The cache makes use of dates advertised by external components, such as "last-modified" or "date". As such these are wall-clock dates, and not internal dates. However, all comparisons are mistakenly made based on the internal monotonic date which is designed to drift from the wall clock one in order to catch up with stolen time (which can sometimes be intense in VMs). As such after some run time some objects may fail to validate or fail to expire depending on the direction of the drift. This is particularly visible when applying an offset to the internal time to force it to wrap soon after startup, as it will be shifted up to 49.7 days in the future depending on the current date; what happens in this case is that the reg-test "cache_expires.vtc" fails on the 3rd test by returning stale contents from the cache at the date of this commit. It is really important that all external dates are compared against "date" and not "now" for this reason. This fix needs to be backported to all versions. |

The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. Please refer to the following files depending on what you're looking for : - INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install HAProxy - BRANCHES to understand the project's life cycle and what version to use - LICENSE for the project's license - CONTRIBUTING for the process to follow to submit contributions The more detailed documentation is located into the doc/ directory : - doc/intro.txt for a quick introduction on HAProxy - doc/configuration.txt for the configuration's reference manual - doc/lua.txt for the Lua's reference manual - doc/SPOE.txt for how to use the SPOE engine - doc/network-namespaces.txt for how to use network namespaces under Linux - doc/management.txt for the management guide - doc/regression-testing.txt for how to use the regression testing suite - doc/peers.txt for the peers protocol reference - doc/coding-style.txt for how to adopt HAProxy's coding style - doc/internals for developer-specific documentation (not all up to date)
