ChangeLog : =========== 2003/04/16 : 1.1.19 - haproxy was NOT RFC compliant because it was case-sensitive on HTTP "Cookie:" and "Set-Cookie:" headers. This caused JVM 1.4 to fail on cookie persistence because it uses "cookie:". Two memcmp() have been replaced with strncasecmp(). 2003/04/02 : 1.1.18 - Haproxy can be compiled with PCRE regex instead of libc regex, by setting REGEX=pcre on the make command line. - HTTP health-checks now use "OPTIONS *" instead of "OPTIONS /". - when explicit source address binding is required, it is now also used for health-checks. - added 'reqpass' and 'reqipass' to allow certain headers but not the request itself. - factored several strings to reduce binary size by about 2 kB. - replaced setreuid() and setregid() with more standard setuid() and setgid(). - added 4 status flags to the log line indicating who ended the connection first, the sessions state, the validity of the cookie, and action taken on the set-cookie header. 2002/10/18 : 1.1.17 - add the notion of "backup" servers, which are used only when all other servers are down. - make Set-Cookie return "" instead of "(null)" when the server has no cookie assigned (useful for backup servers). - "log" now supports an optionnal level name (info, notice, err ...) above which nothing is sent. - replaced some strncmp() with memcmp() for better efficiency. - added "capture cookie" option which logs client and/or server cookies - cleaned up/down messages and dump servers states upon SIGHUP - added a redirection feature for errors : "errorloc " - now we won't insist on connecting to a dead server, even with a cookie, unless option "persist" is specified. - added HTTP/408 response for client request time-out and HTTP/50[234] for server reply time-out or errors. 2002/09/01 : 1.1.16 - implement HTTP health checks when option "httpchk" is specified. 2002/08/07 : 1.1.15 - replaced setpgid()/setpgrp() with setsid() for better portability, because setpgrp() doesn't have the same meaning under Solaris, Linux, and OpenBSD. 2002/07/20 : 1.1.14 - added "postonly" cookie mode 2002/07/15 : 1.1.13 - tv_diff used inverted parameters which led to negative times ! 2002/07/13 : 1.1.12 - fixed stats monitoring, and optimized some tv_* for most common cases. - replaced temporary 'newhdr' with 'trash' to reduce stack size - made HTTP errors more HTML-fiendly. - renamed strlcpy() to strlcpy2() because of a slightly difference between their behaviour (return value), to avoid confusion. - restricted HTTP messages to HTTP proxies only - added a 502 message when the connection has been refused by the server, to prevent clients from believing this is a zero-byte HTTP 0.9 reply. - changed 'Cache-control:' from 'no-cache="set-cookie"' to 'private' when inserting a cookie, because some caches (apache) don't understand it. - fixed processing of server headers when client is in SHUTR state 2002/07/04 : - automatically close fd's 0,1 and 2 when going daemon ; setpgrp() after setpgid() 2002/06/04 : 1.1.11 - fixed multi-cookie handling in client request to allow clean deletion in insert+indirect mode. Now, only the server cookie is deleted and not all the header. Should now be compliant to RFC2965. - added a "nocache" option to "cookie" to specify that we explicitly want to add a "cache-control" header when we add a cookie. It is also possible to add an "Expires: " to keep compatibility with old/broken caches. 2002/05/10 : 1.1.10 - if a cookie is used in insert+indirect mode, it's desirable that the the servers don't see it. It was not possible to remove it correctly with regexps, so now it's removed automatically. 2002/04/19 : 1.1.9 - don't use snprintf()'s return value as an end of message since it may be larger. This caused bus errors and segfaults in internal libc's getenv() during localtime() in send_log(). - removed dead insecure send_syslog() function and all references to it. - fixed warnings on Solaris due to buggy implementation of isXXXX(). 2002/04/18 : 1.1.8 - option "dontlognull" - fixed "double space" bug in config parser - fixed an uninitialized server field in case of dispatch with no existing server which could cause a segfault during logging. - the pid logged was always the father's, which was wrong for daemons. - fixed wrong level "LOG_INFO" for message "proxy started". 2002/04/13 : - http logging is now complete : - ip:port, date, proxy, server - req_time, conn_time, hdr_time, tot_time - status, size, request - source address 2002/04/12 : 1.1.7 - added option forwardfor - added reqirep, reqidel, reqiallow, reqideny, rspirep, rspidel - added "log global" in "listen" section. 2002/04/09 : - added a new "global" section : - logs - debug, quiet, daemon modes - uid, gid, chroot, nbproc, maxconn 2002/04/08 : 1.1.6 - regex are now chained and not limited anymore. - unavailable server now returns HTTP/502. - increased per-line args limit to 40 - added reqallow/reqdeny to block some request on matches - added HTTP 400/403 responses 2002/04/03 : 1.1.5 - connection logging displayed incorrect source address. - added proxy start/stop and server up/down log events. - replaced log message short buffers with larger trash. - enlarged buffer to 8 kB and replace buffer to 4 kB. 2002/03/25 : 1.1.4 - made rise/fall/interval time configurable 2002/03/22 : 1.1.3 - fixed a bug : cr_expire and cw_expire were inverted in CL_STSHUT[WR] which could lead to loops. 2002/03/21 : 1.1.2 - fixed a bug in buffer management where we could have a loop between event_read() and process_{cli|srv} if R==BUFSIZE-MAXREWRITE. => implemented an adjustable buffer limit. - fixed a bug : expiration of tasks in wait queue timeout is used again, and running tasks are skipped. - added some debug lines for accept events. - send warnings for servers up/down. 2002/03/12 : 1.1.1 - fixed a bug in total failure handling - fixed a bug in timestamp comparison within same second (tv_cmp_ms) 2002/03/10 : 1.1.0 - fixed a few timeout bugs - rearranged the task scheduler subsystem to improve performance, add new tasks, and make it easier to later port to librt ; - allow multiple accept() for one select() wake up ; - implemented internal load balancing with basic health-check ; - cookie insertion and header add/replace/delete, with better strings support. 2002/03/08 - reworked buffer handling to fix a few rewrite bugs, and improve overall performance. - implement the "purge" option to delete server cookies in direct mode. 2002/03/07 - fixed some error cases where the maxfd was not decreased. 2002/02/26 - now supports transparent proxying, at least on linux 2.4. 2002/02/12 - soft stop works again (fixed select timeout computation). - it seems that TCP proxies sometimes cannot timeout. - added a "quiet" mode. - enforce file descriptor limitation on socket() and accept(). 2001/12/30 : release of version 1.0.2 : fixed a bug in header processing 2001/12/19 : release of version 1.0.1 : no MSG_NOSIGNAL on solaris 2001/12/16 : release of version 1.0.0. 2001/12/16 : added syslog capability for each accepted connection. 2001/11/19 : corrected premature end of files and occasional SIGPIPE. 2001/10/31 : added health-check type servers (mode health) which replies OK then closes. 2001/10/30 : added the ability to support standard TCP proxies and HTTP proxies with or without cookies (use keyword http for this). 2001/09/01 : added client/server header replacing with regexps. eg: cliexp ^(Host:\ [^:]*).* Host:\ \1:80 srvexp ^Server:\ .* Server:\ Apache 2000/11/29 : first fully working release with complete FSMs and timeouts. 2000/11/28 : major rewrite 2000/11/26 : first write
