The status (ok, error and timeout) of an TCP or HTTP expect rule are set to
HCHK_STATUS_UNKNOWN by default, when not specified, during the configuration
parsing. This does not change the default status used for a terminal expect rule
(ok=L7OK, err=L7RSP and tout=L7TOUT). But this way, it is possible to know if a
specific status was forced by config or not.
It is now possible to use different matching methods to look for header names in
an HTTP message:
* The exact match. It is the default method. http_find_header() uses this
method. http_find_str_header() is an alias.
* The prefix match. It evals the header names starting by a prefix.
http_find_pfx_header() must be called to use this method.
* The suffix match. It evals the header names ending by a suffix.
http_find_sfx_header() must be called to use this method.
* The substring match. It evals the header names containing a string.
http_find_sub_header() must be called to use this method.
* The regex match. It evals the header names matching a regular expression.
http_match_header() must be called to use this method.
HTPP sample fetches acting on the response can now be called from any sample
expression or log-format string in a tcp-check based ruleset. To avoid any
ambiguities, all these sample fetches are in the check scope, for instance
check.hdr() or check.cook().
SSL sample fetches acting on the server connection can now be called from any
sample expression or log-format string in a tcp-check based ruleset. ssl_bc and
ssl_bc_* sample fetches are concerned.
It is now possible to call be_id, be_name, srv_id and srv_name sample fetches
from any sample expression or log-format string in a tcp-check based ruleset.
It is now possible to call check.payload(), check.payload_lv() and check.len()
sample fetches from any sample expression or log-format string in a tcp-check
based ruleset. In fact, check.payload() was already added. But instead of having
a specific function to handle this sample fetch, we use the same than
req.payload().
These sample fetches act on the check input buffer, containing data received for
the server. So it should be part of or after an expect rule, but before any send
rule. Because the input buffer is cleared at this stage.
Some HTTP sample fetches will be accessible from the context of a http-check
health check. Thus, the prefetch function responsible to return the HTX message
has been update to handle a check, in addition to a channel. Both cannot be used
at the same time. So there is no ambiguity.
A binary sample data can be converted, implicitly or not, to a string by cutting
the buffer on the first null byte.
I guess this patch should be backported to all stable versions.
srv_cleanup_connections() is supposed to be static, so mark it as so.
This patch should be backported where commit 6318d33ce6

After we call SSL_SESSION_get_id(), the length of the id in bytes is
stored in "len", which was never checked. This could cause unexpected
behavior when using the "ssl_fc_session_id" or "ssl_bc_session_id"
fetchers (eg. the result can be an empty value).
The issue was introduced with commit 105599c ("BUG/MEDIUM: ssl: fix
several bad pointer aliases in a few sample fetch functions").
This patch must be backported to 2.1, 2.0, and 1.9.
When only request headers are parsed, the host header should not be compared to
the request authority because no start-line was parsed. Thus there is no
authority.
Till now this bug was hidden because this parsing mode was only used for the
response in the FCGI multiplexer. Since the HTTP checks refactoring, the request
headers may now also be parsed without the start-line.
This patch fixes the issue #610. It must be backported to 2.1.
I've been trying to understand a change of behaviour between v2.2dev5 and
v2.2dev6. Indeed our probe is regularly testing to add and remove
servers on a given backend such as:

Here we indeed would expect to get an anver from server:31256. The issue
is highly linked to the usage of `pool-purge-delay`, with a value which
is higher than the duration of the test, 10s in our case.
a git bisect between dev5 and dev6 seems to show commit
079cb9af22 ("MEDIUM: connections: Revamp the way idle connections are killed")
being the origin of this new behaviour.
So if I understand the later correctly, it seems that it was more a
matter of chance that we did not saw the issue earlier.
My patch proposes to force clean idle connections in the two following
cases:
- we set a (still running) server to maintenance
- we change the ip/port of a server

When a stream is detached from its connection, we try to move the connection in
an idle list to keep it opened, the session one or the server one. But it must
only be done if there is no connection error and if we want to keep it
open. This last statement is true if FCGI_CF_KEEP_CONN flag is set. But the test
is inverted at the stage.
This patch must be backported to 2.1.
fcgi_release() function is responsible to release a FCGI connection. But the
release of the connection itself is missing.
This patch must be backported to 2.1.
When the last stream is detached from a FCGI connection, if the server don't add
the connection in its idle list, the connection is destroyed. Thus it is
important to exist immediately from the detach function. A return statement is
missing here.
This bug was introduced in the commit 2444aa5b6 ("MEDIUM: sessions: Don't be
responsible for connections anymore.").
It is a 2.2-dev bug. No need to backport.
Now we very rarely catch spinning streams, and whenever we catch one it
seems a filter is involved, but we currently report no info about them.
Let's print the list of enabled filters on the stream with such a crash
to help with the reports. A typical output will now look like this:
[ALERT] 121/165908 (1110) : A bogus STREAM [0x7fcaf4016a60] is spinning at 2 calls per second and refuses to die, aborting now!

This may be backported to 2.0.
I changed my mind twice on this one and pushed after the last test with
threads disabled, without re-enabling long long, causing this rightful
build warning.
This needs to be backported if the previous commit ff64d3b027 ("MINOR:
threads: export the POSIX thread ID in panic dumps") is backported as
well.
It is very difficult to map a panic dump against a gdb thread dump
because the thread numbers do not match. However gdb provides the
pthread ID but this one is supposed to be opaque and not to be cast
to a scalar.
This patch provides a fnuction, ha_get_pthread_id() which retrieves
the pthread ID of the indicated thread and casts it to an unsigned
long long so as to lose the least possible amount of information from
it. This is done cleanly using a union to maintain alignment so as
long as these IDs are stored on 1..8 bytes they will be properly
reported. This ID is now presented in the panic dumps so it now
becomes possible to map these threads. When threads are disabled,
zero is returned. For example, this is a panic dump:
Thread 1 is about to kill the process.

We can clearly see that while threads 1 and 2 are the same, gdb's
threads 3 and 4 respectively are haproxy's threads 4 and 3.
This may be backported to 2.0 as it removes some confusion in github issues.
We tried hard to make sure we report threads as not stuck at various
crucial places, but one of them is special, it's the listener_accept()
function. The reason it is special is because it will loop a certain
number of times (default: 64) accepting incoming connections, allocating
resources, dispatching them to other threads or running L4 rules on them,
and while all of this is supposed to be extremely fast, when the machine
slows down or runs low on memory, the expectedly small delays in malloc()
caused by contention with other threads can quickly accumulate and suddenly
become critical to the point of triggering the watchdog. Furthermore, it
is technically possible to trigger this by pure configuration by setting
a huge tune.maxaccept value, which should not be possible.
Given that each operation isn't related to the same task but to a different
one each time, it is appropriate to mark the thread as not stuck each time
it accepts new work that possibly gets dispatched to other threads which
execute it.
This looks like this could be a good reason for the issue reported in
issue #388.
This fix must be backported to 2.0.
Building without threads now shows this warning:
src/ssl_sock.c: In function 'cli_io_handler_commit_cert':
src/ssl_sock.c:12121:24: warning: unused variable 'bind_conf' [-Wunused-variable]
struct bind_conf *bind_conf = ckchi->bind_conf;
^~~~~~~~~
This is because the variable is needed only to unlock the structure, and
the unlock operation does nothing in this case. Let's mark the variable
__maybe_unused for this, but it would be convenient in the long term if
we could make the thread macros pretend they consume the argument so that
this remains less visible outside.
No backport is needed.
Because in HTTP, the host header and the request authority, if any, must be
identical, we keep both synchornized. It means the right flags are set on the
HTX statrt-line calling http_update_host(). There is no header when it happens,
but it is not an issue. Then, if a Host header is inserted,
http_update_authority() is called.
Note that for now, the host header is not automatically added when required.
Connection, content-length and transfer-encoding headers are ignored for
http-check send rules. For now, the keep-alive is not supported and the
"connection: close" header is always added to the request. And the
content-length header is automatically added.
cpu_calls, cpu_ns_avg, cpu_ns_tot, lat_ns_avg and lat_ns_tot depend on the
stream to find the current task and must check for it or they may cause a
crash if misused or used in a log-format string after commit 5f940703b3
("MINOR: log: Don't depends on a stream to process samples in log-format
string").
This must be backported as far as 1.9.
get_http_auth() expects a valid stream but this is not mentioned, though
fortunately it's always called from places which already check this.
smp_prefetch_htx() performs all the required checks and is the key to the
stability of almost all sample fetch functions, so let's make this clearer.
Since commit 5f940703b3 ("MINOR: log: Don't depends on a stream to process
samples in log-format string") it has become quite obvious that a few sample
fetch functions and converters were still heavily dependent on the presence
of a stream without testing for it.
The unique-id sample fetch function, if called without a stream, will result
in a crash.
This fix adds a check for the stream's existence, and should be backported
to all stable versions up to 1.7.

The capture.req.hdr, capture.res.hdr, capture.req.method, capture.req.uri,
capture.req.ver and capture.res.ver sample fetches used to assume the
presence of a stream, which is not necessarily the case (especially after
the commit above) and would crash haproxy if incorrectly used. Let's make
sure they check for this stream.

Mux-h1 currently heavily relies on the presence of an upper stream, even
when waiting for a new request after one is being finished, and it's that
upper stream that's in charge of request and keep-alive timeouts for now.
But since recent commit 493d9dc6ba ("MEDIUM: mux-h1: do not blindly wake
up the tasklet at end of request anymore") that assumption was broken as
the purpose of this change was to avoid initiating processing of a request
when there's no data in the buffer. The side effect is that there's no more
timeout to handle the front connection, resulting in dead front connections
stacking up as clients get kicked off the net.
This fix makes sure we always enable the timeout when there's no stream
attached to the connection. It doesn't do this for back connections since
they may purposely be left idle.
No backport is needed as this bug was introduced in 2.2-dev4.
A bug was introduced in the commit 2edcd4cbd ("BUG/MINOR: checks: Avoid
incompatible cast when a binary string is parsed"). The length of the
destination buffer must be set before call the parse_binary() function.
No backport needed.
It can be sometimes useful to measure total time of a request as seen
from an end user, including TCP/TLS negotiation, server response time
and transfer time. "Tt" currently provides something close to that, but
it also takes client idle time into account, which is problematic for
keep-alive requests as idle time can be very long. "Ta" is also not
sufficient as it hides TCP/TLS negotiationtime. To improve that, introduce
a "Tu" timer, without idle time and everything else. It roughly estimates
time spent time spent from user point of view (without DNS resolution
time), assuming network latency is the same in both directions.
When a tcp-check line is parsed, a warning may be reported if the keyword is
used for a frontend. The return value must be used to report it. But this info
is lost before the end of the function.
Partly fixes issue #600. No backport needed.
When an error is found during the parsing of an expect rule (tcp or http),

The variable s, pointing on the check server, may be null when a connection is
openned. It happens for email alerts. To avoid ambiguities, its use is now more
explicit. Comments have been added at some places and tests on the variable have
been added elsewhere (useless but explicit).
Partly fixes issue #600.
If a message is not fully received from a mysql server, depending on last_read
value, an error must be reported or we must wait for more data. The first if
statement must not check last_read.
Partly fixes issue #600. No backport needed.
The version is partially parsed to set the flag HTX_SL_F_VER_11 on the HTX
message. But exactly 8 chars is expected. So if "HTTP/2" is specified, the flag
is not set. Thus, the version parsing has been updated to handle "HTTP/2" and
"HTTP/2.0" the same way.
For PostgreSQL health check, there is a regex on the backend authentication
packet. It must match to succeed. But it exists 6 types of authentication
packets and the regex only matches the first one (AuthenticationOK). This patch
fixes the regex to match all authentication packets.
No backport needed.
At the end of a tcp-check based health check, if there is still a connection
attached to the check, it must be closed. But it must be done before releasing
the session, because the session may still be referenced by the mux. For
instance, an h2 stream may still have a reference on the session.
No need to backport.
When a new connection is established, if an old connection is still attached to
the current check, it must be detroyed. When it happens, the old conn-stream
must be used to unsubscribe for events, not the new one.
No backport is needed.
The variable 'ret' must only be declared When HAProxy is compiled with the SSL
support (more precisely SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME must be defined).
No backport needed.
Since the tcp-check based heath checks uses the best multuplexer for a
connection, the mux-pt is no longer the only possible choice. So events
subscriptions and unsubscriptions must be done with the mux.
No backport needed.
It is now possible to match on a comma-separated list of status codes or range
of codes. In addtion, instead of a string comparison to match the response's
status code, a integer comparison is performed. Here is an example:
http-check expect status 200,201,300-310
When default parameters are set in a request message, we get the client
connection using the session's origin. But it is not necessarily a
conncection. For instance, for health checks, thanks to recent changes, it may
be a check object. At this step, the client connection may be NULL. Thus, we
must be sure to have a client connection before using it.
This patch must be backported to 2.1.
It is now possible to force the mux protocol for a tcp-check based health check
using the server keyword "check-proto". If set, this parameter overwrites the
server one.
In the same way, a "proto" parameter has been added for tcp-check and http-check
connect rules. If set, this mux protocol overwrites all others for the current
connection.
First, when a server health check is initialized, it inherits the mux protocol
from the server if it is not already specified. Because there is no option to
specify the mux protocol for the checks, it is always inherited from the server
for now.
Then, if the connect rule is configured to use the server options, the mux
protocol of the check is used, if defined. Of course, if a mux protocol is
already defined for the connect rule, it is used in priority. But for now, it is
not possible.
Thus, if a server is configured to use, for instance, the h2 protocol, it is
possible to do the same for the health-checks.
No backport needed.
This reverts commit 1979943c30ef285ed04f07ecf829514de971d9b2.
Captures in comment was only used when a tcp-check expect based on a negative
regex matching failed to eventually report what was captured while it was not
expected. It is a bit far-fetched to be useable IMHO. on-error and on-success
log-format strings are far more usable. For now there is few check sample
fetches (in fact only one...). But it could be really powerful to report info in
logs.
HTTP health-checks now use HTX multiplexers. So it is important to really send
the amount of outgoing data for such checks because the HTX buffers appears
always full.
No backport needed.
Since all tcp-check rulesets are globally stored, it is a problem to use
list. For configuration with many backends, the lookups in list may be costly
and slow downs HAProxy startup. To solve this problem, tcp-check rulesets are
now stored in a tree.
When some data are scheduled to be sent, we must be sure to subscribe for sends
if nothing was sent. Because of a bug, when nothing was sent, connection errors
are checks. If no error is found, we exit, waiting for more data, without any
subcription on send events.
No need to backport.
Instead of accessing directly to the ist fields, the ist API is used instead. To
get its length or its pointer, to release it or to duplicate it. It is more
readable this way.
The patch is not obvious at the first glance. But it is just a reorg. Functions
have been grouped and ordered in a more logical way. Some structures and flags
are now private to the checks module (so moved from the .h to the .c file).
Thanks to previous change, it is now possible to removed all code handling pure
tcp checks. Now every connection based health-checks are handled by the
tcpcheck_main() function. __event_srv_chk_w() and __event_srv_chk_r() have been
removed. And all connection establishment is handled at one place.
Defaut health-checks, without any option, doing only a connection check, are now
based on tcp-checks. An implicit default tcp-check connect rule is used. A
shared tcp-check ruleset, name "*tcp-check" is created to support these checks.
When a tcp-check connect rule is evaluated, the mux protocol corresponding to
the health-check is chosen. So for TCP based health-checks, the mux-pt is
used. For HTTP based health-checks, the mux-h1 is used. The connection is marked
as private to be sure to not ruse regular HTTP connection for
health-checks. Connections reuse will be evaluated later.
The functions evaluating HTTP send rules and expect rules have been updated to
be HTX compliant. The main change for users is that HTTP health-checks are now
stricter on the HTTP message format. While before, the HTTP formatting and
parsing were minimalist, now messages should be well formatted.
Before, the server was used as origin during session creation. It was only used
to get the check associated to the server when a variable is get or set in the
check scope or when a check sample fetch was called. So it seems easier to use
the check as origin of a session. It is also more logical becaues the session is
created by the health-check itself and not its server.
A dedicated function is now used to received data. fundamentally, it should do
the same operations than before. But the way data are received has been reworked
to be closer to the si_cs_recv() function.
First tests before executing the loop on tcp-check rules in tcpcheck_main()
function have been slightly modified to be more explicit and easier to
understand.
HTTP health-checks are now internally based on tcp-checks. Of course all the
configuration parsing of the "http-check" keyword and the httpchk option has
been rewritten. But the main changes is that now, as for tcp-check ruleset, it
is possible to perform several send/expect sequences into the same
health-checks. Thus the connect rule is now also available from HTTP checks, jst
like set-var, unset-var and comment rules.
Because the request defined by the "option httpchk" line is used for the first
request only, it is now possible to set the method, the uri and the version on a
"http-check send" line.
the get_last_tcpcheck_rule() function iters on a rule list in the reverse order
and returns the first non comment and non action-kw rule. If no such rule is
found, NULL is returned.
Instead of having 2 independent integers, used as boolean values, to know if the
expect rule is invered and to know if the matching regexp has captures, we know
use a 32-bits bitfield.
All tcp-check rules are now stored in the globla shared list. The ones created
to parse a specific protocol, for instance redis, are already stored in this
list. Now pure tcp-check rules are also stored in it. The ruleset name is
created using the proxy name and its config file and line. tcp-check rules
declared in a defaults section are also stored this way using "defaults" as
proxy name.
For now, all tcp-check ruleset are stored in a list. But it could be a bit slow
to looks for a specific ruleset with a huge number of backends. So, it could be
a good idea to use a tree instead.
It is now possible to specified the healthcheck status to use on success of a
tcp-check rule, if it is the last evaluated rule. The option "ok-status"
supports "L4OK", "L6OK", "L7OK" and "L7OKC" status.
A shared tcp-check ruleset is now created to support agent checks. The following
sequence is used :
tcp-check send "%[var(check.agent_string)] log-format
tcp-check expect custom
The custom function to evaluate the expect rule does the same that it was done
to handle agent response when a custom check was used.
Parsing of following keywords have been moved in checks.c file : addr, check,
check-send-proxy, check-via-socks4, no-check, no-check-send-proxy, rise, fall,
inter, fastinter, downinter and port.
A share tcp-check ruleset is now created to support SPOP checks. This way no
extra memory is used if several backends use a SPOP check.
The following sequence is used :
tcp-check send-binary SPOP_REQ
tcp-check expect custom min-recv 4
The spop request is the result of the function
spoe_prepare_healthcheck_request() and the expect rule relies on a custom
function calling spoe_handle_healthcheck_response().
A shared tcp-check ruleset is now created to support LDAP check. This way no
extra memory is used if several backends use a LDAP check.
The following sequance is used :
tcp-check send-binary "300C020101600702010304008000"
tcp-check expect rbinary "^30" min-recv 14 \
on-error "Not LDAPv3 protocol"
tcp-check expect custom
The last expect rule relies on a custom function to check the LDAP server reply.
A share tcp-check ruleset is now created to support MySQL checks. This way no
extra memory is used if several backends use a MySQL check.
One for the following sequence is used :
## If no extra params are set
tcp-check connect default linger
tcp-check expect custom ## will test the initial handshake
## If the username is defined
tcp-check connect default linger
tcp-check send-binary MYSQL_REQ log-format
tcp-check expect custom ## will test the initial handshake
tcp-check expect custom ## will test the reply to the client message
The log-format hexa string MYSQL_REQ depends on 2 preset variables, the packet
header containing the packet length and the sequence ID (check.header) and the
username (check.username). If is also different if the "post-41" option is set
or not. Expect rules relies on custom functions to check MySQL server packets.
A shared tcp-check ruleset is now created to support postgres check. This way no
extra memory is used if several backends use a pgsql check.
The following sequence is used :
tcp-check connect default linger
tcp-check send-binary PGSQL_REQ log-format
tcp-check expect !rstring "^E" min-recv 5 \
error-status "L7RSP" on-error "%[check.payload(6,0)]"
tcp-check expect rbinary "^520000000800000000 min-recv "9" \
error-status "L7STS" \
on-success "PostgreSQL server is ok" \
on-error "PostgreSQL unknown error"
The log-format hexa string PGSQL_REQ depends on 2 preset variables, the packet
length (check.plen) and the username (check.username).
A share tcp-check ruleset is now created to support smtp checks. This way no
extra memory is used if several backends use a smtp check.
The following sequence is used :
tcp-check connect default linger
tcp-check expect rstring "^[0-9]{3}[ \r]" min-recv 4 \
error-status "L7RSP" on-error "%[check.payload(),cut_crlf]"
tcp-check expect rstring "^2[0-9]{2}[ \r]" min-recv 4 \
error-status "L7STS" \
on-error %[check.payload(4,0),ltrim(' '),cut_crlf] \
status-code "check.payload(0,3)"
tcp-echeck send "%[var(check.smtp_cmd)]\r\n" log-format
tcp-check expect rstring "^2[0-9]{2}[- \r]" min-recv 4 \
error-status "L7STS" \
on-error %[check.payload(4,0),ltrim(' '),cut_crlf] \
on-success "%[check.payload(4,0),ltrim(' '),cut_crlf]" \
status-code "check.payload(0,3)"
The variable check.smtp_cmd is by default the string "HELO localhost" by may be
customized setting <helo> and <domain> parameters on the option smtpchk
line. Note there is a difference with the old smtp check. The server gretting
message is checked before send the HELO/EHLO comand.
A shared tcp-check ruleset is now created to support ssl-hello check. This way
no extra memory is used if several backends use a ssl-hello check.
The following sequence is used :
tcp-check send-binary SSLV3_CLIENT_HELLO log-format
tcp-check expect rbinary "^1[56]" min-recv 5 \
error-status "L6RSP" tout-status "L6TOUT"
SSLV3_CLIENT_HELLO is a log-format hexa string representing a SSLv3 CLIENT HELLO
packet. It is the same than the one used by the old ssl-hello except the sample
expression "%[date(),htonl,hex]" is used to set the date field.
A share tcp-check ruleset is now created to support redis checks. This way no
extra memory is used if several backends use a redis check.
The following sequence is used :
tcp-check send "*1\r\n$4\r\nPING\r\n"
tcp-check expect string "+PONG\r\n" error-status "L7STS" \
on-error "%[check.payload(),cut_crlf]" on-success "Redis server is ok"
It is now possible to set a custom function to evaluate a tcp-check expect
rule. It is an internal and not documentd option because the right pointer of
function must be set and it is not possible to express it in the
configuration. It will be used to convert some protocol healthchecks to
tcp-checks.
Custom functions must have the following signature:
enum tcpcheck_eval_ret (*custom)(struct check *, struct tcpcheck_rule *, int);
A list of variables is now associated to each tcp-check ruleset. It is more a
less a list of set-var expressions. This list may be filled during the
configuration parsing. The listed variables will then be set during each
execution of the tcp-check healthcheck, at the begining, before execution of the
the first tcp-check rule.
This patch is mandatory to convert all protocol checks to tcp-checks. It is a
way to customize shared tcp-check rulesets.
This option defines a sample expression, evaluated as an integer, to set the
status code (check->code) if a tcp-check healthcheck ends on the corresponding
expect rule.
These options define log-format strings used to produce the info message if a
tcp-check expect rule fails (on-error option) or succeeds (on-success
option). For this last option, it must be the ending rule, otherwise the
parameter is ignored.
It is now possible to extract information from the check input buffer using the
check.payload sample fetch. As req.payload or res.payload, an offset and a
length must be specified.
A new section has been added in the configuration manual. Now check sample
fetches will have to be documented under the section 7.3.7 (Fetching
health-check samples).
When a tcp-check healthcheck fails on a specific rule with no dedicated comment,
we look in previous rules if a comment rule is specified. Now, instead of doing
it during tcp-checks execution, we assign the comment to the corresponding rules
during the configuration parsing. So after HAProxy startup, no more comment
rules remains in a tcp-check ruleset.
It is now possible to specified the healthcheck status to use on error or on
timeout for tcp-check expect rules. First, to define the error status, the
option "error-status" must be used followed by "L4CON", "L6RSP", "L7RSP" or
"L7STS". Then, to define the timeout status, the option "tout-status" must be
used followed by "L4TOUT", "L6TOUT" or "L7TOUT".
These options will be used to convert specific protocol healthchecks (redis,
pgsql...) to tcp-check ones.
x
This converter tranform a integer to its binary representation in the network
byte order. Integer are already automatically converted to binary during sample
expression evaluation. But because samples own 8-bytes integers, the conversion
produces 8 bytes. the htonl converter do the same but for 4-bytes integer.
A global list to tcp-check ruleset can now be used to share common rulesets with
all backends without any duplication. It is mandatory to convert all specific
protocol checks (redis, pgsql...) to tcp-check healthchecks.
To do so, a flag is now attached to each tcp-check ruleset to know if it is a
shared ruleset or not. tcp-check rules defined in a backend are still directly
attached to the proxy and not shared. In addition a second flag is used to know
if the ruleset is inherited from the defaults section.
When a log-format string is parsed, if a sample fetch is found, the flag LW_REQ
is systematically added on the proxy. Unfortunately, this produce a warning
during HAProxy start-up when a log-format string is used for a tcp-check send
rule. Now this flag is only added if the parsed sample fetch depends on HTTP
information.
When a log-format string is evaluated, there is no reason to process sample
fetches only when a stream is defined. Several sample fetches are available
outside the stream scope. All others should handle calls without stream. This
patch is mandatory to support log-format string in tcp-check rules.
An extra parameter for tcp-check send rules can be specified to handle the
string or the hexa string as a log-format one. Using "log-format" option,
instead of considering the data to send as raw data, it is parsed as a
log-format string. Thus it is possible to call sample fetches to customize data
sent to a server. Of course, because we have no stream attached to healthchecks,
not all sample fetches are available. So be careful.
tcp-check set-var(check.port) int(8000)
tcp-check set-var(check.uri) str(/status)
tcp-check connect port var(check.port)
tcp-check send "GET %[check.uri] HTTP/1.0\r\n" log-format
tcp-check send "Host: %[srv_name]\r\n" log-format
tcp-check send "\r\n"
Since we have a session attached to tcp-check healthchecks, It is possible use
sample expression and variables. In addition, it is possible to add tcp-check
set-var rules to define custom variables. So, now, a sample expression can be
used to define the port to use to establish a connection for a tcp-check connect
rule. For instance:
tcp-check set-var(check.port) int(8888)
tcp-check connect port var(check.port)
With this option, it is now possible to use a specific address to open the
connection for a tcp-check connect rule. If the port option is also specified,
it is used in priority.
With this option, it is possible to open a connection from a tcp-check connect
rule using all parameter of the server line, like any other healthcheck. For
now, this parameter is exclusive with all other option for a tcp-check connect
rule.
With this option, it is possible to establish the connection opened by a
tcp-check connect rule using upstream socks4 proxy. Info from the socks4
parameter on the server are used.
Evaluate the registered action_ptr associated with each CHK_ACTION_KW rules from
a ruleset. Currently only the 'set-var' and 'unset-var' are parsed by the
tcp-check parser. Thus it is now possible to set or unset variables. It is
possible to use such rules before the first connect of the ruleset.
Register the custom action rules "set-var" and "unset-var", that will
call the parse_store() command upon parsing.
These rules are thus built and integrated to the tcp-check ruleset, but
have no further effect for the moment.
Add a dedicated vars scope for checks. This scope is considered as part of the
session scope for accounting purposes.
The scope can be addressed by a valid session, even embryonic. The stream is not
necessary.
The scope is initialized after the check session is created. All variables are
then pruned before the session is destroyed.
Create a session for each healthcheck relying on a tcp-check ruleset. When such
check is started, a session is allocated, which will be freed when the check
finishes. A dummy static frontend is used to create these sessions. This will be
useful to support variables and sample expression. This will also be used,
later, by HTTP healthchecks to rely on HTTP muxes.
The loop in tcpcheck_main() function is quite hard to understand. Depending
where we are in the loop, The current_step is the currentely executed rule or
the one to execute on the next call to tcpcheck_main(). When the check result is
reported, we rely on the rule pointed by last_started_step or the one pointed by
current_step. In addition, the loop does not use the common list_for_each_entry
macro and it is thus quite confusing.
So the loop has been totally rewritten and splitted to several functions to
simplify its reading and its understanding. Tcp-check rules are evaluated in
dedicated functions. And a common for_each loop is used and only one rule is
referenced, the current one.
After the configuration parsing, when its validity check, an implicit tcp-check
connect rule is added in front of the tcp-check ruleset if the first non-comment
rule is not a connect one. This implicit rule is flagged to use the default
check parameter.
This means now, all tcp-check rulesets begin with a connect and are never
empty. When tcp-check healthchecks are used, all connections are thus handled by
tcpcheck_main() function.
The keyword 'tcp-check' is now parsed in a dedicated callback function. Thus the
code to parse these rules is now located in checks.c. In addition, a deinit
function have been added to release proxy tcp-check rules, on error or when
HAProxy is stopped.
This patch is based on Gaetan Rivet work. It uses a callback function registerd
on the 'tcp-check' keyword instead, but the spirit is the same.
To allow reusing these blocks without consuming more memory, their list
should be static and share-able accross uses. The head of the list will
be shared as well.
It is thus necessary to extract the head of the rule list from the proxy
itself. Transform it into a pointer instead, that can be easily set to
an external dynamically allocated head.
Parse back-references in comments of tcp-check expect rules. If references are
made, capture groups in the match and replace references to it within the
comment when logging the error. Both text and binary regex can caputre groups
and reference them in the expect rule comment.
[Cf: I slightly updated the patch. exp_replace() function is used instead of a
custom one. And if the trash buffer is too small to contain the comment during
the substitution, the comment is ignored.]
The loop to find the id corresponding to the current rule in
tcpcheck_get_step_id() function has been simplified. And
tcpcheck_get_step_comment() function now only relies on the current rule to find
the rigth comment string. The step id is no longer used. To do so, we iterate
backward from the current step to find the first COMMENT rule immediately
preceedding the expect rule chain.
The rbinary match works similarly to the rstring match type, however the
received data is rewritten as hex-string before the match operation is
done.
This allows using regexes on binary content even with the POSIX regex
engine.
[Cf: I slightly updated the patch. mem2hex function was removed and dump_binary
is used instead.]
On the input buffer, it was mainly done to call regex_exec() function. But
regex_exec2() can be used instead. This way, it is no more required to add the
terminating null byte. For the output buffer, it was only done for debugging
purpose.
Allow declaring tcpcheck connect commands with a new parameter,
"linger". This option will configure the connection to avoid using an
RST segment to close, instead following the four-way termination
handshake. Some servers would otherwise log each healthcheck as
an error.
Some expect rules cannot be satisfied due to inherent ambiguity towards
the received data: in the absence of match, the current behavior is to
be forced to wait either the end of the connection or a buffer full,
whichever comes first. Only then does the matching diagnostic is
considered conclusive. For instance :
tcp-check connect
tcp-check expect !rstring "^error"
tcp-check expect string "valid"
This check will only succeed if the connection is closed by the server before
the check timeout. Otherwise the first expect rule will wait for more data until
"^error" regex matches or the check expires.
Allow the user to explicitly define an amount of data that will be
considered enough to determine the value of the check.
This allows succeeding on negative rstring rules, as previously
in valid condition no match happened, and the matching was repeated
until the end of the connection. This could timeout the check
while no error was happening.
[Cf: I slighly updated the patch. The parameter was renamed and the value is a
signed integer to support -1 as default value to ignore the parameter.]
Reduce copy of parsing portions that is common to all three types of
expect actions.
This reduces the amount of code, helping maintainability and reducing
future change spread.
Functionality is identical.
When receiving additional data while chaining multiple tcp-check expects,
previous inverse expects might have a different result with the new data. They
need to be evaluated again against the new data.
Add a pointer to the first inverse expect rule of the current expect chain
(possibly of length one) to each expect rule. When receiving new data, the
currently evaluated tcp-check rule is set back to this pointed rule.
Fonctionnaly speaking, it is a bug and it exists since the introduction of the
feature. But there is no way for now to hit it because when an expect rule does
not match, we wait for more data, independently on the inverse flag. The only
way to move to the following rule is to be sure no more data will be received.
This patch depends on the commit "MINOR: mini-clist: Add functions to iterate
backward on a list".
[Cf: I slightly updated the patch. First, it only concerns inverse expect
rule. Normal expect rules are not concerned. Then, I removed the BUG tag
because, for now, it is not possible to move to the following rule when the
current one does not match while more data can be received.]
TCP check expect matching strings or binary patterns are able to know
prior to applying their match function whether the available data is
already sufficient to attempt the match or not.
As such, on insufficient data the expect is postponed. This behavior
avoids unnecessary matches when the data could not possibly match.
When chaining expect, upon passing the previous and going onto the next
however, this length check is not done again. Then the match is done and
will necessarily fail, triggering a new wait for more data. The end
result is the same for a slightly higher cost.
Check received data length for all expects in a chain.
This bug exists since the introduction of the feature:
Fixes: 5ecb77f4c7 ("MEDIUM: checks: add send/expect tcp based check")
Version 1.5+ impacted.
The options and directives related to the configuration of checks in a backend
may be defined after the servers declarations. So, initialization of the check
of each server must not be performed during configuration parsing, because some
info may be missing. Instead, it must be done during the configuration validity
check.
Thus, callback functions are registered to be called for each server after the
config validity check, one for the server check and another one for the server
agent-check. In addition deinit callback functions are also registered to
release these checks.
This patch should be backported as far as 1.7. But per-server post_check
callback functions are only supported since the 2.1. And the initcall mechanism
does not exist before the 1.9. Finally, in 1.7, the code is totally
different. So the backport will be harder on older versions.
This options is used to force a non-SSL connection to check a SSL server or to
invert a check-ssl option inherited from the default section. The use_ssl field
in the check structure is used to know if a SSL connection must be used
(use_ssl=1) or not (use_ssl=0). The server configuration is used by default.
The problem is that we cannot distinguish the default case (no specific SSL
check option) and the case of an explicit non-SSL check. In both, use_ssl is set
to 0. So the server configuration is always used. For a SSL server, when
no-check-ssl option is set, the check is still performed using a SSL
configuration.
To fix the bug, instead of a boolean value (0=TCP, 1=SSL), we use a ternary value :
* 0 = use server config
* 1 = force SSL
* -1 = force non-SSL
The same is done for the server parameter. It is not really necessary for
now. But it is a good way to know is the server no-ssl option is set.
In addition, the PR_O_TCPCHK_SSL proxy option is no longer used to set use_ssl
to 1 for a check. Instead the flag is directly tested to prepare or destroy the
server SSL context.
This patch should be backported as far as 1.8.
Error codes ERR_WARN and ERR_ALERT are used to signal that the error
given is of the corresponding level. All errors are displayed as ALERT
in the display_parser_err() function.
Differentiate the display level based on the error code. If both
ERR_WARN and ERR_ALERT are used, ERR_ALERT is given priority.
The 'http-check send' directive have been added to add headers and optionnaly a
payload to the request sent during HTTP healthchecks. The request line may be
customized by the "option httpchk" directive but there was not official way to
add extra headers. An old trick consisted to hide these headers at the end of
the version string, on the "option httpchk" line. And it was impossible to add
an extra payload with an "http-check expect" directive because of the
"Connection: close" header appended to the request (See issue #16 for details).
So to make things official and fully support payload additions, the "http-check
send" directive have been added :
option httpchk POST /status HTTP/1.1
http-check send hdr Content-Type "application/json;charset=UTF-8" \
hdr X-test-1 value1 hdr X-test-2 value2 \
body "{id: 1, field: \"value\"}"
When a payload is defined, the Content-Length header is automatically added. So
chunk-encoded requests are not supported yet. For now, there is no special
validity checks on the extra headers.
This patch is inspired by Kiran Gavali's work. It should fix the issue #16 and
as far as possible, it may be backported, at least as far as 1.8.
Server address and port may change at runtime. So the address and port passed as
arguments and as environment variables when an external check is executed must
be updated. The current number of connections on the server was already updated
before executing the command. So the same mechanism is used for the server
address and port. But in addition, command arguments are also updated.
This patch must be backported to all stable versions. It should fix the
issue #577.
It is the intended behaviour. But because of a bug, the 500 error resulting of a
rewrite failure during http-after-response ruleset evaluation is also
rewritten. So if at this step, if there is also a rewrite error, the session is
closed and no error message is returned.
Instead, we must be sure to not evaluate the http-after-response rules on an
error message if it is was thrown because of a rewrite failure on a previous
error message.
It is a 2.2-dev2+ bug. No need to backport. This patch should fix the issue
pool_gc() causes quite some stress on the memory allocator because
it calls a lot of free() calls while other threads are using malloc().
In addition, pool_gc() needs to take care of possible locking because
it may be called from pool allocators. One way to avoid all this is to
use thread_isolate() to make sure the gc runs alone. By putting less
pressure on the pools and getting rid of the locks, it may even take
less time to complete.
The url_decode() function used by the url_dec converter and a few other
call points is ambiguous on its processing of the '+' character which
itself isn't stable in the spec. This one belongs to the reserved
characters for the query string but not for the path nor the scheme,
in which it must be left as-is. It's only in argument strings that
follow the application/x-www-form-urlencoded encoding that it must be
turned into a space, that is, in query strings and POST arguments.
The problem is that the function is used to process full URLs and
paths in various configs, and to process query strings from the stats
page for example.
This patch updates the function to differentiate the situation where
it's parsing a path and a query string. A new argument indicates if a
query string should be assumed, otherwise it's only assumed after seeing
a question mark.
The various locations in the code making use of this function were
updated to take care of this (most call places were using it to decode
POST arguments).
The url_dec converter is usually called on path or url samples, so it
needs to remain compatible with this and will default to parsing a path
and turning the '+' to a space only after a question mark. However in
situations where it would explicitly be extracted from a POST or a
query string, it now becomes possible to enforce the decoding by passing
a non-null value in argument.
It seems to be what was reported in issue #585. This fix may be
backported to older stable releases.
A typo resulted in '||' being used to concatenate trace flags, which will
only set flag of value '1' there. Noticed by clang 10 and reported in
issue #588.
No backport is needed, this trace was added in 2.2-dev.
When checking www-authenticate headers, we don't want to just accept
"NTLM" as value, because the server may send "HTLM <base64 value>". Instead,
just check that it starts with NTLM.
This should be backported to 2.1, 2.0, 1.9 and 1.8.
