When haproxy decides that session needs to be redispatched it chose a server,
but there is no guarantee for it to be a different one. So, it often
happens that selected server is exactly the same that it was previously, so
a client ends up with a 503 error anyway, especially when one sever has
much bigger weight than others.
Changes from the previous version:
- drop stupid and unnecessary SN_DIRECT changes
- assign_server(): use srvtoavoid to keep the old server and clear s->srv
so SRV_STATUS_NOSRV guarantees that t->srv == NULL (again)
and get_server_rr_with_conns has chances to work (previously
we were passing a NULL here)
- srv_redispatch_connect(): remove t->srv->cum_sess and t->srv->failed_conns
incrementing as t->srv was guaranteed to be NULL
- add avoididx to get_server_rr_with_conns. I hope I correctly understand this code.
- fix http_flush_cookie_flags() and move it to assign_server_and_queue()
directly. The code here was supposed to set CK_DOWN and clear CK_VALID,
but: (TX_CK_VALID | TX_CK_DOWN) == TX_CK_VALID == TX_CK_MASK so:
if ((txn->flags & TX_CK_MASK) == TX_CK_VALID)
txn->flags ^= (TX_CK_VALID | TX_CK_DOWN);
was really a:
if ((txn->flags & TX_CK_MASK) == TX_CK_VALID)
txn->flags &= TX_CK_VALID
Now haproxy logs "--DI" after redispatching connection.
- defer srv->redispatches++ and s->be->redispatches++ so there
are called only if a conenction was redispatched, not only
supposed to.
- don't increment lbconn if redispatcher selected the same sarver
- don't count unsuccessfully redispatched connections as redispatched
connections
- don't count redispatched connections as errors, so:
- the number of connections effectively served by a server is:
srv->cum_sess - srv->failed_conns - srv->retries - srv->redispatches
and
SUM(servers->failed_conns) == be->failed_conns
- requires the "Don't increment server connections too much + fix retries" patch
- needs little more testing and probably some discussion so reverting to the RFC state
