Implement a way to display the running acme tasks over the CLI.
It currently only displays a "Running" status with the certificate name
and the acme section from the configuration.
The displayed running tasks are limited to the size of a buffer for now,
it will require a backref list later to be called multiple times to
resume the list.
Default values for hold directive (resolver context) used to be documented
but this was lost when the keyword description was reworked in 24b319b
("Default value is 10s for "valid", 0s for "obsolete" and 30s for
others.")
Restoring the part that describes the default value.
It may be backported to all stable versions with 24b319b
The stateless mode which was documented previously in the ACME example
is not convenient for all use cases.
First, when HAProxy generates the account key itself, you wouldn't be
able to put the thumbprint in the configuration, so you will have to get
the thumbprint and then reload.
Second, in the case you are using multiple account key, there are
multiple thumbprint, and it's not easy to know which one you want to use
when responding to the challenger.
This patch allows to configure a map in the acme section, which will be
filled by the acme task with the token corresponding to the challenge,
as the key, and the thumbprint as the value. This way it's easy to reply
the right thumbprint.
Example:
http-request return status 200 content-type text/plain lf-string "%[path,field(-1,/)].%[path,field(-1,/),map(virt@acme)]\n" if { path_beg '/.well-known/acme-challenge/' }
Define a new settings tune.quic.frontend.max-tot-window. It contains a
size argument which can be used to set a limit on the sum of all QUIC
connections congestion window. This is applied both on
quic_cc_path_set() and quic_cc_path_inc().
Note that this limitation cannot reduce a congestion window more than
the minimal limit which is set to 2 datagrams.
TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT is very convenient as it indicates when to report
EAGAIN on the sending side. It takes a margin on top of the estimated
window, meaning that it's no longer needed to store too many data in
socket buffers. Instead there's just enough to fill the send window
and a little bit of margin to cover the scheduling time to restart
sending. Experiments on a 100ms network have shown a 10-fold reduction
in the memory used by socket buffers by just setting this value to
tune.bufsize, without noticing any performance degradation. Theoretically
the responsiveness on multiplexed protocols such as H2 should also be
improved.
log-forward "host" option may be confusing because we often mention the
host field when talking about syslog RFC3164 or RFC5424 messages, but
neither rfc actually define "host" field. In fact, everywhere we used
"host field" we actually meant "hostname field" as documented in RFC5424.
This was a language abuse on our side.
In this patch we replace "host" with "hostname" where relevant in the
documentation to prevent confusion.
Thanks to Nick Ramirez for having reported the issue.
Nick Ramirez reported that the ACME paragraph (3.13) caused a rendering
issue where simple text was rendered as a directive. This was caused
by the use of unescaped <name> which confuses dconv.
Let's escape <name> by putting quotes around it to prevent the rendering
issue.
No backport needed.

- BUG/MINOR: master/cli: only parse the '@@' prefix on complete lines
- MINOR: resolvers: use the runtime IPv6 status instead of boot time one
Instead of always having to force IPv4 or IPv6, let's now also offer
"auto" which will only enable IPv6 if the system has a default gateway
for it. This means that properly configured dual-stack systems will
default to "ipv4,ipv6" while those lacking a gateway will only use
"ipv4". Note that no real connectivity test is performed, so firewalled
systems may still get it wrong and might prefer to rely on a manual
"ipv4" assignment.
By default, DNS resolvers accept both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. This can be
influenced by the "resolve-prefer" keywords on server lines as well as the
family argument to the "do-resolve" action, but that is only a preference,
which does not block the other family from being used when it's alone. In
some environments where dual-stack is not usable, stumbling on an unreachable
IPv6-only DNS record can cause significant trouble as it will replace a
previous IPv4 one which would possibly have continued to work till next
request. The "dns-accept-family" global option permits to enforce usage of
only one (or both) address families. The argument is a comma-delimited list
of the following words:
- "ipv4": query and accept IPv4 addresses ("A" records)
- "ipv6": query and accept IPv6 addresses ("AAAA" records)
When a single family is used, no request will be sent to resolvers for the
other family, and any response for the othe family will be ignored. The
default value is "ipv4,ipv6", which effectively enables both families.
The 'pause' HTTP action can now be used to suspend for a moment the message
analysis. A timeout, expressed in milliseconds using a time-format
parameter, or an expression can be used. If an expression is used, errors
and invalid values are ignored.
Internally, the action will set the analysis expiration date on the
corresponding channel to the configured value and it will yield while it is
not expired.
The 'pause' action is available for 'http-request' and 'http-response'
rules.
In RFC9110, it is stated that trailers could be merged with the
headers. While it should be performed with a speicial care, it may be a
problem for some applications. To avoid any trouble with such applications,
two new options were added to drop trailers during the message forwarding.
On the backend, "http-drop-request-trailers" option can be enabled to drop
trailers from the requests before sending them to the server. And on the
frontend, "http-drop-response-trailers" option can be enabled to drop
trailers from the responses before sending them to the client. The options
can be defined in defaults sections and disabled with "no" keyword.
This patch should fix the issue #2930.

This commit extends MUX H2 connection reversal step to properly take
into account the new idle-ping feature. It first ensures that h2c task
is properly instantiated/freed depending now on both timers and
idle-ping configuration. Also, h2c_update_timeout() is now called
instead of manually requeuing the task, which ensures the proper timer
value is selected depending on the new connection side.
This commit is the counterpart of the previous one, adapted on the
frontend side. "idle-ping" is added as keyword to bind lines, to be able
to refresh client timeout of idle frontend connections.
H2 MUX behavior remains similar as the previous patch. The only
significant change is in h2c_update_timeout(), as idle-ping is now taken
into account also for frontend connection. The calculated value is
compared with http-request/http-keep-alive timeout value. The shorter
delay is then used as expired date. As hr/ka timeout are based on
idle_start, this allows to run them in parallel with an idle-ping timer.
This commit implements support for idle-ping on the backend side. First,
a new server keyword "idle-ping" is defined in configuration parsing. It
is used to set the corresponding new server member.
The second part of this commit implements idle-ping support on H2 MUX. A
new inlined function conn_idle_ping() is defined to access connection
idle-ping value. Two new connection flags are defined H2_CF_IDL_PING and
H2_CF_IDL_PING_SENT. The first one is set for idle connections via
h2c_update_timeout().
On h2_timeout_task() handler, if first flag is set, instead of releasing
the connection as before, the second flag is set and tasklet is
scheduled. As both flags are now set, h2_process_mux() will proceed to
PING emission. The timer has also been rearmed to the idle-ping value.
If a PING ACK is received before next timeout, connection timer is
refreshed. Else, the connection is released, as with timer expiration.
Also of importance, special care is needed when a backend connection is
going to idle. In this case, idle-ping timer must be rearmed. Thus a new
invokation of h2c_update_timeout() is performed on h2_detach().
These counters can have a noticeable cost on large machines, though not
dramatic. There's no single good choice to keep them enabled or disabled.
This commit adds multiple choices:
- DEBUG_COUNTERS set to 2 will automatically enable them by default, while
1 will disable them by default
- the global "debug.counters on/off" will allow to change the setting at
boot, regardless of DEBUG_COUNTERS as long as it was at least 1.
- the CLI "debug counters on/off" will also allow to change the value at
run time, allowing to observe a phenomenon while it's happening, or to
disable counters if it's suspected that their cost is too high
Finally, the "debug counters" command will append "(stopped)" at the end
of the CNT lines when these counters are stopped.
Not that the whole mechanism would easily support being extended to all
counter types by specifying the types to apply to, but it doesn't seem
useful at all and would require the user to also type "cnt" on debug
lines. This may easily be changed in the future if it's found relevant.

This commit is a direct follow-up of the previous one. It defines a new
server keyword check-pool-conn-name. It is used as the default value for
the name parameter of idle connection hash generation.
Its behavior is similar to server keyword pool-conn-name, but reserved
for checks reuse. If check-pool-conn-name is set, it is used in priority
to match a connection for reuse. If unset, a fallback is performed on
check-sni.
Without check-reuse-pool, it is impossible to perform check on server
using @rhttp protocol. This is due to the inherent nature of the
protocol which does not implement an active connect method.
Thus, ensure that check-reuse-pool is always set when a reverse HTTP
server is declared. This reduces server configuration and should prevent
any omission. Note that it is still require to add "check" server
keyword so activate server checks.
Replace the "crt" keyword from the frontend section with a "ssl-f-use"
keyword, "crt" could be ambigous in case we don't want to put a
certificate filename.

Define a new server keyword check-reuse-pool, and its counterpart with a
"no" prefix. For the moment, only parsing is implemented. The real
behavior adjustment will be implemented in the next patch.
As reported by Uku Sõrmus in GitHub issue #2917, two "tcp-request" rules
in an example were mistakenly missing the "content" hook, rendering them
invalid.
This can be backported.
This adds "group-by-{2,3,4}-clusters", which, as its name implies,
create one thread group per X clusters. This can be useful when CPUs
are split into too small clusters, as well as when the total number
of assigned cores is not even between the clusters, to try to spread
the load between less different ones.
When using hash-based load balancing, requests are always assigned to
the server corresponding to the hash bucket for the balancing key,
without taking maxconn or maxqueue into account, unlike in other load
balancing methods like 'first'. This adds a new backend directive that
can be used to take maxconn and possibly maxqueue in that context. This
can be used when hashing is desired to achieve cache locality, but
sending requests to a different server is preferable to queuing for a
long time or failing requests when the initial server is saturated.
By default, affinity is preserved as was the case previously. When
'hash-preserve-affinity' is set to 'maxqueue', servers are considered
successively in the order of the hash ring until a server that does not
have a full queue is found.
When 'maxconn' is set on a server, queueing cannot be disabled, as
'maxqueue=0' means unlimited. To support picking a different server
when a server is at 'maxconn' irrespective of the queue,
'hash-preserve-affinity' can be set to 'maxconn'.
Define a new global configuration tune.quic.frontend.max-data. This
allows users to explicitely set the value for the corresponding QUIC TP
initial-max-data, with direct impact on haproxy memory consumption.

This cpu policy keeps the smallest CPU cluster. This can
be used to limit the resource usage to the strict minimum
that still delivers decent performance, for example to
try to further reduce power consumption or minimize the
number of cores needed on some rented systems for a
sidecar setup, in order to scale the system down more
easily. Note that if a single cluster is present, it
will still be fully used.
When started on a 64-core EPYC gen3, it uses only one CCX
with 8 cores and 16 threads, all in the same group.
This cpu policy tries to evict performant core clusters and only
focuses on efficiency-oriented ones. On an intel i9-14900k, we can
get 525k rps using 8 performance cores, versus 405k when using all
24 efficiency cores. In some cases the power savings might be more
desirable (e.g. scalability tests on a developer's laptop), or the
performance cores might be better suited for another component
(application or security component).
This cpu policy tries to evict efficient core clusters and only
focuses on performance-oriented ones. On an intel i9-14900k, we can
get 525k rps using only 8 cores this way, versus 594k when using all
24 cores. The gains from using all these codes are not significant
enough to waste them on this. Also these cores can be much slower
at doing SSL handshakes so it can make sense to evict them. Better
keep the efficiency cores for network interrupts for example.
Also, on a developer's machine it can be convenient to keep all these
cores for the local tasks and extra tools (load generators etc).
This policy forms thread groups from the CPU clusters, and bind all the
threads in them to all the CPUs of the cluster. This is recommended on
system with bad inter-CCX latencies. It was shown to simply triple the
performance with queuing on a 64-core EPYC without having to manually
assign the cores with cpu-map.
This now turns the cpu-policy to "first-usable-node" by default, so that
we preserve the current default behavior consisting in binding to the
first node if nothing was forced. If a second node is found,
global.nbthread is set and the previous code will be skipped.
