Instead of reading and storing a single group and a single mask for a
"thread" directive on a bind line, we now store the complete range in
a thread set that's stored in the bind_conf. The bind_parse_thread()
function now just calls parse_thread_set() to complete the current set,
which starts empty, and thread_resolve_group_mask() was updated to
support retrieving thread group numbers or absolute thread numbers
directly from the pre-filled thread_set, and continue to feed bind_tgroup
and bind_thread. The CLI parsers which were pre-initialized to set the
bind_tgroup to 1 cannot do it anymore as it would prevent one from
restricting the thread set. Instead check_config_validity() now detects
the CLI frontend and passes the info down to thread_resolve_group_mask()
that will automatically use only the group 1's threads for these
listeners. The same is done for the peers listeners for now.
At this step it's already possible to start with all previous valid
configs as well as extended ones supporting comma-delimited thread
sets. In addition the parser already accepts large ranges spanning
multiple groups, but since the underlying listeners infrastructure
is not read, for now we're maintaining a specific check against this
at the higher level of the config validity check.
The patch is a bit large because thread resolution is performed in
multiple steps, so we need to adjust all of them at once to preserve
functional and technical consistency.
The purpose is to be able to store large thread sets, defined by ranges
that may cross group boundaries, as well as define lists of groups and
masks. The thread_set struct implements the storage, and the parser is
in parse_thread_set(), with a focus on "bind" lines, but not only.
This flag is only used to tag a QUIC listener, which we now know by
its bind_conf's xprt as well. It's only used to decide whether or not
to perform an extra initialization step on the listener. Let's drop it
as well as the flags field.
With the various fields and options moved, the listener struct reduced
by 48 bytes total.
All options that made sense were moved to the bind_conf, and remaining
ones were removed. This field isn't used at all anymore. The thr_idx
field was moved there to plug the hole.
LI_O_TCP_L4_RULES and LI_O_TCP_L5_RULES are only set by from the proxy
based on the presence or absence of tcp_req l4/l5 rules. It's basically
as cheap to check the list as it is to check the flag, except that there
is no need to maintain a copy. Let's get rid of them, and this may ease
addition of more dynamic stuff later.
These two flags are entirely for internal use and are even per proxy
in practice since they're used for peers and CLI to indicate (for the
first one) that the listener(s) are not subject to connection limits,
and for the second that the listener(s) should not be stopped on
soft-stop. No need to keep them in the listeners, let's move them to
the bind_conf under names BC_O_UNLIMITED and BC_O_NOSTOP.
These are only set per bind line and used when creating a sessions,
we can move them to the bind_conf under the names BC_O_ACC_PROXY and
BC_O_ACC_CIP respectively.
It's set per bind line ("tfo") and only used in tcp_bind_listener() so
there's no point keeping the address family tests, let's just store the
flag in the bind_conf under the name BC_O_TCP_FO.
This option is set per bind line, and was only set stored when the
address family is AF_INET4 or AF_INET6. That's pointless since it's
used only in tcp_bind_listener() which is only used for such families
as well, so it can now be moved to the bind_conf under the name
BC_O_DEF_ACCEPT.
It's currently declared per-frontend, though it would make sense to
support it per-line but in no case per-listener. Let's move the option
to a bind_conf option BC_O_NOLINGER.
This field is used by stream_new() to optionally set the applet the
stream will connect to for simple proxies like the CLI for example.
But it has never been configurable to anything and is always strictly
equal to the frontend's ->default_target. Let's just drop it and make
stream_new() only use the frontend's. It makes more sense anyway as
we don't want the proxy to work differently based on the "bind" line.
This idea was brought in 1.6 hoping that the h2 implementation would
use applets for decoding (which was dropped after the very first
attempt in 1.8).
The accept callback directly derives from the upper layer, generally
it's session_accept_fd(). As such it's also defined per bind line
so it makes sense to move it there.
The maxconn is set per bind line so let's move it there. This might
possibly even slightly reduce inter-thread contention since this one
is read-mostly and it was stored next to nbconn which changes for
each connection setup or teardown.
Like for previous values, maxaccept is really per-bind_conf, so let's
move it there. Some frontends (peers, log) set it to 1 so the assignment
was slightly moved.
These two arguments were only set and only used with tcpv4/tcpv6. Let's
just store them into the bind_conf instead of duplicating them for all
listeners since they're fixed per "bind" line.
When bind_conf were created, some elements such as the analysers mask
ought to have moved there but that wasn't the case. Now that it's
getting clearer that bind_conf provides all binding parameters and
the listener is essentially a listener on an address, it's starting
to get really confusing to keep such parameters in the listener, so
let's move the mask to the bind_conf. We also take this opportunity
for pre-setting the mask to the frontend's upon initalization. Now
several loops have one less argument to take care of.
The SCID (source connection ID) used by a peer (client or server) is sent into the
long header of a QUIC packet in clear. But it is also sent into the transport
parameters (initial_source_connection_id). As these latter are encrypted into the
packet, one must check that these two pieces of information do not differ
due to a packet header corruption. Furthermore as such a connection is unusuable
it must be killed and must stop as soon as possible processing RX/TX packets.
Implement qc_kill_con() to flag a connection as unusable and to kille it asap
waking up the idle timer task to release the connection.
Add a check to quic_transport_params_store() to detect that the SCIDs do not
match and make it call qc_kill_con().
Add several tests about connection to be killed at several critial locations,
especially in the TLS stack callback to receive CRYPTO data from or derive secrets,
and before preparing packet after having received others.
Must be backported to 2.6 and 2.7.
This is a bad idea to make the TLS ClientHello callback call qc_conn_finalize().
If this latter fails, this would generate a TLS alert and make the connection
send packet whereas it is not functional. But qc_conn_finalize() job was to
install the transport parameters sent by the QUIC listener. This installation
cannot be done at any time. This must be done after having possibly negotiated
the QUIC version and before sending the first Handshake packets. It seems
the better moment to do that in when the Handshake TX secrets are derived. This
has been found inspecting the ngtcp2 code. Calling SSL_set_quic_transport_params()
too late would make the ServerHello to be sent without the transport parameters.
The code for the connection update which was done from qc_conn_finalize() has
been moved to quic_transport_params_store(). So, this update is done as soon as
possible.
Add QUIC_FL_CONN_TX_TP_RECEIVED to flag the connection as having received the
peer transport parameters. Indeed this is required when the ClientHello message
is splitted between packets.
Add QUIC_FL_CONN_FINALIZED to protect the connection from calling qc_conn_finalize()
more than one time. This latter is called only when the connection has received
the transport parameters and after returning from SSL_do_hanshake() which is the
function which trigger the TLS ClientHello callback call.
Remove the calls to qc_conn_finalize() from from the TLS ClientHello callbacks.
Must be backported to 2.6. and 2.7.
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 is a leftover from the implementation's history, but the
quic_rx_packet and quic_tx_packet ref counts were still atomically
updated. It was found in perf top that the cost of the atomic inc
in quic_tx_packet_refinc() alone was responsible for 1% of the CPU
usage at 135 Gbps. Given that packets are only processed on their
assigned thread we don't need that anymore and this can be replaced
with regular non-atomic operations.
Doing this alone has reduced the CPU usage of qc_do_build_pkt()
from 3.6 to 2.5% and increased the overall bit rate by about 1%.
Define a new configuration option "tune.quic.max-frame-loss". This is
used to specify the limit for which a single frame instance can be
detected as lost. If exceeded, the connection is closed.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Add a <loss_count> new field in quic_frame structure. This field is set
to 0 and incremented each time a sent packet is declared lost. If
<loss_count> reached a hard-coded limit, the connection is deemed as
failing and is closed immediately with a CONNECTION_CLOSE using
INTERNAL_ERROR.
By default, limit is set to 10. This should ensure that overall memory
usage is limited if a peer behaves incorrectly.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Define a new function qc_frm_free() to handle frame deallocation. New
BUG_ON() statements ensure that the deallocated frame is not referenced
by other frame. To support this, all LIST_DELETE() have been replaced by
LIST_DEL_INIT(). This should enforce that frame deallocation is robust.
As a complement, qc_frm_unref() has been moved into quic_frame module.
It is justified as this is a utility function related to frame
deallocation. It allows to use it in quic_pktns_tx_pkts_release() before
calling qc_frm_free().
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Define two utility functions for quic_frame allocation :
* qc_frm_alloc() is used to allocate a new frame
* qc_frm_dup() is used to allocate a new frame by duplicating an
existing one
Theses functions are useful to centralize quic_frame initialization.
Note that pool_zalloc() is replaced by a proper pool_alloc() + explicit
initialization code.
This commit will simplify implementation of the per frame retransmission
limitation. Indeed, a new counter will be added in quic_frame structure
which must be initialized to 0.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
A dedicated <fin> field was used in quic_stream structure. However, this
info is already encoded in the frame type field as specified by QUIC
protocol.
In fact, only code for packet reception used the <fin> field. On the
sending side, we only checked for the FIN bit. To align both sides,
remove the <fin> field and only used the FIN bit.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Define a new qcc_app_ops callback named close(). This will be used to
notify app-layer about the closure of a stream by the remote peer. Its
main usage is to ensure that the closure is allowed by the application
protocol specification.
For the moment, close is not implemented by H3 layer. However, this
function will be mandatory to properly reject a STOP_SENDING on the
control stream and preventing a later crash. As such, this commit must
be backported with the next one on 2.6.
This is related to github issue #2006.
proxy http-only options implemented in http_ext were statically stored
within proxy struct.
We're making some changes so that http_ext are now stored in a dynamically
allocated structs.
http_ext related structs are only allocated when needed to save some space
whenever possible, and they are automatically freed upon proxy deletion.
Related PX_O_HTTP{7239,XFF,XOT) option flags were removed because we're now
considering an http_ext option as 'active' if it is allocated (ptr is not NULL)
A few checks (and BUG_ON) were added to make these changes safe because
it adds some (acceptable) complexity to the previous design.
Also, proxy.http was renamed to proxy.http_ext to make things more explicit.
forwarded header option (rfc7239) deals with sample expressions in two
steps: first a sample expression string is extracted from the config file
and later in startup sequence this string is converted into the resulting
sample_expr.
We need to perform these two steps because we cannot compile the expr
too early in the parsing sequence. (or we would miss some context)
Because of this, we have two dinstinct structure members (expr and expr_s)
for each 7239 field supporting sample expressions.
This is not cool, because we're bloating the http forwarded config structure,
and thus, bloating proxy config structure.
To address this, we now merge both expr and expr_s members inside a single
union to regain some space. This forces us to perform some additional logic
to make sure to use the proper structure member at different parsing steps.
Thanks to this, we're also able to free/release related config hints and
sample expression strings as soon as the sample expression
compilation is finished.
Just like forwarded (7239) header and forwardfor header, move parsing,
logic and management of 'originalto' option into http_ext dedicated class.
We're only doing this to standardize proxy http options management.
Existing behavior remains untouched.
Just like forwarded (7239) header, move parsing, logic and management
of 'forwardfor' option into http_ext dedicated class.
We're only doing this to standardize proxy http options management.
Existing behavior remains untouched.
Introducing http_ext class for http extension related work that
doesn't fit into existing http classes.
HTTP extension "forwarded", introduced with 7239 RFC is now supported
by haproxy.
The option supports various modes from simple to complex usages involving
custom sample expressions.
Examples :
# Those servers want the ip address and protocol of the client request
# Resulting header would look like this:
# forwarded: proto=http;for=127.0.0.1
backend www_default
mode http
option forwarded
#equivalent to: option forwarded proto for
# Those servers want the requested host and hashed client ip address
# as well as client source port (you should use seed for xxh32 if ensuring
# ip privacy is a concern)
# Resulting header would look like this:
# forwarded: host="haproxy.org";for="_000000007F2F367E:60138"
backend www_host
mode http
option forwarded host for-expr src,xxh32,hex for_port
# Those servers want custom data in host, for and by parameters
# Resulting header would look like this:
# forwarded: host="host.com";by=_haproxy;for="[::1]:10"
backend www_custom
mode http
option forwarded host-expr str(host.com) by-expr str(_haproxy) for for_port-expr int(10)
# Those servers want random 'for' obfuscated identifiers for request
# tracing purposes while protecting sensitive IP information
# Resulting header would look like this:
# forwarded: for=_000000002B1F4D63
backend www_for_hide
mode http
option forwarded for-expr rand,hex
By default (no argument provided), forwarded option will try to mimic
x-forward-for common setups (source client ip address + source protocol)
The option is not available for frontends.
no option forwarded is supported.

Depends on:
- "MINOR: http_htx: add http_append_header() to append value to header"
- "MINOR: sample: add ARGC_OPT"
- "MINOR: proxy: introduce http only options"
This commit is innoffensive but will allow to do some code refactors in
existing proxy http options. Newly created http related proxy options
will also benefit from this.
Just like http_append_header(), but this time to insert new value before
an existing one.
If the header already contains one or multiple values, ',' is automatically
inserted after the new value.
Calling this function as an alternative to http_replace_header_value()
to append a new value to existing header instead of replacing the whole
header content.
If the header already contains one or multiple values: a ',' is automatically
appended before the new value.
This function is not meant for prepending (providing empty ctx value),
in which case we should consider implementing dedicated prepend
alternative function.
Till now pseudo headers were passed as const strings, but having them as
ISTs will be more convenient for traces. This doesn't change anything for
strings which are derived from them (and being constants they're still
zero-terminated).
TRACE_PRINTF() can be used to produce arbitrary trace contents at any
trace level. It uses the exact same arguments as other TRACE_* macros,
but here they are mandatory since they are followed by the format-string,
though they may be filled with zeroes. The reason for the arguments is to
match tracking or filtering and not pollute other non-inspected objects.
It will probably be used inside loops, in which case there are two points
to be careful about:
- output atomicity is only per-message, so competing threads may see
their messages interleaved. As such, it is recommended that the
caller places a recognizable unique context at the beginning of the
message such as a connection pointer.
- iterating over arrays or lists for all requests could be very
expensive. In order to avoid this it is best to condition the call
via TRACE_ENABLED() with the same arguments, which will return the
same decision.
- messages longer than TRACE_MAX_MSG-1 (1023 by default) will be
truncated.
For example, in order to dump the list of HTTP headers between hpack
and h2:
if (outlen > 0 &&
TRACE_ENABLED(TRACE_LEVEL_DEVELOPER,
H2_EV_RX_FRAME|H2_EV_RX_HDR, h2c->conn, 0, 0, 0)) {
int i;
for (i = 0; list[i].n.len; i++)
TRACE_PRINTF(TRACE_LEVEL_DEVELOPER, H2_EV_RX_FRAME|H2_EV_RX_HDR,
h2c->conn, 0, 0, 0, "h2c=%p hdr[%d]=%s:%s", h2c, i,
list[i].n.ptr, list[i].v.ptr);
}
In addition, a lower-level TRACE_PRINTF_LOC() macro is provided, that takes
two extra arguments, the caller's location and the caller's function name.
This will allow to emit composite traces from central functions on the
behalf of another one.
By default, passing a NULL cb to the trace functions will result in the
source's default one to be used. For some cases we won't want to use any
callback at all, not event the default one. Let's define a trace_no_cb()
function for this, that does absolutely nothing.
Sometimes it would be necessary to prepare some messages, pre-process some
blocks or maybe duplicate some contents before they vanish for the purpose
of tracing them. However we don't want to do that for everything that is
submitted to the traces, it's important to do it only for what will really
be traced.
The __trace() function has all the knowledge for this, to the point of even
checking the lockon pointers. This commit splits the function in two, one
with the trace decision logic, and the other one for the trace production.
The first one is now usable through wrappers such as _trace_enabled() and
TRACE_ENABLED() which will indicate whether traces are going to be produced
for the current source, level, event mask, parameters and tracking.
There are ifdefs at several places to only define TRC_ARGS_QCON when
QUIC is defined, but nothing prevents this code from building without.
Let's just remove those ifdefs, the single "if" they avoid is not worth
the extra maintenance burden.
As specified by HTTP3 RFC, SETTINGS frame should be sent as soon as
possible. Before this patch, this was only done on the first qc_send()
invocation. This delay significantly SETTINGS emission until the first
H3 response is ready to be transferred.
This patch fixes this by ensuring SETTINGS is emitted when MUX-QUIC is
being setup.
As a side point, return value of finalize operation is checked. This
means that an error during SETTINGS emission will cause the connection
init to fail.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
thread_harmless_end() needs to wait for rdv_requests to disappear so
that we're certain to respect a harmless promise that possibly allowed
another thread to proceed under isolation. But this doesn't work in a
signal handler because a thread could be interrupted by the debug
handler while already waiting for isolation and with rdv_request>0.
As such this function could cause a deadlock in such a signal handler.
Let's implement a specific variant for this, thread_harmless_end_sig(),
that just resets the thread's bit and doesn't wait. It must of course
not be used past a check point that would allow the isolation requester
to return and see the thread as temporarily harmless then turning back
on its promise.
This will be needed to fix a race in the debug handler.
A few loops waiting for threads to synchronize such as thread_isolate()
rightfully filter the thread masks via the threads_enabled field that
contains the list of enabled threads. However, it doesn't use an atomic
load on it. Before 2.7, the equivalent variables were marked as volatile
and were always reloaded. In 2.7 they're fields in ha_tgroup_ctx[], and
the risk that the compiler keeps them in a register inside a loop is not
null at all. In practice when ha_thread_relax() calls sched_yield() or
an x86 PAUSE instruction, it could be verified that the variable is
always reloaded. If these are avoided (e.g. architecture providing
neither solution), it's visible in asm code that the variables are not
reloaded. In this case, if a thread exists just between the moment the
two values are read, the loop could spin forever.
This patch adds the required _HA_ATOMIC_LOAD() on the relevant
threads_enabled fields. It must be backported to 2.7.
Slighty adjust b_quic_enc_int(). This function is used to encode an
integer as a QUIC varint in a struct buffer.
A new parameter is added to the function API to specify the width of the
encoded integer. By default, 0 should be use to ensure that the minimum
space is used. Other valid values are 1, 2, 4 or 8. An error is reported
if the width is not large enough.
This new parameter will be useful when buffer space is reserved prior to
encode an unknown integer value. The maximum size of 8 bytes will be
reserved and some data can be put after. When finally encoding the
integer, the width can be requested to be 8 bytes.
With this new parameter, a small refactoring of the function has been
conducted to remove some useless internal variables.
This should be backported up to 2.7. It will be mostly useful to
implement H3 trailers encoding.
This function was introduced in OpenSSL 1.1.0. Prior to that, the
ECDSA_SIG structure was public.
This function was used in commit 5a8f02ae "BUG/MEDIUM: jwt: Properly
process ecdsa signatures (concatenated R and S params)".
This patch needs to be backported up to branch 2.5 alongside commit
5a8f02ae.
Commit 5a8f02ae6 ("BUG/MEDIUM: jwt: Properly process ecdsa signatures
(concatenated R and S params)") makes use of ECDSA_SIG_set0() which only
appeared in openssl-1.1.0 and libressl 2.7, and breaks the build before.
Let's just do what it minimally does (only assigns the two fields to the
destination).
This will need to be backported where the commit above is, likely 2.5.
Add "no-quic" to "global" section to disable the use of QUIC transport protocol
by all configured QUIC listeners. This is listeners with QUIC addresses on their
"bind" lines. Internally, the socket addresses binding is skipped by
protocol_bind_all() for receivers with <proto_quic4> or <proto_quic6> as
protocol (see protocol struct).
Add information about "no-quic" global option to the documentation.
Must be backported to 2.7.
In se_fl_set_error() we used to switch to SE_FL_ERROR only when there
is already SE_FL_EOS indicating that the read side is closed. But that
is not sufficient, we need to consider all cases where no more reads
will be performed on the connection, and as such also include SE_FL_EOI.
Without this, some aborted connections during a transfer sometimes only
stop after the timeout, because the ERR_PENDING is never promoted to
ERROR.
This must be backported to 2.7 and requires previous patch "CLEANUP:
stconn: always use se_fl_set_error() to set the pending error".
When the payload length cannot be determined, the htx extra field is set to
the magical vlaue ULLONG_MAX. It is not obvious. This a dedicated HTX value
is now used. Now, HTX_UNKOWN_PAYLOAD_LENGTH must be used in this case,
instead of ULLONG_MAX.
There is already a function to set termination flags but it is not well
suited for HTTP streams. So a function, dedicated to the HTTP analysis, was
added. This way, this new function will be called for HTTP analysers on
error. And if the error is not caugth at this stage, the generic function
will still be called from process_stream().
Here, by default a PRXCOND error is reported and depending on the stream
state, the reson will be set accordingly:
* If the backend SC is in INI state, SF_FINST_T is reported on tarpit and
SF_FINST_R otherwise.
* SF_FINST_Q is the server connection is queued
* SF_FINST_C in any connection attempt state (REQ/TAR/ASS/CONN/CER/RDY).
Except for applets, a SF_FINST_R is reported.
* Once the server connection is established, SF_FINST_H is reported while
HTTP_MSG_DATA state on the response side.
* SF_FINST_L is reported if the response is in HTTP_MSG_DONE state or
higher and a client error/timeout was reported.
* Otherwise SF_FINST_D is reported.
During multiple tests we've already noticed that shared stats counters
have become a real bottleneck under large thread counts. With QUIC it's
pretty visible, with qc_snd_buf() taking 2.5% of the CPU on a 48-thread
machine at only 25 Gbps, and this CPU is entirely spent in the atomic
increment of the byte count and byte rate. It's also visible in H1/H2
but slightly less since we're working with larger buffers, hence less
frequent updates. These counters are exclusively used to report the
byte count in "show info" and the byte rate in the stats.
Let's move them to the thread_ctx struct and make the stats reader
just collect each thread's stats when requested. That's way more
efficient than competing on a single cache line.
After this, qc_snd_buf has totally disappeared from the perf profile
and tests made in h1 show roughly 1% performance increase on small
objects.
When a STOP_SENDING or RESET_STREAM must be send, its corresponding qcs
is inserted into <qcc.send_list> via qcc_reset_stream() or
qcc_abort_stream_read().
This allows to remove the iteration on full qcs tree in qc_send().
Instead, STOP_SENDING and RESET_STREAM is done in the loop over
<qcc.send_list> as with STREAM frames. This should improve slightly the
performance, most notably when large number of streams are opened.
This must be backported up to 2.7.
Complete qcc_send_stream() function to allow to specify if the stream
should be handled in priority. Internally this will insert the qcs
instance in front of <qcc.send_list> to be able to treat it before other
streams.
This functionality is useful when some QUIC streams should be sent
before others. Most notably, this is used to guarantee that H3 SETTINGS
is done first via the control stream.
This must be backported up to 2.7.
Implement a mechanism to register streams ready to send data in new
STREAM frames. Internally, this is implemented with a new list
<qcc.send_list> which contains qcs instances.
A qcs can be registered safely using the new function qcc_send_stream().
This is done automatically in qc_send_buf() which covers most cases.
Also, application layer is free to use it for internal usage streams.
This is currently the case for H3 control stream with SETTINGS sending.
The main point of this patch is to handle stream sending fairly. This is
in stark contrast with previous code where streams with lower ID were
always prioritized. This could cause other streams to be indefinitely
blocked behind a stream which has a lot of data to transfer. Now,
streams are handled in an order scheduled by se_desc layer.
This commit is the first one of a serie which will bring other
improvments which also relied on the send_list implementation.
This must be backported up to 2.7 when deemed sufficiently stable.
In applets, we stop processing when a write error (CF_WRITE_ERROR) or a shutdown
for writes (CF_SHUTW) is detected. However, any write error leads to an
immediate shutdown for writes. Thus, it is enough to only test if CF_SHUTW is
set.
When a read error (CF_READ_ERROR) is reported, a shutdown for reads is
always performed (CF_SHUTR). Thus, there is no reason to check if
CF_READ_ERROR is set if CF_SHUTR is also checked.
CF_READ_ATTACHED flag is only used in input events for stream analyzers,
CF_MASK_ANALYSER. A read event can be reported instead and this flag can be
removed. We must only take care to report a read event when the client
connection is upgraded from TCP to HTTP.
It appears CF_ANA_TIMEOUT is flag only used in CF_MASK_ANALYSER. All
analyzer timeout relies on the analysis expiration date (chn->analyse_exp).
Worst, once set, this flag is never removed. Thus this flag can be removed
and replaced by a read event (CF_READ_EVENT).
Thanks to previous changes, CF_WRITE_ACTIVITY flags can be removed.
Everywhere it was used, its value is now directly used
(CF_WRITE_EVENT|CF_WRITE_ERROR).

Everywhere it was used, its value is now directly used

Just like CF_READ_PARTIAL, CF_WRITE_PARTIAL is now merged with
CF_WRITE_EVENT. There a subtlety in sc_notify(). The "connect" event
(formely CF_WRITE_NULL) is now detected with
(CF_WRITE_EVENT + sc->state < SC_ST_EST).
CF_READ_PARTIAL flag is now merged with CF_READ_EVENT. It means
CF_READ_EVENT is set when a read0 is received (formely CF_READ_NULL) or when
data are received (formely CF_READ_ACTIVITY).
There is nothing special here, except conditions to wake the stream up in
sc_notify(). Indeed, the test was a bit changed to reflect recent
change. read0 event is now formalized by (CF_READ_EVENT + CF_SHUTR).
As for CF_READ_NULL, it appears CF_WRITE_NULL and other write events on a
channel are mainly used to wake up the stream and may be replace by on write
event.
In this patch, we introduce CF_WRITE_EVENT flag as a replacement to
CF_WRITE_EVENT_NULL. There is no breaking change for now, it is just a
rename. Gradually, other write events will be merged with this one.
CF_READ_NULL flag is not really useful and used. It is a transient event
used to wakeup the stream. As we will see, all read events on a channel may
be resumed to only one and are all used to wake up the stream.

CF_READ_NULL. There is no breaking change for now, it is just a
rename. Gradually, other read events will be merged with this one.
This action increments the General Purpose Counter at the index <idx> of
the array associated to the sticky counter designated by <sc-id> by the
value of either integer <int> or the integer evaluation of expression
<expr>. Integers and expressions are limited to unsigned 32-bit values.
If an error occurs, this action silently fails and the actions evaluation
continues. <idx> is an integer between 0 and 99 and <sc-id> is an integer
between 0 and 2. It also silently fails if the there is no GPC stored at
this index. The entry in the table is refreshed even if the value is zero.
The 'gpc_rate' is automatically adjusted to reflect the average growth
rate of the gpc value.
The main use of this action is to count scores or total volumes (e.g.
estimated danger per source IP reported by the server or a WAF, total
uploaded bytes, etc).
The number of stick-counter entries usable by track-sc rules is currently
set at build time. There is no good value for this since the vast majority
of users don't need any, most need only a few and rare users need more.
Adding more counters for everyone increases memory and CPU usages for no
reason.
This patch moves the per-session and per-stream arrays to a pool of a size
defined at boot time. This way it becomes possible to set the number of
entries at boot time via a new global setting "tune.stick-counters" that
sets the limit for the whole process. When not set, the MAX_SESS_STR_CTR
value still applies, or 3 if not set, as before.
It is also possible to lower the value to 0 to save a bit of memory if
not used at all.
Note that a few low-level sample-fetch functions had to be protected due
to the ability to use sample-fetches in the global section to set some
variables.
There is a bug in b_slow_realign() function when wrapping output data are
copied in the swap buffer. block1 and block2 sizes are inverted. Thus blocks
with a wrong size are copied. It leads to data mixin if the first block is
in reality larger than the second one or to a copy of data outside the
buffer is the first block is smaller than the second one.
The bug was introduced when the buffer API was refactored in 1.9. It was
found by a code review and seems never to have been triggered in almost 5
years. However, we cannot exclude it is responsible of some unresolved bugs.
This patch should fix issue #1978. It must be backported as far as 2.0.
Due to the previous SSL exception we coudln't restrict the collected
CFLAGS/LDFLAGS to those of enabled options, so all of them were
considered if set. The problem is that it would prevent simply
disabling a build option without unsetting its xxx_CFLAGS or _LDFLAGS
values if those had incompatible values (e.g. -lfoo).
Now that only existing options are listed in collect_opts_flags, we
can safely check that the option is set and only consider its settings
in this case. Thus OT_LDFLAGS will not be used if USE_OT is not set
for example.
By creating USE_SSL and enabling it when USE_OPENSSL is set, we can
get rid of the special case that was made with it regarding cflags
collect and when resetting options. The option doesn't need to be
manually set, though in the future it might prove useful if other
non-openssl API are supported.
It's getting complicated to configure includes and lib dirs for
OpenSSL API variants such as WolfSSL, because some settings are
common and others are specific but carry a prefix that doesn't
match the USE_* rule scheme.
This patch simplifies everything by considering that all SSL libs
will use SSL_INC, SSL_LIB, SSL_CFLAGS and SSL_LDFLAGS. That's much
more convenient. This works thanks to the settings collector which
explicitly checks the SSL_* settings. When USE_OPENSSL_WOLFSSL is
set, then USE_OPENSSL is implied, so that there's no need to
duplicate maintenance effort.
The new function collect_opts_flags now scans all USE_* options defined
in use_opts and appends the corresponding *_CFLAGS and *_LDFLAGS to
OPTIONS_{C,LD}FLAGS respectively. This will be useful to get rid of all
the individual concatenations to these variables.
A lot of _SRC, _INC, _LIB etc variables are set and expected to be
initialized to an empty string by default. However, an in-depth
review of all of them showed that WOLFSSL_{INC,LIB}, SSL_{INC,LIB},
LUA_{INC,LIB}, and maybe others were not always initialized and could
sometimes leak from the environment and as such cause strange build
issues when running from cascaded scripts that had exported them.
The approach taken here consists in iterating over all USE_* options
and unsetting any _SRC, _INC, _LIB, _CFLAGS and _LDFLAGS that follows
the same name. For the few variable names options that don't exactly
match the build option (SSL & WOLFSSL), these ones are specifically
added to the list. The few that were explicitly cleared in their own
sections were just removed since not needed anymore. Note that an
"undefine" command appeared in GNU make 3.82 but since we support
older ones we can only initialize the variables to an empty string
here. It's not a problem in practice.
We're now certain that these variables are empty wherever they are
used, and that it is possible to just append to them, or use them
as-is.
Some macros and functions are barely understandable and are only used
to iterate over known options from the use_opts list. Better assign
them a name and move them into a dedicated file to clean the makefile
a little bit. Now at least "use_opts" only appears once, where it is
defined. This also allowed to completely remove the BUILD_FEATURES
macro that caused some confusion until previous commit.
Implement STOP_SENDING. This is divided in two main functions :
* qcc_abort_stream_read() which can be used by application protocol to
request for a STOP_SENDING. This set the flag QC_SF_READ_ABORTED.
* qcs_send_reset() is a static function called after the preceding one.
It will send a STOP_SENDING via qcc_send().
QC_SF_READ_ABORTED flag is now properly used : if activated on a stream
during qcc_recv(), <qcc.app_ops.decode_qcs> callback is skipped. Also,
abort reading on unknown unidirection remote stream is now fully
supported with the emission of a STOP_SENDING as specified by RFC 9000.
This commit is part of implementing H3 errors at the stream level. This
will allows the H3 layer to request the peer to close its endpoint for
an error on a stream.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Implement RESET_STREAM reception by mux-quic. On reception, qcs instance
will be mark as remotely closed and its Rx buffer released. The stream
layer will be flagged on error if still attached.
This commit is part of implementing H3 errors at the stream level.
Indeed, on H3 stream errors, STOP_SENDING + RESET_STREAM should be
emitted. The STOP_SENDING will in turn generate a RESET_STREAM by the
remote peer which will be handled thanks to this patch.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
Implement mux_ops shutw operation for QUIC mux. A RESET_STREAM is
emitted unless the stream is already closed due to all data or
RESET_STREAM already transmitted.
This operation is notably useful when upper stream layer wants to close
the connection early due to an error.
This was tested by using a HTTP server which listens with PROXY protocol
support. The corresponding server line on haproxy configuration
deliberately not specify send-proxy. This causes the server to close
abruptly the connection. Without this patch, nothing was done on the QUIC
stream which was kept open until the whole connection is closed. Now, a
proper RESET_STREAM is emitted to report the error.
This should be backported up to 2.7.
The same change was already performed for the cli. The stats applet and the
prometheus exporter are also concerned. Both use the stats API and rely on
pool functions to get total pool usage in bytes. pool_total_allocated() and
pool_total_used() must return 64 bits unsigned integer to avoid any wrapping
around 4G.
This may be backported to all versions.
This patch contains the main function of the ocsp auto update mechanism
as well as an init and destroy function of the task used for this.
The task is not created in this patch but in a later one.
The function has two distinct parts and the branching to one or the
other is completely based on the fact that the cur_ocsp pointer of the
ssl_ocsp_task_ctx member is set.
If the pointer is not set, we need to look at the first item of the
update tree and see if it needs to be updated. If it does not we simply
wait until the time is right and let the task asleep. If it does need to
be updated, we simply build and send the corresponding ocsp request
thanks to the http_client. The task is then sent to sleep with an expire
time set to infinity. The http_client will wake it back up once the
response is received (or a timeout occurs). Just note that during this
whole process the cetificate_ocsp object corresponding to the entry
being updated is taken out of the update tree and only stored in the
ssl_ocsp_task_ctx context.
Once the task is waken up by the http_client, it branches on the
response processing part of the function which basically checks that the
response is valid and inserts it into the ocsp_response tree. The task
then goes back to sleep until another entry needs to be updated.
The 'ocsp-update' option is parsed at the same time as all the other
bind line options but it does not actually have anything to do with the
bind line since it concerns the frontend certificate instead. For that
reason, we should have a mean to identify inconsistencies in the
configuration and raise an error when a given certificate has two
different ocsp-update modes specified in one or more crt-lists.
The simplest way to do it is to store the ocsp update mode directly in
the ckch and not only in the ssl_bind_conf.
This option will define how the ocsp update mechanism behaves. The
option can either be set to 'on' or 'off' and can only be specified in a
crt-list entry so that we ensure that it concerns a single certificate.
The 'off' mode is the default one and corresponds to the old behavior
(no automatic update).
When the option is set to 'on', we will try to get an ocsp response
whenever an ocsp uri can be found in the frontend's certificate. The
only limitation of this mode is that the certificate's issuer will have
to be known in order for the OCSP certid to be built.
This patch only adds the parsing of the option. The full functionality
will come in a later commit.
The ocsp_response member of the cert_key_and_chain structure is only
used temporarily. During a standard init process where an ocsp response
is provided, this ocsp file is first copied into the ocsp_response
buffer without any ocsp-related parsing (see
ssl_sock_load_ocsp_response_from_file), and then the contents are
actually interpreted and inserted into the actual ocsp tree
(cert_ocsp_tree) later in the process (see ssl_sock_load_ocsp). If the
response was deemed valid, it is then copied into the actual
ocsp_response structure's 'response' field (see
ssl_sock_load_ocsp_response). From this point, the ocsp_response field
of the cert_key_and_chain object could be discarded since actual ocsp
operations will be based of the certificate_ocsp object.
The only remaining runtime use of the ckch's ocsp_response field was in
the CLI, and more precisely in the 'show ssl cert' mechanism.
This constraint could be removed by adding an OCSP_CERTID directly in
the ckch because the buffer was only used to get this id.
This patch then adds the OCSP_CERTID pointer in the ckch, it clears the
ocsp_response buffer early and simplifies the ckch_store_build_certid
function.
This helper function will check that an OCSP response is valid, meaning
that the proper "Content-Type: application/ocsp-response" header is
present and the data itself is a proper OCSP_RESPONSE that can be
checked thanks to the issuer certificate.
The tree that contains OCSP responses is never locked despite being used
at runtime for OCSP stapling as well as the CLI through "set ssl cert"
and "set ssl ocsp-response" commands.
Everything works though because the certificate_ocsp structure is
refcounted and the tree's entries are cleaned up when SSL_CTXs are
destroyed (thanks to an ex_data entry in which the certificate_ocsp
pointer is stored).
This new lock will come to use when the OCSP auto update mechanism is
fully implemented because this new feature will be based on another tree
that stores the same certificate_ocsp members and updates their contents
periodically.
Shards were completely forgotten in commit f5a0c8abf ("MEDIUM: quic:
respect the threads assigned to a bind line"). The thread mask is
taken from the bind_conf, but since shards were introduced in 2.5,
the per-listener mask is held by the receiver and can be smaller
than the bind_conf's mask.
The effect here is that the traffic is not distributed to the
appropriate thread. At first glance it's not dramatic since it remains
one of the threads eligible by the bind_conf, but it still means that
in some contexts such as "shards by-thread", some concurrency may
persist on listeners while they're expected to be alone. One identified
impact is that it requires more rxbufs than necessary, but there may
possibly be other not yet identified side effects.
This must be backported to 2.7 and everywhere the commit above is
backported.
qcs instances for bidirectional streams are inserted in
<qcc.opening_list>. It is removed from the list once a full HTTP request
has been parsed. This is required to implement http-request timeout.
In case a stream is deleted before receiving full HTTP request, it also
must be removed from <qcc.opening_list>. This was not the case on first
implementation but has been fixed by the following patch :
641a65ff3c
BUG/MINOR: mux-quic: remove qcs from opening-list on free
This means that now a stream can be deleted from the list in two
different functions. Sadly, as LIST_DELETE was used in both cases,
nothing prevented a double-deletion from the list, even though
LIST_INLIST was used. Both calls are replaced with LIST_DEL_INIT which
is idempotent.
This bug causes memory corruption which results in most cases in a
segfault, most of times outside of mux-quic code itself. It has been
found first by gabrieltz who reported it on the github issue #1903. Big
thanks to him for his testing.
This bug also causes failures on several 'M' transfer testcase of QUIC
interop-runner. The s2n-quic client is particularly useful in this case
as segfaults triggers were most of the times on the LIST_DELETE
operation itself. This is probably due to its encapsulating of HEADERS
frame with fin bit delayed in a following empty STREAM frame.
This must be backported wherever the above patch is, up to 2.6.
Some uses of swrate_add() only consist in getting a rough estimate of
a frequency. There are cases where speed matters more than accuracy
(e.g. pools). For such use cases, let's just stop looping on the CAS,
if the update fails, another thread is already providing input, and
it's not dramatic to lose the race. All these functions are now
suffixed with "_opportunistic".
Till now it was only possible to change the thread local hot cache size
at build time using CONFIG_HAP_POOL_CACHE_SIZE. But along benchmarks it
was sometimes noticed a huge contention in the lower level memory
allocators indicating that larger caches could be beneficial, especially
on machines with large L2 CPUs.
Given that the checks against this value was no longer on a hot path
anymore, there was no reason for continuing to force it to be tuned at
build time. So this patch allows to set it by tune.memory-hot-size.
It's worth noting that during the boot phase the value remains zero so
that it's possible to know if the value was set or not, which opens the
possibility that we try to automatically adjust it based on the per-cpu
L2 cache size or the use of certain protocols (none of this is done yet).
