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.
In proxy_free_defaults(); none of the free() calls was followed by a
pointer reset. Not only it's hard to figure if one of them is duplicated,
but this code started to call other functions which might or might not
rely on such just freed pointers. Let's reset them as they should be to
make sure there will never be any case of use-after-free. The 3 functions
called there were inspected and are all unaffected by this so this remains
safe to do right now.
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!
The proxy initialization code relies on three phases, allocation,
pre-initialization, and assignments from defaults. This last part is
entirely taken from the defaults proxy when arguments are set. This
sensibly complexifies the initialization code as it requires to always
have a default proxy.
This patch instead first applies the original default settings on a
proxy, and then uses those from a default proxy only if one such is
used. This will allow to initialize a proxy out of any default proxy
while still using valid defaults. A careful inspection of the function
showed that only 4 fields used to be set regardless of the default
proxy, and those were moved to init_new_proxy() where they ought to
have been in the first place.
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.

We can currently change the check-port using the cli command `set server
check-port` but there is a consistency issue when using server state.
This patch aims to fix this problem but will be also a good preparation
work to get rid of checkport flag, so we are able to know when checkport
was set by config.
I am fully aware this is not making github #953 moving forward, I
however think this might be acceptable while waiting for a proper
solution and resolve consistency problem faced with port settings.

Instead of switching the stream to HTX mode, the request channel is only
reset (the request buffer is xferred to the mux) and the SF_IGNORE flag is
set on the stream. This flag prevent any processing in case of abort. Once
the upgrade confirmed, the flag is removed, in stream_upgrade_from_cs().
It is only the first part of the fix. The next one ("BUG/MAJOR: mux-h1:
Properly handle TCP to H1 upgrades") is also required. Both rely on the
following series of patches :
* MEDIUM: http-ana: Do nothing in wait-for-request analyzer if not htx
* MINOR: stream: Add a function to validate TCP to H1 upgrades
* MEDIUM: mux-h1: Add ST_READY state for the H1 connections
* MINOR: mux-h1: Wake up instead of subscribe for reads after H1C creation
* MINOR: mux-h1: Try to wake up data layer first before calling its wake callback
* MINOR: stream-int: Take care of EOS in the SI wake callback function
* BUG/MINOR: stream: Don't update counters when TCP to H2 upgrades are performed
This fix is specific for 2.4. No backport needed.
This is from the output of codespell. It's done at once over a bunch
of files and only affects comments, so there is nothing user-visible.
No backport needed.
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.

in the context of a progressive backend migration, we want to be able to
activate SSL on outgoing connections to the server at runtime without
reloading.
This patch adds a `set server ssl` command; in order to allow that:
- add `srv_use_ssl` to `show servers state` command for compatibility,
also update associated parsing
- when using default-server ssl setting, and `no-ssl` on server line,
init SSL ctx without activating it
- when triggering ssl API, de/activate SSL connections as requested
- clean ongoing connections as it is done for addr/port changes, without
checking prior server state
example config:
backend be_foo
default-server ssl
server srv0 127.0.0.1:6011 weight 1 no-ssl
show servers state:
5 be_foo 1 srv0 127.0.0.1 2 0 1 1 15 1 0 4 0 0 0 0 - 6011 - -1
where srv0 can switch to ssl later during the runtime:
set server be_foo/srv0 ssl on
5 be_foo 1 srv0 127.0.0.1 2 0 1 1 15 1 0 4 0 0 0 0 - 6011 - 1

Define a per-thread counters allocated with the greatest size of any
stat module counters. This variable is named trash_counters.
When using a proxy without allocated counters, return the trash counters
from EXTRA_COUNTERS_GET instead of a dangling pointer to prevent
segfault.
This is useful for all the proxies used internally and not
belonging to the global proxy list. As these objects does not appears on
the stat report, it does not matter to use the dummy counters.
For this fix to be functional, the extra counters are explicitly
initialized to NULL on proxy/server/listener init functions.
Most notably, the crash has already been detected with the following
vtc:
- reg-tests/lua/txn_get_priv.vtc
- reg-tests/peers/tls_basic_sync.vtc
- reg-tests/peers/tls_basic_sync_wo_stkt_backend.vtc
There is probably other parts that may be impacted (SPOE for example).
This bug was introduced in the current release and do not need to be
backported. The faulty commits are
"MINOR: ssl: count client hello for stats" and
"MINOR: ssl: add counters for ssl sessions".
This is an anticipation of finer grained locking for the queues. For now
all lock places take a write lock so that there is no difference at all
with previous code.
The proxy stopping mechanism was changed with commit 322b9b94e ("MEDIUM:
proxy: make stop_proxy() now use stop_listener()") so that it's now
entirely driven by the listeners. One thing was forgotten though, which
is that pure backends will not stop anymore since they don't have any
listener, and that it's necessary to stop them in order to stop the
health checks.
No backport is needed.
As discussed here during 2.1-dev, "mode health" is totally obsolete:
https://www.mail-archive.com/haproxy@formilux.org/msg35204.html
It's fundamentally incompatible with usage of SSL, doesn't support
source filtering, and imposes the presence of file descriptors with
hard-coded syscalls directly in the generic accept path.
It's very unlikely that anyone has used it in the last 10 years for
anything beyond testing. In the worst case if anyone would depend
on it, replacing it with "http-request return status 200" and "mode
http" would certainly do the trick.
The keyword is still detected as special by the config parser to help
users update their configurations appropriately.
One difficulty in soft-stopping is to make sure not to forget unlisted
listeners. By first doing a pass using protocol_stop_now() we catch the
vast majority of them. The few remaining ones are the ones belonging to
a proxy having a grace period. For these ones, the proxy will arm its
stop_time timer and emit a log message.
Since neither UDP listeners nor peers use the grace period, we can already
get rid of the special cases there since we know they will have been stopped
by the protocols.
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.
We have to count unstoppable jobs which correspond to worker sockpairs, in
order to know when to count. However the way it's currently done is quite
awkward because these are counted when stopping making the stop mechanism
non-idempotent. This is definitely something we want to fix before stopping
by protocol or our listeners count will quickly go wrong. Now they are
counted when the listeners are created.
Till now, we used to call pause_proxy()/resume_proxy() to enable/disable
processing on a proxy, which is used during soft reloads. But since we want
to drive this process from the listeners themselves, we have to instead
proceed the other way around so that when we enable/disable a listener,
it checks if it changed anything for the proxy and notifies about updates
at this level.
The detection is made using li_ready=0 for pause(), and li_paused=0
for resume(). Note that we must not include any test for li_bound because
this state is seen by processes which share the listener with another one
and which must not act on it since the other process will do it. As such
the socket behind the FD will automatically be paused and resume without
its local state changing, but this is the limit of a multi-process system
with shared listeners.
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.
The remaining proxy states were only used to distinguish an enabled
proxy from a disabled one. Due to the initialization order, both
PR_STNEW and PR_STREADY were equivalent after startup, and they
would only differ from PR_STSTOPPED when the proxy is disabled or
shutdown (which is effectively another way to disable it).
Now we just have a "disabled" field which allows to distinguish them.
It's becoming obvious that start_proxies() is only used to print a
greeting message now, that we'd rather get rid of. Probably that
zombify_proxy() and stop_proxy() should be merged once their
differences move to the right place.
This state was used to mention that a proxy was in PAUSED state, as opposed
to the READY state. This was causing some trouble because if a listener
failed to resume (e.g. because its port was temporarily in use during the
resume), it was not possible to retry the operation later. Now by checking
the number of READY or PAUSED listeners instead, we can accurately know if
something went bad and try to fix it again later. The case of the temporary
port conflict during resume now works well:
$ socat readline /tmp/sock1
prompt
> disable frontend testme3
> disable frontend testme3
All sockets are already disabled.
> enable frontend testme3
Failed to resume frontend, check logs for precise cause (port conflict?).
> enable frontend testme3
> enable frontend testme3
All sockets are already enabled.
This state is only set when a pause() fails but isn't even set when a
resume() fails. And we cannot recover from this state. Instead, let's
just count remaining ready listeners to decide to emit an error or not.
It's more accurate and will better support new attempts if needed.
Since v1.4 or so, it's almost not possible anymore to set this state. The
only exception is by using the CLI to change a frontend's maxconn setting
below its current usage. This case makes no sense, and for other cases it
doesn't make sense either because "full" is a vague concept when only
certain listeners are full and not all. Let's just remove this unused
state and make it clear that it's not reported. The "ready" or "open"
states will continue to be reported without being misleading as they
will be opposed to "stop".
This thing was needed for an optimization used in soft_stop() which
doesn't exist anymore, so let's remove it as it's cryptic and hinders
the listeners cleanup.
The loop doesn't match anymore since the non-started listeners are in
LI_INIT and even if it had ever worked the benefit of closing zombies
at this point looks void at best.
The zombie state is not used anymore by the listeners, because in the
last two cases where it was tested it couldn't match as it was covered
by the test on the process mask. Instead now the FD is either in the
LISTEN state or the INIT state. This also avoids forcing the listener
to be single-dimensional because actually belonging to another process
isn't totally exclusive with the other states, which explains some of
the difficulties requiring to check the proc_mask and the fd sometimes.
So let's get rid of it now not to be tempted to reuse it.
The doc on the listeners state was updated.
Old processes didn't die if a log foward section is declared and
a soft stop is requested.
This patch fix this issue and should be backpored in banches including
the log forward feature.
The code dealing with zombie proxies in soft_stop() is bogus, it uses
close() instead of fd_delete(), leaving a live entry in the fdtab with
a dangling pointer to a free memory location. The FD might be reassigned
for an outgoing connection for the time it takes the proxy to completely
stop, or could be dumped on the CLI's "show fd" command. In addition,
the listener's FD was not even reset, leaving doubts about whether or
not it will happen again in deinit().
And in deinit(), the loop in charge of closing zombie FDs is particularly
unsafe because it closes the fd then calls unbind_listener() then
delete_listener() hoping none of them will touch it again. Since it
requires some mental efforts to figure what's done there, let's correctly
reset the fd here as well and close it using fd_delete() to eliminate any
remaining doubts.
It's uncertain whether this should be backported. Zombie proxies are rare
and the situations capable of triggering such issues are not trivial to
setup. However it's easy to imagine how things could go wrong if backported
too far. Better wait for any matching report if at all (this code has been
there since 1.8 without anobody noticing).
It's the receiver's FD that's inherited from the parent process, not
the listener's so the flag must move to the receiver so that appropriate
actions can be taken.
The listening socket is represented by its file descriptor, which is
generic to all receivers and not just listeners, so it must move to
the rx struct.
It's worth noting that in order to extend receivers and listeners to
other protocols such as QUIC, we'll need other handles than file
descriptors here, and that either a union or a cast to uintptr_t
will have to be used. This was not done yet and the field was
preserved under the name "fd" to avoid adding confusion.
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.
Previous commit b24bc0d ("MINOR: tcp: Support TCP keepalive parameters
customization") broke non-Linux builds as TCP_KEEP{CNT,IDLE,INTVL} are
not necessarily defined elsewhere.
This patch adds the required #ifdefs to condition the visibility of the
keywords, and adds a mention in the doc about their dependency on Linux.
It is now possible to customize TCP keepalive parameters.
These correspond to the socket options TCP_KEEPCNT, TCP_KEEPIDLE, TCP_KEEPINTVL
and are valid for the defaults, listen, frontend and backend sections.
This patch fixes GitHub issue #670.
Commit 69f591e3b ("MINOR: cli/proxy: add a new "show servers conn" command")
added the ability to dump the idle connections state for a server, but we
must not do this if idle connections were not allocated, which happens if
the server is configured with pool-max-conn 0.
This is 2.2, no backport is needed.
This command reuses the existing "show servers state" to also dump the
state of active and idle connections. The main use is to serve as a
debugging tool to troubleshot connection reuse issues.
Actually the cleanup in commit 6ff8143f7 ("BUG/MINOR: proxy: fix
dump_server_state()'s misuse of the trash") allowed to spot that the
trash is never reset when dumping a servers state. I couldn't manage
to make it dump garbage even with large setups but didn't find either
where it's cleared between successive calls while other handlers do
explicitly invoke chunk_reset(), so it seems to happen a bit by luck.
Let's use chunk_printf() here for each turn, it makes things clearer.
This could be backported along with previous patch, especially if any
user reports occasional garbage appearing in the show servers output.
dump_server_state() claims to dump into a buffer but instead it writes
into a buffer then dumps the trash into the channel, so it only supports
being called with buf=&trash and doesn't need this buffer. There doesn't
seem to be any current impact of this mistake since the function is called
from one location only.
A backport may be performed if it helps fixing other bugs but it will not
fix an existing bug by itself.
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.
There's no point splitting the file in two since only cfgparse uses the
types defined there. A few call places were updated and cleaned up. All
of them were in C files which register keywords.
There is nothing left in common/ now so this directory must not be used
anymore.
This one was not easy because it was embarking many includes with it,
which other files would automatically find. At least global.h, arg.h
and tools.h were identified. 93 total locations were identified, 8
additional includes had to be added.
In the rare files where it was possible to finalize the sorting of
includes by adjusting only one or two extra lines, it was done. But
all files would need to be rechecked and cleaned up now.
It was the last set of files in types/ and proto/ and these directories
must not be reused anymore.
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.
The files remained mostly unchanged since they were OK. However, half of
the users didn't need to include them, and about as many actually needed
to have it and used to find functions like srv_currently_usable() through
a long chain that broke when moving the file.
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.
The current state of the logging is a real mess. The main problem is
that almost all files include log.h just in order to have access to
the alert/warning functions like ha_alert() etc, and don't care about
logs. But log.h also deals with real logging as well as log-format and
depends on stream.h and various other things. As such it forces a few
heavy files like stream.h to be loaded early and to hide missing
dependencies depending where it's loaded. Among the missing ones is
syslog.h which was often automatically included resulting in no less
than 3 users missing it.
Among 76 users, only 5 could be removed, and probably 70 don't need the
full set of dependencies.
A good approach would consist in splitting that file in 3 parts:
- one for error output ("errors" ?).
- one for log_format processing
- and one for actual logging.
It was moved without any change, however many callers didn't need it at
all. This was a consequence of the split of proto_http.c into several
parts that resulted in many locations to still reference it.
Almost no change except moving the cli_kw struct definition after the
defines. Almost all users had both types&proto included, which is not
surprizing since this code is old and it used to be the norm a decade
ago. These places were cleaned.
Just some minor reordering, and the usual cleanup of call places for
those which didn't need it. We don't include the whole tools.h into
stats-t anymore but just tools-t.h.
The type file was slightly tidied. The cli-specific APPCTX_CLI_ST1_* flag
definitions were moved to cli.h. The type file was adjusted to include
buf-t.h and not the huge buf.h. A few call places were fixed because they
did not need this include.
The cfg_peers external declaration was moved to the main file instead
of the type one. A few types were still missing from the proto, causing
warnings in the functions prototypes (proxy, stick_table).
The TASK_IS_TASKLET() macro was moved to the proto file instead of the
type one. The proto part was a bit reordered to remove a number of ugly
forward declaration of static inline functions. About a tens of C and H
files had their dependency dropped since they were not using anything
from task.h.
global.h was one of the messiest files, it has accumulated tons of
implicit dependencies and declares many globals that make almost all
other file include it. It managed to silence a dependency loop between
server.h and proxy.h by being well placed to pre-define the required
structs, forcing struct proxy and struct server to be forward-declared
in a significant number of files.
It was split in to, one which is the global struct definition and the
few macros and flags, and the rest containing the functions prototypes.
The UNIX_MAX_PATH definition was moved to compat.h.
A few includes were missing in each file. A definition of
struct polled_mask was moved to fd-t.h. The MAX_POLLERS macro was
moved to defaults.h
Stdio used to be silently inherited from whatever path but it's needed
for list_pollers() which takes a FILE* and which can thus not be
forward-declared.
Now the file is ready to be stored into its final destination. A few
minor reorderings were performed to keep the file properly organized,
making the various sections more visible (cache & lockless).
In addition and to stay consistent, memory.c was renamed to pool.c.
This one is included almost everywhere and used to rely on a few other
.h that are not needed (unistd, stdlib, standard.h). It could possibly
make sense to split it into multiple parts to distinguish operations
performed on timers and the internal time accounting, but at this point
it does not appear much important.
All files that were including one of the following include files have
been updated to only include haproxy/api.h or haproxy/api-t.h once instead:
- common/config.h
- common/compat.h
- common/compiler.h
- common/defaults.h
- common/initcall.h
- common/tools.h
The choice is simple: if the file only requires type definitions, it includes
api-t.h, otherwise it includes the full api.h.
In addition, in these files, explicit includes for inttypes.h and limits.h
were dropped since these are now covered by api.h and api-t.h.
No other change was performed, given that this patch is large and
affects 201 files. At least one (tools.h) was already freestanding and
didn't get the new one added.
This is where other imported components are located. All files which
used to directly include ebtree were touched to update their include
path so that "import/" is now prefixed before the ebtree-related files.
The ebtree.h file was slightly adjusted to read compiler.h from the
common/ subdirectory (this is the only change).
A build issue was encountered when eb32sctree.h is loaded before
eb32tree.h because only the former checks for the latter before
defining type u32. This was addressed by adding the reverse ifdef
in eb32tree.h.
No further cleanup was done yet in order to keep changes minimal.
By default, HAProxy is able to implicitly upgrade an H1 client connection to an
H2 connection if the first request it receives from a given HTTP connection
matches the HTTP/2 connection preface. This way, it is possible to support H1
and H2 clients on a non-SSL connections. It could be a problem if for any
reason, the H2 upgrade is not acceptable. "option disable-h2-upgrade" may now be
used to disable it, per proxy. The main puprose of this option is to let an
admin to totally disable the H2 support for security reasons. Recently, a
critical issue in the HPACK decoder was fixed, forcing everyone to upgrade their
HAProxy version to fix the bug. It is possible to disable H2 for SSL
connections, but not on clear ones. This option would have been a viable
workaround.
A list of variables is now associated to each tcp-check ruleset. It is more a
less a list of set-var expressions. This list may be filled during the
configuration parsing. The listed variables will then be set during each
execution of the tcp-check healthcheck, at the begining, before execution of the
the first tcp-check rule.
This patch is mandatory to convert all protocol checks to tcp-checks. It is a
way to customize shared tcp-check rulesets.
To allow reusing these blocks without consuming more memory, their list
should be static and share-able accross uses. The head of the list will
be shared as well.
It is thus necessary to extract the head of the rule list from the proxy
itself. Transform it into a pointer instead, that can be easily set to
an external dynamically allocated head.
Don't assume the connection always has a valid session in "owner".
Instead, attempt to retrieve the session from the stream, and modify
the error snapshot code to not assume we always have a session, or the proxy
for the other end.
This patch introduces the 'http-after-response' rules. These rules are evaluated
at the end of the response analysis, just before the data forwarding, on ALL
HTTP responses, the server ones but also all responses generated by
HAProxy. Thanks to this ruleset, it is now possible for instance to add some
headers to the responses generated by the stats applet. Following actions are
supported :
* allow
* add-header
* del-header
* replace-header
* replace-value
* set-header
* set-status
* set-var
* strict-mode
* unset-var
this log could be sometimes a bit confusing (depending on the number in
fact) when you read it (e.g is it the number of active connection?) -
only trained eyes knows haproxy output a different log when closing
active connections while stopping.

It is now possible to import in a proxy, fully or partially, error files
declared in an http-errors section. It may be done using the "errorfiles"
directive, followed by a name and optionally a list of status code. If there is
no status code specified, all error files of the http-errors section are
imported. Otherwise, only error files associated to the listed status code are
imported. For instance :
http-errors my-errors
errorfile 400 ...
errorfile 403 ...
errorfile 404 ...
frontend frt
errorfiles my-errors 403 404 # ==> error 400 not imported
rate-limits are valid for both frontend and listen, but not backend; so
we can simplify this check in a similar manner as it is done in e.g
max-keep-alive-queue.

In proxy_capture_error(), input data are copied in the error snapshot. The copy
must take care of the data wrapping. But the length of the first block is
wrong. It should be the amount of contiguous input data that can be copied
starting from the input's beginning. But the mininum between the input length
and the buffer size minus the input length is used instead. So it is a problem
if input data are wrapping or if more than the half of the buffer is used by
input data.
This patch must be backported as far as 1.9.
in the context of seamless reload and busy polling, older processes will
create unecessary cpu conflicts; we can assume there is no need for busy
polling for old processes which are waiting to be terminated.
This patch is not a bug fix itself but might be a good stability
improvment when you are un the context of frequent seamless reloads with
a high "hard-stop-after" value; for that reasons I think this patch
should be backported in all 2.x versions.

With a TCP frontend, it is possible to upgrade a connection to HTTP when the
backend is in HTTP mode. Concretly the upgrade install a new mux. So, once it is
done, the downgrade to TCP is no longer possible. So we must take care to never
assign a TCP backend to a stream on this connection. Otherwise, HAProxy crashes
because raw data from the server are handled as structured data on the client
side.
This patch fixes the issue #420. It must be backported to all versions
supporting the HTX.
We use it half times for the global_listener_queue and half times
for a proxy's queue and this requires the callers to take care of
these. Let's split it in two versions, the current one working only
on the global queue and another one dedicated to proxies for the
per-proxy queues. This cleans up quite a bit of code.
The proxies' soft_stop() function closes the FDs in all opened states
except LI_PAUSED. This means that a transient error on a listener might
cause it to turn back to the READY state if it happens exactly when a
reload signal is received.
This must be backported to all supported versions.
When using the master CLI with 'fd@', during a reload, the master CLI
proxy is stopped. Unfortunately if this is an inherited FD it is closed
too, and the master CLI won't be able to bind again during the
re-execution. It lead the master to fallback in waitpid mode.
This patch forbids the inherited FDs in the master's listeners to be
closed during a proxy_stop().
This patch is mandatory to use the -W option in VTest versions that contain the
-mcli feature.

Should be backported as far as 1.9.
Instead of using the same type for regular linked lists and "autolocked"
linked lists, use a separate type, "struct mt_list", for the autolocked one,
and introduce a set of macros, similar to the LIST_* macros, with the
MT_ prefix.
When we use the same entry for both regular list and autolocked list, as
is done for the "list" field in struct connection, we know have to explicitely
cast it to struct mt_list when using MT_ macros.
When we upgrade the mux from TCP to H2/HTX, don't use cs_destroy() to free
the conn_stream, use cs_free() instead. Using cs_destroy() would call the
mux detach method, and at that point of time the mux would be the H2 mux,
which knows nothing about that conn_stream, so bad things would happen.
This should eventually make upgrade from TCP to H2/HTX work, and fix
the github issue #196.
This should be backported to 2.0.
In stream_end_backend(), if we're upgrading from TCP to H1/HTX, as we don't
destroy the stream, we have to add the SF_HTX flag on the stream, or bad
things will happen.
This was broken when attempting to fix github issue #196.
This should be backported to 2.0.
There were 221 places where a status message or an error message were built
to be returned on the CLI. All of them were replaced to use cli_err(),
cli_msg(), cli_dynerr() or cli_dynmsg() depending on what was expected.
This removed a lot of duplicated code because most of the times, 4 lines
are replaced by a single, safer one.
In stream_set_backend(), if we have a TCP stream, and we want to upgrade it
to H2 instead of attempting ot reuse the stream, just destroy the
conn_stream, make sure we don't log anything about the stream, and pretend
we failed setting the backend, so that the stream will get destroyed.
New streams will then be created by the mux, as if the connection just
happened.
This fixes a crash when upgrading from TCP to H2, as the H2 mux totally
ignored the conn_stream provided by the upgrade, as reported in github
issue #196.
This should be backported to 2.0.
A problem involving server slowstart was reported by @max2k1 in issue #197.
The problem is that pendconn_grab_from_px() takes the proxy lock while
already under the server's lock while process_srv_queue() first takes the
proxy's lock then the server's lock.
While the latter seems more natural, it is fundamentally incompatible with
mayn other operations performed on servers, namely state change propagation,
where the proxy is only known after the server and cannot be locked around
the servers. Howwever reversing the lock in process_srv_queue() is trivial
and only the few functions related to dynamic cookies need to be adjusted
for this so that the proxy's lock is taken for each server operation. This
is possible because the proxy's server list is built once at boot time and
remains stable. So this is what this patch does.
The comments in the proxy and server structs were updated to mention this
rule that the server's lock may not be taken under the proxy's lock but
may enclose it.
Another approach could consist in using a second lock for the proxy's queue
which would be different from the regular proxy's lock, but given that the
operations above are rare and operate on small servers list, there is no
reason for overdesigning a solution.
This fix was successfully tested with 10000 servers in a backend where
adjusting the dyncookies in loops over the CLI didn't have a measurable
impact on the traffic.
The only workaround without the fix is to disable any occurrence of
"slowstart" on server lines, or to disable threads using "nbthread 1".
This must be backported as far as 1.8.
There is no standard case for HTTP header names because, as stated in the
RFC7230, they are case-insensitive. So applications must handle them in a
case-insensitive manner. But some bogus applications erroneously rely on the
case used by most browsers. This problem becomes critical with HTTP/2
because all header names must be exchanged in lowercase. And HAProxy uses the
same convention. All header names are sent in lowercase to clients and servers,
regardless of the HTTP version.
This design choice is linked to the HTX implementation. So, for previous
versions (2.0 and 1.9), a workaround is to disable the HTX mode to fall
back to the legacy HTTP mode.
Since the legacy HTTP mode was removed, some users reported interoperability
issues because their application was not able anymore to handle HTTP/1 message
received from HAProxy. So, we've decided to add a way to change the case of some
headers before sending them. It is now possible to define a "mapping" between a
lowercase header name and a version supported by the bogus application. To do
so, you must use the global directives "h1-case-adjust" and
"h1-case-adjust-file". Then options "h1-case-adjust-bogus-client" and
"h1-case-adjust-bogus-server" may be used in proxy sections to enable the
conversion. See the configuration manual for more info.
Of course, our advice is to urgently upgrade these applications for
interoperability concerns and because they may be vulnerable to various types of
content smuggling attacks. But, if your are really forced to use an unmaintained
bogus application, you may use these directive, at your own risks.
If it is relevant, this feature may be backported to 2.0.
There is one unprotected call to stop_proxy() from the manage_proxy()
task, so there is a single caller by definition, but there is also
another such call from the CLI's "shutdown frontend" parser. This
one does it under the proxy's lock but the first one doesn't use it.
Thus it is theorically possible to corrupt the list of listeners in a
proxy by issuing "shutdown frontend" and SIGUSR1 exactly at the same
time. While it sounds particularly contrived or stupid, it could
possibly happen with automated tools that would send actions via
various channels. This could cause the process to loop forever or
to crash and thus stop faster than expected.
This might be backported as far as 1.8.
The keywords req* and rsp* are now unsupported. So the corresponding lists are
now unused. It is safe to remove them from the structure proxy.
As a result, the code dealing with these rules in HTTP analyzers was also
removed.
