The new global option "tune.fast-forward" can be set to "off" to disable the
data fast-forward. It is an debug option, thus it is internally marked as
experimental. The directive "expose-experimental-directives" must be set
first to use this one. By default, the data fast-forward is enable.
It could be usefull to force to wake the stream up when data are
received. To be sure, evreything works fine in this case. The data
fast-forward is an optim. It must work without it. But some code may rely on
the fact the stream will not be woken up. With this option, it is possible
to spot some hidden bugs.
The ssl_bind_kw structure is exclusively used for crt-list keyword, it
must be named otherwise to remove the confusion.
The structure was renamed ssl_crtlist_kws.
Implement a basic "show quic" CLI handler. This command will be useful
to display various information on all the active QUIC frontend
connections.
This work is heavily inspired by "show sess". Most notably, a global
list of quic_conn has been introduced to be able to loop over them. This
list is stored per thread in ha_thread_ctx.
Also add three CLI handlers for "show quic" in order to allocate and
free the command context. The dump handler runs on thread isolation.
Each quic_conn is referenced using a back-ref to handle deletion during
handler yielding.
For the moment, only a list of raw quic_conn pointers is displayed. The
handler will be completed over time with more information as needed.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
In check_config_validity() function, we performed some consistency checks to
adjust minconn/maxconn attributes for each declared server.
We move this logic into a dedicated function named srv_minmax_conn_apply()
to be able to perform those checks later in the process life when needed
(ie: dynamic servers)
Deduplicate the code which checks the OCSP update in the ckch_store and
in the crtlist_entry.
Also, jump immediatly to error handling when the ERR_FATAL is catched.
GH issue #2034 clearly indicates yet another case of time roll-over
that went badly. Issues that happen only once every 50 days are hard
to detect and debug, and are usually reported more or less synchronized
from multiple sources. This patch finally does what had long been planned
but never done yet, which is to force the time to wrap early after boot
so that any such remaining issue can be spotted quicker. The margin delay
here is 20s (it may be changed by setting BOOT_TIME_WRAP_SEC to another
value). This value seems sufficient to permit failed health checks to
succeed and traffic to come in and possibly start to update some time
stamps (accept dates in logs, freq counters, stick-tables expiration
dates etc).
It could theoretically be helpful to have this in 2.7, but as can be
seen with the two patches below, we've already had incorrect use cases
of the internal monotonic time when the wall-clock one was needed, so
we could expect to detect other ones in the future. Note that this will
*not* induce bugs, it will only make them happen much faster (i.e. no
need to wait for 50 days before seeing them). If it were to eventually
be backported, these two previous patches must also be backported:
BUG/MINOR: clock: use distinct wall-clock and monotonic start dates
BUG/MEDIUM: cache: use the correct time reference when comparing dates
We've had a start date even before the internal monotonic clock existed,
but once the monotonic clock was added, the start date was not updated
to distinguish the wall clock time units and the internal monotonic time
units. The distinction is important because both clocks do not necessarily
progress at the same speed. The very rare occurrences of the wall-clock
date are essentially for human consumption and communication with third
parties (e.g. report the start date in "show info" for monitoring
purposes). However currently this one is also used to measure the distance
to "now" as being the process' uptime. This is actually not correct. It
only works because for now the two dates are initialized at the exact
same instant at boot but could still be wrong if the system's date shows
a big jump backwards during startup for example. In addition the current
situation prevents us from enforcing an abritrary offset at boot to reveal
some heisenbugs.
This patch adds a new "start_time" at boot that is set from "now" and is
used in uptime calculations. "start_date" instead is now set from "date"
and will always reflect the system date for human consumption (e.g. in
"show info"). This way we're now sure that any drift of the internal
clock relative to the system date will not impact the reported uptime.
This could possibly be backported though it's unlikely that anyone has
ever noticed the problem.
In ("BUG/MEDIUM: stats: Rely on a local trash buffer to dump the stats"),
we forgot to apply the patch in resolvers.c which provides the
stats_dump_resolvers() function that is involved when dumping with "resolvers"
domain.
As a consequence, resolvers dump was broken because stats_dump_one_line(),
which is used in stats_dump_resolv_to_buffer(), implicitely uses trash_chunk
from stats.c to prepare the dump, and stats_putchk() is then called with
global trash (currently empty) as output data.
Given that trash_dump variable is static and thus only available within stats.c
we change stats_putchk() function prototype so that the function does not take
the output buffer as an argument. Instead, stats_putchk() will implicitly use
the local trash_dump variable declared in stats.c.
It will also prevent further mixups between stats_dump_* functions and
stats_putchk().
This needs to be backported with ("BUG/MEDIUM: stats: Rely on a local trash
buffer to dump the stats")
Instead of reading and storing a single group and a single mask for a
"thread" directive on a bind line, we now store the complete range in
a thread set that's stored in the bind_conf. The bind_parse_thread()
function now just calls parse_thread_set() to complete the current set,
which starts empty, and thread_resolve_group_mask() was updated to
support retrieving thread group numbers or absolute thread numbers
directly from the pre-filled thread_set, and continue to feed bind_tgroup
and bind_thread. The CLI parsers which were pre-initialized to set the
bind_tgroup to 1 cannot do it anymore as it would prevent one from
restricting the thread set. Instead check_config_validity() now detects
the CLI frontend and passes the info down to thread_resolve_group_mask()
that will automatically use only the group 1's threads for these
listeners. The same is done for the peers listeners for now.
At this step it's already possible to start with all previous valid
configs as well as extended ones supporting comma-delimited thread
sets. In addition the parser already accepts large ranges spanning
multiple groups, but since the underlying listeners infrastructure
is not read, for now we're maintaining a specific check against this
at the higher level of the config validity check.
The patch is a bit large because thread resolution is performed in
multiple steps, so we need to adjust all of them at once to preserve
functional and technical consistency.
The purpose is to be able to store large thread sets, defined by ranges
that may cross group boundaries, as well as define lists of groups and
masks. The thread_set struct implements the storage, and the parser is
in parse_thread_set(), with a focus on "bind" lines, but not only.
This flag is only used to tag a QUIC listener, which we now know by
its bind_conf's xprt as well. It's only used to decide whether or not
to perform an extra initialization step on the listener. Let's drop it
as well as the flags field.
With the various fields and options moved, the listener struct reduced
by 48 bytes total.
All options that made sense were moved to the bind_conf, and remaining
ones were removed. This field isn't used at all anymore. The thr_idx
field was moved there to plug the hole.
LI_O_TCP_L4_RULES and LI_O_TCP_L5_RULES are only set by from the proxy
based on the presence or absence of tcp_req l4/l5 rules. It's basically
as cheap to check the list as it is to check the flag, except that there
is no need to maintain a copy. Let's get rid of them, and this may ease
addition of more dynamic stuff later.
These two flags are entirely for internal use and are even per proxy
in practice since they're used for peers and CLI to indicate (for the
first one) that the listener(s) are not subject to connection limits,
and for the second that the listener(s) should not be stopped on
soft-stop. No need to keep them in the listeners, let's move them to
the bind_conf under names BC_O_UNLIMITED and BC_O_NOSTOP.
These are only set per bind line and used when creating a sessions,
we can move them to the bind_conf under the names BC_O_ACC_PROXY and
BC_O_ACC_CIP respectively.
It's set per bind line ("tfo") and only used in tcp_bind_listener() so
there's no point keeping the address family tests, let's just store the
flag in the bind_conf under the name BC_O_TCP_FO.
This option is set per bind line, and was only set stored when the
address family is AF_INET4 or AF_INET6. That's pointless since it's
used only in tcp_bind_listener() which is only used for such families
as well, so it can now be moved to the bind_conf under the name
BC_O_DEF_ACCEPT.
It's currently declared per-frontend, though it would make sense to
support it per-line but in no case per-listener. Let's move the option
to a bind_conf option BC_O_NOLINGER.
This field is used by stream_new() to optionally set the applet the
stream will connect to for simple proxies like the CLI for example.
But it has never been configurable to anything and is always strictly
equal to the frontend's ->default_target. Let's just drop it and make
stream_new() only use the frontend's. It makes more sense anyway as
we don't want the proxy to work differently based on the "bind" line.
This idea was brought in 1.6 hoping that the h2 implementation would
use applets for decoding (which was dropped after the very first
attempt in 1.8).
The accept callback directly derives from the upper layer, generally
it's session_accept_fd(). As such it's also defined per bind line
so it makes sense to move it there.
The maxconn is set per bind line so let's move it there. This might
possibly even slightly reduce inter-thread contention since this one
is read-mostly and it was stored next to nbconn which changes for
each connection setup or teardown.
Like for previous values, maxaccept is really per-bind_conf, so let's
move it there. Some frontends (peers, log) set it to 1 so the assignment
was slightly moved.
These two arguments were only set and only used with tcpv4/tcpv6. Let's
just store them into the bind_conf instead of duplicating them for all
listeners since they're fixed per "bind" line.
When bind_conf were created, some elements such as the analysers mask
ought to have moved there but that wasn't the case. Now that it's
getting clearer that bind_conf provides all binding parameters and
the listener is essentially a listener on an address, it's starting
to get really confusing to keep such parameters in the listener, so
let's move the mask to the bind_conf. We also take this opportunity
for pre-setting the mask to the frontend's upon initalization. Now
several loops have one less argument to take care of.
The SCID (source connection ID) used by a peer (client or server) is sent into the
long header of a QUIC packet in clear. But it is also sent into the transport
parameters (initial_source_connection_id). As these latter are encrypted into the
packet, one must check that these two pieces of information do not differ
due to a packet header corruption. Furthermore as such a connection is unusuable
it must be killed and must stop as soon as possible processing RX/TX packets.
Implement qc_kill_con() to flag a connection as unusable and to kille it asap
waking up the idle timer task to release the connection.
Add a check to quic_transport_params_store() to detect that the SCIDs do not
match and make it call qc_kill_con().
Add several tests about connection to be killed at several critial locations,
especially in the TLS stack callback to receive CRYPTO data from or derive secrets,
and before preparing packet after having received others.
Must be backported to 2.6 and 2.7.
This is a bad idea to make the TLS ClientHello callback call qc_conn_finalize().
If this latter fails, this would generate a TLS alert and make the connection
send packet whereas it is not functional. But qc_conn_finalize() job was to
install the transport parameters sent by the QUIC listener. This installation
cannot be done at any time. This must be done after having possibly negotiated
the QUIC version and before sending the first Handshake packets. It seems
the better moment to do that in when the Handshake TX secrets are derived. This
has been found inspecting the ngtcp2 code. Calling SSL_set_quic_transport_params()
too late would make the ServerHello to be sent without the transport parameters.
The code for the connection update which was done from qc_conn_finalize() has
been moved to quic_transport_params_store(). So, this update is done as soon as
possible.
Add QUIC_FL_CONN_TX_TP_RECEIVED to flag the connection as having received the
peer transport parameters. Indeed this is required when the ClientHello message
is splitted between packets.
Add QUIC_FL_CONN_FINALIZED to protect the connection from calling qc_conn_finalize()
more than one time. This latter is called only when the connection has received
the transport parameters and after returning from SSL_do_hanshake() which is the
function which trigger the TLS ClientHello callback call.
Remove the calls to qc_conn_finalize() from from the TLS ClientHello callbacks.
Must be backported to 2.6. and 2.7.
Add cum_sess_ver[] new array of counters to count the number of cumulated
HTTP sessions by version (h1, h2 or h3).
Implement proxy_inc_fe_cum_sess_ver_ctr() to increment these counter.
This function is called each a HTTP mux is correctly initialized. The QUIC
must before verify the application operations for the mux is for h3 before
calling proxy_inc_fe_cum_sess_ver_ctr().
ST_F_SESS_OTHER stat field for the cumulated of sessions others than
HTTP sessions is deduced from ->cum_sess_ver counter (for all the session,
not only HTTP sessions) from which the HTTP sessions counters are substracted.
Add cum_req[] new array of counters to count the number of cumulated HTTP
requests by version and others than HTTP requests. This new member replace ->cum_req.
Modify proxy_inc_fe_req_ctr() which increments these counters to pass an HTTP
version, 0 special values meaning "other than an HTTP request". This is the case
for instance for syslog.c from which proxy_inc_fe_req_ctr() is called with 0
as version parameter.
ST_F_REQ_TOT stat field compputing for the cumulated number of requests is modified
to count the sum of all the cum_req[] counters.
As this patch is useful for QUIC, it must be backported to 2.7.
This is a leftover from the implementation's history, but the
quic_rx_packet and quic_tx_packet ref counts were still atomically
updated. It was found in perf top that the cost of the atomic inc
in quic_tx_packet_refinc() alone was responsible for 1% of the CPU
usage at 135 Gbps. Given that packets are only processed on their
assigned thread we don't need that anymore and this can be replaced
with regular non-atomic operations.
Doing this alone has reduced the CPU usage of qc_do_build_pkt()
from 3.6 to 2.5% and increased the overall bit rate by about 1%.
Define a new configuration option "tune.quic.max-frame-loss". This is
used to specify the limit for which a single frame instance can be
detected as lost. If exceeded, the connection is closed.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Add a <loss_count> new field in quic_frame structure. This field is set
to 0 and incremented each time a sent packet is declared lost. If
<loss_count> reached a hard-coded limit, the connection is deemed as
failing and is closed immediately with a CONNECTION_CLOSE using
INTERNAL_ERROR.
By default, limit is set to 10. This should ensure that overall memory
usage is limited if a peer behaves incorrectly.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Define a new function qc_frm_free() to handle frame deallocation. New
BUG_ON() statements ensure that the deallocated frame is not referenced
by other frame. To support this, all LIST_DELETE() have been replaced by
LIST_DEL_INIT(). This should enforce that frame deallocation is robust.
As a complement, qc_frm_unref() has been moved into quic_frame module.
It is justified as this is a utility function related to frame
deallocation. It allows to use it in quic_pktns_tx_pkts_release() before
calling qc_frm_free().
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Define two utility functions for quic_frame allocation :
* qc_frm_alloc() is used to allocate a new frame
* qc_frm_dup() is used to allocate a new frame by duplicating an
existing one
Theses functions are useful to centralize quic_frame initialization.
Note that pool_zalloc() is replaced by a proper pool_alloc() + explicit
initialization code.
This commit will simplify implementation of the per frame retransmission
limitation. Indeed, a new counter will be added in quic_frame structure
which must be initialized to 0.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
A dedicated <fin> field was used in quic_stream structure. However, this
info is already encoded in the frame type field as specified by QUIC
protocol.
In fact, only code for packet reception used the <fin> field. On the
sending side, we only checked for the FIN bit. To align both sides,
remove the <fin> field and only used the FIN bit.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Define a new qcc_app_ops callback named close(). This will be used to
notify app-layer about the closure of a stream by the remote peer. Its
main usage is to ensure that the closure is allowed by the application
protocol specification.
For the moment, close is not implemented by H3 layer. However, this
function will be mandatory to properly reject a STOP_SENDING on the
control stream and preventing a later crash. As such, this commit must
be backported with the next one on 2.6.
This is related to github issue #2006.
proxy http-only options implemented in http_ext were statically stored
within proxy struct.
We're making some changes so that http_ext are now stored in a dynamically
allocated structs.
http_ext related structs are only allocated when needed to save some space
whenever possible, and they are automatically freed upon proxy deletion.
Related PX_O_HTTP{7239,XFF,XOT) option flags were removed because we're now
considering an http_ext option as 'active' if it is allocated (ptr is not NULL)
A few checks (and BUG_ON) were added to make these changes safe because
it adds some (acceptable) complexity to the previous design.
Also, proxy.http was renamed to proxy.http_ext to make things more explicit.
forwarded header option (rfc7239) deals with sample expressions in two
steps: first a sample expression string is extracted from the config file
and later in startup sequence this string is converted into the resulting
sample_expr.
We need to perform these two steps because we cannot compile the expr
too early in the parsing sequence. (or we would miss some context)
Because of this, we have two dinstinct structure members (expr and expr_s)
for each 7239 field supporting sample expressions.
This is not cool, because we're bloating the http forwarded config structure,
and thus, bloating proxy config structure.
To address this, we now merge both expr and expr_s members inside a single
union to regain some space. This forces us to perform some additional logic
to make sure to use the proper structure member at different parsing steps.
Thanks to this, we're also able to free/release related config hints and
sample expression strings as soon as the sample expression
compilation is finished.
Just like forwarded (7239) header and forwardfor header, move parsing,
logic and management of 'originalto' option into http_ext dedicated class.
We're only doing this to standardize proxy http options management.
Existing behavior remains untouched.
Just like forwarded (7239) header, move parsing, logic and management

Introducing http_ext class for http extension related work that
doesn't fit into existing http classes.
HTTP extension "forwarded", introduced with 7239 RFC is now supported
by haproxy.
The option supports various modes from simple to complex usages involving
custom sample expressions.
Examples :
# Those servers want the ip address and protocol of the client request
# Resulting header would look like this:
# forwarded: proto=http;for=127.0.0.1
backend www_default
mode http
option forwarded
#equivalent to: option forwarded proto for
# Those servers want the requested host and hashed client ip address
# as well as client source port (you should use seed for xxh32 if ensuring
# ip privacy is a concern)
# Resulting header would look like this:
# forwarded: host="haproxy.org";for="_000000007F2F367E:60138"
backend www_host
mode http
option forwarded host for-expr src,xxh32,hex for_port
# Those servers want custom data in host, for and by parameters
# Resulting header would look like this:
# forwarded: host="host.com";by=_haproxy;for="[::1]:10"
backend www_custom
mode http
option forwarded host-expr str(host.com) by-expr str(_haproxy) for for_port-expr int(10)
# Those servers want random 'for' obfuscated identifiers for request
# tracing purposes while protecting sensitive IP information
# Resulting header would look like this:
# forwarded: for=_000000002B1F4D63
backend www_for_hide
mode http
option forwarded for-expr rand,hex
By default (no argument provided), forwarded option will try to mimic
x-forward-for common setups (source client ip address + source protocol)
The option is not available for frontends.
no option forwarded is supported.

Depends on:
- "MINOR: http_htx: add http_append_header() to append value to header"
- "MINOR: sample: add ARGC_OPT"
- "MINOR: proxy: introduce http only options"
This commit is innoffensive but will allow to do some code refactors in
existing proxy http options. Newly created http related proxy options
will also benefit from this.
Just like http_append_header(), but this time to insert new value before
an existing one.
If the header already contains one or multiple values, ',' is automatically
inserted after the new value.
Calling this function as an alternative to http_replace_header_value()
to append a new value to existing header instead of replacing the whole
header content.
If the header already contains one or multiple values: a ',' is automatically
appended before the new value.
This function is not meant for prepending (providing empty ctx value),
in which case we should consider implementing dedicated prepend
alternative function.
Till now pseudo headers were passed as const strings, but having them as
ISTs will be more convenient for traces. This doesn't change anything for
strings which are derived from them (and being constants they're still
zero-terminated).
TRACE_PRINTF() can be used to produce arbitrary trace contents at any
trace level. It uses the exact same arguments as other TRACE_* macros,
but here they are mandatory since they are followed by the format-string,
though they may be filled with zeroes. The reason for the arguments is to
match tracking or filtering and not pollute other non-inspected objects.
It will probably be used inside loops, in which case there are two points
to be careful about:
- output atomicity is only per-message, so competing threads may see
their messages interleaved. As such, it is recommended that the
caller places a recognizable unique context at the beginning of the
message such as a connection pointer.
- iterating over arrays or lists for all requests could be very
expensive. In order to avoid this it is best to condition the call
via TRACE_ENABLED() with the same arguments, which will return the
same decision.
- messages longer than TRACE_MAX_MSG-1 (1023 by default) will be
truncated.
For example, in order to dump the list of HTTP headers between hpack
and h2:
if (outlen > 0 &&
TRACE_ENABLED(TRACE_LEVEL_DEVELOPER,
H2_EV_RX_FRAME|H2_EV_RX_HDR, h2c->conn, 0, 0, 0)) {
int i;
for (i = 0; list[i].n.len; i++)
TRACE_PRINTF(TRACE_LEVEL_DEVELOPER, H2_EV_RX_FRAME|H2_EV_RX_HDR,
h2c->conn, 0, 0, 0, "h2c=%p hdr[%d]=%s:%s", h2c, i,
list[i].n.ptr, list[i].v.ptr);
}
In addition, a lower-level TRACE_PRINTF_LOC() macro is provided, that takes
two extra arguments, the caller's location and the caller's function name.
This will allow to emit composite traces from central functions on the
behalf of another one.
By default, passing a NULL cb to the trace functions will result in the
source's default one to be used. For some cases we won't want to use any
callback at all, not event the default one. Let's define a trace_no_cb()
function for this, that does absolutely nothing.
Sometimes it would be necessary to prepare some messages, pre-process some
blocks or maybe duplicate some contents before they vanish for the purpose
of tracing them. However we don't want to do that for everything that is
submitted to the traces, it's important to do it only for what will really
be traced.
The __trace() function has all the knowledge for this, to the point of even
checking the lockon pointers. This commit splits the function in two, one
with the trace decision logic, and the other one for the trace production.
The first one is now usable through wrappers such as _trace_enabled() and
TRACE_ENABLED() which will indicate whether traces are going to be produced
for the current source, level, event mask, parameters and tracking.
There are ifdefs at several places to only define TRC_ARGS_QCON when
QUIC is defined, but nothing prevents this code from building without.
Let's just remove those ifdefs, the single "if" they avoid is not worth
the extra maintenance burden.
As specified by HTTP3 RFC, SETTINGS frame should be sent as soon as
possible. Before this patch, this was only done on the first qc_send()
invocation. This delay significantly SETTINGS emission until the first
H3 response is ready to be transferred.
This patch fixes this by ensuring SETTINGS is emitted when MUX-QUIC is
being setup.
As a side point, return value of finalize operation is checked. This
means that an error during SETTINGS emission will cause the connection
init to fail.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
thread_harmless_end() needs to wait for rdv_requests to disappear so
that we're certain to respect a harmless promise that possibly allowed
another thread to proceed under isolation. But this doesn't work in a
signal handler because a thread could be interrupted by the debug
handler while already waiting for isolation and with rdv_request>0.
As such this function could cause a deadlock in such a signal handler.
Let's implement a specific variant for this, thread_harmless_end_sig(),
that just resets the thread's bit and doesn't wait. It must of course
not be used past a check point that would allow the isolation requester
to return and see the thread as temporarily harmless then turning back
on its promise.
This will be needed to fix a race in the debug handler.
A few loops waiting for threads to synchronize such as thread_isolate()
rightfully filter the thread masks via the threads_enabled field that
contains the list of enabled threads. However, it doesn't use an atomic
load on it. Before 2.7, the equivalent variables were marked as volatile
and were always reloaded. In 2.7 they're fields in ha_tgroup_ctx[], and
the risk that the compiler keeps them in a register inside a loop is not
null at all. In practice when ha_thread_relax() calls sched_yield() or
an x86 PAUSE instruction, it could be verified that the variable is
always reloaded. If these are avoided (e.g. architecture providing
neither solution), it's visible in asm code that the variables are not
reloaded. In this case, if a thread exists just between the moment the
two values are read, the loop could spin forever.
This patch adds the required _HA_ATOMIC_LOAD() on the relevant
threads_enabled fields. It must be backported to 2.7.
Slighty adjust b_quic_enc_int(). This function is used to encode an
integer as a QUIC varint in a struct buffer.
A new parameter is added to the function API to specify the width of the
encoded integer. By default, 0 should be use to ensure that the minimum
space is used. Other valid values are 1, 2, 4 or 8. An error is reported
if the width is not large enough.
This new parameter will be useful when buffer space is reserved prior to
encode an unknown integer value. The maximum size of 8 bytes will be
reserved and some data can be put after. When finally encoding the
integer, the width can be requested to be 8 bytes.
With this new parameter, a small refactoring of the function has been
conducted to remove some useless internal variables.
This should be backported up to 2.7. It will be mostly useful to
implement H3 trailers encoding.
This function was introduced in OpenSSL 1.1.0. Prior to that, the
ECDSA_SIG structure was public.
This function was used in commit 5a8f02ae "BUG/MEDIUM: jwt: Properly
process ecdsa signatures (concatenated R and S params)".
This patch needs to be backported up to branch 2.5 alongside commit
5a8f02ae.
Commit 5a8f02ae6 ("BUG/MEDIUM: jwt: Properly process ecdsa signatures
(concatenated R and S params)") makes use of ECDSA_SIG_set0() which only
appeared in openssl-1.1.0 and libressl 2.7, and breaks the build before.
Let's just do what it minimally does (only assigns the two fields to the
destination).
This will need to be backported where the commit above is, likely 2.5.
Add "no-quic" to "global" section to disable the use of QUIC transport protocol
by all configured QUIC listeners. This is listeners with QUIC addresses on their
"bind" lines. Internally, the socket addresses binding is skipped by
protocol_bind_all() for receivers with <proto_quic4> or <proto_quic6> as
protocol (see protocol struct).
Add information about "no-quic" global option to the documentation.
Must be backported to 2.7.
In se_fl_set_error() we used to switch to SE_FL_ERROR only when there
is already SE_FL_EOS indicating that the read side is closed. But that
is not sufficient, we need to consider all cases where no more reads
will be performed on the connection, and as such also include SE_FL_EOI.
Without this, some aborted connections during a transfer sometimes only
stop after the timeout, because the ERR_PENDING is never promoted to
ERROR.
This must be backported to 2.7 and requires previous patch "CLEANUP:
stconn: always use se_fl_set_error() to set the pending error".
When the payload length cannot be determined, the htx extra field is set to
the magical vlaue ULLONG_MAX. It is not obvious. This a dedicated HTX value
is now used. Now, HTX_UNKOWN_PAYLOAD_LENGTH must be used in this case,
instead of ULLONG_MAX.
There is already a function to set termination flags but it is not well
suited for HTTP streams. So a function, dedicated to the HTTP analysis, was
added. This way, this new function will be called for HTTP analysers on
error. And if the error is not caugth at this stage, the generic function
will still be called from process_stream().
Here, by default a PRXCOND error is reported and depending on the stream
state, the reson will be set accordingly:
* If the backend SC is in INI state, SF_FINST_T is reported on tarpit and
SF_FINST_R otherwise.
* SF_FINST_Q is the server connection is queued
* SF_FINST_C in any connection attempt state (REQ/TAR/ASS/CONN/CER/RDY).
Except for applets, a SF_FINST_R is reported.
* Once the server connection is established, SF_FINST_H is reported while
HTTP_MSG_DATA state on the response side.
* SF_FINST_L is reported if the response is in HTTP_MSG_DONE state or
higher and a client error/timeout was reported.
* Otherwise SF_FINST_D is reported.
During multiple tests we've already noticed that shared stats counters
have become a real bottleneck under large thread counts. With QUIC it's
pretty visible, with qc_snd_buf() taking 2.5% of the CPU on a 48-thread
machine at only 25 Gbps, and this CPU is entirely spent in the atomic
increment of the byte count and byte rate. It's also visible in H1/H2
but slightly less since we're working with larger buffers, hence less
frequent updates. These counters are exclusively used to report the
byte count in "show info" and the byte rate in the stats.
Let's move them to the thread_ctx struct and make the stats reader
just collect each thread's stats when requested. That's way more
efficient than competing on a single cache line.
After this, qc_snd_buf has totally disappeared from the perf profile
and tests made in h1 show roughly 1% performance increase on small
objects.
When a STOP_SENDING or RESET_STREAM must be send, its corresponding qcs
is inserted into <qcc.send_list> via qcc_reset_stream() or
qcc_abort_stream_read().
This allows to remove the iteration on full qcs tree in qc_send().
Instead, STOP_SENDING and RESET_STREAM is done in the loop over
<qcc.send_list> as with STREAM frames. This should improve slightly the
performance, most notably when large number of streams are opened.
This must be backported up to 2.7.
Complete qcc_send_stream() function to allow to specify if the stream
should be handled in priority. Internally this will insert the qcs
instance in front of <qcc.send_list> to be able to treat it before other
streams.
This functionality is useful when some QUIC streams should be sent
before others. Most notably, this is used to guarantee that H3 SETTINGS
is done first via the control stream.
This must be backported up to 2.7.
Implement a mechanism to register streams ready to send data in new
STREAM frames. Internally, this is implemented with a new list
<qcc.send_list> which contains qcs instances.
A qcs can be registered safely using the new function qcc_send_stream().
This is done automatically in qc_send_buf() which covers most cases.
Also, application layer is free to use it for internal usage streams.
This is currently the case for H3 control stream with SETTINGS sending.
The main point of this patch is to handle stream sending fairly. This is
in stark contrast with previous code where streams with lower ID were
always prioritized. This could cause other streams to be indefinitely
blocked behind a stream which has a lot of data to transfer. Now,
streams are handled in an order scheduled by se_desc layer.
This commit is the first one of a serie which will bring other
improvments which also relied on the send_list implementation.
This must be backported up to 2.7 when deemed sufficiently stable.
In applets, we stop processing when a write error (CF_WRITE_ERROR) or a shutdown
for writes (CF_SHUTW) is detected. However, any write error leads to an
immediate shutdown for writes. Thus, it is enough to only test if CF_SHUTW is
set.
When a read error (CF_READ_ERROR) is reported, a shutdown for reads is
always performed (CF_SHUTR). Thus, there is no reason to check if
CF_READ_ERROR is set if CF_SHUTR is also checked.
CF_READ_ATTACHED flag is only used in input events for stream analyzers,
CF_MASK_ANALYSER. A read event can be reported instead and this flag can be
removed. We must only take care to report a read event when the client
connection is upgraded from TCP to HTTP.
It appears CF_ANA_TIMEOUT is flag only used in CF_MASK_ANALYSER. All
analyzer timeout relies on the analysis expiration date (chn->analyse_exp).
Worst, once set, this flag is never removed. Thus this flag can be removed
and replaced by a read event (CF_READ_EVENT).
Thanks to previous changes, CF_WRITE_ACTIVITY flags can be removed.
Everywhere it was used, its value is now directly used
(CF_WRITE_EVENT|CF_WRITE_ERROR).
Thanks to previous changes, CF_READ_ACTIVITY flags can be removed.
Everywhere it was used, its value is now directly used
(CF_READ_EVENT|CF_READ_ERROR).
Just like CF_READ_PARTIAL, CF_WRITE_PARTIAL is now merged with
CF_WRITE_EVENT. There a subtlety in sc_notify(). The "connect" event
(formely CF_WRITE_NULL) is now detected with
(CF_WRITE_EVENT + sc->state < SC_ST_EST).
CF_READ_PARTIAL flag is now merged with CF_READ_EVENT. It means
CF_READ_EVENT is set when a read0 is received (formely CF_READ_NULL) or when
data are received (formely CF_READ_ACTIVITY).
There is nothing special here, except conditions to wake the stream up in
sc_notify(). Indeed, the test was a bit changed to reflect recent
change. read0 event is now formalized by (CF_READ_EVENT + CF_SHUTR).
As for CF_READ_NULL, it appears CF_WRITE_NULL and other write events on a
channel are mainly used to wake up the stream and may be replace by on write
event.
In this patch, we introduce CF_WRITE_EVENT flag as a replacement to
CF_WRITE_EVENT_NULL. There is no breaking change for now, it is just a
rename. Gradually, other write events will be merged with this one.
CF_READ_NULL flag is not really useful and used. It is a transient event
used to wakeup the stream. As we will see, all read events on a channel may
be resumed to only one and are all used to wake up the stream.
In this patch, we introduce CF_READ_EVENT flag as a replacement to
CF_READ_NULL. There is no breaking change for now, it is just a
rename. Gradually, other read events will be merged with this one.
This action increments the General Purpose Counter at the index <idx> of
the array associated to the sticky counter designated by <sc-id> by the
value of either integer <int> or the integer evaluation of expression
<expr>. Integers and expressions are limited to unsigned 32-bit values.
If an error occurs, this action silently fails and the actions evaluation
continues. <idx> is an integer between 0 and 99 and <sc-id> is an integer
between 0 and 2. It also silently fails if the there is no GPC stored at
this index. The entry in the table is refreshed even if the value is zero.
The 'gpc_rate' is automatically adjusted to reflect the average growth
rate of the gpc value.
The main use of this action is to count scores or total volumes (e.g.
estimated danger per source IP reported by the server or a WAF, total
uploaded bytes, etc).
The number of stick-counter entries usable by track-sc rules is currently
set at build time. There is no good value for this since the vast majority
of users don't need any, most need only a few and rare users need more.
Adding more counters for everyone increases memory and CPU usages for no
reason.
This patch moves the per-session and per-stream arrays to a pool of a size
defined at boot time. This way it becomes possible to set the number of
entries at boot time via a new global setting "tune.stick-counters" that
sets the limit for the whole process. When not set, the MAX_SESS_STR_CTR
value still applies, or 3 if not set, as before.
It is also possible to lower the value to 0 to save a bit of memory if
not used at all.
Note that a few low-level sample-fetch functions had to be protected due
to the ability to use sample-fetches in the global section to set some
variables.
There is a bug in b_slow_realign() function when wrapping output data are
copied in the swap buffer. block1 and block2 sizes are inverted. Thus blocks
with a wrong size are copied. It leads to data mixin if the first block is
in reality larger than the second one or to a copy of data outside the
buffer is the first block is smaller than the second one.
The bug was introduced when the buffer API was refactored in 1.9. It was
found by a code review and seems never to have been triggered in almost 5
years. However, we cannot exclude it is responsible of some unresolved bugs.
This patch should fix issue #1978. It must be backported as far as 2.0.
Due to the previous SSL exception we coudln't restrict the collected
CFLAGS/LDFLAGS to those of enabled options, so all of them were
considered if set. The problem is that it would prevent simply
disabling a build option without unsetting its xxx_CFLAGS or _LDFLAGS
values if those had incompatible values (e.g. -lfoo).
Now that only existing options are listed in collect_opts_flags, we
can safely check that the option is set and only consider its settings
in this case. Thus OT_LDFLAGS will not be used if USE_OT is not set
for example.
By creating USE_SSL and enabling it when USE_OPENSSL is set, we can
get rid of the special case that was made with it regarding cflags
collect and when resetting options. The option doesn't need to be
manually set, though in the future it might prove useful if other
non-openssl API are supported.
It's getting complicated to configure includes and lib dirs for
OpenSSL API variants such as WolfSSL, because some settings are
common and others are specific but carry a prefix that doesn't
match the USE_* rule scheme.
This patch simplifies everything by considering that all SSL libs
will use SSL_INC, SSL_LIB, SSL_CFLAGS and SSL_LDFLAGS. That's much
more convenient. This works thanks to the settings collector which
explicitly checks the SSL_* settings. When USE_OPENSSL_WOLFSSL is
set, then USE_OPENSSL is implied, so that there's no need to
duplicate maintenance effort.
The new function collect_opts_flags now scans all USE_* options defined
in use_opts and appends the corresponding *_CFLAGS and *_LDFLAGS to
OPTIONS_{C,LD}FLAGS respectively. This will be useful to get rid of all
the individual concatenations to these variables.
A lot of _SRC, _INC, _LIB etc variables are set and expected to be
initialized to an empty string by default. However, an in-depth
review of all of them showed that WOLFSSL_{INC,LIB}, SSL_{INC,LIB},
LUA_{INC,LIB}, and maybe others were not always initialized and could
sometimes leak from the environment and as such cause strange build
issues when running from cascaded scripts that had exported them.
The approach taken here consists in iterating over all USE_* options
and unsetting any _SRC, _INC, _LIB, _CFLAGS and _LDFLAGS that follows
the same name. For the few variable names options that don't exactly
match the build option (SSL & WOLFSSL), these ones are specifically
added to the list. The few that were explicitly cleared in their own
sections were just removed since not needed anymore. Note that an
"undefine" command appeared in GNU make 3.82 but since we support
older ones we can only initialize the variables to an empty string
here. It's not a problem in practice.
We're now certain that these variables are empty wherever they are
used, and that it is possible to just append to them, or use them
as-is.
Some macros and functions are barely understandable and are only used
to iterate over known options from the use_opts list. Better assign
them a name and move them into a dedicated file to clean the makefile
a little bit. Now at least "use_opts" only appears once, where it is
defined. This also allowed to completely remove the BUILD_FEATURES
macro that caused some confusion until previous commit.
Implement STOP_SENDING. This is divided in two main functions :
* qcc_abort_stream_read() which can be used by application protocol to
request for a STOP_SENDING. This set the flag QC_SF_READ_ABORTED.
* qcs_send_reset() is a static function called after the preceding one.
It will send a STOP_SENDING via qcc_send().
QC_SF_READ_ABORTED flag is now properly used : if activated on a stream
during qcc_recv(), <qcc.app_ops.decode_qcs> callback is skipped. Also,
abort reading on unknown unidirection remote stream is now fully
supported with the emission of a STOP_SENDING as specified by RFC 9000.
This commit is part of implementing H3 errors at the stream level. This
will allows the H3 layer to request the peer to close its endpoint for
an error on a stream.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Implement RESET_STREAM reception by mux-quic. On reception, qcs instance
will be mark as remotely closed and its Rx buffer released. The stream
layer will be flagged on error if still attached.
This commit is part of implementing H3 errors at the stream level.
Indeed, on H3 stream errors, STOP_SENDING + RESET_STREAM should be
emitted. The STOP_SENDING will in turn generate a RESET_STREAM by the
remote peer which will be handled thanks to this patch.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Implement mux_ops shutw operation for QUIC mux. A RESET_STREAM is
emitted unless the stream is already closed due to all data or
RESET_STREAM already transmitted.
This operation is notably useful when upper stream layer wants to close
the connection early due to an error.
This was tested by using a HTTP server which listens with PROXY protocol
support. The corresponding server line on haproxy configuration
deliberately not specify send-proxy. This causes the server to close
abruptly the connection. Without this patch, nothing was done on the QUIC
stream which was kept open until the whole connection is closed. Now, a
proper RESET_STREAM is emitted to report the error.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
The same change was already performed for the cli. The stats applet and the
prometheus exporter are also concerned. Both use the stats API and rely on
pool functions to get total pool usage in bytes. pool_total_allocated() and
pool_total_used() must return 64 bits unsigned integer to avoid any wrapping
around 4G.
This may be backported to all versions.
This patch contains the main function of the ocsp auto update mechanism
as well as an init and destroy function of the task used for this.
The task is not created in this patch but in a later one.
The function has two distinct parts and the branching to one or the
other is completely based on the fact that the cur_ocsp pointer of the
ssl_ocsp_task_ctx member is set.
If the pointer is not set, we need to look at the first item of the
update tree and see if it needs to be updated. If it does not we simply
wait until the time is right and let the task asleep. If it does need to
be updated, we simply build and send the corresponding ocsp request
thanks to the http_client. The task is then sent to sleep with an expire
time set to infinity. The http_client will wake it back up once the
response is received (or a timeout occurs). Just note that during this
whole process the cetificate_ocsp object corresponding to the entry
being updated is taken out of the update tree and only stored in the
ssl_ocsp_task_ctx context.
Once the task is waken up by the http_client, it branches on the
response processing part of the function which basically checks that the
response is valid and inserts it into the ocsp_response tree. The task
then goes back to sleep until another entry needs to be updated.
The 'ocsp-update' option is parsed at the same time as all the other
bind line options but it does not actually have anything to do with the
bind line since it concerns the frontend certificate instead. For that
reason, we should have a mean to identify inconsistencies in the
configuration and raise an error when a given certificate has two
different ocsp-update modes specified in one or more crt-lists.
The simplest way to do it is to store the ocsp update mode directly in
the ckch and not only in the ssl_bind_conf.
This option will define how the ocsp update mechanism behaves. The
option can either be set to 'on' or 'off' and can only be specified in a
crt-list entry so that we ensure that it concerns a single certificate.
The 'off' mode is the default one and corresponds to the old behavior
(no automatic update).
When the option is set to 'on', we will try to get an ocsp response
whenever an ocsp uri can be found in the frontend's certificate. The
only limitation of this mode is that the certificate's issuer will have
to be known in order for the OCSP certid to be built.
This patch only adds the parsing of the option. The full functionality
will come in a later commit.
The ocsp_response member of the cert_key_and_chain structure is only
used temporarily. During a standard init process where an ocsp response
is provided, this ocsp file is first copied into the ocsp_response
buffer without any ocsp-related parsing (see
ssl_sock_load_ocsp_response_from_file), and then the contents are
actually interpreted and inserted into the actual ocsp tree
(cert_ocsp_tree) later in the process (see ssl_sock_load_ocsp). If the
response was deemed valid, it is then copied into the actual
ocsp_response structure's 'response' field (see
ssl_sock_load_ocsp_response). From this point, the ocsp_response field
of the cert_key_and_chain object could be discarded since actual ocsp
operations will be based of the certificate_ocsp object.
The only remaining runtime use of the ckch's ocsp_response field was in
the CLI, and more precisely in the 'show ssl cert' mechanism.
This constraint could be removed by adding an OCSP_CERTID directly in
the ckch because the buffer was only used to get this id.
This patch then adds the OCSP_CERTID pointer in the ckch, it clears the
ocsp_response buffer early and simplifies the ckch_store_build_certid
function.
This helper function will check that an OCSP response is valid, meaning
that the proper "Content-Type: application/ocsp-response" header is
present and the data itself is a proper OCSP_RESPONSE that can be
checked thanks to the issuer certificate.
The tree that contains OCSP responses is never locked despite being used
at runtime for OCSP stapling as well as the CLI through "set ssl cert"
and "set ssl ocsp-response" commands.
Everything works though because the certificate_ocsp structure is
refcounted and the tree's entries are cleaned up when SSL_CTXs are
destroyed (thanks to an ex_data entry in which the certificate_ocsp
pointer is stored).
This new lock will come to use when the OCSP auto update mechanism is
fully implemented because this new feature will be based on another tree
that stores the same certificate_ocsp members and updates their contents
periodically.
Shards were completely forgotten in commit f5a0c8abf ("MEDIUM: quic:
respect the threads assigned to a bind line"). The thread mask is
taken from the bind_conf, but since shards were introduced in 2.5,
the per-listener mask is held by the receiver and can be smaller
than the bind_conf's mask.
The effect here is that the traffic is not distributed to the
appropriate thread. At first glance it's not dramatic since it remains
one of the threads eligible by the bind_conf, but it still means that
in some contexts such as "shards by-thread", some concurrency may
persist on listeners while they're expected to be alone. One identified
impact is that it requires more rxbufs than necessary, but there may
possibly be other not yet identified side effects.
This must be backported to 2.7 and everywhere the commit above is
backported.
qcs instances for bidirectional streams are inserted in
<qcc.opening_list>. It is removed from the list once a full HTTP request
has been parsed. This is required to implement http-request timeout.
In case a stream is deleted before receiving full HTTP request, it also
must be removed from <qcc.opening_list>. This was not the case on first
implementation but has been fixed by the following patch :
641a65ff3c
BUG/MINOR: mux-quic: remove qcs from opening-list on free
This means that now a stream can be deleted from the list in two
different functions. Sadly, as LIST_DELETE was used in both cases,
nothing prevented a double-deletion from the list, even though
LIST_INLIST was used. Both calls are replaced with LIST_DEL_INIT which
is idempotent.
This bug causes memory corruption which results in most cases in a
segfault, most of times outside of mux-quic code itself. It has been
found first by gabrieltz who reported it on the github issue #1903. Big
thanks to him for his testing.
This bug also causes failures on several 'M' transfer testcase of QUIC
interop-runner. The s2n-quic client is particularly useful in this case
as segfaults triggers were most of the times on the LIST_DELETE
operation itself. This is probably due to its encapsulating of HEADERS
frame with fin bit delayed in a following empty STREAM frame.
This must be backported wherever the above patch is, up to 2.6.
Some uses of swrate_add() only consist in getting a rough estimate of
a frequency. There are cases where speed matters more than accuracy
(e.g. pools). For such use cases, let's just stop looping on the CAS,
if the update fails, another thread is already providing input, and
it's not dramatic to lose the race. All these functions are now
suffixed with "_opportunistic".
Till now it was only possible to change the thread local hot cache size
at build time using CONFIG_HAP_POOL_CACHE_SIZE. But along benchmarks it
was sometimes noticed a huge contention in the lower level memory
allocators indicating that larger caches could be beneficial, especially
on machines with large L2 CPUs.
Given that the checks against this value was no longer on a hot path
anymore, there was no reason for continuing to force it to be tuned at
build time. So this patch allows to set it by tune.memory-hot-size.
It's worth noting that during the boot phase the value remains zero so
that it's possible to know if the value was set or not, which opens the
possibility that we try to automatically adjust it based on the per-cpu
L2 cache size or the use of certain protocols (none of this is done yet).
Performance profiling on a 48-thread machine showed a lot of time spent
in pool_free(), precisely at the point where pool->limit was retrieved.
And the reason is simple. Some parts of the pool_head are heavily updated
only when facing a cache miss ("allocated", "used", "needed_avg"), while
others are always accessed (limit, flags, size). The fact that both
entries were stored into the same cache line makes it very difficult for
each thread to access these precious info even when working with its own
cache.
By just splitting the fields apart, a test on QUIC (which stresses pools
a lot) more than doubled performance from 42 Gbps to 96 Gbps!
Given that the patch only reorders fields and addresses such a significant
contention, it should be backported to 2.7 and 2.6.
peers-t.h uses "struct stktable" as well as STKTABLE_DATA_TYPES which
are defined in stick-table-t.h. It works by accident because
stick-table-t.h was always included before. But could provoke build
issue with EXTRA code.
To be backported as far as 2.2.
Add a new value in stats ctx: field.
Implement field support in line dumping parent functions
stats_print_proxy_field_json() and stats_dump_proxy_to_buffer().
This will allow child dumping functions to support partial line dumping
when needed. ie: when dumping buffer is exhausted: do a partial send and
wait for a new buffer to finish the dump. Thanks to field ctx, the function
can start dumping where it left off on previous (unterminated) invokation.
Extract function h2_parse_cont_len_header() in the generic HTTP module.
This allows to reuse it for all HTTP/x parsers. The function is now
available as http_parse_cont_len_header().
Most notably, this will be reused in the next bugfix for the H3 parser.
This is necessary to check that content-length header match the length
of DATA frames.
Thus, it must be backported to 2.6.
qc_new_conn() is used to allocate a quic_conn instance and its various
internal members. If one allocation fails, quic_conn_release() is used
to cleanup things.
For the moment, pool_zalloc() is used which ensures that all content is
null. However, some members must be initialized to a special values
to be able to use quic_conn_release() safely. This is the case for
quic_conn lists and its tasklet.
Also, some quic_conn internal allocation functions were doing their own
cleanup on failure without reset to NULL. This caused an issue with
quic_conn_release() which also frees this members. To fix this, these
functions now only return an error without cleanup. It is the caller
responsibility to free the allocated content, which is done via
quic_conn_release().
Without this patch, allocation failure in qc_new_conn() would often
result in segfault. This was reproduced easily using fail-alloc at 10%.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
This patch introduces haproxy_backend_agg_check_status metric
as we wanted in 42d7c402d but with the right data source.
This patch could be backported as far as 2.4.
haproxy_backend_agg_server_check_status currently aggregates
haproxy_server_status instead of haproxy_server_check_status.
We deprecate this and create a new one,
haproxy_backend_agg_server_status to clarify what it really
does.
This patch could be backported as far as 2.4.
Since the massive pools cleanup that happened in 2.6, the pools
architecture was made quite more hierarchical and many alternate code
blocks could be moved to runtime flags set by -dM. One of them had not
been converted by then, DEBUG_UAF. It's not much more difficult actually,
since it only acts on a pair of functions indirection on the slow path
(OS-level allocator) and a default setting for the cache activation.
This patch adds the "uaf" setting to the options permitted in -dM so
that it now becomes possible to set or unset UAF at boot time without
recompiling. This is particularly convenient, because every 3 months on
average, developers ask a user to recompile haproxy with DEBUG_UAF to
understand a bug. Now it will not be needed anymore, instead the user
will only have to disable pools and enable uaf using -dMuaf. Note that
-dMuaf only disables previously enabled pools, but it remains possible
to re-enable caching by specifying the cache after, like -dMuaf,cache.
A few tests with this mode show that it can be an interesting combination
which catches significantly less UAF but will do so with much less
overhead, so it might be compatible with some high-traffic deployments.
The change is very small and isolated. It could be helpful to backport
this at least to 2.7 once confirmed not to cause build issues on exotic
systems, and even to 2.6 a bit later as this has proven to be useful
over time, and could be even more if it did not require a rebuild. If
a backport is desired, the following patches are needed as well:
CLEANUP: pools: move the write before free to the uaf-only function
CLEANUP: pool: only include pool-os from pool.c not pool.h
REORG: pool: move all the OS specific code to pool-os.h
CLEANUP: pools: get rid of CONFIG_HAP_POOLS
DEBUG: pool: show a few examples in -dMhelp
This one was set in defaults.h only when neither DEBUG_NO_POOLS nor
DEBUG_UAF were set. This was not the most convenient location to look
for it, and it was only used in pool.c to decide on the initial value
of POOL_DBG_NO_CACHE.
Let's just use DEBUG_NO_POOLS || DEBUG_UAF directly on this flag and
get rid of the intermediary condition. This also has the benefit of
removing a double inversion, which is always nice for understanding.
Till now pool-os used to contain a mapping from pool_{alloc,free}_area()
to pool_{alloc,free}_area_uaf() in case of DEBUG_UAF, or the regular
malloc-based function. And the *_uaf() functions were in pool.c. But
since 2.4 with the first cleanup of the pools, there has been no more
calls to pool_{alloc,free}_area() from anywhere but pool.c, from exactly
one place each. As such, there's no more need to keep *_uaf() apart in
pool.c, we can inline it into pool-os.h and leave all the OS stuff there,
with pool.c calling either based on DEBUG_UAF. This is cleaner with less
round trips between both files and easier to find.
There's no need for the low-level pool functions to be known from all
callers anymore, they're only used by pool.c. Let's reduce the amount
of header files processed.
We get a build error in ncbuf.c when building for ARMv8.2-a because ncbuf
has minimal includes and among them bug.h which includes atomic.h. Atomic.h
may use "forceinline" without including compiler.h, hence the build error.
It was verified that adding it doesn't inflate the total headers.
Since all other C files include api.h which already covers this, there's
no real need to bapkport this. The issue was already there in 2.3 though.
With previous commit, 9e080bf ("BUG/MINOR: checks: make sure fastinter is used
even on forced transitions"), on-error mark-down|sudden-death|fail-check are
now working as expected.
However, on-error fastinter remains broken because srv_getinter(), used in
the above commit to check the expiration date, won't return fastinter interval
if server health is maxed out (which is the case with on-error fastinter mode).
To fix this, we introduce a check flag named CHK_ST_FASTINTER.
This flag is set when on-error is triggered. This way we can force
srv_getinter() to return fastinter interval whenever the flag is set.
The flag is automatically cleared as soon as the new check task expiry is
recalculated in process_chk_conn().
This restores original behavior prior to d114f4a ("MEDIUM: checks: spread the
checks load over random threads").
It must be backported to 2.7 along with the aforementioned commits.
We're using srv_update_status() as the only event source or UP/DOWN server
events in an attempt to simplify the support for these 2 events.
It seems srv_update_status() is the common path for server state changes anyway
Tested with server state updated from various sources:
- the cli
- server-state file (maybe we could disable this or at least don't publish
in global event queue in the future if it ends in slower startup for setups
relying on huge server state files)
- dns records (ie: srv template)
(again, could be fined tuned to only publish in server specific subscriber
list and no longer in global subscription list if mass dns update tend to
slow down srv_update_status())
- normal checks and observe checks (HCHK_STATUS_HANA)
(same as above, if checks related state update storms are expected)
- lua scripts
- html stats page (admin mode)
Basic support for ADD and DEL server events are added through this commit:
SERVER_ADD is published on dynamic server addition through cli.
SERVER_DEL is published on dynamic server deletion through cli.
This work depends on:
"MINOR: event_hdl: add event handler base api"
"MINOR: server: add srv->rid (revision id) value"
Make use of the new srv->rid value in stats.
Stat is referred as ST_F_SRID, it is now used in stats_fill_sv_stats
function in order to be included in csv and json stats dumps.
Moreover, "rid: $value" will be displayed next to server puid
in html stats page if "stats show-legend" is specified in the stats frontend.
(mouse hovering tooltip)
Depends on the following commit:
"MINOR: server: add srv->rid (revision id) value"
With current design, we could not distinguish between
previously existing deleted server and a new server reusing
the deleted server name/id.
This can cause some confusion when auditing stats/events/logs,
because the new server will look similar to the old
one.
To address this, we're adding a new value in server structure: rid
rid (revision id) value is an unsigned 32bits value that is set upon
server creation. Value is derived from a global counter that starts
at 0 and is incremented each time one or multiple server deletions are
followed by a server addition (meaning that old name/id reuse could occur).
Thanks to this revision id, it is now easy to tell whether the server
we're looking at is the same as before or if it has been deleted and
re-added in the meantime.
(combining server name/id + server revision id yields a process-wide unique
identifier)
UDP addresses may change over time for a QUIC connection. When using
quic-conn owned socket, we have to detect address change to break the
bind/connect association on the socket.
For the moment, on change detected, QUIC connection socket is closed and
a new one is opened. In the future, we may improve this by trying to
keep the original socket and reexecute only bind/connect syscalls.
This change is part of quic-conn owned socket implementation.
It may be backported to 2.7 after a period of observation.
This change is the second part for reception on QUIC connection socket.
All operations inside the FD handler has been delayed to quic-conn
tasklet via the new function qc_rcv_buf().
With this change, buffer management on reception has been simplified. It
is now possible to use a local buffer inside qc_rcv_buf() instead of
quic_receiver_buf().
This change is part of quic-conn owned socket implementation.
It may be backported to 2.7 after a period of observation.
Try to use the quic-conn socket for reception if it is allocated. For
this, the socket is inserted in the fdtab. This will call the new
handler quic_conn_io_cb() which is responsible to process the recv()
system call. It will reuse datagram dispatch for simplicity. However,
this is guaranteed to be called on the quic-conn thread, so it will be
more efficient to use a dedicated buffer. This will be implemented in
another commit.
This patch should improve performance by reducing contention on the
receiver socket. However, more gain can be obtained when the datagram
dispatch operation will be skipped.
Older quic_sock_fd_iocb() is renamed to quic_lstnr_sock_fd_iocb() to
emphasize its usage for the receiver socket.
This change is part of quic-conn owned socket implementation.
It may be backported to 2.7 after a period of observation.
Allocate quic-conn owned socket if possible. This requires that this is
activated in haproxy configuration. Also, this is done only if local
address is known so it depends on the support of IP_PKTINFO.
For the moment this socket is not used. This causes QUIC support to be
broken as received datagram are not read. This commit will be completed
by a following patch to support recv operation on the newly allocated
socket.
This change is part of quic-conn owned socket implementation.
It may be backported to 2.7 after a period of observation.
To be able to use individual sockets for QUIC connections, we rely on
the OS network stack which must support UDP sockets binding on the same
local address.
Add a detection code for this feature executed on startup. When the
first QUIC listener socket is binded, a test socket is created and
binded on the same address. If the bind call fails, we consider that
it's impossible to use individual socket for QUIC connections.
A new global option GTUNE_QUIC_SOCK_PER_CONN is defined. If startup
detect fails, this value is resetted from global options. For the
moment, there is no code to activate the option : this will be in a
follow-up patch with the introduction of a new configuration option.
This change is part of quic-conn owned socket implementation.
It may be backported to 2.7 after a period of observation.
Detect connection migration attempted by the client. This is done by
comparing addresses stored in quic-conn with src/dest addresses of the
UDP datagram.
A new function qc_handle_conn_migration() has been added. For the
moment, no operation is conducted and the function will be completed
during connection migration implementation. The only notable things is
the increment of a new counter "quic_conn_migration_done".
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Complete ipcmp() function with a new argument <check_port>. If this
argument is true, the function will compare port values besides IP
addresses and return true only if both are identical.
This commit will simplify QUIC connection migration detection. As such,
it should be backported to 2.7.
Extract individual datagram parsing code outside of datagrams list loop
in quic_lstnr_dghdlr(). This is moved in a new function named
quic_dgram_parse().
To complete this change, quic_lstnr_dghdlr() has been moved into
quic_sock source file : it belongs to QUIC socket lower layer and is
directly called by quic_sock_fd_iocb().
This commit will ease implementation of quic-conn owned socket.
New function quic_dgram_parse() will be easily usable after a receive
operation done on quic-conn IO-cb.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
quic_rx_packet struct had a reference to the quic_conn instance. This is
useless as qc instance is always passed through function argument. In
fact, pkt.qc is used only in qc_pkt_decrypt() on key update, even though
qc is also passed as argument.
Simplify this by removing qc field from quic_rx_packet structure
definition. Also clean up qc_pkt_decrypt() documentation and interface
to align it with other quic-conn related functions.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Rename the structure "cert_key_and_chain" to "ckch_data" in order to
avoid confusion with the store whcih often called "ckchs".
The "cert_key_and_chain *ckch" were renamed "ckch_data *data", so we now
have store->data instead of ckchs->ckch.
Marked medium because it changes the API.
Adding base code to provide subscribe/publish API for internal
events processing.
event_hdl provides two complementary APIs, both are implemented
in src/event_hdl.c and include/haproxy/event_hdl{-t.h,.h}:
One API targeting developers that want to register event handlers
that will be notified on specific events.
(SUBSCRIBE)
One API targeting developers that want to notify registered handlers
about an event.
(PUBLISH)
This feature is being considered to address the following scenarios:
- mailers code refactoring (getting rid of deprecated
tcp-check ruleset implementation)
- server events from lua code (registering user defined
lua function that is executed with relevant data when a
server is dynamically added/removed or on server state change)
- providing a stable and easy to use API for upcoming
developments that rely on specific events to perform actions.
(e.g: ressource cleanup when a server is deleted from haproxy)
At this time though, we don't have much use cases in mind in addition to
server events handling, but the API is aimed at being multipurpose
so that new event families, with their own particularities, can be
easily implemented afterwards (and hopefully) without requiring breaking
changes to the API.
Moreover, you should know that the API was not designed to cope well
with high rate event publishing.
Mostly because publishing means iterating over unsorted subscriber list.
So it won't scale well as subscriber list increases, but it is intended in
order to keep the code simple and versatile.
Instead, it is assumed that events implemented using this API
should be periodic events, and that events related to critical
io/networking processing should be handled using
dedicated facilities anyway.
(After all, this is meant to be a general purpose event API)
Apart from being easily extensible, one of the main goals of this API is
to make subscriber code as simple and safe as possible.
This is done by offering multiple event handling modes:
- SYNC mode:
publishing code directly
leverages handler code (callback function)
and handler code has a direct access to "live" event data
(pointers mostly, alongside with lock hints/context
so that accessing data pointers can be done properly)
- normal ASYNC mode:
handler is executed in a backward compatible way with sync mode,
so that it is easy to switch from and to SYNC/ASYNC mode.
Only here the handler has access to "offline" event data, and
not "live" data (ptrs) so that data consistency is guaranteed.
By offline, you should understand "snapshot" of relevant data
at the time of the event, so that the handler can consume it
later (even if associated ressource is not valid anymore)
- advanced ASYNC mode
same as normal ASYNC mode, but here handler is not a function
that is executed with event data passed as argument: handler is a
user defined tasklet that is notified when event occurs.
The tasklet may consume pending events and associated data
through its own message queue.
ASYNC mode should be considered first if you don't rely on live event
data and you wan't to make sure that your code has the lowest impact
possible on publisher code. (ie: you don't want to break stuff)
Internal API documentation will follow:
You will find more details about the notions we roughly approached here.
WolfSSL does not implement the TLS1_3_CK_AES_128_CCM_SHA256 cipher as
well as the SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC, SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC_JOB and
SSL_ERROR_WANT_CLIENT_HELLO_CB error codes.
This patch disables them for WolfSSL.

The function used to calculate the shard number currently requires a
stktable_key on input for this. Unfortunately, it happens that peers
currently miss this calculation and they do not provide stktable_key
at all, instead they're open-coding all the low-level stick-table work
(hence why it's missing). Thus we'll need to be able to calculate the
shard number in keys coming from peers as well but the current API does
not make it possible.
This commit addresses this by inverting the order where the length and
the shard number are used. Now the low-level function is independent on
stksess and stktable_key, it takes a table, pointer and length and does
all the job. The upper function takes care of the type and key to get
the its length, and is for use only from stick-table code.
This doesn't change anything except that the low-level one will be usable
from outside (hence why it's exported now).
ncbuf API relies on lot of small functions. Mark these functions as
inline to reduce call invocations and facilitate compiler optimizations
to reduce code size.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Instead of using memcpy() to concatenate the table's name to the key when
allocating an stksess, let's compute once for all a per-table seed at boot
time and use it to calculate the key's hash. This saves two memcpy() and
the usage of a chunk, it's always nice in a fast path.
When tested under extreme conditions with a 80-byte long table name, it
showed a 1% performance increase.
With an OpenSSL library which use the wrong OPENSSLDIR, HAProxy tries to
load the OPENSSLDIR/certs/ into @system-ca, but emits a warning when it
can't.
This patch fixes the issue by allowing to shut the error when the SSL
configuration for the httpclient is not explicit.

A number of internal flags started to be exposed to external programs
at the location of their definition since commit 77acaf5af ("MINOR:
flags: add a new file to host flag dumping macros"). This allowed the
"flags" utility to decode many more of them and always correctly. The
condition to expose them was to rely on the preliminary definition of
EOF that indicates that stdio is already included. But this was a
wrong approach. It only guarantees that snprintf() can safely be used
but still causes large functions to be built. But stdio is often
included before some of these includes, so these heavy inline functions
actually have to be compiled in many cases. The result is that the
build time significantly increased, especially with fast compilers
like gcc -O0 which took +50% or TCC which took +100%!
This patch addresses the problem by instead relying on an explicit
macro HA_EXPOSE_FLAGS that the calling program must explicitly define
before including these files. flags.c does this and that's all. The
previous build time is now restored with a speed up of 20 to 50%
depending on the build options.
These includes brought by commit 9c76637ff ("MINOR: anon: add new macros
and functions to anonymize contents") resulted in an increase of exactly
20% of the number of lines to build. These include are not needed there,
only tools.c needs xxhash.h.
Building with TCC caused a warning on __attribute__() being redefined,
because we do define it on compilers that don't have it, but we didn't
include the compiler's definitions first to leave it a chance to expose
its definitions. The correct way to do this would be to include
sys/cdefs.h but we currently don't include it explicitly and a few
reports on the net mention some platforms where it could be missing
by default. Let's use inttypes.h instead, it always causes it (or its
equivalent) to be included and we know it's present on supported
platforms since we already depend on it.
No backport is needed.
The issue addressed by commit fbb934da9 ("BUG/MEDIUM: stick-table: fix
a race condition when updating the expiration task") is still present
when thread groups are enabled, but this time it lies in the scheduler.
What happens is that a task configured to run anywhere might already
have been queued into one group's wait queue. When updating a stick
table entry, sometimes the task will have to be dequeued and requeued.
For this a lock is taken on the current thread group's wait queue lock,
but while this is necessary for the queuing, it's not sufficient for
dequeuing since another thread might be in the process of expiring this
task under its own group's lock which is different. This is easy to test
using 3 stick tables with 1ms expiration, 3 track-sc rules and 4 thread
groups. The process crashes almost instantly under heavy traffic.
One approach could consist in storing the group number the task was
queued under in its descriptor (we don't need 32 bits to store the
thread id, it's possible to use one short for the tid and another
one for the tgrp). Sadly, no safe way to do this was figured, because
the race remains at the moment the thread group number is checked, as
it might be in the process of being changed by another thread. It seems
that a working approach could consist in always having it associated
with one group, and only allowing to change it under this group's lock,
so that any code trying to change it would have to iterately read it
and lock its group until the value matches, confirming it really holds
the correct lock. But this seems a bit complicated, particularly with
wait_expired_tasks() which already uses upgradable locks to switch from
read state to a write state.
Given that the shared tasks are not that common (stick-table expirations,
rate-limited listeners, maybe resolvers), it doesn't seem worth the extra
complexity for now. This patch takes a simpler and safer approach
consisting in switching back to a single wq_lock, but still keeping
separate wait queues. Given that shared wait queues are almost always
empty and that otherwise they're scanned under a read lock, the
contention remains manageable and most of the time the lock doesn't
even need to be taken since such tasks are not present in a group's
queue. In essence, this patch reverts half of the aforementionned
patch. This was tested and confirmed to work fine, without observing
any performance degradation under any workload. The performance with
8 groups on an EPYC 74F3 and 3 tables remains twice the one of a
single group, with the contention remaining on the table's lock first.
No backport is needed.
In order to evenly pick idle connections from other threads, there is
a "next_takeover" index in the server, that is incremented each time
a connection is picked from another thread, and indicates which one to
start from next time.
With thread groups this doesn't work well because the index is the same
regardless of the group, and if a group has more threads than another,
there's even a risk to reintroduce an imbalance.
This patch introduces a new per-tgroup storage in servers which, for now,
only contains an instance of this next_takeover index. This way each
thread will now only manipulate the index specific to its own group, and
the takeover will become fair again. More entries may come soon.
In 2.2, some idle conns usage metrics were added by commit cf612a045
("MINOR: servers: Add a counter for the number of currently used
connections."), which mentioned that the operation doesn't need to be
atomic since we're not seeking exact values. This is true but at least
we should use atomic stores to make sure not to cause invalid values
to appear on archs that wouldn't guarantee atomicity when writing an
int, such as writing two 16-bit words. This is pretty unlikely on our
targets but better keep the code safe against this.
This may be backported as far as 2.2.
The "show pools" command is used a lot for debugging but didn't get much
love over the years. This patch brings new capabilities:
- sorting the output by pool names to ese their finding ("byname").
- sorting the output by reverse item size to spot the biggest ones("bysize")
- sorting the output by reverse number of allocated bytes ("byusage")
The last one (byusage) also omits displaying the ones with zero allocation.
In addition, an optional max number of output entries may be passed so as
to dump only the N most relevant ones.
This previous patch was not sufficient to prevent haproxy from
crashing when some Handshake packets had to be inspected before being possibly
retransmitted:
"BUG/MAJOR: quic: Crash upon retransmission of dgrams with several packets"
This patch introduced another issue: access to packets which have been
released because still attached to others (in the same datagram). This was
the case for instance when discarding the Initial packet number space before
inspecting an Handshake packet in the same datagram through its ->prev or
member in our case.
This patch implements quic_tx_packet_dgram_detach() which detaches a packet
from the adjacent ones in the same datagram to be called when ackwowledging
a packet (as done in the previous commit) and when releasing its memory. This
was, we are sure the released packets will not be accessed during retransmissions.
Thank you to @gabrieltz for having reported this issue in GH #1903.
Must be backported to 2.6.
As revealed by some traces provided by @gabrieltz in GH #1903 issue,
there are clients (chrome I guess) which acknowledge only one packet among others
in the same datagram. This is the case for the first datagram sent by a QUIC haproxy
listener made an Initial packet followed by an Handshake one. In this identified
case, this is the Handshake packet only which is acknowledged. But if the
client is able to respond with an Handshake packet (ACK frame) this is because
it has successfully parsed the Initial packet. So, why not also acknowledging it?
AFAIK, this is mandatory. On our side, when restransmitting this datagram, the
Handshake packet was accessed from the Initial packet after having being released.
Anyway. There is an issue on our side. Obviously, we must not expect an
implementation to respect the RFC especially when it want to build an attack ;)
With this simple patch for each TX packet we send, we also set the previous one
in addition to the next one. When a packet is acknowledged, we detach the next one
and the next one in the same datagram from this packet, so that it cannot be
resent when resending these packets (the previous one, in our case).
Thank you to @gabrieltz for having reported this issue.
Must be backported to 2.6.
In diag mode, the section position is checked and a warning is emitted if a
global section is defined after any non-global one. Now, this check is
always performed. But the warning is still only emitted in diag mode. In
addition, the result of this check is now stored in a global variable, to be
used from anywhere.
The aim of this patch is to be able to restrict usage of some global
directives to the very first global sections. It will be useful to avoid
undefined behaviors. Indeed, some config parts may depend on global settings
and it is a problem if these settings are changed after.
h1_process_mux() is written to allow partial headers formatting. For now,
all headers are forwarded in one time. But it is still good to keep this
ability at the H1 mux level. So we must rely on a H1S flag instead of a
local variable to know a WebSocket key was found in headers to be able to
generate a key if necessary.
There is no reason to backport this patch.
Similarly to the H1 and H2 multiplexers, FCFI_CF_ERR_PENDING is now used to
report an error when we try to send data and FCGI_CF_ERROR to report an
error when we try to read data. In other funcions, we rely on these flags
instead of connection ones. Only FCGI_CF_ERROR is considered as a final
error. FCGI_CF_ERR_PENDING does not block receive attempt.
In addition, FCGI_CF_EOS flag was added. we rely on it to test if a read0
was received or not.
Some fields in h2c structures are not used: .mfl, .mft and .mff. Just remove
them.
.msi field is also removed. It is tested but never set, except when a H2
connection is initialized. It also means h2c_mux_busy() function is useless
because it always returns 0 (.msi is always -1). And thus, by transitivity,
H2_CF_DEM_MBUSY is also useless because it is never set. So .msi field,
h2c_mux_busy() function and H2C_MUX_BUSY flag are removed.
Similarly to the H1 multiplexer, H2_CF_ERR_PENDING is now used to report an
error when we try to send data and H2_CF_ERROR to report an error when we
try to read data. In other funcions, we rely on these flags instead of
connection ones. Only H2_CF_ERROR is considered as a final error.
H2_CF_ERR_PENDING does not block receive attempt.
In addition, we rely on H2_CF_RCVD_SHUT flag to test if a read0 was received
or not.
When the H1 connection is aborted, we no longer set a final error. To do so,
the flag H1C_F_ABORTED was added. For now, it is only set when a error is
detected on the H1 stream. Idea is to use ERR_PENDING/ERROR for upgoing
errors and ABRT_PENDING/ABRTED for downgoing errors.
read0 is now handled with a H1 connection flag (H1C_F_EOS). Corresponding
flag was removed on the H1 stream and we fully rely on the SE descriptor at
the stream level.
Concretly, it means we rely on the H1 connection flags instead of the
connection one. H1C_F_EOS is only set in h1_recv() or h1_rcv_pipe() after a
read if a read0 was detected.
A new error is added on H1 stream to deal with internal errors. For now,
this error is only reported when we fail to create a stream-connector. This
way, the error is reported at the H1 stream level and not the H1 connection
level.
H1C_F_ERR_PENDING flags will be used to refactor error handling at the H1
connection level. It will be used to notify error during sends. Thus, the
flag to notify an error must be sent before closing the connection is now
named H1C_F_ABRT_PENDING.
This introduce a naming convertion: ERROR must be used to notify upper layer
of an event at the lower ones while ABORT must be used in the opposite
direction.
The H1 connection state is now handled in a dedicated state. H1C_F_ST_*
flags are removed. All states are now exclusives. It is easier to know the
H1 connection states. It is alive, or usable, if it is not CLOSING or
CLOSED. It is CLOSING if it should be closed ASAP but a stream is still
attached and/or the output buffer is not empty. CLOSED is used when the H1
connection is ready to be closed. Other states are quite easy to understand.
There is no special changes in the H1 connection behavior. Except in
h1_send(). When a CLOSING connection is CLOSED, the function now reports an
activity. In addition, when an embryonic H1 stream is aborted, it is
destroyed. This way, the H1 connection can be switched to CLOSED state.
The H1 connection state will be handled is a dedicated field. To do so,
h1_cs enum was added. The different states are more or less equivalent to
H1C_F_ST_* flags:
* H1_CS_IDLE <=> H1C_F_ST_IDLE
* H1_CS_EMBRYONIC <=> H1C_F_ST_EMBRYONIC
* H1_CS_UPGRADING <=> H1C_F_ST_ATTACHED && !H1C_F_ST_READY
* H1_CS_RUNNING <=> H1C_F_ST_ATTACHED && H1C_F_ST_READY
* H1_CS_CLOSING <=> H1C_F_ST_SHUTDOWN && (H1C_F_ST_ATTACHED || b_data(&h1c->ibuf))
* H1_CS_CLOSED <=> H1C_F_ST_SHUTDOWN && !H1C_F_ST_ATTACHED && !b_data(&h1c->ibuf)
In addition, in this patch, the h1_is_alive() and h1_close() function are
added. The first one will be used to know if a H1 connection is alive or
not. The second one will be used to set the connection in CLOSING or CLOSED
state, depending on the output buffer state and if there is still a H1
stream or not.
For now, the H1 connection state is not used.
There's quite a large barely readable functions block in the makefile
dedicated to compiler option support. It provides no value here and
makes it harder to find user-configurable stuff, so let's move it to
include/make/compiler.mk to keep the makefile a bit cleaner. It's better
to keep the options themselves in the makefile however.
It's better to see "make" entering a subdir than seeing nothing, so
let's use a command name for make. Since make 3.81, "+" needs to be
prepended in front of the command to pass the job server to the subdir.
The $(Q), $(V), $(cmd_xx) handling needs to be reused in sub-project
makefiles and it's a pain to maintain inside the main makefile. Let's
just move that into a new subdir include/make/ with a dedicated file
"verbose.mk". It slightly cleans up the makefile in addition.
When building with DEBUG_MEM_STATS, we only see b_alloc() and b_free() as
users of the "buffer" pool, because all call places rely on these more
convenient functions. It's annoying because it makes it very hard to see
which parts of the code are consuming buffers.
By switching the b_alloc() and b_free() inline functions to macros, we
can now finally track the users of struct buffer, e.g:
mux_h1.c:513 P_FREE size: 1275002880 calls: 38910 size/call: 32768 buffer
mux_h1.c:498 P_ALLOC size: 1912438784 calls: 58363 size/call: 32768 buffer
stream.c:763 P_FREE size: 4121493504 calls: 125778 size/call: 32768 buffer
stream.c:759 P_FREE size: 2061697024 calls: 62918 size/call: 32768 buffer
stream.c:742 P_ALLOC size: 3341123584 calls: 101963 size/call: 32768 buffer
stream.c:632 P_FREE size: 1275068416 calls: 38912 size/call: 32768 buffer
stream.c:631 P_FREE size: 637435904 calls: 19453 size/call: 32768 buffer
channel.h:850 P_ALLOC size: 4116480000 calls: 125625 size/call: 32768 buffer
channel.h:850 P_ALLOC size: 720896 calls: 22 size/call: 32768 buffer
dynbuf.c:55 P_FREE size: 65536 calls: 2 size/call: 32768 buffer
Let's do this since it doesn't change anything for the output code
(beyond adding the call places). Interestingly the code even got
slightly smaller now.
This macro just serves as an intermediary for __pool_alloc() and forwards
the flag. When DEBUG_MEM_STATS is set, it will be used to collect all
pool allocations including those which need to pass an explicit flag.
It's now used by b_alloc() which previously couldn't be tracked by
DEBUG_MEM_STATS, causing some free() calls to have no corresponding
allocations.
Similarly to the previous patch, it's better to keep a local copy of
the new node's key instead of accessing it every time. This slightly
reduces the code's size in the descent and further improves the load
time to 7.45s.
looking at a perf profile while loading a conf with a huge map, it
appeared that there was a hot spot on the access to the new node's
prefix, which is unexpectedly being reloaded for each visited node
during the tree descent. Better keep a copy of it because with large
trees that don't fit into the L3 cache the memory bandwidth is scarce.
Doing so reduces the load time from 8.0 to 7.5 seconds.
Once in a while we spot a bug in the deinit code that is complex,
especially when it has to deal with incomplete initializations, and the
ability to bypass this step has regularly been raised. In addition for
fast-reloading setups it could theoretically save some time. Tests have
shown that very large configs can barely save ~100-150ms by skipping the
deinit step. However the ability not to crash if a bug is encountered can
occasionally help.
This patch adds an option to do exactly this. It's obviously not enabled
by default and the documentation discourages from using it, but this might
be useful in the future.
The ->exp_next field of the stick-table was probably useful in 1.5 but
it currently only carries a copy of what the future value of the table's
task's expire value will be, while it's systematically copied over there
immediately after being assigned. As such it provides exactly a local
variable. Let's remove it, as it costs atomic operations.
Coverity raised a potential overflow issue in these new functions that
work on unsigned long long objects. They were added in commit 9b25982
"BUG/MEDIUM: ssl: Verify error codes can exceed 63".
This patch needs to be backported alongside 9b25982.
When the code is preprocessed first and compiled later, such as when
built under distcc, a lot of fallthrough warnings are emitted because
the preprocessor has already stripped the comments.
As an alternative, a "fallthrough" attribute was added with the same
compilers as those which started to emit those warnings. However it's
not portable to older compilers. Let's just define a __fallthrough
statement that corresponds to this attribute on supported compilers
and only switches to the classical empty do {} while (0) on other ones.
This way the code will support being cleaned up using __fallthrough.
It happens that gcc since 5.x has this macro which is only mentioned
once in the doc, associated with __builtin_has_attribute(). Clang had
it at least since 3.0. In addition it validates #ifdef when present,
so it's easy to detect it. Here we're providing a fallback to another
macro __has_attribute_<name> so that it's possible to define that macro
to the value 1 for older compilers when the attribute is supported.
In order to simplify compiler-specific checks, we'll need to check if some
attributes exist. In order to ease declarations, we'll only focus on those
that exist and will set them to 1. Let's first add a macro aimed at doing
this. Passed a macro name in argument, it will return 1 if the macro is
defined and equals 1, otherwise it will return 0. This is based on the
concatenation of the macro's value with a name to form the name of a macro
which contains one comma, resulting in some other macros arguments being
shifted by one when the macro is defined. As such it's only a matter of
pushing both a 1 and a 0 and picking the correct argument to see the
desired one. It was verified to work since at least gcc-3.4 so it should
be portable enough.
When the code is preprocessed first and compiled later, such as when
built under distcc, the "fall through" comments are dropped and warnings
are emitted. Let's use the alternative "fallthrough" attribute instead,
that is supported by versions of gcc and clang that also produce this
warning.
This is libslz upstream commit 0fdf8ae218f3ecb0b7f22afd1a6b35a4f94053e2
This is the latest released version and a minor update on top of the
current one (0.8.0). It addresses a few build issues (some for which
patches were already backported), and particularly the fallthrough
issue by using an attribute instead of a comment.
HA_WEAK() is supposed to take a symbol in argument, not a string, since
the asm statements it produces already quote the argument. Having it
quoted twice doesn't work on older compilers and was the only reason
why DEBUG_MEM_STATS didn't work on older compilers.
CLI 'add server' handler relies on usermsgs_ctx to display errors in
internal function on CLI output. This may be also extended to other
handlers.
However, to not clutter stderr from another contextes, usermsgs_ctx must
be resetted when it is not needed anymore. This operation cannot be
conducted in the CLI parse handler as display is conducted after it.
To achieve this, define new CLI states CLI_ST_PRINT_UMSG /
CLI_ST_PRINT_UMSGERR. Their principles is nearly identical to states for
dynamic messages printing.
Rename CLI_ST_PRINT_FREE to CLI_ST_PRINT_DYNERR.
Most notably, this highlights that this is reserved to error printing.
This is done to ensure consistency between CLI_ST_PRINT/CLI_ST_PRINT_DYN
and CLI_ST_PRINT_ERR/CLI_ST_PRINT_DYNERR. The name is also consistent
with the function cli_dynerr() which activates it.
The ca-ignore-err and crt-ignore-err directives are now able to use the
openssl X509_V_ERR constant names instead of the numerical values.
This allow a configuration to survive an OpenSSL upgrade, because the
numerical ID can change between versions. For example
X509_V_ERR_INVALID_CA was 24 in OpenSSL 1 and is 79 in OpenSSL 3.
The list of errors must be updated when a new major OpenSSL version is
released.
The CRT and CA verify error codes were stored in 6 bits each in the
xprt_st field of the ssl_sock_ctx meaning that only error code up to 63
could be stored. Likewise, the ca-ignore-err and crt-ignore-err options
relied on two unsigned long longs that were used as bitfields for all
the ignored error codes. On the latest OpenSSL1.1.1 and with OpenSSLv3
and newer, verify errors have exceeded this value so these two storages
must be increased. The error codes will now be stored on 7 bits each and
the ignore-err bitfields are replaced by a big enough array and
dedicated bit get and set functions.
It can be backported on all stable branches.

Add a new counter "quic_rxbuf_full". It is incremented each time
quic_sock_fd_iocb() is interrupted on full buffer.
This should help to debug github issue #1903. It is suspected that
QUIC receiver buffers are full which in turn cause quic_sock_fd_iocb()
to be called repeatedly resulting in a high CPU consumption.
Subscribing was not properly designed between quic-conn and quic MUX
layers. Align this as with in other haproxy components : <subs> field is
moved from the MUX to the quic-conn structure. All mention of qcc MUX is
cleaned up in quic_conn_subscribe()/quic_conn_unsubscribe().
Thanks to this change, ACK reception notification has been simplified.
It's now unnecessary to check for the MUX existence before waking it.
Instead, if <subs> quic-conn field is set, just wake-up the upper layer
tasklet without mentionning MUX. This should probably be extended to
other part in quic-conn code.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Add "shards" new keyword for "peers" section to configure the number
of peer shards attached to such secions. This impact all the stick-tables
attached to the section.
Add "shard" new "server" parameter to configure the peers which participate to
all the stick-tables contents distribution. Each peer receive the stick-tables updates
only for keys with this shard value as distribution hash. The "shard" value
is stored in ->shard new server struct member.
cfg_parse_peers() which is the function which is called to parse all
the lines of a "peers" section is modified to parse the "shards" parameter
stored in ->nb_shards new peers struct member.
Add srv_parse_shard() new callback into server.c to pare the "shard"
parameter.
Implement stksess_getkey_hash() to compute the distribution hash for a
stick-table key as the 64-bits xxhash of the key concatenated to the stick-table
name. This function is called by stksess_setkey_shard(), itself
called by the already implemented function which create a new stick-table
key (stksess_new()).
Add ->idlen new stktable struct member to store the stick-table name length
to not have to compute it each time a stick-table key hash is computed.
This patch complete the previous incomplete commit. The new counter
sendto_err_unknown is now displayed on stats page/CLI show stats.
This is related to github issue #1903.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Remove ABORT_NOW() statement on unhandled sendto error. Instead use a
dedicated counter sendto_err_unknown to report these cases.
If we detect increment of this counter, strace can be used to detect
errno value :
$ strace -p $(pidof haproxy) -f -e trace=sendto -Z
This should be backported up to 2.6.
This should help to debug github issue #1903.
Max stream data was not enforced and respect for local/remote uni
streams. Previously, qcs instances incorrectly reused the limit defined
from bidirectional ones.
This is now fixed. Two fields are added in qcc structure connection :
* value for local flow control to enforce on remote uni streams
* value for remote flow control to respect on local uni streams
These two values can be reused to properly initialized msd field of a
qcs instance in qcs_new(). The rest of the code is similar.
This must be backported up to 2.6.
adding a new mt macro: MT_LIST_APPEND_LOCKED.
This macro may be used to append an item to an existing
list, like MT_LIST_APPEND.
But here the item will be forced into locked/busy state
prior to appending, so that it is already referenced
in the list while still preventing concurrent accesses
until we decide to unlock it.
The macro returns a struct mt_list "np", that is needed
at unlock time using regular MT_LIST_UNLOCK_ELT macro.
MT_LIST_LOCK_ELT macro was documented with an ambiguous
usage restriction, implying that concurrent list deletion
was not supported.
But it seems that either the code has evolved, or the comment is
wrong because the locking behavior implemented here is exactly
the same one used in MT_LIST_DELETE, and no such restriction is
described for MT_LIST_DELETE.
I made some tests to make sure concurrent MT_LIST_DELETE (or deletion
from mt_list_for_each_entry_safe) don't cause unexepected results.
At the present time, this macro is not used, this fix only
targets upcoming developments that might rely on this.
No backport needed.
A minor typo was made in MT_LIST_LOCK_ELT, preventing
haproxy from compiling if MT_LIST_LOCK_ELT is
used in the code.
Today, the macro is unused, and that's the reason why
the typo has remained unnoticed for such a long time.
Fixing it so it can be used in upcoming developments.
No backport required.
When the lua task finished before the httpclient that are associated to
it, there is a risk that the httpclient try to task_wakeup() the lua
task which does not exist anymore.
To fix this issue the httpclient used in a lua task are stored in a
list, and the httpclient are destroyed at the end of the lua task.
Must be backported in 2.5 and 2.6.
Received packets treatment has some difference regarding if this is the
first one or not of the encapsulating datagram. Previously, this was set
via a function argument. Simplify this by defining a new Rx packet flag
named QUIC_FL_RX_PACKET_DGRAM_FIRST.
This change does not have functional impact. It will simplify API when
qc_lstnr_pkt_rcv() is broken into several functions : their number of
arguments will be reduced thanks to this patch.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
pn_offset field was only set if header protection cannot be removed.
Extend the usage of this field : it is now set everytime on packet
parsing in qc_lstnr_pkt_rcv().
This change helps to clean up API of Rx functions by removing
unnecessary variables and function argument.
This change has no functional impact. It is a part of a refactoring
series on qc_lstnr_pkt_rcv(). The objective is facilitate integration of
FD-owned socket patches.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Add a new field version on quic_rx_packet structure. This is set on
header parsing in qc_lstnr_pkt_rcv() function.
This change has no functional impact. It is a part of a refactoring

FD-owned socket patches.

Right now the QUIC thread mapping derives the thread ID from the CID
by dividing by global.nbthread. This is a problem because this makes
QUIC work on all threads and ignores the "thread" directive on the
bind lines. In addition, only 8 bits are used, which is no more
compatible with the up to 4096 threads we may have in a configuration.
Let's modify it this way:
- the CID now dedicates 12 bits to the thread ID
- on output we continue to place the TID directly there.
- on input, the value is extracted. If it corresponds to a valid
thread number of the bind_conf, it's used as-is.
- otherwise it's used as a rank within the current bind_conf's
thread mask so that in the end we still get a valid thread ID
for this bind_conf.
The extraction function now requires a bind_conf in order to get the
group and thread mask. It was better to use bind_confs now as the goal
is to make them support multiple listeners sooner or later.
When compiled with USE_SHM_OPEN=1 the startup-logs are now able to use
an shm which is used to keep the logs when switching to mworker wait
mode. This allows to keep the failed reload logs.
When allocating the startup-logs at first start of the process, haproxy
will do a shm_open with a unique path using the PID of the process, the
file is unlink immediatly so we don't let unwelcomed files be. The fd
resulting from this shm is stored in the HAPROXY_STARTUPLOGS_FD
environment variable so it can be mmap again when switching to wait
mode.
When forking children, the process is copying the mmap to a a mallocated
ring so we never share the same memory section between the master and
the workers. When switching to wait mode, the shm is not used anymore as
it is also copied to a mallocated structure.
This allow to use the "show startup-logs" command over the master CLI,
to get the logs of the latest startup or reload. This way the logs of
the latest failed reload are also kept.
This is only activated on the linux-glibc target for now.
Split the b_force_xfer() into b_ncat() and b_force_xfer().
The previous b_force_xfer() implementation was basically a copy with a
b_del on the src buffer. Keep this implementation to make b_ncat(), and
just call b_ncat() + b_del() into b_force_xfer().
Cast an unified ring + storage area to a ring from area, without
reinitializing the data buffer. Reinitialize the waiters and the lock.
It helps retrieving a previously allocated ring, from an mmap for
example.
QUIC datagrams are read from a random thread. They are then redispatch
to the connection thread according to the first packet DCID. These
operations are implemented through a special buffer designed to avoid
locking.
Refactor this code with the following changes :
* <rxbuf> type is renamed <quic_receiver_buf>. Its list element is also
renamed to highligh its attach point to a receiver.
* <quic_dgram> and <quic_receiver_buf> definition are moved to
quic_sock-t.h. This helps to reduce the size of quic_conn-t.h.
* <quic_dgram> list elements are renamed to highlight their attach point
into a <quic_receiver_buf> and a <quic_dghdlr>.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
rxbuf is the structure used to store QUIC datagrams and redispatch them
to the connection thread.
Each receiver manages a list of rxbuf. This was stored both as an array
and a mt_list. Currently, only mt_list is needed so removed <rxbufs>
member from receiver structure.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Implement quic_tls_secrets_keys_alloc()/quic_tls_secrets_keys_free() to allocate
the memory for only one direction (RX or TX).
Modify ha_quic_set_encryption_secrets() to call these functions for one of this
direction (or both). So, for now on we can rely on the value of the secret keys
to know if it was derived.
Remove QUIC_FL_TLS_SECRETS_SET flag which is no more useful.
Consequently, the secrets are dumped by the traces only if derived.
Must be backported to 2.6.
This issue was reproduced with -Q picoquic client option to split a big ClientHello
message into two Initial packets and haproxy as server without any knowledged of
any previous ORTT session (restarted after a firt 0RTT session). The ORTT received
packets were removed from their queue when the second Initial packet was parsed,
and the QUIC handshake state never progressed and remained at Initial state.
To avoid such situations, after having treated some Initial packets we always
check if there are ORTT packets to parse and we never remove them from their
queue. This will be done after the hanshake is completed or upon idle timeout
expiration.
Also add more traces to be able to analize the handshake progression.
Tested with ngtcp2 and picoquic
Must be backported to 2.6.
Implement quic_get_ncbuf() to dynamically allocate a new ncbuf to be attached to
any quic_cstream struct which needs such a buffer. Note that there is no quic_cstream
for 0RTT encryption level. quic_free_ncbuf() is added to release the memory
allocated for a non-contiguous buffer.
Modify qc_handle_crypto_frm() to call this function and allocate an ncbuf for
crypto data which are not received in order. The crypto data which are received in
order are not buffered but provide to the TLS stack (calling qc_provide_cdata()).
Modify qc_treat_rx_crypto_frms() which is called after having provided the
in order received crypto data to the TLS stack to provide again the remaining
crypto data which has been buffered, if possible (if they are in order). Each time
buffered CRYPTO data were consumed, we try to release the memory allocated for
the non-contiguous buffer (ncbuf).
Also move rx.crypto.offset quic_enc_level struct member to rx.offset quic_cstream
struct member.
Must be backported to 2.6.
Add new quic_cstream struct definition to implement the CRYPTO data stream.
This is a simplication of the qcs object (QUIC streams) for the CRYPTO data
without any information about the flow control. They are not attached to any
tree, but to a QUIC encryption level, one by encryption level except for
the early data encryption level (for 0RTT). A stream descriptor is also allocated
for each CRYPTO data stream.
Must be backported to 2.6
The CPU usage pattern was found to be high (5%) on a machine with
48 threads and only 100 servers checked every second That was
supposed to be only 100 connections per second, which should be very
cheap. It was figured that due to the check tasks unbinding from any
thread when going back to sleep, they're queued into the shared queue.
Not only this requires to manipulate the global queue lock, but in
addition it means that all threads have to check the global queue
before going to sleep (hence take a lock again) to figure how long
to sleep, and that they would all sleep only for the shortest amount
of time to the next check, one would pick it and all other ones would
go down to sleep waiting for the next check.
That's perfectly visible in time-to-first-byte measurements. A quick
test consisting in retrieving the stats page in CSV over a 48-thread
process checking 200 servers every 2 seconds shows the following tail:
percentile ttfb(ms)
99.98 2.43
99.985 5.72
99.99 32.96
99.995 82.176
99.996 82.944
99.9965 83.328
99.997 83.84
99.9975 84.288
99.998 85.12
99.9985 86.592
99.999 88
99.9995 89.728
99.9999 100.352
One solution could consist in forcefully binding checks to threads at
boot time, but that's annoying, will cause trouble for dynamic servers
and may cause some skew in the load depending on some server patterns.
Instead here we take a different approach. A check remains bound to its
thread for as long as possible, but upon every wakeup, the thread's load
is compared with another random thread's load. If it's found that that
other thread's load is less than half of the current one's, the task is
bounced to that thread. In order to prevent that new thread from doing
the same, we set a flag "CHK_ST_SLEEPING" that indicates that it just
woke up and we're bouncing the task only on this condition.
Tests have shown that the initial load was very unfair before, with a few
checks threads having a load of 15-20 and the vast majority having zero.
With this modification, after two "inter" delays, the load is either zero
or one everywhere when checks start. The same test shows a CPU usage that
significantly drops, between 0.5 and 1%. The same latency tail measurement
is much better, roughly 10 times smaller:
percentile ttfb(ms)
99.98 1.647
99.985 1.773
99.99 4.912
99.995 8.76
99.996 8.88
99.9965 8.944
99.997 9.016
99.9975 9.104
99.998 9.224
99.9985 9.416
99.999 9.8
99.9995 10.04
99.9999 10.432
In fact one difference here is that many threads work while in the past
they were waking up and going down to sleep after having perturbated the
shared lock. Thus it is anticipated that this will scale way smoother
than before. Under strace it's clearly visible that all threads are
sleeping for the time it takes to relaunch a check, there's no more
thundering herd wakeups.
However it is also possible that in some rare cases such as very short
check intervals smaller than a scheduler's timeslice (such as 4ms),
some users might have benefited from the work being concentrated on
less threads and would instead observe a small increase of apparent
CPU usage due to more total threads waking up even if that's for less
work each and less total work. That's visible with 200 servers at 4ms
where show activity shows that a few threads were overloaded and others
doing nothing. It's not a problem, though as in practice checks are not
supposed to eat much CPU and to wake up fast enough to represent a
significant load anyway, and the main issue they could have been
causing (aside the global lock) is an increase last-percentile latency.
The new functions fconn_show_flags() and fstrm_show_flags() decode the flags
state into a string, and are used by dev/flags:
$ /dev/flags/flags fconn 0x3100
fconn->flags = FCGI_CF_GET_VALUES | FCGI_CF_KEEP_CONN | FCGI_CF_MPXS_CONNS
./dev/flags/flags fstrm 0x3300
fstrm->flags = FCGI_SF_WANT_SHUTW | FCGI_SF_WANT_SHUTR | FCGI_SF_OUTGOING_DATA | FCGI_SF_BEGIN_SENT
The same was performed for the H2 and H1 multiplexers. FCGI connection and
stream flags are moved in a dedicated header file. It will be mainly used to
be able to decode mux-fcgi flags from the flags utility.
In this patch, we move the flags and enums to mux_fcgi-t.h, as well as the
two state decoding inline functions.
We're generalizing the change performed in previous commit "MEDIUM:
stick-table: requeue the expiration task out of the exclusive lock"
to stktable_requeue_exp() so that it can also be used by callers of
__stktable_store(). At the moment there's still no visible change
since it's still called under the write lock. However, the previous
code in stitable_touch_with_exp() was updated to use this function.
stream_store_counters() calls stksess_kill_if_expired() for each active
counter. And this one takes an exclusive lock on the table before
checking if it has any work to do (hint: it almost never has since it
only wants to delete expired entries). However a lock is still neeed for
now to protect the ref_cnt, but we can do it atomically under the read
lock.
Let's change the mechanism. Now what we do is to check out of the lock
if the entry is expired. If it is, we take the write lock, expire it,
and decrement the refcount. Otherwise we just decrement the refcount
under a read lock. With this change alone, the config based on 3
trackers without the previous patches saw a 2.6x improvement, but here
it doesn't yet change anything because some heavy contention remains
on the lookup part.
Taking the write lock prior to entering that function is a problem
because this function is full of conditions that most of the time can
lead to eliminating the lock.
This commit first moves the write lock inside the function and passes
the extra argument required to implement stktable_touch_remote() and
stktable_touch_local(). It also renames the function to remove the
underscores since there's no other variant and it's exported under
this name (probably an old rename that was not propagated). The code
was stressed under 48 threads using 3 trackers on the same table. It
already shows a tiny 3% improvement from 187k to 193k rps.
Right now a spinlock is used, but most accesses are for reads, so let's
switch the lock to an rwlock and switch all accesses to exclusive locks
for now. There should be no visible difference at this point.
Right now when dealing with freq_ctr updates, we're using the process-
wide monotinic time, and accessing it is expensive since every thread
needs to update it, so this adds some contention. However we don't need
it all the time, the thread's local time is most of the time strictly
equal to the global time, and may be off by one millisecond when the
global time is switched to the next one by another thread, and in this
case we don't want to use the local time because it would risk to cause
a rotation of the counter. But that's precisely the condition we're
already relying on for the slow path!
What this patch does is to add a check for the period against the
local time prior to anything else, and immediately return after
updating the counter if still within the period, otherwise fall back
to the existing code. Given that the function starts to inflate a bit,
it was split between s very short inline part that does the hot path,
and the slower fallback that's in a cold function. It was measured that
on a 24-CPU machine it was called ~0.003% of the time.
The resulting improvement sits between 2 and 3% at 500k req/s tracking
an http_req_rate counter.
The new macro PLOCK_DISABLE_EBO may be defined to disable exponential
backoff. This can be useful to more easily spot functions that cause
contention. In this case the CPU will be spent inside the functions
themselves instead of the pl_wait_unlock_{long,int}() functions, making
them easier to spot using "perf top" even if that causes a significant
degradation of the thread scalability.
The tx_qrings[] and tx_qring_list in the receiver are not used
anymore since commit f2476053f ("MINOR: quic: replace custom buf on Tx
by default struct buffer"), the only place where they're referenced
was in quic_alloc_tx_rings_listener(), which by the way implies that
these were not even freed on exit.
Let's just remove them. This should be backported to 2.6 since the
commit above also was.
Retrieve the frontend destination address for a QUIC connection. This
address is retrieve from the first received datagram and then stored in
the associated quic-conn.
This feature relies on IP_PKTINFO or affiliated flags support on the
socket. This flag is set for each QUIC listeners in
sock_inet_bind_receiver(). To retrieve the destination address,
recvfrom() has been replaced by recvmsg() syscall. This operation and
parsing of msghdr structure has been extracted in a wrapper quic_recv().
This change is useful to finalize the implementation of 'dst' sample
fetch. As such, quic_sock_get_dst() has been edited to return local
address from the quic-conn. As a best effort, if local address is not
available due to kernel non-support of IP_PKTINFO, address of the
listener is returned instead.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Continue on the cleanup of QUIC stack and components.
quic_conn uses internally a ssl_sock_ctx to handle mandatory TLS QUIC
integration. However, this is merely as a convenience, and it is not
equivalent to stackable ssl xprt layer in the context of HTTP1 or 2.
To better emphasize this, ssl_sock_ctx usage in quic_conn has been
removed wherever it is not necessary : namely in functions not related
to TLS. quic_conn struct now contains its own wait_event for tasklet
quic_conn_io_cb().
This should be backported up to 2.6.
In issue #1866 an issue was reported under docker, by which a user cannot
lower the number of FD needed. It looks like a restriction imposed in this
environment, but it results in an error while it ought not have to in the
case of shrinking.
This patch adds a new function raise_rlim_nofile() that takes the desired
new setting, compares it to the current one, and only calls setrlimit() if
one of the values in the new setting is larger than the older one. As such
it will continue to emit warnings and errors in case of failure to raise
the limit but will never shrink it.
This patch is only preliminary to another one, but will have to be
backported where relevant (likely only 2.6).
xprt_quic module was too large and did not reflect the true architecture
by contrast to the other protocols in haproxy.
Extract code related to XPRT layer and keep it under xprt_quic module.
This code should only contains a simple API to communicate between QUIC
lower layer and connection/MUX.
The vast majority of the code has been moved into a new module named
quic_conn. This module is responsible to the implementation of QUIC
lower layer. Conceptually, it overlaps with TCP kernel implementation
when comparing QUIC and HTTP1/2 stacks of haproxy.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
There was some identical code between xprt_quic and quic_enc modules.
This concerns helper on QUIC varint type. Keep only the version in
quic_enc file : this should help to reduce dependency on xprt_quic
module.
Note that quic_max_int_by_size() has been removed and is replaced by the
identical quic_max_int().
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Clean up quic sources by adjusting headers list included depending
on the actual dependency of each source file.
On some occasion, xprt_quic.h was removed from included list. This is
useful to help reducing the dependency on this single file and cleaning
up QUIC haproxy architecture.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Two prototypes in quic_tls module were not identical to the actual
function definition.
* quic_tls_decrypt2() : the second argument const attribute is not
present, to be able to use it with EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctlr(). As a
consequence of this change, token field of quic_rx_packet is now
declared as non-const.
* quic_tls_generate_retry_integrity_tag() : the second argument type
differ between the two. Adjust this by fixing it to as unsigned char
to match EVP_EncryptUpdate() SSL function.
This situation did not seem to have any visible effect. However, this is
clearly an undefined behavior and should be treated as a bug.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Some variables related to QUIC TLS were defined in a header file : their
definitions are now moved properly in the implementation file, with only
declarations in the header.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
In github issue #1878, Bart Butler reported observing turn-around states
(1 second pause) after connection retries going to different servers,
while this ought not happen.
In fact it does happen because back_handle_st_cer() enforces the TAR
state for any algo that's not round-robin. This means that even leastconn
has it, as well as hashes after the number of servers changed.
Prior to doing that, the call to stream_choose_redispatch() has already
had a chance to perform the correct choice and to check the algo and
the number of retries left. So instead we should just let that function
deal with the algo when needed (and focus on deterministic ones), and
let the former just obey. Bart confirmed that the fixed version works
as expected (no more delays during retries).
This may be backported to older releases, though it doesn't seem very
important. At least Bart would like to have it in 2.4 so let's go there
for now after it has cooked a few weeks in 2.6.
Idle connections do not work on 32-bit machines due to an alignment issue
causing the connection nodes to be indexed with their lower 32-bits set to
zero and the higher 32 ones containing the 32 lower bitss of the hash. The
cause is the use of ebmb_node with an aligned data, as on this platform
ebmb_node is only 32-bit aligned, leaving a hole before the following hash
which is a uint64_t:
$ pahole -C conn_hash_node ./haproxy
struct conn_hash_node {
struct ebmb_node node; /* 0 20 */
/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */
int64_t hash; /* 24 8 */
struct connection * conn; /* 32 4 */
/* size: 40, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */
/* sum members: 32, holes: 1, sum holes: 4 */
/* padding: 4 */
/* last cacheline: 40 bytes */
};
Instead, eb64 nodes should be used when it comes to simply storing a
64-bit key, and that is what this patch does.
For backports, a variant consisting in simply marking the "hash" member
with a "packed" attribute on the struct also does the job (tested), and
might be preferable if the fix is difficult to adapt. Only 2.6 and 2.5
are affected by this.
Correct a commentary in in include/haproxy/global-t.h and include/haproxy/tools.h
Replace the CLI command 'set global-key <key>' by 'set anon global-key <key>' in
order to find it easily when you don't remember it, the recommandation can guide
you when you just tap 'set anon'.
No backport needed, except if anonymization mechanism is backported.
Add an option to dump the number lines of the configuration file when
it's dumped. Other options can be easily added. Options are separated
by ',' when tapping the command line:
'./haproxy -dC[key],line -f [file]'
No backport needed, except if anonymization mechanism is backported.
Add a parameter hasport to return a simple hash or ipstring when
ipstring has no port. Doesn't hash if scramble is null. Add
option PA_O_PORT_RESOLVE to str2sa_range. Add a case UNIX.
Those modification permit to use hash_ipanon in cli section
in order to dump the same anonymization of address in the
configuration file and with CLI.
No backport needed, except if anonymization mechanism is backported.
While reading the recent changes around mt_list_for_each_entry_safe() I
noticed a spurious "q" at the beginning of a line introduced by commit
455843721 ("CLEANUP: list: Fix mt_list_for_each_entry_safe indentation")
and that visually confusing multi-line comments missing the trailing '\'
character were introduced by previous commit 60cffbaca ("MINOR: list:
documenting mt_list_for_each_entry_safe() macro"), which at first glance
made the macro look broken. In addition, multi-line comments must end
with a "*/" on its own line to instantly spot where it ends without
having to read the whole line, like this:
/* we know from the above that foo is always valid
* here so it's safe to end the string:
*/
*(unsigned char *)foo = 0;
Not like this:
/* we know from the above that foo is always valid
* here so it's safe to end the string: */
*(unsigned char *)foo = 0;
Finally, macro's main comment mentionned the wrong macro name and types,
and was randomly indented.
Upon a reload with the master CLI, the FD of the master CLI session is
received by the internal socketpair listener.
This session is used to display the status of the reload and then will
close.
- Adding some comments in mt_list_for_each_entry_safe() macro to make it
somehow understandable.
The macro is performing critical stuff but was not documented at all.
Moreover, nested loops with conditional tricks are used,
making it even harder to understand the steps performed in it.
- Updating mt_list_for_each_entry_safe usage example.
- Added a "FIXME:" comment in a specific condition that seems to
never be reached even when deeply stress-testing mt_lists
(using test_list binary provided in the repository).
Pollers that support busy polling spend a lot of time (and cause
contention) updating the global date when they're looping over themselves
while it serves no purpose: what's needed is only an update on the local
date to know when to stop looping.
This patch splits clock_pudate_date() into a pair of local and global
update functions, so that pollers can be easily improved.
Patrick Hemmer reported an improper log behavior when using
log-format to escape log data (+E option):
Some bytes were truncated from the output:
- escape_string() function now takes an extra parameter that
allow the caller to specify input string stop pointer in
case the input string is not guaranteed to be zero-terminated.
- Minors checks were added into lf_text_len() to make sure dst
string will not overflow.
- lf_text_len() now makes proper use of escape_string() function.
This should be backported as far as 1.8.
MUX QUIC snd_buf operation whill return early if a qcs instance is
resetted. In this case, HTX is left untouched and the callback returns
the whole bufer size. This lead to an undefined behavior as the stream
layer is notified about a transfer but does not see its HTX buffer
emptied. In the end, the transfer may stall which will lead to a leak on
session.
To fix this, HTX buffer is now resetted when snd_buf is short-circuited.
This should fix the issue as now the stream layer can continue the
transfer until its completion.
This patch has already been tested by Tristan and is reported to solve
the github issue #1801.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Factorize common code between h3 and hq-interop snd_buf operation. This
is inserted in MUX QUIC snd_buf own callback.
The h3/hq-interop API has been adjusted to directly receive a HTX
message instead of a plain buf. This led to extracting part of MUX QUIC
snd_buf in qmux_http module.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Extract function dealing with HTX outside of MUX QUIC. For the moment,
only rcv_buf stream operation is concerned.
The main objective is to be able to support both TCP and HTTP proxy mode
with a common base and add specialized modules on top of it.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
QUIC MUX implements several APIs to interface with stream, quic-conn and
app-ops layers. It is planified to better separate this roles, possibly
by using several files.
The first step is to extract QUIC MUX traces in a dedicated source
files. This will allow to reuse traces in multiple files.
The main objective is to be
able to support both TCP and HTTP proxy mode with a common base and add
specialized modules on top of it.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
nb_hreq is a counter on qcc for active HTTP requests. It is incremented
for each qcs where a full HTTP request was received. It is decremented
when the stream is closed locally :
- on HTTP response fully transmitted
- on stream reset
A bug will occur if a stream is resetted without having processed a full
HTTP request. nb_hreq will be decremented whereas it was not
incremented. This will lead to a crash when building with
DEBUG_STRICT=2. If BUG_ON_HOT are not active, nb_hreq counter will wrap
which may break the timeout logic for the connection.
This bug was triggered on haproxy.org. It can be reproduced by
simulating the reception of a STOP_SENDING frame instead of a STREAM one
by patching qc_handle_strm_frm() :
+ if (quic_stream_is_bidi(strm_frm->id))
+ qcc_recv_stop_sending(qc->qcc, strm_frm->id, 0);
+ //ret = qcc_recv(qc->qcc, strm_frm->id, strm_frm->len,
+ // strm_frm->offset.key, strm_frm->fin,
+ // (char *)strm_frm->data);
To fix this bug, a qcs is now flagged with a new QC_SF_HREQ_RECV. This
is set when the full HTTP request is received. When the stream is closed
locally, nb_hreq will be decremented only if this flag was set.
This must be backported up to 2.6.
This commit adds a new command line option -dC to dump the configuration
file. An optional key may be appended to -dC in order to produce an
anonymized dump using this key. The anonymizing process uses the same
algorithm as the CLI so that the same key will produce the same hashes
for the same identifiers. This way an admin may share an anonymized
extract of a configuration to match against live dumps. Note that key 0
will not anonymize the output. However, in any case, the configuration
is dumped after tokenizing, thus comments are lost.
In order to allow users to dump internal states using a specific key
without changing the global one, we're introducing a key in the CLI's
appctx. This key is preloaded from the global one when "set anon on"
is used (and if none exists, a random one is assigned). And the key
can optionally be assigned manually for the whole CLI session.
A "show anon" command was also added to show the anon state, and the
current key if the users has sufficient permissions. In addition, a
"debug dev hash" command was added to test the feature.
Add a uint32_t key in global to hash words with it. A new CLI command
'set global-key <key>' was added to change the global anonymizing key.
The global may also be set in the configuration using the global
"anonkey" directive. For now this key is not used.
These macros and functions will be used to anonymize strings by producing
a short hash. This will allow to match config elements against dump elements
without revealing the original data. This will later be used to anonymize
configuration parts and CLI commands output. For now only string, identifiers
and addresses are supported, but the model is easily extensible.
Small cleanup on snd_buf for application protocol layer.
* do not export h3_snd_buf
* replace stconn by a qcs argument. This is better as h3/hq-interop only
uses the qcs instance.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
The new functions h1c_show_flags() and h1s_show_flags() decode the flags
state into a string, and are used by dev/flags:
$ /dev/flags/flags h1c 0x2200
h1c->flags = H1C_F_ST_READY | H1C_F_ST_ATTACHED
./dev/flags/flags h1s 0x190
h1s->flags = H1S_F_BODYLESS_RESP | H1S_F_NOT_FIRST | H1S_F_WANT_KAL
The same was performed for the H2 multiplexer. H1C and H1S flags are moved
in a dedicated header file. It will be mainly used to be able to decode
mux-h1 flags from the flags utility.
In this patch, we only move the flags to mux_h1-t.h.
H3 SETTINGS emission has recently been delayed. The idea is to send it
with the first STREAM to reduce sendto syscall invocation. This was
implemented in the following patch :
3dd79d378c
MINOR: h3: Send the h3 settings with others streams (requests)
This patch works fine under nominal conditions. However, it will cause a
crash if a HTTP/3 connection is released before having sent any data,
for example when receiving an invalid first request. In this case,
qc_release will first free qcc.app_ops HTTP/3 application protocol layer
via release callback. Then qc_send is called to emit any closing frames
built by app_ops release invocation. However, in qc_send, as no data has
been sent, it will try to complete application layer protocol
intialization, with a SETTINGS emission for HTTP/3. Thus, qcc.app_ops is
reused, which is invalid as it has been just freed. This will cause a
crash with h3_finalize in the call stack.
This bug can be reproduced artificially by generating incomplete HTTP/3
requests. This will in time trigger http-request timeout without any
data send. This is done by editing qc_handle_strm_frm function.
- ret = qcc_recv(qc->qcc, strm_frm->id, strm_frm->len,
+ ret = qcc_recv(qc->qcc, strm_frm->id, strm_frm->len - 1,
strm_frm->offset.key, strm_frm->fin,
(char *)strm_frm->data);
To fix this, application layer closing API has been adjusted to be done
in two-steps. A new shutdown callback is implemented : it is used by the
HTTP/3 layer to generate GOAWAY frame in qc_release prologue.
Application layer context qcc.app_ops is then freed later in qc_release
via the release operation which is now only used to liberate app layer
ressources. This fixes the problem as the intermediary qc_send
invocation will be able to reuse app_ops before it is freed.
This patch fixes the crash, but it would be better to adjust H3 SETTINGS
emission in case of early connection closing : in this case, there is no
need to send it. This should be implemented in a future patch.
This should fix the crash recently experienced by Tristan in github
issue #1801.
This must be backported up to 2.6.
With quicTLS the set_encruption_secrets callback is always called with
the read_secret and the write_secret.
However this is not the case with libreSSL, which uses the
set_read_secret()/set_write_secret() mecanism. It still provides the
set_encryption_secrets() callback, which is called with a NULL
parameter for the write_secret during the read, and for the read_secret
during the write.
The exchange key was not designed in haproxy to be called separately for
read and write, so this patch allow calls with read or write key to
NULL.
httpclient_new_from_proxy() is a variant of httpclient_new() which
allows to create the requests from a different proxy.
The proxy and its 2 servers are now stored in the httpclient structure.
The proxy must have been created with httpclient_create_proxy() to be
used.
The httpclient_postcheck() callback will finish the initialization of
all proxies created with PR_CAP_HTTPCLIENT.
httpclient_create_proxy() is a function which creates a proxy that could
be used for the httpclient. It will allocate a proxy, a raw server and
an ssl server.
This patch moves most of the code from httpclient_precheck() into a
generic function httpclient_create_proxy().
The proxy will have the PR_CAP_HTTPCLIENT capability.
This could be used for specifics httpclient instances that needs
different proxy settings.
The init of tcp sink, particularly for SSL, was done
too early in the code, during parsing, and this can cause
a crash specially if nbthread was not configured.
This was detected by William using ASAN on a new regtest
on log forward.
This patch adds the 'struct proxy' created for a sink
to a list and this list is now submitted to the same init
code than the main proxies list or the log_forward's proxies
list. Doing this, we are assured to use the right init sequence.
It also removes the ini code for ssl from post section parsing.
This patch should be backported as far as v2.2
Note: this fix uses 'goto' labels created by commit
'BUG/MAJOR: log-forward: Fix log-forward proxies not fully initialized'
but this code didn't exist before v2.3 so this patch needs to be
adapted for v2.2.
The new functions h2c_show_flags() and h2s_show_flags() decode the flags
state into a string, and are used by dev/flags:
$ ./dev/flags/flags h2c 0x0600
h2c->flags = H2_CF_DEM_IN_PROGRESS | H2_CF_DEM_SHORT_READ
$ ./dev/flags/flags h2s 0x7003
h2s->flags = H2_SF_HEADERS_RCVD | H2_SF_OUTGOING_DATA | H2_SF_HEADERS_SENT \
| H2_SF_ES_SENT | H2_SF_ES_RCVD
Originally in 1.8 we wanted to have an independent mux that could possibly
be disabled and would not impose dependencies on the outside. Everything
would fit into a single C file and that was fine.
Nowadays muxes are unavoidable, and not being able to easily inspect them
from outside is sometimes a bit of a pain. In particular, the flags utility
still cannot be used to decode their flags.
As a first step towards this, this patch moves the flags and enums to
mux_h2-t.h, as well as the two state decoding inline functions. It also
dropped the H2_SS_*_BIT defines that nobody uses. The mux_h2.c file remains
the only one to include that for now.
The new function is fd_show_flags() and it reports known FD flags:
$ ./dev/flags/flags fd 0x000121
fd->flags = FD_POLL_IN | FD_EV_READY_W | FD_EV_ACTIVE_R
The fallback macros for when stdio is not there didn't have the "..."
and were causing build issues on platforms with stricter dependencies
between includes.
This patch is a prerequisite for #1626.
Adding PAUSED state to the list of available proxy states.
The flag is set when the proxy is paused at runtime (pause_listener()).
It is cleared when the proxy is resumed (resume_listener()).
It should be backported to 2.6, 2.5 and 2.4
A minor API change was performed in listener(.c/.h) to restore consistency
between stop_listener() and (resume/pause)_listener() functions.
LISTENER_LOCK was never locked prior to calling stop_listener():
lli variable hint is thus not useful anymore.
Added PROXY_LOCK locking in (resume/pause)_listener() functions
with related lpx variable hint (prerequisite for #1626).
It should be backported to 2.6, 2.5 and 2.4
The new function is strm_et_show_flags(). Only the error type is
handled at the moment, as a bit more complex logic is needed to
mix the values and enums present in some fields.
The two new functions are se_show_flags() and sc_show_flags().
Maybe something could be done for SC_ST_* values but as it's a
small enum, a simple switch/case should work fine.
The two new functions are chn_show_analysers() and chn_show_flags().
They work on an existing buffer so one was declared in flags.c for this
purpose. File flags.c does not have to know about channel flags anymore.
Some of our flags have enums inside a mask. The new macro __APPEND_ENUM
is able to deal with that by comparing the flag's value against an exact
one under the mask. One needs to take care of eliminating the zero value
though, otherwise delimiters will not always be properly placed (e.g. if
some flags were dumped before and what remains is exactly zero). The
bits of the mask are cleared only upon exact matches.
The "flags" utility is useful but painful to maintain up to date. This
commit aims at providing a low-maintenance solution to keep flags up to
date, by proposing some macros that build a string from a set of flags
in a way that requires the least possible verbosity.
The idea will be to add an inline function dedicated to this just after
the flags declaration, and enumerate the flags one is interested in, and
that function will fill a string based on them.
Placing this inside the type files allows both haproxy and external tools
like "flags" to use it, but comes with a few constraints. First, the
files will be slightly less readable if these functions are huge, so they
need to stay as compact as possible. Second, the function will need
anprintf() and we don't want to include stdio.h in type files as it
proved to be particularly heavy and to cause definition headaches in
the past.
As such the file here only contains a macro enclosed in #ifdef EOF (that
is defined in stdio), and provides an alternate empty one when no stdio
is defined. This way it's the caller that has to include stdio first or
it won't get anything back, and in practice the locations relying on
this always have it.
The macro has to be used in 3 steps:
- prologue: dumps 0 and exits if the value is zero
- flags: the macro can be recursively called and it will push the
flag from bottom to top so that they appear in the same order as
today without requiring to be declared the other way around
- epilogue: dump remaining flags that were not identified
The macro was arranged so that a single character can be used with no
other argument to declare all flags at once. Example:
#define _(n, ...) __APPEND_FLAG(buf, len, del, flg, n, #n, __VA_ARGS__)
_(0);
_(X_FLAG1, _(X_FLAG2, _(X_FLAG3, _(X_FLAG4))));
_(~0);
#undef _
Existing files will have to be updated to rely on it, and more files
could come soon.
This is the ->finalize application callback which prepares the unidirectional STREAM
frames for h3 settings and wakeup the mux I/O handler to send them. As haproxy is
at the same time always waiting for the client request, this makes haproxy
call sendto() to send only about 20 bytes of stream data. Furthermore in case
of heavy loss, this give less chances to short h3 requests to succeed.
Drawback: as at this time the mux sends its streams by their IDs ascending order
the stream 0 is always embedded before the unidirectional stream 3 for h3 settings.
Nevertheless, as these settings may be lost and received after other h3 request
streams, this is permitted by the RFC.
Perhaps there is a better way to do. This will have to be checked with Amaury.
Must be backported to 2.6.
It is possible to speed up the handshake completion but only one time
by connection as mentionned in RFC 9002 "6.2.3. Speeding up Handshake Completion".
Add a flag to prevent this process to be run several times
(see https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9002#name-speeding-up-handshake-compl).
Must be backported to 2.6.
This removes all the hard-coded 8-bit and 256 entries to use a pair of
macros instead so that we can more easily experiment with larger table
sizes if needed.
There used to be one tid for tasklets and a thread_mask for tasks. Since
2.7, both tasks and tasklets now use a tid (albeit with a very slight
semantic difference for the negative value), to in order to limit code
duplication and to ease debugging it makes sense to move tid into the
common part. One limitation is that it will leave a hole in the structure,
but we now have the wake_date that is always present and can move there as
well to plug the hole.
This results in something overall pretty clean (and cleaner than before),
with the low-level stuff (state,tid,process,context) appearing first, then
the caller stuff (caller,wake_date,calls,debug) next, and finally the
type-specific stuff (rq/wq/expire/nice).
Instead of storing an index that's swapped at every call, let's use the
two pointers as a shifting history. Now we have a permanent "caller"
field that records the last caller, and an optional prev_caller in the
debug section enabled by DEBUG_TASK that keeps a copy of the previous
caller one. This way, not only it's much easier to follow what's
happening during debugging, but it saves 8 bytes in the struct task in
debug mode and still keeps it under 2 cache lines in nominal mode, and
this will finally be usable everywhere and later in profiling.
The caller_idx was also used as a hint that the entry was freed, in order
to detect wakeup-after-free. This was changed by setting caller to -1
instead and preserving its value in caller[1].
Finally, the operations were made atomic. That's not critical but since
it's used for debugging and race conditions represent a significant part
of the issues in multi-threaded mode, it seems wise to at least eliminate
some possible factors of faulty analysis.
appctx_wakeup() relies on task_wakeup(), but since it calls it from a
function, the calling place is always appctx_wakeup() itself, which is
not very useful.
Let's turn it to a macro so that we can log the location of the caller
instead. As an example, the cli_io_handler() which used to be seen as
this:
(gdb) p *appctx->t.debug.caller[0]
$10 = {
func = 0x9ffb78 <__func__.37996> "appctx_wakeup",
file = 0x9b336a "include/haproxy/applet.h",
line = 110,
what = 1 '\001',
arg8 = 0 '\000',
arg32 = 0
}
Now shows the more useful:
(gdb) p *appctx->t.debug.caller[0]
$6 = {
func = 0x9ffe80 <__func__.38641> "sc_app_chk_snd_applet",
file = 0xa00320 "src/stconn.c",
line = 996,
what = 6 '\006',
arg8 = 0 '\000',
arg32 = 0
}
This reduces the task struct by 8 bytes, reduces the code size a little
bit by simplifying the calling convention (one argument dropped), and
as a bonus provides the function name in the caller.
The memstats code currently defines its own file/function/line number,
type and extra pointer. We don't need to keep them separate and we can
easily replace them all with just a struct ha_caller. Note that the
extra pointer could be converted to a pool ID stored into arg8 or
arg32 and be dropped as well, but this would first require to define
IDs for pools (which we currently do not have).
The purpose of this structure is to assemble all constant parts of a
generic calling point for a specific event. These ones are created by
the compiler as a static const element outside of the code path, so
they cost nothing in terms of CPU, and a pointer to that descriptor
can be passed to the place that needs it. This is very similar to what
is being done for the mem_stat stuff.
This will be useful to simplify and improve DEBUG_TASK.
There are a few places where it's convenient to hash a pointer to compute
a statistics bucket. Here we're basically reusing the hash that was used
by memory profiling with a minor update that the multiplier was corrected
to be prime and stand by its promise to have equal numbers of 1 and 0,
and that 32-bit platforms won't lose range anymore.
A two-pointer variant was also added.
It was a mistake to put these two fields in the struct task. This
was added in 1.9 via commit 9efd7456e ("MEDIUM: tasks: collect per-task
CPU time and latency"). These fields are used solely by streams in
order to report the measurements via the lat_ns* and cpu_ns* sample
fetch functions when task profiling is enabled. For the rest of the
tasks, this is pure CPU waste when profiling is enabled, and memory
waste 100% of the time, as the point where these latencies and usages
are measured is in the profiling array.
Let's move the fields to the stream instead, and have process_stream()
retrieve the relevant info from the thread's context.
The struct task is now back to 120 bytes, i.e. almost two cache lines,
with 32 bit still available.
The profile entry that corresponds to the current task/tasklet being
profiled is now stored into the thread's context. This will allow it
to be accessed from the tasks themselves. This is needed for an upcoming
fix.
When task profiling is enabled, the scheduler can measure and report
the cumulated time spent in each task and their respective latencies. But
this was wrong for tasks with few wakeups as well as for self-waking ones,
because the call date needed to measure how long it takes to process the
task is retrieved in the task itself (->wake_date was turned to the call
date), and we could face two conditions:
- a new wakeup while the task is executing would reset the ->wake_date
field before returning and make abnormally low values being reported;
that was likely the case for taskrun_applet for self-waking applets;
- when the task dies, NULL is returned and the call date couldn't be
retrieved, so that CPU time was not being accounted for. This was
particularly visible with process_stream() which is usually called
only twice per request, and whose time was systematically halved.
The cleanest solution here is to keep in mind that the scheduler already
uses quite a bit of local context in th_ctx, and place the intermediary
values there so that they cannot vanish. The wake_date has to be reset
immediately once read, and only its copy is used along the function. Note
that this must be done both for tasks and tasklet, and that until recently
tasklets were also able to report wrong values due to their sole dependency
on TH_FL_TASK_PROFILING between tests.
One nice benefit for future improvements is that such information will now
be available from the task without having to be stored into the task itself
anymore.
Since the tasklet part was computed on wrapping 32-bit arithmetics and
the task one was on 64-bit, the values were now consistently moved to
32-bit as it's already largely sufficient (4s spent in a task is more
than twice what the watchdog would tolerate). Some further cleanups might
be necessary, but the patch aimed at staying minimal.
Task profiling output after 1 million HTTP request previously looked like
this:

This feature is essentially used for debugging so it has extremely limited
impact. However it's used quite a bit more in bug reports and it would be
desirable that at least 2.6 gets this fix backported. It depends on at least
these two previous patches which will then also have to be backported:
MINOR: task: permanently enable latency measurement on tasklets
CLEANUP: task: rename ->call_date to ->wake_date
This field is misnamed because its real and important content is the
date the task was woken up, not the date it was called. It temporarily
holds the call date during execution but this remains confusing. In
fact before the latency measurements were possible it was indeed a call
date. Thus is will now be called wake_date.
This change is necessary because a subsequent fix will require the
introduction of the real call date in the thread ctx.
When tasklet latency measurement was enabled in 2.4 with commit b2285de04
("MINOR: tasks: also compute the tasklet latency when DEBUG_TASK is set"),
the feature was conditionned on DEBUG_TASK because the field would add 8
bytes to the struct tasklet.
This approach was not a very good idea because the struct ends on an int
anyway thus it does finish with a 32-bit hole regardless of the presence
of this field. What is true however is that adding it turned a 64-byte
struct to 72-byte when caller debugging is enabled.
This patch revisits this with a minor change. Now only the lowest 32
bits of the call date are stored, so they always fit in the remaining
hole, and this allows to remove the dependency on DEBUG_TASK. With
debugging off, we're now seeing a 48-byte struct, and with debugging
on it's exactly 64 bytes, thus still exactly one cache line. 32 bits
allow a latency of 4 seconds on a tasklet, which already indicates a
completely dead process, so there's no point storing the upper bits at
all. And even in the event it would happen once in a while, the lost
upper bits do not really add any value to the debug reports. Also, now
one tasklet wakeup every 4 billion will not be sampled due to the test
on the value itself. Similarly we just don't care, it's statistics and
the measurements are not 9-digit accurate anyway.
There's a subtle (harmless) bug in task_instant_wakeup(). As it uses
some tasklet code instead of some task code, the debug part also acts
on the tasklet equivalent, and the call_date is only set when DEBUG_TASK
is set instead of inconditionally like with tasks. As such, without this
debugging macro, call dates are not updated for tasks woken this way.
There isn't any impact yet because this function was introduced in 2.6 to
solve certain classes of issues and is not used yet, and in the worst case
it would only affect the reported latency time.
This may be backported to 2.6 in case a future fix would depend on it but
currently will not fix existing code.
The tasklet's call date was not reset, so if profiling was enabled while
some tasklets were in the run queue, their initial random value could be
used to preload a bogus initial latency value into the task profiling bin.
Let's just zero the initial value.
This should be backported to 2.4 as it was brought with initial commit
b2285de04 ("MINOR: tasks: also compute the tasklet latency when DEBUG_TASK
is set"). The impact is very low though.
To work, quic_pin_cid_to_tid() must set cid[0] to a value with <target_id>
as <global.nbthread> modulo. For each integer n, (n - (n % m)) + d has always
d as modulo m (with d < m).
So, this statement seemed correct:
cid[0] = cid[0] - (cid[0] % global.nbthread) + target_tid;
except when n wraps or when another modulo is applied to the addition result.
Here, for 8bit modulo arithmetic, if m does not divides 256, this cannot
works for values which wraps when we increment them by d.
For instance n=255 m=3 and d=1 the formula result is 0 (should be d).
To fix this, we first limit c[0] to 255 - <target_id> to prevent c[0] from wrapping.
Thank you to @esb for having reported this issue in GH #1855.
Must be backported to 2.6
LibreSSL does not implement EVP_chacha20_poly1305() with EVP_CIPHER but
uses the EVP_AEAD API instead:
https://man.openbsd.org/EVP_AEAD_CTX_init
This patch disables this cipher for libreSSL for now.
When building HAProxy with USE_QUIC and libressl 3.6.0, the
ssl_sock_switchtx_cbk symbol is not found because libressl does not
implement the client_hello_cb.
A ssl_sock_switchtx_cbk version for the servername callback is available
but wasn't exported correctly.
This helper will be called for muxes that provide it and will be used
to let the mux provide extra information about the stream attached to
a stream descriptor. A line prefix is passed in argument so that the
mux is free to break long lines without breaking indent. No prefix
means no line breaks should be produced (e.g. for short dumps).
Some recent traces started to show confusing stream pointers ending with
0xe. The reason was that the stream's obj_type was almost unused in the
past and was stuffed in a hole in the structure. But now it's present in
all "show sess all" outputs and having to mentally match this value against
another one that's 0x17e lower is painful. The solution here is to move the
obj_type at the top, like in almost every other structure, but without
breaking the efficient layout.
This patch moves a few fields around and manages to both plug some holes
(16 bytes saved, 976 to 960) and avoid channels needlessly crossing cache
boundaries (res was spread over 3 lines vs 2 now).
Nothing else was changed. It would be desirable to backport this to 2.6
since it's where dumps are currently being processed the most.
As outlined in commit f7ebe584d7 ("BUILD: debug: Add braces to if
statement calling only CHECK_IF()"), the BUG_ON() family of macros
is incorrectly defined to be empty when debugging is disabled, and
that can lead to trouble. Make sure they always fall back to the
usual "do { } while (0)". This may be backported to 2.6 if needed,
though no such issue was met there to date.
This bug arrived with this commit:
"MINOR: quic: Add reusable cipher contexts for header protection"
haproxy could crash because of missing cipher contexts initializations for
the header protection and draft-v2 Initial secrets. This was due to the fact
that these initialization both for RX and TX secrets were done outside of
qc_new_isecs(). The role of this function is definitively to initialize these
cipher contexts in addition to the derived secrets. Indeed this function is called
by qc_new_conn() which initializes the connection but also by qc_conn_finalize()
which also calls qc_new_isecs() in case of a different QUIC version was negotiated
by the peers from the one used by the client for its first Initial packet.
This was reported by "v2" QUIC interop test with at least picoquic as client.
Must be backported to 2.6.
Shut the connect() warning of resolvers_finalize_config() when the
configuration was not emitted manually.
This shuts the warning for the "default" resolvers which is created
automatically for the httpclient.
Must be backported in 2.6.
It is only a real problem for agent-checks when there is no agent string to
send. The condition to disable TCP_QUICKACK was only based on the action
type following the connect one. But it is not always accurate. indeed, for
agent-checks, there is always a SEND action. But if there is no "agent-send"
string defined, nothing is sent. In this case, this adds 200ms of latency
with no reason.
To fix the bug, a flag is now used on the CONNECT action to instruct there
are data that should be sent after the connect. For health-checks, this flag
is set if the action following the connect is a SEND action. For
agent-checks, it is set if an "agent-send" string is defined.
This patch should fix the issue #1836. It must be backported as far as 2.2.
Replace ->rx.pqpkts quic_enc_level struct member MT_LIST by an LIST.
Same thing for ->list quic_rx_packet struct member MT_LIST.
Update the code consequently. This was a reminisence of the multithreading
support (several threads by connection).
Must be backported to 2.6
Some clients send CONNECTION_CLOSE frame without acknowledging the STREAM
data haproxy has sent. In this case, when closing the connection if
there were remaining data in QUIC stream buffers, they were not released.
Add a <closing> boolean option to qc_stream_desc_free() to force the
stream buffer memory releasing upon closing connection.
Thank you to Tristan for having reported such a memory leak issue in GH #1801.
Must be backported to 2.6.
In ticket #1805 an user is impacted by the limitation of size of the CLI
buffer when updating a ca-file.
This patch allows a user to append new certificates to a ca-file instead
of trying to put them all with "set ssl ca-file"
The implementation use a new function ssl_store_dup_cafile_entry() which
duplicates a cafile_entry and its X509_STORE.
ssl_store_load_ca_from_buf() was modified to take an apped parameter so
we could share the function for "set" and "add".
In order to be able to append new CA in a cafile_entry,
ssl_store_load_ca_from_buf() was reworked and a "append" parameter was
added.
The function is able to keep the previous X509_STORE which was already
present in the cafile_entry.
Implement quic_tls_rx_hp_ctx_init() and quic_tls_tx_hp_ctx_init() to initiliaze
such header protection cipher contexts for each RX and TX parts and for each
packet number spaces, only one time by connection.
Make qc_new_isecs() call these two functions to initialize the cipher contexts
of the Initial secrets. Same thing for ha_quic_set_encryption_secrets() to
initialize the cipher contexts of the subsequent derived secrets (ORTT, 1RTT,
Handshake).
Modify qc_do_rm_hp() and quic_apply_header_protection() to reuse these
cipher contexts.
Note that there is no need to modify the key update for the header protection.
The header protection secrets are never updated.
The CLI needs to reset the svcctx between commands, and there was nothing
done to handle this. Let's add appctx_reset_svcctx() to do that, it's the
closing equivalent of appctx_reserve_svcctx().
This will have to be backported to 2.6 as it will be used by a subsequent
patch to fix a bug.
As specified by RFC 7540, multiple cookie headers are merged in a single
entry before passing it to a HTTP/1.1 connection. This step is
implemented during headers parsing in h2 module.
Extract this code in the generic http_htx module. This will allow to
reuse it quickly for HTTP/3 implementation which has the same
requirement for cookie headers.
MUX notification on TX has been edited recently : it will be notified
only when sending its own data, and not for example on retransmission by
the quic-conn layer. This is subject of the patch :
b29a1dc2f4
BUG/MINOR: quic: do not notify MUX on frame retransmit
A new flag QUIC_FL_CONN_RETRANS_LOST_DATA has been introduced to
differentiate qc_send_app_pkts invocation by MUX and directly by the
quic-conn layer in quic_conn_app_io_cb(). However, this is a first
problem as internal quic-conn layer usage is not limited to
retransmission. For example for NEW_CONNECTION_ID emission.
Another problem much important is that send functions are also called
through quic_conn_io_cb() which has not been protected from MUX
notification. This could probably result in crash when trying to notify
the MUX.
To fix both problems, quic-conn flagging has been inverted : when used
by the MUX, quic-conn is flagged with QUIC_FL_CONN_TX_MUX_CONTEXT. To
improve the API, MUX must now used qc_send_mux which ensure the flag is
set. qc_send_app_pkts is now static and can only be used by the
quic-conn layer.
This must be backported wherever the previously mentionned patch is.
On STREAM emission, quic-conn notifies MUX through a callback named
qcc_streams_sent_done(). This also happens on retransmission : in this
case offset are examined and notification is ignored if already seen.
However, this behavior has slightly changed since
e53b489826
BUG/MEDIUM: mux-quic: fix server chunked encoding response
Indeed, if offset diff is NULL, frame is now not ignored. This is to
support FIN notification with a final empty STREAM frame. A side-effect
of this is that if the last stream frame is retransmitted, it won't be
ignored in qcc_streams_sent_done().
In most cases, this side-effect is harmless as qcs instance will soon be
freed after being closed. But if qcs is still alive, this will cause a
BUG_ON crash as it is considered as locally closed.
This bug depends on delay condition and seems to be extremely rare. But
it might be the reason for a crash seen on interop with s2n client on
http3 testcase :

To reproduce it locally, code was artificially patched to produce
retransmission and avoid qcs liberation.
In order to fix this and avoid future class of similar problem, the best
way is to not call qcc_streams_sent_done() to notify MUX for
retranmission. To implement this, we test if any of
QUIC_FL_CONN_RETRANS_OLD_DATA or the new flag
QUIC_FL_CONN_RETRANS_LOST_DATA is set. A new wrapper
qc_send_app_retransmit() has been added to set the new flag as a
complement to already existing qc_send_app_probing().
This must be backported up to 2.6.
Adjust qc_send_app_pkts function : remove <old_data> arg and provide a
new wrapper function qc_send_app_probing() which should be used instead
when probing with old data.
This simplifies the interface of the default function, most notably for
the MUX which does not interfer with retransmission.
QUIC_FL_CONN_RETRANS_OLD_DATA flag is set/unset directly in the wrapper
qc_send_app_probing().
At the same time, function documentation has been updated to clarified
arguments and return values.
This commit will be useful for the next patch to differentiate MUX and
retransmission send context. As a consequence, the current patch should
be backported wherever the next one will be.
Emit STREAM_LIMIT_ERROR if a client tries to open an unidirectional
stream with an ID greater than the value specified by our flow-control
limit. The code is similar to the bidirectional stream opening.
MAX_STREAMS_UNI emission is not implement for the moment and is left as
a TODO. This should not be too urgent for the moment : in HTTP/3, a
client has only a limited use for unidirectional streams (H3 control
stream + 2 QPACK streams). This is covered by the value provided by
haproxy in transport parameters.
This patch has been tagged with BUG as it should have prevented last
crash reported on github issue #1808 when opening a new unidirectional
streams with an invalid ID. However, it is probably not the main cause
of the bug contrary to the patch
commit 11a6f4007b
BUG/MINOR: quic: Wrong status returned by qc_pkt_decrypt()
This must be backported up to 2.6.
As specified by RFC 9204, encoder and decoder streams must not be
closed. If the peer behaves incorrectly and closes one of them, emit a
H3_CLOSED_CRITICAL_STREAM connection error.
To implement this, QPACK stream decoding API has been slightly adjusted.
Firstly, fin parameter is passed to notify about FIN STREAM bit.
Secondly, qcs instance is passed via unused void* context. This allows
to use qcc_emit_cc_app() function to report a CONNECTION_CLOSE error.
This function is responsible for all calls to pool_alloc(trash), whose
total size can be huge. As such it's quite a pain that it doesn't provide
more hints about its users. However, since the function is tiny, it fully
makes sense to inline it, the code is less than 0.1% larger with this.
This way we can now detect where the callers are via "show profiling",
e.g.:
0 1953671 0 32071463136| 0x59960f main+0x10676f p_free(-16416) [pool=trash]
0 1 0 16416| 0x59960f main+0x10676f p_free(-16416) [pool=trash]

1 0 16416 0| 0x576a5d http_reply_to_htx+0x1fd/0x920 p_alloc(16416) [pool=trash]
Storing the pointer to the pool along with the stats is quite useful as
it allows to report the name. That's what we're doing here. We could
store it in place of another field but that's not convenient as it would
require to change all functions that manipulate counters. Thus here we
store one extra field, as well as some padding because the struct turns
56 bytes long, thus better go to 64 directly. Example of output from
"show profiling memory":
2 0 48 0| 0x4bfb2c ha_quic_set_encryption_secrets+0xcc/0xb5e p_alloc(24) [pool=quic_tls_iv]

Pools are being used so well that it becomes difficult to profile their
usage via the regular memory profiling. Let's add new entries for pools
there, named "p_alloc" and "p_free" that correspond to pool_alloc() and
pool_free(). Ideally it would be nice to only report those that fail
cache lookups but that's complicated, particularly on the free() path
since free lists are released in clusters to the shared pools.
It's worth noting that the alloc_tot/free_tot fields can easily be
determined by multiplying alloc_calls/free_calls by the pool's size, and
could be better used to store a pointer to the pool itself. However it
would require significant changes down the code that sorts output.
If this were to cause a measurable slowdown, an alternate approach could
consist in using a different value of USE_MEMORY_PROFILING to enable pools
profiling. Also, this profiler doesn't depend on intercepting regular malloc
functions, so we could also imagine enabling it alone or the other one alone
or both.
Tests show that the CPU overhead on QUIC (which is already an extremely
intensive user of pools) jumps from ~7% to ~10%. This is quite acceptable
in most deployments.
Right now it's not possible to feed memory profiling info from outside
activity.c, so let's export the function and move the enum and struct
to the include file.
This mmaps a file which will serve as the backing-store for the ring's
contents. The idea is to provide a way to retrieve sensitive information
(last logs, debugging traces) even after the process stops and even after
a possible crash. Right now this was possible by connecting to the CLI
and dumping the contents of the ring live, but this is not handy and
consumes quite a bit of resources before it is needed.
With a backing file, the ring is effectively RAM-mapped file, so that
contents stored there are the same as those found in the file (the OS
doesn't guarantee immediate sync but if the process dies it will be OK).
Note that doing that on a filesystem backed by a physical device is a
bad idea, as it will induce slowdowns at high loads. It's really
important that the device is RAM-based.
Also, this may have security implications: if the file is corrupted by
another process, the storage area could be corrupted, causing haproxy
to crash or to overwrite its own memory. As such this should only be
used for debugging.
Instead of allocating two parts, one for the ring struct itself and
one for the storage area, ring_make_from_area() will arrange the two
inside the same memory area, with the storage starting immediately
after the struct. This will allow to store a complete ring state in
shared memory areas for example.
This commit was not complete:
"BUG/MEDIUM: quic: Possible use of uninitialized <odcid>
variable in qc_lstnr_params_init()"
<token_odcid> should have been directly passed to qc_lstnr_params_init()
without dereferencing it to prevent haproxy to have new chances to crash!
Must be backported to 2.6.
When receiving a token into a client Initial packet without a cluster secret defined
by configuration, the <odcid> variable used to parse the ODCID from the token
could be used without having been initialized. Such a packet must be dropped. So
the sufficient part of this patch is this check:
+ }
+ else if (!global.cluster_secret && token_len) {
+ /* Impossible case: a token was received without configured
+ * cluster secret.
+ */
+ TRACE_PROTO("Packet dropped", QUIC_EV_CONN_LPKT,
+ NULL, NULL, NULL, qv);
+ goto drop;
}
Take the opportunity of this patch to rework and make it more readable this part
of code where such a packet must be dropped removing the <check_token> variable.
When an ODCID is parsed from a token, new <token_odcid> new pointer variable
is set to the address of the parsed ODCID. This way, is not set but used it will
make crash haproxy. This was not always the case with an uninitialized local
variable.
Adapt the API to used such a pointer variable: <token> boolean variable is removed
from qc_lstnr_params_init() prototype.
This must be backported to 2.6.
Add new traces to help debugging on QUIC MUX. Most notable, the
following functions are now traced :
* qcc_emit_cc
* qcs_free
* qcs_consume
* qcc_decode_qcs
* qcc_emit_cc_app
* qcc_install_app_ops
* qcc_release_remote_stream
* qcc_streams_sent_done
* qc_init
This lock was there be able to handle the RX packets for a connetion
from several threads. This is no more needed since a QUIC connection
is always handled by the same thread.
May be backported to 2.6
Add a least as much as possible TRACE_ENTER() and TRACE_LEAVE() calls
to any function. Note that some functions do not have any access to the
a quic_conn argument when receiving or parsing datagram at very low level.
While testing the fix for the previous issue related to reloads with
hard_stop_after, I've met another one which could spuriously produce:
FATAL: bug condition "t->tid >= 0 && t->tid != tid" matched at include/haproxy/task.h:266
In 2.3-dev2, we've added more consistency checks for a number of bug-
inducing programming errors related to the tasks, via commit e5d79bccc
("MINOR: tasks/debug: add a few BUG_ON() to detect use of wrong timer
queue"), and this check comes from there.
The problem that happens here is that when hard-stop-after is set, we
can abort the current thread even if there are still ongoing checks
(or connections in fact). In this case some tasks are present in a
thread's wait queue and are thus bound exclusively to this thread.
During deinit(), the collect and cleanup of all memory areas also
stops servers and kills their check tasks. And calling task_destroy()
does in turn call task_unlink_wq()... except that it's called from
thread 0 which doesn't match the initially planned thread number.
Several approaches are possible. One of them would consist in letting
threads perform their own cleanup (tasks, pools, FDs, etc). This would
possibly be even faster since done in parallel, but some corner cases
might be way more complicated (e.g. who will kill a check's task, or
what to do with a task found in a local wait queue or run queue, and
what about other consistency checks this could violate?).
Thus for now this patches takes an easier and more conservative
approach consisting in admitting that when the process is stopping,
this rule is not necessarily valid, and to let thread 0 collect all
other threads' garbage.
As such this patch can be backpoted to 2.4.
On first prototype version of QUIC, emission was multithreaded. To
support this, a custom thread-safe ring-buffer has been implemented with
qring/cbuf.
Now the thread model has been adjusted : a quic-conn is always used on
the same thread and emission is not multi-threaded. Thus, qring/cbuf
usage can be replace by a standard struct buffer.
The code has been simplified even more as for now buffer is always
drained after a prepare/send invocation. This is the case since a
datagram is always considered as sent even on sendto() error. BUG_ON
statements guard are here to ensure that this model is always valid.
Thus, code to handle data wrapping and consume too small contiguous
space with a 0-length datagram is removed.
Right now the free() call is not intercepted since all this is done
using macros and that would break a lot of stuff. Instead a __free()
macro was provided but never used. In addition it used to only report
a zero size, which is not very convenient.
With this patch comes a better solution. Instead it provides a new
will_free() macro that can be prepended before a call to free(). It
only keeps the counters up to date, and also supports being passed a
size. The pool_free_area() command now uses it, which finally allows
the stats to look correct:
pool-os.h:38 MALLOC size: 5802127832 calls: 3868044 size/call: 1500
pool-os.h:47 FREE size: 5800041576 calls: 3867444 size/call: 1499
The few other places directly calling free() could now be instrumented to
use this and to pass the correct sizeof() when known.
The calling function name is now stored in the structure, and it's
reported when the "all" argument is passed. The first column is
significantly enlarged because some names are really wide :-(
Not specifying the alignment will let the linker choose it, and it turns
out that it will not necessarily be the same size as the one chosen for
struct mem_stats, as can be seen if any new fields are added there. Let's
enforce an alignment to void* both for the section and for the structure.
MAX_THREADS was not changed when setting MAX_TGROUPS, which still limits
some possibilities. Let's preset it to 4 * LONGBITS when MAX_TGROUPS is
larger than 1, or LONGBITS when it's set to 1. This means that the new
default value is 256 threads.
The rationale behind this is that the main use of thread groups is
mostly to address NUMA issues and that we don't necessarily need large
thread counts when using many groups, and 256 threads is already plenty
even on quite large systems.
For now it's important not to go too far because some internal structs
are arrays of MAX_THREADS entries, for example accept_queue_ring, which
is around 8kB per thread. Such structures will need to become dynamic
before defaulting to large thread counts (at 4096 threads max the
accept queues would require 32 MB RAM alone).
qc_snd_buf returned a size_t which means that it was never negative
despite its documentation. Thus the caller who checked for this was
never informed of a sendto error.
Clean this by changing the return value of qc_snd_buf() to an integer.
A 0 is returned on success. Every other values are considered as an
error.
This commit should be backported up to 2.6. Note that to not cause
malfunctions, it must be backported after the previous patch :
906b058954
MINOR: quic: explicitely ignore sendto error
This is to ensure that a sendto error does not cause send to be
interrupted which may cause a stalled transfer without a proper retry
mechanism.
The impact of this bug seems null as caller explicitely ignores sendto
error. However this part of code seems to be subject to strange issues
and it may fix them in part. It may be of interest for github issue #1808.
Implement http-request timeout for QUIC MUX. It is used when the
connection is opened and is triggered if no HTTP request is received in
time. By HTTP request we mean at least a QUIC stream with a full header
section. Then qcs instance is attached to a sedesc and upper layer is
then responsible to wait for the rest of the request.
This timeout is also used when new QUIC streams are opened during the
connection lifetime to wait for full HTTP request on them. As it's
possible to demux multiple streams in parallel with QUIC, each waiting
stream is registered in a list <opening_list> stored in qcc with <start>
as timestamp in qcs for the stream opening. Once a qcs is attached to a
sedesc, it is removed from <opening_list>. When refreshing MUX timeout,
if <opening_list> is not empty, the first waiting stream is used to set
MUX timeout.
This is efficient as streams are stored in the list in their creation
order so CPU usage is minimal. Also, the size of the list is
automatically restricted by flow control limitation so it should not
grow too much.
Streams are insert in <opening_list> by application protocol layer. This
is because only application protocol can differentiate streams for HTTP
messaging from internal usage. A function qcs_wait_http_req() has been
added to register a request stream by app layer. QUIC MUX can then
remove it from the list in qc_attach_sc().
As a side-note, it was necessary to implement attach qcc_app_ops
callback on hq-interop module to be able to insert a stream in waiting
list. Without this, a BUG_ON statement would be triggered when trying to
remove the stream on sedesc attach. This is to ensure that every
requests streams are registered for http-request timeout.
MUX timeout is explicitely refreshed on MAX_STREAM_DATA and STOP_SENDING
frame parsing to schedule http-request timeout if a new stream has been
instantiated. It was already done on STREAM parsing due to a previous
patch.
Store the current step of HTTP message in h3s stream. This reports if we
are in the parsing of headers, content or trailers section. A new enum
h3s_st_req is defined for this.
This field is stored in h3s struct but only used for request stream. It
is left undefined for other streams (control or QPACK streams).
h3_is_frame_valid() has been extended to take into account this state
information. A connection error H3_FRAME_UNEXPECTED is reported if an
invalid frame according to the current state is received; for example a
DATA frame at the beginning of a stream.
The decrement was missing in quic_pktns_tx_pkts_release() called each time a
packet number space is discarded. This is not sure this bug could have an impact
during handshakes. This counter is used to cancel the timer used both for packet
detection and PTO, setting its value to null. So there could be retransmissions
or probing which could be triggered for nothing.
Must be backported to 2.6.
Complete QUIC MUX timeout refresh function by using http-keep-alive
timeout. It is used when the connection is idle after having handle at
least one request.
To implement this a new member <idle_start> has been defined in qcc
structure. This is used as timestamp for when the connection became idle
and is used as base time for http keep-alive timeout
Add a new qcc member named <nb_hreq>. Its purpose is close to <nb_sc>
which represents the number of attached stream connectors. Both are
incremented inside qc_attach_sc().
The difference is on the decrement operation. While <nb_cs> is
decremented on sedesc detach callback, <nb_hreq> is decremented when the
qcs is locally closed.
In most cases, <nb_hreq> will be decremented before <nb_cs>. However, it
will be the reverse if a stream must be kept alive after detach callback.
The main purpose of this field is to implement http-keep-alive timeout.
Both <nb_sc> and <nb_hreq> must be null to activate the http-keep-alive
timeout.
Store a reference to proxy in the qcc structure. This will be useful to
access to proxy members outside of qcc_init().
Most notably, this change is required to implement timeout refreshing by
using the various timeouts configured at the proxy level.
Timeout in QUIC MUX has evolved from the simple first implementation. At
the beginning, a connection was considered dead unless bidirectional
streams were opened. This was abstracted through an app callback
is_active().
Now this paradigm has been reversed and a connection is considered alive
by default, unless an error has been reported or a timeout has already
been fired. The callback is_active() is thus not used anymore and can be
safely removed to simplify qcc_is_dead().
This commit should be backported to 2.6.
This function is designed to enlarge the scope of a lookup performed
by a caller via ebmb_lookup_longest() that was not satisfied with the
result. It will first visit next duplicates, and if none are found,
it will go up in the tree to visit similar keys with shorter prefixes
and will return them if they match. We only use the starting point's
value to perform the comparison since it was expected to be valid for
the looked up key, hence it has all bits in common with its own length.
The algorithm is a bit complex because when going up we may visit nodes
that are located beneath the level we just come from. However it is
guaranteed that keys having a shorter prefix will be present above the
current location, though they may be attached to the left branch of a
cover node, so we just visit all nodes as long as their prefix is too
large, possibly go down along the left branch on cover nodes, and stop
when either there's a match, or there's a non-matching prefix anymore.
The following tricky case now works fine and properly finds 10.0.0.0/7
when looking up 11.0.0.1 from tree version 1 though both belong to
different sub-trees:
prepare map #1
add map @1 #1 10.0.0.0/7 10.0.0.0/7
add map @1 #1 10.0.0.0/7 10.0.0.0/7
commit map @1 #1
prepare map #1
add map @2 #1 11.0.0.0/8 11.0.0.0/8

add map @2 #1 11.0.0.0/8 11.0.0.0/8
It's convenient for debugging IP trees. However we're not dumping the
full keys, for the sake of simplicity, only the 4 first bytes are dumped
as a u32 hex value. In practice this is sufficient for debugging. As a
reminder since it seems difficult to recover the command each time it's
needed, the output is converted to an image using dot from Graphviz:
dot -o a.png -Tpng dump.txt
The plock code hasn't been been updated since 2017 and didn't benefit
from the exponential back-off improvements that were added in 2018.
Simply updating the file shows a massive performance gain on large
thread count (>=48) with dequeuing going from 113k RPS to 300k RPS and
round robin from 229k RPS to 1020k RPS. It was about time to update.
In addition, some recent improvements to the code will be useful with
thread groups.
An interesting improvement concerns EPYC CPUs. This one alone increased
fairness and was sufficient to avoid crashes in process_srv_queue() there,
when hammering two servers with maxconn 200 under 1k connections.
As it could be interesting to be able to choose the QUIC control congestion
algorithm to be used by listener, add "quic-cc-algo" new keyword to do so.
Update the documentation consequently.
Must be backported to 2.6.
Cubic is the congestion control algorithm used by default by the Linux kernel
since 2.6.15 version. This algorithm is supposed to achieve good scalability and
fairness between flows using the same network path, it should also be used by QUIC
by default. This patch implements this algorithm and select it as default algorithm
for the congestion control.
Must be backported to 2.6.
Ease the integration of new congestion control algorithm to come.
Move the congestion controller state to a private array of uint32_t
to stop using a union. We do not want to continue using such long
paths cc->algo_state.<algo>.<var> to modify the internal state variable
for each algorithm.
Must be backported to 2.6
Since the API is still a bit young, let's make sure nobody tries to
assign and FD to a group not strictly 1..MAX_TGROUPS as that would
indicate a bug.
Note: some of these might be relaxed to BUG_ON_HOT() in the future
When a new fd is inserted in the fdtab array, its state is initialized. The
"newstate" variable is used to compute the right state (0 by default, but
FD_ET_POSSIBLE flag is set if edge-triggered is supported for the fd).
However, this variable is never used and the fd state is always set to 0.
Now, the fd state is initialized with "newstate" variable.
This bug was introduced by commit ddedc1662 ("MEDIUM: fd: make
fd_insert/fd_delete atomically update fd.tgid"). No backport needed.
This function was added by commit 84ebfabf7 ("MINOR: tools: add
statistical_prng_range() to get a random number over a range") but it
contains a bug on the range, since mul32hi() covers the whole input
range, we must pass it range-1. For now it didn't have any impact, but
if used to find an array's index it will cause trouble.
This should be backported to 2.4.
The first approach in commit 288dc1d8e ("BUG/MEDIUM: tools: avoid calling
dlsym() in static builds") relied on dlopen() but on certain configs (at
least gcc-4.8+ld-2.27+glibc-2.17) it used to catch situations where it
ought not fail.
Let's have a second try on this using dladdr() instead. The variable was
renamed "build_is_static" as it's exactly what's being detected there.
We could even take it for reporting in -vv though that doesn't seem very
useful. At least the variable was made global to ease inspection via the
debugger, or in case it's useful later.
Now it properly detects a static build even with gcc-4.4+glibc-2.11.1 and
doesn't crash anymore.
This will allows nbtgroups > 1 to be declared in the config without
recompiling. The theoretical limit is 64, though we'd rather not push
it too far for now as some structures might be enlarged to be indexed
per group. Let's start with 16 groups max, allowing to experiment with
dual-socket machines suffering from up to 8 loosely coupled L3 caches.
It's a good start and doesn't engage us too far.
Since these are not used anymore, let's now remove them. Given the
number of places where we're using ti->ldit_bit, maybe an equivalent
might be useful though.
At boot the pollers are allocated for each thread and they need to
reprogram updates for all FDs they will manage. This code is not
trivial, especially when trying to respect thread groups, so we'd
rather avoid duplicating it.
Let's centralize this into fd.c with this function. It avoids closed
FDs, those whose thread mask doesn't match the requested one or whose
thread group doesn't match the requested one, and performs the update
if required under thread-group protection.
These functions need to set/reset the FD's tgid but when they're called
there may still be wakeups on other threads that discover late updates
and have to touch the tgid at the same time. As such, it is not possible
to just read/write the tgid there. It must only be done using operations
that are compatible with what other threads may be doing.
As we're using inc/dec on the refcount, it's safe to AND the area to zero
the lower part when resetting the value. However, in order to set the
value, there's no other choice but fd_claim_tgid() which will assign it
only if possible (via a CAS). This is convenient in the end because it
protects the FD's masks from being modified by late threads, so while
we hold this refcount we can safely reset the thread_mask and a few other
elements. A debug test for non-null masks was added to fd_insert() as it
must not be possible to face this situation thanks to the protection
offered by the tgid.
With the change that was started on other masks, the thread mask was
still not fully converted, sometimes being used as a global mask and
sometimes as a local one. This finishes the code modifications so that
the mask is always considered as a group-local mask. This doesn't
change anything as long as there's a single group, but is necessary
for groups 2 and above since it's used against running_mask and so on.
It's an AND so it destroys information and due to this there's a call
place where we have to perform two reads to know the previous value
then to change it. With a fetch-and-and instead, in a single operation
we can know if the bit was previously present, which is more efficient.
From now on, the FD's running_mask only refers to local thread IDs. However,
there remains a limitation, in updt_fd_polling(), we temporarily have to
check and set shared FDs against .thread_mask, which still contains global
ones. As such, nbtgroups > 1 may break (but this is not yet supported without
special build options).
From now on, the FD's update_mask only refers to local thread IDs. However,
there remains a limitation, in updt_fd_polling(), we temporarily have to
check and set shared FDs against .thread_mask, which still contains global
ones. As such, nbtgroups > 1 may break (but this is not yet supported without
special build options).
The running mask is only valid if the tgid is the expected one. This
function takes a reference on the tgid before reading the running mask,
so that both are checked at once. It returns either the mask or zero if
the tgid differs, thus providing a simple way for a caller to check if
it still holds the FD.
The FD's tgid is refcounted and must be atomically manipulated. Function
fd_grab_tgid() will increase the refcount but only if the tgid matches the
one in argument (likely the current one). fd_claim_tgid() will be used to
self-assign the tgid after waiting for its refcount to reach zero.
fd_drop_tgid() will be used to drop a temporarily held tgid. All of these
are needed to prevent an FD from being reassigned to another group, either
when inspecting/modifying the running_mask, or when checking for updates,
in order to be certain that the mask being seen corresponds to the desired
group. Note that once at least one bit is set in the running mask of an
active FD, it cannot be closed, thus not migrated, thus the reference does
not need to be held long.
The file descriptors will need to know the thread group ID in addition
to the mask. This extends fd_insert() to take the tgid, and will store
it into the FD.
In the FD, the tgid is stored as a combination of tgid on the lower 16
bits and a refcount on the higher 16 bits. This allows to know when it's
really possible to trust the tgid and the running mask. If a refcount is
higher than 1 it indeed indicates another thread else might be in the
process of updating these values.
Since a closed FD must necessarily have a zero refcount, a test was
added to fd_insert() to make sure that it is the case.
It's a bit ugly to see that half of the callers of fd_insert() have to
apply all_threads_mask themselves to the bit field they're passing,
because usually it comes from a listener that may have other bits set.
Let's make the function apply the mask itself.
The update-list needs to be per-group because its inspection is based
on a mask and we need to be certain when scanning it if a mask is for
the same thread or another one. Once per-group there's no doubt about
it, even if the FD's polling changes, the entry remains valid. It will
be needed to check the tgid though.
Note that a soft-stop or pause/resume might not necessarily work here
with tgroups>1, because the operation might be delivered to a thread
that doesn't belong to the group and whoe update mask will not reflect
one that is interesting here. We can't do better at this stage.
This one is only used as a hint to improve scheduling latency, so there
is no more point in keeping it global since each thread group handles
its own run q
Their migration was postponed for convenience only but now's time for
having the shared wait queues per thread group and not just per process,
otherwise the WQ lock uses a huge amount of CPU alone.
Since commit d2494e048 ("BUG/MEDIUM: peers/config: properly set the
thread mask") there must not remain any single case of a receiver that
is bound nowhere, so there's no need anymore for thread_mask().
We're adding a test in fd_insert() to make sure this doesn't happen by
accident though, but the function was removed and its rare uses were
replaced with the original value of the bind_thread msak.
The principle remains the same, but instead of having a single process
and ignoring extra ones, now we set the affinity masks for the respective
threads of all groups.
The doc was updated with a few extra examples.
Since we have to use masks to verify owners/waiters, we have no other
option but to have them per group. This definitely inflates the size
of the locks, but this is only used for extreme debugging anyway so
that's not dramatic.
Thus as of now, all masks in the lock stats are local bit masks, derived
from ti->ltid_bit. Since at boot ltid_bit might not be set, we just take
care of this situation (since some structs are initialized under look
during boot), and use bit 0 from group 0 only.
They were initially made to deal with both the cache and the update list
but there's no cache anymore and keeping them for the update list adds a
lot of obfuscation that is really not desired. Let's get rid of them now.
Their purpose was simply to get a pointer to fdtab[fd].update.{,next,prev}
in order to perform atomic tests and modifications. The offset passed in
argument to the functions (fd_add_to_fd_list() and fd_rm_from_fd_list())
was the offset of the ->update field in fdtab, and as it's not used anymore
it was removed. This also removes a number of casts, though those used by
the atomic ops have to remain since only scalars are supported.
The "ctx" and "st2" parts in the appctx were marked for removal in 2.7
and were emulated using memcpy/memset etc for possible external code.
Let's remove this now.
Adjust qcc_emit_cc_app() to allow the delay of emission of a
CONNECTION_CLOSE. This will only set the error code but the quic-conn
layer is not flagged for immediate close. The quic-conn will be
responsible to shut the connection when deemed suitable.
This change will allow to implement application graceful shutdown, such
as HTTP/3 with GOAWAY emission. This will allow to emit closing frames
on MUX release. Once all work is done at the lower layer, the quic-conn
should emit a CONNECTION_CLOSE with the registered error code.
Define a new structure quic_err to abstract a QUIC error type. This
allows to easily differentiate a transport and an application error
code. This simplifies error transmission from QUIC MUX and H3 layers.
This new type is defined in quic_frame module. It is used to replace
<err_code> field in <quic_conn>. QUIC_FL_CONN_APP_ALERT flag is removed
as it is now useless.
Utility functions are defined to be able to quickly instantiate
transport, tls and application errors.
quic_frame-t.h and xprt_quic-t.h include themselves mutually. This may
cause some troubles later.
In fact, xprt_quic does not need to include quic_frame so remove this.
And as quic_frame is a generic source file which is included in multiple
places, it is useful to also remove the xprt_quic include in it. Use
forward declaration for this.
Implement support for STOP_SENDING frame parsing. The stream is resetted
as specified by RFC 9000. This will automatically interrupt all future
send operation in qc_send(). A RESET_STREAM will be sent with the code
extracted from the original STOP_SENDING frame.
Implement functions to be able to reset a stream via RESET_STREAM.
If needed, a qcs instance is flagged with QC_SF_TO_RESET to schedule a
stream reset. This will interrupt all future send operations.
On stream emission, if a stream is flagged with QC_SF_TO_RESET, a
RESET_STREAM frame is generated and emitted to the transport layer. If
this operation succeeds, the stream is locally closed. If upper layer is
instantiated, error flag is set on it.
Implement a basic state machine to represent stream lifecycle. By
default a stream is idle. It is marked as open when sending or receiving
the first data on a stream.
Bidirectional streams has two states to represent the closing on both
receive and send channels. This distinction does not exists for
unidirectional streams which passed automatically from open to close
state.
This patch is mostly internal and has a limited visible impact. Some
behaviors are slightly updated :
* closed streams are garbage collected at the start of io handler
* send operation is interrupted if a stream is close locally
Outside of this, there is no functional change. However, some additional
BUG_ON guards are implemented to ensure that we do not conduct invalid
operation on a stream. This should strengthen the code safety. Also,
stream states are displayed on trace which should help debugging.
Rename both qcc_open_stream_local/remote() functions to
qcc_init_stream_local/remote(). This change is purely cosmetic. It will
reduces the ambiguity with the soon to be implemented OPEN states for
QCS instances.
In 2.6, 8a0fd3a36 ("BUILD: debug: work around gcc-12 excessive
-Warray-bounds warnings") disabled some warnings that were reported
around the the BUG() statement. But the -Wnull-dereference warning
isn't known from gcc-5, it only arrived in gcc-6, hence makes gcc-5
complain loudly that it doesn't know this directive. Let's just
condition this one to gcc-6.
http_is_default_port() can be used to test if a port is a default HTTP/HTTPS
port. A scheme may be specified. In this case, it is used to detect defaults
ports, 80 for "http://" and 443 for "https://". Otherwise, with no scheme, both
are considered as default ports.
http_get_host_port() function can be used to get the port part of a host. It
will be used to get the port of an uri authority or a host header
value. This function only look for a port starting from the end of the
host. It is the caller responsibility to call it with a valid host value. An
indirect string is returned.
Rename QC_SF_FIN_RECV to the more generic name QC_SF_SIZE_KNOWN. This
better align with the QUIC RFC 9000 which uses the "Size Known" state
definition. This change is purely cosmetic.
Review the whole API used to access/instantiate qcs.
A public function qcc_open_stream_local() is available to the
application protocol layer. It allows to easily opening a local stream.
The ID is automatically attributed to the next one available.
For remote streams, qcc_open_stream_remote() has been implemented. It
will automatically take care of allocating streams in a linear way
according to the ID. This function is called via qcc_get_qcs() which can
be used for each qcc_recv*() operations. For the moment, it is only used
for STREAM frames via qcc_recv(), but soon it will be implemented for
other frames types which can also be used to open a new stream.
qcs_new() and qcs_free() has been restricted to the MUX QUIC only as
they are now reserved for internal usage.
This change is a pure refactoring and should not have any noticeable
impact. It clarifies the developer intent and help to ensure that a
stream is not automatically opened when not desired.
<qcc.cl_bidi_r> is used to implement STREAM ID flow control enforcement.
Move it with all fields related to this operation and separated from MAX
STREAM DATA calcul.
This patch adds two BUG_ON on fd_insert() into the fdtab checking
if the fd has been correctly re-initialized into the fdtab
before a new insert.
It will raise a BUG if we try to insert the same fd multiple times
without an intermediate fd_delete().
First one checks that the owner for this fd in fdtab was reset to NULL.
Second one checks that the state flags for this fd in fdtab was reset
to 0.
This patch could be backported on version >= 2.4
This flag is not needed anymore as we're already marking the waiting
threads as harmless, thus the thread's bit is already covered by this
information. The variable was unexported.
The harmless status is not re-entrant, so sometimes for signal handling
it can be useful to know if we're already harmless or not. Let's add a
function doing that, and make the debugger use it instead of manipulating
the harmless mask.
thread_isolate() and thread_isolate_full() were relying on a set of thread
masks for all threads in different states (rdv, harmless, idle). This cannot
work anymore when the number of threads increases beyond LONGBITS so we need
to change the mechanism.
What is done here is to have a counter of requesters and the number of the
current isolated thread. Threads which want to isolate themselves increment
the request counter and wait for all threads to be marked harmless (or idle)
by scanning all groups and watching the respective masks. This is possible
because threads cannot escape once they discover this counter, unless they
also want to isolate and possibly pass first. Once all threads are harmless,
the requesting thread tries to self-assign the isolated thread number, and
if it fails it loops back to checking all threads. If it wins it's guaranted
to be alone, and can drop its harmless bit, so that other competing threads
go back to the loop waiting for all threads to be harmless. The benefit of
proceeding this way is that there's very little write contention on the
thread number (none during work), hence no cache line moves between caches,
thus frozen threads do not slow down the isolated one.
Once it's done, the isolated thread resets the thread number (hence lets
another thread take the place) and decrements the requester count, thus
possibly releasing all harmless threads.
With this change there's no more need for any global mask to synchronize
any thread, and we only need to loop over a number of groups to check
64 threads at a time per iteration. As such, tinfo's threads_want_rdv
could be dropped.
This was tested with 64 threads spread into 2 groups, running 64 tasks
(from the debug dev command), 20 "show sess" (thread_isolate()), 20
"add server blah/blah" (thread_isolate()), and 20 "del server blah/blah"
(thread_isolate_full()). The load remained very low (limited by external
socat forks) and no stuck nor starved thread was found.
Stopping threads need a mask to figure who's still there without scanning
everything in the poll loop. This means this will have to be per-group.
And we also need to have a global stopping groups mask to know what groups
were already signaled. This is used both to figure what thread is the first
one to catch the event, and which one is the first one to detect the end of
the last job. The logic isn't changed, though a loop is required in the
slow path to make sure all threads are aware of the end.
Note that for now the soft-stop still takes time for group IDs > 1 as the
poller is not yet started on these threads and needs to expire its timeout
as there's no way to wake it up. But all threads are eventually stopped.
The thread group info is not sufficient to represent a thread group's
current state as it's read-only. We also need something comparable to
the thread context to represent the aggregate state of the threads in
that group. This patch introduces ha_tgroup_ctx[] and tg_ctx for this.
It's indexed on the group id and must be cache-line aligned. The thread
masks that were global and that do not need to remain global were moved
there (want_rdv, harmless, idle).
Given that all the masks placed there now become group-specific, the
associated thread mask (tid_bit) now switches to the thread's local
bit (ltid_bit). Both are the same for nbtgroups 1 but will differ for
other values.
There's also a tg_ctx pointer in the thread so that it can be reached
from other threads.
This function was added in 2.0 when reworking the thread isolation
mechanism to make it more reliable. However it if fundamentally
incompatible with the full isolation mechanism provided by
thread_isolate_full() since that one will wait for all threads to
become idle while the former will wait for all threads to finish
waiting, causing a deadlock.
Given that it's not used, let's just drop it entirely before it gets
used by accident.
In order to kill all_threads_mask we'll need to have an equivalent for
the thread groups. The all_tgroups_mask does just this, it keeps one bit
set per enabled group.
In order to replace the global "all_threads_mask" we'll need to have an
equivalent per group. Take this opportunity for calling it threads_enabled
and make sure which ones are counted there (in case in the future we allow
to stop some).
Now that the tgid is accessible from the thread, it's pointless to have
it in the group, and it was only set but never used. However we'll soon
frequently need the mask corresponding to the group ID and the risk of
getting it wrong with the +1 or to shift 1 instead of 1UL is important,
so let's store the tgid_bit there.
At several places we're dereferencing the thread group just to catch
the group number, and this will become even more required once we start
to use per-group contexts. Let's just add the tgid in the thread_info
struct to make this easier.
Every single place where sleeping_thread_mask was still used was to test
or set a single thread. We can now add a per-thread flag to indicate a
thread is sleeping, and remove this shared mask.
The wake_thread() function now always performs an atomic fetch-and-or
instead of a first load then an atomic OR. That's cleaner and more
reliable.
This is not easy to test, as broadcast FD events are rare. The good
way to test for this is to run a very low rate-limited frontend with
a listener that listens to the fewest possible threads (2), and to
send it only 1 connection at a time. The listener will periodically
pause and the wakeup task will sometimes wake up on a random thread
and will call wake_thread():
frontend test
bind :8888 maxconn 10 thread 1-2
rate-limit sessions 5
Alternately, disabling/enabling a frontend in loops via the CLI also
broadcasts such events, but they're more difficult to observe since
this is causing connection failures.
Right now when an inter-thread wakeup happens, we preliminary check if the
thread was asleep, and if so we wake the poller up and remove its bit from
the sleeping mask. That's not very clean since the sleeping mask cannot be
entirely trusted since a thread that's about to wake up will already have
its sleeping bit removed.
This patch adds a new per-thread flag (TH_FL_NOTIFIED) to remember that a
thread was notified to wake up. It's cleared before checking the task lists
last, so that new wakeups can be considered again (since wake_thread() is
only used to notify about task wakeups and FD polling changes). This way
we do not need to modify a remote thread's sleeping mask anymore. As such
wake_thread() now only tests and sets the TH_FL_NOTIFIED flag but doesn't
clear sleeping anymore.
When returning from the polling syscall, all pollers have a certain
dance to follow, made of wall clock updates, thread harmless updates,
idle time management and sleeping mask updates. Let's have a centralized
function to deal with all of this boring stuff: fd_leaving_poll(), and
make all the pollers use it.
The thread flags are touched a little bit by other threads, e.g. the STUCK
flag may be set by other ones, and they're watched a little bit. As such
we need to use atomic ops only to manipulate them. Most places were already
using them, but here we generalize the practice. Only ha_thread_dump() does
not change because it's run under isolation.
The thread flags were once believed to be local to the thread, but as
it stands, even the STUCK flag is shared since it's looked at by the
watchdog. As such we'll need to use atomic ops to manipulate them, and
likely to move them into the shared area.
This patch only moves the flag into the shared area so that we can later
decide whether it's best to leave them there or to move them back to the
local area. Interestingly, some tests have shown a 3% better performance
on dequeuing with this, while they're not used by other threads yet, so
there are definitely alignment effects that might change over time.
Almost every call place of wake_thread() checks for sleeping threads and
clears the sleeping mask itself, while the function is solely used for
there. Let's move the check and the clearing of the bit inside the function
itself. Note that updt_fd_polling() still performs the check because its
rules are a bit different.
Since we don't mix tasks from different threads in the run queues
anymore, we don't need to use the eb32sc_ trees and we can switch
to the regular eb32 ones. This uses cheaper lookup and insert code,
and a 16-thread test on the queues shows a performance increase
from 570k RPS to 585k RPS.
This bit field used to be a per-thread cache of the result of the last
lookup of the presence of a task for each thread in the shared cache.
Since we now know that each thread has its own shared cache, a test of
emptiness is now sufficient to decide whether or not the shared tree
has a task for the current thread. Let's just remove this mask.
grq_total was only used to know how many tasks were being queued in the
global runqueue for stats purposes, and that was transferred to the per
thread rq_total counter once assigned. We don't need this anymore since
we know where they are, so let's just directly update rq_total and drop
that one.
Since we only use the shared runqueue to put tasks only assigned to
known threads, let's move that runqueue to each of these threads. The
goal will be to arrange an N*(N-1) mesh instead of a central contention
point.
The global_rqueue_ticks had to be dropped (for good) since we'll now
use the per-thread rqueue_ticks counter for both trees.
A few points to note:
- the rq_lock stlil remains the global one for now so there should not
be any gain in doing this, but should this trigger any regression, it
is important to detect whether it's related to the lock or to the tree.
- there's no more reason for using the scope-based version of the ebtree
now, we could switch back to the regular eb32_tree.
- it's worth checking if we still need TASK_GLOBAL (probably only to
delete a task in one's own shared queue maybe).
The runqueue ticks counter is per-thread and wasn't initially meant to
be shared. We'll soon have to share it so let's make it atomic. It's
only updated when waking up a task, and no performance difference was
observed. It was moved in the thread_ctx struct so that it doesn't
pollute the local cache line when it's later updated by other threads.
This function stopped being used before 2.4 because either the task is
dequeued by the scheduler itself and it knows where to find it, or it's
killed by any thread, and task_kill() must be used for this as only this
one is safe.
It's difficult to say whether task_unlink_rq() is still safe, but once
the lock moves to a thread declared in the task itself, it will be even
more difficult to keep it safe.
Let's just remove it now before someone reuses it and causes trouble.
TASK_SHARED_WQ was set upon task creation and never changed afterwards.
Thus if a task was created to run anywhere (e.g. a check or a Lua task),
all its timers would always pass through the shared timers queue with a
lock. Now we know that tid<0 indicates a shared task, so we can use that
to decide whether or not to use the shared queue. The task might be
migrated using task_set_affinity() but it's always dequeued first so
the check will still be valid.
Not only this removes a flag that's difficult to keep synchronized with
the thread ID, but it should significantly lower the load on systems with
many checks. A quick test with 5000 servers and fast checks that were
saturating the CPU shows that the check rate increased by 20% (hence the
CPU usage dropped by 17%). It's worth noting that run_task_lists() almost
no longer appears in perf top now.
As previously advertised in comments, the mask-based task_new() is now
gone. The low-level function now is task_new_on() which takes a thread
number or a negative value for "any thread", which is turned to zero
for thread-less builds since there's no shared WQ in thiscase. The
task_new_here() and task_new_anywhere() functions were adjusted
accordingly.
This removes the mask-based variant so that from now on the low-level
function becomes appctx_new_on() and it takes either a thread number or
a negative value for "any thread". This way we can use task_new_on() and
task_new_anywhere() instead of task_new() which will soon disappear.
At several places we need to figure the ID of the first thread allowed
to run a task. Till now this was performed using my_ffsl(t->thread_mask)
but since we now have the thread ID stored into the task, let's use it
instead. This is tagged major because it starts to assume that tid<0 is
strictly equivalent to atleast2(thread_mask), and that as such, among
the allowed threads are the current one.
The tasks currently rely on a mask but do not have an assigned thread ID,
contrary to tasklets. However, in practice they're either running on a
single thread or on any thread, so that it will be worth simplifying all
this in order to ease the transition to the thread groups.
This patch introduces a "tid" field in the task struct, that's either
the number of the thread the task is attached to, or a negative value
if the task is not bound to a thread, (i.e. its mask is all_threads_mask).
The new ID is only set and updated but not used yet.
For now we still set tid_bit to (1UL << tid) because FDs will not
work with more than one group without this, but once FDs start to
adopt local masks this must change to thr->ltid_bit.
Some FDs might be offered to some external code (external libraries)
which will deal with them until they close them. As such we must not
close them upon fd_delete() but we need to delete them anyway so that
they do not appear anymore in the fdtab. This used to be handled by
fd_remove() before 2.3 but we don't have this anymore.
This patch introduces a new flag FD_DISOWN to let fd_delete() know that
the core doesn't own the fd and it must not be closed upon removal from
the fd_tab. This way it's totally unregistered from the poller but still
open.
This patch must be backported on branches >= 2.3 because it will be
needed to fix a bug affecting SSL async. it should be adapted on 2.3
because state flags were stored in a different way (via bits in the
structure).
Implement a new status function for ncbuf. It allows to quickly report
if a buffer contains data in a fragmented way, i.e. with gaps in between
or at start of the buffer.
To summarize, a buffer is considered as non-fragmented in the following
cases :
- a null or empty buffer
- a full buffer
- a buffer containing exactly one data block at the beginning, following
by a gap until the end.
With ~1500 bytes QUIC datagrams, we can handle less than 200 datagrams
which is less than the default maxpollevents value. This should reduce
the chances of fulfilling the connections RX buffers as reported by
Tristan in GH #1737.
Must be backported to 2.6.
Remove the call to qc_list_all_rx_pkts() which print messages on stderr
during RX buffer overruns and add a new counter for the number of dropped packets
because of such events.
Must be backported to 2.6
We want to be able to schedule a tasklet onto a thread after the current tasklet
is done. What we have to do is to insert this tasklet at the head of the thread
task list. Furthermore, we would like to serialize the tasklets. They must be
run in the same order as the order in which they have been scheduled. This is
implemented passing a list of tasklet as parameter (see <head> parameters) which
must be reused for subsequent calls.
_tasklet_wakeup_after_on() is implemented to accomplish this job.
tasklet_wakeup_after_on() and tasklet_wake_after() are only wrapper macros around
_tasklet_wakeup_after_on(). tasklet_wakeup_after_on() does exactly the same thing
as _tasklet_wakeup_after_on() without having to pass the filename and line in the
filename as parameters (usefull when DEBUG_TASK is enabled).
tasklet_wakeup_after() hides also the usage of the thread parameter which is
<tl> tasklet thread ID.
In GH #1760 (which is marked as being a feature), there were compilation
errors on MacOS which could be reproduced in Linux when building 32-bit code
(-m32 gcc option). Most of them were due to variables types mixing in QUIC_MIN macro
or using size_t type in place of uint64_t type.
Must be backported to 2.6.
Sometimes using "debug dev memstats" can be frustrating because all
pool allocations are reported through pool-os.h and that's all.
But in practice there's nothing wrong with also intercepting pool_alloc,
pool_free and pool_zalloc and report their call counts and locations,
so that's what this patch does. It only uses an alternate set of macroes
for these 3 calls when DEBUG_MEM_STATS is defined. The outputs are
reported as P_ALLOC (for both pool_malloc() and pool_zalloc()) and
P_FREE (for pool_free()).
freq_ctr_overshoot_period() function may be used to retrieve the excess of
events over the current period for a givent frequency counter, ignoring the
history. It is a way compare the "current rate" (the number of events over
the current period) to a given rate and estimate the excess of events.
It may be used to safely add new events, especially at the begining of the
current period for a frequency counter with large period. This way, it is
possible to smoothly add events during the whole period without quickly
consuming all the quota at the beginning of the period and waiting for the
next one to be able to add new events.
Sometimes we need to be able to signal one thread among a mask, without
caring much about which bit will be picked. At the moment we use ffsl()
for this but this sometimes results in imbalance at certain specific
places where the same first thread in a set is always the same one that
is selected.
Another approach would consist in using the rank finding function but it
requires a popcount and a setup phase, and possibly a modulo operation
depending on the popcount, which starts to be very expensive.
Here we take a different approach. The idea is an input bit value is
passed, from 0 to LONGBITS-1, and that as much as possible we try to
pick the bit matching it if it is set. Otherwise we look at a mirror
position based on a decreasing power of two, and jump to the side
that still has bits left. In 6 iterations it ends up spotting one bit
among 64 and the operations are very cheap and optimizable. This method
has the benefit that we don't care where the holes are located in the
mask, thus it shows a good distribution of output bits based on the
input ones. A long-time test shows an average of 16 cycles, or ~4ns
per lookup at 3.8 GHz, which is about twice as fast as using the rank
finding function.
Just like for that one, the code was stored into tools.c since we don't
have a C file for intops.
Implement quic_tp_version_info_dump() to dump such a transport parameter (only remote).
Call it from quic_transport_params_dump() which dump all the transport parameters.
Can be backported to 2.6 as it's useful for debugging.
This counter must be incremented only one time by connection and decremented
as soon as the handshake has failed or succeeded. This is a gauge. Under certain
conditions this counter could be decremented twice. For instance
after having received a TLS alert, then upon SSL_do_handshake() failure.
To stop having to deal to all the current combinations which can lead to such a
situation (and the next to come), add a connection flag to denote if this counter
has been already decremented for a connection. So, this counter must be decremented
only if this flag has not been already set.
Must be backported up to 2.6.
In order to better detect the danger caused by extra shared libraries
which replace some symbols, upon dlopen() we now compare a few critical
symbols such as malloc(), free(), and some OpenSSL symbols, to see if
the loaded library comes with its own version. If this happens, a
warning is emitted and TAINTED_REDEFINITION is set. This is important
because some external libs might be linked against different libraries
than the ones haproxy was linked with, and most often this will end
very badly (e.g. an OpenSSL object is allocated by haproxy and freed
by such libs).
Since the main source of dlopen() calls is the Lua lib, via a "require"
statement, it's worth trying to show a Lua call trace when detecting a
symbol redefinition during dlopen(). As such we emit a Lua backtrace if
Lua is detected as being in use.
Several bug reports were caused by shared libraries being loaded by other
libraries or some Lua code. Such libraries could define alternate symbols
or include dependencies to alternate versions of a library used by haproxy,
making it very hard to understand backtraces and analyze the issue.
Let's intercept dlopen() and set a new TAINTED_SHARED_LIBS flag when it
succeeds, so that "show info" makes it visible that some external libs
were added.
The redefinition is based on the definition of RTLD_DEFAULT or RTLD_NEXT
that were previously used to detect that dlsym() is usable, since we need
it as well. This should be sufficient to catch most situations.
This function may be used to try to show where some Lua code is currently
being executed. It tries hard to detect the initialization phase, both for
the global and the per-thread states, and for runtime states. This intends
to be used by error handlers to provide the users with indications about
what Lua code was being executed when the error triggered.
When the protocol is changed for a client connection at the stream level
(from TCP to H1/H2), there are two cases. The stream may be reused or
not. The first case, when the stream is reused is working. The second one is
buggy since the conn-stream refactoring and leads to a crash.
In this case, the new mux don't reuse the stream. It must be silently
aborted. However, its front stream connector is still referencing the
connection. So it must be detached. But it must be performed in two stages,
to be sure to not loose the context for the upgrade and to be able to
rollback on error. So now, before the upgrade, we prepare to detach the
stconn and it is finally detached if the upgrade succeeds. There is a trick
here. Because we pretend the stconn is detached but its state is preserved.
This patch must be backported to 2.6.
At this time haproxy supported only incompatible version negotiation feature which
consists in sending a Version Negotiation packet after having received a long packet
without compatible value in its version field. This version value is the version
use to build the current packet. This patch does not modify this behavior.
This patch adds the support for compatible version negotiation feature which
allows endpoints to negotiate during the first flight or packets sent by the
client the QUIC version to use for the connection (or after the first flight).
This is done thanks to "version_information" parameter sent by both endpoints.
To be short, the client offers a list of supported versions by preference order.
The server (or haproxy listener) chooses the first version it also supported as
negotiated version.
This implementation has an impact on the tranport parameters handling (in both
direcetions). Indeed, the server must sent its version information, but only
after received and parsed the client transport parameters). So we cannot
encode these parameters at the same time we instantiated a new connection.
Add QUIC_TP_DRAFT_VERSION_INFORMATION(0xff73db) new transport parameter.
Add tp_version_information new C struct to handle this new parameter.
Implement quic_transport_param_enc_version_info() (resp.
quic_transport_param_dec_version_info()) to encode (resp. decode) this
parameter.
Add qc_conn_finalize() which encodes the transport parameters and configure
the TLS stack to send them.
Add ->negotiated_ictx quic_conn C struct new member to store the Initial
QUIC TLS context for the negotiated version. The Initial secrets derivation
is version dependent.
Rename ->version to ->original_version and add ->negotiated_version to
this C struct to reflect the QUIC-VN RFC denomination.
Modify most of the QUIC TLS API functions to pass a version as parameter.
Export the QUIC version definitions to be reused at least from quic_tp.c
(transport parameters.
Move the token check after the QUIC connection lookup. As this is the original
version which is sent into a Retry packet, and because this original version is
stored into the connection, we must check the token after having retreived this
connection.
Add packet version to traces.
See https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-quic-version-negotiation-08
for more information about this new feature.
This is becoming difficult to handle the QUIC TLS related definitions
which arrive with a QUIC version (draft or not). So, here we add
quic_version C struct which does not define only the QUIC version number,
but also the QUIC TLS definitions which depend on a QUIC version.
Modify consequently all the QUIC TLS API to reuse these definitions
through new quic_version C struct.
Implement quic_pkt_type() function which return a packet type (0 up to 3)
depending on the QUIC version number.
Stop harding the Retry packet first byte in send_retry(): this is not more
possible because the packet type field depends on the QUIC version.
Also modify quic_build_packet_long_header() for the same reason: the packet
type depends on the QUIC version.
Add a quic_version C struct member to quic_conn C struct.
Modify qc_lstnr_pkt_rcv() to set this member asap.
Remove the version member from quic_rx_packet C struct: a packet is attached
asap to a connection (or dropped) which is the unique object which should
store the QUIC version.
Modify qc_pkt_is_supported_version() to return a supported quic_version C
struct from a version number.
Add Initial salt for QUIC v2 draft (initial_salt_v2_draft).
Due to missing brackets around the ternary C operator, quic_pto() could return zero
at the first run, before the QUIC connection was completely initialized. This leaded
the idle timeout task to be executed before this initialization completion. Then
this connection could be immediately released.
This bug was revealed by the multi_packet_client_hello QUIC tracker test.
Must be backported to 2.6.
The nonce and keys used to cipher the Retry tag depend on the QUIC version.
Add these definitions for 0xff00001d (draft-29) and v2 QUIC version. At least
draft-29 is useful for QUIC tracker tests with "quic-force-retry" enabled
on haproxy side.
Validated with -v 0xff00001d ngtcp2 option.
Could not validate the v2 nonce and key at this time because not supported.
ensures that we never insert too many entries in a headers input list.
On the decoding side, a new error QPACK_ERR_TOO_LARGE is reported in
this case.
This prevents crash if headers number on a H3 request or response is
superior to tune.http.maxhdr config value. Previously, a crash would
occur in QPACK decoding function.
Note that the process still crashes later with ABORT_NOW() because error
reporting on frame parsing is not implemented for now. It should be
treated with a RESET_STREAM frame in most cases.
This can be backported up to 2.6.
Clean up QPACK decoder API by removing dependencies on ncbuf and
MUX-QUIC. This reduces includes statements. It will also help to
implement a standalone QPACK decoder.
Add comments on the decoding function to facilitate code analysis.
Also remove the qpack_debug_hexdump() which prints the whole left buffer
on each header parsing. With large HEADERS frame payload, QPACK traces
are complicated to debug with this statement.
This macro was used both for binding and for lookups. When binding tasks
or FDs, using all_threads_mask instead is better as it will later be per
group. For lookups, ~0UL always does the job. Thus in practice the macro
was already almost not used anymore since the rest of the code could run
fine with a constant of all ones there.
Each thread has its own local thread id and its own global thread id,
in addition to the masks corresponding to each. Once the global thread
ID can go beyond 64 it will not be possible to have a global thread Id
bit anymore, so better start to remove it and use only the local one
from the struct thread_info.
Instead of having a global mask of all the profiled threads, let's have
one flag per thread in each thread's flags. They are never accessed more
than one at a time an are better located inside the threads' contexts for
both performance and scalability.
The flow control enforced at connection level is incorrectly calculated.
There is a risk of exceeding the limit. In most cases, this results in a
segfault produced by a BUG_ON which is here to catch this kind of error.
If not compiled with DEBUG_STRICT, this should generate a connection
closed by the client due to the flow control overflow.
The problem is encountered when transfered payload is big enough to fill
the transport congestion window. In this case, some data are rejected by
the transport layer and kept by the MUX to be reemitted later. However,
these preserved data are not counted on the connection flow control when
resubmitted, which gradually amplify the gap between expected and real
consumed flow control.
To fix this, handle the flow-control at the connection level in the same
way as the stream level. A new field qcc.tx.offsets is incremented as
soon as data are transfered between stream TX buffers. The field
qcc.tx.sent_offsets is preserved to count bytes handled by the transport
layer and stop the MUX transfer if limit is reached.
As already stated, this bug can occur during transfers with enough
emitted data, over multiple streams. When using a single stream, the
flow control at the stream level hides it.
The BUG_ON crash is reproduced systematically with quiche client :
$ quiche-client --no-verify --http-version HTTP/3 -n 10000 https://127.0.0.1:20443/10K
This must be backported up to 2.6 when confirmed to work as expected.
This should fix github issue #1738.
Frame type has changed during HTTP/3 specification process. Adjust it to
reflect the latest RFC 9114 status.
Concretly, type for GOAWAY and MAX_PUSH_ID frames has been adjusted.
The impact of this bug is limited as currently these frames are not
handled by haproxy and are ignored.
This can be backported up to 2.6.
Benoit Dolez reported that gcc-4.4 emits several "may be used
uninitialized" warnings around places where there are BUG_ON()
or ABORT_NOW(). The reason is that __builtin_unreachable() was
introduced in gcc-4.5 thus older ones do not know that the code
after such statements is not reachable.
This patch solves the problem by deplacing the statement with
an infinite loop on older versions. The compiler knows that the
code following it cannot be reached, and this is quite cheap
(2 to 4 bytes depending on architectures). It even reduces the
code size a little bit as the compiler doesn't have to optimize
for branches that do not exist.
This may be backported to older versions.
Clean the API used by decode_qcs() and transcoder internal functions.
Parsing functions now returns a ssize_t which represents the number of
consumed bytes or a negative error code. The total consumed bytes is
returned via decode_qcs().
The API is now unified and cleaner. The MUX can thus simply use the
return value of decode_qcs() instead of substracting the data bytes in
the buffer before and after the call. Transcoders functions are not
anymore obliged to remove consumed bytes from the buffer which was not
obvious.
Slightly modify decode_qcs function used by transcoders. The MUX now
gives a buffer instance on which each transcoder is free to work on it.
At the return of the function, the MUX removes consume data from its own
buffer.
This reduces the number of invocation to qcs_consume at the end of a
full demuxing process. The API is also cleaner with the transcoders not
responsible of calling it with the risk of having the input buffer
freed if empty.
As a mirror to qcc/qcs types, add a h3c pointer into h3s struct. This
should help to clean up H3 code and avoid to use qcs.qcc.ctx to retrieve
the h3c instance.
htx_get_head_blk() is used at plenty of places, many of which are known
to be safe, but the function checks for the presence of a first block
and returns NULL if it doesn't exist. While it's properly used, it makes
compilers complain at -Os on stream.c and mux_fcgi.c because they probably
don't propagate variables far enough to see that there's no risk.
Let's add an unchecked version for these use cases.
Add ->inc_err_cnt new callback to qcc_app_ops struct which can
be called from xprt to increment the application level error code counters.
It take the application context as first parameter to be generic and support
new QUIC applications to come.
Add h3_stats.c module with counters for all the frame types and error codes.
Add new counters to count the number of dropped packet upon parsing error, lost
sent packets and the number of stateless reset packet sent.
Take the oppportunity of this patch to rename CONN_OPENINGS to QUIC_ST_HALF_OPEN_CONN
(total number of half open connections) and QUIC_ST_HDSHK_FAILS to QUIC_ST_HDSHK_FAIL.
This is becoming difficult to distinguish the default values for
transport parameters which come with the RFC from our implementation
default values when not set by configuration (tunable parameters).
Add a comment to distinguish them.
Prefix these default values by QUIC_TP_DFLT_ to distinguish them from
QUIC_DFLT_* value even if there are not numerous.
Furthermore ->max_udp_payload_size must be first initialized to
QUIC_TP_DFLT_MAX_UDP_PAYLOAD_SIZE especially for received value.
Add tunable "tune.quic.frontend.max_streams_bidi" setting for QUIC frontends
to set the "initial_max_streams_bidi" transport parameter.
Add some documentation for this new setting.
Add two tunable settings both for backends and frontends "max_idle_timeout"
QUIC transport parameter, "tune.quic.frontend.max-idle-timeout" and
"tune.quic.backend.max-idle-timeout" respectively.
cfg_parse_quic_time() has been implemented to parse a time value thanks
to parse_time_err(). It should be reused for any tunable time value to be
parsed.
Add the documentation for this tunable setting only for frontend.
Add quic_transport_params_dump() static inline function to do so for
a quic_transport_parameters struct as parameter.
We use the trace API do dump these transport parameters both
after they have been initialized (RX/local) or received (TX/remote).
Make the transport parameters be standlone as much as possible as
it consists only in encoding/decoding data into/from buffers.
Reduce the size of xprt_quic.h. Unfortunalety, I think we will
have to continue to include <xprt_quic-t.h> to use the trace API
into this module.
The only two places where it was used was to carefully preserve the
SE_FL_WILL_CONSUME flag (since others are irrelevant there and the
previous RXBLK* flags moved to the stconn). Now that the flag is
cleared by default there's no need to re-created a fresh new one
when replacing the descriptor, so we can eliminate that remaining
trick.
This flag was the only remaining one that was inverted as a blocking
condition, requiring special handling to preset it on sedesc allocation.
Let's flip it in its definition and accessors.
Function arguments and local variables called "cs" were renamed to "sc"
to avoid future confusion. Both the core functions and the ones in the
resolvers files were updated.
Function arguments and local variables called "cs" were renamed to "sc"
to avoid future confusion. The HTTP analyser and the backend functions
were all updated after being reviewed. Function stream_update_both_cs()
was renamed to stream_update_both_sc()
Function arguments and local variables called "cs" were renamed to "sc"
to avoid future confusion. The "nb_cs" stream-connector counter was
renamed to "nb_sc" and qc_attach_cs() was renamed to qc_attach_sc().
Function arguments and local variables called "cs" were renamed to "sc"
to avoid future confusion. The change is huge (~580 lines), so extreme
care was given not to change anything else.
The check struct had a "cs" field renamed to "sc", which also required
a tiny update to a few functions using it to distinguish a check from
a stream (log.c, payload.c, ssl_sample.c, tcp_sample.c, tcpcheck.c,
connection.c).
Function arguments and local variables called "cs" were renamed to "sc".
The presence of one "cs=" in the debugging traces was also turned to
"sc=" for consistency.
There's no more reason for keepin the code and definitions in conn_stream,
let's move all that to stconn. The alphabetical ordering of include files
was adjusted.
This file contains all the stream-connector functions that are specific
to application layers of type stream. So let's name it accordingly so
that it's easier to figure what's located there.
The alphabetical ordering of include files was preserved.
An equivalent applet_need_more_data() was added as well since that function
is mostly used from applet code. It makes it much clearer that the applet
is waiting for data from the stream layer.
These ones are essentially for the stream endpoint, let's give them a
name that matches the intent. Equivalent versions were provided in the
applet namespace to ease code legibility.
These ones were used exactly once and together, in sc_is_send_allowed().
No need to give them confusing names, instead let's just put the flags,
they're way more explicit, and drop the two functions.
This flag indicates the that stream endpoint is willing to consume output
data from the stream. Its new name makes this more explicit. The function
names will be updated accordingly, which will remove the disturbing "get"
everywhere.
The following flags are not at all related to the endpoint but to the
connector itself:
- SE_FL_RXBLK_ROOM
- SE_FL_RXBLK_BUFF
- SE_FL_RXBLK_CHAN
As such they have no business staying in the endpoint descriptor and
they must move to the stream connector. They've also been renamed
accordingly to better match what they correspond to (the same name
as the function that sets them).
The rare occurrences of cs_rx_blocked() were replaced by an explicit
test on the list of flags. The reason is that cs_rx_blocked() used to
preserve some tests that are not needed at certain places since already
known. For the same reason SE_FL_RXBLK_ANY wasn't converted. As such it
will later be possible to carefully review these few locations and
eliminate the unneeded flags from the tests. No particular function
was made to test them since they're explicit enough.
It now looks like ci_putchk() and friends could very well place the flag
themselves on the connector when they detect a buffer full condition, as
this would significantly simplify the high-level API. But all usages must
first be reviewed before this simplification can be done. For now it
remains done by applet_put*() instead.
It's more explicit this way. The cs_rx_endp_ready() function could be
removed so that the flag is directly tested. In the future it should
be inverted and the few places where it's set (or preserved via
SE_FL_APP_MASK) could be dropped.
At plenty of places we combine multiple flags checks to determine if we
can receive (endp_ready, rx_blocked, cf_shutr etc). Let's group them
under a single function that is meant to replace existing tests.
Some tests were only checking the rxblk flags at the connection level,
so for now they were not converted, this requires a bit of auditing
first, and probably a test to determine whether or not to check for
cf_shutr (e.g. there is none if no stream is present).
The analysis of cs_rx_endp_more() showed that the purpose is for a stream
endpoint to inform the connector that it's ready to deliver more data to
that one, and conversely cs_rx_endp_done() that it's done delivering data
so it should not be bothered again for this.
This was modified two ways:
- the operation is no longer performed on the connector but on the
endpoint so that there is no more doubt when reading applet code
about what this rx refers to; it's the endpoint that has more or
no more data.
- an applet implementation is also provided and mostly used from
applet code since it saves the caller from having to access the
endpoint descriptor.
It's visible that the flag ought to be inverted because some places
have to set it by default for no reason.
These functions are used by the application layer to disable or enable
reading at the stream connector's level when the input buffer failed to
be allocated (or was finally allocated). The new names makes things
clearer.
These functions were used by the channel to inform the lower layer
whether reading was acceptable or not. Usually this directly mimmicks
the CF_DONT_READ flag from the channel, which may be set when it's
desired not to buffer incoming data that will not be processed, or
that the buffer wants to be flushed before starting to read again,
or that bandwidth limiting might be enforced, etc. It's always a
policy reason, not a purely resource-based one.
The new name mor eclearly indicates that a stream connector cannot make
any more progress because it needs room in the channel buffer, or that
it may be unblocked because the buffer now has more room available. The
testing function is sc_waiting_room(). This is mostly used by applets.
Note that the flags will change soon.
This makes SE_FL_APPLET_NEED_CONN autonomous, in that we check for it
everywhere we have a relevant cs_rx_blocked(), so that the flag doesn't
need anymore to be covered by cs_rx_blocked(). Indeed, this flag doesn't
really translate a receive blocking condition but rather a refusal to
wake up an applet that is waiting for a connection to finish to setup.
This also ensures we will not risk to set it back on a new endpoint
after cs_reset_endp() via SE_FL_APP_MASK, because the flag being
specific to the endpoint only and not to the connector, we don't
want to preserve it when replacing the endpoint.
It's possible that cs_chk_rcv() could later be further simplified if
we can demonstrate that the two tests in it can be merged.
This flag is exclusively used when a front applet needs to wait for the
other side to connect (or fail to). Let's give it a more explicit name
and remove the ambiguous function that was used only once.
This also ensures we will not risk to set it back on a new endpoint
after cs_reset_endp() via SE_FL_APP_MASK, because the flag being
specific to the endpoint only and not to the connector, we don't
want to preserve it when replacing the endpoint.
This flag is no more needed, it was only set on shut read to be tested
by cs_rx_blocked() which is now properly tested for shutr as well. The
cs_rx_blk_shut() calls were removed. Interestingly it allowed to remove
a special case in the L7 retry code.
This also ensures we will not risk to set it back on a new endpoint
after cs_reset_endp() via SE_FL_APP_MASK.
One flag (RXBLK_SHUT) is always set with CF_SHUTR, so in order to remove
it, we first need to make sure we always check for CF_SHUTR where
cs_rx_blocked() is being used.
When a shutdown(WR) is performed, send is no longer allowed, and that is
currently handled by the explicit cs_done_get() in the various shutw()
calls. That's a bit ugly and complicated for no reason, let's simply
integrate the test of SHUTW in sc_is_send_allowed().
Note that the test could also be added wherever sc_is_send_allowed() is
used but for now proceeding like this limits the changes.
sc_is_send_allowed() is now used everywhere instead of the combination
of cs_tx_endp_ready() && !cs_tx_blocked(). There's no place where we
need them individually thus it's simpler. The test was placed in cs_util
as we'll complete it later.
A number of functions in cs_utils.h are not usable from functions taking
a const because they're not declared as using const, despite never
modifying the stconn. Let's address this for the following ones:
sc_ic(), sc_oc(), sc_ib(), sc_ob(), sc_strm_task(),
cs_opposite(), sc_conn_ready(), cs_src(), cs_dst(),
First it applies to the stream endpoint and not the conn_stream, and
second it only tests and touches the flags so it makes sense to call
it se_fl_ like other functions which only manipulate the flags, as
it's just a special case of flags.
It returns an stconn from a connection and not the opposite, so the name
change was more appropriate. In addition it was moved to connection.h
which manipulates the connection stuff, and it happens that only
connection.c uses it.
The following functions which act on a connection-based stream connector
were renamed to sc_conn_* (~60 places):
cs_conn_drain_and_shut
cs_conn_process
cs_conn_read0
cs_conn_ready
cs_conn_recv
cs_conn_send
cs_conn_shut
cs_conn_shutr
cs_conn_shutw
The function doesn't return a pointer to the mux but to the mux stream
(h1s, h2s etc). Let's adjust its name to reflect this. It's rarely used,
the name can be enlarged a bit. And of course s/cs/sc to accommodate for
the updated name.
These functions return the app-layer associated with an stconn, which
is a check, a stream or a stream's task. They're used a lot to access
channels, flags and for waking up tasks. Let's just name them
appropriately for the stream connector.
We're starting to propagate the stream connector's new name through the
API. Most call places of these functions that retrieve the channel or its
buffer are in applets. The local variable names are not changed in order
to keep the changes small and reviewable. There were ~92 uses of cs_ic(),
~96 of cs_oc() (due to co_get*() being less factorizable than ci_put*),
and ~5 accesses to the buffer itself.
The vast majority of calls to ci_putchk() etc are performed from applets
which directly know an endpoint. Figuring the correct API (writing into
input channel etc) isn't trivial for newcomers, and knowing that they
must mark the flag indicating a buffer full condition isn't trivial
either.
Here we're adding wrappers to these functions but to be used directly
from the appctx. That's already what is being done in multiple steps in
the applet code, where the endp is derived from the appctx, then the cs
from the endp, then the stream from the cs, then the channel from the
stream, and so on. But this time the function doesn't require to know
much of the internals, applet_putchr() writes a char from the appctx,
and marks the buffer full if needed. Period. This will allow to remove
a significant amount of obscure ci_putchk() and cs_ic() calls from the
code, hence a significant number of possible mistakes.
For historical reasons (stream-interface and connections), we used to
require two independent fields for the application level callbacks and
the transport-level functions. Over time the distinction faded away so
much that the low-level functions became specific to the application
and conversely. For example, applets may only work with streams on top
since they rely on the channels, and the stream-level functions differ
between applets and connections. Right now the application level only
contains a wake() callback and the low-level ones contain the functions
that act at the lower level to perform the shutr/shutw and at the upper
level to notify about readability and writability. Let's just merge them
together into a single set and get rid of this confusing distinction.
Note that the check ops do not define any app-level function since these
are only called by streams.
We currently call all ->shutr, ->chk_snd etc from ->ops unconditionally,
while the ->wake() call from data_cb is checked. Better check ops as
well for consistency, this will help get them merged.
This also follows the natural naming. There are roughly 238 changes, all
totally trivial. conn_stream-t.h has become completely void of any
"conn_stream" related stuff now (except its name).
This renames the "struct conn_stream" to "struct stconn" and updates
the descriptions in all comments (and the rare help descriptions) to
"stream connector" or "connector". This touches a lot of files but
the change is minimal. The local variables were not even renamed, so
there's still a lot of "cs" everywhere.
Let's start to introduce the stream connector at the app_ops level.
This is entirely self-contained into conn_stream.c. The functions
were also updated to reflect the new name, and the comments were
updated.
Just like for the appctx, this is a pointer to a stream endpoint descriptor,
so let's make this explicit and not confuse it with the full endpoint. There
are very few changes thanks to the preliminary refactoring of the flags
manipulation.
Now at least it makes it obvious that it's the stream endpoint descriptor
and not an endpoint. There were few changes thanks to the previous refactor
of the flags.
After some discussion we found that the cs_endpoint was precisely the
descriptor for a stream endpoint, hence the naturally coming name,
stream endpoint constructor.
This patch renames only the type everywhere and the new/init/free functions
to remain consistent with it. Future patches will address field names and
argument names in various code areas.
That's the "stream endpoint" pointer. Let's change it now while it's
not much spread. The function __cs_endp_target() wasn't yet renamed
because that will change more globally soon.
This changes all main uses of endp->flags to the se_fl_*() equivalent
by applying coccinelle script endp_flags.cocci. The se_fl_*() functions
themselves were manually excluded from the change, of course.
Note: 144 locations were touched, manually reviewed and found to be OK.
The script was applied with all includes:
spatch --in-place --recursive-includes -I include --sp-file $script $files
This changes all main uses of cs->endp->flags to the sc_ep_*() equivalent
by applying coccinelle script cs_endp_flags.cocci.
Note: 143 locations were touched, manually reviewed and found to be OK,
except a single one that was adjusted in cs_reset_endp() where the flags
are read and filtered to be used as-is and not as a boolean, hence was
replaced with sc_ep_get() & $FLAGS.
The script was applied with all includes:
spatch --in-place --recursive-includes -I include --sp-file $script $files
At plenty of places we need to manipulate the conn_stream's endpoint just
to set or clear a flag. This patch adds a handful of functions to perform
the common operations (clr/set/get etc) on these flags at both the endpoint
and at the conn_stream level.
The functions were named after the target names, i.e. se_fl_*() to act on
the stream endpoint flags, and sc_ep_* to manipulate the endpoint flags
from the stream connector (currently conn_stream).
For now they're not used.
This one is exclusively used by the connection, regardless its generic
name "ctx" is rather confusing. Let's make it a struct connection* and
call it "conn". This way there's no doubt about what it is and there's
no way it will be used by accident by being taken for something else.
This reverts commit d9404b464f.
In fact, there is a BUG_ON() in __task_free() function to be sure the task
is no longer in the wait-queue or the run-queue. Because the patch tries to
fix a "leak" on deinit, it is safer to revert it. there is no reason to
introduce potential bug for this kind of issues. And there is no reason to
impact the normal use-cases at runtime with additionnal conditions to only
remove a task on deinit.
Bring some improvment to h3_parse_settings_frm() function. The first one
is the parsing which now manipulates a buffer instead of a plain char*.
This is more to unify with other parsing functions rather than dealing
with data wrapping : it's unlikely to happen as SETTINGS is only
received as the first frame on the control STREAM.
Various errors are now properly reported as connection error :
* on incomplete frame payload
* on a duplicated settings in the same frame
* on reserved settings receive
As specified by HTTP/3 draft, an unknown unidirectional stream can be
aborted. To do this, use a new flag QC_SF_READ_ABORTED. When the MUX
detects this flag, QCS instance is automatically freed.
Previously, such streams were instead automatically drained. By aborting
them, we economize some useless memcpy instruction. On future data
reception, QCS instance is not found in the tree and considered as
already closed. The frame payload is thus deleted without copying it.
Remove all unnecessary bits of code for H3 unidirectional streams. Most
notable, an individual tasklet is not require anymore for each stream.
This is useless since the merge of RX/TX uni streams handling with
bidirectional streams code.
The whole QUIC stack is impacted by this change :
* at quic-conn level, a single function is now used to handle uni and
bidirectional streams. It uses qcc_recv() function from MUX.
* at MUX level, qc_recv() io-handler function does not skip uni streams
* most changes are conducted at app layer. Most notably, all received
data is handle by decode_qcs operation.
Now that decode_qcs is the single app read function, the H3 layer can be
simplified. Uni streams parsing was extracted from h3_attach_ruqs() to
h3_decode_qcs().
h3_decode_qcs() is able to deal with all HTTP/3 frame types. It first
check if the frame is valid for the H3 stream type. Most notably,
SETTINGS parsing was moved from h3_control_recv() into h3_decode_qcs().
This commit has some major benefits besides removing duplicated code.
Mainly, QUIC flow control is now enforced for uni streams as with bidi
streams. Also, an unknown frame received on control stream does not set
an error : it is now silently ignored as required by the specification.
Some cleaning in H3 code is already done with this patch :
h3_control_recv() and h3_attach_ruqs() are removed as they are now
unused. A final patch should clean up the unneeded remaining bit.
Define a new enum h3s_t. This is used to differentiate between the
different stream types used in a HTTP/3 connection, including the QPACK
encoder/decoder streams.
For the moment, only bidirectional streams is positioned. This patch
will be useful to unify reception of uni streams with bidirectional
ones.
Replace h3_uqs type by qcs in stream callbacks. This change is done in
the context of unification between bidi and uni-streams. h3_uqs type
will be unneeded when this is achieved.
Complete quic-conn API for error reporting. A new parameter <app> is
defined in the function quic_set_connection_close(). This will transform
the frame into a CONNECTION_CLOSE_APP type.
This type of frame will be generated by the applicative layer, h3 or
hq-interop for the moment. A new function qcc_emit_cc_app() is exported
by the MUX layer for them.
Do not allocate cs_endpoint for every QCS instances in qcs_new().
Instead, this is delayed to qc_attach_cs() function.
In effect, with H3 as app protocol, cs_endpoint will be allocated on
HEADERS parsing. Thus, no cs_endpoint is allocated for H3 unidirectional
streams which do not convey any HTTP data.
A running or queued task is not released when task_destroy() is called,
except if it is the current task. Its process function is set to NULL and we
let the scheduler to release the task. However, when HAProxy is stopping, it
never happens and some tasks may leak. To fix the issue, we now also rely on
the global MODE_STOPPING flag. When this flag is set, the task is always
immediately released.
This patch should fix the issue #1714. It could be backported as far as 2.4
but it's not a real problem in practice because it only happens on
deinit. The leak exists on previous versions but not MODE_STOPPING flag.
the cpuset api changes done fir the future 14 release had been
backported to the 13.1 release so changing the cpuset api of choice
condition change accordingly.
In order to be able to check compatibility between muxes and transport
layers, we'll need a new flag to tag muxes that work on framed transport
layers like QUIC. Only QUIC has this flag now.
Let's collect the set of xprt-level and sock-level dgram/stream protocols
seen on a bind line and store that in the bind_conf itself while they're
being parsed. This will make it much easier to detect incompatibilities
later than the current approch which consists in scanning all listeners
in post-parsing.
There is no way to store useful info there, yet there's about one entry
per boolean. Let's add an "options" attribute which will collect various
options.
In practice, even the BC_O_SSL_* flags and a few info such as strict_sni
could move there.
The "bind" parsing code was duplicated for the peers section and as a
result it wasn't kept updated, resulting in slightly different error
behavior (e.g. errors were not freed, warnings were emitted as alerts)
Let's first unify it into a new dedicated function that properly reports
and frees the error.
There's been some great confusion between proto_type, ctrl_type and
sock_type. It turns out that ctrl_type was improperly chosen because
it's not the control layer that is of this or that type, but the
transport layer, and it turns out that the transport layer doesn't
(normally) denaturate the underlying control layer, except for QUIC
which turns dgrams to streams. The fact that the SOCK_{DGRAM|STREAM}
set of values was used added to the confusion.
Let's replace it with xprt_type which reuses the later introduced
PROTO_TYPE_* values, and update the comments to explain which one
works at what level.
Send a CONNECTION_CLOSE if the peer emits more data than authorized by
our flow-control. This is implemented for both stream and connection
level.
Fields have been added in qcc/qcs structures to differentiate received
offsets for limit enforcing with consumed offsets for sending of
MAX_DATA/MAX_STREAM_DATA frames.
Define an API to easily set a CONNECTION_CLOSE. This will mainly be
useful for the MUX when an error is detected which require to close the
whole connection.
On the MUX side, a new flag is added when a CONNECTION_CLOSE has been
prepared. This will disable add future send operations.
This QUIC specific keyword may be used to set the theshold, in number of
connection openings, beyond which QUIC Retry feature will be automatically
enabled. Its default value is 100.
First commit to handle the QUIC stats counters. There is nothing special to say
except perhaps for ->conn_openings which is a gauge to count the number of
connection openings. It is incremented after having instantiated a quic_conn
struct, then decremented when the handshake was successful (handshake completed
state) or failed or when the connection timed out without reaching the handshake
completed state.
If we add a new stats module to C source files including only
stats.h we get these errors:
include/haproxy/stats.h:39:31: error: array type has incomplete element type
‘struct name_desc’
39 | extern const struct name_desc stat_fields[];
include/haproxy/stats.h:55:50: warning: ‘struct listener’ declared inside
parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition or declaration
55 | int stats_fill_li_stats(struct proxy *px, struct listener *l, int flags,
name_desc struct is defined in tools-t.h and listener struct in listner-t.h.
Here is the format of a token:
- format (1 byte)
- ODCID (from 9 up 21 bytes)
- creation timestamp (4 bytes)
- salt (16 bytes)
A format byte is required to distinguish the Retry token from others sent in
NEW_TOKEN frames.
The Retry token is ciphered after having derived a strong secret from the cluster secret
and generated the AEAD AAD, as well as a 16 bytes long salt. This salt is
added to the token. Obviously it is not ciphered. The format byte is not
ciphered too.
The AAD are built by quic_generate_retry_token_aad() which concatenates the version,
the client SCID and the IP address and port. We had to implement quic_saddr_cpy()
to copy the IP address and port to the AAD buffer. Only the Retry SCID is generated
on our side to build a Retry packet, the others fields come from the first packet
received by the client. It must reuse this Retry SCID in response to our Retry packet.
So, we have not to store it on our side. Everything is offloaded to the client (stateless).
quic_generate_retry_token() must be used to generate a Retry packet. It calls
quic_pkt_encrypt() to cipher the token.
quic_generate_retry_check() must be used to check the validity of a Retry token.
It is able to decipher a token which arrives into an Initial packet in response
to a Retry packet. It calls parse_retry_token() after having deciphered the token
to store the ODCID into a local quic_cid struct variable. Finally this ODCID may
be stored into the transport parameter thanks to qc_lstnr_params_init().
The Retry token lifetime is 10 seconds. This lifetime is also checked by
quic_generate_retry_check(). If quic_generate_retry_check() fails, the received
packet is dropped without anymore packet processing at this time.
This function does exactly the same thing as quic_tls_decrypt(), except that
it does reuse its input buffer as output buffer. This is needed
to decrypt the Retry token without modifying the packet buffer which
contains this token. Indeed, this would prevent us from decryption
the packet itself as the token belong to the AEAD AAD for the packet.
This function must be used to derive strong secrets from a non pseudo-random
secret (cluster-secret setting in our case) and an IV. First it call
quic_hkdf_extract_and_expand() to do that for a temporary strong secret (tmpkey)
then two calls to quic_hkdf_expand() reusing this strong temporary secret
to derive the final strong secret and IV.
The local and remote TPs were both processed through the same function
quic_transport_params_init(). This caused the remote TPs to be
overwritten with values configured for our local usage.
Change this by reserving quic_transport_params_init() only for our local
TPs. Remote TPs are simply initialized via
quic_dflt_transport_params_cpy().
This bug could result in a connection closed in error by the client due
to a violation of its TPs. For example, curl client closed the
connection after receiving too many CONNECTION_ID due to an invalid
active_connection_id value used.
Instead of using the health-check to subscribe to read/write events, we now
rely on the conn-stream. Indeed, on the server side, the conn-stream's
endpoint is a multiplexer. Thus it seems appropriate to handle subscriptions
for read/write events the same way than for the streams. Of course, the I/O
callback function is not the same. We use srv_chk_io_cb() instead of
cs_conn_io_cb().
event_srv_chk_io() function is renamed srv_chk_io_cb() to be consistant with
the I/O callback function of connections. In addition, this function is
exported. It will be required to use the conn-stream's subscriptions.
This commit is similar to the previous one but deals with MAX_DATA for
connection-level data flow control. It uses the same function
qcc_consume_qcs() to update flow control level and generate a MAX_DATA
frame if needed.
Send MAX_STREAM_DATA frames when at least half of the allocated
flow-control has been demuxed, frame and cleared. This is necessary to
support QUIC STREAM with received data greater than a buffer.
Transcoders must use the new function qcc_consume_qcs() to empty the QCS
buffer. This will allow to monitor current flow-control level and
generate a MAX_STREAM_DATA frame if required. This frame will be emitted
via qc_io_cb().
Adjust the mechanism for MAX_STREAMS_BIDI emission. When a bidirectional
stream is removed, current flow-control level is checked. If needed, a
MAX_STREAMS_BIDI frame is generated and inserted in a new list in the
QCS instance. The new frames will be emitted at the start of qc_send().
This has no impact on the current MAX_STREAMS_BIDI behavior. However,
this mechanism is more flexible and will allow to implement quickly
MAX_STREAM_DATA/MAX_DATA emission.
Slightly change the interface for qcc_recv() between MUX and XPRT. The
MUX is now responsible to call qcc_decode_qcs(). This is cleaner as now
the XPRT does not have to deal with an extra QCS parameter and the MUX
will call qcc_decode_qcs() only if really needed.
This change is possible since there is no extra buffering for
out-of-order STREAM frames and the XPRT does not have to handle buffered
frames.
This commit is an adaptation from the following patch :

BUG/MINOR: mux-h2: update the session's idle delay before creating the stream
This should fix the incorrect timeouts present in httplog format for
QUIC requests.
First adjusted some typos in comments inside the function. Second,
change the naming of some variable to reduce confusion.
A special case has been inserted when advance is done inside a GAP block
and this block is the last of the buffer. In this case, the whole buffer
will be emptied, equivalent to a ncb_init() operation.
quic_rx_pkts_del() function removes packets from QUIC RX buffer. In most
cases, the buffer will be emptied after it. In this case, it's useful to
realign it. This will avoid future data wrapping and use of an
unnecessary junk to fill a too small contiguous space.
It is now possible to start an appctx on a thread subset. Some controls were
added here and there. It is forbidden to start a backend appctx on another
thread than the local one. If a frontend appctx is started on another thread
or a thread subset, the applet .init callback function must be defined. This
callback function is responsible to finalize the appctx startup. It can be
performed synchornously. In this case, the appctx is started on the local
thread. It is not really useful but it is valid. Or it can be performed
asynchronously. In this case, .init callback function is called when the
appctx is woken up for the first time. When this happens, the appctx
affinity is set to the current thread to be able to start the session and
the stream.
In the same way than for the tasks, the applets api was changed to be able
to start a new appctx on a thread subset. For now the feature is
disabled. Only appctx_new_here() is working. But it will be possible to
start an appctx on a specific thread or a subset via a mask.
appctx_free_on_early_error() must be used to release a freshly created
frontend appctx if an error occurred during the init stage. It takes care to
release the stream instead of the appctx if it exists. For a backend appctx,
it just calls appctx_free().
appctx_finalize_startup() may be used to finalize the frontend appctx
startup. It is responsible to create the appctx's session and the frontend
conn-stream. On error, it is the caller responsibility to release the
appctx. However, the session is released if it was created. On success, if
an error is encountered in the caller function, the stream must be released
instead of the appctx.
This function should ease the init stage when new appctx is created.
It is just a helper function that call the .init applet callback function,
if it exists. This will simplify a bit the init stage when a new applet is
started. For now, this callback function is only used when a new service is
started.
Applets were moved at the same level than multiplexers. Thus, gradually,
applets code is changed to be less dependent from the stream. With this
commit, the frontend appctx are ready to own the session. It means a
frontend appctx will be responsible to release the session.
When HAProxy is linked to an OpenSSLv3 library, this option can be used
to load a provider during init. You can specify multiple ssl-provider
options, which will be loaded in the order they appear. This does not
prevent OpenSSL from parsing its own configuration file in which some
other providers might be specified.
A linked list of the providers loaded from the configuration file is
kept so that all those providers can be unloaded during cleanup. The
providers loaded directly by OpenSSL will be freed by OpenSSL.
The "http-restrict-req-hdr-names" option can now be set to restrict allowed
characters in the request header names to the "[a-zA-Z0-9-]" charset.
Idea of this option is to not send header names with non-alphanumeric or
hyphen character. It is especially important for FastCGI application because
all those characters are converted to underscore. For instance,
"X-Forwarded-For" and "X_Forwarded_For" are both converted to
"HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR". So, header names can be mixed up by FastCGI
applications. And some HAProxy rules may be bypassed by mangling header
names. In addition, some non-HTTP compliant servers may incorrectly handle
requests when header names contain characters ouside the "[a-zA-Z0-9-]"
charset.
When this option is set, the policy must be specify:
* preserve: It disables the filtering. It is the default mode for HTTP
proxies with no FastCGI application configured.
* delete: It removes request headers with a name containing a character
outside the "[a-zA-Z0-9-]" charset. It is the default mode for
HTTP backends with a configured FastCGI application.
* reject: It rejects the request with a 403-Forbidden response if it
contains a header name with a character outside the
"[a-zA-Z0-9-]" charset.
The option is evaluated per-proxy and after http-request rules evaluation.
This patch may be backported to avoid any secuirty issue with FastCGI
application (so as far as 2.2).
quic_rx_strm_frm type was used to buffered STREAM frames received out of
order. Now the MUX is able to deal directly with these frames and
buffered it inside its ncbuf.
Rx has been simplified since the conversion of buffer to a ncbuf. The
old buffer can now be removed. The frms tree is also removed. It was
used previously to stored out-of-order received STREAM frames. Now the
MUX is able to buffer them directly into the ncbuf.
Add a ncbuf for data reception on qcs. Thanks to this, the MUX is able
to buffered all received frame directly into the buffer. Flow control
parameters will be used to ensure there is never an overflow.
This change will simplify Rx path with the future deletion of acked
frames tree previously used for frames out of order.
Redefine the initial local flow-control to enforce by us. Use bufsize as
the maximum offset allowed to be received.
This change is part of an adjustement on the Rx path. Mux buffer will be
converted to a ncbuf. Flow-control parameters must ensure that we never
receive a frame larger than the buffer. With this, all received frames
will be stored in the MUX buffer.
The two functions became exact copies since there's no more special case
for the appctx owner. Let's merge them into a single one, that simplifies
the code.
This one is the pointer to the conn_stream which is always in the
endpoint that is always present in the appctx, thus it's not needed.
This patch removes it and replaces it with appctx_cs() instead. A
few occurences that were using __cs_strm(appctx->owner) were moved
directly to appctx_strm() which does the equivalent.
The former takes a conn_stream still attached to a valid appctx,
which also complicates the termination of the applet. Instead, let's
pass the appctx which already points to the endpoint, this allows us
to properly detach the conn_stream before the call, which is cleaner
and safer.
The mux ->detach() function currently takes a conn_stream. This causes
an awkward situation where the caller cs_detach_endp() has to partially
mark it as released but not completely so that ->detach() finds its
endpoint and context, and it cannot be done later since it's possible
that ->detach() deletes the endpoint. As such the endpoint link between
the conn_stream and the mux's stream is in a transient situation while
we'd like it to be clean so that the mux's ->detach() code can call any
regular function it wants that knows the regular semantics of the
relation between the CS and the endpoint.
A better approach consists in slightly modifying the detach() API to
better match the reality, which is that the endpoint is detached but
still alive and that it's the only part the function is interested in.
As such, this patch modifies the function to take an endpoint there,
and by analogy (or simplicity) does the same for ->attach(), even
though it looks less important there since we're always attaching an
endpoint to a conn_stream anyway. It is possible that in the future
the API could evolve to use more endpoints that provide a bit more
flexibility in the API, but at this point we don't need to go further.
Muxes and applets need to have both a pointer to the endpoint and to the
conn_stream. It would seem more natural that they only have a pointer to
the endpoint (that is always there) and that this one has an optional
pointer to the conn_stream. This would reduce the number of elements to
manipulate in lower level code. In addition, the conn_stream is not much
used from the lower layers (wake and exceptional events mostly).
Wherever we need to report an error, we have an even easier access to
the endpoint than the conn_stream. Let's first adjust the API to use
the endpoint and rename the function accordingly to cs_ep_set_error().
A new function ncb_advance() is implemented. This is used to advance the
buffer head pointer. This will consume the front data while forming a
new gap at the end for future data.
On success NCB_RET_OK is returned. The operation can be rejected if a
too small new gap is formed in front of the buffer.
Define three different ways to proceed insertion. This configures how
overlapping data is treated.
- NCB_ADD_PRESERVE : in this mode, old data are kept during insertion.
- NCB_ADD_OVERWRT : new data will overwrite old ones.
- NCB_ADD_COMPARE : this mode adds a new test in check stage. The
overlapping old and new data must be identical or else the insertion
is not conducted. An error NCB_RET_DATA_REJ is used in this case.
The mode is specified with a new argument to ncb_add() function.
Implement a new function ncb_add() to insert data in ncbuf. This
operation is conducted in two stages. First, a simulation will be run to
ensure that insertion can be proceeded. If a gap is formed, either
before or after the new data, it must be big enough to store its header,
or else the insertion is aborted.
After this check stage, the insertion is conducted block by block with
the function pair ncb_fill_data_blk()/ncb_fill_gap_blk().
A new type ncb_ret is used as a return value. For the moment, only
success or gap-size error is used. It is planned to add new error types
in the future when insertion will be extended.
Relax the constraint for gap storage when this is the last block.
ncb_blk API functions will consider that if a gap is stored near the end
of the buffer, without the space to store its header, the gap will cover
entirely the buffer end.
For these special cases, the gap size/data size are not write/read
inside the gap to prevent an overflow. Such a gap is designed in
functions as "reduced gap" and will be flagged with the value
NCB_BK_F_FIN.
This should reduce the rejection on future add operation when receiving
data in-order. Without reduced gap handling, an insertion would be
rejected if it covers only partially the last buffer bytes, which can be
a very common case.
Implement two new functions to report the total data stored accross the
whole buffer and the data stored at a specific offset until the next gap
or the buffer end.
To facilitate implementation of these new functions and also future
add/delete operations, a new abstraction is introduced : ncb_blk. This
structure represents a block of either data or gap in the buffer. It
simplifies operation when moving forward in the buffer. The first buffer
block can be retrieved via ncb_blk_first(buf). The block at a specific
offset is accessed via ncb_blk_find(buf, off).
This abstraction is purely used in functions but not stored in the ncbuf
structure per-se. This is necessary to keep the minimal memory
footprint.
Define the new type ncbuf. It can be used as a buffer with
non-contiguous data and wrapping support.
To reduce as much as possible the memory footprint, size of data and
gaps are stored in the gaps themselves. This put some limitation on the
buffer usage. A reserved space is present just before the head to store
the size of the first data block. Also, add and delete operations will
be constrained to ensure minimal gap sizes are preserved.
The sizes stored in the gaps are represented by a custom type named
ncb_sz_t. This type is a typedef to easily change it : this has a
direct impact on the maximum buffer size (MAX(ncb_sz_t) - sizeof(ncb_sz_t))
and the minimal gap sizes (sizeof(ncb_sz_t) * 2)).
Currently, it is set to uint32_t.
Add send_stateless_reset() to send a stateless reset packet. It prepares
a packet to build a 1-RTT packet with quic_stateless_reset_token_cpy()
to copy a stateless reset token derived from the cluster secret with
the destination connection ID received as salt.
Also add QUIC_EV_STATELESS_RST new trace event to at least to have a trace
of the connection which are reset.
This function will have to call another one from quic_tls.[ch] soon.
As we do not want to include quic_tls.h from xprt_quic.h because
quic_tls.h already includes xprt_quic.h, let's moving it into
xprt_quic.c.
This is a wrapper function around OpenSSL HKDF API functions to
use the "extract-then-expand" HKDF mode as defined by rfc5869.
This function will be used to derived stateless reset tokens
from secrets ("cluster-secret" conf. keyword) and CIDs (as salts).
It could be usefull to set a ASCII secret which could be used for different
usages. For instance, it will be used to derive QUIC stateless reset tokens.
A ->time_received new member is added to quic_rx_packet to store the time the
packet are received. ->largest_time_received is added the the packet number
space structure to store this timestamp for the packet with a new largest
packet number to be acknowledged. QUIC_FL_PKTNS_NEW_LARGEST_PN new flag is
added to mark a packet number space as having to acknowledged a packet wih a
new largest packet number. In this case, the packet number space ack delay
must be recalculated.
Add quic_compute_ack_delay_us() function to compute the ack delay from the value
of the time a packet was received. Used only when a packet with a new largest
packet number.
The call to quic_dflt_transport_params_cpy() is already first done by
quic_transport_params_init() which is a good thing. But this function was also
called each time we parsed a transport parameters with quic_transport_param_decode(),
re-initializing to default values some of them. The transport parameters concerned
by this bug are the following:
- max_udp_payload_size
- ack_delay_exponent
- max_ack_delay
- active_connection_id_limit
So, let's remove this call to quic_dflt_transport_params_cpy() which has nothing
to do here!
As we do not have any task to be wake up by the poller after sendto() error,
we add an sendto() error counter to the quic_conn struct.
Dump its values from qc_send_ppkts().
This patch adds a lock on the struct dgram_conn to ensure
that an other thread cannot trash a fd or alter its status
while the current thread processing it on for send/receive/connect
operations.
Starting with the 2.4 version this could cause a crash when a DNS
request is failing, setting the FD of the dgram structure to -1. If the
dgram structure is reused after that, a read access to fdtab[-1] is
attempted. The crash was only triggered when compiled with ASAN.
In previous versions the concurrency issue also exists but is less
likely to crash.
This patch must be backported until v2.4 and should be
adapt for v < 2.4.
The statefile before this patch can only parse lines within 512
characters, now as we made the value to 2000, it can support a
line of length of 2kB.
This patch fixes GitHub issue #1530.
It should be backported to all stable releases.
As was first reported by Ilya in issue #1513, compiling with gcc-12
adds warnings about size 0 around each BUG_ON() call due to the
ABORT_NOW() macro that tries to dereference pointer value 1.
The problem is known, seems to be complex inside gcc and could only
be worked around for now by adjusting a pointer limit so that the
warning still catches NULL derefs in the first page but not other
values commonly used in kernels and boot loaders:
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=gcc.git;h=91f7d7e1b
It's described in more details here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=104657https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=99578https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=103768
And some projects had to work around it using various approaches,
some of which are described in the bugs reports above, plus another
one here:
https://mail.coreboot.org/hyperkitty/list/seabios@seabios.org/thread/HLK3BHP2T3FN6FZ46BIPIK3VD5FOU74Z/
In haproxy we can hide it by hiding the pointer in a DISGUISE() macro,
but this forces the pointer to be loaded into a register, so that
register is lost precisely where we want to get the maximum of them.
In our case we purposely use a low-value non-null pointer because:
- it's mandatory that this value fits within an unmapped page and
only the lowest one has this property
- we really want to avoid register loads for the address, as these
will be lost and will complicate the bug analysis, and they tend
to be used for large addresses (i.e. instruction length limit).
- the compiler may decide to optimize away the null deref when it
sees it (seen in the past already)
As such, the current workaround merged in gcc-12 is not effective for
us.
Another approach consists in using pragmas to silently disable
-Warray-bounds and -Wnull-dereference only for this part. The problem
is that pragmas cannot be placed into macros.
The resulting solution consists in defining a forced-inlined function
only to trigger the crash, and surround the dereference with pragmas,
themselves conditionned to gcc >= 5 since older versions don't
understand them (but they don't complain on the dereference at least).
This way the code remains the same even at -O0, without the stack
pointer being modified nor any address register being modified on
common archs (x86 at least). A variation could have been to rely on
__builtin_trap() but it's not everywhere and it behaves differently
on different platforms (undefined opcode or a nasty abort()) while
the segv remains uniform and effective.
This may need to be backported to older releases once users start to
complain about gcc-12 breakage.
The obsolete stats states STAT_ST_* were marked as deprecated with recent
commit 6ef1648dc ("CLEANUP: stats: rename the stats state values an mark
the old ones deprecated"), except that this feature requires gcc 6 and
above. Let's use the macro that depends on this condition instead.
The issue appeared on 2.6-dev9 so no backport is needed.
Gcc 6 and above support placing an attribute on an enum's value. This
is convenient for marking some values as deprecated. We just need the
macro because older versions fail to parse __attribute__() there.
On Linux the interval before starting to send TCP keep-alive packets
is defined by TCP_KEEPIDLE. MacOS has an equivalent with TCP_KEEPIDLE,
which also uses seconds as a unit, so it's possible to simply remap the
definition of TCP_KEEPIDLE to TCP_KEEPALIVE there and get it to seamlessly
work. The other settings (interval and count) are not present, though.
The STAT_ST_* values have been abused by virtually every applet and CLI
keyword handler, and this must not continue as it's a source of bugs and
of overly complicated code.
This patch renames the states to STAT_STATE_*, and keeps the previous
enum while marking each entry as deprecated. This should be sufficient to
catch out-of-tree code that might rely on them and to let them know what
to do with that.
Now that the CLI's print context is alone in the appctx, it's possible
to refine the appctx's ctx layout so that the cli part matches exactly
a regular svcctx, and as such move the CLI context into an svcctx like
other applets. External code will still build and work because the
struct cli perfectly maps onto the struct cli_print_ctx that's located
into svc.storage. This is of course only to make a smooth transition
during 2.6 and will disappear immediately after.
A tiny change had to be applied to the opentracing addon which performs
direct accesses to the CLI's err pointer in its own print function. The
rest uses the standard cli_print_* which were the only ones that needed
a small change.
The whole "ctx.cli" struct could be tagged as deprecated so that any
possibly existing external code that relies on it will get build
warnings, and the comments in the struct are pretty clear about the
way to fix it, and the lack of future of this old API.
Just like for the TCP service, let's move the context away from
appctx.ctx. A new struct hlua_http_ctx was defined, reserved in
hlua_applet_http_init() and used everywhere else. Similarly, the
task dump code will no more report decoded stack traces in case
these services would be involved. That may be solved later.
The use-service mechanism for Lua in TCP mode relies on the
hlua_tcp storage in appctx->ctx. We can move its definition to
hlua.c and simply use appctx_reserve_svcctx() to reserve and access
the stoage. One tiny side effect is that the task dump used in panics
will not show anymore the Lua call stack in its trace. For this a
better API is needed from the Lua code to expose a function that does
the job from an appctx.
The Lua cosockets were using appctx.ctx.hlua_cosocket. Let's move this
to a local definition of "hlua_csk_ctx" in hlua.c, which is allocated
from the appctx by hlua_socket_new(). There's a notable change which is
that, while previously the xref link with the peer was established with
the appctx, it's now in the hlua_csk_ctx. This one must then hold a
pointer to the appctx. The code was adjusted accordingly, and now that
part of the code doesn't use the appctx.ctx anymore.
The context was moved to a local definition in the cache code, and
there's nothing specific to the cache anymore in the appctx. The
struct is stored into the appctx's storage area via the svcctx.
This one has been misused for a while as well, it's time to deprecate it
since we don't use it anymore. It will be removed in 2.7 and for now is
only marked as deprecated. Since we need to guarantee that it's zeroed
before starting any applet or CLI command, it was moved into an anonymous
union where its sibling is not marked as deprecated so that we can
continue to initialize it without triggering a warning.
If you found this commit after a bisect session you initiated to figure
why you got some build warnings and don't know what to do, have a look
at the code that deals with the "show fd", "show sess" or "show servers"
commands, as it's supposed to be self-explanatory about the tiny changes
to apply to your code to port it. If you find APPLET_MAX_SVCCTX to be
too small for your use case, either kindly ask for a tiny extension
(and try to get your code merged), or just use a pool.
The generic context variables p0/p1/p2, i0/i1, o0/o1 have been abused
and causing trouble for too long, it's time to remove them now that
they are not used anymore.
However the risk that external code still uses them is not nul and we
had not warned before about their removal. Let's mark them deprecated
in 2.6 and removed in 2.7. This will let external code continue to work
(as well as it could if it misuses them), with a strong encouragement
on updating it.

The httpclient already uses its own pointer and only used to store this
single pointer into the appctx.ctx field. Let's just move it to the
svcctx and remove this entry from the appctx union.
The ring watch flags (wait, seek end) were dangerously passed via ctx.cli.i0
from "show buf" in sink.c:cli_parse_show_events(), or implicitly reset in
"show errors". That's very unconvenient, difficult to follow, and prone to
short-term breakage.
Let's pass an extra argument to ring_attach_cli() to take these flags, now
defined in ring-t.h as RING_WF_*, and let the function set them itself
where appropriate (still ctx.cli.i0 for now).
Instead of having a struct that contains a single pointer in the appctx
context, let's directly use the generic context pointer and get rid of
the now unused sft.ptr entry.
These two commands use distinct parse/release functions but a common
iohandler, thus they need to keep the same context. It was created
under the name "commit_cacrlfile_ctx" and holds a large part of the
pointers (6) and the ca_type field that helps distinguish between
the two commands for the I/O handler. It looks like some of these
fields could have been merged since apparently the CA part only
uses *cafile* and the CRL part *crlfile*, while both old and new
are of type cafile_entry and set only for each type. This could
probably even simplify some parts of the code that tries to use
the correct field.
These fields were the last ones to be migrated thus the appctx's
ssl context could finally be removed.
The command doesn't really need any storage since there's only a parser,
but since it used this context, there might have been plans for extension,
so better continue with a persistent one. Only old_ckchs, new_ckchs, and
path were being used from the appctx's ssl context. There ones moved to
the local definition, and the two former ones were removed from the appctx
since not used anymore.
This command only really uses old_ckchs, cur_ckchs and the index
in which the transaction was stored. The new structure "show_cert_ctx"
only has these 3 fields, and the now unused "cur_ckchs" and "index"
could be removed from the shared ssl context.
Now this command doesn't share any context anymore with "show cafile"
nor with the other commands. The previous "cur_cafile_entry" field from
the applet's ssl context was removed as not used anymore. Everything was
moved to show_crlfile_ctx which only has 3 fields.
Saying that the layout and usage of the various variables in the ssl
applet context is a mess would be an understatement. It's very hard
to know what command uses what fields, even after having moved away
from the mix of cli and ssl.
Let's extract the parts used by "show cafile" into their own structure.
Only the "show_all" field would be removed from the ssl ctx, the other
fields are still shared with other commands.
This context is used by CLI keywords registered by Lua. We can take
it out of the appctx and use the generic command context allocation so
that the appctx doesn't have to declare a specific one anymore. The
context is created during parsing.
This makes use of the generic command context allocation so that the
appctx doesn't have to declare a specific one anymore. The context is
created during parsing (both in the CLI and HTTP).
The change looks large but it's particularly mechanical. The context
initialization appears in stats.c and http_ana.c. The context is used
in stats.c and resolvers.c since "show stat resolvers" points there.
That's the reason why the definition moved to stats.h. "show info"
and "show stat" continue to share the same state definition for now.
Nothing else was modified.
This makes use of the generic command context allocation so that the
appctx doesn't have to declare a specific one anymore. The context is
created during parsing. The code also uses st2 which deserves being
addressed in separate commit.
This makes use of the generic command context allocation so that the
appctx doesn't have to declare a specific one anymore. The context is
created during parsing. Many commands, including pure parsers, use this
context but that's not a problem as it's designed to be used this way.
Due to this, many lines are changed but that's in fact a replacement of
"appctx->ctx.map" with "ctx->". Note that the code also uses st2 which
deserves being addressed in separate commit.

This makes use of the generic command context allocation so that the
appctx doesn't have to declare a specific one anymore. The context is
created during parsing.
The code still has room for improvement, such as in the "flags" field
where bits are hard-coded, but they weren't modified.
This makes use of the generic command context allocation so that the
appctx doesn't have to declare a specific one anymore. The context is
created during parsing.
Instead of using existing fields and having to put keyword-specific
contexts in the applet definition, let's have the appctx provide a
generic storage area that's currently large enough for existing CLI
commands and small applets, and a function to allocate that storage.
The function will be responsible for verifying that the requested size
fits in the area so that the caller doesn't need to add specific checks;
it is validated during development as this size is static and will
not change at runtime. In addition the caller doesn't even need to
free() the area since it's part of an existing context. For the
caller's convenience, a context pointer "svcctx" for the command is
also provided so that the allocated area can be placed there (or
possibly any other one in case a larger area is needed).
The struct's layout has been temporarily complicated by adding one
level of anonymous union on top of the "ctx" one. This will allow us
to preserve "ctx" during 2.6 for compatibility with possible external
code and get rid of it in 2.7. This explains why the diff extends to
the whole "ctx" union, but a "git show -b" shows that only one extra
layer was added. In order to make both the svcctx pointer and its
storage accessible without further enlarging the appctx structure,
both svcctx and the storage share the same storage as the ctx part.
This is done by having them placed in the union with a protected
overlapping area for svcctx, for which a shadow member is also
present in the storage area:
union {
void* svcctx; // variable accessed by services
struct {
void *shadow; // shadow of svcctx;
char storage[]; // where most services store their data
};
union { // older commands store here and ignore svcctx
...
} ctx;
};
I.e. new applications will use appctx->svcctx while older ones will be
able to continue to use appctx->ctx.*
The whole area (including the pointer's context) is zeroed before any
applet is initialized, and before CLI keyword processor's first invocation,
as it is an important part of the existing keyword processors, which makes
CLI keywords effectively behave like applets.
The "show ssl cert" command mixes some generic pointers from the
"ctx.cli" struct with context-specific ones from "ctx.ssl" while both
are in a union. Amazingly, despite the use of both p0 and i0 to store
respectively a pointer to the current ckchs and a transaction id, there
was no overlap with the other pointers used during these operations,
but should these fields be reordered or slightly updated this will break.
Comments were added above the faulty functions to indicate which fields
they are using.
This needs to be backported to 2.5.
The "show ssl ca-file <name>" command mixes some generic pointers from
the "ctx.cli" struct and context-specific ones from "ctx.ssl" while both
are in a union. The i0 integer used to store the current ca_index overlaps
with new_crlfile_entry which is thus harmless for now but is at the mercy
of any reordering or addition of these fields. Let's add dedicated fields
into the ssl structure for this.
Comments were added on top of the affected functions to indicate what they
use.
This needs to be backported to 2.5.
The "show ca-file" and "show crl-file" commands mix some generic pointers
from the "ctx.cli" struct and context-specific ones from "ctx.ssl" while
both are in a union. It's fortunate that the p0 pointer in use is located
immediately before the first one used (it overlaps with next_ckchi_link,
and old_cafile_entry is safe). But should these fields be reordered or
slightly updated this will break.
Comments were added on top of the affected functions to indicate what they
use.
This needs to be backported to 2.5.
Try to create a "default" resolvers section at startup, but does not
display any error nor warning. This section is initialized using the
/etc/resolv.conf of the system.
This is opportunistic and with no guarantee that it will work (but it should
on most systems).
This is useful for the httpclient as it allows to use the DNS resolver
without any configuration in most of the cases.
The function is called from the httpclient_pre_check() function to
ensure than we tried to create the section before trying to initiate the
httpclient. But it is also called from the resolvers.c to ensure the
section is created when the httpclient init was disabled.
In flags set on the endpoints, some are set by endpoints itself and some are
set by the app layer. To help flags manipulations, 2 masks have been
added. The first one, CS_EP_ENDP_MASK, for all flags that an endpoint may
set. The other one, CS_EP_APP_MASK, for flags that the app layer may set.
This patch is mandatory for the next commit.
This is required when the retransmitted frame types when the mux is released.
We add a counter for the number of streams which were opened or closed by the mux.
After the mux has been released, we can rely on this counter to know if the STREAM
frames are retransmitted ones or not.
That's similar to what was done for conn_streams and connections. The
flags were only set exactly when the relevant pointers were allocated,
so better test the pointer than the flag and stop setting the flag.
Just like for the conn_stream, now that these addresses are dynamically
allocated, there is no single case where the pointer is set without the
corresponding flag, and the flag is used as a permission to dereference
the pointer. Let's just replace the test of the flag with a test of the
pointer and remove all flag assignment. This makes the code clearer
(especially in "if" conditions) and saves the need for future code to
think about properly setting the flag after setting the pointer.
These flags indicate that the ->src or ->dst field in the conn_stream
is not null, which is something the caller already sees (and even tests
from the two sets of functions that set them). They maintain some burden
because an agent trying to set a source or destination has to manually
set the flags in addition to setting the pointer, so they provide no
value anymore, let's drop them.
This flag is no longer needed now that it must always match the presence
of a destination address on the backend conn_stream. Worse, before previous
patch, if it were to be accidently removed while the address is present, it
could result in a leak of that address since alloc_dst_address() would first
be called to flush it.
Its usage has a long history where addresses were stored in an area shared
with the connection, but as this is no longer the case, there's no reason
for putting this burden onto application-level code that should not focus
on setting obscure flags.
The only place where that made a small difference is in the dequeuing code
in case of queue redistribution, because previously the code would first
clear the flag, and only later when trying to deal with the queue, would
release the address. It's not even certain whether there would exist a
code path going to connect_server() without calling pendconn_dequeue()
first (e.g. retries on queue timeout maybe?).
Now the pendconn_dequeue() code will rely on SF_ASSIGNED to decide to
clear and release the address, since that flag is always set while in
a server's queue, and its clearance implies that we don't want to keep
the address. At least it remains consistent and there's no more risk of
leaking it.
If the request channel buffer is full, H3 demuxing must be interrupted
on the stream until some read is performed. This condition is reported
if the HTX stream buffer qcs.rx.app_buf is full.
In this case, qcs instance is marked with a new flag QC_SF_DEM_FULL.
This flag cause the H3 demuxing to be interrupted. It is cleared when
the HTX buffer is read by the conn-stream layer through rcv_buf
operation.
When the flag is cleared, the MUX tasklet is woken up. However, as MUX
iocb does not treat Rx for the moment, this is useless. It must be fix
to prevent possible freeze on POST transfers.
In practice, for the moment the HTX buffer is never full as the current
Rx code is limited by the quic-conn receive buffer size and the
incomplete flow-control implementation. So for now this patch is not
testable under the current conditions.
It seems this multiplier ended up in oblivion. Indeed a multiplier must be
applied to the loss delay expressed as an RTT multiplier: 9/8.
So, some packets were detected as lost too soon, leading to be retransmitted too
early!
A crash is possible under such circumtances:
- The congestion window is drastically reduced to its miniaml value
when a quic listener is experiencing extreme packet loss ;
- we enqueue several STREAM frames to be resent and some of them could not be
transmitted ;
- some of the still in flight are acknowledged and trigger the
stream memory releasing ;
- when we come back to send the remaing STREAM frames, haproxy
crashes when it tries to build them.
To fix this issue, we mark the STREAM frame as lost when detected as lost.
Then a lookup if performed for the stream the STREAM frames are attached
to before building them. They are released if the stream is no more available
or the data range of the frame is consumed.
Modify qc_send_app_pkt() to distinguish the case where it sends new data
against the case where it sends old data during probing retransmissions.
We add <old_data> boolean parameter to this function to do so. The mux
never directly send old data when probing retransmissions are needed by
the connection.
We want to be able to resend frames from list of frames during handshakes to
resend datagrams with the same frames as during the first transmissions.
This leads to decrease drasctically the chances of frame fragmentation due to
variable lengths of the packet fields. Furthermore the frames were not duplicated
when retransmitted from a packet to another one. This must be the case only during
packet loss dectection.
qc_dup_pkt_frms() is there to duplicate the frames from an input list to an output
list. A distinction is made between STREAM frames and the other ones because we
can rely on the "acknowledged offset" the aim of which is to track the number
of bytes which were acknowledged from TX STREAM frames.
qc_release_frm() in addition to release the frame passed as parameter, also mark
the duplicate STREAM frames as acknowledeged.
qc_send_hdshk_pkts() is the qc_send_app_pkts() counterpart to send datagrams from
at most two list of frames to be able to coalesced packets from two different
packet number spaces
qc_dgrams_retransmit() is there to probe the peer with datagrams depending on the
need of the packet number spaces which must be flag with QUIC_FL_PKTNS_PROBE_NEEDED
by the PTO timer task (qc_process_timer()).
Add QUIC_FL_CONN_RETRANS_NEEDED connection flag definition to mark a quic_conn
struct as needing a retranmission.
Add QUIC_FL_PKTNS_PROBE_NEEDED to mark a packet number space as needing a
datagram probing.
Set these flags from process_timer() to trigger datagram probings.
Do not initiate anymore datagrams probing from any quic encryption level.
This will be done from the I/O handlers (quic_conn_io_cb() during handshakes and
quic_conn_app_io_cb() after handshakes).
Add QUIC_FL_TX_PACKET_COALESCED flag to mark a TX packet as coalesced with others
to build a datagram.
Ensure we do not directly retransmit frames from such coalesced packets. They must
be retransmitted from their packet number spaces to avoid duplications.
We want to track the frames which have been duplicated during retransmissions so
that to avoid uselessly retransmitting frames which would already have been
acknowledged. ->origin new member is there to store the frame from which a copy
was done, ->reflist is a list to store the frames which are copies.
Also ensure all the frames are zeroed and that their ->reflist list member is
initialized.
Add QUIC_FL_TX_FRAME_ACKED flag definition to mark a TX frame as acknowledged.
Define 2 new callback for qcc_app_ops : attach and detach. They are
called when a qcs instance is respectively allocated and freed. If
implemented, they can allocate a custom context stored in the new
abstract field ctx of qcs.
For now, h3 and hq-interop does not use these new callbacks. They will
be soon implemented by the h3 layer to allocate a context used for
stateful demuxing.
This change is required to support the demuxing of H3 frames bigger than
a buffer.
Improve the reception for STREAM frames. In qcc_recv(), if the frame is
bigger than the remaining space in rx buffer, do not reject it wholly.
Instead, copy as much data as possible. The rest of the data is
buffered.
This is necessary to handle H3 frames bigger than a buffer. The H3 code
does not demux until the frame is complete or the buffer is full.
Without this, the transfer on payload larger than the Rx buffer can
rapidly freeze.
Add new qcs fields to count the sum of bytes received for each stream.
This is necessary to enforce flow-control for reception on the peer.
For the moment, the implementation is partial. No MAX_STREAM_DATA or
FLOW_CONTROL_ERROR are emitted. BUG_ON statements are here as a
remainder.
This means that for the moment we do not support POST payloads greater
that the initial max-stream-data announced (256k currently).
At least, we now ensure that we never buffer a frame which overflows the
flow-control limit : this ensures that the memory consumption per stream
should stay under control.
qcc_get_stream() was used when qcs and qc_stream_desc shared the same
node-tree. This is not the case anymore since
e4301da5ed
MINOR: quic-stream: use distinct tree nodes for quic stream and qcs
Now this function is broken as the qcc tree only contains qcs.
Thankfully it is unused so it can be removed without impact.
Low footprint client machines may not have enough memory to download a
complete 16KB TLS record at once. With the new option the maximum
record size can be defined on the server side.
Note: Before limiting the the record size on the server side, a client should
consider using the TLS Maximum Fragment Length Negotiation Extension defined
in RFC6066.
This patch fixes GitHub issue #1679.
If the "close-spread-time" option is set to "infinite", active
connection closing during a soft-stop can be disabled. The 'connection:
close' header or the GOAWAY frame will not be added anymore to the
server's response and active connections will only be closed once the
clients disconnect. Idle connections will not be closed all at once when
the soft-stop starts anymore, and each idle connection will follow its
own timeout based on the multiple timeouts set in the configuration (as
is the case during regular execution).
This feature request was described in GitHub issue #1614.
This patch should be backported to 2.5. It depends on 'MEDIUM: global:
Add a "close-spread-time" option to spread soft-stop on time window'.
While weak symbols were finally fixed with commit fb1b6f5bc ("BUILD:
compiler: use a more portable set of asm(".weak") statements"), it
was an error to think that initcall symbols were also weak. They must
not be and they're only global. The reason is that any externally
linked code loaded as a .so would drop its weak symbols when being
loaded, hence its initcalls that may contain various function
registration calls.
The ambiguity came from the fact that we initially reused the initcall's
HA_GLOBL macro for OSX then generalized it, then turned it to a choice
between .globl and .weak based on the OS, while in fact we needed a
macro to define weak symbols.
Let's rename the macro to HA_WEAK() to make it clear it's only for weak
symbols, and redefine HA_GLOBL() that initcall needs.
This will need to be backported wherever the commit above is backported
(at least 2.5 for now).
Instead of seeing each location manipulate the fcntl() themselves and
often forget to check previous flags, let's centralize the functions to
do this. It also allows to drop fcntl.h from most call places and will
ease the adoption of different OS-specific mechanisms if needed. Note
that the fd_set_nonblock() function purposely doesn't check the previous
flags as it's meant to be used on new FDs only.
__comp_fetch_init() only presets the maxzlibmem, and only when both
USE_ZLIB and DEFAULT_MAXZLIBMEM are set. The intent is to preset a
default value to protect the system against excessive memory usage
when no setting is set by the user.
Nowadays the entry in the global struct is always there so there's no
point anymore in passing via a constructor to possibly set this value.
Let's go the cleaner way by always presetting DEFAULT_MAXZLIBMEM to 0
in defaults.h unless these conditions are met, and always assigning it
instead of pre-setting the entry to zero. This is more straightforward
and removes some ifdefs and the last constructor. In addition, now the
setting has a chance of being found.
On some systems, the hard limit for ulimit -n may be huge, in the order
of 1 billion, and using this to automatically compute maxconn doesn't
work as it requires way too much memory. Users tend to hard-code maxconn
but that's not convenient to manage deployments on heterogenous systems,
nor when porting configs to developers' machines. The ulimit-n parameter
doesn't work either because it forces the limit. What most users seem to
want (and it makes sense) is to respect the system imposed limits up to
a certain value and cap this value. This is exactly what fd-hard-limit
does.
This addresses github issue #1622.
Almost all of our hash-based LB algorithms are implemented as special
cases of something that can now be achieved using sample expressions,
and some of them have adopted some options to adapt their behavior in
ways that could also be achieved using converters.
There are users who want to hash other parameters that are combined
into variables, and who set headers from these values and use
"balance hdr(name)" for this.
Instead of constantly implementing specific options and having users
hack around when they want a real hash, let's implement a native hash
mode that applies to a standard sample expression. This way, any
fetchable element (including variables) may be used to construct the
hash, even modified by any converter if desired.
This function's purpose is to wake up either a local or remote task,
bypassing the tree-based run queue. It is meant for fast wakeups that
are supposed to be equivalent to those used with tasklets, i.e. a task
had to pause some processing and can complete (typically a resource
becomes available again). In all cases, it's important to keep in mind
that the task must have gone through the regular scheduling path before
being blocked, otherwise the task priorities would be ignored.
The reason for this is that some wakeups are massively inter-thread
(e.g. server queues), that these inter-thread wakeups cause a huge
contention on the shared runqueue lock. A user reported 47% CPU spent
in process_runnable_tasks with only 32 threads and 80k requests in
queues. With this mechanism, purely one-to-one wakeups can avoid
taking the lock thanks to the mt_list used for the shared tasklet
queue.
Right now the shared tasklet queue moves everything to the TL_URGENT
queue. It's not dramatic but it would seem better to have a new shared
list dedicated to tasks, and that would deliver into TL_NORMAL, for an
even better fairness. This could be improved in the future.
This adds a call to function <fct> to the list of functions to be called at
the step just before the configuration validity checks. This is useful when you
need to create things like it would have been done during the configuration
parsing and where the initialization should continue in the configuration
check.
It could be used for example to generate a proxy with multiple servers using
the configuration parser itself. At this step the trash buffers are allocated.
Threads are not yet started so no protection is required. The function is
expected to return non-zero on success, or zero on failure. A failure will make
the process emit a succinct error message and immediately exit.
A conn-stream is never detached from an endpoint or an application alone,
except on a reset. Thus, to avoid any error, these functions are now
private. And cs_destroy() function is added to destroy a conn-stream. This
function is called when a stream is released, on the front and back
conn-streams, and when a health-check is finished.
This function does not release the applet but only call the applet release
callback. It is equivalent to cs_conn_shut() but for applets. Thus the
function is renamed cs_applet_shut().
These functions don't close the connection but only perform shutdown for
reads and writes at the mux level. It is a bit ambiguous. Thus,
cs_conn_close() is renamed cs_conn_shut() and cs_conn_drain_and_close() is
renamed cs_conn_drain_and_shut(). These both functions rely on
cs_conn_shutw() and cs_conn_shutr().
Starting from OpenSSLv3, providers are at the core of cryptography
functions. Depending on the provider used, the way the SSL
functionalities work could change. This new 'show ssl providers' CLI
command allows to show what providers were loaded by the SSL library.
This is required because the provider configuration is exclusively done
in the OpenSSL configuration file (/usr/local/ssl/openssl.cnf for
instance).
A new line is also added to the 'haproxy -vv' output containing the same
information.
Complete qc_send function. After having processed each qcs emission, it
will now retry send on qcs where transfer can continue. This is useful
when qc_stream_desc buffer is full and there is still data present in
qcs buf.
To implement this, each eligible qcs is inserted in a new list
<qcc.send_retry_list>. This is done on send notification from the
transport layer through qcc_streams_sent_done(). Retry emission until
send_retry_list is empty or the transport layer cannot proceed more
data.
Several send operations are now called on two different places. Thus a
new _qc_send_qcs() function is defined to factorize the code.
This change should maximize the throughput during QUIC transfers.
MUX streams can now allocate multiple buffers for sending. quic-conn is
responsible to limit the total count of allowed allocated buffers. A
counter is stored in the new field <stream_buf_count>.
For the moment, the value is hardcoded to 30.
On stream buffer allocation failure, the qcc MUX is flagged with
QC_CF_CONN_FULL. The MUX is then woken up as soon as a buffer is freed,
most notably on ACK reception.
Acknowledge of STREAM has been complexified with the introduction of
stream multi buffers. Two functions are executing roughly the same set
of instructions in xprt_quic.c.
To simplify this, move the code complexity in a new function
qc_stream_desc_ack(). It will handle offset calculation, removal of
data, freeing oldest buffer and freeing stream instance if required.
The qc_stream_desc API is cleaner as qc_stream_desc_free_buf() ambiguous
function has been removed.
Complete the qc_stream_desc type to support multiple buffers on
emission. The main objective is to increase the transfer throughput.
The MUX is now able to transfer more data without having to wait ACKs.
To implement this feature, a new type qc_stream_buf is declared. it
encapsulates a buffer with a list element. New functions are defined to
retrieve the current buffer, release it or allocate a new one. Each
buffer is kept in the qc_stream_desc list until all of its data is
acknowledged.
On the MUX side, a qcs uses the current stream buffer to transfer data.
Once the buffer is full, it is released and a new one will be allocated
on a future qc_send() invocation.
Add a new member <qc> in qc_stream_desc structure. This change is
possible since previous patch which add quic-conn argument to
qc_stream_desc_new().
The purpose of this change is to simplify the future evolution of
qc-stream-desc API. This will avoid to repeat qc as argument in various
functions which already used a qc_stream_desc.
Simplify the model qcs/qc_stream_desc. Each types has now its own tree
node, stored respectively in qcc and quic-conn trees. It is still
necessary to mark the stream as detached by the MUX once all data is
transfered to the lower layer.
This might improve slightly the performance on ACK management as now
only the lookup in quic-conn is necessary. On the other hand, memory
size of qcs structure is increased.
Regroup all type definitions and functions related to qc_stream_desc in
the source file src/quic_stream.c.
qc_stream_desc complexity will be increased with the development of Tx
multi-buffers. Having a dedicated module is useful to mix it with
pure transport/quic-conn code.
DHE ciphers do not present a security risk if the key is big enough but
they are slow and mostly obsoleted by ECDHE. This patch removes any
default DH parameters. This will effectively disable all DHE ciphers
unless a global ssl-dh-param-file is defined, or
tune.ssl.default-dh-param is set, or a frontend has DH parameters
included in its PEM certificate. In this latter case, only the frontends
that have DH parameters will have DHE ciphers enabled.
Adding explicitely a DHE ciphers in a "bind" line will not be enough to
actually enable DHE. We would still need to know which DH parameters to
use so one of the three conditions described above must be met.
This request was described in GitHub issue #1604.
MacOS can feed fc_rtt, fc_rttvar, fc_sacked, fc_lost and fc_retrans
so let's expose them on this platform.
Note that at the tcp(7) level, the API is slightly different, as
struct tcp_info is called tcp_connection_info and TCP_INFO is
called TCP_CONNECTION_INFO, so for convenience these ones were
defined to point to their equivalent. However there is a small
difference now in that tcpi_rtt is called tcpi_rttcur on this
platform, which forces us to make a special case for it before
other platforms.
The two recent patches b12966af1 ("BUILD: debug: mark the
__start_mem_stats/__stop_mem_stats symbols as weak") and 2a06e248f
("BUILD: initcall: mark the __start_i_* symbols as weak, not global")
aimed at fixing a build warning and resulted in a build breakage on
MacOS which doesn't have a ".weak" asm statement.
We've already had MacOS-specific asm() statements for section names, so
this patch continues on this trend by moving HA_GLOBL() to compiler.h
and using ".globl" on MacOS since apparently nobody complains there.
It is debatable whether to expose this only when !USE_OBSOLETE_LINKER
or all the time, but since these are just macroes it's no big deal to
let them be available when needed and let the caller decide on the
build conditions.
If any of the patches above is backported, this one will need to as
well.
Ilya reported in issue #1638 that Clang 14 has invented a new warning
that encourages to modify the code in a way that is not always
equivalent, by turning "|" to "||" between some logical operators,
except that the first one guarantees that all members of the expression
will always be evaluated while the latter will stop at the first one
which is true!
This warning triggers in thread_has_tasks(), which is not sensitive to
such change of behavior but which is built this way because it results
in branchless code for something that most often evaluates to false for
all terms. As such it was out of question to turn this to less efficient
compare-and-jump that needlessly pollute the branch predictor, so the
workaround consists in casting each expression to (int). It was verified
that the code is the same.
Yet another example of how-to-introduce-bugs-by-fixing-valid-code
through warnings invented around a beer without thinking longer!
This may need to be backported to a few older branches in case this
compiler lands in recent distros or if gcc finds it wise to imitate it.
Just like for previous fix, these symbols are marked ".globl" during
their declaration, but their later mention uses __attribute__((weak)),
so it's better to only use ".weak" during the declaration so that the
symbol's class does not change.
No need to backport this unless someone reports build issues.
Building with clang and DEBUG_MEM_STATS shows the following warnings:
warning: __start_mem_stats changed binding to STB_WEAK [-Wsource-mgr]
warning: __stop_mem_stats changed binding to STB_WEAK [-Wsource-mgr]
The reason is that the symbols are declared using ".globl" while they
are also referenced as __attribute__((weak)) elsewhere. It turns out
that a weak symbol is implicitly a global one and that the two classes
are exclusive, thus it may confuse the linker. Better fix this.
This may be backported where the patch applies.
cs_conn_io_cb(), cs_conn_sync_recv() and cs_conn_sync_send() are moved in
conn_stream.c. Associated functions are moved too (cs_notify, cs_conn_read0,
cs_conn_recv, cs_conn_send and cs_conn_process).
Remaining flags and associated functions are move in the conn-stream
scope. These flags are added on the endpoint and not the conn-stream
itself. This way it will be possible to get them from the mux or the
applet. The functions to get or set these flags are renamed accordingly with
the "cs_" prefix and updated to manipualte a conn-stream instead of a
stream-interface.
si_conn_cb variable is renamed cs_data_conn_cb. In addtion, its associated
functions are also renamed. si_cs_recv(), si_cs_send() and si_cs_process() are
renamed cs_conn_recv(), cs_conn_send and cs_conn_process(). These functions are
updated to manipulate conn-streams instead of stream-interfaces.
data callbacks were only used for streams attached to a connection and
for health-checks. However there is a callback used by task_run_applet. So,
si_applet_wake_cb() is first renamed to cs_applet_process() and it is
defined as the data callback for streams attached to an applet. This way,
this part now manipulates a conn-stream instead of a stream-interface. In
addition, applets are no longer handled as an exception for this part.
si_update_both() is renamed stream_update_both_cs() and moved in stream.c.
The function is slightly changed to manipulate the stream instead the front
and back conn-streams.
si_update_rx(), si_update_tx() and si_update() are renamed cs_update_rx(),
cs_upate_tx() and cs_update() and updated to manipulate a conn-stream
instead of a stream-interface.
It is a transient commit. It should ease next changes about the conn-stream
refactoring. At the end these functions will be moved in the conn-stream
scope.
si_register_applet() and si_applet_release() are renamed
cs_register_applet() and cs_applet_release() and now manipulate a
conn-stream instead of a stream-inteface.
si_shutr(), si_shutw(), si_chk_rcv() and si_chk_snd() are moved in the
conn-stream scope and renamed, respectively, cs_shutr(), cs_shutw(),
cs_chk_rcv(), cs_chk_snd() and manipulate a conn-stream instead of a
stream-interface.
Some conn-stream functions are only used when there is a connection. Thus,
they was renamed with "cs_conn_" prefix. In addition, we expect to have a
connection, so a BUG_ON is added to be sure the functions are never called
in another context.
wait_event structure is moved in the conn-stream. The tasklet is only
created if the conn-stream is attached to a mux and released when the mux is
detached. This implies a subtle change. In stream_int_chk_rcv() function,
the wakeup of the tasklet was removed because there is no longer tasklet at
this stage (stream_int_chk_rcv() is a callback function of si_embedded_ops).
To be able to move wait_event from the stream-interface to the conn-stream,
we must be prepare to handle errors when a mux is attached to a conn-stream.
Indeed, the wait_event's tasklet will be allocated when both a mux and a
stream will be both attached to a stream. So, we must be prepared to handle
allocation errors.
These flags only concerns the connection part. In addition, it is required
for a next commit, to avoid circular deps. Thus CS_SHR_* and CS_SHW_* were
renamed with the "CO_" prefix.
si_connect() is moved in backend.c and renamed as do_connect_server(). In
addition, the function now manipulate a stream instead of a
stream-interface.
si_retnclose() is used to send a reply to a client before closing. There is
no use on the server side, in spite of the function is generic. Thus, it is
renamed stream_retnclose() and moved into the stream scope. The function now
handle a stream and explicitly send a message to the client.
The stream-interface state (SI_ST_*) is now in the conn-stream. It is a
mechanical replacement for now. Nothing special. SI_ST_* and SI_SB_* were
renamed accordingly. Utils functions to manipulate these infos were moved
under the conn-stream scope.
But it could be good to keep in mind that this part should be
reworked. Indeed, at the CS level, we only need to know if it is ready to
receive or to send. The state of conn-stream from INI to EST is only used on
the server side. The client CS is immediately set to EST. Thus current
SI_ST_* states should probably be moved to the stream to reflect the server
connection state during the establishment stage.
Only the server side is concerned by the stream-interface error type. It is
useless to have an err_type field on the client side. So, it is now move to
the stream. SI_ET_* are renames STRM_ET_* and moved in stream-t.h header
file.
The previous connection state on the client side was only used for debugging
purpose to report client close. But this may be handled when the client
stream-interface is switched from SI_ST_DIS to SI_ST_CLO.
So, there only remains the previous connection state on the server side that
is used by the stream, in process_stream(), to be able to set the correct
termination flags. Thus, instead of keeping this info in the
stream-interface for only one side, the info is now stored in the stream
itself.
Flag to get the source ip/port with getsockname is now handled at the stream
level. Thus SI_FL_SRC_ADDR stream-int flag is replaced by SF_SRC_ADDR stream
flag.
Flag to consider a stream as indepenent is now handled at the conn-stream
level. Thus SI_FL_INDEP_STR stream-int flag is replaced by CS_FL_INDEP_STR
conn-stream flags.
Flag to not wake the stream up on I/O is now handled at the conn-stream
level. Thus SI_FL_DONT_WAKE stream-int flag is replaced by CS_FL_DONT_WAKE
conn-stream flags.
Flags to disable lingering and half-close are now handled at the conn-stream
level. Thus SI_FL_NOLINGER and SI_FL_NOHALF stream-int flags are replaced by
CS_FL_NOLINGER and CS_FL_NOHALF conn-stream flags.
Instead of setting a stream-interface flag to then set the corresponding
conn-stream endpoint flag, we now only rely the conn-stream endoint. Thus
SI_FL_KILL_CON is replaced by CS_EP_KILL_CONN.
In addition si_must_kill_conn() is replaced by cs_must_kill_conn().
Instead of relying on the conn-stream error, via CS_FL_ERR flags, we now
directly use the error at the endpoint level with the flag CS_EP_ERROR. It
should be safe to do so. But we must be careful because it is still possible
that an error is processed too early. Anyway, a conn-stream has always a
valid endpoint, maybe detached from any endpoint, but valid.
SI_FL_ERR is removed and replaced by CS_FL_ERROR. It is a transient patch
because the idea is to rely on the endpoint to handle errors at this
level. But if for any reason it is not possible, the stream-interface flags
will still be replaced.
The expiration date in the stream-interface was only used on the server side
to set the connect, queue or turn-around timeout. It was checked on the
frontend stream-interface, but never used concretely. So it was removed and
replaced by a connect expiration date in the stream itself. Thus, SI_FL_EXP
flag in stream-interfaces is replaced by a stream flag, SF_CONN_EXP.
The source and destination addresses at the applicative layer are moved from
the stream-interface to the conn-stream. This simplifies a bit the code and
it is a logicial step to remove the stream-interface.
The conn_retries counter was set to the max value and decremented at each
connection retry. Thus the counter reflected the number of retries left and
not the real number of retries. All calculations of redispatch or reporting
of number of retries experienced were made using subtracts from the
configured retries, which was complicated and didn't bring any benefit.
Now, this counter is set to 0 and incremented at each retry. We know we've
reached the maximum allowed connection retries by comparing it to the
configured value. In all other cases, we directly use the counter.
This patch should address the feature request #1608.
The conn_retries counter may be moved into the stream structure. It only
concerns the connection establishment. The frontend stream-interface does not
use it. So it is a logical change.
The L7 retries only concerns the stream when a server connection is
established. Thus instead of storing the L7 buffer into the
stream-interface, it may be moved to the stream. And because it is only
available for HTTP streams, it may be moved in the HTTP transaction.
Associated flags are also moved into the HTTP transaction.
At many places, we now use the new CS functions to get a stream or a channel
from a conn-stream instead of using the stream-interface API. It is the
first step to reduce the scope of the stream-interfaces. The main change
here is about the applet I/O callback functions. Before the refactoring, the
stream-interface was the appctx owner. Thus, it was heavily used. Now, as
far as possible,the conn-stream is used. Of course, it remains many calls to
the stream-interface API.
cs_utils.h header file will contain all util functions related to the
conn_streams. For now, few functions were added, all are equivalent to SI
functions. Idea is to progressively replace SI functions by CS ones.
CS_FL_ISBACK is a new flag, set on backend conn-streams. We must just be
careful to preserve this flag when the endpoint is detached from the
conn-stream.
All old flags CS_FL_* are now moved in the endpoint scope and renamed
CS_EP_* accordingly. It is a systematic replacement. There is no true change
except for the health-check and the endpoint reset. Here it is a bit special
because the same conn-stream is reused. Thus, we must handle endpoint
allocation errors. To do so, cs_reset_endp() has been adapted.
Thanks to this last change, it will now be possible to simplify the
multiplexer and probably the applets too. A review must also be performed to
remove some flags in the channel or the stream-interface. The HTX will
probably be simplified too. Finally, there is now some place in the
conn-stream to move info from the stream-interface.
The conn-stream endpoint is now shared between the conn-stream and the
applet or the multiplexer. If the mux or the applet is created first, it is
responsible to also create the endpoint and share it with the conn-stream.
If the conn-stream is created first, it is the opposite.
When the endpoint is only owned by an applet or a mux, it is called an
orphan endpoint (there is no conn-stream). When it is only owned by a
conn-stream, it is called a detached endpoint (there is no mux/applet).
The last entity that owns an endpoint is responsible to release it. When a
mux or an applet is detached from a conn-stream, the conn-stream
relinquishes the endpoint to recreate a new one. This way, the endpoint
state is never lost for the mux or the applet.
It is a transient commit to prepare next changes. Now, when a conn-stream is
created from an applet or a multiplexer, an endpoint is always provided. In
addition, the API to create a conn-stream was specialized to have one
function per type.
The next step will be to share the endpoint structure.
It is a transient commit to prepare next changes. It is possible to pass a
pre-allocated endpoint to create a new conn-stream. If it is NULL, a new
endpoint is created, otherwise the existing one is used. There no more
change at the conn-stream level.
In the applets, all conn-stream are created with no pre-allocated
endpoint. But for multiplexers, an endpoint is systematically created before
creating the conn-stream.
Some CS flags, only related to the endpoint, are moved into the endpoint
struct. More will probably moved later. Those ones are not critical. So it
is pretty safe to move them now and this will ease next changes.
Group the endpoint target of a conn-stream, its context and the associated
flags in a dedicated structure in the conn-stream. It is not inlined in the
conn-stream structure. There is a dedicated pool.
For now, there is no complexity. It is just an indirection to get the
endpoint or its context. But the purpose of this structure is to be able to
share a refcounted context between the mux and the conn-stream. This way, it
will be possible to preserve it when the mux is detached from the
conn-stream.
The function cs_init() is only called by cs_new(). The conn-stream
initialization will be reviewed. It is easier to do it in cs_new() instead
of using a dedicated function. cs_new() is pretty simple, there is no reason
to split the code in this case.
This change is only significant for the multiplexer part. For the applets,
the context and the endpoint are the same. Thus, there is no much change. For
the multiplexer part, the connection was used to set the conn-stream
endpoint and the mux's stream was the context. But it is a bit strange
because once a mux is installed, it takes over the connection. In a
wonderful world, the connection should be totally hidden behind the mux. The
stream-interface and, in a lesser extent, the stream, still access the
connection because that was inherited from the pre-multiplexer era.
Now, the conn-stream endpoint is the mux's stream (an opaque entity for the
conn-stream) and the connection is the context. Dedicated functions have
been added to attached an applet or a mux to a conn-stream.
The appctx owner is now always a conn-stream. Thus, it can be set during the
appctx allocation. But, to do so, the conn-stream must be created first. It
is not a problem on the server side because the conn-stream is created with
the stream. On the client side, we must take care to create the conn-stream
first.
This change should ease other changes about the applets bootstrapping.
This patch is mandatory to invert the endpoint and the context in the
conn-stream. There is no common type (at least for now) for the entity
representing a mux (h1s, h2s...), thus we must set its type when the
endpoint is attached to a conn-stream. There is 2 types for the conn-stream
endpoints: the mux (CS_FL_ENDP_MUX) and the applet (CS_FL_ENDP_APP).
For now there is no much change. Only the appctx is passed as argument when
the .init callback function is called. And it is not possible to yield at
this stage. It is not a problem because the feature is not used. Only the
lua defines this callback function for the lua TCP/HTTP services. The idea
is to be able to use it for all applets to initialize the appctx context.
First gcc, then now coverity report possible null derefs in situations
where we know these cannot happen since we call the functions in
contexts that guarantee the existence of the connection and the method
used. Let's introduce an unchecked version of the function for such
cases, just like we had to do with objt_*. This allows us to remove the
ALREADY_CHECKED() statements (which coverity doesn't see), and addresses
github issues #1643, #1644, #1647.
It was supposed to be there, and probably was not placed there due to
historic limitations in listener_accept(), but now there does not seem
to be a remaining valid reason for keeping the quic_conn out of the
handle. In addition in new_quic_cli_conn() the handle->fd was incorrectly
set to the listener's FD.
Historically there was a single way to have an SSL transport on a
connection, so detecting if the transport layer was SSL and a context
was present was sufficient to detect SSL. With QUIC, things have changed
because QUIC also relies on SSL, but the context is embedded inside the
quic_conn and the transport layer doesn't match expectations outside,
making it difficult to detect that SSL is in use over the connection.
The approach taken here to improve this consists in adding a new method
at the transport layer, get_ssl_sock_ctx(), to retrieve this often needed
ssl_sock_ctx, and to use this to detect the presence of SSL. This will
even allow some simplifications and cleanups to be made in the SSL code
itself, and QUIC will be able to provide one to export its ssl_sock_ctx.
These functions will allow the connection layer to retrieve a quic_conn's
source or destination when possible. The quic_conn holds the peer's address
but not the local one, and the sockets API doesn't always makes that easy
for datagrams. Thus for frontend connection what we're doing here is to
retrieve the listener's address when the destination address is desired.
Now it finally becomes possible to fetch the source and destination using
"src" and "dst", and to pass an incoming connection's endpoints via the
proxy protocol.
Right now the proto_fam descriptor provides a family-specific
get_src() and get_dst() pair of calls to retrieve a socket's source
or destination address. However this only works for connected mode
sockets. QUIC provides its own stream protocol, which relies on a
datagram protocol underneath, so the get_src()/get_dst() at that
protocol's family will not work, and QUIC would need to provide its
own.
This patch implements get_src() and get_dst() at the protocol level
from a connection, and makes sure that conn_get_src()/conn_get_dst()
will automatically use them if defined before falling back to the
family's pair of functions.
We'll want conn_get_src/dst to support other means of retrieving these
respective IP addresses, but the functions as they're designed are a bit
too restrictive for now.
This patch arranges them to have a default error fallback allowing to
test different mechanisms. In addition we now make sure the underlying
protocol is of type stream before calling the family's get_src/dst as
it makes no sense to do that on dgram sockets for example.
Certain functions cannot be called on an FD-less conn because they are
normally called as part of the protocol-specific setup/teardown sequence.
Better place a few BUG_ON() to make sure none of them is called in other
situations. If any of them would trigger in ambiguous conditions, it would
always be possible to replace it with an error.
Some syscalls at the TCP level act directly on the FD. Some of them
are used by TCP actions like set-tos, set-mark, silent-drop, others
try to retrieve TCP info, get the source or destination address. These
ones must not be called with an invalid FD coming from an FD-less
connection, so let's add the relevant tests for this. It's worth
noting that all these ones already have fall back plans (do nothing,
error, or switch to alternate implementation).
There are plenty of places (particularly in debug code) where we try to
dump the connection's FD only when the connection is defined. That's
already a pain but now it gets one step further with QUIC because we do
*not* want to dump this FD in this case.
conn_fd() checks if the connection exists, is ready and is not fd-less,
and returns the FD only in this case, otherwise returns -1. This aims at
simplifying most of these conditions.
QUIC connections do not use a file descriptor, instead they use the
quic equivalent which is the quic_conn. A number of our historical
functions at the connection level continue to unconditionally touch
the file descriptor and this may have consequences once QUIC starts
to be used.
This patch adds a new flag on QUIC connections, CO_FL_FDLESS, to
mention that the connection doesn't have a file descriptor, hence the
FD-based API must never be used on them.
From now on it will be possible to intrument existing functions to
panic when this flag is present.
The OpenSSL engine API is deprecated starting with OpenSSL 3.0.
In order to have a clean build this feature is now disabled by default.
It can be reactivated with USE_ENGINE=1 on the build line.
The new 'close-spread-time' global option can be used to spread idle and
active HTTP connction closing after a SIGUSR1 signal is received. This
allows to limit bursts of reconnections when too many idle connections
are closed at once. Indeed, without this new mechanism, in case of
soft-stop, all the idle connections would be closed at once (after the
grace period is over), and all active HTTP connections would be closed
by appending a "Connection: close" header to the next response that goes
over it (or via a GOAWAY frame in case of HTTP2).
This patch adds the support of this new option for HTTP as well as HTTP2
connections. It works differently on active and idle connections.
On active connections, instead of sending systematically the GOAWAY
frame or adding the 'Connection: close' header like before once the
soft-stop has started, a random based on the remainder of the close
window is calculated, and depending on its result we could decide to
keep the connection alive. The random will be recalculated for any
subsequent request/response on this connection so the GOAWAY will still
end up being sent, but we might wait a few more round trips. This will
ensure that goaways are distributed along a longer time window than
before.
On idle connections, a random factor is used when determining the expire
field of the connection's task, which should naturally spread connection
closings on the time window (see h2c_update_timeout).
This feature request was described in GitHub issue #1614.
This patch should be backported to 2.5. It depends on "BUG/MEDIUM:
mux-h2: make use of http-request and keep-alive timeouts" which
refactorized the timeout management of HTTP2 connections.
We modify the key update feature implementation to support reusable cipher contexts
as this is done for the other cipher contexts for packet decryption and encryption.
To do so we attach a context to the quic_tls_kp struct and initialize it each time
the underlying secret key is updated. Same thing when we rotate the secrets keys,
we rotate the contexts as the same time.
Add ->ctx new member field to quic_tls_secrets struct to store the cipher context
for each QUIC TLS context TX/RX parts.
Add quic_tls_rx_ctx_init() and quic_tls_tx_ctx_init() functions to initialize
these cipher context for RX and TX parts respectively.
Make qc_new_isecs() call these two functions to initialize the cipher contexts
of the Initial secrets. Same thing for ha_quic_set_encryption_secrets() to
initialize the cipher contexts of the subsequent derived secrets (ORTT, Handshake,
1RTT).
Modify quic_tls_decrypt() and quic_tls_encrypt() to always use the same cipher
context without allocating it each time they are called.
Define a new API to notify the MUX from the quic-conn when the
connection is about to be closed. This happens in the following cases :
- on idle timeout
- on CONNECTION_CLOSE emission or reception
The MUX wake callback is called on these conditions. The quic-conn
QUIC_FL_NOTIFY_CLOSE is set to only report once. On the MUX side,
connection flags CO_FL_SOCK_RD_SH|CO_FL_SOCK_WR_SH are set to interrupt
future emission/reception.
This patch is the counterpart to
"MEDIUM: mux-quic: report CO_FL_ERROR on send".
Now the quic-conn is able to report its closing, which may be translated
by the MUX into a CO_FL_ERROR on the connection for the upper layer.
This allows the MUX to properly react to the QUIC closing mechanism for
both idle-timeout and closing/draining states.
Complete the error reporting. For each attached streams, if CO_FL_ERROR
is set, mark them with CS_FL_ERR_PENDING|CS_FL_ERROR. This will notify
the upper layer to trigger streams detach and release of the MUX.
This reporting is implemented in a new function qc_wake_some_streams(),
called by qc_wake(). This ensures that a lower-layer error is quickly
reported to the individual streams.
Add a new app layer operation is_active. This can be used by the MUX to
check if the connection can be considered as active or not. This is used
inside qcc_is_dead as a first check.
For example on HTTP/3, if there is at least one bidir client stream
opened the connection is active. This explicitly ignore the uni streams
used for control and qpack as they can never be closed during the
connection lifetime.
Improve timeout handling on the MUX. When releasing a stream, first
check if the connection can be considered as dead and should be freed
immediatly. This allows to liberate resources faster when possible.
If the connection is still active, ensure there is no attached
conn-stream before scheduling the timeout. To do this, add a nb_cs field
in the qcc structure.
This flag was used to notify the MUX about a CONNECTION_CLOSE frame
reception. It is now unused on the MUX side and can be removed. A new
mechanism to detect quic-conn closing will be soon implemented.
Rationalize the lifetime of the quic-conn regarding with the MUX. The
quic-conn must not be freed if the MUX is still allocated.
This simplify the MUX code when accessing the quic-conn and removed
possible segfaults.
To implement this, if the quic-conn timer expired, the quic-conn is
released only if the MUX is not allocated. Else, the quic-conn is
flagged with QUIC_FL_CONN_EXP_TIMER. The MUX is then responsible
to call quic_close() which will free the flagged quic-conn.
New received packets after sending CONNECTION_CLOSE frame trigger a new
CONNECTION_CLOSE frame to be sent. Each time such a frame is sent we
increase the number of packet required to send another CONNECTION_CLOSE
frame.
Rearm only one time the idle timer when sending a CONNECTION_CLOSE frame.
This should be useful to have an idea of the list of frames which could be built
towards the list of available frames when building packets.
Same thing about the frames which could not be built because of a lack of room
in the TX buffer.
Due to a erroneous interpretation of the RFC 9000 (quic-transport), ACKs frames
were always sent only after having received two ack-eliciting packets.
This could trigger useless retransmissions for tail packets on the peer side.
For now on, we send as soon as possible ACK frames as soon as we have ACK to send,
in the same packets as the ack-eliciting frame packets, and we also send ACK
frames after having received 2 ack-eliciting packets since the last time we sent
an ACK frame with other ack-eliciting frames.
As such variables are handled by the QUIC connection I/O handler which runs
always on the thread, there is no need to continue to use such atomic operations
The new qc_stream_desc type has a tree node for storage. Thus, we can
remove the node in the qcs structure.
When initializing a new stream, it is stored into the qcc streams_by_id
tree. When the MUX releases it, it will freed as soon as its buffer is
emptied. Before this, the quic-conn is responsible to store it inside
its own streams_by_id tree.
Move the xprt-buf and ack related fields from qcs to the qc_stream_desc
structure. In exchange, qcs has a pointer to the low-level stream. For
each new qcs, a qc_stream_desc is automatically allocated.
This simplify the transport layer by removing qcs/mux manipulation
during ACK frame parsing. An additional check is done to not notify the
MUX on sending if the stream is already released : this case may now
happen on retransmission.
To complete this change, the quic_stream frame now references the
quic_stream instance instead of a qcs.
Currently, the mux qcs streams manage the Tx buffering, even after
sending it to the transport layer. Buffers are emptied when
acknowledgement are treated by the transport layer. This complicates the
MUX liberation and we may loose some data after the MUX free.
Change this paradigm by moving the buffering on the transport layer. For
this goal, a new type is implemented as low-level stream at the
transport layer, as a counterpart of qcs mux instances. This structure
is called qc_stream_desc. This will allow to free the qcs/qcc instances
without having to wait for acknowledge reception.
For the moment, the quic-conn is responsible to store the qc_stream_desc
in a new tree named streams_by_id. This will sligthly change in the next
commits to remove the qcs node which has a similar purpose :
qc_stream_desc instances will be shared between the qcc MUX and the
quic-conn.
This patch only introduces the new type definition and the function to
manipulate it. The following commit will bring the rearchitecture in the
qcs structure.
Define a new callback release inside qcc_app_ops. It is called when the
qcc MUX is freed via qc_release. This will allows to implement cleaning
on the app layer.
Regroup some cleaning operations inside a new function qcs_free. This
can be used for all streams, both through qcs_destroy and with
uni-directional streams.
The CertCache.set() function allows to update an SSL certificate file
stored in the memory of the HAProxy process. This function does the same
as "set ssl cert" + "commit ssl cert" over the CLI.
This could be used to update the crt and key, as well as the OCSP, the
SCTL, and the OSCP issuer.
The implementation does yield every 10 ckch instances, the same way the
"commit ssl cert" do.
Extract the code that replace the ckch_store and its dependencies into
the ckch_store_replace() function.
This function must be used under the global ckch lock.
It frees everything related to the old ckch_store.
The new function dump_act_rules() now dumps the list of actions supported
by a ruleset. These actions are alphanumerically sorted first so that the
produced output is easy to compare.
When trying to sort sets of strings, it's often needed to required to
compare 3 strings to see if the chosen one fits well between the two
others. That's what this function does, in addition to being able to
ignore extremities when they're NULL (typically for the first iteration
for example).
Similar to the sample fetch keywords, let's also list the converter
keywords. They're much simpler since there's no compatibility matrix.
Instead the input and output types are listed. This is called by
dump_registered_keywords() for the "cnv" keywords class.
New function smp_dump_fetch_kw lists registered sample fetch keywords
with their compatibility matrix, mandatory and optional argument types,
and output types. It's called from dump_registered_keywords() with class
"smp".
New function acl_dump_kwd() dumps the registered ACL keywords and their
sample-fetch equivalent to stdout. It's called by dump_registered_keywords()
for keyword class "acl".
New function cli_list_keywords() scans the list of registered CLI keywords
and dumps them on stdout. It's now called from dump_registered_keywords()
for the class "cli".
Some keywords are valid for the master, they'll be suffixed with
"[MASTER]". Others are valid for the worker, they'll have "[WORKER]".
Those accessible only in expert mode will show "[EXPERT]" and the
experimental ones will show "[EXPERIM]".
All registered config keywords that are valid in the config parser are
dumped to stdout organized like the regular sections (global, listen,
etc). Some keywords that are known to only be valid in frontends or
backends will be suffixed with [FE] or [BE].
All regularly registered "bind" and "server" keywords are also dumped,
one per "bind" or "server" line. Those depending on ssl are listed after
the "ssl" keyword. Doing so required to export the listener and server
keyword lists that were static.
The function is called from dump_registered_keywords() for keyword
class "cfg".
It's difficult from outside haproxy to detect the supported keywords
and syntax. Interestingly, many of our modern keywords are enumerated
since they're registered from constructors, so it's not very hard to
enumerate most of them.
This patch creates some basic infrastructure to support dumping existing
keywords from different classes on stdout. The format will differ depending
on the classes, but the idea is that the output could easily be passed to
a script that generates some simple syntax highlighting rules, completion
rules for editors, syntax checkers or config parsers.
The principle chosen here is that if "-dK" is passed on the command-line,
at the end of the parsing the registered keywords will be dumped for the
requested classes passed after "-dK". Special name "help" will show known
classes, while "all" will execute all of them. The reason for doing that
after the end of the config processor is that it will also enumerate
internally-generated keywords, Lua or even those loaded from external
code (e.g. if an add-on is loaded using LD_PRELOAD). A typical way to
call this with a valid config would be:
./haproxy -dKall -q -c -f /path/to/config
If there's no config available, feeding /dev/null will also do the job,
though it will not be able to detect dynamically created keywords, of
course.
This patch also updates the management doc.
For now nothing but the help is listed, various subsystems will follow
in subsequent patches.
Move all inline functions with trace from quic_loss.h to a dedicated
object file. This let to remove the TRACE_SOURCE macro definition
outside of the include file.
This change is required to be able to define another TRACE_SOUCE inside
the mux_quic.c for a dedicated trace module.
This commit is similar to the previous one but with MAX_DATA frames.
This allows to increase the connection level flow-control limit. If the
connection was blocked due to QC_CF_BLK_MFCTL flag, the flag is reseted.
Implement a MUX method to parse MAX_STREAM_DATA. If the limit is greater
than the previous one and the stream was blocked, the flag
QC_SF_BLK_SFCTL is removed.
This commit is similar to the previous one, but this time on the
connection level instead of the stream.
When the connection limit is reached, the connection is flagged with
QC_CF_BLK_MFCTL. This flag is checked in qc_send.
qcs_push_frame uses a new parameter which is used to not exceed the
connection flow-limit while calling it repeatdly over multiple streams
instance before transfering data to the transport layer.
Implement the flow-control max-streams-data limit on emission. We ensure
that we never push more than the offset limit set by the peer. When the
limit is reached, the stream is marked as blocked with a new flag
QC_SF_BLK_SFCTL to disable emission.
Currently, this is only implemented for bidirectional streams. It's
required to unify the sending for unidirectional streams via
qcs_push_frame from the H3 layer to respect the flow-control limit for
them.
Rename the fields used for flow-control in the qcc structure. The
objective is to have shorter name for better readability while keeping
their purpose clear. It will be useful when the flow-control will be
extended with new fields.
In MQTTv3.1, protocol name is "MQIsdp" and protocol level is 3. The mqtt
converters(mqtt_is_valid and mqtt_field_value) did not work for clients on
mqttv3.1 because the mqtt_parse_connect() marked the CONNECT message invalid
if either the protocol name is not "MQTT" or the protocol version is other than
v3.1.1 or v5.0. To fix it, we have added the mqttv3.1 protocol name and version
as part of the checks.
This patch fixes the mqtt converters to support mqttv3.1 clients as well (issue #1600).
It must be backported to 2.4.
During the packet number space discarding, do no reset tx.in_flight counter
before decrement it from other variables.
Furthermore path prep_in_flight counter was not decremented.
We must consider the peer address as validated as soon as we received an
handshake packet. An ACK frame in handshake packet was too restrictive.
Rename the concerned flag to reflect this situation.
The most important one is the ->flags member which leads to an erratic xprt behavior.
For instance a non ack-eliciting packet could be seen as ack-eliciting leading the
xprt to try to retransmit a packet which are not ack-eliciting. In this case, the
xprt does nothing and remains indefinitively in a blocking state.
The TX packet refcounting had come with the multithreading support but not only.
It is very useful to ease the management of the memory allocated for TX packets
with TX frames attached to. At some locations of the code we have to move TX
frames from a packet to a new one during retranmission when the packet has been
deemed as lost or not. When deemed lost the memory allocated for the paquet must
be released contrary to when its frames are retransmitted when probing (PTO).
For now on, thanks to this patch we handle the TX packets memory this way. We
increment the packet refcount when:
- we insert it in its packet number space tree,
- we attache an ack-eliciting frame to it.
And reciprocally we decrement this refcount when:
- we remove an ack-eliciting frame from the packet,
- we delete the packet from its packet number space tree.
Note that an optimization WOULD NOT be to fully reuse (without releasing its
memorya TX packet to retransmit its contents (its ack-eliciting frames). Its
information (timestamp, in flight length) to be processed by packet loss detection
and the congestion control.
When building a packet with an ACK frame, we store the largest acknowledged
packet number sent in this frame in the packet (quic_tx_packet struc).
When receiving an ack for such a packet we can purge the tree of acknowledged
packet number ranges from the range sent before this largest acknowledged
packet number.
This struct member stores the largest acked packet number which was received. It
is used to build (TX) packet. But this is confusing to store it in the tx packet
of the packet number space structure even if it is used to build and transmit
packets.
There was free_act_rules() that frees all rules from a head but nothing
to free a single rule. Currently some rulesets partially free their own
rules on parsing error, and we're seeing some regtests emit errors under
ASAN because of this.
Let's first extract the code to free a rule into its own function so
that it becomes possible to use it on a single rule.
Log servers are a real mess because:
- entries are duplicated using memcpy() without their strings being
reallocated, which results in these ones not being freeable every
time.
- a new field, ring_name, was added in 2.2 by commit 99c453df9
("MEDIUM: ring: new section ring to declare custom ring buffers.")
but it's never initialized during copies, causing the same issue
- no attempt is made at freeing all that.
Of course, running "haproxy -c" under ASAN quickly notices that and
dumps a core.
This patch adds the missing strdup() and initialization where required,
adds a new free_logsrv() function to cleanly free() such a structure,
calls it from the proxy when iterating over logsrvs instead of silently
leaking their file names and ring names, and adds the same logsrv loop
to the proxy_free_defaults() function so that we don't leak defaults
sections on exit.
It looks a bit entangled, but it comes as a whole because all this stuff
is inter-dependent and was missing.
It's probably preferable not to backport this in the foreseable future
as it may reveal other jokes if some obscure parts continue to memcpy()
the logsrv struct.
The BUG_ON_HOT() test condition added to b_peek_varint() by commit
8873b85bd ("DEBUG: buf: add BUG_ON_HOT() to most buffer management
functions") was wrong as <data> in this function is not b->data,
so that was triggering during live dumps of H2 traces on the CLI
when built with -DDEBUG_STRICT=2. No backport is needed.
The current implementation of STREAM frames emission has some
limitation. Most notably when we cannot sent all frames in a single
qc_send run.
In this case, frames are left in front of the MUX list. It will be
re-send individually before other frames, possibly another frame from
the same STREAM with new data. An opportunity to merge the frames is
lost here.
This method is now improved. If a frame cannot be send entirely, it is
discarded. On the next qc_send run, we retry to send to this position. A
new field qcs.sent_offset is used to remember this. A new frame list is
used for each qc_send.
The impact of this change is not precisely known. The most notable point
is that it is a more logical method of emission. It might also improve
performance as we do not keep old STREAM frames which might delay other
streams.
Implement a new MUX function qcc_notify_send. This function must be
called by the transport layer to confirm the sending of STREAM data to
the MUX.
For the moment, the function has no real purpose. However, it will be
useful to solve limitations on push frame and implement the flow
control.
The aim of the idle timeout is to silently closed the connection after a period
of inactivity depending on the "max_idle_timeout" transport parameters advertised
by the endpoints. We add a new task to implement this timer. Its expiry is
updated each time we received an ack-eliciting packet, and each time we send
an ack-eliciting packet if no other such packet was sent since we received
the last ack-eliciting packet. Such conditions may be implemented thanks
to QUIC_FL_CONN_IDLE_TIMER_RESTARTED_AFTER_READ new flag.
This packet number space flags were defined with the same value because
defined at different places in the file. Assemble them at the same location
with different values.
This bug could unvalidate the peer address after it was validated
during the handshake leading to the anti-amplication limit to be
enabled again after having been disabled. The situation could not
be unblocked (deadlock).
There is no need to use such a reference counter anymore since the QUIC
connections are always handled by the same thread.
quic_conn_drop() is removed. Its code is merged into quic_conn_release().
When we store the remote transport parameters, we compute the maximum idle
timeout for the connection which is the minimum of the two advertised
max_idle_timeout transport parameter values if both have non-null values, or the
maximum if one of the value is set and non-null.
When a tcp-{request,response} content or http-request/http-response
rule delivers a final verdict (deny, accept, redirect etc), the last
evaluated one will now be recorded in the stream. The purpose is to
permit to log the last one that performed a final action. For now
the log is not produced.
The server_id_hdr_name is already processed as an ist in various locations lets

Around limits for QUIC integer encoding, this functions could return
wrong values which lead to qc_build_frms() to prepare wrong CRYPTO (less chances)
or STREAM frames (more chances). qc_do_build_pkt() could build wrong packets
with bad CRYPTO/STREAM frames which could not be decoded by the peer.
In such a case ngtcp2 closes the connection with an ENCRYPTION_ERROR error
in a transport CONNECTION_CLOSE frame.
This function returns the maximum integer which may be encoded with a number of
bytes passed as parameter. Useful to precisely compute the number of bytes which
may used to fulfill a buffer with lengths as QUIC enteger encoded prefixes for the
number of following bytes.
When in congestion avoidance state and when acknowledging an <acked> number bytes
we must increase the congestion window by at most one datagram (<path->mtu>)
by congestion window. So thanks to this patch we apply a ratio to the current
number of acked bytes : <acked> * <path->mtu> / <cwnd>.
So, when <cwnd> bytes are acked we precisely increment <cwnd> by <path->mtu>.
Furthermore we take into an account the number of remaining acknowledged bytes
each time we increment the window by <acked> storing their values in the algorithm
struct state (->remain_acked) so that it might be take into an account at the
next ACK event.
This function returns the remaining number of bytes which can be sent on the
network before fulfilling the congestion window. There is a counter for
the number of prepared data and another one for the really in flight number
of bytes (in_flight). These variable have been mixed up.
Since the persistent congestion detection is done out of the congestion
controllers, there is no need to pass them information through quic_cc_event struct.
We remove its useless members. Also remove qc_cc_loss_event() which is no more used.
We establish the persistent congestion out of any congestion controller
to improve the algorithms genericity. This path characteristic detection may
be implemented regarless of the underlying congestion control algorithm.
Send congestion (loss) event using directly quic_cc_event(), so without
qc_cc_loss_event() wrapper function around quic_cc_event().
Take the opportunity of this patch to shorten "newest_time_sent" member field
of quic_cc_event to "time_sent".
We want to be able to make the congestion controllers re-enter the slow
start state outside of the congestion controllers themselves. So,
we add a callback ->slow_start() to do so.
Define this callback for NewReno algorithm.
kFreeBSD needs to be treated as a distinct target from FreeBSD
since the underlying system libc is the GNU one. Thus, relying
only on __GLIBC__ no longer suffice.
- freebsd-glibc new target, key difference is including crypt.h
and linking to libdl like linux.
- cpu affinity available but the api is still the FreeBSD's.
- enabling auxiliary data access only for Linux.
Patch based on preliminary work done by @bigon.
closes#1555
Implement the locally flow-control streams limit for opened
bidirectional streams. Add a counter which is used to count the total
number of closed streams. If this number is big enough, emit a
MAX_STREAMS frame to increase the limit of remotely opened bidirectional
streams.
This is the first commit to implement QUIC flow-control. A series of
patches should follow to complete this.
This is required to be able to handle more than 100 client requests.
This should help to validate the Multiplexing interop test.
Modify the STREAM emission in qc_send. Use the new transport function
qc_send_app_pkts to directly send the list of constructed frames. This
allows to remove the tasklet wakeup on the quic_conn and should reduce
the latency.
If not all frames are send after the transport call, subscribe the MUX
on the lower layer to be able to retry. Currently there is a bug because
the transport layer does not retry to send frames in excess after a
successful sendto. This might cause the transfer to be interrupted.
Define two new unions in the qcc structure named 'lfctl' and 'rfctl'.
For the moment they are empty. They will be completed to store the
initial and current level for flow-control on the local and remote side.
Improve the functions used to detect the stream characteristics :
uni/bidirectional and local/remote initiated.
Most notably, these functions are now designed to work transparently for
a MUX in the frontend or backend side. For this, we use the connection
to determine the current MUX side. This will be useful if QUIC is
implemented on the server side.
Since QUIC accept handling has been improved, the MUX is initialized
after the handshake completion. Thus its safe to access transport
parameters in qc_init via the quic_conn.
Remove quic_mux_transport_params_update which was called by the
transport for the MUX. This improves the architecture by removing a
direct call from the transport to the MUX.
The deleted function body is not transfered to qc_init because this part
will change heavily in the near future when implementing the
flow-control.
As reported by Tim in issue #1428, our sources are clean, there are
just a few files with a few rare non-ASCII chars for the paragraph
symbol, a few typos, or in Fred's name. Given that Fred already uses
the non-accentuated form at other places like on the public list,
let's uniformize all this and make sure the code displays equally
everywhere.
This is the pool equivalent of commit 97ea9c49f ("BUG/MEDIUM: fd: always
align fdtab[] to 64 bytes"). After a careful code review, it happens that
the pool heads are the other structures allocated with malloc/calloc that
claim to be aligned to a size larger than what the allocator can offer.
While no issue was reported on them, no memset() is performed and no type
is large, this is a problem waiting to happen, so better fix it. In
addition, it's relatively easy to do by storing the allocation address
inside the pool_head itself and use it at free() time. Finally, threads
might benefit from the fact that the caches will really be aligned and
that there will be no false sharing.
This should be backported to all versions where it applies easily.
Many inline functions involve some BUG_ON() calls and because of the
partial complexity of the functions, they're not inlined anymore (e.g.
co_data()). The reason is that the expression instantiates the message,
its size, sometimes a counter, then the atomic OR to taint the process,
and the back trace. That can be a lot for an inline function and most
of it is always the same.
This commit modifies this by delegating the common parts to a dedicated
function "complain()" that takes care of updating the counter if needed,
writing the message and measuring its length, and tainting the process.
This way the caller only has to check a condition, pass a pointer to the
preset message, and the info about the type (bug or warn) for the tainting,
then decide whether to dump or crash. Note that this part could also be
moved to the function but resulted in complain() always being at the top
of the stack, which didn't seem like an improvement.
Thanks to these changes, the BUG_ON() calls do not result in uninlining
functions anymore and the overall code size was reduced by 60 to 120 kB
depending on the build options.
This one is referenced in initcalls by its pointer, it makes no sense

gcc 6 continues its saga with excessive reports of null-deref warnings.
This time it was in the IS_HTX_CS() macro. Let's use __cs_conn() after
cs_conn() was checked.
Do not distinguish the direction (TX/RX) when settings TLS secrets flags.
There is not such a distinction in the RFC 9001.
Assemble them at the same level: at the upper context level.
Wakeup asap the timer task when setting its timer in the past.
Take also the opportunity of this patch to make simplify quic_pto_pktns():

We had several warnings when building haproxy 2.5.4 with
old openssl 1.0.1e. This version of openssl is the latest
available in EOL centos 6.
include/haproxy/openssl-compat.h:157:51: \
warning: "LIBRESSL_VERSION_NUMBER" is not defined
This patch fixed the build. It changes the #if condition,
as done in other similar parts of openssl-compat.h.
Reorganize the Rx path for STREAM frames on bidirectional streams. A new
function qcc_recv is implemented on the MUX. It will handle the STREAM
frames copy and offset calculation from transport to MUX.
Another function named qcc_decode_qcs from the MUX can be called by
transport each time new STREAM data has been copied.
The architecture is now cleaner with the MUX layer in charge of parsing
the STREAM frames offsets. This is required to be able to implement the
flow-control on the MUX layer.
Note that as a convenience, a STREAM frame is not partially copied to
the MUX buffer. This simplify the implementation for the moment but it
may change in the future to optimize the STREAM frames handling.
For the moment, only bidirectional streams benefit from this change. In
the future, it may be extended to unidirectional streams to unify the
STREAM frames processing.
FIN flag on a STREAM frame was not detected if the frame was previously
buffered on qcs.rx.frms before being handled.
To fix this, copy the fin field from the quic_stream instance to
quic_rx_strm_frm. This is required to properly notify the FIN flag on
qc_treat_rx_strm_frms for the MUX layer.
Without this fix, the request channel might be left opened after the
last STREAM frame reception if there is out-of-order frames on the Rx
path.
This flag is set when the STREAM frame with FIN set has been received on
a qcs instance. For now, this is only used as a BUG_ON guard to prevent
against multiple frames with FIN set. It will also be useful when
reorganize the RX path and move some of its code in the mux.
The new macro was introduced with commit 86bcc5308 ("DEBUG: implement 4
levels of choices between warn and crash.") but some older compilers can
complain that we test the value when the macro is not defined despite
having already been checked in a previous #if directive. Let's just
repeat the test for the definition.
693b23bb1 ("MEDIUM: tree-wide: Use unsafe conn-stream API when it is
relevant") introduced a regression in DEBUG_STRICT mode because some BUG_ON
conditions were inverted. It should ok now.
In addition, ALREADY_CHECKED macro was removed from appctx_wakeup() function
because it is useless now.
This way si_*_recv() and si_*_sned() API are defined the same
way. si_sync_snd/si_sync_recv are both exported and defined in the C
file. And si_cs_send/si_cs_recv are private and only used by
stream-interface internals.
The unsafe conn-stream API (__cs_*) is now used when we are sure the good
endpoint or application is attached to the conn-stream. This avoids compiler
warnings about possible null derefs. It also simplify the code and clear up
any ambiguity about manipulated entities.
Depending on the context, we know the endpoint or the application attached
to the conn_stream is defined and we know its type. However, having
accessors testing the endpoint or the application may lead the compiler to
report possible null derefs here and there. The alternative is to add
useless tests or use ALREAD_CHECKED/DISGUISE macros. It is tedious and
inelegant.
So now, similarily to the ob API, the safe API, testing
endpoint/application, relies on an unsafe one (same name prefixed with
'__'). This way, any caller may use the unsafe API when it is relevant.
In addition, there is no reason to test the conn-stream itself. It is the
caller responsibility to be sure there is a conn-stream to get its endpoint
or its application. And most of type, we are sure to have a conn-stream.
A few functions such as c_adv(), c_rew(), co_set_data() or co_skip() got a
BUG_ON_HOT() to make sure they're not used to push more data than available
in the buffer. Note that with HTX the margin can be high and will less easily
trigger, but the goal is to detect a misuse early enough.
co_data() should never be called with a wrong c->output. At least it never
happens in regtests, but we're adding a CHECK_IF_HOT() there to avoid crashing
but report it if it ever happened when the hot path checks are enabled.
The use of co_set_data() should be strictly limited to setting the amount
of existing data to be transmitted. It ought not be used to decrement the
output after the data have left the buffer, because doing so involves
performing incorrect calculations using co_data() that still comprises
data that are not in the buffer anymore. Let's use c_rew() for this, which
is made exactly for this purpose, i.e. decrement c->output by as much as
requested. This is cleaner, faster, and will permit stricter checks.
A number of tests are now performed in low-level buffer management
functions to verify that we're not appending data to a full buffer
for example, or that the buffer passed in argument is consistent in
that its data don't outweigh its size. The few functions that already
involve memcpy() or memmove() instead got a BUG_ON() that will always
be enabled, since the overhead remains minimalist.
The buffer ring management functions br_* were all stuffed with BUG_ON()
statements that never triggered and that are on some fast paths (e.g. in
mux_h2). Let's turn them to BUG_ON_HOT() instead.
Two new BUG_ON variants, BUG_ON_HOT() and CHECK_IF_HOT() are introduced
to debug hot paths (such as low-level API functions). These ones must
not be enabled by default as they would significantly affect performance
but they may be enabled by setting DEBUG_STRICT to a value above 1. In
this case, DEBUG_STRICT_ACTION is mostly respected with a small change,
which is that the no_crash variant of BUG_ON() isn't turned to a regular
warning but to a one-time warning so as not to spam with warnings in a
hot path. It is for this reason that there is no WARN_ON_HOT().
We used to have DEBUG_STRICT_NOCRASH to disable crashes on BUG_ON().
Now we have other levels (WARN_ON(), CHECK_IF()) so we need something
finer-grained.
This patch introduces DEBUG_STRICT_ACTION which takes an integer value.
0 disables crashes and is the equivalent of DEBUG_STRICT_NOCRASH. 1 is
the default and only enables crashes on BUG_ON(). 2 also enables crashes
on WARN_ON(), and 3 also enables warnings on CHECK_IF(), and is suited
to developers and CI.
Now we'll explicitly mention if the test was a bug/warn/check, and
"FATAL" is only displayed when the process crashes. The non-crashing
BUG_ON() also suggests to report to developers.
The only reason for warning once is to check if a condition really
happens. Let's use a term that better translates the intent, that's
important when reading the code.
Simplify the data manipulation of STREAM frames on TX. Only stream data
and len field are used to generate a valid STREAM frames from the
buffer. Do not use the offset field, which required that a single buffer
instance should be shared for every frames on a single stream.
This one will maintain a static counter per call place and will only
emit the warning on the first call. It may be used to invite users to
report an unexpected event without spamming them with messages.
This is the same as BUG_ON() except that it never crashes and only emits
a warning and a backtrace, inviting users to report the problem. This will
be usable for non-fatal issues that should not happen and need to be fixed.
This way the BUG_ON() when using DEBUG_STRICT_NOCRASH is effectively an
equivalent of WARN_ON().
The purpose is to make the program die at this point, so let's help the
compiler optimise the code (especially in sensitive areas) by telling it
that ABORT_NOW() does not return. This reduces the overall code size by
~0.5%.
The BUG_ON() macro handling is complicated because it relies on a
conditional CRASH_NOW() macro whose definition depends on DEBUG_STRICT
and DEBUG_STRICT_NOCRASH. Let's rethink the whole thing differently,
and instead make the underlying _BUG_ON() macro take a crash argument
to decide whether to crash or not, as well as a prefix and a suffix for
the message, that will allow to distinguish between variants. Now the
suffix is set to a message explaining we don't crash when needed.
This also allows to get rid of the CRASH_NOW() macro and to define
much simpler new macros.
The functions needed to manipulate the "tainted" flags were located in
too high a level to be callable from the lower code layers. Let's move
them to bug.h.
Since recent changes related to the conn-stream/stream-interface
refactoring, GCC reports potential null pointer dereferences when we get the
appctx, the stream or the stream-interface from the conn-strem. Of course,
depending on the time, these entities may be null. But at many places, we
know they are defined and it is safe to get them without any check. Thus, we
use ALREADY_CHECKED() macro to silent these warnings.
Note that the refactoring is unfinished, so it is not a real issue for now.
cs_detach_app() function is added to detach an app from a conn-stream. And
now, both cs_detach_app() and cs_detach_endp() release the conn-stream when
both the app and the endpoint are detached.
Thanks to all previous changes, it is now possible to move the
stream-interface into the conn-stream. To do so, some SI functions are
removed and their conn-stream counterparts are added. In addition, the
conn-stream is now responsible to create and release the
stream-interface. While the stream-interfaces were inlined in the stream
structure, there is now a pointer in the conn-stream. stream-interfaces are
now dynamically allocated. Thus a dedicated pool is added. It is a temporary
change because, at the end, the stream-interface structure will most
probably disappear.
Because cs_detach() is releated to the endpoint only, the function is
renamed. The main purpose of this patch is to be able to add a function to
detach the conn-stream from the application.
To be able to move the stream-interface from the stream to the conn-stream,
all access to the SI is done via the conn-stream. This patch is limited to
the stream part.
To be able to move the stream-interface from the stream to the conn-stream,
all access to the SI is done via the conn-stream. This patch is limited to
the stream-interface part.
frontend and backend conn-streams are now directly accesible from the
stream. This way, and with some other changes, it will be possible to remove
the stream-interfaces from the stream structure.
In the same way the conn-stream has a pointer to the stream endpoint , this
patch adds a pointer to the application entity in the conn-stream
structure. For now, it is a stream or a health-check. It is mandatory to
merge the stream-interface with the conn-stream.
Because appctx is now an endpoint of the conn-stream, there is no reason to
still have the stream-interface as appctx owner. Thus, the conn-stream is
now the appctx owner.
Thanks to previous changes, it is now possible to set an appctx as endpoint
for a conn-stream. This means the appctx is no longer linked to the
stream-interface but to the conn-stream. Thus, a pointer to the conn-stream
is explicitly stored in the stream-interface. The endpoint (connection or
appctx) can be retrieved via the conn-stream.
To be able to handle applets as a conn-stream endpoint, we must be prepared
to handle different types of endpoints. First of all, the conn-strream's
connection must no longer be used directly.
The backend conn-stream is no longer released on connection retry. This
means the conn-stream is detached from the underlying connection but not
released. Thus, during connection retries, the stream has always an
allocated conn-stream with no connection. All previous changes were made to
make this possible.
Note that .attach() mux callback function was changed to get the conn-stream
as argument. The muxes are no longer responsible to create the conn-stream
when a server connection is attached to a stream.
si_attach_conn() function should be used to attach a connection to a
stream-interface. It created a conn-stream if necessary. This function is
mandatory to be able to keep the backend conn-stream during connection
retries.
si_reset_endpoint() function may be used to reset the SI's endpoint without
releasing the conn-stream if the endpoint is a connection. If the endpoint
is an appctx, it is released. This change is mandatory to merge the SI and
the CS and keep the backend conn-stream attached to the stream during
connection retries.
cs_detach() function is added to detach a conn-stream from the underlying
connection. This part will evovle to handle applets too. Concretely,
cs_destroy() is split to detach the conn-stream from its endpoint, via
cs_detach(), and then, the conn-stream is released, via cs_free().
The conn-stream will progressively replace the stream-interface. Thus, a
stream will have to allocate the backend conn-stream during its
creation. This means it will be possible to have a conn-stream with no
connection. To prepare this change, we test the conn-stream's connection
when we retrieve it.
Stream-interfaces will be moved in the conn-stream and the appctx will be
moved at the same level than the muxes. Idea is to merge the
stream-interface and the conn-stream and have a better symmetry between the
muxes and the applets. To limit bugs during this refactoring, when the SI
endpoint is released, the appctx case is handled first.
New function pool_parse_debugging() is now dedicated to parsing options
of -dM. For now it only handles the optional memory poisonning byte, but
the function may already return an informative message to be printed for
help, a warning or an error. This way we'll reuse it for the settings
that will be needed for configurable debugging options.
The STG_REGISTER init level is used to register known keywords and
protocol stacks. It must be called earlier because some of the init
code already relies on it to be known. For example, "haproxy -vv"
for now is constrained to start very late only because of this.
This patch moves it between STG_LOCK and STG_ALLOC, which is fine as
it's used for static registration.
Now -dM will set POOL_DBG_POISON for consistency with the rest of the
pool debugging options. As such now we only check for the new flag,
which allows the default value to be preset.
This option used to allow to store a marker at the end of the area, which
was used as a canary and detection against wrong freeing while the object
is used, and as a pointer to the last pool_free() caller when back in cache.
Now that we can compute the offsets at runtime, let's check it at run time
and continue the code simplification.
This option used to allow to store a pointer to the caller of the last
pool_alloc() or pool_free() at the end of the area. Now that we can
compute the offsets at runtime, let's check it at run time and continue
the code simplification. In __pool_alloc() we now always calculate the
return address (which is quite cheap), and the POOL_DEBUG_TRACE_CALLER()
calls are conditionned on the status of debugging option.
This macro is build-time dependent and is almost unused, yet where it
cannot easily be avoided. Now that we store the distinction between
pool->size and pool->alloc_sz, we don't need to maintain it and we
can instead compute it on the fly when creating a pool. This is what
this patch does. The variables are for now pretty static, but this is
sufficient to kill the macro and will allow to set them more dynamically.
The allocated size is the visible size plus the extra storage. Since
for now we can store up to two extra elements (mark and tracer), it's
convenient because now we know that the mark is always stored at
->size, and the tracer is always before ->alloc_sz.
Like previous patches, this replaces the build-time code paths that were
conditionned by CONFIG_HAP_POOLS with runtime paths conditionned by
!POOL_DBG_NO_CACHE. One trivial test had to be added in the hot path in
__pool_alloc() to refrain from calling pool_get_from_cache(), and another
one in __pool_free() to avoid calling pool_put_to_cache().
All cache-specific functions were instrumented with a BUG_ON() to make
sure we never call them with cache disabled. Additionally the cache[]
array was not initialized (remains NULL) so that we can later drop it
if not needed. It's particularly huge and should be turned to dynamic
with a pointer to a per-thread area where all the objects are located.
This will solve the memory usage issue and will improve locality, or
even help better deal with NUMA machines once each thread uses its own
arena.
There were very few functions left that were specific to global pools,
and even the checks they used to participate to are not directly on the
most critical path so they can suffer an extra "if".
What's done now is that pool_releasable() always returns 0 when global
pools are disabled (like the one before) so that pool_evict_last_items()
never tries to place evicted objects there. As such there will never be
any object in the free list. However pool_refill_local_from_shared() is
bypassed when global pools are disabled so that we even avoid the atomic
loads from this function.
The default global setting is still adjusted based on the original
CONFIG_NO_GLOBAL_POOLS that is set depending on threads and the allocator.
The global executable only grew by 1.1kB by keeping this code enabled,
and the code is simplified and will later support runtime options.
The test to decide whether or not to enforce integrity checks on cached
objects is now enabled at runtime and conditionned by this new debugging
flag. While previously it was not a concern to inflate the code size by
keeping the two functions static, they were moved to pool.c to limit the
impact. In pool_get_from_cache(), the fast code path remains fast by
having both flags tested at once to open a slower branch when either
POOL_DBG_COLD_FIRST or POOL_DBG_INTEGRITY are set.
When enabling pools integrity checks, we usually prefer to allocate cold
objects first in order to maximize the time the objects spend in the
cache. In order to make this configurable at runtime, let's introduce
a new debugging flag to control this allocation order. It is currently
preset by the DEBUG_POOL_INTEGRITY build-time setting.
This test used to appear at a single location in create_pool() to
enable a check on the pool name or unconditionally merge similarly
sized pools.
This patch introduces POOL_DBG_DONT_MERGE and conditions the test on
this new runtime flag, that is preset according to the aforementioned
debugging option.
The fail-alloc test used to be enabled/disabled at build time using
the DEBUG_FAIL_ALLOC macro, but it happens that the cost of the test
is quite cheap and that it can be enabled as one of the pool_debugging
options.
This patch thus introduces the first POOL_DBG_FAIL_ALLOC option, whose
default value depends on DEBUG_FAIL_ALLOC. The mem_should_fail() function
is now always built, but it was made static since it's never used outside.
This read-mostly variable will be used at runtime to enable/disable
certain pool-debugging features and will be set by the command-line
parser. A future option -dP will take a number of debugging features
as arguments to configure this variable's contents.
Add the ability to set a "server timeout" on the httpclient with either
the httpclient_set_timeout() API or the timeout argument in a request.
Issue #1470.
This function was renderred obsolete by commit a0b5831ee ("MEDIUM: pools:
centralize cache eviction in a common function") which replaced its last
call inside the loop with a single call out of the loop to pool_releasable()
as introduced by commit 91a8e28f9 ("MINOR: pool: add a function to estimate
how many may be released at once"). Let's remove it before it becomes wrong
and used again.
In htx_copy_msg(), if the destination buffer is empty, we perform a raw copy
of the message instead of a copy block per block. But we must be sure the
destianation buffer was really allocated. In other word, to perform a raw
copy, the HTX message must be empty _AND_ it must have some free space
available.
This function is only used to copy an HTTP reply (for instance, an error or
a redirect) in the buffer of the response channel. For now, we are sure the
buffer was allocated because it is a pre-requisite to call stream
analyzers. However, it may be a source of bug in future.
This patch may be backported as far as 2.3.
Implement the stream rcv_buf operation on QUIC mux.
A new buffer is stored in qcs structure named app_buf. This new buffer
will contains HTX and will be filled for example on H3 DATA frame
parsing.
The rcv_buf operation transfer as much as possible data from the HTX
from app_buf to the conn-stream buffer. This is mainly identical to
mux-h2. This is required to support HTTP POST data.
Move the QUIC datagram handlers oustide of the receivers. Use a global
handler per-thread which is allocated on post-config. Implement a free
function on process deinit to avoid a memory leak.
Since the relaxation of the run-queue locks in 2.0 there has been a
very small but existing race between expired tasks and running tasks:
a task might be expiring and being woken up at the same time, on
different threads. This is protected against via the TASK_QUEUED and
TASK_RUNNING flags, but just after the task finishes executing, it
releases it TASK_RUNNING bit an only then it may go to task_queue().
This one will do nothing if the task's ->expire field is zero, but
if the field turns to zero between this test and the call to
__task_queue() then three things may happen:
- the task may remain in the WQ until the 24 next days if it's in
the future;
- the task may prevent any other task after it from expiring during
the 24 next days once it's queued
- if DEBUG_STRICT is set on 2.4 and above, an abort may happen
- since 2.2, if the task got killed in between, then we may
even requeue a freed task, causing random behaviour next time
it's found there, or possibly corrupting the tree if it gets
reinserted later.
The peers code is one call path that easily reproduces the case with
the ->expire field being reset, because it starts by setting it to
TICK_ETERNITY as the first thing when entering the task handler. But
other code parts also use multi-threaded tasks and rightfully expect
to be able to touch their expire field without causing trouble. No
trivial code path was found that would destroy such a shared task at
runtime, which already limits the risks.
This must be backported to 2.0.
Along recent evolutions of the pools, we've lost the ability to reliably
detect double-frees because while in the past the same pointer was being
used to chain the objects in the cache and to store the pool's address,
since 2.0 they're different so the pool's address is never overwritten on
free() and a double-free will rarely be detected.
This patch sets the caller's return address there. It can never be equal
to a pool's address and will help guess what was the previous call path.
It will not work on exotic architectures nor with very old compilers but
these are not the environments where we're trying to get detailed bug
reports, and this is not done by default anyway so we don't care about
this limitation. Note that depending on the inlining status of the
function, the result may differ but that's no big deal either.
A test by placing a double free of an appctx inside the release handler
itself successfully reported the trouble during appctx_free() and showed
that the return address was in stream_int_shutw_applet() (this one calls
the release handler).
During global eviction we're visiting nodes from the LRU tail and we
determine their pool cache head and their pool. In order to make sure
we never mess up, let's add some backwards pointer to the thread number
and pool from the pool_cache_head. It's 64-byte aligned anyway so we're
not wasting space and it helps for debugging and will prevent memory
corruption the earliest possible.
When destroying a pool (e.g. at exit or when resizing buffers), it's
important to try to free all their local objects otherwise we can leave
some in the cache. This is particularly visible when changing "bufsize",
because "show pools" will then show two "trash" pools, one of which
contains a single object in cache (which is fortunately not reachable).
In all cases this happens while single-threaded so that's easy to do,
we just have to do it on the current thread.
The easiest way to do this is to pass an extra argument to function
pool_evict_from_local_cache() to force a full flush instead of a
partial one.
This can probably be backported to about all branches where this
applies, but at least 2.4 needs it.
DH structure is a low-level one that should not be used anymore with
OpenSSLv3. All functions working on DH were marked as deprecated and
this patch replaces the ones we used with new APIs recommended in
OpenSSLv3, be it in the migration guide or the multiple new manpages
they created.
This patch replaces all mentions of the DH type by the HASSL_DH one,
which will be replaced by EVP_PKEY with OpenSSLv3 and will remain DH on
older versions. It also uses all the newly created helper functions that
enable for instance to load DH parameters from a file into an EVP_PKEY,
or to set DH parameters into an SSL_CTX for use in a DHE negotiation.
The following deprecated functions will effectively disappear when
building with OpenSSLv3 : DH_set0_pqg, PEM_read_bio_DHparams, DH_new,
DH_free, DH_up_ref, SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh.
Starting from OpenSSLv3, we won't rely on the
SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh_callback mechanism so we will need to know the DH
size we want to use during init. In order for the default DH param size
to be used when no RSA or DSA private key can be found for a given bind
line, we will need to know the default size we want to use (which was
not possible the way the code was built, since the global default dh
size was set too late.
This new function makes use of the new OpenSSLv3 APIs that should be
used to load DH parameters from a file (or a BIO in this case) and that
should replace the deprecated PEM_read_bio_DHparams function.
Note that this function returns an EVP_PKEY when using OpenSSLv3 since
they now advise against using low level structures such as DH ones.
This helper function is not used yet so this commit should be stricly
iso-functional, regardless of the OpenSSL version.
The DH mechanism relies on DH objects that are low-level structures that
should not be used anymore starting from OpenSSLv3. With the newer
OpenSSL version, we should only use higher level EVP_PKEY objects.
Since enforcing this new logic to older versions of OpenSSL could be
dangerous (or plain impossible), we will keeptwo versions of the code
when required.
The HASSL_DH define will allow to unify some of the functions that were
created for DH use without having to add too many duplicated blocks of
code depending on the OpenSSL version.
ERR_func_error_string does not return anything anymore with OpenSSLv3,
it can be replaced by ERR_peek_error_func which did not exist on
previous versions.
Rename quic_conn_to_buf to qc_snd_buf and remove it from xprt ops. This
is done to reflect the true usage of this function which is only a
wrapper around sendto but cannot be called by the upper layer.
qc_snd_buf is moved in quic-sock because to mark its link with
quic_sock_fd_iocb which is the recvfrom counterpart.
SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_cb was deprecated on OpenSSLv3 because it
uses an HMAC_pointer which is deprecated as well. According to the v3's
manpage it should be replaced by SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_evp_cb
which uses a EVP_MAC_CTX pointer.
This new callback was introduced in OpenSSLv3 so we need to keep the two
calls in the source base and to split the usage depending on the OpenSSL
version.
"mcli-debug-mode on" enables every command that were meant for a worker,
on the CLI of the master. Which mean you can issue, "show fd", show
stat" in order to debug the MASTER proxy.
You can also combine it with "expert-mode on" or "experimental-mode on"
to access to more commands.
Allow to set the master CLI in expert or experimental mode. No command
within the master are unlocked yet, but it gives the ability to send
expert or experimental commands to the workers.
echo "@1; experimental-mode on; del server be1/s2" | socat /var/run/haproxy.master -
echo "experimental-mode on; @1 del server be1/s2" | socat /var/run/haproxy.master -
We'll need to lock the listener a little bit more during accept() and
tests show that a spinlock is a massive performance killer, so let's
first switch to an rwlock for this lock.
This patch might have to be backported for the next patch to work, and
if so, the change is almost mechanical (look for LISTENER_LOCK), but do
not forget about the few HA_SPIN_INIT() in the file. There's no reference
to this lock outside of listener.c nor listener-t.h.
This task will be used to schedule a timer when there is no activity on
the mux. The timeout is set via the "timeout client" from the
configuration file.
The timeout task process schedule the timeout only on specific
conditions. Currently, it's done if there is no opened bidirectional
stream.
For now this task is not used. This will be implemented in the following
commit.
It's among the cases that would provoke memory corruption, let's add
some tests against negative FDs and those larger than the table. This
must never ever happen and would currently result in silent corruption
or a crash. Better have a noticeable one exhibiting the call chain if
that were to happen.
We add a new flag to mark a connection as already enqueued for acception.
This is useful for 0-RTT session where a connection is first enqueued for
acception as soon as 0-RTT RX secrets could be derived. Then as for any other
connection, we could accept one more time this connection after handshake
completion which lead to very bad side effects.
Thank you to Amaury for this nice patch.
When starting HAProxy in master-worker, the master pre-allocate a struct
mworker_proc and do a socketpair() before the configuration parsing. If
the configuration loading failed, the FD are never closed because they
aren't part of listener, they are not even in the fdtab.
This patch fixes the issue by cleaning the mworker_proc structure that
were not asssigned a process, and closing its FDs.
Must be backported as far as 2.0, the srv_drop() only frees the memory
and could be dropped since it's done before an exec().
There were a few casts of list* to mt_list* that were upsetting some
old compilers (not sure about the effect on others). We had created
list_to_mt_list() purposely for this, let's use it instead of applying
this cast.
At a few places in the code the switch/case ond flags are tested against
64-bit constants without explicitly being marked as long long. Some
32-bit compilers complain that the constant is too large for a long, and
other likely always use long long there. Better fix that as it's uncertain
what others which do not complain do. It may be backported to avoid doubts
on uncommon platforms if needed, as it touches very few areas.
These functions are declared as external functions in check.h and
as inline functions in check.c. Let's move them as static inline in
check.h. This appeared in 2.4 with the following commits:
4858fb2e1 ("MEDIUM: check: align agentaddr and agentport behaviour")
1c921cd74 ("BUG/MINOR: check: consitent way to set agentaddr")
While harmless (it only triggers build warnings with some gcc 4.x),
it should probably be backported where the paches above are present
to keep the code consistent.
The man page indicates that CPU_AND() and CPU_ASSIGN() take a variable,
not a const on the source, even though it doesn't make much sense. But
with older libcs, this triggers a build warning:
src/cpuset.c: In function 'ha_cpuset_and':
src/cpuset.c:53: warning: initialization discards qualifiers from pointer target type
src/cpuset.c: In function 'ha_cpuset_assign':
src/cpuset.c:101: warning: initialization discards qualifiers from pointer target type
Better stick stricter to the documented API as this is really harmless
here. There's no need to backport it (unless build issues are reported,
which is quite unlikely).
We have an implementation of atomic ops for older versions of gcc that
do not provide the __builtin_* API (< 4.4). Recent changes to the pools
broke that in pool_releasable() by having a load from a const pointer,
which doesn't work there due to a temporary local variable that is
declared then assigned. Let's make use of a compount statement to assign
it a value when declaring it.
There's no need to backport this.
The startup code used to scan the list of unused sockets retrieved from
an older process, and to close them one by one. This also required that
the knowledge of the internal storage of these temporary sockets was
known from outside sock.c and that the code was copy-pasted at every
call place.
This patch moves this into sock.c under the name
sock_drop_unused_old_sockets(), and removes the xfer_sock_list
definition from sock.h since the rest of the code doesn't need to know
this.
This cleanup is minimal and preliminary to a future fix that will need
to be backported to all versions featuring FD transfers over the CLI.
Do not use an extra DCID parameter on new_quic_cid to be able to
associated a new generated CID to a thread ID. Simply do the computation
inside the function. The API is cleaner this way.
This also has the effects to improve the apparent randomness of CIDs.
With the previous version the first byte of all CIDs are identical for a
connection which could lead to privacy issue. This version may not be
totally perfect on this aspect but it improves the situation.
The CID trees are no more attached to the listener receiver but to the
underlying datagram handlers (one by thread) which run always on the same thread.
So, any operation on these trees do not require any locking.
We copy the first octet of the original destination connection ID to any CID for
the connection calling new_quic_cid(). So this patch modifies only this function
to take a dcid as passed parameter.
Rename quic_lstnr_dgram_read() to quic_lstnr_dgram_dispatch() to reflect its new role.
After calling this latter, the sock i/o handler must consume the buffer only if
the datagram it received is detected as wrong by quic_lstnr_dgram_dispatch().
The datagram handler task mark the datagram as consumed atomically setting ->buf
to NULL value. The sock i/o handler is responsible of flushing its RX buffer
before using it. It also keeps a datagram among the consumed ones so that
to pass it to quic_lstnr_dgram_dispatch() and prevent it from allocating a new one.
As mentionned in the comment, the tx_qrings and rxbufs members of
receiver struct must be pointers to pointers!
Modify the functions responsible of their allocations consequently.
Note that this code could work because sizeof rxbuf and sizeof tx_qrings
are greater than the size of pointer!
The quic_dgram_ctx struct has been replaced by quic_dgram struct.
There is no need to keek a typedef for a pointer to function since we
converted the UDP datagram parser (quic_dgram_read()) into a task.
quic_dgram_read() parses all the QUIC packets from a UDP datagram. It is the best
candidate to be converted into a task, because is processing data unit is the UDP
datagram received by the QUIC sock i/o handler. If correct, this datagram is
added to the context of a task, quic_lstnr_dghdlr(), a conversion of quic_dgram_read()
into a task. This task pop a datagram from an mt_list and passes it among to
the packet handler (quic_lstnr_pkt_rcv()).
Modify the quic_dgram struct to play the role of the old quic_dgram_ctx struct when
passed to quic_lstnr_pkt_rcv().
Modify the datagram handlers allocation to set their tasks to quic_lstnr_dghdlr().
Add quic_dghdlr new struct do define datagram handler tasks, one by thread.
Allocate them and attach them to the listener receiver part calling
quic_alloc_dghdlrs_listener() newly implemented function.
Add quic_dgram new structure to store information about datagrams received
by the sock I/O handler (quic_sock_fd_iocb) and its associated pool.
Implement quic_get_dgram_dcid() to retrieve the datagram DCID which must
be the same for all the packets in the datagram.
Modify quic_lstnr_dgram_read() called by the sock I/O handler to allocate
a quic_dgram each time a correct datagram is found and add it to the sock I/O
handler rxbuf dgram list.
Define the offsets of the DCIDs from the beginning of a QUIC packets.
Note that they must always be present. As QUIC servers, QUIC haproxy listeners
always use a CID, source CID on the haproxy side, which is a destination ID on the
peer side.
This is to be sure xprt functions do not manipulate the buffer struct
passed as parameter to quic_lstnr_dgram_read() from low level datagram
I/O callback in quic_sock.c (quic_sock_fd_iocb()).
In github bug #1517, Mike Lothian reported instant crashes on startup
on RHEL8 + gcc-11 that appeared with 2.4 when allocating a proxy.
The analysis brought us down to the THREAD_ALIGN() entries that were
placed inside the "server" struct to avoid false sharing of cache lines.
It turns out that some modern gcc make use of aligned vector operations
to manipulate some fields (e.g. memset() etc) and that these structures
allocated using malloc() are not necessarily aligned, hence the crash.
The compiler is allowed to do that because the structure claims to be
aligned. The problem is in fact that the alignment propagates to other
structures that embed it. While most of these structures are used as
statically allocated variables, some are dynamic and cannot use that.
A deeper analysis showed that struct server does this, propagates to
struct proxy, which propagates to struct spoe_config, all of which
are allocated using malloc/calloc.
A better approach would consist in usins posix_memalign(), but this one
is not available everywhere and will either need to be reimplemented
less efficiently (by always wasting 64 bytes before the area), or a
few functions will have to be specifically written to deal with the
few structures that are dynamically allocated.
But the deeper problem that remains is that it is difficult to track
structure alignment, as there's no available warning to check this.
For the long term we'll probably have to create a macro such as
"struct_malloc()" etc which takes a type and enforces an alignment
based on the one of this type. This also means propagating that to
pools as well, and it's not a tiny task.
For now, let's get rid of the forced alignment in struct server, and
replace it with extra padding. By punching 63-byte holes, we can keep
areas on separate cache lines. Doing so moderately increases the size
of the "server" structure (~+6%) but that's the best short-term option
and it's easily backportable.
This will have to be backported as far as 2.4.
Thanks to Mike for the detailed report.
Do not proceed to direct accept when creating a new quic_conn. Wait for
the QUIC handshake to succeeds to insert the quic_conn in the accept
queue. A tasklet is then woken up to call listener_accept to accept the
quic_conn.
The most important effect is that the connection/mux layers are not
instantiated at the same time as the quic_conn. This forces to delay
some process to be sure that the mux is allocated :
* initialization of mux transport parameters
* installation of the app-ops
Also, the mux instance is not checked now to wake up the quic_conn
tasklet. This is safe because the xprt-quic code is now ready to handle
the absence of the connection/mux layers.
Note that this commit has a deep impact as it changes significantly the
lower QUIC architecture. Most notably, it breaks the 0-RTT feature.
Create a new structure li_per_thread. This is uses as an array in the
listener structure, with an entry allocated per thread. The new function
li_init_per_thr is responsible of the allocation.
For now, li_per_thread contains fields only useful for QUIC listeners.
As such, it is only allocated for QUIC listeners.
Create a new type quic_accept_queue to handle QUIC connections accept.
A queue will be allocated for each thread. It contains a list of
listeners which contains at least one quic_conn ready to be accepted and
the tasklet to run listener_accept for these listeners.
Mark QUIC listeners with the flag LI_F_QUIC_LISTENER. It is set by the
proto-quic layer on the add listener callback. This allows to override
more clearly the accept callback on quic_session_accept.
Define a new field in listener structure named flags.
For the moment, no flag is defined. This will be notably useful to
differentiate QUIC listeners with the implementation of a QUIC conn
accept queue.
Remove usage of connection in quic_conn_from_buf. As connection and
quic_conn are decorrelated, it is not logical to check connection flags
when using sendto.
This require to store the L4 peer address in quic_conn to be able to use
sendto.
This change is required to delay allocation of connection.
This flag is named RX_F_LOCAL_ACCEPT. It will be activated for special
receivers where connection balancing to threads is already handle
outside of listener_accept, such as with QUIC listeners.
Add a new function in mux-quic to install app-ops. For now this
functions is called during the ALPN negotiation of the QUIC handshake.
This change will be useful when the connection accept queue will be
implemented. It will be thus required to delay the app-ops
initialization because the mux won't be allocated anymore during the
QUIC handshake.
Define a new enum to represent the status of the mux/connection layer
above a quic_conn. This is important to know if it's possible to handle
application data, or if it should be buffered or dropped.
This new option, when set, will cause the callers of pool_alloc() and
pool_free() to be recorded into an extra area in the pool that is expected
to be helpful for later inspection (e.g. in core dumps). For example it
may help figure that an object was released to a pool with some sub-fields
not yet released or that a use-after-free happened after releasing it,
with an immediate indication about the exact line of code that released
it (possibly an error path).
This only works with the per-thread cache, and even objects refilled from
the shared pool directly into the thread-local cache will have a NULL
there. That's not an issue since these objects have not yet been freed.
It's worth noting that pool_alloc_nocache() continues not to set any
caller pointer (e.g. when the cache is empty) because that would require
a possibly undesirable API change.
The extra cost is minimal (one pointer per object) and this completes
well with DEBUG_POOL_INTEGRITY.
This adds a caller to pool_put_to_cache() and pool_get_from_cache()
which will optionally be used to pass a pointer to their callers. For
now it's not used, only the API is extended to support this pointer.
Here the idea is to calculate the POOL_EXTRA size that is appended at
the end of a pool object based on the sum of enabled optional fields
so that we can more easily compute offsets and sizes depending on build
options.
For this, POOL_EXTRA is replaced with POOL_EXTRA_MARK which itself is
set either to sizeof(void*) or zero depending on whether we enable
marking the origin pool or not upon allocation.
The pool_alloc() function was already a wrapper to __pool_alloc() which
was also inlined but took a set of flags. This latter was uninlined and
moved to pool.c, and pool_alloc()/pool_zalloc() turned to macros so that
they can more easily evolve to support debugging options.
The number of call places made this code grow over time and doing only
this change saved ~1% of the whole executable's size.
The pool_free() function has become a bit big over time due to the
extra consistency checks. It used to remain inline only to deal
cleanly with the NULL pointer free that's quite present on some
structures (e.g. in stream_free()).
Here we're splitting the function in two:
- __pool_free() does the inner block without the pointer test and
becomes a function ;
- pool_free() is now a macro that only checks the pointer and calls
__pool_free() if needed.
The use of a macro versus an inline function is only motivated by an
easier intrumentation of the code later.
With this change, the code size reduces by ~1%, which means that at
this point all pool_free() call places used to represent more than
1% of the total code size.
Allow to register quic_conn as ex-data in SSL callbacks. A new index is
used to identify it as ssl_qc_app_data_index.
Replace connection by quic_conn as SSL ex-data when initializing the QUIC
SSL session. When using SSL callbacks in QUIC context, the connection is
now NULL. Used quic_conn instead to retrieve the required parameters.

The same changes are conducted inside the QUIC SSL methods of xprt-quic
: connection instance usage is replaced by quic_conn.
Define a special accept cb for QUIC listeners to quic_session_accept().
This operation is conducted during the proto.add callback when creating
listeners.
A special care is now taken care when setting the standard callback
session_accept_fd() to not overwrite if already defined by the proto
layer.
When enabled, objects picked from the cache are checked for corruption
by comparing their contents against a pattern that was placed when they
were inserted into the cache. Objects are also allocated in the reverse
order, from the oldest one to the most recent, so as to maximize the
ability to detect such a corruption. The goal is to detect writes after
free (or possibly hardware memory corruptions). Contrary to DEBUG_UAF
this cannot detect reads after free, but may possibly detect later
corruptions and will not consume extra memory. The CPU usage will
increase a bit due to the cost of filling/checking the area and for the
preference for cold cache instead of hot cache, though not as much as
with DEBUG_UAF. This option is meant to be usable in production.
We have an anti-looping protection in process_stream() that detects bugs
that used to affect a few filters like compression in the past which
sometimes forgot to handle a read0 or a particular error, leaving a
thread looping at 100% CPU forever. When such a condition is detected,
an alert it emitted and the process is killed so that it can be replaced
by a sane one:

One problem with this detection is that it used to only count the call
rate because we weren't sure how to make it more accurate, but the
threshold was high enough to prevent accidental false positives.
There is actually one case that manages to trigger it, which is when
sending huge amounts of requests pipelined on the master CLI. Some
short requests such as "show version" are sufficient to be handled
extremely fast and to cause a wake up of an analyser to parse the
next request, then an applet to handle it, back and forth. But this
condition is not an error, since some data are being forwarded by
the stream, and it's easy to detect it.
This patch modifies the detection so that update_freq_ctr() only
applies to calls made without CF_READ_PARTIAL nor CF_WRITE_PARTIAL
set on any of the channels, which really indicates that nothing is
happening at all.
This is greatly sufficient and extremely effective, as the call above
is still caught (shutr being ignored by an analyser) while a loop on
the master CLI now has no effect. The "call_rate" field in the detailed
"show sess" output will now be much lower, except for bogus streams,
which may help spot them. This field is only there for developers
anyway so it's pretty fine to slightly adjust its meaning.
This patch could be backported to stable versions in case of reports
of such an issue, but as that's unlikely, it's not really needed.
There is no need to use an MT_LIST to store frames to send from a packet
number space. This is a reminiscence for multi-threading support for the TX part.
For now we have co_getline() which reads a buffer and stops on LF, and
co_getword() which reads a buffer and stops on one arbitrary delimiter.
But sometimes we'd need to stop on a set of delimiters (CR and LF, etc).
This patch adds a new function co_getdelim() which takes a set of delimiters
as a string, and constructs a small map (32 bytes) that's looked up during
parsing to stop after the first delimiter found within the set. It also
supports an optional escape character that skips a delimiter (typically a
backslash). For the rest it works exactly like the two other variants.
During 2.4-dev, fault injection was enabled for cached pools with commit
207c09509 ("MINOR: pools: move the fault injector to __pool_alloc()"),
except that the condition for CONFIG_HAP_POOLS still depended on
DEBUG_FAIL_ALLOC not being set, which limits the usability to cases
where the define is set by hand. Let's remove it from the equation as
this is not a constraint anymore. While a bit old, there's no need to
backport this as it's only used during development.
Implement the emission of Retry packets. These packets are emitted in
response to Initial from clients without token. The token from the Retry
packet contains the ODCID from the Initial packet.
By default, Retry packet emission is disabled and the handshake can
continue without address validation. To enable Retry, a new bind option
has been defined named "quic-force-retry". If set, the handshake must be
conducted only after receiving a token in the Initial packet.
Implement the parsing of token from Initial packets. It is expected that
the token contains a CID which is the DCID from the Initial packet
received from the client without token which triggers a Retry packet.
This CID is then used for transport parameters.
Note that at the moment Retry packet emission is not implemented. This
will be achieved in a following commit.
Implement a new QUIC TLS related function
quic_tls_generate_retry_integrity_tag(). This function can be used to
calculate the AEAD tag of a Retry packet.
If an error is raised during the ClientHello callback on the server side
(ssl_sock_switchctx_cbk), the servername callback won't be called and
the client's SNI will not be saved in the SSL context. But since we use
the SSL_get_servername function to return this SNI in the ssl_fc_sni
sample fetch, that means that in case of error, such as an SNI mismatch
with a frontend having the strict-sni option enabled, the sample fetch
would not work (making strict-sni related errors hard to debug).
This patch fixes that by storing the SNI as an ex_data in the SSL
context in case the ClientHello callback returns an error. This way the
sample fetch can fallback to getting the SNI this way. It will still
first call the SSL_get_servername function first since it is the proper
way of getting a client's SNI when the handshake succeeded.
In order to avoid memory allocations are runtime into this highly used
runtime function, a new memory pool was created to store those client
SNIs. Its entry size is set to 256 bytes since SNIs can't be longer than
255 characters.
This fixes GitHub #1484.
It can be backported in 2.5.
Avoid closing idle connections if a soft stop is in progress.
By default, idle connections will be closed during a soft stop. In some
environments, a client talking to the proxy may have prepared some idle
connections in order to send requests later. If there is no proper retry
on write errors, this can result in errors while haproxy is reloading.
Even though a proper implementation should retry on connection/write
errors, this option was introduced to support back compat with haproxy <
v2.4. Indeed before v2.4, we were waiting for a last request to be able
to add a "connection: close" header and advice the client to close the
connection.
In a real life example, this behavior was seen in AWS using the ALB in
front of a haproxy. The end result was ALB sending 502 during haproxy
reloads.
This patch was tested on haproxy v2.4, with a regular reload on the
process, and a constant trend of requests coming in. Before the patch,
we see regular 502 returned to the client; when activating the option,
the 502 disappear.
This patch should help fixing github issue #1506.
In order to unblock some v2.3 to v2.4 migraton, this patch should be
backported up to v2.4 branch.

When block by the anti-amplification limit, this is the responsability of the
client to unblock it sending new datagrams. On the server side, even if not
well parsed, such datagrams must trigger the PTO timer arming.
Switch back to QUIC_HS_ST_SERVER_HANDSHAKE state after a completed handshake
if acks must be send.
Also ensure we build post handshake frames only one time without using prev_st
variable and ensure we discard the Handshake packet number space only one time.
We need to be able to decrypt late Handshake packets after the TLS secret
keys have been discarded. If not the peer send Handshake packet which have
not been acknowledged. But for such packets, we discard the CRYPTO data.

MUST use the lesser of the acknowledgment delay and the peer's max_ack_delay

In ticket #1413, the transfer of FDs couldn't correctly work on alpine
linux. After a few tests with musl on another distribution it seems to
be a limitation of this libc.
The number of FD that could be sent per sendmsg was set to 253, which
does not seem to work with musl, decreasing it 252 seems to work
better, so lets set this value everywhere since it does not have that
much impact.
This must be backported in every maintained version.
Now that we support batched allocations/releases, it appears that we can
reach the same performance on H2 with shared pools and 256kB thread-local
cache as without shared pools, a fast allocator and 1MB thread-local cache.
With 512kB we're up to 10% faster on highly multiplexed H2 than without the
shared cache. This was tested on a 16-core ARM machine. Thus it's time to
slightly reduce the per-thread memory cost, which may also improve the
performance on machines with smaller L2 caches. It essentially reverts
commit f587003fe ("MINOR: pools: double the local pool cache size to 1 MB").
Since previous patch we can forcefully evict multiple objects from the
local cache, even when evicting basd on the LRU entries. Let's define
a compile-time configurable setting to batch releasing of objects. For
now we set this value to 8 items per round.
This is marked medium because eviction from the LRU will slightly change
in order to group the last items that are freed within a single cache
instead of accurately scanning only the oldest ones exactly in their
order of appearance. But this is required in order to evolve towards
batched removals.
In order to support batched allocations and releases, we'll need to
prepare chains of items linked together and that can be atomically
attached and detached at once. For this we implement a "down" pointer
in each pool_item that points to the other items belonging to the same
group. For now it's always NULL though freeing functions already check
them when trying to release everything.
At the moment we count the number of releasable objects to a shared pool
one by one. The way the formula is made allows to pre-compute the number
of available slots, so let's add a function for that so that callers can
do it once before iterating.
This takes into account the average number of entries needed and the
minimum availability per pool. The function is not used yet.
In order to support batch allocation from/to shared pools, we'll have to
support a specific representation for pool objects. The new pool_item
structure will be used for this. For now it only contains a "next"
pointer that matches exactly the current storage model. The few functions
that deal with the shared pool entries were adapted to use the new type.
There is no functionality difference at this point.
Instead of letting pool_put_to_shared_cache() pass the object to the
underlying OS layer when there's no more room, let's have the caller
check if the pool is full and either call pool_put_to_shared_cache()
or call pool_free_nocache().
Doing this sensibly simplifies the code as this function now only has
to deal with a pool and an item and only for cases where there are
local caches and shared caches. As the code was simplified and the
calls more isolated, the function was moved to pool.c.
Note that it's only called from pool_evict_from_local_cache{,s}() and
that a part of its logic might very well move there when dealing with
batches.
This function is used to know whether the shared pools are full or if we
can store more objects in them. Right now it cannot be used in a generic
way because when shared pools are not used it will return false, letting
one think pools can accept objects. Let's make one variant for each build
model.
At the moment pool_put_to_shared_cache() checks if the pool is crowded,
and if so it does the exact same job as pool_free_nocache(), otherwise
it adds the object there.
This patch rearranges the code so that the function is split in two and
either uses one path or the other, and always relies on pool_free_nocache()
in case we don't want to store the object. This way there will be a common
path with the variant not using the shared cache. The patch is better viewed
using git show -b since a whole block got reindented.
It's worth noting that there is a tiny difference now in the local cache
usage measurement, as the decrement of "used" used to be performed before
checking for pool_is_crowded() instead of being done after. This used to
result in always one less object being kept in the cache than what was
configured in minavail. The rearrangement of the code aligns it with
other call places.
Some changes affect the list element and others affect the pool stats.
Better group them together, as the compiler may not detect certain
possible optimizations after the casts made by the list macros.
One of the thread scaling challenges nowadays for the pools is the
contention on the shared caches. There's never any situation where we
have a shared cache and no local cache anymore, so we can technically
afford to transfer objects from the shared cache to the local cache
before returning them to the user via the regular path. This adds a
little bit more work per object per miss, but will permit batch
processing later.
This patch simply moves pool_get_from_shared_cache() to pool.c under
the new name pool_refill_local_from_shared(), and this function does
not return anything but it places the allocated object at the head of
the local cache.
The POOL_LINK macro is now only used for debugging, and it still requires
ifdefs around, which needlessly complicates the code. Let's replace it
and the calling code with a new pair of macros: POOL_DEBUG_SET_MARK()
and POOL_DEBUG_CHECK_MARK(), that respectively store and check the pool
pointer in the extra location at the end of the pool. This removes 4
pairs of ifdefs in the middle of the code.
This practice relying on POOL_LINK() dates from the era where there were
no pool caches, but given that the structures are a bit more complex now
and that pool caches do not make use of this feature, it is totally
useless since released elements have already been overwritten, and yet
it complicates the architecture and prevents from making simplifications
and optimizations. Let's just get rid of this feature. The pointer to
the origin pool is preserved though, as it helps detect incorrect frees
and serves as a canary for overflows.
The pools have become complex with the shared pools and the thread-local
caches, and the purpose of certain structures is never easy to grasp.
Let's add a bit of documentation there to save some long and painful
analysis to those touching that area.
This bug was introduced by d817dc73 ("MEDIUM: ssl: Load client
certificates in a ckch for backend servers") in which the creation of
the SSL_CTX for a server was moved to the configuration parser when
using a "crt" keyword instead of being done in ssl_sock_prepare_srv_ctx().
The patch 0498fa40 ("BUG/MINOR: ssl: Default-server configuration ignored by
server") made it worse by setting the same SSL_CTX for every servers
using a default-server. Resulting in any SSL option on a server applied
to every server in its backend.
This patch fixes the issue by reintroducing a string which store the
path of certificate inside the server structure, and loading the
certificate in ssl_sock_prepare_srv_ctx() again.
This is a quick fix to backport, a cleaner way can be achieve by always
creating the SSL_CTX in ssl_sock_prepare_srv_ctx() and splitting
properly the ssl_sock_load_srv_cert() function.
This patch fixes issue #1488.
Must be backported as far as 2.4.
This is a second help to dump loaded library names late at boot, once
external code has already been initialized. The purpose is to provide
a format that makes it easy to pass to "tar" to produce an archive
containing the executable and the list of dependencies. For example
if haproxy is started as "haproxy -f foo.cfg", a config check only
will suffice to quit before starting, "-q" will be used to disable
undesired output messages, and -dL will be use to dump libraries.
This will result in such a command to trivially produce a tarball
of loaded libraries:
./haproxy -q -c -dL -f foo.cfg | tar -T - -hzcf archive.tgz
Many times core dumps reported by users who experience trouble are
difficult to exploit due to missing system libraries. Sometimes,
having just a list of loaded libraries and their respective addresses
can already provide some hints about some problems.
This patch makes a step in that direction by adding a new "show libs"
command that will try to enumerate the list of object files that are
loaded in memory, relying on the dynamic linker for this. It may also
be used to detect that some foreign code embarks other undesired libs
(e.g. some external Lua modules).
At the moment it's only supported on glibc when USE_DL is set, but it's
implemented in a way that ought to make it reasonably easy to be extended
to other platforms.
We'll use this glibc function to dump loaded libs. It's been
available since glibc-2.2.4, and as it requires dlpi headers defined
in link.h, it implicitly relies on dlfcn, thus we condition it to
USE_DL. Other operating systems or libc might have different
dependencies so let's stick to the bare minimum for now.
A subtle change of target address allocation was introduced with commit
68cf3959b ("MINOR: backend: rewrite alloc of stream target address") in
2.4. Prior to this patch, a target address was allocated by function
assign_server_address() only if none was previously allocated. After
the change, the allocation became unconditional. Most of the time it
makes no difference, except when we pass multiple times through
connect_server() with SF_ADDR_SET cleared.
The most obvious fix would be to avoid allocating that address there
when already set, but the root cause is that since introduction of
dynamically allocated addresses, the SF_ADDR_SET flag lies. It can
be cleared during redispatch or during a queue redistribution without
the address being released.
This patch instead gives back all its correct meaning to SF_ADDR_SET
and guarantees that when not set no address is allocated, by freeing
that address at the few places the flag is cleared. The flag could
even be removed so that only the address is checked but that would
require to touch many areas for no benefit.
The easiest way to test it is to send requests to a proxy with l7
retries enabled, which forwards to a server returning 500:
defaults
mode http
timeout client 1s
timeout server 1s
timeout connect 1s
retry-on all-retryable-errors
retries 1
option redispatch
listen proxy
bind *:5000
server app 0.0.0.0:5001
frontend dummy-app
bind :5001
http-request return status 500
Issuing "show pools" on the CLI will show that pool "sockaddr" grows
as requests are redispatched, and remains stable with the fix. Even
"ps" will show that the process' RSS grows by ~160B per request.
This fix will need to be backported to 2.4. Note that before 2.5,
there's no strm->si[1].dst, strm->target_addr must be used instead.
This addresses github issue #1499. Special thanks to Daniil Leontiev
for providing a well-documented reproducer.
Implement a refcount on quic_conn instance. By default, the refcount is
0. Two functions are implemented to manipulate it.
* qc_conn_take() which increments the refcount
* qc_conn_drop() which decrements it. If the refcount is 0 *BEFORE*
the substraction, the instance is freed.
The refcount is incremented on retrieve_qc_conn_from_cid() or when
allocating a new quic_conn in qc_lstnr_pkt_rcv(). It is substracted most
notably by the xprt.close operation and at the end of
qc_lstnr_pkt_rcv(). The increments/decrements should be conducted under
the CID lock to guarantee thread-safety.
Add a pointer in quic_conn to its related ssl_sock_ctx. This change is
required to avoid to use the connection instance to access it.
This commit is part of the rearchitecture of xprt-quic layers and the
separation between xprt and connection instances. It will be notably
useful when the connection allocation will be delayed.
Some applications may send some information about the reason why they decided
to close a connection. Add them to CONNECTION_CLOSE frame traces.
Take the opportunity of this patch to shorten some too long variable names
without any impact.
Add traces about important frame types to chunk_tx_frm_appendf()
and call this function for any type of frame when parsing a packet.
Move it to quic_frame.c
Prepare trace support for quic_conn instances as argument. This will be
used by the xprt-quic layer in replacement of the connection.
This commit is part of the rearchitecture of xprt-quic layers and the
separation between xprt and connection instances.
Add const qualifier on arguments of several dump functions used in the
trace callback. This is required to be able to replace the first trace
argument by a quic_conn instance. The first argument is a const pointer
and so the members accessed through it must also be const.
Add a new member in ssl_sock_ctx structure to reference the quic_conn
instance if used in the QUIC stack. This member is initialized during
qc_conn_init().
This is needed to be able to access to the quic_conn without relying on
the connection instance. This commit is part of the rearchitecture of
xprt-quic layers and the separation between xprt and connection
instances.
Move qcc_get_qcs() function from xprt_quic.c to mux_quic.c. This
function is used to retrieve the qcs instance from a qcc with a stream
id. This clearly belongs to the mux-quic layer.
When a packet is present in the RX buffer at the first place
but without a null reference counter, there is no need to continue
to try to empty the buffer, it is sure the next packet will not
be at the first place!
With the DCID refactoring, the locking is more centralized. It is
possible to simplify the code for removal of a quic_conn from the ODCID
tree.
This operation can be conducted as soon as the connection has been
retrieved from the DCID tree, meaning that the peer now uses the final
DCID. Remove the bit to flag a connection for removal and just uses
ebmb_delete() on each sucessful lookup on the DCID tree. If the
quic_conn has already been removed, it is just a noop thanks to
eb_delete() implementation.
A new function named qc_retrieve_conn_from_cid() now contains all the
code to retrieve a connection from a DCID. It handle all type of packets
and centralize the locking on the ODCID/DCID trees.
This simplify the qc_lstnr_pkt_rcv() function.
If an UDP datagram contains multiple QUIC packets, they must all use the
same DCID. The datagram context is used partly for this.
To ensure this, a comparison was made on the dcid_node of DCID tree. As
this is a comparison based on pointer address, it can be faulty when
nodes are removed/readded on the same pointer address.
Replace this comparison by a proper comparison on the DCID data itself.
To this end, the dgram_ctx structure contains now a quic_cid member.
For first Initial packets, the socket source dest address is
concatenated to the DCID. This is used to be able to differentiate
possible collision between several clients which used the same ODCID.
Refactor the code to manage DCID and the concatenation with the address.
Before this, the concatenation was done on the quic_cid struct and its
<len> field incremented. In the code it is difficult to differentiate a
normal DCID with a DCID + address concatenated.
A new field <addrlen> has been added in the quic_cid struct. The <len>
field now only contains the size of the QUIC DCID. the <addrlen> is
first initialized to 0. If the address is concatenated, it will be
updated with the size of the concatenated address. This now means we
have to explicitely used either cid.len or cid.len + cid.addrlen to
access the DCID or the DCID + the address. The code should be clearer
thanks to this.
The field <odcid_len> in quic_rx_packet struct is now useless and has
been removed. However, a new parameter must be added to the
qc_new_conn() function to specify the size of the ODCID addrlen.
On haproxy implementation, generated DCID are on 8 bytes, the minimal
value allowed by the specification. Rename the constant representing
this size to inform that this is haproxy specific.
The packet number space flags were mixed with the connection level flags.
This leaded to ACK to be sent at the connection level without regard to
the underlying packet number space. But we want to be able to acknowleged
packets for a specific packet number space.
A client sends a 0-RTT data packet after an Initial one in the same datagram.
We must be able to parse such packets just after having parsed the Initial packets.
Export the code responsible which set the ->app_ops structure into
quic_set_app_ops() function. It must be called by the TLS callback which
selects the application (ssl_sock_advertise_alpn_protos) so that
to be able to build application packets after having received 0-RTT data.
This field is no more useful. Modify the traces consequently.
Also initialize ->pn_node.key value to -1, which is an illegal value
for QUIC packet number, and display it in traces if different from -1.
This patch adds the parsing of the optional condition parameters that
can be passed to the set-var and set-var-fmt actions (http as well as
tcp). Those conditions will not be taken into account yet in the var_set
function so conditions passed as parameters will not have any effect.
Since actions do not benefit from the parameter preparsing that
converters have, parsing conditions needed to be done by hand.
This patch adds the parsing of the optional condition parameters that
can be passed to the set-var converter. Those conditions will not be

VF_UPDATEONLY flag that was used to prevent proc scope variable creation
from a LUA module.
In LibreSSL 3.5.0, BIO is going to become opaque, so haproxy's

Initialize all flow control members on the qcc instance. Without this,
the value are undefined and it may be possible to have errors about
reached streams limit.
The xprt layer is reponsible to notify the mux of a CONNECTION_CLOSE
reception. In this case the flag QC_CF_CC_RECV is positionned on the
qcc and the mux tasklet is waken up.
One of the notable effect of the QC_CF_CC_RECV is that each qcs will be
released even if they have remaining data in their send buffers.
A qcs is not freed if there is remaining data in its buffer. In this
case, the flag QC_SF_DETACH is positionned.
The qcc io handler is responsible to remove the qcs if the QC_SF_DETACH
is set and their buffers are empty.
Replace bug.h by api.h in mux_quic header.
This is required because bug.h uses atomic operations when compiled with
DEBUG_MEM_STATS. api.h takes care of including atomic.h before bug.h.
Set the HTX EOM flag on RX the app layer. This is required to notify
about the end of the request for the stream analyzers, else the request
channel never goes to MSG_DONE state.
Remove qc_eval_pkt() which has come with the multithreading support. It
was there to evaluate the length of a TX packet before building. We could
build from several thread TX packets without consuming a packet number for nothing (when
the building failed). But as the TX packet building functions are always
executed by the same thread, the one attached to the connection, this does
not make sense to continue to use such a function. Furthermore it is buggy
since we had to recently pad the TX packet under certain circumstances.
After the handshake has succeeded, we must delete any remaining
Initial or Handshake packets from the RX buffer. This cannot be
done depending on the state the connection (->st quic_conn struct
member value) as the packet are not received/treated in order.
Add a null byte to the end of the RX buffer to notify the consumer there is no
more data to treat.
Modify quic_rx_packet_pool_purge() which is the function which remove the
RX packet from the buffer.
Also rename this function to quic_rx_pkts_del().
As the RX packets may be accessed by the QUIC connection handler (quic_conn_io_cb())
the function responsible of decrementing their reference counters must not
access other information than these reference counters! It was a very bad idea
to try to purge the RX buffer asap when executing this function.
Handle the case when the app layer sending buffer is full. A new flag
QC_SF_BLK_MROOM is set in this case and the transfer is interrupted. It
is expected that then the conn-stream layer will subscribe to SEND.
The MROOM flag is reset each time the muxer transfer data from the app
layer to its own buffer. If the app layer has been subscribed on SEND it
is woken up.
Implement the subscription in the mux on the qcs instance.
Subscribe is now used by the h3 layer when receiving an incomplete frame
on the H3 control stream. It is also used when attaching the remote
uni-directional streams on the h3 layer.
In the qc_send, the mux wakes up the qcs for each new transfer executed.
This is done via the method qcs_notify_send().
The xprt wakes up the qcs when receiving data on unidirectional streams.
This is done via the method qcs_notify_recv().
Set the QC_SF_FIN_STREAM on the app layers (h3 / hq-interop) when
reaching the HTX EOM. This is used to warn the mux layer to set the FIN
on the QUIC stream.
Re-implement the QUIC mux. It will reuse the mechanics from the previous
mux without all untested/unsupported features. This should ease the
maintenance.
Note that a lot of features are broken for the moment. They will be
re-implemented on the following commits to have a clean commit history.
ha_backtrace_to_stderr() must be declared in CRASH_NOW() macro whe HAProxy
is compiled with DEBUG_STRICT_NOCRASH. Otherwise an error is reported during
compilation:
include/haproxy/bug.h:58:26: error: implicit declaration of function ‘ha_backtrace_to_stderr’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
58 | #define CRASH_NOW() do { ha_backtrace_to_stderr(); } while (0)
This patch must be backported as far as 2.4.
If H1 headers are not fully received at once, the parsing is restarted a
last time when all headers are finally received. When this happens, the h1m
flags are sanitized to remove all value set during parsing.
But some flags where erroneously preserved. Among others, H1_MF_TE_CHUNKED
flag was not removed, what could lead to parsing error.
To fix the bug and make things easy, a mask has been added with all flags
that must be preserved. It will be more stable. This mask is used to
sanitize h1m flags.
This patch should fix the issue #1469. It must be backported to 2.5.
When the response is parsed, query items are stored in a list, attached to
the parsed response (resolve_response).
First, there is one and only one query sent at a time. Thus, there is no
reason to use a list. There is a test to be sure there is only one query
item in the response. Then, the reference on this query item is only used to
validate the domain name is the one requested. So the query list can be
removed. We only expect one query item, no reason to loop on query records.
In addition, the query domain name is now immediately checked against the
resolution domain name. This way, the query item is only manipulated during
the response parsing.
During post-parsing stage, the SSL context of a server is initialized if SSL
is configured on the server or its default-server. It is required to be able
to enable SSL at runtime. However a regression was introduced, because the
last parsed default-server is used. But it is not necessarily the
default-server line used to configure the server. This may lead to
erroneously initialize the SSL context for a server without SSL parameter or
the skip it while it should be done.
The problem is the default-server used to configure a server is not saved
during configuration parsing. So, the information is lost during the
post-parsing. To fix the bug, the SRV_F_DEFSRV_USE_SSL flag is
introduced. It is used to know when a server was initialized with a
default-server using SSL.
For the record, the commit f63704488e ("MEDIUM: cli/ssl: configure ssl on
server at runtime") has introduced the bug.
This patch must be backported as far as 2.4.
Apple libmalloc has its own notion of memory arenas as malloc_zone with
rich API having various callbacks for various allocations strategies but
here we just use the defaults.
In trim_all_pools, we advise to purge each zone as much as possible, called "greedy" mode.
As soon as the connection ID (the one choosen by the QUIC server) has been used
by the client, we can delete its original destination connection ID from its tree.
When running Key Update process, we must maintain much information
especially when the key phase bit has been toggled by the peer as
it is possible that it is due to late packets. This patch adds
quic_tls_kp new structure to do so. They are used to store
previous and next secrets, keys and IVs associated to the previous
and next RX key phase. We also need the next TX key phase information
to be able to encrypt packets for the next key phase.
When sending a CONNECTION_CLOSE frame to immediately close the connection,
do not provide CRYPTO data to the TLS stack. Do not built anything else than a
CONNECTION_CLOSE and do not derive any secret when in immediately close state.
Seize the opportunity of this patch to rename ->err quic_conn struct member
to ->error_code.
We set this TLS error when no application protocol could be negotiated
via the TLS callback concerned. It is converted as a QUIC CRYPTO_ERROR
error (0x178).
Change the way the CIDs are organized to rattach received packets DCID
to QUIC connection. This is necessary to be able to handle multiple DCID
to one connection.
For this, the quic_connection_id structure has been extended. When
allocated, they are inserted in the receiver CID tree instead of the
quic_conn directly. When receiving a packet, the receiver tree is
inspected to retrieve the quic_connection_id. The quic_connection_id
contains now contains a reference to the QUIC connection.
Add ->err member to quic_conn struct to store the connection errors.
This is the responsability of ->send_alert callback of SSL_QUIC_METHOD
struct to handle the TLS alert and consequently update ->err value.
At this time, when entering qc_build_pkt() we build a CONNECTION_CLOSE
frame close the connection when ->err value is not null.
If we want to run quic-tracker against haproxy, we must at least
support the draft version of the TLS extension for the QUIC transport
parameters (0xffa5). quic-tracker QUIC version is draft-29 at this time.
We select this depending on the QUIC version. If draft, we select the
draft TLS extension.
When establishing an outboud connection, haproxy checks if the cached
TLS session has the same SNI as the connection we are trying to
resume.
This test was done by calling SSL_get_servername() which in TLSv1.2
returned the SNI. With TLSv1.3 this is not the case anymore and this
function returns NULL, which invalidates any outboud connection we are
trying to resume if it uses the sni keyword on its server line.
This patch fixes the problem by storing the SNI in the "reused_sess"
structure beside the session itself.
The ssl_sock_set_servername() now has a RWLOCK because this session
cache entry could be accessed by the CLI when trying to update a
certificate on the backend.
This fix must be backported in every maintained version, however the
RWLOCK only exists since version 2.4.
Implement a new app_ops layer for quic interop. This layer uses HTTP/0.9
on top of QUIC. Implementation is minimal, with the intent to be able to
pass interoperability test suite from
https://github.com/marten-seemann/quic-interop-runner.
It is instantiated if the negotiated ALPN is "hq-interop".
Remove the hardcoded initialization of h3 layer on mux init. Now the
ALPN is looked just after the SSL handshake. The app layer is then
installed if the ALPN negotiation returned a supported protocol.
This required to add a get_alpn on the ssl_quic layer which is just a
call to ssl_sock_get_alpn() from ssl_sock. This is mandatory to be able
to use conn_get_alpn().
This change is required to be able to use multiple app_ops layer on top
of QUIC. The stream-interface will now call the mux snd_buf which is
just a proxy to the app_ops snd_buf function.
The architecture may be simplified in the structure to install the
app_ops on the stream_interface and avoid the detour via the mux layer
on the sending path.
In 1.8 when muxes and conn_streams were introduced, the call to
conn_full_close() was replaced with a call to cs_close() which only
relied on shutr/shutw (commits 6978db35e ("MINOR: connection:
add cs_close() to close a conn_stream") and a553ae96f ("MEDIUM:
connection: replace conn_full_close() with cs_close()")). By then
this was fine, and the rare risk of non-idempotent calls was addressed
by the muxes implementing the functions (e.g. mux_pt).
Later with commit 325607397 ("MEDIUM: stream: do not forcefully close
the client connection anymore"), stream_free() started to call cs_close()
instead of forcibly closing the connection via conn_full_close(). At this
point this started to break idempotence because it was possible to emit
a shutw() (e.g. when option httpclose was set), then to have it called
agian upon stream_free() via cs_close(). By then it was not a problem
since only mux_pt would implement this and did check for idempotence.
When HTX was implemented and mux-h1/h2 offered support for shutw/shutr,
the idempotence changed a little bit because the last shutdown mode
(normal/silent) was recorded and used at the moment of closing. The
call to cs_close() uses the silent mode and will replace the current
one. This has an effect on data pending in the buffer if the FIN could
not be sent before cs_close(), because lingering may be disabled and
final data lost in the network stack.
Interestingly, during 2.4-dev3, this was addressed as the side effect
of an improvement by commit 3c82d8b32 ("MINOR: mux-h1: Rework how
shutdowns are handled"), where the H1 mux's shutdown function becomes
explicitly idempotent. However older versions (2.3 to 2.0) do not have
it.
This patch addresses the issue globally by making sure that cs_shutr()
and cs_shutw() are idempotent and cannot have their data truncated by
a late cs_close(). It fixes the truncation that is observed in 2.3 and
2.2 as described in issue #1450.
This must be backported as far as 2.0, along with commit f14d750bf
("BUG/MEDIUM: conn-stream: Don't reset CS flags on close") which it
depends on.
Implement a reload failure counter which counts the number of failure
since the last success. This counter is available in 'show proc' over
the master CLI.
cs_close() and cs_drain_and_close() are called to close a conn-stream.
cs_shutr() and cs_shutw() are called with the appropriate modes. But the
conn-stream is not released at this stage. However the flags are
reset. Thus, after a cs_close(), we loose shutdown flags. If cs_close() is
performed several times, it is a problem. And indeed, it is possible. On one
hand, the stream-interface may close the conn-stream. On the other end, the
stream always closes it when it is released.
It is a problem for the H1 multiplexer. Because the conn-stream flags are
reset, the shutr and shutw are performed twice. For a delayed shutdown, the
dirty mode is used instead of the normal one because the last call to
h1_shutw() overwrite H1C flags set by the first call. This leads to dirty
shutdowns while normal ones are required. At the end, it is possible to
truncate the messages.
This bug was revealed by the commit a85c522d4 ("BUG/MINOR: mux-h1: Save
shutdown mode if the shutdown is delayed").
This patch is related to the issue #1450. It must be backported as far as
2.0.
- add new metric: `haproxy_backend_agg_server_check_status`
it counts the number of servers matching a specific check status
this permits to exclude per server check status as the usage is often
to rely on the total. Indeed in large setup having thousands of
servers per backend the memory impact is not neglible to store the per
server metric.
- realign promex_str_metrics array
quite simple implementation - we could improve it later by adding an
internal state to the prometheus exporter, thus to avoid counting at
every dump.
this patch is an attempt to close github issue #1312. It may bebackported
to 2.4 if requested.

This function claims to perform an strncat()-like operation but it does
not, it always copies the indicated number of bytes, regardless of the
presence of a NUL character (what is currently done by chunk_memcat()).
Let's remove it and explicitly replace it with chunk_memcat().
Commit 3d2093af9 ("MINOR: connection: Add a connection error code sample
fetch") added these convenient sample-fetch functions but it appears that
due to a misunderstanding the redundant "conn" part was kept in their
name, causing confusion, since "fc" already stands for "front connection".
Let's simply call them "fc_err" and "bc_err" to match all other related
ones before they appear in a final release. The VTC they appeared in were
also updated, and the alpha sort in the keywords table updated.

->frms_rwlock is an old lock supposed to be used when several threads
could handle the same connection. This is no more the case since this
commit:
"MINOR: quic: Attach the QUIC connection to a thread."
Add a buffer per QUIC connection. At this time the listener which receives
the UDP datagram is responsible of identifying the underlying QUIC connection
and must copy the QUIC packets to its buffer.
->pkt_list member has been added to quic_conn struct to enlist the packets
in the order they have been copied to the connection buffer so that to be
able to consume this buffer when the packets are freed. This list is locked
thanks to a R/W lock to protect it from concurent accesses.
quic_rx_packet struct does not use a static buffer anymore to store the QUIC
packets contents.
At this time we allocate an RX buffer by thread.
Also take the opportunity offered by this patch to rename TX related variable
names to distinguish them from the RX part.
This patch renames all dns extra counters and stats functions, types and
enums using the 'resolv' prefix/suffixes.
The dns extra counter domain id used on cli was replaced by "resolvers"
instead of "dns".
The typed extra counter prefix dumping resolvers domain "D." was
also renamed "N." because it points counters on a Nameserver.
This was done to finish the split between "resolver" and "dns" layers
and to avoid further misunderstanding when haproxy will handle dns
load balancing.
This should not be backported.
This patch add a union and struct into dns_counter struct to split
application specific counters.
The only current existing application is the resolver.c layer but
in futur we could handle different application such as dns load
balancing with others specific counters.
This patch should not be backported.
Handle properly websocket streams if the server uses an ALPN with both
h1 and h2. Add a new field h2_ws in the server structure. If set to off,
reuse is automatically disable on backend and ALPN is forced to http1.x
if possible. Nothing is done if on.
Implement a mechanism to be able to use a different http version for
websocket streams. A new server member <ws> represents the algorithm to
select the protocol. This can overrides the server <proto>
configuration. If the connection uses ALPN for proto selection, it is
updated for websocket streams to select the right protocol.
Three mode of selection are implemented :
- auto : use the same protocol between non-ws and ws streams. If ALPN is
use, try to update it to "http/1.1"; this is only done if the server
ALPN contains "http/1.1".
- h1 : use http/1.1
- h2 : use http/2.0; this requires the server to support RFC8441 or an
error will be returned by haproxy.
Add a new parameter force_mux_ops. This will be useful to specify an
alternative to the srv->mux_proto field. If non-NULL, it will be use to
force the mux protocol wether srv->mux_proto is set or not.
This argument will become useful to install a mux for non-standard
streams, most notably websocket streams.
Implement a new function to update the ALPN on an existing connection.
on an existing connection. The ALPN from the ssl context can be checked
to update the ALPN only if it is a subset of the context value.
This method will be useful to change a connection ALPN for websocket,
must notably if the server does not support h2 websocket through the
rfc8441 Extended Connect.
Define a new stream flag SF_WEBSOCKET and a new cs flag CS_FL_WEBSOCKET.
The conn-stream flag is first set by h1/h2 muxes if the request is a
valid websocket upgrade. The flag is then converted to SF_WEBSOCKET on
the stream creation.
This will be useful to properly manage websocket streams in
connect_server().
With this feature the lua implementation of the httpclient is now able
to stream a payload larger than an haproxy buffer.
The hlua_httpclient_send() function is now split into:
hlua_httpclient_send() which initiate the httpclient and parse the lua
parameters
hlua_httpclient_snd_yield() which will send the request and be called
again to stream the request if the body is larger than an haproxy buffer
hlua_httpclient_rcv_yield() which will receive the response and store it
in the lua buffer.
This patch add a way to handle HTTP requests streaming using a
callback.
The end of the data must be specified by using the "end" parameter in
httpclient_req_xfer().
The memcpy() call in the aarch64 version of __ha_cas_dw() is sometimes
inlined and sometimes not, depending on the gcc version. It's only used
to copy two void*, so let's use direct assignment instead of memcpy().
It would also be possible to change the asm code to directly write there,
but it's not worth it.
With this change the code is 8kB smaller with gcc-5.4.
__atomic_compare_exchange() is incorrectly documented in the gcc builtins
doc, it says the desired value is "type *desired" while in reality it is
"const type *desired" as expected since that value must in no way be
modified by the operation. However it seems that clang has implemented
it as documented, and reports build warnings when fed a const.
This is quite problematic because it means we have to betry the callers,
pretending we won't touch their constants but not knowing what the
compiler would do with them, and possibly hiding future bugs.
Instead of forcing a cast, let's just switch to the better
__atomic_compare_exchange_n() that takes a value instead of a pointer.
At least with this one there is no doubt about how the input will be
used.
It was verified that the output object code is the same both in clang
and gcc with this change.
At a few places we were still using protocol_by_family() instead of
the richer protocol_lookup(). The former is limited as it enforces
SOCK_STREAM and a stream protocol at the control layer. At least with
protocol_lookup() we don't have this limitationn. The values were still
set for now but later we can imagine making them configurable on the
fly.
Instead of using sock_type and ctrl_type to select a protocol, let's
make use of the new protocol type. For now they always match so there
is no change. This is applied to address parsing and to socket retrieval
from older processes.
The protocol selection is currently performed based on the family,
control type and socket type. But this is often not enough, as both
only provide DGRAM or STREAM, leaving few variants. Protocols like
SCTP for example might be indistinguishable from TCP here. Same goes
for TCP extensions like MPTCP.
This commit introduces a new enum proto_type that is placed in each
and every protocol definition, that will usually more or less match
the sock_type, but being an enum, will support additional values.
For now, these addresses are never set. But the idea is to be able to set, at
least first, the client source and destination addresses at the stream level
without updating the session or connection ones.
Of course, because these addresses are carried by the strream-interface, it
would be possible to set server source and destination addresses at this level
too.
Functions to fill these addresses have been added: si_get_src() and
si_get_dst(). If not already set, these functions relies on underlying
layers to fill stream-interface addresses. On the frontend side, the session
addresses are used if set, otherwise the client connection ones are used. On
the backend side, the server connection addresses are used.
And just like for sessions and conncetions, si_src() and si_dst() may be used to
get source and destination addresses or the stream-interface. And, if not set,
same mechanism as above is used.
For now, these addresses are never set. But the idea is to be able to set
client source and destination addresses at the session level without
updating the connection ones.
Functions to fill these addresses have been added: sess_get_src() and
sess_get_dst(). If not already set, these functions relies on
conn_get_src() and conn_get_dst() to fill session addresses.
And just like for conncetions, sess_src() and sess_dst() may be used to get
source and destination addresses. However, if not set, the corresponding
address from the underlying client connection is returned. When this
happens, the addresses is filled in the connection object.
conn_get_src() and conn_get_dst() functions are used to fill the source and
destination addresses of a connection. On success, ->src and ->dst
connection fields can be safely used.
For convenience, 2 new functions are added here: conn_src() and conn_dst().
These functions return the corresponding address, as a const and only if it
is already set. Otherwise NULL is returned.
Flags used to set the execution context of a lua txn are used as an enum. It is
not uncommon but there are few flags otherwise. So to remove ambiguities, a
comment and a _NONE value are added to have a clear definition of supported
values.
This patch should fix the issue #1429. No backport needed.
httpclient_req_gen() takes a payload argument which can be use to put a
payload in the request. This payload can only fit a request buffer.
This payload can also be specified by the "body" named parameter within
the lua. httpclient.
It is also used within the CLI httpclient when specified as a CLI
payload with "<<".
Use include file <sys/time.h> to fix compilation error with timeval in
some files. This is as reported as 'man 7 system_data_types'. The build
error is reported on NetBSD 9.2.
This should be backported up to 2.2.
Some browsers may send Initial packets with sizes greater than 1252 bytes
(QUIC_INITIAL_IPV4_MTU). Let us increase this size limit up to 2048 bytes.
Also use this size for "max_udp_payload_size" transport parameter to limit
the size of the datagrams we want to receive.
Sometimes we'd like to do our best to drain pending data before closing
in order to save the peer from risking to receive an RST on close.
This adds a new connection flag CO_FL_WANT_DRAIN that is used to
trigger a call to conn_ctrl_drain() from conn_ctrl_close(), and the
sock_drain() function ignores fd_recv_ready() if this flag is set,
in order to catch latest data. It's not used for now.
This applicationn specific flag was added in 2.4-dev by commit 6fa8bcdc7
("MINOR: task: add an application specific flag to the state: TASK_F_USR1")
to help preserve a the idle connections status across wakeup calls. While
the code to do this was OK for tasklets, it was wrong for tasks, as in an
effort not to lose it when setting the RUNNING flag (that tasklets don't
have), it ended up being inconditionally set. It just happens that for now
no regular tasks use it, only tasklets.
This fix makes sure we always atomically perform (state & flags | running)
there, using a CAS. It also does it for tasklets because it was possible
to lose some such flags if set by another thread, even though this should
not happen with current code. In order to make the code more readable (and
avoid the previous mistake of repeated flags in the bit field), a new
TASK_PERSISTENT aggregate was declared in task.h for this.
In practice the CAS is cheap here because task states are stable or
convergent so the loop will almost never be taken.
This should be backported to 2.4.
This macro is similar to LIST_INLIST() except that it is guaranteed to
perform the test atomically, so that even if LIST_INLIST() is intrumented
with debugging code to perform extra consistency checks, it will not fail
when used in the context of barriers and atomic ops.
perf top shows that we spend a lot of time trying to read item->type in
the lookup loop, because the node is placed after the very long name,
so when the node is found, no data is in the cache yet. Let's simply
move the node upper in the struct. This results in the CPU usage of
resolv_validate_dns_response() to drop by 4 points.
A bogus test in b_get_varint(), b_put_varint(), b_peek_varint() shifts
the end of the buffer by one byte. Since the bug is the same in the read
and write functions, the buffer contents remain compatible, which explains
why this bug was not detected earlier. But if the buffer ends on an
aligned address or page, it can result in a one-byte overflow which will
typically cause a crash or an inconsistent behavior.
This API is only used by rings (e.g. for traces and boot messages) and
by DNS responses, so the probability to hit it is extremely low, but a
crash on boot was observed.
This must be backported to 2.2.
With SRV records, a huge amount of time is spent looking for records
by walking long lists. It is possible to reduce this by indexing values
in trees instead. However the whole code relies a lot on the list
ordering, and even implements some round-robin on it to distribute IP
addresses to servers.
This patch starts carefully by replacing the list with a an eb32 tree
that is still used like a list, with a constant key 0. Since ebtrees
preserve insertion order for duplicates, the tree walk visits the nodes
in the exact same order it did with the lists. This allows to implement
the required infrastructure without changing the behavior.
This one was used to indicate whether the callee had to follow particularly
safe code path when removing resolutions. Since the code now uses a kill
list, this is not needed anymore.
This code is dangerous enough that we certainly don't want external code
to ever approach it, let's not export unnecessary functions like this one.
It was made static and a comment was added about its purpose.
In order for all the error return values to be distributed on the same
side (instead of surrounding the success error code), the return values
for errors other than a simple verification failure are switched to
negative values. This way the result of the jwt_verify converter can be
compared strictly to 1 as well relative to 0 (any <= 0 return value is
an error).
The documentation was also modified to discourage conversion of the
return value into a boolean (which would definitely not work).
The PR_FL_READY flags must now be set on a proxy at the end of the
configuration validity check to notify it is fully configured and may be
safely used.
For now there is no real usage of this flag. But it will be usefull for
referenced default proxies to finish their configuration only once.
This patch is mandatory to support TCP/HTTP rules in defaults sections.
A proxy may now references the defaults section it is used. To do so, a
pointer on the default proxy was added in the proxy structure. And a
refcount must be used to track proxies using a default proxy. A default
proxy is destroyed iff its refcount is equal to zero and when it drops to
zero.
All this stuff must be performed during init/deinit staged for now. All
unreferenced default proxies are removed after the configuration parsing.
This patch is mandatory to support TCP/HTTP rules in defaults sections.
It is now possible to designate the defaults section to use by adding a name
of the corresponding defaults section and referencing it in the desired
proxy section. However, this introduces an ambiguity. This named defaults
section may still be implicitly used by other proxies if it is the last one
defined. In this case for instance:
default common
...
default frt from common
...
default bck from common
...
frontend fe from frt
...
backend be from bck
...
listen stats
...
Here, it is not really obvious the last section will use the 'bck' defaults
section. And it is probably not the expected behaviour. To help users to
properly configure their haproxy, a warning is now emitted if a defaults
section is explicitly AND implicitly used. The configuration manual was
updated accordingly.
Because this patch adds a warning, it should probably not be backported to
2.4. However, if is is backported, it depends on commit "MINOR: proxy:
Introduce proxy flags to replace disabled bitfield".
This change is required to support TCP/HTTP rules in defaults sections. The
'disabled' bitfield in the proxy structure, used to know if a proxy is
disabled or stopped, is replaced a generic bitfield named 'flags'.
PR_DISABLED and PR_STOPPED flags are renamed to PR_FL_DISABLED and
PR_FL_STOPPED respectively. In addition, everywhere there is a test to know
if a proxy is disabled or stopped, there is now a bitwise AND operation on
PR_FL_DISABLED and/or PR_FL_STOPPED flags.
These two fields are exclusive as they depend on the data type.
Let's move them into a union to save some precious bytes. This
reduces the struct resolv_answer_item size from 600 to 576 bytes.
The struct resolv_answer_item contains an address field of type
"sockaddr" which is only 16 bytes long, but which is used to store
either IPv4 or IPv6. Fortunately, the contents only overlap with
the "target" field that follows it and that is large enough to
absorb the extra bytes needed to store AAAA records. But this is
dangerous as just moving fields around could result in memory
corruption.
The fix uses a union and removes the casts that were used to hide
the problem.
Older versions need to be checked and possibly fixed. This needs
to be backported anyway.
In multi-threaded mode, on operating systems supporting multiple listeners on
the same IP:port, this will automatically create this number of multiple
identical listeners for the same line, all bound to a fair share of the number
of the threads attached to this listener. This can sometimes be useful when
using very large thread counts where the in-kernel locking on a single socket
starts to cause a significant overhead. In this case the incoming traffic is
distributed over multiple sockets and the contention is reduced. Note that
doing this can easily increase the CPU usage by making more threads work a
little bit.
If the number of shards is higher than the number of available threads, it
will automatically be trimmed to the number of threads. A special value
"by-thread" will automatically assign one shard per thread.
This function's purpose will be to duplicate a listener in INIT state.
This will be used to ease declaration of listeners spanning multiple
groups, which will thus require multiple FDs hence multiple receivers.
With groups at some point we'll have to have distinct masks/groups in the
receiver and the bind_conf, because a single bind_conf might require to
instantiate multiple receivers (one per group).
Let's split the thread mask and group to have one for the bind_conf and
another one for the receiver while it remains easy to do. This will later
allow to use different storage for the bind_conf if needed (e.g. support
multiple groups).

Fix this compilation issue by inserting openssl-compat.h in jwt-t.h
This new converter takes a JSON Web Token, an algorithm (among the ones
specified for JWS tokens in RFC 7518) and a public key or a secret, and
it returns a verdict about the signature contained in the token. It does
not simply return a boolean because some specific error cases cas be
specified by returning an integer instead, such as unmanaged algorithms
or invalid tokens. This enables to distinguich malformed tokens from
tampered ones, that would be valid format-wise but would have a bad
signature.
This converter does not perform a full JWT validation as decribed in
section 7.2 of RFC 7519. For instance it does not ensure that the header
and payload parts of the token are completely valid JSON objects because
it would need a complete JSON parser. It only focuses on the signature
and checks that it matches the token's contents.
A JWT signed with the RSXXX or ESXXX algorithm (RSA or ECDSA) requires a
public certificate to be verified and to ensure it is valid. Those
certificates must not be read on disk at runtime so we need a caching
mechanism into which those certificates will be loaded during init.
This is done through a dedicated ebtree that is filled during
configuration parsing. The path to the public certificates will need to
be explicitely mentioned in the configuration so that certificates can
be loaded as early as possible.
This tree is different from the ckch one because ckch entries are much
bigger than the public certificates used in JWT validation process.
This helper function splits a JWT under Compact Serialization format
(dot-separated base64-url encoded strings) into its different sub
strings. Since we do not want to manage more than JWS for now, which can
only have at most three subparts, any JWT that has strictly more than
two dots is considered invalid.
The full list of possible algorithms used to create a JWS signature is
defined in section 3.1 of RFC7518. This patch adds a helper function
that converts the "alg" strings into an enum member.
This fetch can be used to retrieve the data contained in an HTTP
Authorization header when the Bearer scheme is used. This is used when
transmitting JSON Web Tokens for instance.
On receiving CONNECTION_CLOSE frame, the mux is flagged for immediate
connection close. A stream is closed even if there is data not ACKed
left if CONNECTION_CLOSE has been received.
The mux tx buffers have been rewritten with buffers attached to qcs
instances. qc_buf_available and qc_get_buf functions are updated to
manipulates qcs. All occurences of the unused qcc ring buffer are
removed to ease the code maintenance.
Defer the shutting of a qcs if there is still data in its tx buffers. In
this case, the conn_stream is closed but the qcs is kept with a new flag
QC_SF_DETACH.
On ACK reception, the xprt wake up the shut_tl tasklet if the stream is
flagged with QC_SF_DETACH. This tasklet is responsible to free the qcs
and possibly the qcc when all bidirectional streams are removed.
Remove the tx mux ring buffers in qcs, which should be in the qcc. For
the moment, use a simple architecture with 2 simple tx buffers in the
qcs.
The first buffer is used by the h3 layer to prepare the data. The mux
send operation transfer these into the 2nd buffer named xprt_buf. This
buffer is only freed when an ACK has been received.
This architecture is functional but not optimal for two reasons :
- it won't limit the buffer usage by connection
- each transfer on a new stream requires an allocation
This new ssllib_name_startswith precondition check can be used to
distinguish application linked with OpenSSL from the ones linked with
other SSL libraries (LibreSSL or BoringSSL namely). This check takes a
string as input and returns 1 when the SSL library's name starts with
the given string. It is based on the OpenSSL_version function which
returns the same output as the "openssl version" command.
These ones are passed on rule creation for the sole purpose of being
reported in "show sess", which is not done yet. For now the entries
are allocated upon rule creation and freed in free_act_rules().
Rules are currently allocated using calloc() by their caller, which does
not make it very convenient to pass more information such as the file
name and line number.
This patch introduces new_act_rule() which performs the malloc() and
already takes in argument the ruleset (ACT_F_*), the file name and the
line number. This saves the caller from having to assing ->from, and
will allow to improve the internal storage with more info.
Rename __GLOBL and __GLOBL1 to __HA_GLOBL and __HA_GLOBL1, as the former are
already defined on FreeBSD.
This should be backported to 2.4, 2.3 and 2.2.
There have been a large number of issues reported with conn_cur
synchronization because the concept is wrong. In an active-passive
setup, pushing the local connections count from the active node to
the passive one will result in the passive node to have a higher
counter than the real number of connections. Due to this, after a
switchover, it will never be able to close enough connections to
go down to zero. The same commonly happens on reloads since the new
process preloads its values from the old process, and if no connection
happens for a key after the value is learned, it is impossible to reset
the previous ones. In active-active setups it's a bit different, as the
number of connections reflects the number on the peer that pushed last.
This patch solves this by marking the "conn_cur" local and preventing
it from being learned from peers. It is still pushed, however, so that
any monitoring system that collects values from the peers will still
see it.
The patch is tiny and trivially backportable. While a change of behavior
in stable branches is never welcome, it remains possible to fix issues
if reports become frequent.
In the configuration sometimes we'll omit a thread group number to designate
a global thread number range, and sometimes we'll mention the group and
designate IDs within that group. The operation is more complex than it
seems due to the need to check for ranges spanning between multiple groups
and determining groups from threads from bit masks and remapping bit masks
between local/global.
This patch adds a function to perform this operation, it takes a group and
mask on input and updates them on output. It's designed to be used by "bind"
lines but will likely be usable at other places if needed.
For situations where specified threads do not exist in the group, we have
the choice in the code between silently fixing the thread set or failing
with a message. For now the better option seems to return an error, but if
it turns out to be an issue we can easily change that in the future. Note
that it should only happen with "x/even" when group x only has one thread.
This extends the "thread" statement of bind lines to support an optional
thread group number. When unspecified (0) it's an absolute thread range,
and when specified it's one relative to the thread group. Masks are still
used so no more than 64 threads may be specified at once, and a single
group is possible. The directive is not used for now.
This is the equivalent of "tid" for ease of access. In the future if we
make th_cfg a pure thread-local array (not a pointer), it may make sense
to move it there.
ha_set_tid() was randomly used either to explicitly set thread 0 or to
set any possibly incomplete thread during boot. Let's replace it with
a pointer to a valid thread or NULL for any thread. This allows us to
check that the designated threads are always valid, and to ignore the
thread 0's mapping when setting it to NULL, and always use group 0 with
it during boot.
The initialization code is also cleaner, as we don't pass ugly casts
of a thread ID to a pointer anymore.
This will be a convenient way to communicate the thread ID and its
local ID in the group, as well as their respective bits when creating
the threads or when only a pointer is given.
This will ease the reporting of the current thread group ID when coming
from the thread itself, especially since it returns the visible ID,
starting at 1.
This takes care of unassigned threads groups and places unassigned
threads there, in a more or less balanced way. Too sparse allocations
may still fail though. For now with a maximum group number fixed to 1
nothing can really fail.
A the "tg" thread-local variable now always points to the current
thread group. It's pre-initializd to the first one during boot and is
set to point to the thread's one by ha_set_tid(). This last one takes
care of checking whether the thread group was assigned or not because
it may be called during boot before threads are initialized.
This registers a mapping of threads to groups by enumerating for each thread
what group it belongs to, and marking the group as assigned. It takes care of
checking for redefinitions, overlaps, and holes. It supports both individual
numbers and ranges. The thread group is referenced from the thread config.
This creates a struct tgroup_info which knows the thread ID of the first
thread in a group, and the number of threads in it. For now there's only
one thread group supported in the configuration, but it may be forced to
other values for development purposes by defining MAX_TGROUPS, and it's
enabled even when threads are disabled and will need to remain accessible
during boot to keep a simple enough internal API.
For the purpose of easing the configurations which do not specify a thread
group, we're starting group numbering at 1 so that thread group 0 can be
"undefined" (i.e. for "bind" lines or when binding tasks).
The goal will be to later move there some global items that must be
made per-group.
We want to make sure that the current thread_info accessed via "ti" will
remain constant, so that we don't accidentally place new variable parts
there and so that the compiler knows that info retrieved from there is
not expected to have changed between two function calls.
Only a few init locations had to be adjusted to use the array and the
rest is unaffected.
The last 3 fields were 3 list heads that are per-thread, and which are:
- the pool's LRU head
- the buffer_wq
- the streams list head
Moving them into thread_ctx completes the removal of dynamic elements
from the struct thread_info. Now all these dynamic elements are packed
together at a single place for a thread.
The TI_FL_STUCK flag is manipulated by the watchdog and scheduler
and describes the apparent life/death of a thread so it changes
all the time and it makes sense to move it to the thread's context
for an active thread.
The "thread_info" name was initially chosen to store all info about
threads but since we now have a separate per-thread context, there is
no point keeping some of its elements in the thread_info struct.
As such, this patch moves prev_cpu_time, prev_mono_time and idle_pct to
thread_ctx, into the thread context, with the scheduler parts. Instead
of accessing them via "ti->" we now access them via "th_ctx->", which
makes more sense as they're totally dynamic, and will be required for
future evolutions. There's no room problem for now, the structure still
has 84 bytes available at the end.
The scheduler contains a lot of stuff that is thread-local and not
exclusively tied to the scheduler. Other parts (namely thread_info)
contain similar thread-local context that ought to be merged with
it but that is even less related to the scheduler. However moving
more data into this structure isn't possible since task.h is high
level and cannot be included everywhere (e.g. activity) without
causing include loops.
In the end, it appears that the task_per_thread represents most of
the per-thread context defined with generic types and should simply
move to tinfo.h so that everyone can use them.
The struct was renamed to thread_ctx and the variable "sched" was
renamed to "th_ctx". "sched" used to be initialized manually from
run_thread_poll_loop(), now it's initialized by ha_set_tid() just
like ti, tid, tid_bit.
The memset() in init_task() was removed in favor of a bss initialization
of the array, so that other subsystems can put their stuff in this array.
Since the tasklet array has TL_CLASSES elements, the TL_* definitions
was moved there as well, but it's not a problem.
The vast majority of the change in this patch is caused by the
renaming of the structures.
We used to remap SI_TKILL to SI_LWP when SI_TKILL was not available
(e.g. FreeBSD) but that's ugly and since we need this only in a single
switch/case block in wdt.c it's even simpler and cleaner to perform the
two tests there, so let's do this.
The watchdog timer had no more reason for being shared with the struct
thread_info since the watchdog is the only user now. Let's remove it
from the struct and move it to a static array in wdt.c. This removes
some ifdefs and the need for the ugly mapping to empty_t that might be
subject to a cast to a long when compared to TIMER_INVALID. Now timer_t
is not known outside of wdt.c and clock.c anymore.
This removes the knowledge of clockid_t from anywhere but clock.c, thus
eliminating a source of includes burden. The unused clock_id field was
removed from thread_info, and the definition setting of clockid_t was
removed from compat.h. The most visible change is that the function
now_cpu_time_thread() now takes the thread number instead of a tinfo
pointer.
The code that deals with timer creation for the WDT was moved to clock.c
and is called with the few relevant arguments. This removes the need for
awareness of clock_id from wdt.c and as such saves us from having to
share it outside. The timer_t is also known only from both ends but not
from the public API so that we don't have to create a fake timer_t
anymore on systems which do not support it (e.g. macos).
This was previously open-coded in run_thread_poll_loop(). Now that
we have clock.c dedicated to such stuff, let's move the code there
so that we don't need to keep such ifdefs nor to depend on the
clock_id.
Instead of fiddling with before_poll and after_poll in
activity_count_runtime(), the function is now called by
clock_entering_poll() which passes it the number of microseconds
spent working. This allows to remove all calls to
activity_count_runtime() from the pollers.
The entering_poll/leaving_poll/measure_idle functions that were hard
to classify and used to move to various locations have now been placed
into clock.c since it's precisely about time-keeping. The functions
were renamed to clock_*. The samp_time and idle_time values are now
static since there is no reason for them to be read from outside.
There is currently a problem related to time keeping. We're mixing
the functions to perform calculations with the os-dependent code
needed to retrieve and adjust the local time.
This patch extracts from time.{c,h} the parts that are solely dedicated
to time keeping. These are the "now" or "before_poll" variables for
example, as well as the various now_*() functions that make use of
gettimeofday() and clock_gettime() to retrieve the current time.
The "tv_*" functions moved there were also more appropriately renamed
to "clock_*".
Other parts used to compute stolen time are in other files, they will
have to be picked next.
It was brough by an unneeded addition of a local variable after a test
in commit f7f53afcf ("BUILD/MEDIUM: tcp: set-mark setting support for
FreeBSD."). No backport needed.
Remove the quic_conn from the receiver connection_ids tree on
quic_conn_free. This fixes a crash due to dangling references in the
tree after a quic connection release.
This operation must be conducted under the listener lock. For this
reason, the quic_conn now contains a reference to its attached listener.
Following include reorganzation, there is some missing include files for
task.h when compiling with DEBUG_TASK :
- activity.h for task_profiling_mask
- time.h for now_mono_time()
This is present since the following commit
d8b325c748
REORG: task: uninline the loop time measurement code
No need to backport this.
These ones are rarely used or only to waste CPU cycles waiting, and are
the last ones requiring system includes in thread.h. Let's uninline them
and move them to thread.c.
This removes the thread identifiers from struct thread_info and moves
them only in static array in thread.c since it's now the only file that
needs to touch it. It's also the only file that needs to include
pthread.h, beyond haproxy.c which needs it to start the poll loop. As
a result, much less system includes are needed and the LoC reduced by
around 3%.
haproxy.c still has to deal with pthread-specific low-level stuff that
is OS-dependent. We should not have to deal with this there, and we do
not need to access pthread anywhere else.
Let's move these 3 functions to thread.c and keep empty inline ones for
when threads are disabled.
It's not needed to inline it at all (one call per loop) and it introduces
dependencies, let's move it to fd.c.
Removing the few remaining includes that came with it further reduced
by ~0.2% the LoC and the build time is now below 6s.
TV_ETERNITY, TV_ETERNITY_MS and MAX_DELAY_MS may be configured and
ought to be in defaults.h so that they can be inherited from everywhere
without including time.h and could also be redefined if neede
(particularly for MAX_DELAY_MS).
It's pointless to inline this, it's called exactly once per poll loop,
and it depends on time.h which is quite deep. Let's move that to task.c
along with sched_report_idle().
The remaining large functions are those allocating/initializing and
occasionally freeing connections, conn_streams and sockaddr. Let's
move them to connection.c. In fact, cs_free() is the only one-liner
but let's move it along with the other ones since a call will be
small compared to the rest of the work done there.
The following inlined functions are particularly large (and probably not
inlined at all by the compiler), and together represent roughly half of
the file, while they're used at most once per connection. They were moved
to connection.c.
conn_upgrade_mux_fe, conn_install_mux_fe, conn_install_mux_be,
conn_install_mux_chk, conn_delete_from_tree, conn_init, conn_new,
conn_free
No need to include the full tree management code, type files only
need the definitions. Doing so reduces the whole code size by around
3.6% and the build time is down to just 6s.
ebtree is one piece using a lot of inlines and each tree root or node
definition needed by many of our structures requires to parse and
compile all these includes, which is large and painfully slow. Let's
move the very basic definitions to their own file and include it from
ebtree.h.
The following functions are quite heavy and have no reason to be kept
inlined:
srv_release_conn, srv_lookup_conn, srv_lookup_conn_next,
srv_add_to_idle_list
They were moved to server.c. It's worth noting that they're a bit
at the edge between server and connection and that maybe we could
create an idle-conn file for these in the near future.
We do not really need to have them inlined, and having xxhash.h included
by connection.h results in this 4700-lines file being processed 101 times
over the whole project, which accounts for 13.5% of the total size!
Additionally, half of the functions are only needed from connection.c.
Let's move the functions there and get rid of the painful include.
The build time is now down to 6.2s just due to this.
The hash type stored everywhere is XXH64_hash_t, which annoyingly forces
everyone to include the huge xxhash file. We know it's an uint64_t because
that's its purpose and the type is only made to abstract it on machines
where uint64_t is not availble. Let's switch the type to uint64_t
everywhere and avoid including xxhash from the type file.
Plenty of includes were present there only for struct pointers resulting
in them being used from many other places. The LoC reduced again by more
than 1% by cleaning this.
This one is expensive in code size because it comes with xxhash.h at a
low level of dependency that's inherited at plenty of places, and for
a function does doesn't benefit from inlining and could possibly even
benefit from not being inline given that it's large and called from the
scheduler.
Moving it to activity.c reduces the LoC by 1.2% and the binary size by
~1kB.
This function has no reason for being inlined, it's called from non
critical places (once in pollers), is quite large and comes with
dependencies (time and freq_ctr). Let's move it to acitvity.c. That's
another 0.4% less LoC to build.
These are ticks, not timeval, and they're a cause for plenty of files
including time.h just to access now_ms that's only used with ticks
functions. Let's move them over there.
The idle time calculation stuff was moved to task.h by commit 6dfab112e
("REORG: sched: move idle time calculation from time.h to task.h") but
these two variables that are only maintained by task.{c,h} were still
left in time.{c,h}. They have to move as well.
These two counters were the only ones not in the global struct, while
the SSL freq counters or the req counts are already in it, this forces
stats.c to include ssl_sock just to know about them. Let's move them
over there with their friends. This reduces from 408 to 384 the number
of includes of opensslconf.h.
This one has nothing to do with ssl_sock as it manipulates the struct
server only. Let's move it to server.c and remove unneeded dependencies
on ssl_sock.h. This further reduces by 10% the number of includes of
opensslconf.h and by 0.5% the number of compiled lines.
This one doesn't use anything from an SSL context, it only checks the
type of the transport layer of a connection, thus it belongs to
connection.h. This is particularly visible due to all the ifdefs
around it in various call places.
This is exactly the same as for listeners, servers only include
openssl-compat to provide the SSL_CTX type to use as two pointers to
contexts, and to detect if NPN, ALPN, and cipher suites are supported,
and save up to 5 pointers in the ssl_ctx struct if not supported. This
is pointless, as these ones have all been supported for about a decade,
and including this file comes with a long dependency chain that impacts
lots of other files. The ctx was made a void*.
Now the build time was significantly reduced, from 9.2 to 8.1 seconds,
thanks to opensslconf.h being included "only" 456 times instead of 2424
previously!
The total number of lines of code compiled was reduced by 15%.
Listeners only include openssl-compat to provide the SSL_CTX type to
use as two pointers to contexts, and to detect if NPN, ALPN, and cipher
suites are supported, and save up to 5 pointers in the ssl_bind_conf
struct if not supported. This is pointless, as these ones have all been
supported for about a decade, and including this file comes with a long
dependency chain that impacts lots of other files. The initial_ctx and
default_ctx can perfectly remain void* instead of SSL_CTX*.
These functions have no reason for being inlined, and they require some
includes with long dependencies. Let's move them to listener.c and trim
unused includes in listener.h.
This file includes streams, proxies, Lua just for some definitions of
structures for which we only have a pointer. Let's drop this. That's
responsible for 0.2% of all the lines of code.
The lock-debugging code in thread.h has no reason to be inlined. the
functions are quite fat and perform a lot of operations so there's no
saving keeping them inlined. Worse, most of them are in fact not
inlined, resulting in a significantly bigger executable.
This patch moves all this part from thread.h to thread.c. The functions
are still exported in thread.h of course. This results in ~166kB less
code:
text data bss dec hex filename
3165938 99424 897376 4162738 3f84b2 haproxy-before
2991987 99424 897376 3988787 3cdd33 haproxy-after
In addition the build time with thread debugging enabled has shrunk
from 19.2 to 17.7s thanks to much less code to be parsed in thread.h
that is included virtually everywhere.
pool-os.h relies on a number of includes solely because the
pool_alloc_area() function was inlined, and this only because we want
the normal version to be inlined so that we can track the calling
places for the memory profiler. It's worth noting that it already
does not work at -O0, and that when UAF is enabled we don't care a
dime about profiling.
This patch does two things at once:
- force-inline the functions so that pool_alloc_area() is still
inlined at -O0 to help track malloc() users ;
- uninline the UAF version of these (that rely on mmap/munmap)
and move them to pools.c so that we can remove all unneeded
includes.
Doing so reduces by ~270kB or 0.15% the total build size.
These ones are called from a few places in the code and are only provided
by ebtree.h, which is not normal given that some callers do not even use
ebtree.
channel, stream_interface, appctx, buffer, proxy and htx ones are used
in function arguments and most of them are not defined but were inherited
from intermediary inclues. Let's define them here and drop the unneeded
includes.
Some structures are inherited via intermediary includes (e.g. dns_counters
comes from a long path). Let's define the missing ones and includes vars-t
that is needed in the structure.
