Right now the connection subscribe/unsubscribe code needs to manipulate
FDs, which is not compatible with QUIC. In practice what we need there
is to be able to either subscribe or wake up depending on readiness at
the moment of subscription.
This commit introduces two new functions at the control layer, which are
provided by the socket code, to check for FD readiness or subscribe to it
at the control layer. For now it's not used.
This is what we need to drain pending incoming data from an connection.
The code was taken from conn_sock_drain() without the connection-specific
stuff. It still takes a connection for now for API simplicity.
Currnetly conn_ctrl_init() does an fd_insert() and conn_ctrl_close() does an
fd_delete(). These are the two only short-term obstacles against using a
non-fd handle to set up a connection. Let's have pur these into the protocol
layer, along with the other connection-level stuff so that the generic
connection code uses them instead. This will allow to define new ones for
other protocols (e.g. QUIC).
Since we only support regular sockets at the moment, the code was placed
into sock.c and shared with proto_tcp, proto_uxst and proto_sockpair.
For the sake of an improved readability, let's group the protocol
field members according to where they're supposed to be defined:
- connection layer (note: for now even UDP needs one)
- binding layer
- address family
- socket layer
Nothing else was changed.
The various protocols were made static since there was no point in
exporting them in the past. Nowadays with QUIC relying on UDP we'll
significantly benefit from UDP being exported and more generally from
being able to declare some functions as being the same as other
protocols'.
In an ideal world it should not be these protocols which should be
exported, but the intermediary levels:
- socket layer (sock.c only right now), already exported as functions
but nothing structured at the moment ;
- family layer (sock_inet, sock_unix, sockpair etc): already structured
and exported
- binding layer (the part that relies on the receiver): currently fused
within the protocol
- connectiong layer (the part that manipulates connections): currently
fused within the protocol
- protocol (connection's control): shouldn't need to be exposed
ultimately once the elements above are in an easily sharable way.
This field used to be needed before commit 2b5e0d8b6 ("MEDIUM: proto_udp:
replace last AF_CUST_UDP* with AF_INET*") as it was used as a protocol
entry selector. Since this commit it's always equal to the socket family's
value so it's entirely redundant. Let's remove it now to simplify the
protocol definition a little bit.
With the removal of the family-specific port setting, all protocol had
exactly the same implementation of ->add(). A generic one was created
with the name "default_add_listener" so that all other ones can now be
removed. The API was slightly adjusted so that the protocol and the
listener are passed instead of the listener and the port.
Note that all protocols continue to provide this ->add() method instead
of routinely calling default_add_listener() from create_listeners(). This
makes sure that any non-standard protocol will still be able to intercept
the listener addition if needed.
This could be backported to 2.3 along with the few previous patches on
listners as a pure code cleanup.
We used to refrain from calling fd_want_recv() if fd_updt was not allocated
but it's not the right solution as this does not allow the FD to be set.
Instead, let's use the new fd_want_recv_safe() which will update the FD and
create an update entry only if possible. In addition, the equivalent test
before calling fd_stop_recv() was removed as totally useless since there's
not fd_updt creation in this case.
We don't need to specify the handler anymore since it's set in the
receiver. Let's remove this argument from the function and clean up
the remains of code that were still setting it.
Now we define a new sock_accept_iocb() for socket-based stream protocols
and use it as a wrapper for listener_accept() which now takes a listener
and not an FD anymore. This will allow the receiver's I/O cb to be
redefined during registration, and more specifically to get rid of the
hard-coded hacks in protocol_bind_all() made for syslog.
The previous ->accept() callback in the protocol was removed since it
doesn't have anything to do with accept() anymore but is more generic.
A few places where listener_accept() was compared against the FD's IO
callback for debugging purposes on the CLI were updated.
This is the same as previous commit, but this time for the sockpair-
specific stuff, relying on recv_fd_uxst() instead of accept(), so the
code is simpler. The various errno cases are handled like for regular
sockets, though some of them will probably never happen, but this does
not hurt.
This call was introduced by commit 5ced3e887 ("MINOR: sock: add
sock_accept_conn() to test a listening socket") but is actually quite
confusing because it makes one think the socket will accept a connection
(which is what we want to have in a new function) while it only tells
whether it's configured to accept connections. Let's call it
sock_accepting_conn() instead.
The same change was applied to sockpair which had the same issue.
For socket pairs we don't rely on a real listening socket but we need to
have a properly connected UNIX stream socket. This is what the new
sockpair_accept_conn() tries to report. Some corner cases like half
shutdown will still not be detected but that should be sufficient for
most cases we really care about.
The inner part now goes into the protocol and is used to decide how to
unbind a given protocol's listener. The existing code which is able to
also unbind the receiver was provided as a default function that we
currently use everywhere. Some complex listeners like QUIC will use this
to decide how to unbind without impacting existing connections, possibly
by setting up other incoming paths for the traffic.
This is used as a generic way to unbind a receiver at the end of
do_unbind_listener(). This allows to considerably simplify that function
since we can now let the protocol perform the cleanup. The generic code
was moved to sock.c, along with the conditional rx_disable() call. Now
the code also supports that the ->disable() function of the protocol
which acts on the listener performs the close itself and adjusts the
RX_F_BUOND flag accordingly.
These methods will be used to enable/disable accepting new connections
so that listeners do not play with FD directly anymore. Since all the
currently supported protocols work on socket for now, these are identical
to the rx_enable/rx_disable functions. However they were not defined in
sock.c since it's likely that some will quickly start to differ. At the
moment they're not used.
We have to take care of fd_updt before calling fd_{want,stop}_recv()
because it's allocated fairly late in the boot process and some such
functions may be called very early (e.g. to stop a disabled frontend's
listeners).
These methods will be used to enable/disable rx at the receiver level so
that callers don't play with FDs directly anymore. All our protocols use
the generic ones from sock.c at the moment. For now they're not used.
The ->pause method is inappropriate since it doesn't exactly "pause" a
listener but rather temporarily disables it so that it's not visible at
all to let another process take its place. The term "suspend" is more
suitable, since the "pause" is actually what we'll need to apply to the
FULL and LIMITED states which really need to make a pause in the accept
process. And it goes well with the use of the "resume" function that
will also need to be made per-protocol.
Let's rename the function and make it act on the receiver since it's
already what it essentially does, hence the prefix "_rx" to make it
more explicit.
The protocol struct was a bit reordered because it was becoming a real
mess between the parts related to the listeners and those for the
receivers.
Since the listeners were split into receiver+listener, this field ought
to have been renamed because it's confusing. It really links receivers
and not listeners, as most of the time it's used via rx.proto_list!
The nb_listeners field was updated accordingly.
This function is used as a wrapper to set a listener's state everywhere.
We'll use it later to maintain some counters in a consistent state when
switching state so it's capital that all state changes go through it.
No functional change was made beyond calling the wrapper.
This one will be needed to more accurately select a protocol. It may
differ from the socket type for QUIC, which uses dgram at the socket
layer and provides stream at the control layer. The upper level requests
a control layer only so we need this field.
This removes the following fields from struct protocol that are now
retrieved from the protocol family instead: .sock_family, .sock_addrlen,
.l3_addrlen, .addrcmp, .bind, .get_src, .get_dst.
This also removes the UDP-specific udp{,6}_get_{src,dst}() functions
which were referenced but not used yet. Their goal was only to remap
the original AF_INET* addresses to AF_CUST_UDP*.
Note that .sock_domain is still there as it's used as a selector for
the protocol struct to be used.
We need to specially handle protocol families which regroup common
functions used for a given address family. These functions include
bind(), addrcmp(), get_src() and get_dst() for now. Some fields are
also added about the address family, socket domain (protocol family
passed to the socket() syscall), and address length.
These protocol families are referenced from the protocols but not yet
used.
All protocol's listeners now only take care of themselves and not of
the receiver anymore since that's already being done in proto_bind_all().
Now it finally becomes obvious that UDP doesn't need a listener, as the
only thing it does is to set the listener's state to LI_LISTEN!
Note that for now we don't have a sockpair.c file to host that unusual
family, so the new function was placed directly into proto_sockpair.c.
It's no big deal given that this family is currently not shared with
multiple protocols.
The function does almost nothing but setting up the receiver. This is
normal as the socket the FDs are passed onto are supposed to have been
already created somewhere else, and the only usable identifier for such
a socket pair is the receiving FD itself.
The function was assigned to sockpair's ->bind() and is not used yet.
In order to split the receiver from the listener, we'll need to know that
a socket is already bound and ready to receive. We used to do that via
tha LI_O_ASSIGNED state but that's not sufficient anymore since the
receiver might not belong to a listener anymore. The new RX_F_BOUND flag
is used for this.
Some socket settings used to be retrieved via the listener and the
bind_conf. Now instead we use the receiver and its settings whenever
appropriate. This will simplify the removal of the dependency on the
listener.
The receiver is the one which depends on the protocol while the listener
relies on the receiver. Let's move the protocol there. Since there's also
a list element to get back to the listener from the proto list, this list
element (proto_list) was moved as well. For now when scanning protos, we
still see listeners which are linked by their rx.proto_list part.
The listening socket is represented by its file descriptor, which is
generic to all receivers and not just listeners, so it must move to
the rx struct.
It's worth noting that in order to extend receivers and listeners to
other protocols such as QUIC, we'll need other handles than file
descriptors here, and that either a union or a cast to uintptr_t
will have to be used. This was not done yet and the field was
preserved under the name "fd" to avoid adding confusion.
This patch fixes all the leftovers from the include cleanup campaign. There
were not that many (~400 entries in ~150 files) but it was definitely worth
doing it as it revealed a few duplicates.
Most of the files dealing with error reports have to include log.h in order
to access ha_alert(), ha_warning() etc. But while these functions don't
depend on anything, log.h depends on a lot of stuff because it deals with
log-formats and samples. As a result it's impossible not to embark long
dependencies when using ha_warning() or qfprintf().
This patch moves these low-level functions to errors.h, which already
defines the error codes used at the same places. About half of the users
of log.h could be adjusted, sometimes revealing other issues such as
missing tools.h. Interestingly the total preprocessed size shrunk by
4%.
The current state of the logging is a real mess. The main problem is
that almost all files include log.h just in order to have access to
the alert/warning functions like ha_alert() etc, and don't care about
logs. But log.h also deals with real logging as well as log-format and
depends on stream.h and various other things. As such it forces a few
heavy files like stream.h to be loaded early and to hide missing
dependencies depending where it's loaded. Among the missing ones is
syslog.h which was often automatically included resulting in no less
than 3 users missing it.
Among 76 users, only 5 could be removed, and probably 70 don't need the
full set of dependencies.
A good approach would consist in splitting that file in 3 parts:
- one for error output ("errors" ?).
- one for log_format processing
- and one for actual logging.
The type file is becoming a mess, half of it is for the proxy protocol,
another good part describes conn_streams and mux ops, it would deserve
being split again. At least it was reordered so that elements are easier
to find, with the PP-stuff left at the end. The MAX_SEND_FD macro was moved
to compat.h as it's said to be the value for Linux.
The TASK_IS_TASKLET() macro was moved to the proto file instead of the
type one. The proto part was a bit reordered to remove a number of ugly
forward declaration of static inline functions. About a tens of C and H
files had their dependency dropped since they were not using anything
from task.h.
global.h was one of the messiest files, it has accumulated tons of
implicit dependencies and declares many globals that make almost all
other file include it. It managed to silence a dependency loop between
server.h and proxy.h by being well placed to pre-define the required
structs, forcing struct proxy and struct server to be forward-declared
in a significant number of files.
It was split in to, one which is the global struct definition and the
few macros and flags, and the rest containing the functions prototypes.
The UNIX_MAX_PATH definition was moved to compat.h.
A few includes were missing in each file. A definition of
struct polled_mask was moved to fd-t.h. The MAX_POLLERS macro was
moved to defaults.h
Stdio used to be silently inherited from whatever path but it's needed
for list_pollers() which takes a FILE* and which can thus not be
forward-declared.
And also rename standard.c to tools.c. The original split between
tools.h and standard.h dates from version 1.3-dev and was mostly an
accident. This patch moves the files back to what they were expected
to be, and takes care of not changing anything else. However this
time tools.h was split between functions and types, because it contains
a small number of commonly used macros and structures (e.g. name_desc)
which in turn cause the massive list of includes of tools.h to conflict
with the callers.
They remain the ugliest files of the whole project and definitely need
to be cleaned and split apart. A few types are defined there only for
functions provided there, and some parts are even OS-specific and should
move somewhere else, such as the symbol resolution code.
The protocol.h files are pretty low in the dependency and (sadly) used
by some files from common/. Almost nothing was changed except lifting a
few comments.
types/freq_ctr.h was moved to haproxy/freq_ctr-t.h and proto/freq_ctr.h
was moved to haproxy/freq_ctr.h. Files were updated accordingly, no other
change was applied.
This one is included almost everywhere and used to rely on a few other
.h that are not needed (unistd, stdlib, standard.h). It could possibly
make sense to split it into multiple parts to distinguish operations
performed on timers and the internal time accounting, but at this point
it does not appear much important.
Half of the users of this include only need the type definitions and
not the manipulation macros nor the inline functions. Moves the various
types into mini-clist-t.h makes the files cleaner. The other one had all
its includes grouped at the top. A few files continued to reference it
without using it and were cleaned.
In addition it was about time that we'd rename that file, it's not
"mini" anymore and contains a bit more than just circular lists.
This one used to be stored into debug.h but the debug tools got larger
and require a lot of other includes, which can't use BUG_ON() anymore
because of this. It does not make sense and instead this macro should
be placed into the lower includes and given its omnipresence, the best
solution is to create a new bug.h with the few surrounding macros needed
to trigger bugs and place assertions anywhere.
Another benefit is that it won't be required to add include <debug.h>
anymore to use BUG_ON, it will automatically be covered by api.h. No
less than 32 occurrences were dropped.
The FSM_PRINTF macro was dropped since not used at all anymore (probably
since 1.6 or so).
