It is a transient commit to prepare next changes. Now, when a conn-stream is
created from an applet or a multiplexer, an endpoint is always provided. In
addition, the API to create a conn-stream was specialized to have one
function per type.
The next step will be to share the endpoint structure.
This change is only significant for the multiplexer part. For the applets,
the context and the endpoint are the same. Thus, there is no much change. For
the multiplexer part, the connection was used to set the conn-stream
endpoint and the mux's stream was the context. But it is a bit strange
because once a mux is installed, it takes over the connection. In a
wonderful world, the connection should be totally hidden behind the mux. The
stream-interface and, in a lesser extent, the stream, still access the
connection because that was inherited from the pre-multiplexer era.
Now, the conn-stream endpoint is the mux's stream (an opaque entity for the
conn-stream) and the connection is the context. Dedicated functions have
been added to attached an applet or a mux to a conn-stream.
Some syscalls at the TCP level act directly on the FD. Some of them
are used by TCP actions like set-tos, set-mark, silent-drop, others
try to retrieve TCP info, get the source or destination address. These
ones must not be called with an invalid FD coming from an FD-less
connection, so let's add the relevant tests for this. It's worth
noting that all these ones already have fall back plans (do nothing,
error, or switch to alternate implementation).
Previous uses of `ist.cocci` did not add `--include-headers-for-types` and
`--recursive-includes` preventing Coccinelle seeing `struct ist` members of
other structs.
Reapply the patch with proper flags to further clean up the use of the ist API.
The command used was:
spatch -sp_file dev/coccinelle/ist.cocci -in_place --include-headers --include-headers-for-types --recursive-includes --dir src/
This one is referenced in initcalls by its pointer, it makes no sense
to declare it inline. At best it causes function duplication, at worst
it doesn't build on older compilers.
The unsafe conn-stream API (__cs_*) is now used when we are sure the good
endpoint or application is attached to the conn-stream. This avoids compiler
warnings about possible null derefs. It also simplify the code and clear up
any ambiguity about manipulated entities.
In the same way a stream has always valid conn-streams, when a health-checks
is created, a conn-stream is now created and the health-check is attached on
it, as an app. This simplify a bit the connect part when a health-check is
running.
Thanks to all previous changes, it is now possible to move the
stream-interface into the conn-stream. To do so, some SI functions are
removed and their conn-stream counterparts are added. In addition, the
conn-stream is now responsible to create and release the
stream-interface. While the stream-interfaces were inlined in the stream
structure, there is now a pointer in the conn-stream. stream-interfaces are
now dynamically allocated. Thus a dedicated pool is added. It is a temporary
change because, at the end, the stream-interface structure will most
probably disappear.
In the same way the conn-stream has a pointer to the stream endpoint , this
patch adds a pointer to the application entity in the conn-stream
structure. For now, it is a stream or a health-check. It is mandatory to
merge the stream-interface with the conn-stream.
To be able to handle applets as a conn-stream endpoint, we must be prepared
to handle different types of endpoints. First of all, the conn-strream's
connection must no longer be used directly.
At a few places we were still using protocol_by_family() instead of
the richer protocol_lookup(). The former is limited as it enforces
SOCK_STREAM and a stream protocol at the control layer. At least with
protocol_lookup() we don't have this limitationn. The values were still
set for now but later we can imagine making them configurable on the
fly.
When an HTTP response is parsed, early parsing errors are not properly
handled. When this error is reported by the multiplexer, nothing is copied
into the input buffer. The HTX message remains empty but the
HTX_FL_PARSING_ERROR flag is set. In addition CS_FL_EOI is set on the
conn-stream. This last flag must be handled to prevent subscription for
receive events. Otherwise, in the best case, a L7 timeout error is
reported. But a transient loop is also possible if a shutdown is received
because the multiplexer notifies the check of the event while the check
never handles it and waits for more data.
Now, if CS_FL_EOI flag is set on the conn-stream, expect rules are
evaluated. Any error must be handled there.
Thanks to @kazeburo for his valuable report.
This patch should fix the issue #1420. It must be backported at least to
2.4. On 2.3 and 2.2, there is no loop but the wrong error is reported (empty
response instead of invalid one). Thus it may also be backported as far as
2.2.
With the commit eaba25dd9 ("BUG/MINOR: tcpcheck: Don't use arg list for
default proxies during parsing"), we restricted the use of sample fetch in
tcpcheck rules defined in a defaults section to those depending on explicit
arguments only. This means a tcpcheck rules defined in a defaults section
cannot rely on argument unresolved during the configuration parsing.
Thanks to recent changes, it is now possible again.
This patch is mandatory to support TCP/HTTP rules in defaults sections.
Rules are currently allocated using calloc() by their caller, which does
not make it very convenient to pass more information such as the file
name and line number.
This patch introduces new_act_rule() which performs the malloc() and
already takes in argument the ruleset (ACT_F_*), the file name and the
line number. This saves the caller from having to assing ->from, and
will allow to improve the internal storage with more info.
This one doesn't use anything from an SSL context, it only checks the
type of the transport layer of a connection, thus it belongs to
connection.h. This is particularly visible due to all the ifdefs
around it in various call places.
During tcp/http check rules parsing, when a sample fetch or a log-format
string is parsed, the proxy's argument list used to track unresolved
argument is no longer passed for default proxies. It means it is no longer
possible to rely on sample fetches depending on the execution context (for
instance 'nbsrv').
It is important to avoid HAProxy crashes because these arguments are
resolved during the configuration validity check. But, default proxies are
not evaluated during this stage. Thus, these arguments remain unresolved.
It will probably be possible to relax this rule. But to ease backports, it
is forbidden for now.
This patch must be backported as far as 2.2. It depends on the commit
"MINOR: arg: Be able to forbid unresolved args when building an argument
list". It must be adapted for the 2.3 because PR_CAP_DEF capability was
introduced in the 2.4. A solution may be to test The proxy's id agains NULL.
When the LDAP response is parsed, the message length is not properly
decoded. While it works for LDAP servers encoding it on 1 byte, it does not
work for those using a multi-bytes encoding. Among others, Active Directory
servers seems to encode messages or elements length on 4 bytes.
In this patch, we only handle length of BindResponse messages encoded on 1,
2 or 4 bytes. In theory, it may be encoded on any bytes number less than 127
bytes. But it is useless to make this part too complex. It should be ok this
way.
This patch should fix the issue #1390. It should be backported to all stable
versions. While it should be easy to backport it as far as 2.2, the patch
will have to be totally rewritten for lower versions.
The vars_init() name is particularly confusing as it does not initialize
the variables code but the head of a list of variables passed in
arguments. And we'll soon need to have proper initialization code, so
let's rename it now.
In tcpcheck_eval_send(), the condition to detect there are still pending
data in the output buffer is buggy. Presence of raw data must be tested for
TCP connection only. But a condition on the connection was missing to be
sure it is not an HTX connection.
This patch must be backported as far as 2.2.
The index of the failing rule is reported in the health-check log message. The
rules index is also used in the check traces. But for implicit HTTP send/expect
rules, the index is wrong. It must be incremented by one compared to the
preceding rule.
This patch may be backported as far as 2.2.
The server_parse_maxconn_change_request locks the server lock. However,
this function can be called via agent-checks or lua code which already
lock it. This bug has been introduced by the following commit :
commit 79a88ba3d0
BUG/MAJOR: server: prevent deadlock when using 'set maxconn server'
This commit tried to fix another deadlock with can occur because
previoulsy server_parse_maxconn_change_request requires the server lock
to be held. However, it may call internally process_srv_queue which also
locks the server lock. The locking policy has thus been updated. The fix
is functional for the CLI 'set maxconn' but fails to address the
agent-check / lua counterparts.
This new issue is fixed in two steps :
- changes from the above commit have been reverted. This means that
server_parse_maxconn_change_request must again be called with the
server lock.
- to counter the deadlock fixed by the above commit, process_srv_queue
now takes an argument to render the server locking optional if the
caller already held it. This is only used by
server_parse_maxconn_change_request.
The above commit was subject to backport up to 1.8. Thus this commit
must be backported in every release where it is already present.
Set "config :" as a prefix for the user messages context before starting
the configuration parsing. All following stderr output will be prefixed
by it.
As a consequence, remove extraneous prefix "config" already specified in
various ha_alert/warning/notice calls.
The current "ADD" vs "ADDQ" is confusing because when thinking in terms
of appending at the end of a list, "ADD" naturally comes to mind, but
here it does the opposite, it inserts. Several times already it's been
incorrectly used where ADDQ was expected, the latest of which was a
fortunate accident explained in 6fa922562 ("CLEANUP: stream: explain
why we queue the stream at the head of the server list").
Let's use more explicit (but slightly longer) names now:
LIST_ADD -> LIST_INSERT
LIST_ADDQ -> LIST_APPEND
LIST_ADDED -> LIST_INLIST
LIST_DEL -> LIST_DELETE
The same is true for MT_LISTs, including their "TRY" variant.
LIST_DEL_INIT keeps its short name to encourage to use it instead of the
lazier LIST_DELETE which is often less safe.
The change is large (~674 non-comment entries) but is mechanical enough
to remain safe. No permutation was performed, so any out-of-tree code
can easily map older names to new ones.
The list doc was updated.
Add the trace support for the checks. Only tcp-check based health-checks are
supported, including the agent-check.
In traces, the first argument is always a check object. So it is easy to get
all info related to the check. The tcp-check ruleset, the conn-stream and
the connection, the server state...
No need to keep this flag apart any more, let's merge it into the global
state. The CLI's output state was extended to 6 digits and the linger/cloned
flags moved inside the parenthesis.
Introduce a new XPRT method, start(). The init() method will now only
initialize whatever is needed for the XPRT to run, but any action the XPRT
has to do before being ready, such as handshakes, will be done in the new
start() method. That way, we will be sure the full stack of xprt will be
initialized before attempting to do anything.
The init() call is also moved to conn_prepare(). There's no longer any reason
to wait for the ctrl to be ready, any action will be deferred until start(),
anyway. This means conn_xprt_init() is no longer needed.
When a "tcp-check" or a "http-check" rule is parsed, we try to get the
previous rule in the ruleset to get its index. We must take care to reset
the pointer on this rule in case an error is triggered later on the
parsing. Otherwise, the same rule may be released twice. For instance, it
happens with such line :
http-check meth GET uri / ## note there is no "send" parameter
This patch must be backported as far as 2.2.
If an agent-check is configured for a server, When the response is parsed,
the .health threshold of the agent must be updated on up/down/stopped/fail
command and not the threshold of the health-check. Otherwise, the
agent-check will compete with the health-check and may mark a DOWN server as
UP.
This patch should fix the issue #1176. It must be backported as far as 2.2.
The default proxy was passed as a variable to all parsers instead of a
const, which is not without risk, especially when some timeout parsers used
to make some int pointers point to the default values for comparisons. We
want to be certain that none of these parsers will modify the defaults
sections by accident, so it's important to mark this proxy as const.
This patch touches all occurrences found (89).
Refactoring performed with the following Coccinelle patch:
@@
char *s;
@@
(
- ist2(s, strlen(s))
+ ist(s)
|
- ist2(strdup(s), strlen(s))
+ ist(strdup(s))
)
Note that this replacement is safe even in the strdup() case, because `ist()`
will not call `strlen()` on a `NULL` pointer. Instead is inserts a length of
`0`, effectively resulting in `IST_NULL`.
This makes the code more readable and less prone to copy-paste errors.
In addition, it allows to place some __builtin_constant_p() predicates
to trigger a link-time error in case the compiler knows that the freed
area is constant. It will also produce compile-time error if trying to
free something that is not a regular pointer (e.g. a function).
The DEBUG_MEM_STATS macro now also defines an instance for ha_free()
so that all these calls can be checked.
178 occurrences were converted. The vast majority of them were handled
by the following Coccinelle script, some slightly refined to better deal
with "&*x" or with long lines:
@ rule @
expression E;
@@
- free(E);
- E = NULL;
+ ha_free(&E);
It was verified that the resulting code is the same, more or less a
handful of cases where the compiler optimized slightly differently
the temporary variable that holds the copy of the pointer.
A non-negligible amount of {free(str);str=NULL;str_len=0;} are still
present in the config part (mostly header names in proxies). These
ones should also be cleaned for the same reasons, and probably be
turned into ist strings.
When a connect rule is evaluated a test is performed on the "port" variable
while it is set to 0 just on the line just above. Just remove this useless
test to make ccpcheck happy.
This patch fixes the issue #1113.
The default proxy was passed as a variable, which in addition to being
a PITA to deal with in the config parser, doesn't feel safe to use when
it ought to be const.
This will only affect new code so no backport is needed.
This is just an API bug but it's annoying when trying to tidy the code.
The source list passed in argument must be a const and not a variable,
as it's typically the list head from a default proxy and must obviously
not be modified by the function. No backport is needed as it only impacts
new code.
The EOM block may be removed. The HTX_FL_EOM flags is enough. Most of time,
to know if the end of the message is reached, we just need to have an empty
HTX message with HTX_FL_EOM flag set. It may also be detected when the last
block of a message with HTX_FL_EOM flag is manipulated.
Removing EOM blocks simplifies the HTX message filling. Indeed, there is no
more edge problems when the message ends but there is no more space to write
the EOM block. However, some part are more tricky. Especially the
compression filter or the FCGI mux. The compression filter must finish the
compression on the last DATA block. Before it was performed on the EOM
block, an extra DATA block with the checksum was added. Now, we must detect
the last DATA block to be sure to finish the compression. The FCGI mux on
its part must be sure to reserve the space for the empty STDIN record on the
last DATA block while this record was inserted on the EOM block.
The H2 multiplexer is probably the part that benefits the most from this
change. Indeed, it is now fairly easier to known when to set the ES flag.
The HTX documentaion has been updated accordingly.
When a tcpcheck ruleset uses multiple connections, the existing one must be
closed and destroyed before openning the new one. This part is handled in
the tcpcheck_main() function, when called from the wake callback function
(wake_srv_chk). But it is indeed a problem, because this function may be
called from the mux layer. This means a mux may call the wake callback
function of the data layer, which may release the connection and the mux. It
is easy to see how it is hazardous. And actually, depending on the
scheduling, it leads to crashes.
Thus, we must avoid to release the connection in the wake callback context,
and move this part in the check's process function instead. To do so, we
rely on the CHK_ST_CLOSE_CONN flags. When a connection must be replaced by a
new one, this flag is set on the check, in tcpcheck_main() function, and the
check's task is woken up. Then, the connection is really closed in
process_chk_conn() function.
This patch must be backported as far as 2.2, with some adaptations however
because the code is not exactly the same.
When all rules of a tcpcheck ruleset are successfully evaluated, the right
check status must always be reported. It is true if the last evaluated rule
is an expect or a connect rule. But not if it is a send rule. In this
situation, nothing more is done until the check timeout expiration and a
L7TOUT is reported instead of a L7OK.
Now, by default, when all rules were successfully evaluated, a L7OK is
reported. When the last evaluated rule is an expect or a connect, the
behavior remains unchanged.
This patch should fix the issue #1027. It must be backported as far as 2.2.
Allow the user to specify a custom Connection header for http-check
send. This is useful for example to implement a websocket upgrade check.
If no connection header has been set, a 'Connection: close' header is
automatically appended to allow the server to close the connection
immediately after the request/response.
Update the documentation related to http-check send.
This fixes the github issue #1009.
For HTTP expect rules, if the buffer is not empty, it is guarantee that all
responses headers are received, with the start-line. Thus, except for
payload matching, there is no reason to wait for more data from the moment
the htx message is not empty.
This patch may be backported as far as 2.2.
The check timeout is used to limit a health-check execution. By default
inter timeout is used. But when defined the check timeout is used. In this
case, the inter timeout (or connect timeout) is used for the connection
establishment only. And the check timeout for the health-check
execution. Thus, it must be set after a successfull connect. It means it is
rearm at the end of each connect rule.
This patch with the previous one (BUG/MINOR: http-check: Use right condition
to consider HTX message as full) should solve the issue #991. It must be
backported as far as 2.2. On the 2.3 and 2.2, there are 2 places were the
connection establishement is handled. The check timeout must be set on both.
When an HTTP expect rule is evaluated, we must know if more data is expected
or not to wait if the matching fails. If the whole response is received or
if the HTX message is full, we must not wait. In this context,
htx_free_data_space() must be used instead of htx_free_space(). The fisrt
one count down the block size. Otherwise at the edge, when only the block
size remains free (8 bytes), we may think there is some place for more data
while the mux is unable to add more block.
This bug explains the loop described on the GH issue #991. It should be
backported as far as 2.2.
L7OKC may now be used as an error status for an HTTP/TCP expect rule. Thus
it is for instance possible to write:
option httpchk GET /isalive
http-check expect status 200,404
http-check expect status 200 error-status L7OKC
It is more or less the same than the disable-on-404 option except that if a
DOWN is up again but still replying a 404 will be set to NOLB state. While
it will stay in DOWN state with the disable-on-404 option.
