appsessions started to be deprecated with the introduction of stick
tables, and the latter are much more powerful and flexible, and in
addition they are replicated between nodes and maintained across
reloads. Let's now remove appsession completely.
Since sample fetches are not always available in the response phase,
this patch implements %HQ such that:
GET /foo?bar=baz HTTP/1.0
...would be logged as:
?bar=baz
These ones are considered safe as they have already been reused.
They will be useful in "aggressive" and "always" http-reuse modes
in order to place the first request of a connection with the least
risk.
For now it only supports "never", meaning that we never want to reuse a
shared connection, and "always", meaning that we can use any connection
that was not marked private. When "never" is set, this also implies that
no idle connection may become a shared one.
This flag is set on an outgoing connection when this connection gets
some properties that must not be shared with other connections, such
as dynamic transparent source binding, SNI or a proxy protocol header,
or an authentication challenge from the server. This will be needed
later to implement connection reuse.
This function is now dedicated to idle connections only, which means
that it must not be used without any endpoint nor anything not a
connection. The connection remains attached to the stream interface.
This list member will be used to attach a connection to a list of
idle, reusable or queued connections. It's unused for now. Given
that it's not expected to be used more than a few times per session,
the member was put after the target, in the area starting at the
second cache line of the structure.
For now it's not populated but we have the list entry. It will carry
all idle connections that sessions don't want to share. They may be
used later to reclaim connections upon socket shortage for example.
This function only detaches the endpoint from the stream-int and
optionally returns the original pointer. This will be needed to
steal idle connections from other connections.
Since we now always call this function with the reuse parameter cleared,
let's simplify the function's logic as it cannot return the existing
connection anymore. The savings on this inline function are appreciable
(240 bytes) :
$ size haproxy.old haproxy.new
text data bss dec hex filename
1020383 40816 36928 1098127 10c18f haproxy.old
1020143 40816 36928 1097887 10c09f haproxy.new
This patch removes the 32 bits unsigned integer and the 32 bit signed
integer. It replaces these types by a unique type 64 bit signed.
This makes easy the usage of integer and clarify signed and unsigned use.
With the previous version, signed and unsigned are used ones in place of
others, and sometimes the converter loose the sign. For example, divisions
are processed with "unsigned", if one entry is negative, the result is
wrong.
Note that the integer pattern matching and dotted version pattern matching
are already working with signed 64 bits integer values.
There is one user-visible change : the "uint()" and "sint()" sample fetch
functions which used to return a constant integer have been replaced with
a new more natural, unified "int()" function. These functions were only
introduced in the latest 1.6-dev2 so there's no impact on regular
deployments.
These are the 64-bit equivalent of htonl() and ntohl(). They're a bit
tricky in order to avoid expensive operations.
The principle consists in letting the compiler detect we're playing
with a union and simplify most or all operations. The asm-optimized
htonl() version involving bswap (x86) / rev (arm) / other is a single
operation on little endian, or a NOP on big-endian. In both cases,
this lets the compiler "see" that we're rebuilding a 64-bit word from
two 32-bit quantities that fit into a 32-bit register. In big endian,
the whole code is optimized out. In little endian, with a decent compiler,
a few bswap and 2 shifts are left, which is the minimum acceptable.
This patch adds 3 functions for 64 bit integer conversion.
* lltoa_r : converts signed 64 bit integer to string
* read_uint64 : converts from string to signed 64 bits integer with capping
* read_int64 : converts from string to unsigned 64 bits integer with capping
This patch introduces three new functions which can be used to find a
server in a farm using different server information:
- server unique id (srv->puid)
- server name
- find best match using either name or unique id
When performing best matching, the following applies:
- use the server name first (if provided)
- use the server id if provided
in any case, the function can update the caller about mismatches
encountered.
This flag aims at reporting whether the server unique id (srv->puid) has
been forced by the administrator in HAProxy's configuration.
If not set, it means HAProxy has generated automatically the server's
unique id.
function proxy_find_best_match can update the caller by updating an int
provided in argument.
For now, proxy_find_best_match hardcode bit values 0x01, 0x02 and 0x04,
which is not understandable when reading a code exploiting them.
This patch defines 3 macros with a more explicit wording, so further
reading of a code exploiting the magic bit values will be understandable
more easily.
Change si_alloc_conn() to call si_release_endpoint() instead of
open-coding the connection releasing code when reuse is disabled.
This fuses the code with the one already dealing with applets, makes
it shorter and helps centralizing the connection freeing logic at a
single place.
The commit "MEDIUM: vars: move the session variables to the session, not the stream" (ebcd4844e82a4198ea5d98fe491a46267da1d1ec")
moves the variables from the stream to the session. It forgot to remove
the stream definition of the "vars_sess".
The new "sni" server directive takes a sample fetch expression and
uses its return value as a hostname sent as the TLS SNI extension.
A typical use case consists in forwarding the front connection's SNI
value to the server in a bridged HTTPS forwarder :
sni ssl_fc_sni
ssl_sock_set_servername() is used to set the SNI hostname on an
outgoing connection. This function comes from code originally
provided by Christopher Faulet of Qualys.
This option enables overriding source IP address in a HTTP request. It is
useful when we want to set custom source IP (e.g. front proxy rewrites address,
but provides the correct one in headers) or we wan't to mask source IP address
for privacy or compliance.
It acts on any expression which produces correct IP address.
This modification makes possible to use sample_fetch_string() in more places,
where we might need to fetch sample values which are not plain strings. This
way we don't need to fetch string, and convert it into another type afterwards.
When using aliased types, the caller should explicitly check which exact type
was returned (e.g. SMP_T_IPV4 or SMP_T_IPV6 for SMP_T_ADDR).
All usages of sample_fetch_string() are converted to use new function.
This is in order to avoid conflicting with NetBSD popcount* functions
since 6.x release, the final l to mentions the argument is a long like
NetBSD does.
This patch could be backported to 1.5 to fix the build issue there as well.
This cache is used by 51d converter. The input User-Agent string, the
converter args and a random seed are used as a hashing key. The cached
entries contains a pointer to the resulting string for specific
User-Agent string detection.
The cache size can be tuned using 51degrees-cache-size parameter.
Moved 51Degrees code from src/haproxy.c, src/sample.c and src/cfgparse.c
into a separate files src/51d.c and include/import/51d.h.
Added two new functions init_51degrees() and deinit_51degrees(), updated
Makefile and other code reorganizations related to 51Degrees.
When Lua is disabled, the alternate functions must have the same
prototype as the original ones, otherwise we get such warnings :
src/stream.c:278:27: warning: too many arguments in call to 'hlua_ctx_destroy'
hlua_ctx_destroy(&s->hlua);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^
No backport is needed.
This patch adds two functions used for variable acces using the
variable full name. If the variable doesn't exists in the variable
pool name, it is created.
This patch adds support of variables during the processing of each stream. The
variables scope can be set as 'session', 'transaction', 'request' or 'response'.
The variable type is the type returned by the assignment expression. The type
can change while the processing.
The allocated memory can be controlled for each scope and each request, and for
the global process.
fix include dependency. The header file sample.h don't need to known
the content of the struct arg, so I remove the include, and replace
it by a simple pointer declaration.
This prevent an include dependecy issue with the next patch.
This patch permits to register a new keyword with the keyword "tcp-request content"
'tcp-request connection", tcp-response content", http-request" and "http-response"
which is identified only by matching the start of the keyword.
for example, we register the keyword "set-var" with the option "match_pfx"
and the configuration keyword "set-var(var_name)" matchs this entry.
This type is used to accept any type of sample as input, and prevent
any automatic "cast". It runs like the type "ADDR" which accept the
type "IPV4" and "IPV6".
