In recent splice fixes we made splice call chk_snd, but this was due
to inappropriate checks in conn_notify_si() which prevented the chk_snd()
call from being performed. Now that this has been fixed, remove this
duplicate code.
It's more efficient to centralize polling changes, which is already done
in the connection handler. So now all I/O callbacks just change flags and
rely on the connection handler for the commit. The special case of the
send loop is handled by the chk_snd() function which does an update at
the end.
These ones should only be handled by the stream interface at the end
of the handshake now. Similarly a number of information are now taken
at the connection level rather than at the data level (eg: shutdown).
Fast polling updates have been used instead of slow ones since the
function is only called by the connection handler.
This function was relying on the result of file descriptor polling
which is inappropriate as it may be subject to race conditions during
handshakes. Make it more robust by relying solely on buffer activity.
The splicing is now provided by the data-layer rcv_pipe/snd_pipe functions
which in turn are called by the stream interface's recv and send callbacks.
The presence of the rcv_pipe/snd_pipe functions is used to attest support
for splicing at the data layer. It looks like the stream-interface's
SI_FL_CAP_SPLICE flag does not make sense anymore as it's used as a proxy
for the pointers above.
It also appears that we call chk_snd() from the recv callback and then
try to call it again in update_conn(). It is very likely that this last
function will progressively slip into the recv/send callbacks in order
to avoid duplicate check code.
The code works right now with and without splicing. Only raw_sock provides
support for it and it is automatically selected when the various splice
options are set. However it looks like splice-auto doesn't enable it, which
possibly means that the streamer detection code does not work anymore, or
that it's only called at a time where it's too late to enable splicing (in
process_session).
Similar to what was done on the receive path, the data layer now provides
only an snd_buf() callback that is iterated over by the stream interface's
si_conn_send_loop() function.
The data layer now has no knowledge about channels nor stream interfaces.
The splice() code still need to be ported as it currently is disabled.
The recv function is now generic and is usable to iterate any connection-to-buf
reading function from a stream interface. So let's move it to stream-interface.
The "raw_sock" prefix will be more convenient for naming functions as
it will be prefixed with the data layer and suffixed with the data
direction. So let's rename the files now to avoid any further confusion.
The #include directive was also removed from a number of files which do
not need it anymore.
At the moment, the struct is still embedded into the struct channel, but
all the functions have been updated to use struct buffer only when possible,
otherwise struct channel. Some functions would likely need to be splitted
between a buffer-layer primitive and a channel-layer function.
Later the buffer should become a pointer in the struct buffer, but doing so
requires a few changes to the buffer allocation calls.
This is a massive rename. We'll then split channel and buffer.
This change needs a lot of cleanups. At many locations, the parameter
or variable is still called "buf" which will become ambiguous. Also,
the "struct channel" is still defined in buffers.h.
This function is used by the data layer when a zero has been read over a
connection. At the moment it only handles sockets and nothing else. Once
the complete split is done between buffers and stream interfaces, it should
become possible to work regardless on the connection type.
The connection send() callback is supposed to be generic for a
stream-interface, and consists in calling the lower layer snd_buf
function. Move this function to the stream interface and remove
the sock-raw and sock-ssl clones.
sock_raw and sock_ssl use a pretty generic chk_rcv function, so let's move
this function to the stream_interface and remove specific functions. Later
we might have a single chk_rcv function.
We need to have a generic function to be called by upper layers when buffer
flags have been updated (the si->update function). At the moment, both sock_raw
and sock_ssl had their own which basically was a copy-paste. Since these
functions are only used to update stream interface flags, it is logical to
have them handled by the stream interface code.
This allowed us to remove the stream_interface-specific update function from
sock_raw and sock_ssl which now use the generic code.
The stream_sock_update_conn callback has also been more appropriately renamed
conn_notify_si() since it's meant to be called by lower layers to notify the
SI and possibly upper layers about incoming changes.
This is a second attempt at getting rid of FD_WAIT_*. Now the situation is
much better since native I/O handlers can directly manipulate the FD using
fd_{poll|want|stop}_* and the connection handlers manipulate connection-level
flags using the conn_{data|sock}_* equivalent.
Proceeding this way ensures that the connection flags always reflect the
reality even after data<->handshake switches.
Now the connection handler, the handshake callbacks and the I/O callbacks
make use of the connection-layer polling functions to enable or disable
polling on a file descriptor.
Some changes still need to be done to avoid using the FD_WAIT_* constants.
These functions have a more explicity meaning and will offer provisions
for explicit polling.
EV_FD_ISSET() has been left for now as it is still in use in checks.
Up to now, we had to use a shutr/shutw interface per data layer, which
basically means 3 distinct functions when we include SSL :
- generic stream_interface
- sock_raw
- sock_ssl
With this change, the code located in the stream_interface manages all the
stream_interface and buffer updates, and calls the data layer hooks when
needed.
At the moment, the socket layer hook had been implicitly considered as
being a regular socket, so the si_shut*() functions call the normal
shutdown() and EV_FD_CLR() functions on the fd if a socket layer is
defined. This may change in the future. The stream_int_shut*()
functions don't call EV_FD_CLR() so that they can later be embedded
in lower layers.
Thus, the si->data->shutr() is not called anymore and si->data->shutw()
is called to close the data layer only (eg: only for SSL).
Proceeding like this is very important because it's the only way to be
able not to rely on these functions when called from the connection
handlers, and call the data layers' instead.
Handshakes is not called anymore from the data handlers, they're only
called from the connection handler when their flag is set.
Also, this move has uncovered an issue with the stream interface notifier :
it doesn't consider the FD_WAIT_* flags possibly set by the handshake
handlers. This will result in a stuck handshake when no data is in the
output buffer. In order to cover this, for now we'll perform the EV_FD_SET
in the SSL handshake function, but this needs to be addressed separately
from the stream interface operations.
This new flag is used to indicate that the connection was already
connected. It can be used by I/O handlers to know that a connection
has just completed. It is used by stream_sock_update_conn(), allowing
the sock_opt handlers not to manipulate the SI timeout nor the
BF_WRITE_NULL flag anymore.
It's better to have only stream_sock_update_conn() handle the conversion
of the CO_FL_ERROR flag to SI_FL_ERR than having it in each and every I/O
callback.
The socket data layer code must only focus on moving data between a
socket and a buffer. We need a special stream interface handler to
update the stream interface and the file descriptor status.
At the moment the code works but suffers from a race condition caused
by its API : the read/write callbacks still make use of the fd instead
of using the connection. And when a double shutdown is performed, a call
to ->write() after ->read() processed an error results in dereferencing
a NULL fdtab[]->owner. This is only a temporary issue which doesn't need
to be fixed now since this will automatically go away when the functions
change to use the connection instead.
This handshake handler must be independant, so move it away from
proto_tcp. It has a dedicated connection flag. It is tested before
I/O handlers and automatically removes the CO_FL_WAIT_L4_CONN flag
upon success.
It also sets the BF_WRITE_NULL flag on the stream interface and
stops the SI timeout. However it does not perform the task_wakeup(),
and relies on the data handler to do so for now. The SI wakeup will
have to be moved elsewhere anyway.
Herv Commowick reported a failure to resync upon restart caused by a
segfault on the old process. This is due to the data_ctx of the connection
being initialized after the stream interface.
This function will be called later when splitting the shutdown in two
steps. It will be needed by SSL and for remote socket operations to
release unused contexts.
The state and the private pointer are not specific to the applets, since SSL
will require exactly both of them. Move them to the connection layer now and
rename them. We also now ensure that both are NULL on first call.
We start to move everything needed to manage a connection to a special
entity "struct connection". We have the data layer operations and the
control operations there. We'll also have more info in the future such
as file descriptors and applet contexts, so that in the end it becomes
detachable from the stream interface, which will allow connections to
be reused between sessions.
For now on, we start with minimal changes.
Calling the init() function in sess_establish was a bad idea, it is
too late to allow it to fail on lack of resource and does not help at
all. Remove it for now before it's used.
Similarly to the previous patch, we don't need the socket-layer functions
outside of stream_interface. They could even move to a file dedicated to
applets, though that does not seem particularly useful at the moment.
We'll soon have an SSL socket layer, and in order to ease the difference
between the two, we use the name "sock_raw" to designate the one which
directly talks to the sockets without any conversion.
These operators are used regardless of the socket protocol family. Move
them to a "sock_ops" struct. ->read and ->write have been moved there too
as they have no reason to remain at the protocol level.
This is in fact where those parts belong to. The old data_state was replaced
by applet.state and is now initialized when the applet is registered. It's
worth noting that the applet does not need to know the session nor the
buffer anymore since everything is brought by the stream interface.
It is possible that having a separate applet struct would simplify the
code but that's not a big deal.
Now that we have the target pointer and type in the stream interface,
we don't need the applet.handler pointer anymore. That makes the code
somewhat cleaner because we know we're dealing with an applet by checking
its type instead of checking the pointer is not null.
When doing a connect() on a stream interface, some information is needed
from the server and from the backend. In some situations, we don't have
a server and only a backend (eg: peers). In other cases, we know we have
an applet and we don't want to connect to anything, but we'd still like
to have the info about the applet being used.
For this, we now store a pointer to the "target" into the stream interface.
The target describes what's on the other side before trying to connect. It
can be a server, a proxy or an applet for now. Later we'll probably have
descriptors for multiple-stage chains so that the final information may
still be found.
This will help removing many specific cases in the code. It already made
it possible to remove the "srv" and "be" parameters to tcpv4_connect_server().
I/O handlers are still delicate to manipulate. They have no type, they're
just raw functions which have no knowledge of themselves. Let's have them
declared as applets once for all. That way we can have multiple applets
share the same handler functions and we can store their names there. When
we later need to add more parameters (eg: usage stats), we'll be able to
do so in the applets themselves.
The CLI functions has been prefixed with "cli" instead of "stats" as it's
clearly what is going on there.
The applet descriptor in the stream interface should get all the applet
specific data (st0, ...) but this will be done in the next patch so that
we don't pollute this one too much.
When a client connection aborts while the server-side connection is in
turn-around after a failed connection attempt, the turn-around timeout
is reset in shutw() but the state is not changed. The session then
remains stuck in this state forever. Change the QUE and TAR states to
DIS just as we do for CER to fix this.
This patch should be backported to 1.4.
When an error message is returned to a client, all buffer contents
were left intact. Since the analysers were removed, the potentially
invalid data that were read had a chance to be sent too.
Now we ensure we only keep the already scheduled data in the buffer
and we truncate it after that. That means that responses with data
that must be blocked will really be blocked, and that incorrectly
chunked data will be stopped at the point where the chunking fails.
si->release() was called each time we closed one direction of a stream
interface, while it should only have been called when both sides are
closed. This bug is specific to 1.5 and only affects embedded tasks.
Now we stop relying on BF_READ_DONTWAIT, which is unrelated to the
wakeups, and only consider activity to decide whether to wake the task
up instead of considering the other side's activity. It is worth noting
that the local stream interface's flags were not updated consecutively
to a call to chk_snd(), which could possibly result in hung tasks from
time to time. This fix will avoid possible loops and uncaught events.
