In the past we've seen "show servers state" dump some internal bits for
the check states, that were causing regtests to fail. The relevant bits
have been added to the doc to fix the public API and make sure they do
not change by accident, but the output doesn't take care of masking the
undesired ones, causing regtests (and possibly user programs) to fail
when new bits are added. Let's add the mask for the only documented ones
(0x0F for check and 0x1F for agent respectively).
This could be backported wherever the server state is present, though
there's a tiny risk that some undocumented bits might have already
leaked to some user scripts, so it might be wise to wait a bit before
doing that or even not to backport too far.
Add HA_ANON_CLI to the srv->hostname when using 'show servers state'.
It can contain sensitive information like 'www....com'
No backport needed, except if anonymization mechanism is backported.
Replace HA_ANON_CLI by hash_ipanon to anonynmized address like
anonymizing address in the configuration file.
No backport needed, except if anonymization mechanism is backported.
Modify proxy.c in order to anonymize the following confidential data on
commands 'show servers state' and 'show servers conn':
- proxy name
- server name
- server address
Ed Hein reported in github issue #1856 some occasional watchdog panics
in 2.4.18 showing extreme contention on the proxy's lock while the libc
was in malloc()/free(). One cause of this problem is that we call free()
under the proxy's lock in proxy_capture_error(), which makes no sense
since if we can free the object under the lock after it's been detached,
we can also free it after releasing the lock (since it's not referenced
anymore).
This should be backported to all relevant versions, likely all
supported ones.
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
There was a race involving hlua_proxy_* functions
and some proxy management functions.
pause_proxy() and resume_proxy() can be used directly from lua code,
but that could lead to some race as lua code didn't make sure PROXY_LOCK
was owned before calling the proxy functions.
This patch makes sure it won't happen again elsewhere in the code
by locking PROXY_LOCK directly in resume and pause proxy functions
so that it's not the caller's responsibility anymore.
(based on stop_proxy() behavior that was already safe prior to the patch)
This should be backported to stable series.
Note that the API will likely differ < 2.4
On frontend side, "h1-case-adjust-bogus-client" option is now supported in
TCP mode. It is important to be able to adjust the case of response headers
when a connection is routed to an HTTP backend. In this case, the client
connection is upgraded to H1.
On backend side, "h1-case-adjust-bogus-server" option is now also supported
in TCP mode to be able to perform HTTP health-checks with a case adjustment
of the request headers.
This patch should be backported as far as 2.0.
When a proxy is initialized with the settings of the default proxy, instead
of doing a raw copy of the default server settings, a custom copy is now
performed by calling srv_settings_copy(). This way, all settings will be
really duplicated. Without this deep copy, some pointers are shared between
several servers, leading to UAF, double-free or such bugs.
This patch relies on following commits:
* b32cb9b51 REORG: server: Export srv_settings_cpy() function
* 0b365e3cb MINOR: server: Constify source server to copy its settings
This patch should fix the issue #1804. It must be backported as far as 2.0.
protocol_stop_now() is called from do_soft_stop_now() running on any
thread that received the signal. The problem is that it will call some
listener handlers to close the FD, resulting in an fd_delete() being
called from the wrong group. That's not clean and we cannot even rely
on the thread mask to show up.
One interesting long-term approach could be to have kill queues for
FDs, and maybe we'll need them in the long run. However that doesn't
work well for listeners in this situation.
Let's simply isolate ourselves during this instant. We know we'll be
alone dealing with the close and that the FD will be instantly deleted
since not in use by any other thread. It's not the cleanest solution
but it should last long enough without causing trouble.
Let's rely on tg->threads_enabled there to detect running threads. We
should probably have a dedicated function for this in order to simplify
the code and avoid the risk of using the wrong group ID.
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.
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.
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.
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.
This applies the change so that the applet code stops using ci_putchk()
and friends everywhere possible, for the much saferapplet_put*() instead.
The change is mechanical but large. Two or three functions used to have no
appctx and a cs derived from the appctx instead, which was a reminiscence
of old times' stream_interface. These were simply changed to directly take
the appctx. No sensitive change was performed, and the old (more complex)
API is still usable when needed (e.g. the channel is already known).
The change touched roughly a hundred of locations, with no less than 124
lines removed.
It's worth noting that the stats applet, the oldest of the series, could
get a serious lifting, as it's still very channel-centric instead of
propagating the appctx along the chain. Given that this code doesn't
change often, there's no emergency to clean it up but it would look
better.
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.
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 command uses a pointer to the current proxy being dumped, one to the
current server being dumped, an optional ID of the only proxy to dump
(which is in fact used as a boolean), and a flag indicating if we're
doing a "show servers conn" or a "show servers state". Let's move all
this to a struct show_srv_ctx.
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.
Commit e7f74623e ("MINOR: stats: don't output internal proxies (PR_CAP_INT)")
in 2.5 ensured we don't dump internal proxies on the stats page, but the
same is needed for "show backend", as since the addition of the HTTP client
it now appears there:
$ socat /tmp/sock1 - <<< "show backend"
# name
<HTTPCLIENT>
This needs to be backported to 2.5.
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'.
There were plenty of leftovers from old code that were never removed
and that are not needed at all since these files do not use any
definition depending on fcntl.h, let's drop them.
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.
Since the 2.5, it is possible to define TCP/HTTP ruleset in defaults
sections. However, rules defining a capture in defaults sections was not
properly handled because they was not shared with the proxies inheriting
from the defaults section. This led to crash when haproxy tried to store a
new capture.
So now, to fix the issue, when a new proxy is created, the list of captures
points to the list of its defaults section. It may be NULL or not. All new
caputres are prepended to this list. It is not a problem to share the same
defaults section between several proxies, because it is not altered and we
take care to not release it when corresponding proxies are freed but only
when defaults proxies are freed. To do so, defaults proxies are now
unreferenced at the end of free_proxy() function instead of the beginning.
This patch should fix the issue #1674. It must be backported to 2.5.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 server_id_hdr_name is already processed as an ist in various locations lets
also just store it as such.

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.
As reported by Coverity in issue #1568, a missing initialization of the
error message pointer in parse_new_proxy() may result in displaying garbage
or crashing in case of memory allocation error when trying to create a new
proxy on startup.
This should be backported to 2.4.
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.
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 proxy part.
