With "log global" line, the global list of loggers are copied into the proxy's
struct. The list coming from the default section is also copied when a frontend
or a backend section is parsed. So it is possible to have duplicate entries in
the proxy's list. For instance, with this following config, all messages will be
logged twice:
global
log 127.0.0.1 local0 debug
daemon
defaults
mode http
log global
option httplog
frontend front-http
log global
bind *:8888
default_backend back-http
backend back-http
server www 127.0.0.1:8000
Now, the function parse_logsrv should be used to parse a "log" line. This
function will update the list of loggers passed in argument. It can release all
log servers when "no log" line was parsed (by the caller) or it can parse "log
global" or "log <address> ... " lines. It takes care of checking the caller
context (global or not) to prohibit "log global" usage in the global section.
This is a recurring pain when using certain unix domain sockets or when
sending to temporarily unroutable addresses, if the process remains in
the foreground, the console is full of error which it's impossible to
do anything about. It's even worse when the process is remote, or when
run from a serial console which will slow the whole process down. Let's
send them only once now to warn about a possible config issue, and not
pollute the system nor slow everything down.
A log socket (UDP or UNIX) is opened by the master during its startup, when the
first log message is sent. So, to prevent FD leaks, we must ensure we correctly
close it during a reload. By setting FD_CLOEXEC bit on it, we are sure it will
be automatically closed it during a reload.
This patch must be backported in 1.8.
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.
There was a flaw in the way the threads was created. the main one was just used
to create all the others and just wait to exit. Now, it is used to run a poll
loop. So we only create nbthread-1 threads.
This also fixes a bug about the compression filter when there is only 1 thread
(nbthread == 1 or no threads support). The bug was in the way thread-local
resources was initialized. per-thread init/deinit callbacks were never called
for the main process. So, with nthread set to 1, some buffers remained
uninitialized.
Now, each proxy contains a lock that must be used when necessary to protect
it. Moreover, all proxy's counters are now updated using atomic operations.
log buffers and static variables used in log functions are now thread-local. So
there is no need to lock anything to log messages. Moreover, per-thread
init/deinit functions are now used to initialize these buffers.
Because we can't always display the standard error messages when HAProxy is
started, all alerts and warnings emitted during the startup will now be saved in
a buffer. It can also be handy to store these messages just in case you
missed something during the startup
To implement this feature, Alert and Warning functions now relies on
display_message. The difference is just on conditions to call this function and
it remains unchanged. In display_message, if MODE_STARTING flag is set, we save
the message.
Now, we use init_log_buffers and deinit_log_buffers to, respectively, initialize
and deinitialize log buffers used for syslog messages.
These functions have been introduced to be used by threads, to deal with
thread-local log buffers.
Mathias Weiersmueller reported an interesting issue with logs which Lukas
diagnosed as dating back from commit 9b061e332 (1.5-dev9). When front
connection information (ip, port) are logged in TCP mode and the log is
emitted at the end of the connection (eg: because %B or any log tag
requiring LW_BYTES is set), the log is emitted after the connection is
closed, so the address and ports cannot be retrieved anymore.
It could be argued that we'd make a special case of these to immediatly
retrieve the source and destination addresses from the connection, but it
seems cleaner to simply pin the front connection, marking it "tracked" by
adding the LW_XPRT flag to mention that we'll need some of these elements
at the last moment. Only LW_FRTIP and LW_CLIP are affected. Note that after
this change, LW_FRTIP could simply be removed as it's not used anywhere.
Note that the problem doesn't happen when using %[src] or %[dst] since
all sample expressions set LW_XPRT.
This must be backported to 1.7, 1.6 and 1.5.
Now we exclusively use xprt_get(XPRT_RAW) instead of &raw_sock or
xprt_get(XPRT_SSL) for &ssl_sock. This removes a bunch of #ifdef and
include spread over a number of location including backend, cfgparse,
checks, cli, hlua, log, server and session.
A mistake was made when the socket layer was cut into proto and
transport, the transport was attached to the listener while all
listeners in a single "bind" line always have exactly the same
transport. It doesn't seem obvious but this is the reason why there
are so many #ifdefs USE_OPENSSL in cfgparse : a lot of operations
have to be open-coded because cfgparse only manipulates bind_conf
and we don't have the information of the transport layer here.
Very little code makes use of the transport layer, mainly session
setup and log. These places can afford an extra pointer indirection
(the listener points to the bind_conf). This change is thus very small,
it saves a little bit of memory (8B per listener) and makes the code
more flexible.
The function log format emit its own error message using Alert(). This
patch replaces this behavior and uses the standard HAProxy error system
(with memprintf).
The benefits are:
- cleaning the log system
- the logformat can ignore the caller (actually the caller must set
a flag designing the caller function).
- Make the usage of the logformat function easy for future components.
Until now, the function parse_logformat_string() never fails. It
send warnings when it parses bad format, and returns expression in
best effort.
This patch replaces warnings by alert and returns a fail code.
Maybe the warning mode is designed for a compatibility with old
configuration versions. If it is the case, now this compatibility
is broken.
[wt: no, the reason is that an alert must cause a startup failure,
but this will be OK with next patch]
The log-format function parse_logformat_string() takes file and line
for building parsing logs. These two parameters are embedded in the
struct proxy curproxy, which is the current parsing context.
This patch removes these two unused arguments.
This patch replace the successful return code from 0 to 1. The
error code is replaced from 1 to 0.
The return code of this function is actually unused, so this
patch cannot modify the behaviour.

SPOE makes possible the communication with external components to retrieve some
info using an in-house binary protocol, the Stream Processing Offload Protocol
(SPOP). In the long term, its aim is to allow any kind of offloading on the
streams. This first version, besides being experimental, won't do lot of
things. The most important today is to validate the protocol design and lay the
foundations of what will, one day, be a full offload engine for the stream
processing.
So, for now, the SPOE can offload the stream processing before "tcp-request
content", "tcp-response content", "http-request" and "http-response" rules. And
it only supports variables creation/suppression. But, in spite of these limited
features, we can easily imagine to implement a SSO solution, an ip reputation
service or an ip geolocation service.
Internally, the SPOE is implemented as a filter. So, to use it, you must use
following line in a proxy proxy section:
frontend my-front
...
filter spoe [engine <name>] config <file>
...
It uses its own configuration file to keep the HAProxy configuration clean. It
is also a easy way to disable it by commenting out the filter line.
See "doc/SPOE.txt" for all details about the SPOE configuration.
Tq is the time between the instant the connection is accepted and a
complete valid request is received. This time includes the handshake
(SSL / Proxy-Protocol), the idle when the browser does preconnect and
the request reception.
This patch decomposes %Tq in 3 measurements names %Th, %Ti, and %TR
which returns respectively the handshake time, the idle time and the
duration of valid request reception. It also adds %Ta which reports
the request's active time, which is the total time without %Th nor %Ti.
It replaces %Tt as the total time, reporting accurate measurements for
HTTP persistent connections.
%Th is avalaible for TCP and HTTP sessions, %Ti, %TR and %Ta are only
avalaible for HTTP connections.
In addition to this, we have new timestamps %tr, %trg and %trl, which
log the date of start of receipt of the request, respectively in the
default format, in GMT time and in local time (by analogy with %t, %T
and %Tl). All of them are obviously only available for HTTP. These values
are more relevant as they more accurately represent the request date
without being skewed by a browser's preconnect nor a keep-alive idle
time.
The HTTP log format and the CLF log format have been modified to
use %tr, %TR, and %Ta respectively instead of %t, %Tq and %Tt. This
way the default log formats now produce the expected output for users
who don't want to manually fiddle with the log-format directive.
Example with the following log-format :
log-format "%ci:%cp [%tr] %ft %b/%s h=%Th/i=%Ti/R=%TR/w=%Tw/c=%Tc/r=%Tr/a=%Ta/t=%Tt %ST %B %CC %CS %tsc %ac/%fc/%bc/%sc/%rc %sq/%bq %hr %hs %{+Q}r"
The request was sent by hand using "openssl s_client -connect" :
Aug 23 14:43:20 haproxy[25446]: 127.0.0.1:45636 [23/Aug/2016:14:43:20.221] test~ test/test h=6/i=2375/R=261/w=0/c=1/r=0/a=262/t=2643 200 145 - - ---- 1/1/0/0/0 0/0 "GET / HTTP/1.1"
=> 6 ms of SSL handshake, 2375 waiting before sending the first char (in
fact the time to type the first line), 261 ms before the end of the request,
no time spent in queue, 1 ms spend connecting to the server, immediate
response, total active time for this request = 262ms. Total time from accept
to close : 2643 ms.
The timing now decomposes like this :
first request 2nd request
|<-------------------------------->|<-------------- ...
t tr t tr ...
---|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|--
: Th Ti TR Tw Tc Tr Td : Ti ...
:<---- Tq ---->: :

The following commit merged into 1.6-dev6 broke the build on OpenBSD :
609ac2a ("MEDIUM: log: replace sendto() with sendmsg() in __send_log()")
Including sys/uio.h is enough to fix this. This fix needs to be backported
to 1.6.
In function lf_text_len(), we used escape_chunk() to escape special
characters. There could be a problem if len is greater than the real src
string length (zero-terminated), eg. when calling lf_text_len() from
lf_text().
As suggested by Pavlos, it's too bad that we didn't have a %Td log
format tag given that there are a few mentions of Td corresponding
to the data transmission time already in the doc, so this is now done.
Just like the other specifiers, we report -1 if the connection failed
before reaching the data transmission state.
Typo was introduced in 57bc891 ("BUG/MEDIUM: log: fix risk of
segfault when logging HTTP fields in TCP mode") which inverted the
condition in the test and caused <BADREQ> to be logged when using
%HP.

David Torgerson faced an issue when using HTTP fields in log-format in TCP
sections. The txn is dereferenced while it's null, resulting in a crash of
the process. Such configurations are invalid and a warning is emitted, but
nevertheless the process must not crash. As found by Lukas Tribus, this is
a side effect of the split between the stream and the HTTP transaction that
happened in 1.6, making it possible to have txn==NULL there.
The fix consists in checking that txn is valid before using it. Fortunately
it's easy since almost all places already used to check for the existence
of a field (eg: txn->uri).
This patch should be backported to 1.6.
Instead of repeating the type of the LHS argument (sizeof(struct ...))
in calls to malloc/calloc, we directly use the pointer
name (sizeof(*...)). The following Coccinelle patch was used:
@@
type T;
T *x;
@@
x = malloc(
- sizeof(T)
+ sizeof(*x)
)
@@
type T;
T *x;
@@
x = calloc(1,
- sizeof(T)
+ sizeof(*x)
)
When the LHS is not just a variable name, no change is made. Moreover,
the following patch was used to ensure that "1" is consistently used as
a first argument of calloc, not the last one:

The strftime() function can call tzset() internally on some platforms.
When haproxy is chrooted, the /etc/localtime file is not found, and some
implementations will clobber the content of the current timezone.
The GMT offset is computed by diffing the times returned by gmtime_r() and
localtime_r(). These variants are guaranteed to not call tzset() and were
already used in haproxy while chrooted, so they should be safe.
This patch must be backported to 1.6 and 1.5.
GMT offset used in local time formats was computed at startup, but was not updated when DST status changed while running.
For example these two RFC5424 syslog traces where emitted 5 seconds apart, just before and after DST changed:
<14>1 2016-03-27T01:59:58+01:00 bunch-VirtualBox haproxy 2098 - - Connect ...
<14>1 2016-03-27T03:00:03+01:00 bunch-VirtualBox haproxy 2098 - - Connect ...
It looked like they were emitted more than 1 hour apart, unlike with the fix:
<14>1 2016-03-27T01:59:58+01:00 bunch-VirtualBox haproxy 3381 - - Connect ...
<14>1 2016-03-27T03:00:03+02:00 bunch-VirtualBox haproxy 3381 - - Connect ...
This patch should be backported to 1.6 and partially to 1.5 (no fix needed in log.c).
The +E mode escapes characters '"', '\' and ']' with '\' as prefix. It
mostly makes sense to use it in the RFC5424 structured-data log formats.
Example:
log-format-sd %{+Q,+E}o\ [exampleSDID@1234\ header=%[capture.req.hdr(0)]]
Michael Ezzell reported a bug causing haproxy to segfault during startup
when trying to send syslog message from Lua. The function __send_log() can
be called with *p that is NULL and/or when the configuration is not fully
parsed, as is the case with Lua.
This patch fixes this problem by using individual vectors instead of the
pre-generated strings log_htp and log_htp_rfc5424.
Also, this patch fixes a problem causing haproxy to write the wrong pid in
the logs -- the log_htp(_rfc5424) strings were generated at the haproxy
start, but "pid" value would be changed after haproxy is started in
daemon/systemd mode.
This patch adds a new RFC5424-specific log-format for the structured-data
that is automatically send by __send_log() when the sender is in RFC5424
mode.
A new statement "log-format-sd" should be used in order to set log-format
for the structured-data part in RFC5424 formatted syslog messages.
Example:
log-format-sd [exampleSDID@1234\ bytes=\"%B\"\ status=\"%ST\"]
The function __send_log() iterates over senders and passes the header as
the first vector to sendmsg(), thus it can send a logger-specific header
in each message.
A new logger arguments "format rfc5424" should be used in order to enable
RFC5424 header format. For example:
log 10.2.3.4:1234 len 2048 format rfc5424 local2 info
At the moment we have to call snprintf() for every log line just to
rebuild a constant. Thanks to sendmsg(), we send the message in 3 parts:
time-based header, proxy-specific hostname+log-tag+pid, session-specific
message.
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.
Since sample fetches are not always available in the response phase,
this patch implements %HQ such that:
GET /foo?bar=baz HTTP/1.0
...would be logged as:
?bar=baz
