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.
That's already where MAX_PROCS is set, and we already handle the case of
the default value so there is no reason for placing it in thread.h given
that most call places don't need the rest of the threads definitions. The
include was removed from global-t.h and activity.c.
There's no point splitting the file in two since only cfgparse uses the
types defined there. A few call places were updated and cleaned up. All
of them were in C files which register keywords.
There is nothing left in common/ now so this directory must not be used
anymore.
Almost no change except moving the cli_kw struct definition after the
defines. Almost all users had both types&proto included, which is not
surprizing since this code is old and it used to be the norm a decade
ago. These places were cleaned.
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.
This moves types/activity.h to haproxy/activity-t.h and
proto/activity.h to haproxy/activity.h.
The macros defining the bit field values for the profiling variable
were moved to the type file to be more future-proof.
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 splits the hathreads.h file into types+macros and functions. Given
that most users of this file used to include it only to get the definition
of THREAD_LOCAL and MAXTHREADS, the bare minimum was placed into thread-t.h
(i.e. types and macros).
All the thread management was left to haproxy/thread.h. It's worth noting
the drop of the trailing "s" in the name, to remove the permanent confusion
that arises between this one and the system implementation (no "s") and the
makefile's option (no "s").
For consistency, src/hathreads.c was also renamed thread.c.
A number of files were updated to only include thread-t which is the one
they really needed.
Some future improvements are possible like replacing empty inlined
functions with macros for the thread-less case, as building at -O0 disables
inlining and causes these ones to be emitted. But this really is cosmetic.
All files that were including one of the following include files have
been updated to only include haproxy/api.h or haproxy/api-t.h once instead:
- common/config.h
- common/compat.h
- common/compiler.h
- common/defaults.h
- common/initcall.h
- common/tools.h
The choice is simple: if the file only requires type definitions, it includes
api-t.h, otherwise it includes the full api.h.
In addition, in these files, explicit includes for inttypes.h and limits.h
were dropped since these are now covered by api.h and api-t.h.
No other change was performed, given that this patch is large and
affects 201 files. At least one (tools.h) was already freestanding and
didn't get the new one added.
There were 221 places where a status message or an error message were built
to be returned on the CLI. All of them were replaced to use cli_err(),
cli_msg(), cli_dynerr() or cli_dynmsg() depending on what was expected.
This removed a lot of duplicated code because most of the times, 4 lines
are replaced by a single, safer one.
Instead of having to manually turn task profiling on/off in the
configuration, by default it will work in "auto" mode, which
automatically turns on on any thread experiencing sustained loop
latencies over one millisecond averaged over the last 1024 samples.
This may happen with configs using lots of regex (thing map_reg for
example, which is the lazy way to convert Apache's rewrite rules but
must not be abused), and such high latencies affect all the process
and the problem is most often intermittent (e.g. hitting a map which
is only used for certain host names).
Thus now by default, with profiling set to "auto", it remains off all
the time until something bad happens. This also helps better focus on
the issues when looking at the logs as well as in "show sess" output.
It automatically turns off when the average loop latency over the last
1024 calls goes below 990 microseconds (which typically takes a while
when in idle).
This patch could be backported to stable versions after a bit more
exposure, as it definitely improves observability and the ability to
quickly spot the culprit. In this case, previous patch ("MINOR:
activity: make the profiling status per thread and not global") must
also be taken.
In order to later support automatic profiling turn on/off, we need to
have it per-thread. We're keeping the global option to know whether to
turn it or on off, but the profiling status is now set per thread. We're
updating the status in activity_count_runtime() which is called before
entering poll(). The reason is that we'll extend this with run time
measurement when deciding to automatically turn it on or off.
It happens it was only set if present in the configuration. It's
harmless anyway but can still cause doubts when comparing logs and
configurations so better correctly initialize it.
This should be backported to 1.9.
This switches explicit calls to various trivial registration methods for
keywords, muxes or protocols from constructors to INITCALL1 at stage
STG_REGISTER. All these calls have in common to consume a single pointer
and return void. Doing this removes 26 constructors. The following calls
were addressed :
- acl_register_keywords
- bind_register_keywords
- cfg_register_keywords
- cli_register_kw
- flt_register_keywords
- http_req_keywords_register
- http_res_keywords_register
- protocol_register
- register_mux_proto
- sample_register_convs
- sample_register_fetches
- srv_register_keywords
- tcp_req_conn_keywords_register
- tcp_req_cont_keywords_register
- tcp_req_sess_keywords_register
- tcp_res_cont_keywords_register
- flt_register_keywords
This is a new global setting which enables or disables CPU profiling
per task. For now it only sets/resets the variable based on the global
option "profiling.tasks" and supports showing it as well as setting it
from the CLI using "show profiling" and "set profiling". The option will
be used by a future commit. It was done in a way which should ease future
addition of profiling options.
At the moment the situation with activity measurement is quite tricky
because the struct activity is defined in global.h and declared in
haproxy.c, with operations made in time.h and relying on freq_ctr
which are defined in freq_ctr.h which itself includes time.h. It's
barely possible to touch any of these files without breaking all the
circular dependency.
Let's move all this stuff to activity.{c,h} and be done with it. The
measurement of active and stolen time is now done in a dedicated
function called just after tv_before_poll() instead of mixing the two,
which used to be a lazy (but convenient) decision.
No code was changed, stuff was just moved around.
