In si_release_endpoint(), if the end point is a connection, because we don't
know which mux to use it, make sure we close the connection before freeing it,
or else, we'd have a fd left for polling, which would point to a now free'd
connection.
This should be backported to 1.9.
As long-time changes have accumulated over time, the exported functions
of the stream-interface were almost all prefixed "si_<something>" while
most private ones (mostly callbacks) were called "stream_int_<something>".
There were still a few confusing exceptions, which were addressed to
follow this shcme :
- stream_sock_read0(), only used internally, was renamed stream_int_read0()
and made static
- stream_int_notify() is only private and was made static
- stream_int_{check_timeouts,report_error,retnclose,register_handler,update}
were renamed si_<something>.
Now it is clearer when checking one of these if it risks to be used outside
or not.
There was a reference to struct stream in conn_free() for the case
where we're freeing a connection that doesn't have a mux attached.
For now we know it's always a stream, and we only need to do it to
put a NULL in s->si[1].end.
Let's do it better by storing the pointer to si[1].end in the context
and specifying that this pointer is always nulled if the mux is null.
This way it allows a connection to detach itself from wherever it's
being used. Maybe we could even get rid of the condition on the mux.
We most often store the mux context there but it can also be something
else while setting up the connection. Better call it "ctx" and know
that it's the owner's context than misleadingly call it mux_ctx and
get caught doing suspicious tricks.
The SUB_CAN_SEND/SUB_CAN_RECV enum values have been confusing a few
times, especially when checking them on reading. After some discussion,
it appears that calling them SUB_RETRY_SEND/SUB_RETRY_RECV more
accurately reflects their purpose since these events may only appear
after a first attempt to perform the I/O operation has failed or was
not completed.
In addition the wait_reason field in struct wait_event which carries
them makes one think that a single reason may happen at once while
it is in fact a set of events. Since the struct is called wait_event
it makes sense that this field is called "events" to indicate it's the
list of events we're subscribed to.
Last, the values for SUB_RETRY_RECV/SEND were swapped so that value
1 corresponds to recv and 2 to send, as is done almost everywhere else
in the code an in the shutdown() call.
When producing an HTX message, we can't rely on the next-level H1 parser
to check and deduplicate the content-length header, so we have to do it
while parsing a message. The algorithm is the exact same as used for H1
messages.
Types DNS_SRVRQ and CS were not referenced in the type to string
conversions, causing possibly misleading outputs in session dumps.
Now instead of showing "NONE" for unknown invalid types names, we
display "!INVAL!" to clear the confusion that may exist in case of
memory corruption for example.
Add a new flag to conn_streams, CS_FL_ERR_PENDING. This is to be set instead
of CS_FL_ERR in case there's still more data to be read, so that we read all
the data before closing.
When using DEBUG_MEMORY_POOLS, when we want to crash, instead of using
*(int *)0 = 0, use *(volatile int *)0 = 0, or clang will just translate it
to a nop, instead of dereferencing 0.
In session, don't keep an infinite number of connection that can idle.
Add a new frontend parameter, "max-session-srv-conns" to set a max number,
with a default value of 5.
Instead of trying to get the session from the connection, which is not
always there, and of course there could be multiple sessions per connection,
provide it with the init() and attach() methods, so that we know the
session for each outgoing stream.
Instead of the old "idle-timeout" mechanism, add a new option,
"pool-purge-delay", that sets the delay before purging idle connections.
Each time the delay happens, we destroy half of the idle connections.
Add a new command, "pool-max-conn" that sets the maximum number of connections
waiting in the orphan idling connections list (as activated with idle-timeout).
Using "-1" means unlimited. Using pools is now dependant on this.
Sadly we didn't have the cumulated number of connections established to
servers till now, so let's now update it per backend and per-server and
report it in the stats. On the stats page it appears in the tooltip
when hovering over the total sessions count field.
Add a new method to mux, "reset", that is used to let the mux know the
connection attempt failed, and we're about to retry, so it just have to
reinit itself. Currently only the H1 mux needs it.
Handle the CLI level in the master CLI. In order to do this, the master
CLI stores the level in the stream. Each command are prefixed by a
"user" or "operator" command before they are forwarded to the target
CLI.
The level can be configured in the haproxy program arguments with the
level keyword: -S /tmp/sock,level,admin -S /tmp/sock2,level,user.
The maximum number of bytes in a DNS name is indeed 255, but we
need to allocate one more byte for the NULL-terminating byte.
Otherwise dns_read_name() might return 255 for a very long name,
causing dns_validate_dns_response() to write a NULL value one
byte after the end of the buffer:
dns_answer_record->name[len] = 0;
The next fields in the struct being filled from the content of the
query, it might have been possible to fill them with non-0 values,
causing for example a strlen() of the name to read past the end of
the struct and access unintended parts of the memory, possibly
leading to a crash.
To be backported to 1.8, probably also 1.7.
Since the data_len field of the dns_answer_item struct was an int16_t,
record length values larger than 2^15-1 were causing an integer
overflow and thus may have been interpreted as negative, making us
read well before the beginning of the buffer.
This might have led to information disclosure or a crash.
To be backported to 1.8, probably also 1.7.
These flags haven't been used for a while. SF_TUNNEL was reintroduced
by commit d62b98c6e ("MINOR: stream: don't set backend's nor response
analysers on SF_TUNNEL") to handle the two-level streams needed to
deal with the first model for H2, and was not removed after this model
was abandonned. SF_INITIALIZED was only set. SF_CONN_TAR was never
referenced at all.
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.
The cache is now able to store and resend HTX messages. When an HTX message is
stored in the cache, the headers are prefixed with their block's info (an
uint32_t), containing its type and its length. Data, on their side, are stored
without any prefix. Only the value is copied in the cache. 2 fields have been
added in the structure cache_entry, hdrs_len and data_len, to known the size, in
the cache, of the headers part and the data part. If the message is chunked, the
trailers are also copied, the same way as data. When the HTX message is
recreated in the cache applet, the trailers size is known removing the headers
length and the data lenght from the total object length.
The CLI proxy was not handling payload. To do that, we needed to keep a
connection active on a server and to transfer each new line over that
connection until we receive a empty line.
The CLI proxy handles the payload in the same way that the CLI do it.
Examples:
$ echo -e "@1;add map #-1 <<\n$(cat data)\n" | socat /tmp/master-socket -
$ socat /tmp/master-socket readline
prompt
master> @1
25130> add map #-1 <<
+ test test
+ test2 test2
+ test3 test3

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.
The new function hpack_encode_path() supports encoding a path into
the ":path" header. It knows about "/" and "/index.html" which use
a single byte, and falls back to literal encoding for other ones,
with a fast path for short paths < 127 bytes.
The new function hpack_encode_scheme() supports encoding a scheme
into the ":scheme" header. It knows about "https" and "http" which use
a single byte, and falls back to literal encoding for other ones.
The new function hpack_encode_method() supports encoding a method.
It knows about GET and POST which use a single byte, and falls back
to literal encoding for other ones.
This header exists with 7 different values, it's worth taking them
into account for the encoding, hence these functions. One of them
makes use of an integer only and computes the 3 output bytes in case
of literal. The other one benefits from the knowledge of an existing
string, which for example exists in the case of H1 to H2 encoding.
For long header values whose index is known, hpack_encodde_long_idx()
may now be used. This function emits the short index and follows with
the header's value.
Most direct calls to HPACK functions are made to encode short header
fields like methods, schemes or statuses, whose lengths and indexes
are known. Let's have a small function to do this.
We'll need these functions from other inline functions, let's make them
accessible. len_to_bytes() was renamed to hpack_len_to_bytes() since it's
now exposed.
This macro may be used to block constant propagation that lets the compiler
detect a possible NULL dereference on a variable resulting from an explicit
assignment in an impossible check. Sometimes a function is called which does
safety checks and returns NULL if safe conditions are not met. The place
where it's called cannot hit this condition and dereferencing the pointer
without first checking it will make the compiler emit a warning about a
"potential null pointer dereference" which is hard to work around. This
macro "washes" the pointer and prevents the compiler from emitting tests
branching to undefined instructions. It may only be used when the developer
is absolutely certain that the conditions are guaranteed and that the
pointer passed in argument cannot be NULL by design.
A typical use case is a top-level function doing this :
if (frame->type == HEADERS)
parse_frame(frame);
Then parse_frame() does this :
void parse_frame(struct frame *frame)
{
const char *frame_hdr;
frame_hdr = frame_hdr_start(frame);
if (*frame_hdr == FRAME_HDR_BEGIN)
process_frame(frame);
}
and :
const char *frame_hdr_start(const struct frame *frame)
{
if (frame->type == HEADERS)
return frame->data;
else
return NULL;
}
Above parse_frame() is only called for frame->type == HEADERS so it will
never get a NULL in return from frame_hdr_start(). Thus it's always safe
to dereference *frame_hdr since the check was already performed above.
It's then safe to address it this way instead of inventing dummy error
code paths that may create real bugs :
void parse_frame(struct frame *frame)
{
const char *frame_hdr;
frame_hdr = frame_hdr_start(frame);
ALREADY_CHECKED(frame_hdr);
if (*frame_hdr == FRAME_HDR_BEGIN)
process_frame(frame);
}
Calling tolower/toupper for each character is slow, a lookup into a
256-byte table is cheaper, especially for common characters used in
header field names which all fit into a cache line. Let's create these
two variables marked weak so that they're included only once.
