It's never easy to guess what services are built in. We currently have
the prometheus exporter in contrib/ which is the only extension for now.
Let's enumerate all available ones just like we do for filterr and pollers.
gcc 6+ complains about a possible null-deref here due to the test in
objt_server() :
if (objt_server(s->target))
HA_ATOMIC_ADD(&objt_server(s->target)->counters.retries, 1);
Let's simply change it to __objt_server(). This can be backported to
1.9 and 1.8.
Commit 32211a1 ("BUG/MEDIUM: stream: Don't forget to free
s->unique_id in stream_free().") addressed a memory leak but in
exchange may cause double-free due to the fact that after freeing
s->unique_id it doesn't null it and then calls http_end_txn()
which frees it again. Thus the process quickly crashes at runtime.
This fix must be backported to all stable branches where the
aforementioned patch was backported.
In stream_free(), free s->unique_id. We may still have one, because it's
allocated in log.c::strm_log() no matter what, even if it's a TCP connection
and thus it won't get free'd by http_end_txn().
Failure to do so leads to a memory leak.
This should probably be backported to all maintained branches.
In 1.5-dev13, a bug was introduced by commit e3224e870 ("BUG/MINOR:
session: ensure that we don't retry connection if some data were sent").
If a connection error is reported after some data were sent (and lost),
we used to accidently mark the front connection as being in error instead
of only the back one because the two direction flags were applied to the
same channel. This case is extremely rare with raw connections but can
happen a bit more often with multiplexed streams. This will result in
the error not being correctly reported to the client.
This patch can be backported to all supported versions.
When a connection reuse fails, we must not wait before retrying, as most
likely the issue is related to the reused connection and not to the server
itself.
This should be backported to 1.9, though it depends on previous patches
dealing with SI_ST_CON for connection reuse.
Before the first send() attempt, we should be in SI_ST_CON, not
SI_ST_EST, since we have not yet attempted to send and we are
allowed to retry. This is particularly important with complex
outgoing muxes which can fail during the first send attempt (e.g.
failed stream ID allocation).
It only requires that sess_update_st_con_tcp() knows about this
possibility, as we must not forcefully close a reused connection
when facing an error in this case, this will be handled later.
This may be backported to 1.9 with care after some observation period.
We currently detect a number of situations where we have to immediately
deal with a state change, but we failed to consider the case of the
synchronous error reported on the stream-interface. We definitely do not
want to have to wait for a timeout to handle this one, especially at the
beginning of the connection when it can lead to an immediate retry.
This should be backported to 1.9.
The "show sess all" command didn't allow to detect whether compression
is in use for a given stream, which is sometimes annoying. Let's add a
few more info about the HTTP messages, namely the flags, body len, chunk
len and the "next" pointer.
The "waiting" flag indicates if the stream is waiting for some memory,
and was placed on the same output line as the txn for ease of reading.
But since 1.6 the txn is not part of the stream anymore so this output
was placed under a condition, resulting in "waiting" to appear only
when a txn is present. Let's move it upper, closer to the stream's
flags to fix this.
This may safely be backported though it has little value for older
versions.
Commit b9af88151 ("MINOR: stream/htx: Add info about the HTX structs in
"show sess all" command") accidently forgot the flags on the request
path, it was only on the response path.
It makes sense to backport this to 1.9 so that both outputs are the same.
This one used to rely on a few spin locks around lists manipulations
only but 1) there were still a few races (e.g. when aborting, or
between STAT_ST_INIT and STAT_ST_LIST), and 2) after last commit
which dumps htx info it became obvious that dereferencing the buffer
contents is not safe at all.
This patch uses the thread isolation from the rendez-vous point
instead, to guarantee that nothing moves during the dump. It may
make the dump a bit slower but it will be 100% safe.
This fix must be backported to 1.9, and possibly to 1.8 which likely
suffers from the short races above, eventhough they're extremely
hard to trigger.
For HTX streams, info about the HTX structure is now dumped for the request and
the response channels in "show sess all" command.
The patch may be backported to 1.9.
As long-time changes have accumulated over time, the exported functions
of the stream-interface were almost all prefixed "si_<something>" while
most private ones (mostly callbacks) were called "stream_int_<something>".
There were still a few confusing exceptions, which were addressed to
follow this shcme :
- stream_sock_read0(), only used internally, was renamed stream_int_read0()
and made static
- stream_int_notify() is only private and was made static
- stream_int_{check_timeouts,report_error,retnclose,register_handler,update}
were renamed si_<something>.
Now it is clearer when checking one of these if it risks to be used outside
or not.
Before setting the infinite forward, we first forward all remaining input data
from the channel. Of course for HTX streams, this must be done using the amount
of data in the HTX message not in the channel (which appears as full because of
the HTX).
When the connection failed, we don't really want to close the conn_stream,
as we're probably about to retry, so just make sure the file descriptor is
closed.
These flags haven't been used for a while. SF_TUNNEL was reintroduced
by commit d62b98c6e ("MINOR: stream: don't set backend's nor response
analysers on SF_TUNNEL") to handle the two-level streams needed to
deal with the first model for H2, and was not removed after this model
was abandonned. SF_INITIALIZED was only set. SF_CONN_TAR was never
referenced at all.
All the HTX definition is self-contained and doesn't really depend on
anything external since it's a mostly protocol. In addition, some
external similar files (like h2) also placed in common used to rely
on it, making it a bit awkward.
This patch moves the two htx.h files into a single self-contained one.
The historical dependency on sample.h could be also removed since it
used to be there only for http_meth_t which is now in http.h.
The CLI proxy was not handling payload. To do that, we needed to keep a
connection active on a server and to transfer each new line over that
connection until we receive a empty line.
The CLI proxy handles the payload in the same way that the CLI do it.
Examples:
$ echo -e "@1;add map #-1 <<\n$(cat data)\n" | socat /tmp/master-socket -
$ socat /tmp/master-socket readline
prompt
master> @1
25130> add map #-1 <<
+ test test
+ test2 test2
+ test3 test3
+
25130>
To ease the fast forwarding and the infinte forwarding on HTX proxies, 2
functions have been added to let the channel be almost aware of the way data are
stored in its buffer. By calling these functions instead of legacy ones, we are
sure to forward the right amount of data.
These potential null-deref warnings are emitted on gcc 7 and above
when threads are disabled due to the use of objt_server() after an
existing validity test. Let's switch to __objt_server() since we
know the pointer is valid, it will not confuse the compiler.
Some of these may be backported to 1.8.
We can reach sess_update_st_con_tcp() while we still have a connection
attached, so take that into account, and free the connection, instead of
assuming it's always a conn_stream.
signal_init(), init_log(), init_stream(), and init_task() all used to
only preset some values and lists. This needs to be done very early to
provide a reliable interface to all other users. The calls used to be
explicit in haproxy.c:init(). Now they're placed in initcalls at the
STG_PREPARE stage. The functions are not exported anymore.
This commit replaces the explicit pool creation that are made in
constructors with a pool registration. Not only this simplifies the
pools declaration (it can be done on a single line after the head is
declared), but it also removes references to pools from within
constructors. The only remaining create_pool() calls are those
performed in init functions after the config is parsed, so there
is no more user of potentially uninitialized pool now.
It has been the opportunity to remove no less than 12 constructors
and 6 init functions.
This patch replaces a number of __decl_hathread() followed by HA_SPIN_INIT
or HA_RWLOCK_INIT by the new __decl_spinlock() or __decl_rwlock() which
automatically registers the lock for initialization in during the STG_LOCK
init stage. A few static modifiers were lost in the process, but since they
were not essential at all it was not worth extending the API to provide such
a variant.
This switches explicit calls to various trivial registration methods for
keywords, muxes or protocols from constructors to INITCALL1 at stage
STG_REGISTER. All these calls have in common to consume a single pointer
and return void. Doing this removes 26 constructors. The following calls
were addressed :
- acl_register_keywords
- bind_register_keywords
- cfg_register_keywords
- cli_register_kw
- flt_register_keywords
- http_req_keywords_register
- http_res_keywords_register
- protocol_register
- register_mux_proto
- sample_register_convs
- sample_register_fetches
- srv_register_keywords
- tcp_req_conn_keywords_register
- tcp_req_cont_keywords_register
- tcp_req_sess_keywords_register
- tcp_res_cont_keywords_register
- flt_register_keywords
When ending a stream, if the origin is an appctx, the appctx will have been
destroyed already, but it does not destroy the session. So later, when we
try to destroy the session, we try to dereference sess->origin and die
trying.
Fix this by explicitely setting sess->origin to NULL before calling
session_free().
If an ALPN (or a NPN) was chosen for a server, defer choosing the mux until
after the SSL handshake is done, and the ALPN/NPN has been negociated, so
that we know which mux to pick.
As we now will no longer try tro subscribe to recv/send events before the
connection is established, there's no need to reactivate polling on the fd
when retrying connection. It will be activated later on subscribe.
Right now we measure for each task the cumulated time spent waiting for
the CPU and using it. The timestamp uses a 64-bit integer to report a
nanosecond-level date. This is only enabled when "profiling.tasks" is
enabled, and consumes less than 1% extra CPU on x86_64 when enabled.
The cumulated processing time and wait time are reported in "show sess".
The task's counters are also reset when an HTTP transaction is reset
since the HTTP part pretends to restart on a fresh new stream. This
will make sure we always report correct numbers for each request in
the logs.
At the moment the situation with activity measurement is quite tricky
because the struct activity is defined in global.h and declared in
haproxy.c, with operations made in time.h and relying on freq_ctr
which are defined in freq_ctr.h which itself includes time.h. It's
barely possible to touch any of these files without breaking all the
circular dependency.
Let's move all this stuff to activity.{c,h} and be done with it. The
measurement of active and stolen time is now done in a dedicated
function called just after tv_before_poll() instead of mixing the two,
which used to be a lazy (but convenient) decision.
No code was changed, stuff was just moved around.
When a server is down, the channel's data must not be consumed. This is
required to allow redispatch and connection retry. So now, we wait for
the connection to be marked as connected, with the flag CO_FL_CONNECTED,
before starting to consume channel's data. In the mux, this event is
tracked with the flag H1C_F_CS_WAIT_CONN.
Now, the connection mode is detected in the mux and not in HTX analyzers
anymore. Keep-alive connections are now managed by the mux. A new stream is
created for each transaction. This removes the most important part of the
synchronization between channels and the HTTP transaction cleanup. These changes
only affect the HTX part (proto_htx.c). Legacy HTTP analyzers remain untouched
for now.
On the client-side, the mux is responsible to create new streams when a new
request starts. It is also responsible to parse and update the "Connection:"
header of the response. On the server-side, the mux is responsible to parse and
update the "Connection:" header of the request. Muxes on each side are
independent. For now, there is no connection pool on the server-side, so it
always close the server connection.
Instead of trying to receive as soon as the connection is created, and to
eventually have to transfer subscription if we move connections, wait
until the connection is established before attempting to recv.
Remaining calls to si_cant_put() were all for lack of room and were
turned to si_rx_room_blk(). A few places where SI_FL_RXBLK_ROOM was
cleared by hand were converted to si_rx_room_rdy().
The now unused si_cant_put() function was removed.
The stream interface used to conflate a missing buffer and lack of
buffer space into SI_FL_WAIT_ROOM but this causes difficulties as
these cannot be checked at the same moment and are not resolved at
the same moment either. Now we instead mark the buffer as presumably
available using si_rx_buff_rdy() and mark it as unavailable+requested
using si_rx_buff_blk().
The call to si_alloc_buf() was moved after si_stop_put(). This makes
sure that the SI_FL_RX_WAIT_EP flag is cleared on allocation failure so
that the function is called again if the callee fails to do its work.
This flag is not enough to describe all blocking situations, as can be
seen in each case we remove it. The muxes has taught us that using multiple
blocking flags in parallel will be much easier, so let's start to do this
now. This patch only renames this flags in order to make next changes more
readable.
There are still some unwelcome synchronous calls to si_cs_recv() in
process_stream(). Let's have a new function si_sync_recv() to perform
a synchronous receive call on a stream interface regardless of the type
of its endpoint, and move these calls there. For now it only implements
conn_streams since it doesn't seem useful to support applets there. The
function implements an extra check for the stream interface to be in an
established state before attempting anything.
In commit f26c26c ("BUG/MEDIUM: stream-int: change the way buffer room
is requested by a stream-int") we used to call si_want_put() at the
end of sess_update_st_con_tcp(), when switching to SI_ST_EST state.
But this is incorrect as there are a few other situations where we
can switch to this state, such as in si_connect() where a connection
reuse is detected, or when directly calling an applet (in which case
that was already covered anyway). For now it doesn't have any side
effect but it could impact connection reuse after the stream-int
changes by stalling an immediately reused connection.
Let's move this flag change to sess_establish() instead, which is the
only place which is always called exactly once on connection setup.
No backport is needed, this is purely 1.9.
