The `socket.tcp.connect` method of Lua requires at least two parameters: The host and the port. The `Socket.connect` method of haproxy requires only one when a host with a combined port is provided. This stems from the fact that `str2sa_range` is used internally in `hlua_socket_connect`. This very fact unfortunately causes a diversion in the behaviour of Lua's socket class and haproxy's for IPv6 addresses: sock:connect("::1", "80") works fine with Lua, but fails with: connect: cannot parse destination address '::1' in haproxy, because `str2sa_range` parses the trailing `:1` as the port. This patch forcefully adds a `:` to the end of the address iff a port number greater than `0` is given as the second parameter. Technically this breaks backwards compatibility, because the docs state: > The syntax "127.0.0.1:1234" is valid. in this case, the > parameter *port* is ignored. But: The connect() call can only succeed if the second parameter is left out (which causes no breakage) or if the second parameter is an integer or a numeric string. It seems unlikely that someone would provide an address with a port number and would also provide a second parameter containing a number other than zero. Thus I feel this breakage is warranted to fix the mismatch between haproxy's socket class and Lua's one. This commit should be backported to haproxy 1.8 only, because of the possible breakage of existing Lua scripts. |
