The notion of capabilities has been added to the proxy so that we
know whether a proxy supports frontend, backend, or rulesets. Given
this, some parameters are optionnal, some are ignored with a warning
and others are forbidden. It is now possible to write valid two level
configs without binding to dummy address/ports.
The nbconn attribute in the proxies was not relevant anymore because
a frontend A may use backend B and both of them must account for their
respective connections. For this reason, there now are two separate
counters for frontend and backend connections.
The stats page has been updated to reflect the backend, but a separate
line entry for the frontend with error counts would be good.
Note that as of now, beconn may be higher than maxconn, because maxconn
applies to the frontend, while beconn may be increased due to sessions
passed from another frontend.
The files are now stored under :
- include/haproxy for the generic includes
- include/types.h for the structures needed within prototypes
- include/proto.h for function prototypes and inline functions
- src/*.c for the C files
Most include files are now covered by LGPL. A last move still needs
to be done to put inline functions under GPL and not LGPL.
Version has been set to 1.3.0 in the code but some control still
needs to be done before releasing.
