First of all, all legacy HTTP analyzers and all functions exclusively used by
them were removed. So the most of the functions in proto_http.{c,h} were
removed. Only functions to deal with the HTTP transaction have been kept. Then,
http_msg and hdr_idx modules were entirely removed. And finally the structure
http_msg was lightened of all its useless information about the legacy HTTP. The
structure hdr_ctx was also removed because unused now, just like unused states
in the enum h1_state. Note that the memory pool "hdr_idx" was removed and
"http_txn" is now smaller.
This commit breaks the compatibility with filters still relying on the legacy
HTTP code. The legacy callbacks were removed (http_data, http_chunk_trailers and
http_forward_data).
For now, the filters must still set the flag FLT_CFG_FL_HTX to be used on HTX
streams.
The part of the applet dealing with raw buffer was removed, for the HTTP part
only. So the old functions stats_send_http_headers() and
stats_send_http_redirect() were removed and replaced by the htx ones. The legacy
applet I/O handler was replaced by the htx one. And the parsing of POST data was
purged of the legacy HTTP code.
The legacy HTTP callbacks were removed (trace_http_data,
trace_http_chunk_trailers and trace_http_forward_data). And the loop on the HTTP
headers was updated to only handle HTX messages.
The legacy HTTP callbacks were removed (comp_http_data, comp_http_chunk_trailers
and comp_http_forward_data). Functions emitting compressed chunks of data for
the legacy HTTP mode were also removed. The state for the compression filter was
updated accordingly. The compression context and the algorigttm used to compress
data are the only useful information remaining.
The applet delivering cached objects based on the legacy HTTP code was removed
as the filter callback cache_store_http_forward_data(). And the action analyzing
the response coming from the server to store it in the cache or not was purged
of the legacy HTTP code.
The L7 loadbalancing algorithms are concerned (uri, url_param and hdr), the
"sni" parameter on the server line and the "source" parameter on the server line
when used with "use_src hdr_ip()".
This was only used for the legacy HTTP mode where the connection mode was
handled by the HTTP analyzers. In HTX, the function http_adjust_conn_mode() does
nothing. The connection mode is handled by the muxes.
To know if an upgrade from TCP to H1 must be performed, we now only need to know
if a non HTX stream is assigned to an HTTP backend. So we don't rely anymore on
the flag PR_O2_USE_HTX to handle such upgrades.
All streams created for an HTTP proxy must now use the HTX internal
resprentation. So, it is no more necessary to test the flag PR_O2_USE_HTX. It
means a stream is an HTX stream if the frontend is an HTTP proxy or if the
frontend multiplexer, if any, set the flag MX_FL_HTX.
Since the legacy HTTP mode is disbabled, all HTTP sample fetches work on HTX
streams. So it is safe to remove all code relying on HTTP legacy mode. Among
other things, the function smp_prefetch_http() was removed with the associated
macros CHECK_HTTP_MESSAGE_FIRST() and CHECK_HTTP_MESSAGE_FIRST_PERM().
Since the legacy HTTP mode is disabled, old HTTP analyzers do nothing but call
those of the HTX. So, it is safe to directly call HTX analyzers from
process_stream().
Since the legacy HTTP mode is disabled and no multiplexer relies on it anymore,
there is no reason to have 2 multiplexer protocols for the HTTP. So the protocol
PROTO_MODE_HTX was removed and all HTTP multiplexers use now PROTO_MODE_HTTP.
Because the h2 multiplexer only uses the HTX mode, following H2 functions were
removed :
* h2_prepare_h1_reqline
* h2_make_h1_request()
* h2_make_h1_trailers()
From this commit, the legacy HTTP mode is now definitely disabled. It is the
first commit of a long series to remove the legacy HTTP code. Now, all HTTP
processing is done using the HTX internal representation. Since the version 2.0,
It is the default mode. So now, it is no more possible to disable the HTX to
fallback on the legacy HTTP mode. If you still use "[no] option http-use-htx", a
warning will be emitted during HAProxy startup. Note the passthough multiplexer
is now only usable for TCP proxies.
Instead of using a array of (struct block), it is more natural and intuitive to
use an array of char. Indeed, not only (struct block) are stored in this array,
but also their payload.
<head> and <tail> fields are now signed 32-bits integers. For an empty HTX
message, these fields are set to -1. So the field <used> is now useless and can
safely be removed. To know if an HTX message is empty or not, we just compare
<head> against -1 (it also works with <tail>). The function htx_nbblks() has
been added to get the number of used blocks.
The TXN flag HTTP_MSGF_WAIT_CONN is now ignored on HTX streams. There is no
reason to not start to forward data in HTX. This is required for the legacy mode
and this was copied from it during the HTX development. But it is simply
useless.
The function hlua_txn_done() still relying, for the HTTP, on the legacy HTTP
mode. Now, for HTX streams, it calls the function htx_reply_and_close().
This patch must be backported to 2.0 and 1.9.
The function http_calc_maxage() was not updated to be HTX aware. So the header
"Cache-Control" on the response was never parsed to find "max-age" or "s-maxage"
values.
This patch must be backported to 2.0 and 1.9.
Since the HTX is the default mode for all proxies, HTTP and TCP, we must
initialize all HTX error messages for all HTX-aware proxies and not only for
HTTP ones. It is required to support HTTP upgrade for TCP proxies.
This patch must be backported to 2.0.
These sample fetches rely on the static fnuction get_http_auth(). For HTX
streams and TCP proxies, this last one gets its HTX message from the request's
channel. When called from an HTTP rule, There is no problem. Bu when called from
TCP rules for a TCP proxy, this buffer is a raw buffer not an HTX message. For
instance, using the following TCP rule leads to a crash :
tcp-request content accept if { http_auth(Users) }
To fix the bug, we must rely on the HTX message returned by the function
smp_prefetch_htx(). So now, the HTX message is passed as argument to the
function get_http_auth().
This patch must be backported to 2.0 and 1.9.
Because the infinite forward is HTX aware, it is useless to tinker with the
number of bytes really sent. This was fixed long ago for the H1 and forgotten to
do so for the H2.
If si_connect() failed, do not try to install the mux nor to complete
the operations or add the connection to an idle list, and abort quickly
instead. No obvious side effects were identified, but continuing to
allocate some resources after something has already failed seems risky.
This was a result of a prior fix which already wanted to push this code
further : aa089d80b ("BUG/MEDIUM: server: Defer the mux init until after
xprt has been initialized.") but it ought to have pushed it even further
to maintain the error check just after si_connect().
To be backported to 2.0 and 1.9.
The temporary connection used to hold the target connection's address
was missing a valid target, resulting in a 500 server error being
reported when trying to connect to a remote host. Strangely this
issue was introduced as a side effect of commit 2c52a2b9e ("MEDIUM:
connection: make mux->detach() release the connection") which at
first glance looks unrelated but solidly stops the bisection (note
that by default this part even crashes). It's suspected that the
error only happens when closing and destroys pending data in fact.
Given that this feature was broken very early during 1.8-rc1 development
it doesn't seem to be used often. This must be backported as far as 1.8.
tcpcheck_main() might be called while we already attempted to subscribe, and
failed. There's no point in trying to call rcv_buf() again, and failing
would lead to us trying to subscribe again, which is not allowed.
This should be backported to 2.0 and 1.9.
A long time ago, applets were seen as an alternative to connections,
and since their respective sizes were roughly equal it appeared wise
to share the same pool. Nowadays, connections got significantly larger
but applets are not that often used, except for the cache. However
applets are mostly complementary and not alternatives anymore, as
it's very possible not to have a back connection or to share one with
other streams.
The connections will soon lose their addresses and their size will
shrink so much that appctx won't fit anymore. Given that the old
benefits of sharing these pools have long disappeared, let's stop
doing this and have a dedicated pool for appctx.
The do-resolve action tests for a client connection to the stream and
tries to get the client's address, otherwise it refrains from performing
the resolution. This really makes no sense at all and looks like an
earlier attempt at resolving the client's address to test that the
code was working. Further, it prevents the action from being used
from other places such as an autonomous applet for example, even if
at the moment this use case does not exist.
This patch simply removes the irrelevant test.
This can be backported to 2.0.
Counters for cache_hits and cache_lookups were added with commit
a1214a50 ("MINOR: cache: report the number of cache lookups and cache
hits") but not documented in management.txt.
Counters for connect and reuse were added in the stats with commit
f1573848 ("MINOR: backend: count the number of connect and reuse
per server and per backend") but not documented the CSV format in
management.txt

Since commit 81492c989 ("MINOR: threads: flatten the per-thread cpu-map"),
we don't keep the proc*thread matrix anymore to represent the full binding
possibilities, but only the proc and thread ones. The problem is that the
per-process binding is not the same for each thread and for the process,
and the proc[] array was assumed to store the per-proc first thread value
when doing this change. Worse, the logic present there tries to deal with
thread ranges and process ranges in a way which automatically exclused the
other possibility (since ranges cannot be used on both) but as such fails
to apply changes if neither the process nor the thread is expressed as a
range.
The real problem comes from the fact that specifying cpu-map 1/1 doesn't
yet reveal if the per-process mask or the per-thread mask needs to be
updated. In practice it's the thread one but then the current storage
doesn't allow to store the binding of the first thread of each other
process in nbproc>1 configurations.
When removing the proc*thread matrix, what ought to have been kept was
both the thread column for process 1 and the process line for threads 1,
but instead only the thread column was kept. This patch reintroduces the
storage of the configuration for the first thread of each process so that
it is again possible to store either the per-thread or per-process
configuration.
As a partial workaround for existing configurations, it is possible to
systematically indicate at least two processes or two threads at once
and map them by pairs or more so that at least two values are present
in the range. E.g :
# set processes 1-4 to cpus 0-3 :
cpu-map auto:1-4/1 0 1 2 3
# or:
cpu-map 1-2/1 0 1
cpu-map 2-3/1 2 3
# set threads 1-4 to cpus 0-3 :
cpu-map auto:1/1-4 0 1 2 3
# or :
cpu-map 1/1-2 0 1
cpu-map 3/3-4 2 3
This fix must be backported to 2.0.
This test uses two sets of tcp-check connect port rules, with one
of the two ports being closed and expects the check to fail for both
backends at different steps. It aims at detecting regressions such as
the one fixed by 7df8ca62 (BUG/MEDIUM: tcp-check: unbreak multiple
connect rules again).
