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.
And also rename standard.c to tools.c. The original split between
tools.h and standard.h dates from version 1.3-dev and was mostly an
accident. This patch moves the files back to what they were expected
to be, and takes care of not changing anything else. However this
time tools.h was split between functions and types, because it contains
a small number of commonly used macros and structures (e.g. name_desc)
which in turn cause the massive list of includes of tools.h to conflict
with the callers.
They remain the ugliest files of the whole project and definitely need
to be cleaned and split apart. A few types are defined there only for
functions provided there, and some parts are even OS-specific and should
move somewhere else, such as the symbol resolution code.
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.
This one used to be stored into debug.h but the debug tools got larger
and require a lot of other includes, which can't use BUG_ON() anymore
because of this. It does not make sense and instead this macro should
be placed into the lower includes and given its omnipresence, the best
solution is to create a new bug.h with the few surrounding macros needed
to trigger bugs and place assertions anywhere.
Another benefit is that it won't be required to add include <debug.h>
anymore to use BUG_ON, it will automatically be covered by api.h. No
less than 32 occurrences were dropped.
The FSM_PRINTF macro was dropped since not used at all anymore (probably
since 1.6 or so).
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.
It's more generic and versatile than the previous shut_your_big_mouth_gcc()
that was used to silence annoying warnings as it's not limited to ignoring
syscalls returns only. This allows us to get rid of the aforementioned
function and the shut_your_big_mouth_gcc_int variable, that started to
look ugly in multi-threaded environments.
The frontend accept code uses conn_get_{from,to}_addr for logging and
debugging, without really checking if the operation succeeds. In
preparation of future changes, let's switch to conn_get_{src,dst}() and
integrate status check for possible failures.
The old module proto_http does not exist anymore. All code dedicated to the HTTP
analysis is now grouped in the file proto_htx.c. So, to finish the polishing
after removing the legacy HTTP code, proto_htx.{c,h} files have been moved in
http_ana.{c,h} files.
In addition, all HTX analyzers and related functions prefixed with "htx_" have
been renamed to start with "http_" instead.
First of all, all legacy HTTP analyzers and all functions exclusively used by
them were removed. So the most of the functions in proto_http.{c,h} were
removed. Only functions to deal with the HTTP transaction have been kept. Then,
http_msg and hdr_idx modules were entirely removed. And finally the structure
http_msg was lightened of all its useless information about the legacy HTTP. The
structure hdr_ctx was also removed because unused now, just like unused states
in the enum h1_state. Note that the memory pool "hdr_idx" was removed and
"http_txn" is now smaller.
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
Chunks are only a subset of a buffer (a non-wrapping version with no head
offset). Despite this we still carry a lot of duplicated code between
buffers and chunks. Replacing chunks with buffers would significantly
reduce the maintenance efforts. This first patch renames the chunk's
fields to match the name and types used by struct buffers, with the goal
of isolating the code changes from the declaration changes.
Most of the changes were made with spatch using this coccinelle script :

Some minor updates to 3 http functions had to be performed to take size_t
ints instead of ints in order to match the unsigned length here.
Patch adds ability to fetch frontend's default backend name in your
logic, so it can be used later to derive other backend names to make routing
decisions.
During the migration to the second version of the pools, the new
functions and pool pointers were all called "pool_something2()" and
"pool2_something". Now there's no more pool v1 code and it's a real
pain to still have to deal with this. Let's clean this up now by
removing the "2" everywhere, and by renaming the pool heads
"pool_head_something".
All the references to connections in the data path from streams and
stream_interfaces were changed to use conn_streams. Most functions named
"something_conn" were renamed to "something_cs" for this. Sometimes the
connection still is what matters (eg during a connection establishment)
and were not always renamed. The change is significant and minimal at the
same time, and was quite thoroughly tested now. As of this patch, all
accesses to the connection from upper layers go through the pass-through
mux.
It's pointless to read it on each and every accept(), as we only need
it for reporting in debugging mode a few lines later. Let's move this
part to the relevant block.
Till now connections used to rely exclusively on file descriptors. It
was planned in the past that alternative solutions would be implemented,
leading to member "union t" presenting sock.fd only for now.
With QUIC, the connection will need to continue to exist but will not
rely on a file descriptor but a connection ID.
So this patch introduces a "connection handle" which is either a file
descriptor or a connection ID, to replace the existing "union t". We've
now removed the intermediate "struct sock" which was never used. There
is no functional change at all, though the struct connection was inflated
by 32 bits on 64-bit platforms due to alignment.
Recently merged commit 0cfe388 ("MINOR: frontend: retrieve the ALPN name when
available") assumed that the connection is always known in frontend_accept()
which is not true for outgoing peers connections for example.
No backport needed.
For HTTP/2 we'll have to choose the upper layer based on the
advertised protocol name here and we want to keep debugging,
so let's move debugging earlier.
These 2 patches add ability to fetch frontend/backend name in your
logic, so they can be used later to make routing decisions (fe_name) or
taking some actions based on backend which responded to request (be_name).
In our case we needed a fetcher to be able to extract information we
needed from frontend name.
The fe_req_rate is similar to fe_sess_rate, but fetches the number
of HTTP requests per second instead of connections/sessions per second.

The union name "data" is a little bit heavy while we read the source
code because we can read "data.data.sint". The rename from "data" to "u"
makes the read easiest like "data.u.sint".
This patch remove the struct information stored both in the struct
sample_data and in the striuct sample. Now, only thestruct sample_data
contains data, and the struct sample use the struct sample_data for storing
his own data.
This patch removes the 32 bits unsigned integer and the 32 bit signed
integer. It replaces these types by a unique type 64 bit signed.
This makes easy the usage of integer and clarify signed and unsigned use.
With the previous version, signed and unsigned are used ones in place of
others, and sometimes the converter loose the sign. For example, divisions
are processed with "unsigned", if one entry is negative, the result is
wrong.
Note that the integer pattern matching and dotted version pattern matching
are already working with signed 64 bits integer values.
There is one user-visible change : the "uint()" and "sint()" sample fetch
functions which used to return a constant integer have been replaced with
a new more natural, unified "int()" function. These functions were only
introduced in the latest 1.6-dev2 so there's no impact on regular
deployments.
This patch removes the structs "session", "stream" and "proxy" from
the sample-fetches and converters function prototypes.
This permits to remove some weight in the prototype call.
The auto-forwarding mechanism in case no analyser is set is generic
to the streams. Also the timeouts on the client side are better preset
in the stream initialization as well.
The frontend is generic and does not depend on a file descriptor,
so applying some socket options to the incoming fd is not its role.
Let's move the setsockopt() calls earlier in session_accept_fd()
where others are done as well.
This function was specified as being able to return 3 states, which had
repercussions to the stream accept function. It was used at the time
when the frontend would do the monitoring itself. This is not the case
anymore, so let's simplify this.
Many such function need a session, and till now they used to dereference
the stream. Once we remove the stream from the embryonic session, this
will not be possible anymore.
So as of now, sample fetch functions will be called with this :
- sess = NULL, strm = NULL : never
- sess = valid, strm = NULL : tcp-req connection
- sess = valid, strm = valid, strm->txn = NULL : tcp-req content
- sess = valid, strm = valid, strm->txn = valid : http-req / http-res
All of them can now retrieve the HTTP transaction *if it exists* from
the stream and be sure to get NULL there when called with an embryonic
session.
The patch is a bit large because many locations were touched (all fetch
functions had to have their prototype adjusted). The opportunity was
taken to also uniformize the call names (the stream is now always "strm"
instead of "l4") and to fix indent where it was broken. This way when
we later introduce the session here there will be less confusion.
Now this one is dynamically allocated. It means that 280 bytes of memory
are saved per TCP stream, but more importantly that it will become
possible to remove the l7 pointer from fetches and converters since
it will be deduced from the stream and will support being null.
A lot of care was taken because it's easy to forget a test somewhere,
and the previous code used to always trust s->txn for being valid, but
all places seem to have been visited.
All HTTP fetch functions check the txn first so we shouldn't have any
issue there even when called from TCP. When branching from a TCP frontend
to an HTTP backend, the txn is properly allocated at the same time as the
hdr_idx.
The header captures are now general purpose captures since tcp rules
can use them to capture various contents. That removes a dependency
on http_txn that appeared in some sample fetch functions and in the
order by which captures and http_txn were allocated.
Interestingly the reset of the header captures were done at too many
places as http_init_txn() used to do it while it was done previously
in every call place.
When s->si[0].end was dereferenced as a connection or anything in
order to retrieve information about the originating session, we'll
now use sess->origin instead so that when we have to chain multiple
streams in HTTP/2, we'll keep accessing the same origin.
Just like for the listener, the frontend is session-wide so let's move
it to the session. There are a lot of places which were changed but the
changes are minimal in fact.
With HTTP/2, we'll have to support multiplexed streams. A stream is in
fact the largest part of what we currently call a session, it has buffers,
logs, etc.
In order to catch any error, this commit removes any reference to the
struct session and tries to rename most "session" occurrences in function
names to "stream" and "sess" to "strm" when that's related to a session.
The files stream.{c,h} were added and session.{c,h} removed.
The session will be reintroduced later and a few parts of the stream
will progressively be moved overthere. It will more or less contain
only what we need in an embryonic session.
Sample fetch functions and converters will have to change a bit so
that they'll use an L5 (session) instead of what's currently called
"L4" which is in fact L6 for now.
Once all changes are completed, we should see approximately this :
L7 - http_txn
L6 - stream
L5 - session
L4 - connection | applet
There will be at most one http_txn per stream, and a same session will
possibly be referenced by multiple streams. A connection will point to
a session and to a stream. The session will hold all the information
we need to keep even when we don't yet have a stream.
Some more cleanup is needed because some code was already far from
being clean. The server queue management still refers to sessions at
many places while comments talk about connections. This will have to
be cleaned up once we have a server-side connection pool manager.
Stream flags "SN_*" still need to be renamed, it doesn't seem like
any of them will need to move to the session.
The channels were pointers to outside structs and this is not needed
anymore since the buffers have moved, but this complicates operations.
Move them back into the session so that both channels and stream interfaces
are always allocated for a session. Some places (some early sample fetch
functions) used to validate that a channel was NULL prior to dereferencing
it. Now instead we check if chn->buf is NULL and we force it to remain NULL
until the channel is initialized.
Denys Fedoryshchenko reported and diagnosed a nasty bug caused by TCP
captures, introduced in late 1.5-dev by commit 18bf01e ("MEDIUM: tcp:
add a new tcp-request capture directive"). The problem is that we're
using the array of capture pointers initially designed for HTTP usage
only, and that this array was only reset when starting to process an
HTTP request. In a tcp-only frontend, the pointers are not reset, and
if the capture pool is shared, we can very well point to whatever other
memory location, resulting in random crashes when tcp-request content
captures are processed.
The fix simply consists in initializing these pointers when the pools
are prepared.
A workaround for existing versions consists in either disabling TCP
captures in tcp-only frontends, or in forcing the frontends to work in
HTTP mode.
Thanks to Denys for the amount of testing and detailed reports.
This fix must be backported to 1.5.
Similar to previous patches, HTTP header captures are performed when
a TCP frontend switches to an HTTP backend, but are not possible to
report. So let's relax the check to explicitly allow them to be present
in TCP frontends.
Right now we see many places doing their own setsockopt(SO_LINGER).
Better only do it just before the close() in fd_delete(). For this
we add a new flag on the file descriptor, indicating if it's safe or
not to linger. If not (eg: after a connect()), then the setsockopt()
call is automatically performed before a close().
The flag automatically turns to safe when receiving a read0.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to ignore unwanted function returns in
debug code with gcc. Now even when you try to work around it, it suggests a
way to write your code differently. For example :
src/frontend.c:187:65: warning: if statement has empty body [-Wempty-body]
if (write(1, trash.str, trash.len) < 0) /* shut gcc warning */;
^
src/frontend.c:187:65: note: put the semicolon on a separate line to silence this warning
1 warning generated.
This is totally unacceptable, this code already had to be written this way
to shut it up in earlier versions. And now it comments the form ? What's the
purpose of the C language if you can't write anymore the code that does what
you want ?
Emeric proposed to just keep a global variable to drain such useless results
so that gcc stops complaining all the time it believes people who write code
are monkeys. The solution is acceptable because the useless assignment is done
only in debug code so it will not impact performance. This patch implements
this, until gcc becomes even "smarter" to detect that we tried to cheat.
The connection will only remain there as a pre-allocated entity whose
goal is to be placed in ->end when establishing an outgoing connection.
All connection initialization can be made on this connection, but all
information retrieved should be applied to the end point only.
This change is huge because there were many users of si->conn. Now the
only users are those who initialize the new connection. The difficulty
appears in a few places such as backend.c, proto_http.c, peers.c where
si->conn is used to hold the connection's target address before assigning
the connection to the stream interface. This is why we have to keep
si->conn for now. A future improvement might consist in dynamically
allocating the connection when it is needed.
