When leaving cfg_parse_log_forward() on error paths, errmsg which is local
to the function could still point to valid data, and it's our
responsibility to free it.
Instead of freeing it everywhere it is invoved, we free it prior to
leaving the function.
This should be backported as far as 2.4.
Multiple error paths were badly handled in cfg_parse_log_forward():
some errors were raised without interrupting the function execution,
resulting in undefined behavior.
Instead of fixing issues separately, let's fix the whole function at once.
This should be backported as far as 2.4.
"missing name for ip-forward section" is generated instead of "missing
name name for log-forward section" in cfg_parse_log_forward().
This may be backported up to 2.4.
In e709e1e ("MEDIUM: logs: buffer targets now rely on new sink_write")
we started using the sink API instead of using the ring_write function
directly.
But as indicated in the commit message, the maxlen parameter of the log
directive now only applies to the message part and not the complete
payload. I don't know what the original intent was (maybe minimizing code
changes) but it seems wrong, because the doc doesn't mention this special
case, and the result is that the ring->buffer output can differ from all
other log output types, making it very confusing.
One last issue with this is that log messages can end up being dropped at
runtime, only for the buffer target, and even if logsrv->maxlen is
correctly set (including default: 1024) because depending on the generated
header size the payload can grow bigger than the accepted sink size (sink
maxlen is not mandatory) and we have no simple way to detect this at
configuration time.
First, we partially revert e709e1e:
TARGET_BUFFER still leverages the proper sink API, but thanks to
"MINOR: sink: pass explicit maxlen parameter to sink_write()" we now
explicitly pass the logsrv->maxlen to the sink_write function in order
to stop writing as soon as either sink->maxlen or logsrv->maxlen is
reached.
This restores pre-e709e1e behavior with the added benefit from using the
high-level API, which includes automatically announcing dropped message
events.
Then, we also need to take the ending '\n' into account: it is not
explicitly set when generating the logline for TARGET_BUFFER, but it will
be forcefully added by the sink_forward_io_handler function from the tcp
handler applet when log messages from the buffer are forwarded to tcp
endpoints.
In current form, because the '\n' is added later in the chain, maxlen is
not being considered anymore, so the final log message could exceed maxlen
by 1 byte, which could make receiving servers unhappy in logging context.
To prevent this, we sacrifice 1 byte from the logsrv->maxlen to ensure
that the final message will never exceed log->maxlen, even if the '\n'
char is automatically appended later by the forwarding applet.
Thanks to this change TCP (over RING/BUFFER) target now behaves like
FD and UDP targets.
This commit depends on:
- "MINOR: sink: pass explicit maxlen parameter to sink_write()"
It may be backported as far as 2.2
[For 2.2 and 2.4 the patch does not apply automatically, the sink_write()
call must be updated by hand]
sink_write() currently relies on sink->maxlen to know when to stop
writing a given payload.
But it could be useful to pass a smaller, explicit value to sink_write()
to stop before the ring maxlen, for instance if the ring is shared between
multiple feeders.
sink_write() now takes an optional maxlen parameter:
if maxlen is > 0, then sink_write will stop writing at maxlen if maxlen
is smaller than ring->maxlen, else only ring->maxlen will be considered.
[for haproxy <= 2.7, patch must be applied by hand: that is:
__sink_write() and sink_write() should be patched to take maxlen into
account and function calls to sink_write() should use 0 as second argument
to keep original behavior]
A regression was introduced with 5464885 ("MEDIUM: log/sink: re-work
and merge of build message API.").
For UDP targets, a final '\n' is systematically inserted, but with the
rework of the build message API, it is inserted after the maxlen
limitation has been enforced, so this can lead to the final message
becoming maxlen+1. For strict syslog servers that only accept up to
maxlen characters, this could be a problem.
To fix the regression, we take the final '\n' into account prior to
building the message, like it was done before the rework of the API.
This should be backported up to 2.4.
A check was missing in parse_logsrv() to make sure that malloc-dependent
variable is checked for non-NULL before using it.
If malloc fails, the function raises an error and stops, like it's already
done at a few other places within the function.
This partially fixes GH #2130.
It should be backported to every stable versions.
This puts an end to the occasional confusion between the "now" date
that is internal, monotonic and not synchronized with the system's
date, and "date" which is the system's date and not necessarily
monotonic. Variable "now" was removed and replaced with a 64-bit
integer "now_ns" which is a counter of nanoseconds. It wraps every
585 years, so if all goes well (i.e. if humanity does not need
haproxy anymore in 500 years), it will just never wrap. This implies
that now_ns is never nul and that the zero value can reliably be used
as "not set yet" for a timestamp if needed. This will also simplify
date checks where it becomes possible again to do "date1<date2".
All occurrences of "tv_to_ns(&now)" were simply replaced by "now_ns".
Due to the intricacies between now, global_now and now_offset, all 3
had to be turned to nanoseconds at once. It's not a problem since all
of them were solely used in 3 functions in clock.c, but they make the
patch look bigger than it really is.
The clock_update_local_date() and clock_update_global_date() functions
are now much simpler as there's no need anymore to perform conversions
nor to round the timeval up or down.
The wrapping continues to happen by presetting the internal offset in
the short future so that the 32-bit now_ms continues to wrap 20 seconds
after boot.
The start_time used to calculate uptime can still be turned to
nanoseconds now. One interrogation concerns global_now_ms which is used
only for the freq counters. It's unclear whether there's more value in
using two variables that need to be synchronized sequentially like today
or to just use global_now_ns divided by 1 million. Both approaches will
work equally well on modern systems, the difference might come from
smaller ones. Better not change anyhting for now.
One benefit of the new approach is that we now have an internal date
with a resolution of the nanosecond and the precision of the microsecond,
which can be useful to extend some measurements given that timestamps
also have this resolution.
Instead we're using ns_to_sec(tv_to_ns(&now)) which allows the tv_sec
part to disappear. At this point, "now" is only used as a timeval in
clock.c where it is updated.
Let's get rid of timeval in storage of internal timestamps so that they
are no longer mistaken for wall clock time. These were exclusively used
subtracted from each other or to/from "now" after being converted to ns,
so this patch removes the tv_to_ns() conversion to use them natively. Two
occurrences of tv_isge() were turned to a regular wrapping subtract.
Instead of operating on {sec, usec} now we convert both operands to
ns then subtract them and convert to ms. This is a first step towards
dropping timeval from these timestamps.
Interestingly, tv_ms_elapsed() and tv_ms_remain() are no longer used at
all and could be removed.
In the syslog applet, when there is no output data, nothing is performed and
the applet leaves by requesting more data. But it is an issue because a
client abort is only handled if it reported with the last bytes of the
message. If the abort occurs after the message was handled, it is ignored.
The session remains opened and inactive until the client timeout is being
triggered. It no such timeout is configured, given that the default maxconn
is 10, all slots can be quickly busy and make the applet unresponsive.
To fix the issue, the best is to always try to read a message when the I/O
handle is called. This way, the abort can be handled. And if there is no
data, we leave as usual.
This patch should fix the issue #2112. It must be backported as far as 2.4.
When the log applet is executed while a shut is pending, the remaining
output data must always be consumed. Otherwise, this can prevent the stream
to exit, leading to a spinning loop on the applet.
It is 2.8-specific. No backport needed.
Just like for other applets, we now use the SE descriptor instead of the
channel to report error and end-of-stream.
Here, the refactoring only reports errors by setting SE_FL_ERROR flag.
In the syslog applet, when a message was not fully received, we must request
for more data by calling appctx_need_more_data() and not by setting
CF_READ_DONTWAIT flag on the request channel. Indeed, this flag is only used
to only try a read at once.
This patch could be backported as far as 2.4. On 2.5 and 2.4,
applet_need_more_data() must be replaced by si_cant_get().
It was done by hand by callers when a shutdown for read or write was
performed. It is now always handled by the functions performing the
shutdown. This way the callers don't take care of it. This will avoid some
bugs.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
In this patch, we introduce CF_READ_EVENT flag as a replacement to
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.
In parse_log_message(), if log is rfc5424 compliant, p pointer
is incremented and size is not. However size is still used in further
checks as if p pointer was not incremented.
This could lead to logic error or buffer overflow if input buf is not
null-terminated.
Fixing this by making sure size is up to date where it is needed.
It could be backported up to 2.4.
syslog_io_handler does specific treatment to handle syslog tcp octet
counting:
Logic was good, but a sneaky mistake prevented
rfc-6587 octet counting from working properly.
trash.area was used as an input buffer.
It does not make sense here since it is uninitialized.
Compilation was unaffected because trash is a thread
local "global" variable.
buf->area should definitely be used instead.
This should be backported as far as 2.4.
When a ring is used as log target, the original facility, if any, must be
preserved. The default facility must only be used if there no facility was
found in the incoming log message.
This patch should fix the issue #1901. It must be backported as far as 2.4.
Patrick Hemmer reported an improper log behavior when using
log-format to escape log data (+E option):
Some bytes were truncated from the output:
- escape_string() function now takes an extra parameter that
allow the caller to specify input string stop pointer in
case the input string is not guaranteed to be zero-terminated.
- Minors checks were added into lf_text_len() to make sure dst
string will not overflow.
- lf_text_len() now makes proper use of escape_string() function.
This should be backported as far as 1.8.
Since commit 2071a99df ("MINOR: listener/ssl: set the SSL xprt layer only
once the whole config is known") the xprt is initialized for ssl directly
from a generic funtion used to parse bind args.
But the 'bind' lines from 'log-forward' sections were forgotten in commit
55f0f7bb5 ("MINOR: config: use the new bind_parse_args_list() to parse a
"bind" line").
This patch re-works 'log-forward' section parsing to use the generic
function to parse bind args and fix the issue.
Since the generic way to parse was introduced in 2.6, this patch
should be backported as far as this version.
The commit 731c8e6cf ("MINOR: stream: Simplify retries counter calculation")
introduced a regression. It broke the dontlog-normal option because the test
on the connection retries counter was not updated accordingly.
This patch should fix the issue #1754. It must be backported to 2.6.
The check struct had a "cs" field renamed to "sc", which also required
a tiny update to a few functions using it to distinguish a check from
a stream (log.c, payload.c, ssl_sample.c, tcp_sample.c, tcpcheck.c,
connection.c).
Function arguments and local variables called "cs" were renamed to "sc".
The presence of one "cs=" in the debugging traces was also turned to
"sc=" for consistency.
There's no more reason for keepin the code and definitions in conn_stream,
let's move all that to stconn. The alphabetical ordering of include files
was adjusted.
This file contains all the stream-connector functions that are specific
to application layers of type stream. So let's name it accordingly so
that it's easier to figure what's located there.
The alphabetical ordering of include files was preserved.
These functions return the app-layer associated with an stconn, which
is a check, a stream or a stream's task. They're used a lot to access
channels, flags and for waking up tasks. Let's just name them
appropriately for the stream connector.
We're starting to propagate the stream connector's new name through the
API. Most call places of these functions that retrieve the channel or its
buffer are in applets. The local variable names are not changed in order
to keep the changes small and reviewable. There were ~92 uses of cs_ic(),
~96 of cs_oc() (due to co_get*() being less factorizable than ci_put*),
and ~5 accesses to the buffer itself.
This renames the "struct conn_stream" to "struct stconn" and updates
the descriptions in all comments (and the rare help descriptions) to
"stream connector" or "connector". This touches a lot of files but
the change is minimal. The local variables were not even renamed, so
there's still a lot of "cs" everywhere.
There's been some great confusion between proto_type, ctrl_type and
sock_type. It turns out that ctrl_type was improperly chosen because
it's not the control layer that is of this or that type, but the
transport layer, and it turns out that the transport layer doesn't
(normally) denaturate the underlying control layer, except for QUIC
which turns dgrams to streams. The fact that the SOCK_{DGRAM|STREAM}
set of values was used added to the confusion.
Let's replace it with xprt_type which reuses the later introduced
PROTO_TYPE_* values, and update the comments to explain which one
works at what level.
This one is the pointer to the conn_stream which is always in the
endpoint that is always present in the appctx, thus it's not needed.
This patch removes it and replaces it with appctx_cs() instead. A
few occurences that were using __cs_strm(appctx->owner) were moved
directly to appctx_strm() which does the equivalent.
This gets rid of most open-coded fcntl() calls, some of which were passed
through DISGUISE() to avoid a useless test. The FD_CLOEXEC was most often
set without preserving previous flags, which could become a problem once
new flags are created. Now this will not happen anymore.
Some older systems may routinely return EWOULDBLOCK for some syscalls
while we tend to check only for EAGAIN nowadays. Modern systems define
EWOULDBLOCK as EAGAIN so that solves it, but on a few older ones (AIX,
VMS etc) both are different, and for portability we'd need to test for
both or we never know if we risk to confuse some status codes with
plain errors.
There were few entries, the most annoying ones are the switch/case
because they require to only add the entry when it differs, but the
other ones are really trivial.
si_shutr(), si_shutw(), si_chk_rcv() and si_chk_snd() are moved in the
conn-stream scope and renamed, respectively, cs_shutr(), cs_shutw(),
cs_chk_rcv(), cs_chk_snd() and manipulate a conn-stream instead of a
stream-interface.
The source and destination addresses at the applicative layer are moved from
the stream-interface to the conn-stream. This simplifies a bit the code and
it is a logicial step to remove the stream-interface.
The conn_retries counter was set to the max value and decremented at each
connection retry. Thus the counter reflected the number of retries left and
not the real number of retries. All calculations of redispatch or reporting
of number of retries experienced were made using subtracts from the
configured retries, which was complicated and didn't bring any benefit.
Now, this counter is set to 0 and incremented at each retry. We know we've
reached the maximum allowed connection retries by comparing it to the
configured value. In all other cases, we directly use the counter.
This patch should address the feature request #1608.
