select, poll and epoll now have their dedicated functions and have
been split into distinct files. Several FD manipulation primitives
have been provided with each poller.
The rest of the code needs to be cleaned to remove traces of
StaticReadEvent/StaticWriteEvent. A trick involving a macro has
temporarily been used right now. Some work needs to be done to
factorize tests and sets everywhere.
logs are handled better with dedicated functions. The HTTP implementation
moved to proto_http.c. It has been cleaned up a bit. Now a frontend with
option httplog and no log will not call the function anymore.
Previously, use of the "usesrc" keyword could silently fail if
either the module was not loaded, or the user did not have enough
permissions. Now the errors are better diagnosed and more appropriate
advices are given.
- stats now support the HEAD method too
- extracted http request from the session
- huge rework of the HTTP parser which is now a 28-state FSM.
- linux-style likely/unlikely macros for optimization hints
- do not create a server socket when there's no server
This patch from Sin Yu makes use of an rbtree for the wait queue,
which will solve the slowdown problem encountered when timeouts
are heterogenous in the configuration. The next step will be to
turn maintain_proxies() into a per-proxy task so that we won't
have to scan them all after each poll() loop.
The tcp-splicing code has been merged, and a doc has been written.
A configuration example has been derived from the previous content
switching sample.
It is now possible to define an errorloc in the backend as well as
in the frontend. The backend's will be used first, and if undefined,
then the frontend's will be used instead. If none is used, then the
original error messages will be used.
The nbconn attribute in the proxies was not relevant anymore because
a frontend A may use backend B and both of them must account for their
respective connections. For this reason, there now are two separate
counters for frontend and backend connections.
The stats page has been updated to reflect the backend, but a separate
line entry for the frontend with error counts would be good.
Note that as of now, beconn may be higher than maxconn, because maxconn
applies to the frontend, while beconn may be increased due to sessions
passed from another frontend.
The files are now stored under :
- include/haproxy for the generic includes
- include/types.h for the structures needed within prototypes
- include/proto.h for function prototypes and inline functions
- src/*.c for the C files
Most include files are now covered by LGPL. A last move still needs
to be done to put inline functions under GPL and not LGPL.
Version has been set to 1.3.0 in the code but some control still
needs to be done before releasing.
