This patch add a way to handle HTTP requests streaming using a
callback.
The end of the data must be specified by using the "end" parameter in
httpclient_req_xfer().
httpclient_req_gen() takes a payload argument which can be use to put a
payload in the request. This payload can only fit a request buffer.
This payload can also be specified by the "body" named parameter within
the lua. httpclient.
It is also used within the CLI httpclient when specified as a CLI
payload with "<<".
During httpclient_destroy, add a condition in the BUG_ON which checks
that the client was started before it has ended. A httpclient structure
could have been created without being started.
When using the lua httpclient, haproxy could crash because a b_xfer is
done in httpclient_xfer, which will do a zero-copy swap of the data in
the buffers. The ptr will then be free() by the pool.
However this can't work with a trash buffer, because the area was not
allocated from the pool buffer, so the pool is not suppose to free it
because it does not know this ptr, using -DDEBUG_MEMORY_POOLS will
result with a crash during the free.
Fix the problem by using b_force_xfer() instead of b_xfer which copy
the data instead. The problem still exist with the trash however, and
the trash API must be reworked.
httpclient_stop_and_destroy() tries to destroy the httpclient structure
if the client was stopped.
In the case the client wasn't stopped, it ask the client to stop itself
and to destroy the httpclient structure itself during the release of the
applet.
httpclient_destroy() must free all the ist in the httpclient structure,
the URL in the request, the vsn and reason in the response.
It also must free the list of headers of the response.
ASAN reported a buffer overflow in the httpclient. This overflow is the
consequence of ist0() which is incorrect here.
Replace all occurences of ist0() by istptr() which is more appropried
here since all ist in the httpclient were created from strings.
appctx_new() is exclusively called with tid_bit and it only uses the
mask to pass it to the accompanying task. There is no point requiring
the caller to know about a mask there, nor is there any point in
creating an applet outside of the context of its own thread anyway.
Let's drop this and pass tid_bit to task_new() directly.
In a future patch, it will be possible to remove at runtime every
servers, both static and dynamic. This requires to extend the server
refcount for all instances.
First, refcount manipulation functions have been renamed to better
express the API usage.
* srv_refcount_use -> srv_take
The refcount is always initialize to 1 on the server creation in
new_server. It's also incremented for each check/agent configured on a
server instance.
* free_server -> srv_drop
This decrements the refcount and if null, the server is freed, so code
calling it must not use the server reference after it. As a bonus, this
function now returns the next server instance. This is useful when
calling on the server loop without having to save the next pointer
before each invocation.
In these functions, remove the checks that prevent refcount on
non-dynamic servers. Each reference to "dynamic" in variable/function
naming have been eliminated as well.
THe http_update_update_host function takes an URL and extract the domain
to use as a host header. However it only update an existing host header
and does not create one.
This patch add an empty host header so the function can update it.
Add the raw and ssl server to the proxy list so they can be freed during
the deinit() of HAProxy. As a side effect the 2 servers need to have a
different ID so the SSL one was renamed "<HTTPSCLIENT>".
The httpclient does a free of the servers and proxies it uses, however
since we are including them in the global proxy list, haproxy already
free them during the deinit. We can safely remove these free.
Include the correct .h files in http_client.c and http_client.h.
The api.h is needed in http_client.c and http_client-t.h is now include
directly from http_client.h
Reported by coverity in ticket #1355
CID 1461505: Memory - illegal accesses (UNINIT)
Using uninitialized value "sl".
Fix the problem by initializing sl to NULL.
Proxies must call proxy_preset_defaults() to initialize their settings
that are usually learned from defaults sections (e.g. connection retries,
pool purge delay etc). At the moment there was likely no impact, but not
doing so could cause trouble soon when using the client more extensively
or when new defaults are introduced and failed to be initialized.
No backport is needed.
Change the User-Agent from "HAProxy HTTP client" to "HAProxy" as the
previous name is not valid according to RFC 7231#5.5.3.
This patch fixes issue #1354.
This commit implements an HTTP Client over the CLI, this was made as
working example for the HTTP Client API.
It usable over the CLI by specifying a method and an URL:
echo "httpclient GET http://127.0.0.1:8000/demo.file" | socat /tmp/haproxy.sock -
Only IP addresses are accessibles since the API does not allow to
resolve addresses yet.
This commit implements a very simple HTTP Client API.
A client can be operated by several functions:
- httpclient_new(), httpclient_destroy(): create
and destroy the struct httpclient instance.
- httpclient_req_gen(): generate a complete HTX request using the
the absolute URL, the method and a list of headers. This request
is complete and sets the HTX End of Message flag. This is limited
to small request we don't need a body.
- httpclient_start() fill a sockaddr storage with a IP extracted
from the URL (it cannot resolve an fqdm for now), start the
applet. It also stores the ptr of the caller which could be an
appctx or something else.
- hc->ops contains a list of callbacks used by the
HTTPClient, they should be filled manually after an
httpclient_new():
* res_stline(): the client received a start line, its content
will be stored in hc->res.vsn, hc->res.status, hc->res.reason
* res_headers(): the client received headers, they are stored in
hc->res.hdrs.
* res_payload(): the client received some payload data, they are
stored in the hc->res.buf buffer and could be extracted with the
httpclient_res_xfer() function, which takes a destination buffer
as a parameter
* res_end(): this callback is called once we finished to receive
the response.
Initialize a proxy which contain a server for the raw HTTP, and another
one for the HTTPS. This proxy will use the global server log definition
and the 'option httplog' directive.
This proxy is internal and will only be used for the HTTP Client API.
