The mux-h1 now parses and formats HTTP/1 messages using the HTX
representation. The HTX analyzers have been updated too. For now, only
htx_wait_for_{request/response} and http_{request/response}_forward_body have
been adapted. Others are disabled for now.
Now, the HTTP messages are parsed by the mux on a side and then, after analysis,
formatted on the other side. In the middle, in the stream, there is no more
parsing. Among other things, the version parsing is now handled by the
mux. During the data forwarding, depending the value of the "extra" field, we
are able to know if the body length is known or not and if yes, how many bytes
are still expected.
Now, the connection mode is detected in the mux and not in HTX analyzers
anymore. Keep-alive connections are now managed by the mux. A new stream is
created for each transaction. This removes the most important part of the
synchronization between channels and the HTTP transaction cleanup. These changes
only affect the HTX part (proto_htx.c). Legacy HTTP analyzers remain untouched
for now.
On the client-side, the mux is responsible to create new streams when a new
request starts. It is also responsible to parse and update the "Connection:"
header of the response. On the server-side, the mux is responsible to parse and
update the "Connection:" header of the request. Muxes on each side are
independent. For now, there is no connection pool on the server-side, so it
always close the server connection.
For now, these analyzers are just copies of the legacy HTTP analyzers. But,
during the HTTP refactoring, it will be the main place where it will be
visible. And in legacy analyzers, the macro IS_HTX_STRM is used to know if the
HTX version should be called or not.
Note: the following commits were applied to proto_http.c after this patch
was developed and need to be studied to see if an adaptation to htx
is required :
fd9b68c BUG/MINOR: only mark connections private if NTLM is detected
This file is empty for now. But it will be used to add new versions of the HTTP
analyzers based on the internal representation of HTTP messages (not implemented
yet but called HTX).
