We'll soon delete unreferenced and duplicated named defaults sections
from the list of proxies. The problem with this is that this list (in
fact a name-based tree) is used to release all of them at the end. Let's
add a list of orphaned defaults sections, typically those containing
"http-check send" statements or various other rules, and that are
implicitly inherited by a proxy hence have a non-zero refcount while
also having a name. These now makes it possible to remove them from
the name index while still keeping their memory around for the lifetime
of the process, and cleaning it at the end.
Support for 429 was recently added to L7 retries (0d142e075 "MINOR: proxy:
Add support of 429-Too-Many-Requests in retry-on status"). But the
l7_status_match() function was not properly updated. The switch statement
must match the 429 status to be able to perform a L7 retry.
This patch must be backported if the commit above is backported. It is
related to #2687.
Move freq-ctr defined in proxy or server structures into their dedicated
fe_counters/be_counters struct.
Functionnaly no change here. This commit will allow to convert rate
stats column to generic one, which is mandatory to manipulate them in
the stats-file.
This commit is part of a serie to align counters usage between
frontends/listeners on one side and backends/servers on the other.
"stot" metric refers to the total number of sessions. On backend side,
it is interpreted as a number of streams. Previously, this was accounted
using <cum_sess> be_counters field for servers, but <cum_conn> instead
for backend proxies.
Adjust this by using <cum_sess> for both proxies and servers. As such,
<cum_conn> field can be removed from be_counters.
Note that several diagnostic messages which reports total frontend and
backend connections were adjusted to use <cum_sess>. However, this is an
outdated and misleading information as it does reports streams count on
backend side. These messages should be fixed in a separate commit.
This should be backported to all stable releases.
4e5e2664 ("MINOR: proxy: add findserver_unique_id() and findserver_unique_name()")
added findserver_unique_id() and findserver_unique_name() functions that
were inspired from the historical findserver() function, so unfortunately
they don't perform well when used on large backend farms because they scan
the whole server list linearly.
I was about to provide a patch to optimize such functions when I stumbled
on Baptiste's work:
19a106d24 ("MINOR: server: server_find functions: id, name, best_match")
It turns out Baptiste already implemented helper functions to supersed
the unoptimized findserver() function (at least at runtime when servers
have been assigned their final IDs and inserted in the lookup trees): they
offer more matching options and rely on eb lookups so they are much more
suitable for fast queries. I don't know how I missed that, but they are a
perfect base for the server rid matching functions.
So in this patch, we essentially revert 4e5e2664 to provide the optimized
equivalent functions named server_find_by_id_unique() and
server_find_by_name_unique(), then we force existing findserver_unique_*()
callers to switch to the new functions.
This patch depends on:
- "OPTIM: server: eb lookup for server_find_by_name()"
This could be backported up to 2.8.
Take the px->server_rules freeing part out of free_proxy() and make it
a dedicated helper function so that it becomes possible to use it from
anywhere.
add proxy_cfg_ensure_no_log() function (similar to
proxy_cfg_ensure_no_http()) to ensure at the end of proxy parsing that
no log exclusive options are found if the proxy is not in log mode.
Simplify stick and store sticktable proxy rules postparsing by adding
a sticking rule entry resolve (postparsing) function.
This will ease code maintenance.
Several CLI handlers use a server argument specified with the format
'<backend>/<server>'. The parsing of this arguement is done in two
steps, first splitting the string with '/' delimiter and then use
get_backend_server() to retrieve the server instance.
Refactor this code sections with the following changes :
* splitting is reimplented using ist API
* get_backend_server() is removed. Instead use the already existing
proxy_be_by_name() then server_find_by_name() which contains
duplicated code with the now removed function.
No functional change occurs with this commit. However, it will be useful
to add new configuration options reusing the same '<backend>/<server>'
for reverse connect.
Adding alternative findserver() functions to be able to perform an
unique match based on name or puid and by leveraging revision id (rid)
to make sure the function won't match with a new server reusing the
same name or puid of the "potentially deleted" server we were initially
looking for.
For example, if you were in the position of finding a server based on
a given name provided to you by a different context:
Since dynamic servers were implemented, between the time the name was
picked and the time you will perform the findserver() call some dynamic
server deletion/additions could've been performed in the mean time.
In such cases, findserver() could return a new server that re-uses the
name of a previously deleted server. Depending on your needs, it could
be perfectly fine, but there are some cases where you want to lookup
the original server that was provided to you (if it still exists).
Add cum_sess_ver[] new array of counters to count the number of cumulated
HTTP sessions by version (h1, h2 or h3).
Implement proxy_inc_fe_cum_sess_ver_ctr() to increment these counter.
This function is called each a HTTP mux is correctly initialized. The QUIC
must before verify the application operations for the mux is for h3 before
calling proxy_inc_fe_cum_sess_ver_ctr().
ST_F_SESS_OTHER stat field for the cumulated of sessions others than
HTTP sessions is deduced from ->cum_sess_ver counter (for all the session,
not only HTTP sessions) from which the HTTP sessions counters are substracted.
Add cum_req[] new array of counters to count the number of cumulated HTTP
requests by version and others than HTTP requests. This new member replace ->cum_req.
Modify proxy_inc_fe_req_ctr() which increments these counters to pass an HTTP
version, 0 special values meaning "other than an HTTP request". This is the case
for instance for syslog.c from which proxy_inc_fe_req_ctr() is called with 0
as version parameter.
ST_F_REQ_TOT stat field compputing for the cumulated number of requests is modified
to count the sum of all the cum_req[] counters.
As this patch is useful for QUIC, it must be backported to 2.7.
This patch is a prerequisite for #1626.
Adding PAUSED state to the list of available proxy states.
The flag is set when the proxy is paused at runtime (pause_listener()).
It is cleared when the proxy is resumed (resume_listener()).
It should be backported to 2.6, 2.5 and 2.4
A proxy may now references the defaults section it is used. To do so, a
pointer on the default proxy was added in the proxy structure. And a
refcount must be used to track proxies using a default proxy. A default
proxy is destroyed iff its refcount is equal to zero and when it drops to
zero.
All this stuff must be performed during init/deinit staged for now. All
unreferenced default proxies are removed after the configuration parsing.
This patch is mandatory to support TCP/HTTP rules in defaults sections.
"f(void)" is the correct and preferred form for a function taking no
argument, while some places use the older "f()". These were reported
by clang's -Wmissing-prototypes, for example:
src/cpuset.c:111:5: warning: no previous prototype for function 'ha_cpuset_size' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
int ha_cpuset_size()
include/haproxy/cpuset.h:42:5: note: this declaration is not a prototype; add 'void' to make it a prototype for a zero-parameter function
int ha_cpuset_size();
^
void
This aggregate patch fixes this for the following functions:
ha_backtrace_to_stderr(), ha_cpuset_size(), ha_panic(), ha_random64(),
ha_thread_dump_all_to_trash(), get_exec_path(), check_config_validity(),
mworker_child_nb(), mworker_cli_proxy_(create|stop)(),
mworker_cleantasks(), mworker_cleanlisteners(), mworker_ext_launch_all(),
mworker_reload(), mworker_(env|proc_list)_to_(proc_list|env)(),
mworker_(un|)block_signals(), proxy_adjust_all_maxconn(),
proxy_destroy_all_defaults(), get_tainted(),
pool_total_(allocated|used)(), thread_isolate(_full|)(),
thread(_sync|)_release(), thread_harmless_till_end(),
thread_cpu_mask_forced(), dequeue_all_listeners(), next_timer_expiry(),
wake_expired_tasks(), process_runnable_tasks(), init_acl(),
init_buffer(), (de|)init_log_buffers(), (de|)init_pollers(),
fork_poller(), pool_destroy_all(), pool_evict_from_local_caches(),
pool_total_failures(), dump_pools_to_trash(), cfg_run_diagnostics(),
tv_init_(process|thread)_date(), __signal_process_queue(),
deinit_signals(), haproxy_unblock_signals()
This patch replaces roughly all occurrences of an HA_ATOMIC_ADD(&foo, 1)
or HA_ATOMIC_SUB(&foo, 1) with the equivalent HA_ATOMIC_INC(&foo) and
HA_ATOMIC_DEC(&foo) respectively. These are 507 changes over 45 files.
Move all liberation code related to a proxy in a dedicated function
free_proxy in proxy.c. For now, this function is only called in
haproxy.c. In the future, it will be used to free the lua proxy.
This helps to clean up haproxy.c.
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.
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.
It is possible to have a session without a listener. It happens for applets
on the client side. Thus all accesses to the listener info from the session
must be guarded. It was the purpose of the commit 36119de18 ("BUG/MEDIUM:
session: NULL dereference possible when accessing the listener"). However,
some tests on the session's listener existence are missing in proxy_inc_*
functions.
This patch should fix the issues #1171, #1172, #1173, #1174 and #1175. It
must be backported with the above commit as far as 1.8.
It's been too short for quite a while now and is now full. It's still
time to extend it to 32-bits since we have room for this without
wasting any space, so we now gained 16 new bits for future flags.
The values were not reassigned just in case there would be a few
hidden u16 or short somewhere in which these flags are placed (as
it used to be the case with stream->pending_events).
The patch is tagged MEDIUM because this required to update the task's
process() prototype to use an int instead of a short, that's quite a
bunch of places.
Now default proxies are stored into a dedicated tree, sorted by name.
Only unnamed entries are not kept upon new section creation. The very
first call to cfg_parse_listen() will automatically allocate a dummy
defaults section which corresponds to the previous static one, since
the code requires to have one at a few places.
The first immediately visible benefit is that it allows to reuse
alloc_new_proxy() to allocate a defaults section instead of doing it by
hand. And the secret goal is to allow to keep multiple named defaults
section in memory to reuse them from various proxies.
Now we'll have a tree of named defaults sections. The regular insertion
and lookup functions take care of the capability in order to select the
appropriate tree. A new function proxy_destroy_defaults() removes a
proxy from this tree and frees it entirely.
This used to be open-coded in cfgparse-listen.c when facing a "defaults"
keyword. Let's move this into proxy_free_defaults(). This code is ugly and
doesn't even reset the just freed pointers. Let's not change this yet.
This code should probably be merged with a generic proxy deinit function
called from deinit(). However there's a catch on uri_auth which cannot be
freed because it might be used by one or several proxies. We definitely
need refcounts there!
This new function takes over the old open-coding that used to be done
for too long in cfg_parse_listen() and it now does everything at once
in a proxy-centric function. The function does all the job of allocating
the structure, initializing it, presetting its defaults from the default
proxy and checking for errors. The code was almost unchanged except for
defproxy being passed as a pointer, and the error message being passed
using memprintf().
This change will be needed to ease reuse of multiple default proxies,
or to create dynamic backends in a distant future.
init_default_instance() was still left in cfgparse.c which is not the
best place to pre-initialize a proxy. Let's place it in proxy.c just
after init_new_proxy(), take this opportunity for renaming it to
proxy_preset_defaults() and taking out init_new_proxy() from it, and
let's pass it the pointer to the default proxy to be initialized instead
of implicitly assuming defproxy. We'll soon be able to exploit this.
Only two call places had to be updated.
Level-7 retries are only possible with a restricted number of HTTP
return codes. While it is usually not safe to retry on 401 and 403, I
came up with an authentication backend which was not synchronizing
authentication of users. While not perfect, being allowed to also retry
on those return codes is really helpful and acts as a hotfix until we
can fix the backend.

There are multiple ways a proxy may switch to the disabled state,
but now it's essentially once it loses its last listener. Instead
of keeping duplicate code around and reporting the state change
before actually seeing it, we now report it at the moment it's
performed (from the last listener leaving) which allows to remove
the message from all other places.
The two functions don't need to be distinguished anymore since they have
all the necessary info to act as needed on their listeners. Let's just
pass via stop_proxy() and make it check for each listener which one to
close or not.
Its sole remaining purpose was to display "proxy foo started", which
has little benefit and pollutes output for those with plenty of proxies.
Let's remove it now.
The VTCs were updated to reflect this, because many of them had explicit
counts of dropped lines to match this message.
This is tagged as MEDIUM because some users may be surprized by the
loss of this quite old message.
Ever since the protocols were added in 1.3.13, listeners used to be
started twice:
- once by start_proxies(), which iteratees over all proxies then all
listeners ;
- once by protocol_bind_all() which iterates over all protocols then
all listeners ;
It's a real mess because error reporting is not even consistent, and
more importantly now that some protocols do not appear in regular
proxies (peers, logs), there is no way to retry their binding should
it fail on the last step.
What this patch does is to make sure that listeners are exclusively
started by protocols. The failure to start a listener now causes the
emission of an error indicating the proxy's name (as it used to be
the case per proxy), and retryable failures are silently ignored
during all but last attempts.
The start_proxies() function was kept solely for setting the proxy's
state to READY and emitting the "Proxy started" message and log that
some have likely got used to seeking in their logs.
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.
extern struct dict server_name_dict was moved from the type file to the
main file. A handful of inlined functions were moved at the bottom of
the file. Call places were updated to use server-t.h when relevant, or
to simply drop the entry when not needed.
This one is particularly difficult to split because it provides all the
functions used to manipulate a proxy state and to retrieve names or IDs
for error reporting, and as such, it was included in 73 files (down to
68 after cleanup). It would deserve a small cleanup though the cut points
are not obvious at the moment given the number of structs involved in
the struct proxy itself.
