this simplifies the
pools declaration (it can be done on a single line after the head is
declared), but it also removes references to pools from within
constructors. The only remaining create_pool() calls are those
performed in init functions after the config is parsed, so there
is no more user of potentially uninitialized pool now.
It has been the opportunity to remove no less than 12 constructors
and 6 init functions.
Building with musl and gcc-5.3 for MIPS returns this :
include/common/buf.h: In function 'b_dist':
include/common/buf.h:252:2: error: unknown type name 'ssize_t'
ssize_t dist = to - from;
^
Including stdint or stddef is not sufficient there to get ssize_t,
unistd is needed as well. It's likely that other platforms will have
the same issue. This patch also addresses it in ist.h and memory.h.
Building on 32 bits gives this :
include/proto/htx.h: In function 'htx_dump':
include/proto/htx.h:443:25: warning: format '%lu' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 8 has type 'uint64_t {aka long long unsigned int}' [-Wformat=]
fprintf(stderr, "htx:%p [ size=%u - data=%u - used=%u - wrap=%s - extra=%lu]\n",
^
In htx_dump(), fprintf() uses %lu but the value is an uint64_t so it
doesn't match on 32-bit. Let's cast this to unsigned long long and use
%llu instead.
When we create a connection, if we have to defer the conn_stream and the
mux creation until we can decide it (ie until the SSL handshake is done, and
the ALPN is decided), store the connection in the stream_interface, so that
we're sure we can destroy it if needed.
If an ALPN (or a NPN) was chosen for a server, defer choosing the mux until
after the SSL handshake is done, and the ALPN/NPN has been negociated, so
that we know which mux to pick.
Right now we measure for each task the cumulated time spent waiting for
the CPU and using it. The timestamp uses a 64-bit integer to report a
nanosecond-level date. This is only enabled when "profiling.tasks" is
enabled, and consumes less than 1% extra CPU on x86_64 when enabled.
The cumulated processing time and wait time are reported in "show sess".
The task's counters are also reset when an HTTP transaction is reset
since the HTTP part pretends to restart on a fresh new stream. This
will make sure we always report correct numbers for each request in
the logs.
This is a new global setting which enables or disables CPU profiling
per task. For now it only sets/resets the variable based on the global
option "profiling.tasks" and supports showing it as well as setting it
from the CLI using "show profiling" and "set profiling". The option will
be used by a future commit. It was done in a way which should ease future
addition of profiling options.
Since we know the time it takes to process everything between two poll()
calls, we can use this as the max latency measurement any task will
experience and average it.
This code does this, and reports in "show activity" the average of this
loop time over the last 1024 poll() loops, for each thread. It will vary
quickly at high loads and slowly under low to moderate loads, depending
on the rate at which poll() is called. The latency a task experiences
is expected to be half of this on average.
At the moment the situation with activity measurement is quite tricky
because the struct activity is defined in global.h and declared in
haproxy.c, with operations made in time.h and relying on freq_ctr
which are defined in freq_ctr.h which itself includes time.h. It's
barely possible to touch any of these files without breaking all the
circular dependency.
Let's move all this stuff to activity.{c,h} and be done with it. The
measurement of active and stolen time is now done in a dedicated
function called just after tv_before_poll() instead of mixing the two,
which used to be a lazy (but convenient) decision.
No code was changed, stuff was just moved around.
Just found that proto/cli.h doesn't build if types/cli.h is not also
included by the caller, as it uses cli_kw_list is used in arguments.
But it's also true for a few other ones like mworker_proc, stream,
and channel, so let's fix this.
The new function signal_unregister() removes every handlers assigned to
a signal. Once the handler list of the signal is empty, the signal is
ignored with SIG_IGN.
This was the largest function of the whole file, taking a rough second
to build alone. Let's move it to a distinct file along with a few
dependencies. Doing so saved about 2 seconds on the total build time.
