Now that we have free_acl_cond(cond) function that does cond prune then
frees cond, replace all occurences of this pattern:
| prune_acl_cond(cond)
| free(cond)
with:
| free_acl_cond(cond)
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.
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.

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.

This should address feature request GH #575
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"
ebpt_next_dup() was used 2 times in a row but only the first call was
checked against NULL, probably assuming that the 2 calls always yield the
same result here.
gcc is not OK with that, and it should be safer to store the result of
the first call in a temporary var to dereference it once checked against NULL.
This should fix GH #1869.
Thanks to Ilya for reporting this issue.
It may be backported up to 2.4.
This was already causing a deprecation warning and was marked for removal
in 2.7, now it happens. An error message indicates this doesn't exist
anymore.
This now makes sure that both the peers' "bind" line and the regular one
will use the exact same parser with the exact same behavior. Note that
the parser applies after the address and that it could be factored
further, since the peers one still does quite a bit of duplicated work.
negation or default modifiers are not supported for this option. However,
this was already tested earlier in cfg_parse_listen() function. Thus, when
"http-restrict-req-hdr-names" option is parsed, the keyword modifier is
always equal to KWM_STD. It is useless to test it again at this place.
This patch should solve the issue #1702.
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).
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.
Captures must only be defined in proxies with the frontend capabilities or
in defaults sections used by proxies with the frontend capabilities. Thus,
an extra check is added to be sure a defaults section defining a capture
will never be references by a backend.
Note that in this case, only named captures in "tcp-request content" or
"http-request" rules are possible. It is not possible in a defaults section
to decalre a capture slot. Not yet at least.
This patch must be backported to 2.5. It is releated to issue #1674.
The server_id_hdr_name is already processed as an ist in various locations lets
also just store it as such.
see 0643b0e7e ("MINOR: proxy: Make `header_unique_id` a `struct ist`") for a
very similar past commit.
The orgto_hdr_name is already processed as an ist in `http_process_request`,
lets also just store it as such.
see 0643b0e7e ("MINOR: proxy: Make `header_unique_id` a `struct ist`") for a
very similar past commit.
The fwdfor_hdr_name is already processed as an ist in `http_process_request`,
lets also just store it as such.
see 0643b0e7e ("MINOR: proxy: Make `header_unique_id` a `struct ist`") for a
very similar past commit.
The monitor_uri is already processed as an ist in `http_wait_for_request`, lets
also just store it as such.
see 0643b0e7e ("MINOR: proxy: Make `header_unique_id` a `struct ist`") for a
very similar past commit.
When the sample validity flags are computed to check if a sample is used in
a valid scope, the flags depending on the proxy capabilities must be
cumulated. Historically, for a sample on the request, only the frontend
capability was used to set the sample validity flags while for a sample on
the response only the backend was used. But it is a problem for listen or
defaults proxies. For those proxies, all frontend and backend samples should
be valid. However, at many place, only frontend ones are possible.
For instance, it is impossible to set the backend name (be_name) into a
variable from a listen proxy.
This bug exists on all stable versions. Thus this patch should probably be
backported. But with some caution because the code has probably changed
serveral times. Note that nobody has ever noticed this issue. So the need to
backport this patch must be evaluated for each branch.
TCP and HTTP rules can now be defined in defaults sections, but only those
with a name. Because these rules may use conditions based on ACLs, ACLs can
also be defined in defaults sections.
However there are some limitations:
* A defaults section defining TCP/HTTP rules cannot be used by a defaults
section
* A defaults section defining TCP/HTTP rules cannot be used bu a listen
section
* A defaults sections defining TCP/HTTP rules cannot be used by frontends
and backends at the same time
* A defaults sections defining 'tcp-request connection' or 'tcp-request
session' rules cannot be used by backends
* A defaults sections defining 'tcp-response content' rules cannot be used
by frontends
The TCP request/response inspect-delay of a proxy is now inherited from the
defaults section it uses. For now, these rules are only parsed. No evaluation is
performed.
With the commit eaba25dd9 ("BUG/MINOR: tcpcheck: Don't use arg list for
default proxies during parsing"), we restricted the use of sample fetch in
tcpcheck rules defined in a defaults section to those depending on explicit
arguments only. This means a tcpcheck rules defined in a defaults section
cannot rely on argument unresolved during the configuration parsing.
Thanks to recent changes, it is now possible again.
This patch is mandatory to support TCP/HTTP rules in defaults sections.
When the parsing of a defaults section is started, the previous anonymous
defaults section is removed. It may be a problem with referenced defaults
sections. And because all unused defautl proxies are removed after the
configuration parsing, it is not required to remove it so early.
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.
.disabled field in the proxy structure is documented to be a bitfield. So
use it as a bitfield. This change was introduced to the 2.5, by commit
8e765b86f ("MINOR: proxy: disabled takes a stopping and a disabled state").
No backport is needed except if the above commit is backported.
This option can be used to define a specific log format that will be
used in case of error, timeout, connection failure on a frontend... It
will be used for any log line concerned by the log-separate-errors
option. It will also replace the format of specific error messages
decribed in section 8.2.6.
If no "error-log-format" is defined, the legacy error messages are still
emitted and the other error logs keep using the regular log-format.
This patch splits the disabled state of a proxy into a PR_DISABLED and a
PR_STOPPED state.
The first one is set when the proxy is disabled in the configuration
file, and the second one is set upon a stop_proxy().
This option had always been broken in HTX, which means that the first
breakage appeared in 1.9, that it was broken by default in 2.0 and that
no workaround existed starting with 2.1. The way this option works is
praticularly unfit to the rest of the configuration and to the internal
architecture. It had some uses when it was introduced 14 years ago but
nowadays it's possible to do much better and more reliable using a
set of "http-request set-dst" and "http-request set-uri" rules, which
additionally are compatible with DNS resolution (via do-resolve) and
are not exclusive to normal load balancing. The "option-http_proxy"
example config file was updated to reflect this.
The option is still parsed so that an error message gives hints about
what to look for.
Lots of places iterating over nbproc or comparing with nbproc could be
simplified. Further, "bind-process" and "process" parsing that was
already limited to process 1 or "all" or "odd" resulted in a bind_proc
field that was either 0 or 1 during the init phase and later always 1.
All the checks for compatibilities were removed since it's not possible
anymore to run a frontend and a backend on different processes or to
have peers and stick-tables bound on different ones. This is the largest
part of this patch.
The bind_proc field was removed from both the proxy and the receiver
structs.
Since the "process" and "bind-process" directives are still parsed,
configs making use of correct values allowing process 1 will continue
to work.
Commit ab0a5192a ("MEDIUM: config: mark "grace" as deprecated") marked
the "grace" keyword as deprecated in 2.3, tentative removal for 2.4
with a hard deadline in 2.5, so let's remove it and return an error now.
This old and outdated feature was incompatible with soft-stop, reload
and socket transfers, and keeping it forced ugly hacks in the lower
layers of the protocol stack.
It was marked as deprecated in 2.1-dev2 and for removal in 2.2, but it
was missed. A warning was already emitted and the doc didn't refer to
it any more, let's now get rid of it.
It's been warning as being deprecated since 2.0-dev4, it's about time
to drop it now. The error message recommends to either remove it or
use "option httpclose" instead. It's still referred to in the old
internal doc about the connection header, which itself seems highly
inaccurate by now.
Add a new proxy capability for proxy with load-balancing capabilities.
This help to differentiate listen/frontend/backend with special proxies
such as peer proxies.
Add a new flag to mark a keyword as experimental. An experimental
keyword cannot be used if the global 'expose-experimental-directives' is
not present first.
Only keywords parsed through a standard cfg_keywords lists in
global/proxies section will be automatically detected if declared
experimental. To support a keyword outside of these lists,
check_kw_experimental must be called manually during its parsing.
If an experimental keyword is present in the config, the tainted flag is
updated.
For the moment, no keyword is marked as experimental.
The current "ADD" vs "ADDQ" is confusing because when thinking in terms
of appending at the end of a list, "ADD" naturally comes to mind, but
here it does the opposite, it inserts. Several times already it's been
incorrectly used where ADDQ was expected, the latest of which was a
fortunate accident explained in 6fa922562 ("CLEANUP: stream: explain
why we queue the stream at the head of the server list").
Let's use more explicit (but slightly longer) names now:
LIST_ADD -> LIST_INSERT
LIST_ADDQ -> LIST_APPEND
LIST_ADDED -> LIST_INLIST
LIST_DEL -> LIST_DELETE
The same is true for MT_LISTs, including their "TRY" variant.
LIST_DEL_INIT keeps its short name to encourage to use it instead of the
lazier LIST_DELETE which is often less safe.
The change is large (~674 non-comment entries) but is mechanical enough
to remain safe. No permutation was performed, so any out-of-tree code
can easily map older names to new ones.
The list doc was updated.
All allocation errors in cfg_parse_listen() are now handled in a unique
place under the "alloc_error" label. This simplify a bit error handling in
this function.
At several places during the proxy section parsing, memory allocation was
performed with no check. Result is now tested and an error is returned if
the allocation fails.
This patch may be backported to all stable version but it only fixes
allocation errors during configuration parsing. Thus, it is not mandatory.
Allocation error are now handled in bind_conf_alloc() functions. Thus
callers, when not already done, are also updated to catch NULL return value.
This patch may be backported (at least partially) to all stable
versions. However, it only fix errors durung configuration parsing. Thus it
is not mandatory.
Allocated variables are now released when an error occurred during
use_backend, use-server, force/ignore-parsing, stick-table, stick and stats
directives parsing. For some of these directives, allocation errors have
been added.
This patch may be backported to all stable version but it only fixes leaks
or allocation errors during configuration parsing. Thus, it is not
mandatory. It should fix issue #1119.
This patch registers the parsed file and the line where a log server
is declared to make those information available in configuration
post check.
Those new informations were added on error messages probed resolving
ring names on post configuration check.
Create a new function parse_new_proxy specifically designed to allocate
a new proxy from the configuration file and copy settings from the
default proxy.
The function alloc_new_proxy is reduced to a minimal allocation. It is
used for default proxy allocation and could also be used for internal
proxies such as the lua Socket proxy.
Modify the API of parse_server function. Use flags to describe the type
of the parsed server instead of discrete arguments. These flags can be
used to specify if a server/default-server/server-template is parsed.
Additional parameters are also specified (parsing of the address
required, resolve of a name must be done immediately).
It is now unneeded to use strcmp on args[0] in parse_server. Also, the
calls to parse_server are more explicit thanks to the flags.
Some are not always easy to spot with "chk" vs "check" or hyphens at
some places and not at others. Now entering "option http-close" properly
suggests "httpclose" and "option tcp-chk" suggests "tcp-check". There's
no need to consider the proxy's capabilities, what matters is to figure
what related word the user tried to spell, and there are not that many
options anyway.
Just like with the server keywords, now's the turn of "bind" keywords.
The difference is that 100% of the bind keywords are registered, thus
we do not need the list of extra keywords.
There are multiple bind line parsers today, all were updated:
- peers
- log
- dgram-bind
- cli
$ printf "listen f\nbind :8000 tcut\n" | ./haproxy -c -f /dev/stdin

[ALERT] 070/101358 (25146) : Fatal errors found in configuration.
Let's start by the largest keyword list, the listeners. Many keywords were
still not part of a list, so a common_kw_list array was added to list the
not enumerated ones. Now for example, typing "tmout" properly suggests
"timeout":
$ printf "frontend f\ntmout client 10s\n" | ./haproxy -c -f /dev/stdin
[NOTICE] 070/091355 (22545) : haproxy version is 2.4-dev11-3b728a-21
