Commit d6c4ed9a96 ("REGTESTS: h1/h2: Update script testing H1/H2
protocol upgrades") introduced a 0.5 second delay which is higher
than those of most other tests (usually 0.05 or 0.2) and triggers
timeouts on my side. Let's just shorten it to 0.2 since its goal
is only to send data separately.
Note: maybe a barrier approach would be possible, though not
studied.
"http-messaging/protocol_upgrade.vtc" script was updated to test upgrades
for requests with a payload. It should fail when the request is sent to a H2
server. When sent to a H1 server, it should succeed, except if the server
replies before the end of the request.
This commit prevents forwarding of an HTTP/2 Extended CONNECT when "h2c"
or "h2" token is set as targetted protocol. Contrary to the previous
commit which deals with HTTP/1 mux, this time the request is rejected
and a RESET_STREAM is reported to the client.
This must be backported up to 2.4 after a period of observation.
haproxy supports tunnel establishment through HTTP Upgrade mechanism.
Since the following commit, extended CONNECT is also supported for
HTTP/2 both on frontend and backend side.
commit 9bf957335e
MEDIUM: mux_h2: generate Extended CONNECT from htx upgrade
As specified by HTTP/2 rfc, "h2c" can be used by an HTTP/1.1 client to
request an upgrade to HTTP/2. In haproxy, this is not supported so it
silently ignores this. However, Connection and Upgrade headers are
forwarded as-is on the backend side.
If using HTTP/1 on the backend side and the server supports this upgrade
mechanism, haproxy won't be able to parse the HTTP response. If using
HTTP/2, mux backend tries to incorrectly convert the request to an
Extended CONNECT with h2c protocol, which may also prevent the response
to be transmitted.
To fix this, flag HTTP/1 request with "h2c" or "h2" token in an upgrade
header. On converting the header list to HTX, the upgrade header is
skipped if any of this token is present and the H1_MF_CONN_UPG flag is
removed.
This issue can easily be reproduced using curl --http2 argument to
connect to an HTTP/1 frontend.
This must be backported up to 2.4 after a period of observation.
With the CI occasionally slowing down, we're starting to see again some
spurious failures despite the long 1-second timeouts. This reports false
positives that are disturbing and doesn't provide as much value as this
could. However at this delay it already becomes a pain for developers
to wait for the tests to complete.
This commit adds support for the new environment variable
HAPROXY_TEST_TIMEOUT that will allow anyone to modify the connect,
client and server timeouts. It was set to 5 seconds by default, which
should be plenty for quite some time in the CI. All relevant values
that were 200ms or above were replaced by this one. A few larger
values were left as they are special. One test for the set-timeout
action that used to rely on a fixed 1-sec value was extended to a
fixed 5-sec, as the timeout is normally not reached, but it needs
to be known to compare the old and new values.
The RFC8441 was not respected by haproxy in regards with server support
for Extended CONNECT. The Extended CONNECT method was used to convert an
Upgrade header stream even if no SETTINGS_ENABLE_CONNECT_PROTOCOL was
received, which is forbidden by the RFC8441. In this case, the behavior
of the http/2 server is unspecified.
Fix this by flagging the connection on receiption of the RFC8441
settings SETTINGS_ENABLE_CONNECT_PROTOCOL. Extended CONNECT is thus only
be used if the flag is present. In the other case, the stream is
immediatly closed as there is no way to handle it in http/2. It results
in a http/1.1 502 or http/2 RESET_STREAM to the client side.
The protocol-upgrade regtest has been extended to test that haproxy does
not emit Extended CONNECT on servers without RFC8441 support.
It must be backported up to 2.4.
