- MINOR: ssl: add function to extract X509 notBefore date in time_t
- BUILD: acme: need HAVE_ASN1_TIME_TO_TM
- MINOR: acme: move the acme task init in a dedicated function
- MEDIUM: acme: add a basic scheduler
- MINOR: acme: emit a log when the scheduler can't start the task
This patch implements a very basic scheduler for the ACME tasks.
The scheduler is a task which is started from the postparser function
when at least one acme section was configured.
The scheduler will loop over the certificates in the ckchs_tree, and for
each certificate will start an ACME task if the notAfter date is past
curtime + (notAfter - notBefore) / 12, or 7 days if notBefore is not
available.
Once the lookup over all certificates is terminated, the task will sleep
and will wakeup after 12 hours.
acme_start_task() is a dedicated function which starts an acme task
for a specified <store> certificate.
The initialization code was move from the "acme renew" command parser to
this function, in order to be called from a scheduler.
When env variable name or value are not provided for setenv/presetenv it's not
clear from the old error message shown at stderr, what exactly is missed. User
needs to search in it's configuration.
Let's add more explicit error messages about these inconsistencies.
No need to be backported.
In process_table_expire(), limit the number of entries we remove in one
call, and just reschedule the task if there's more to do. Removing
entries require to use the heavily contended update write lock, and we
don't want to hold it for too long.
This helps getting stick tables perform better under heavy load.
Limit the number of old entries we remove in one call of
stktable_trash_oldest(), as we do so while holding the heavily contended
update write lock, so we'd rather not hold it for too long.
This helps getting stick tables perform better under heavy load.
There is a lot of contention trying to add updates to the tree. So
instead of trying to add the updates to the tree right away, just add
them to a mt-list (with one mt-list per thread group, so that the
mt-list does not become the new point of contention that much), and
create a tasklet dedicated to adding updates to the tree, in batchs, to
avoid keeping the update lock for too long.
This helps getting stick tables perform better under heavy load.
In peer_send_msgs(), give up in order to retry later if we failed at
getting the update read lock.
Similarly, in __process_running_peer_sync(), give up and just reschedule
the task if we failed to get the peer lock. There is an heavy contention
on both those locks, so we could spend a lot of time trying to get them.
This helps getting peers perform better under heavy load.
tune.lua.bool-sample-conversion must be set before any lua-load or
lua-load-per-thread is used for it to be considered. Indeed, lua-load
directives are parsed on the fly and will cause some parts of the scripts
to be executed during init already (script body/init contexts).
As such, we cannot afford to have "tune.lua.bool-sample-conversion" set
after some Lua code was loaded, because it would mean that the setting
would be handled differently for Lua's code executed during or after
config parsing.
To avoid ambiguities, the documentation now states that the setting must
be set before any lua-load(-per-thread) directive, and if the setting
is met after some Lua was already loaded, the directive is ignored and
a warning informs about that.
It should fix GH #2957
It may be backported with 29b6d8af16 ("MINOR: hlua: rename
"tune.lua.preserve-smp-bool" to "tune.lua.bool-sample-conversion"")
There's no point reading t->state to check for a tasklet after we've
atomically read the state into the local "state" variable. Not only it's
more expensive, it's also less clear whether that state is supposed to
be atomic or not. And in any case, tasks and tasklets have their type
forever and the one reflected in state is correct and stable.
After recent commit b81c9390f ("MEDIUM: tasks: Mutualize the TASK_KILLED
code between tasks and tasklets"), the task accounting was no longer
correct for killed tasks due to the decrement of tasks in list that was
no longer done, resulting in infinite loops in process_runnable_tasks().
This just illustrates that this code remains complex and should be further
cleaned up. No backport is needed, as this was in 3.2.
quic_conn_release() may, or may not, free the tasklet associated with
the connection. So make it return 1 if it was, and 0 otherwise, so that
if it was called from the tasklet handler itself, the said handler can
act accordingly and return NULL if the tasklet was destroyed.
This should be backported if 9240cd4a27
is backported.
The next request was always leaving the task befor initializing the
httpclient. This patch optimize it by jumping to the next step at the
end of the current one. This way, only the httpclient is doing a
task_wakeup() to handle the response. But transiting from response to
the next request does not leave the task.

Add an extra parametre to conn_create_mux(), "closed_connection".
If a pointer is provided, then let it know if the connection was closed.
Callers have no way to determine that otherwise, and we need to know
that, at least in ssl_sock_io_cb(), as if the connection was closed we
need to return NULL, as the tasklet was free'd, otherwise that can lead
to memory corruption and crashes.
This should be backported if 9240cd4a27
is backported too.
The code to handle a task/tasklet when it's been killed before it were
to run is mostly identical, so move it outside of task and tasklet
specific code, and inside the common code.
This commit is just cosmetic, and should have no impact.
TASK_QUEUED was used to mean "the task has been scheduled to run",
TASK_IN_LIST was used to mean "the tasklet has been scheduled to run",
remove TASK_IN_LIST and just use TASK_QUEUED for tasklets instead.
This commit is just cosmetic, and should not have any impact.
There is some code that should run no matter if the task was killed or
not, and was needlessly duplicated, so only use one instance.
This also fixes a small bug when a tasklet that got killed before it
could run would still count as a tasklet that ran, when it should not,
which just means that we'd run one less useful task before going back to
the poller.
This commit is mostly cosmetic, and should not have any impact.
The code that checks if we're currently running, and waits if so, was
identical between tasks and tasklets, so move it in code common to tasks
and tasklets.
This commit is just cosmetic, and should not have any impact.
Use acme_ctx_destroy() instead of a simple free() upon error in the
"acme renew" error handling.
It's better to use this function to be sure than everything has been
been freed.
Implement a way to display the running acme tasks over the CLI.
It currently only displays a "Running" status with the certificate name
and the acme section from the configuration.
The displayed running tasks are limited to the size of a buffer for now,
it will require a backref list later to be called multiple times to
resume the list.
Default values for hold directive (resolver context) used to be documented
but this was lost when the keyword description was reworked in 24b319b
("Default value is 10s for "valid", 0s for "obsolete" and 30s for
others.")
Restoring the part that describes the default value.
It may be backported to all stable versions with 24b319b
{listener,proxy,server}_get_stats() methods are know to be expensive,
expecially if used under an iteration. Indeed, while automatic yield
is performed every X lua instructions (defaults to 10k), computing an
object's stats 10K times in a single cpu loop is not desirable and
could create contention.
In this patch we leverage hlua_yield_asap() at the end of *_get_stats()
methods in order to force the automatic yield to occur ASAP after the
method returns. Hopefully this should help in similar scenarios as the
one described in GH #2903
When called, this function will try to enforce a yield (if available) as
soon as possible. Indeed, automatic yield is already enforced every X
Lua instructions. However, there may be some cases where we know after
running heavy operation that we should yield already to avoid taking too
much CPU at once.
This is what this function offers, instead of asking the user to manually
yield using "core.yield()" from Lua itself after using an expensive
Lua method offered by haproxy, we can directly enforce the yield without
the need to do it in the Lua script.
The previous commit has implemented a new calcul method for
MAX_STREAM_DATA frame emission. Now, a frame may be emitted as soon as a
buffer was consumed by a QCS instance.
This will probably increase the number of MAX_STREAM_DATA frame
emission. It may even cause a series of frame emitted for the same
stream with increasing values under high load, which is completely
unnecessary.
To improve this, limit the number of MAX_STREAM_DATA frames built to one
per QCS instance. This is implemented by storing a reference to this
frame in QCS structure via a new member <tx.msd_frm>.
Note that to properly reset QCS msd_frm member, emission of flow-control
frames have been changed. Now, each frame is emitted individually. On
one side, it is better as it prevent to emit frames related to different
streams in a single datagram, which is not desirable in case of packet
loss. However, this can also increase sendto() syscall invocation.
Recently, QCS Rx allocation buffer method has been improved. It is now
possible to allocate multiple buffers per QCS instances, which was
necessary to improve HTTP/3 POST throughput.
However, a limitation remained related to the emission of
MAX_STREAM_DATA. These frames are only emitted once at least half of the
receive capacity has been consumed by its QCS instance. This may be too
restrictive when a client need to upload a large payload.
Improve this by adjusting MAX_STREAM_DATA allocation. If QCS capacity is
still limited to 1 or 2 buffers max, the old calcul is still used. This
is necessary when user has limited upload throughput via their
configuration. If QCS capacity is more than 2 buffers, a new frame is
emitted if at least a buffer was consumed.
This patch has reduced number of STREAM_DATA_BLOCKED frames received in
POST tests with some specific clients.
Becaues of a typo, '||' was used instead of '|' to test the SPOP conneciton
flags and decide if the mux is ready or not. The regression was introduced
in the commit fd7ebf117 ("BUG/MEDIUM: mux-spop: Wait end of handshake to
declare a spop connection ready").
This patch must be backported to 3.1 with the commit above.
The newly added SSL traces require an extra 'conn' parameter to
ssl_sock_chose_sni_ctx which was added in the "regular" code but not in
the wolfssl specific one.
Wolfssl also has a different prototype for some getter functions
(SSL_get_servername for instance), which do not expect a const SSL while
openssl version does.
h1_destroy() may be called to release a H1C after a multiplexer upgrade. In
that case, the connection is no longer attached to the H1C. It must not be
used in the h1 trace message because the connection context is no longer a H1C.
Because of this bug, when a H1>H2 upgrade is performed, a crash may be
experienced if the H1 traces are enabled.
This patch must be backport to all stable versions.
When an applicative upgrade of the H1 multiplexer is performed, we must not
pretend the connection was released. Indeed, in that case, a H1 stream is
still their with a stream connector attached on it. It must be detached
first before releasing the H1 connection and the underlying connection. So
it is important to not pretend the connection was already released.
Concretely, in that case h1_process() must return 0 instead of -1. It is
minor error because, AFAIK, it is harmless. But it is not correct. So let's
fix it to avoid futur bugs.
To be clear, this happens when a TCP connection is upgraded to H1 connection
and a H2 preface is detected, leading to a second upgrade from H1 to H2.
This patch may be backport to all stable versions.
In the SPOE specification, when an error occurred on the SPOP connection,
HAProxy must send a DISCONNECT frame and wait for the agent DISCONNECT frame
in return before trully closing the connection.
However, this part was not properly handled by the SPOP multiplexer. In this
case, the SPOP connection should be in the CLOSING state. But this state was
not used at all. Depending on when the error was encountered, the connection
could be closed immediately, without sending any DISCONNECT frame. It was
the case when an early error was detected during the AGENT-HELLO frame
parsing. Or it could be moved from ERROR to FRAME_H state, as if no error
were detected. This case was less dramatic than it seemed because some flags
were also set to prevent any problem. But it was not obvious.
So now, the SPOP connection is properly switch to CLOSING state when an
DISCONNECT is sent to the agent to be able to wait for its DISCONNECT in
reply. spop_process_demux() was updated to parse frames in that state and
some validity checks was added.
This patch must be backport to 3.1.
A SPOP connection must not be considered as ready while the hello handshake
is not finished with success. In addition, no error or shutdown must have
been reported for the underlying connection. Otherwise a freshly openned
spop connexion may be reused while it is in fact dead, leading to a
connection retry.
This patch must be backported to 3.1.
We had to parse the sigAlg extension by hand in order to properly select
the certificate used by the SSL frontends. These traces allow to dump
the allowed sigAlg list sent by the client in its clientHello.
This callback allows to pick the used certificate on an SSL frontend.
The certificate selection is made according to the information sent by
the client in the clientHello. The traces that were added will allow to
better understand what certificate was chosen and why. It will also warn
us if the chosen certificate was the default one.
The actual certificate parsing happens in ssl_sock_chose_sni_ctx. It's
in this function that we actually get the filename of the certificate
used.
If OCSP stapling fails because of a missing or invalid OCSP response we
used to silently disable stapling for the given session. We can now know
a bit more what happened regarding OCSP stapling.
