On freebsd, the macro LIST_PREV already exists in the header file
<sys/queue.h>, and this makes a build error.
This patch removes the macros before declaring it. This ensure
that the error doesn't occurs.
When DEBUG_MEMORY_POOLS is used, we now use the link pointer at the end
of the pool to store a pointer to the pool, and to control it during
pool_free2() in order to serve four purposes :
- at any instant we can know what pool an object was allocated from
when examining memory, hence how we should possibly decode it ;
- it serves to detect double free when they happen, as the pointer
cannot be valid after the element is linked into the pool ;
- it serves to detect if an element is released in the wrong pool ;
- it serves as a canary, to detect if some buffers experienced an
overflow before being release.
All these elements will definitely help better troubleshoot strange
situations, or at least confirm that certain conditions did not happen.
When debugging a core file, it's sometimes convenient to be able to
visit the released entries in the pools (typically last released
session). Unfortunately the first bytes of these entries are destroyed
by the link elements of the pool. And of course, most structures have
their most accessed elements at the beginning of the structure (typically
flags). Let's add a build-time option DEBUG_MEMORY_POOLS which allocates
an extra pointer in each pool to put the link at the end of each pool
item instead of the beginning.
Sometimes analysing a core file isn't easy due to shared memory pools.
Let's add a build option to disable this. It's not enabled by default,
it could be backported to older versions.
I would like to contribute the following fix to enable the Linux s390x
platform. The fix was built against today's git master. I've attached the
patch for review. Depending on your buildbot/jenkins/? requirements I can
set up a virtual machine for automated building/testing of the package in
this environment.
htonll and ntohll were defined in 5b4dd683cb but on osx they are already
defined in sys/_endian.h. So, we check if they are defined before
declaring them.
[wt: no backport needed]
When debugging an issue, sometimes it can be useful to be able to use
byte 0 to poison memory areas, resulting in the same effect as a calloc().
This patch changes the default mem_poison_byte to -1 to disable it so that
all positive values are usable.
A new function introduced meant to be called during general deinit phase.
During the configuration parsing, the section entries are all allocated.
This new function free them.
The tune.maxrewrite parameter used to be pre-initialized to half of
the buffer size since the very early days when buffers were very small.
It has grown to absurdly large values over the years to reach 8kB for a
16kB buffer. This prevents large requests from being accepted, which is
the opposite of the initial goal.
Many users fix it to 1024 which is already quite large for header
addition.
So let's change the default setting policy :
- pre-initialize it to 1024
- let the user tweak it
- in any case, limit it to tune.bufsize / 2
This results in 15kB usable to buffer HTTP messages instead of 8kB, and
doesn't affect existing configurations which already force it.
The function does a bunch of things among which resolving environment
variables, skipping address family specifiers and trimming port ranges.
It is the only one which sees the complete host name before trying to
resolve it. The DNS resolving code needs to know the original hostname,
so we modify this function to optionally provide it to the caller.
Note that the function itself doesn't know if the host part was a host
or an address, but str2ip() knows that and can be asked not to try to
resolve. So we first try to parse the address without resolving and
try again with resolving enabled. This way we know if the address is
explicit or needs some kind of resolution.
These are the 64-bit equivalent of htonl() and ntohl(). They're a bit
tricky in order to avoid expensive operations.
The principle consists in letting the compiler detect we're playing
with a union and simplify most or all operations. The asm-optimized
htonl() version involving bswap (x86) / rev (arm) / other is a single
operation on little endian, or a NOP on big-endian. In both cases,
this lets the compiler "see" that we're rebuilding a 64-bit word from
two 32-bit quantities that fit into a 32-bit register. In big endian,
the whole code is optimized out. In little endian, with a decent compiler,
a few bswap and 2 shifts are left, which is the minimum acceptable.
This patch adds 3 functions for 64 bit integer conversion.
* lltoa_r : converts signed 64 bit integer to string
* read_uint64 : converts from string to signed 64 bits integer with capping
* read_int64 : converts from string to unsigned 64 bits integer with capping
This is in order to avoid conflicting with NetBSD popcount* functions
since 6.x release, the final l to mentions the argument is a long like
NetBSD does.
This patch could be backported to 1.5 to fix the build issue there as well.
Since commit 65d805fd witch removes standard.h from compat.h some
values were not properly set on FreeBSD. This caused a segfault
at startup when smp_resolve_args is called.
As FreeBSD have IP_BINDANY, CONFIG_HAP_TRANSPARENT is define. This
cause struct conn_src to be extended with some fields. The size of
this structure was incorrect. Including netinet/in.h fix this issue.
While diving in code preprocessing, I found that limits.h was require
to properly set MAX_HOSTNAME_LEN, ULONG_MAX, USHRT_MAX and others
system limits on FreeBSD.
With this patch, it is possible to configure HAProxy to forge the SSL
certificate sent to a client using the SNI servername. We do it in the SNI
callback.
To enable this feature, you must pass following BIND options:
* ca-sign-file <FILE> : This is the PEM file containing the CA certitifacte and
the CA private key to create and sign server's certificates.
* (optionally) ca-sign-pass <PASS>: This is the CA private key passphrase, if
any.
* generate-certificates: Enable the dynamic generation of certificates for a
listener.
Because generating certificates is expensive, there is a LRU cache to store
them. Its size can be customized by setting the global parameter
'tune.ssl.ssl-ctx-cache-size'.
This function checks a string for using it in a CSV output format. If
the string contains one of the following four char <">, <,>, CR or LF,
the string is encapsulated between <"> and the <"> are escaped by a <"">
sequence.
The rounding by <"> is optionnal. It can be canceled, forced or the
function choose automatically the right way.
These ones were already obsoleted in 1.4, marked for removal in 1.5,
and not documented anymore. They used to emit warnings, and do still
require quite some code to stay in place. Let's remove them now.
The principle of this cache is to have a global cache for all pattern
matching operations which rely on lists (reg, sub, dir, dom, ...). The
input data, the expression and a random seed are used as a hashing key.
The cached entries contains a pointer to the expression and a revision
number for that expression so that we don't accidently used obsolete
data after a pattern update or a very unlikely hash collision.
Regarding the risk of collisions, 10k entries at 10k req/s mean 1% risk
of a collision after 60 years, that's already much less than the memory's
reliability in most machines and more durable than most admin's life
expectancy. A collision will result in a valid result to be returned
for a different entry from the same list. If this is not acceptable,
the cache can be disabled using tune.pattern.cache-size.
A test on a file containing 10k small regex showed that the regex
matching was limited to 6k/s instead of 70k with regular strings.
When enabling the LRU cache, the performance was back to 70k/s.
This one returns a timestamp, either the one from the CPU or from
gettimeofday() in 64-bit format. The purpose is to be able to compare
timestamps on various entities to make it easier to detect updates.
It can also be used for benchmarking in certain situations during
development.
The include file did not protect correctly against multiple inclusions,
as it didn't define the file name after checking for it. That's currently
harmless as the file is only included from .c but that could change.
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 function buffer_contig_space() returns the contiguous space avalaible
to add data (at the end of the input side) while the function
hlua_channel_send_yield() needs to insert data starting at p. Here we
introduce a new function bi_space_for_replace() which returns the amount
of space that can be inserted at the head of the input side with one of
the buffer_replace* functions.
This patch proposes a function that returns the space avalaible after buf->p.
Until now, the TLS ticket keys couldn't have been configured and
shared between multiple instances or multiple servers running HAproxy.
The result was that if a request got a TLS ticket from one instance/server
and it hits another one afterwards, it will have to go through the full
SSL handshake and negotation.
This patch enables adding a ticket file to the bind line, which will be
used for all SSL contexts created from that bind line. We can use the
same file on all instances or servers to mitigate this issue and have
consistent TLS tickets assigned. Clients will no longer have to negotiate
every time they change the handling process.

This function (and its sister regex_exec_match2()) abstract the regex
execution but make it impossible to pass flags to the regex engine.
Currently we don't use them but we'll need to support REG_NOTBOL soon
(to indicate that we're not at the beginning of a line). So let's add
support for this flag and update the API accordingly.
This function will be used to perform CRC32 computations. This one wa
loosely inspired from crc32b found here, and focuses on size and speed
at the same time :
http://www.hackersdelight.org/hdcodetxt/crc.c.txt
Much faster table-based versions exist but are pointless for our usage
here, this hash already sustains gigabit speed which is far faster than
what we'd ever need. Better preserve the CPU's cache instead.
If a memory size limit is enforced using "-n" on the command line and
one or both of maxconn / maxsslconn are not set, instead of using the
build-time values, haproxy now computes the number of sessions that can
be allocated depending on a number of parameters among which :
- global.maxconn (if set)
- global.maxsslconn (if set)
- maxzlibmem
- tune.ssl.cachesize
- presence of SSL in at least one frontend (bind lines)
- presence of SSL in at least one backend (server lines)
- tune.bufsize
- tune.cookie_len
The purpose is to ensure that not haproxy will not run out of memory
when maxing out all parameters. If neither maxconn nor maxsslconn are
used, it will consider that 100% of the sessions involve SSL on sides
where it's supported. That means that it will typically optimize maxconn
for SSL offloading or SSL bridging on all connections. This generally
means that the simple act of enabling SSL in a frontend or in a backend
will significantly reduce the global maxconn but in exchange of that, it
will guarantee that it will not fail.
All metrics may be enforced using #defines to accomodate variations in
SSL libraries or various allocation sizes.
An SSL connection takes some memory when it exists and during handshakes.
We measured up to 16kB for an established endpoint, and up to 76 extra kB
during a handshake. The SSL layer stores these values into the global
struct during initialization. If other SSL libs are used, it's easy to
change these values. Anyway they'll only be used as gross estimates in
order to guess the max number of SSL conns that can be established when
memory is constrained and the limit is not set.
This function's name was poorly chosen and is confusing to the point of
being suspiciously used at some places. The operations it does always
consider the ability to forward pending input data before receiving new
data. This is not obvious at all, especially at some places where it was
used when consuming outgoing data to know if the buffer has any chance
to ever get the missing data. The code needs to be re-audited with that
in mind. Care must be taken with existing code since the polarity of the
function was switched with the renaming.
Some users reported that the default max hostname length of 32 is too
short in some environments. This patch does two things :
- it relies on the system's max hostname length as found in MAXHOSTNAMELEN
if it is set. This is the most logical thing to do as the system libs
generally present the appropriate value supported by the system. This
value is 64 on Linux and 256 on Solaris, to give a few examples.
- otherwise it defaults to 64
It is still possible to override this value by defining MAX_HOSTNAME_LEN at
build time. After some observation time, this patch may be backported to
1.5 if it does not cause any build issue, as it is harmless and may help
some users.
We've already experimented with three wake up algorithms when releasing
buffers : the first naive one used to wake up far too many sessions,
causing many of them not to get any buffer. The second approach which
was still in use prior to this patch consisted in waking up either 1
or 2 sessions depending on the number of FDs we had released. And this
was still inaccurate. The third one tried to cover the accuracy issues
of the second and took into consideration the number of FDs the sessions
would be willing to use, but most of the time we ended up waking up too
many of them for nothing, or deadlocking by lack of buffers.
This patch completely removes the need to allocate two buffers at once.
Instead it splits allocations into critical and non-critical ones and
implements a reserve in the pool for this. The deadlock situation happens
when all buffers are be allocated for requests pending in a maxconn-limited
server queue, because then there's no more way to allocate buffers for
responses, and these responses are critical to release the servers's
connection in order to release the pending requests. In fact maxconn on
a server creates a dependence between sessions and particularly between
oldest session's responses and latest session's requests. Thus, it is
mandatory to get a free buffer for a response in order to release a
server connection which will permit to release a request buffer.
Since we definitely have non-symmetrical buffers, we need to implement
this logic in the buffer allocation mechanism. What this commit does is
implement a reserve of buffers which can only be allocated for responses
and that will never be allocated for requests. This is made possible by
the requester indicating how much margin it wants to leave after the
allocation succeeds. Thus it is a cooperative allocation mechanism : the
requester (process_session() in general) prefers not to get a buffer in
order to respect other's need for response buffers. The session management
code always knows if a buffer will be used for requests or responses, so
that is not difficult :
- either there's an applet on the initiator side and we really need
the request buffer (since currently the applet is called in the
context of the session)
- or we have a connection and we really need the response buffer (in
order to support building and sending an error message back)
This reserve ensures that we don't take all allocatable buffers for
requests waiting in a queue. The downside is that all the extra buffers
are really allocated to ensure they can be allocated. But with small
values it is not an issue.
With this change, we don't observe any more deadlocks even when running
with maxconn 1 on a server under severely constrained memory conditions.
The code becomes a bit tricky, it relies on the scheduler's run queue to
estimate how many sessions are already expected to run so that it doesn't
wake up everyone with too few resources. A better solution would probably
consist in having two queues, one for urgent requests and one for normal
requests. A failed allocation for a session dealing with an error, a
connection event, or the need for a response (or request when there's an
applet on the left) would go to the urgent request queue, while other
requests would go to the other queue. Urgent requests would be served
from 1 entry in the pool, while the regular ones would be served only
according to the reserve. Despite not yet having this, it works
remarkably well.
This mechanism is quite efficient, we don't perform too many wake up calls
anymore. For 1 million sessions elapsed during massive memory contention,
we observe about 4.5M calls to process_session() compared to 4.0M without
memory constraints. Previously we used to observe up to 16M calls, which
rougly means 12M failures.
During a test run under high memory constraints (limit enforced to 27 MB
instead of the 58 MB normally needed), performance used to drop by 53% prior
to this patch. Now with this patch instead it *increases* by about 1.5%.
The best effect of this change is that by limiting the memory usage to about
2/3 to 3/4 of what is needed by default, it's possible to increase performance
by up to about 18% mainly due to the fact that pools are reused more often
and remain hot in the CPU cache (observed on regular HTTP traffic with 20k
objects, buffers.limit = maxconn/10, buffers.reserve = limit/2).
Below is an example of scenario which used to cause a deadlock previously :
- connection is received
- two buffers are allocated in process_session() then released
- one is allocated when receiving an HTTP request
- the second buffer is allocated then released in process_session()
for request parsing then connection establishment.
- poll() says we can send, so the request buffer is sent and released
- process session gets notified that the connection is now established
and allocates two buffers then releases them
- all other sessions do the same till one cannot get the request buffer
without hitting the margin
- and now the server responds. stream_interface allocates the response
buffer and manages to get it since it's higher priority being for a
response.
- but process_session() cannot allocate the request buffer anymore
=> We could end up with all buffers used by responses so that none may
be allocated for a request in process_session().
When the applet processing leaves the session context, the test will have
to be changed so that we always allocate a response buffer regardless of
the left side (eg: H2->H1 gateway). A final improvement would consists in
being able to only retry the failed I/O operation without waking up a
task, but to date all experiments to achieve this have proven not to be
reliable enough.
This function is used to allocate a buffer and ensure that we leave
some margin after it in the pool. The function is not obvious. While
we allocate only one buffer, we want to ensure that at least two remain
available after our allocation. The purpose is to ensure we'll never
enter a deadlock where all sessions allocate exactly one buffer, and
none of them will be able to allocate the second buffer needed to build
a response in order to release the first one.
We also take care of remaining fast in the the fast path by first
checking whether or not there is enough margin, in which case we only
rely on b_alloc_fast() which is guaranteed to succeed. Otherwise we
take the slow path using pool_refill_alloc().
This function allocates a buffer and replaces *buf with this buffer. If
no memory is available, &buf_wanted is used instead. No control is made
to check if *buf already pointed to another buffer. The allocated buffer
is returned, or NULL in case no memory is available. The difference with
b_alloc() is that this function only picks from the pool and never calls
malloc(), so it can fail even if some memory is available. It is the
caller's job to refill the buffer pool if needed.
Till now we'd consider a buffer full even if it had size==0 due to pointing
to buf.size. Now we change this : if buf_wanted is present, it means that we
have already tried to allocate a buffer but failed. Thus the buffer must be
considered full so that we stop trying to poll for reads on it. Otherwise if
it's empty, it's buf_empty and we report !full since we may allocate it on
the fly.
Doing so ensures that even when no memory is available, we leave the
channel in a sane condition. There's a special case in proto_http.c
regarding the compression, we simply pre-allocate the tmpbuf to point
to the dummy buffer. Not reusing &buf_empty for this allows the rest
of the code to differenciate an empty buffer that's not used from an
empty buffer that results from a failed allocation which has the same
semantics as a buffer full.
Channels are now created with a valid pointer to a buffer before the
buffer is allocated. This buffer is a global one called "buf_empty" and
of size zero. Thus it prevents any activity from being performed on
the buffer and still ensures that chn->buf may always be dereferenced.
b_free() also resets the buffer to &buf_empty, and was split into
b_drop() which does not reset the buffer.
We don't call pool_free2(pool2_buffers) anymore, we only call b_free()
to do the job. This ensures that we can start to centralize the releasing
of buffers.
b_alloc() now allocates a buffer and initializes it to the size specified
in the pool minus the size of the struct buffer itself. This ensures that
callers do not need to care about buffer details anymore. Also this never
applies memory poisonning, which is slow and useless on buffers.
We'll soon need to be able to switch buffers without touching the
channel, so let's move buffer initialization out of channel_init().
We had the same in compressoin.c.
Till now this function would only allocate one entry at a time. But with
dynamic buffers we'll like to allocate the number of missing entries to
properly refill the pool.
Let's modify it to take a minimum amount of available entries. This means
that when we know we need at least a number of available entries, we can
ask to allocate all of them at once. It also ensures that we don't move
the pointers back and forth between the caller and the pool, and that we
don't call pool_gc2() for each failed malloc. Instead, it's called only
once and the malloc is only allowed to fail once.
pool_alloc2() used to pick the entry from the pool, fall back to
pool_refill_alloc(), and to perform the poisonning itself, which
pool_refill_alloc() was also doing. While this led to optimal
code size, it imposes memory poisonning on the buffers as well,
which is extremely slow on large buffers.
This patch cuts the allocator in 3 layers :
- a layer to pick the first entry from the pool without falling back to
pool_refill_alloc() : pool_get_first()
- a layer to allocate a dirty area by falling back to pool_refill_alloc()
but never performing the poisonning : pool_alloc_dirty()
- pool_alloc2() which calls the latter and optionally poisons the area
No functional changes were made.
Remove the code dealing with the old dual-linked lists imported from
librt that has remained unused for the last 8 years. Now everything
uses the linux-like circular lists instead.
Till now, when memory poisonning was enabled, it used to be done only
after a calloc(). But sometimes it's not enough to detect unexpected
sharing, so let's ensure that we now poison every allocation once it's
in place. Note that enabling poisonning significantly hurts performance
(it can typically half the overall performance).
This patch makes it possible to create binds and servers in separate
namespaces. This can be used to proxy between multiple completely independent
virtual networks (with possibly overlapping IP addresses) and a
non-namespace-aware proxy implementation that supports the proxy protocol (v2).
The setup is something like this:
net1 on VLAN 1 (namespace 1) -\
net2 on VLAN 2 (namespace 2) -- haproxy ==== proxy (namespace 0)
net3 on VLAN 3 (namespace 3) -/
The proxy is configured to make server connections through haproxy and sending
the expected source/target addresses to haproxy using the proxy protocol.
The network namespace setup on the haproxy node is something like this:
= 8< =
$ cat setup.sh
ip netns add 1
ip link add link eth1 type vlan id 1
ip link set eth1.1 netns 1
ip netns exec 1 ip addr add 192.168.91.2/24 dev eth1.1
ip netns exec 1 ip link set eth1.$id up
...
= 8< =
= 8< =
$ cat haproxy.cfg
frontend clients
bind 127.0.0.1:50022 namespace 1 transparent
default_backend scb
backend server
mode tcp
server server1 192.168.122.4:2222 namespace 2 send-proxy-v2
= 8< =
A bind line creates the listener in the specified namespace, and connections
originating from that listener also have their network namespace set to
that of the listener.
A server line either forces the connection to be made in a specified
namespace or may use the namespace from the client-side connection if that
was set.

itself.

This converter escapes string to use it as json/ascii escaped string.
It can read UTF-8 with differents behavior on errors and encode it in
json/ascii.
json([<input-code>])
Escapes the input string and produces an ASCII ouput string ready to use as a
JSON string. The converter tries to decode the input string according to the
<input-code> parameter. It can be "ascii", "utf8", "utf8s", "utf8"" or
"utf8ps". The "ascii" decoder never fails. The "utf8" decoder detects 3 types
of errors:
- bad UTF-8 sequence (lone continuation byte, bad number of continuation
bytes, ...)
- invalid range (the decoded value is within a UTF-8 prohibited range),
- code overlong (the value is encoded with more bytes than necessary).
The UTF-8 JSON encoding can produce a "too long value" error when the UTF-8
character is greater than 0xffff because the JSON string escape specification
only authorizes 4 hex digits for the value encoding. The UTF-8 decoder exists
in 4 variants designated by a combination of two suffix letters : "p" for
"permissive" and "s" for "silently ignore". The behaviors of the decoders
are :
- "ascii" : never fails ;
- "utf8" : fails on any detected errors ;
- "utf8s" : never fails, but removes characters corresponding to errors ;
- "utf8p" : accepts and fixes the overlong errors, but fails on any other
error ;
- "utf8ps" : never fails, accepts and fixes the overlong errors, but removes
characters corresponding to the other errors.
This converter is particularly useful for building properly escaped JSON for
logging to servers which consume JSON-formated traffic logs.
Example:
capture request header user-agent len 150
capture request header Host len 15
log-format {"ip":"%[src]","user-agent":"%[capture.req.hdr(1),json]"}
Input request from client 127.0.0.1:
GET / HTTP/1.0
User-Agent: Very "Ugly" UA 1/2
Output log:
{"ip":"127.0.0.1","user-agent":"Very \"Ugly\" UA 1\/2"}
A config where a tcp-request rule appears after an http-request rule
might seem valid but it is not. So let's report a warning about this
since this case is hard to detect by the naked eye.
Some users want to add their own data types to stick tables. We don't
want to use a linked list here for performance reasons, so we need to
continue to use an indexed array. This patch allows one to reserve a
compile-time-defined number of extra data types by setting the new
macro STKTABLE_EXTRA_DATA_TYPES to anything greater than zero, keeping
in mind that anything larger will slightly inflate the memory consumed
by stick tables (not per entry though).
Then calling stktable_register_data_store() with the new keyword will
either register a new keyword or fail if the desired entry was already
taken or the keyword already registered.
Note that this patch does not dictate how the data will be used, it only
offers the possibility to create new keywords and have an index to
reference them in the config and in the tables. The caller will not be
able to use stktable_data_cast() and will have to explicitly cast the
stable pointers to the expected types. It can be used for experimentation
as well.
When we were generating a hash, it was done using an unsigned long. When the hash was used
to select a backend, it was sent as an unsigned int. This made it difficult to predict which
backend would be selected.
This patch updates get_hash, and the hash methods to use an unsigned int, to remain consistent
throughout the codebase.
This fix should be backported to 1.5 and probably in part to 1.4.
This value was set in log.h without any #ifndef around, so when one
wanted to change it, a patch was needed. Let's move it to defaults.h
with the usual #ifndef so that it's easier to change it.
The support is all based on static responses. This doesn't add any
request / response logic to HAProxy, but allows a way to update
information through the socket interface.
Currently certificates specified using "crt" or "crt-list" on "bind" lines
are loaded as PEM files.
For each PEM file, haproxy checks for the presence of file at the same path
suffixed by ".ocsp". If such file is found, support for the TLS Certificate
Status Request extension (also known as "OCSP stapling") is automatically
enabled. The content of this file is optional. If not empty, it must contain
a valid OCSP Response in DER format. In order to be valid an OCSP Response
must comply with the following rules: it has to indicate a good status,
it has to be a single response for the certificate of the PEM file, and it
has to be valid at the moment of addition. If these rules are not respected
the OCSP Response is ignored and a warning is emitted. In order to identify
which certificate an OCSP Response applies to, the issuer's certificate is
necessary. If the issuer's certificate is not found in the PEM file, it will
be loaded from a file at the same path as the PEM file suffixed by ".issuer"
if it exists otherwise it will fail with an error.
It is possible to update an OCSP Response from the unix socket using:
set ssl ocsp-response <response>
This command is used to update an OCSP Response for a certificate (see "crt"
on "bind" lines). Same controls are performed as during the initial loading of
the response. The <response> must be passed as a base64 encoded string of the
DER encoded response from the OCSP server.
Example:
openssl ocsp -issuer issuer.pem -cert server.pem \
-host ocsp.issuer.com:80 -respout resp.der
echo "set ssl ocsp-response $(base64 -w 10000 resp.der)" | \
socat stdio /var/run/haproxy.stat
This feature is automatically enabled on openssl 0.9.8h and above.
This work was performed jointly by Dirkjan Bussink of GitHub and
Emeric Brun of HAProxy Technologies.
The pcreposix layer (in the pcre projetc) execute strlen to find
thlength of the string. When we are using the function "regex_exex*2",
the length is used to add a final \0, when pcreposix is executed a
strlen is executed to compute the length.
If we are using a native PCRE api, the length is provided as an
argument, and these operations disappear.
This is useful because PCRE regex are more used than POSIC regex.
This patch remove all references of standard regex in haproxy. The last
remaining references are only in the regex.[ch] files.
In the file src/checks.c, the original function uses a "pmatch" array.
In fact this array is unused. This patch remove it.
This patchs rename the "regex_exec" to "regex_exec2". It add a new
"regex_exec", "regex_exec_match" and "regex_exec_match2" function. This
function can match regex and return array containing matching parts.
Otherwise, this function use the compiled method (JIT or PCRE or POSIX).
JIT require a subject with length. PCREPOSIX and native POSIX regex
require a null terminted subject. The regex_exec* function are splited
in two version. The first version take a null terminated string, but it
execute strlen() on the subject if it is compiled with JIT. The second
version (terminated by "2") take the subject and the length. This
version adds a null character in the subject if it is compiled with
PCREPOSIX or native POSIX functions.
The documentation of posix regex and pcreposix says that the function
returns 0 if the string matche otherwise it returns REG_NOMATCH. The
REG_NOMATCH macro take the value 1 with posix regex and the value 17
with the pcreposix. The documentaion of the native pcre API (used with
JIT) returns a negative number if no match, otherwise, it returns 0 or a
positive number.
This patch fix also the return codes of the regex_exec* functions. Now,
these function returns true if the string match, otherwise it returns
false.
Using the last rate counters, we now compute the queue, connect, response
and total times per server and per backend with a 95% accuracy over the last
1024 samples. The operation is cheap so we don't need to condition it.
qstr() and cstr() will be used to quote-encode strings. The first one
does it unconditionally. The second one is aimed at CSV files where the
quote-encoding is only needed when the field contains a quote or a comma.
This helper is similar to addr_to_str but
tries to convert the port rather than the address
of a struct sockaddr_storage.
This is in preparation for supporting
an external agent check.

When no static DH parameters are specified, this patch makes haproxy
use standardized (rfc 2409 / rfc 3526) DH parameters with prime lenghts
of 1024, 2048, 4096 or 8192 bits for DHE key exchange. The size of the
temporary/ephemeral DH key is computed as the minimum of the RSA/DSA server
key size and the value of a new option named tune.ssl.default-dh-param.
Dmitry Sivachenko reported that "uint" doesn't build on FreeBSD 10.
On Linux it's defined in sys/types.h and indicated as "old". Just
get rid of the very few occurrences.
Currently exp_replace() (which is used in reqrep/reqirep) is
vulnerable to a buffer overrun. I have been able to reproduce it using
the attached configuration file and issuing the following command:
wget -O - -S -q http://localhost:8000/`perl -e 'print "a"x4000'`/cookie.php
Str was being checked only in in while (str) and it was possible to
read past that when more than one character was being accessed in the
loop.
WT:
Note that this bug is only marked MEDIUM because configurations
capable of triggering this bug are very unlikely to exist at all due
to the fact that most rewrites consist in static string additions
that largely fit into the reserved area (8kB by default).
This fix should also be backported to 1.4 and possibly even 1.3 since
it seems to have been present since 1.1 or so.

git.1wt.eu is painfully slow and some people experience issues with

The is_addr() function indicates if an address is set and is an IPv4
or IPv6 address. Let's rename it is_inet_addr() and make is_addr()
also accept AF_UNIX addresses.
Some consistency checks cannot be performed between frontends, backends
and peers at the moment because there is no way to check for intersection
between processes bound to some processes when the number of processes is
higher than the number of bits in a word.
So first, let's limit the number of processes to the machine's word size.
This means nbproc will be limited to 32 on 32-bit machines and 64 on 64-bit
machines. This is far more than enough considering that configs rarely go
above 16 processes due to scalability and management issues, so 32 or 64
should be fine.
This way we'll ensure we can always build a mask of all the processes a
section is bound to.
Trying to build with an old gcc and glibc revealed that we must not
state "inline" in our _syscall* definitions since it's already present
in the declaration making use of the _syscall* macros.
The cfgparse.c file becomes huge, and a large part of it comes from the
server keyword parser. Since the configuration is a bit more modular now,
move this parser to server.c.
This patch also moves the check of the "server" keyword earlier in the
supported keywords list, resulting in a slightly faster config parsing
for configs with large numbers of servers (about 10%).
No functional change was made, only the code was moved.
This patch permit to register new sections in the haproxy's
configuration file. This run like all the "keyword" registration, it is
used during the haproxy initialization, typically with the
"__attribute__((constructor))" functions.
The function url2sa() converts faster url like http://<ip>:<port> in a
struct sockaddr_storage. This patch add:
- the https support
- permit to return the length parsed
- support IPv6
- support DNS synchronous resolution only during start of haproxy.
The faster IPv4 convertion way is keeped. IPv6 is slower, because I use
the standard IPv6 parser function.
The function str2net runs DNS resolution if valid ip cannot be parsed.
The DNS function used is the standard function of the libc and it
performs asynchronous request.
The asynchronous request is not compatible with the haproxy
archictecture.
str2net() is used during the runtime throught the "socket".
This patch remove the DNS resolution during the runtime.
The pointer <regstr> is only used to compare and identify the original
regex string with the patterns. Now the patterns have a reference map
containing this original string. It is useless to store this value two
times.
The goal of these patch is to simplify the prototype of
"pat_pattern_*()" functions. I want to replace the argument "char
**args" by a simple "char *arg" and remove the "opaque" argument.
"pat_parse_int()" and "pat_parse_dotted_ver()" are the unique pattern
parser using the "opaque" argument and using more than one string
argument of the char **args. These specificities are only used with ACL.
Other systems using this pattern parser (MAP and CLI) just use one
string for describing a range.
This two functions can read a range, but the min and the max must y
specified. This patch extends the syntax to describe a range with
implicit min and max. This is used for operators like "lt", "le", "gt",
and "ge". the syntax is the following:
":x" -> no min to "x"
"x:" -> "x" to no max
This patch moves the parsing of the comparison operator from the
functions "pat_parse_int()" and "pat_parse_dotted_ver()" to the acl
parser. The acl parser read the operator and the values and build a
volatile string readable by the functions "pat_parse_int()" and
"pat_parse_dotted_ver()". The transformation is done with these rules:
If the parser is "pat_parse_int()":
"eq x" -> "x"
"le x" -> ":x"
"lt x" -> ":y" (with y = x - 1)
"ge x" -> "x:"
"gt x" -> "y:" (with y = x + 1)
If the parser is "pat_parse_dotted_ver()":
"eq x.y" -> "x.y"
"le x.y" -> ":x.y"
"lt x.y" -> ":w.z" (with w.z = x.y - 1)
"ge x.y" -> "x.y:"
"gt x.y" -> "w.z:" (with w.z = x.y + 1)
Note that, if "y" is not present, assume that is "0".
Now "pat_parse_int()" and "pat_parse_dotted_ver()" accept only one
pattern and the variable "opaque" is no longer used. The prototype of
the pattern parsers can be changed.
Till now, we had one flag per stick counter to indicate if it was
tracked in a backend or in a frontend. We just had to add another
flag per stick-counter to indicate if it relies on contents or just
connection. These flags are quite painful to maintain and tend to
easily conflict with other flags if their number is changed.
The correct solution consists in moving the flags to the stkctr struct
itself, but currently this struct is made of 2 pointers, so adding a
new entry there to store only two bits will cause at least 16 more bytes
to be eaten per counter due to alignment issues, and we definitely don't
want to waste tens to hundreds of bytes per session just for things that
most users don't use.
Since we only need to store two bits per counter, an intermediate
solution consists in replacing the entry pointer with a composite
value made of the original entry pointer and the two flags in the
2 unused lower bits. If later a need for other flags arises, we'll
have to store them in the struct.
A few inline functions have been added to abstract the retrieval
and assignment of the pointers and flags, resulting in very few
changes. That way there is no more dependence on the number of
stick-counters and their position in the session flags.
Very often we want to associate one or two flags to a pointer, to
put a type on it or whatever. This patch provides this in standard.h
in the form of a few inline functions which combine a void * pointer
with an int and return an unsigned long called a composite address.
The functions allow to individuall set, retrieve both the pointer and
the flags. This is very similar to what is used in ebtree in fact.
One year ago, commit 5d5b5d8 ("MEDIUM: proto_tcp: add support for tracking
L7 information") brought support for tracking L7 information in tcp-request
content rules. Two years earlier, commit 0a4838c ("[MEDIUM] session-counters:
correctly unbind the counters tracked by the backend") used to flush the
backend counters after processing a request.
While that earliest patch was correct at the time, it became wrong after
the second patch was merged. The code does what it says, but the concept
is flawed. "TCP request content" rules are evaluated for each HTTP request
over a single connection. So if such a rule in the frontend decides to
track any L7 information or to track L4 information when an L7 condition
matches, then it is applied to all requests over the same connection even
if they don't match. This means that a rule such as :
tcp-request content track-sc0 src if { path /index.html }
will count one request for index.html, and another one for each of the
objects present on this page that are fetched over the same connection
which sent the initial matching request.
Worse, it is possible to make the code do stupid things by using multiple
counters:
tcp-request content track-sc0 src if { path /foo }
tcp-request content track-sc1 src if { path /bar }
Just sending two requests first, one with /foo, one with /bar, shows
twice the number of requests for all subsequent requests. Just because
both of them persist after the end of the request.
So the decision to flush backend-tracked counters was not the correct
one. In practice, what is important is to flush countent-based rules
since they are the ones evaluated for each request.
Doing so requires new flags in the session however, to keep track of
which stick-counter was tracked by what ruleset. A later change might
make this easier to maintain over time.
This bug is 1.5-specific, no backport to stable is needed.
show pools
Dump the status of internal memory pools. This is useful to track memory
usage when suspecting a memory leak for example. It does exactly the same
as the SIGQUIT when running in foreground except that it does not flush
the pools.
Recent commit 4448925 ("BUILD/MINOR: listener: remove a glibc warning on accept4()")
broke accept4() on some systems because the glibc's version may now conflict with
the local one.
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.
Some systems use different types for tv_sec/tv_usec, some are
signed others not. From time to time new warnings are reported
about implicit casts being done.
This patch ensures that TV_ETERNITY is cast to the appropriate
type in assignments and conversions.
We currently use such an hex parser in pat_parse_bin() to parse hex
string patterns. We'll need another generic one so let's move it to
standard.c and have pat_parse_bin() make use of it.
The inet_pton function needs an input string with a final \0. This
function copies the input string to a temporary buffer, adds the final
\0 and converts to address.
This is achieved by moving rise and fall from struct server to struct check.
After this move the behaviour of the primary check, server->check is
unchanged. However, the secondary agent check, server->agent now has
independent rise and fall values each of which are set to 1.
The result is that receiving "fail", "stopped" or "down" just once from the
agent will mark the server as down. And receiving a weight just once will
allow the server to be marked up if its primary check is in good health.
This opens up the scope to allow the rise and fall values of the agent
check to be configurable, however this has not been implemented at this
stage.

This function was designed for haproxy while testing other functions
in the past. Initially it was not planned to be used given the not
very interesting numbers it showed on real URL data : it is not as
smooth as the other ones. But later tests showed that the other ones
are extremely sensible to the server count and the type of input data,
especially DJB2 which must not be used on numeric input. So in fact
this function is still a generally average performer and it can make
sense to merge it in the end, as it can provide an alternative to
sdbm+avalanche or djb2+avalanche for consistent hashing or when hashing
on numeric data such as a source IP address or a visitor identifier in
a URL parameter.
Summary:
In testing at tumblr, we found that using djb2 hashing instead of the
default sdbm hashing resulted is better workload distribution to our backends.
This commit implements a change, that allows the user to specify the hash
function they want to use. It does not limit itself to consistent hashing
scenarios.
The supported hash functions are sdbm (default), and djb2.
For a discussion of the feature and analysis, see mailing list thread
"Consistent hashing alternative to sdbm" :
http://marc.info/?l=haproxy&m=138213693909219
Note: This change does NOT make changes to new features, for instance,
applying an avalance hashing always being performed before applying
consistent hashing.
If haproxy is compiled with the USE_PCRE_JIT option, the length of the
string is used. If it is compiled without this option the function doesn't
use the length and expects a null terminated string.
The prototype of the function is ambiguous, and depends on the
compilation option. The developer can think that the length is always
used, and many bugs can be created.
This patch makes sure that the length is used. The regex_exec function
adds the final '\0' if it is needed.
The current file "regex.h" define an abstraction for the regex. It
provides the same struct name and the same "regexec" function for the
3 regex types supported: standard libc, basic pcre and jit pcre.
The regex compilation function is not provided by this file. If the
developper wants to use regex, he must write regex compilation code
containing "#define *JIT*".
This patch provides a unique regex compilation function according to
the compilation options.
In addition, the "regex.h" file checks the presence of the "#define
PCRE_CONFIG_JIT" when "USE_PCRE_JIT" is enabled. If this flag is not
present, the pcre lib doesn't support JIT and "#error" is emitted.
The "set table" statement allows to create new entries with their respective
values. Till now it was limited to a single data type per line, requiring as
many "set table" statements as the desired data types to be set. Since this
is only a parser limitation, this patch gets rid of it. It also allows the
creation of a key with no data types (all reset to their default values).
In preparation of more flexibility in the stick counters, make their
number configurable. It still defaults to 3 which is the minimum
accepted value. Changing the value alone is not sufficient to get
more counters, some bitfields still need to be updated and the TCP
actions need to be updated as well, but this update tries to be
easier, which is nice for experimentation purposes.
As per RFC3260 #4 and BCP37 #4.2 and #5.2, the IPv6 counterpart of TOS
is "traffic class".
Add support for IPv6 traffic class in "set-tos" by moving the "set-tos"
related code to the new inline function inet_set_tos(), handling IPv4
(IP_TOS), IPv6 (IPV6_TCLASS) and IPv4-mapped sockets (IP_TOS, like
::ffff:127.0.0.1).
Also define - if missing - the IN6_IS_ADDR_V4MAPPED() macro in
include/common/compat.h for compatibility.
Benoit Dolez reported a failure to start haproxy 1.5-dev19. The
process would immediately report an internal error with missing
fetches from some crap instead of ACL names.
The cause is that some versions of gcc seem to trim static structs
containing a variable array when moving them to BSS, and only keep
the fixed size, which is just a list head for all ACL and sample
fetch keywords. This was confirmed at least with gcc 3.4.6. And we
can't move these structs to const because they contain a list element
which is needed to link all of them together during the parsing.
The bug indeed appeared with 1.5-dev19 because it's the first one
to have some empty ACL keyword lists.
One solution is to impose -fno-zero-initialized-in-bss to everyone
but this is not really nice. Another solution consists in ensuring
the struct is never empty so that it does not move there. The easy
solution consists in having a non-null list head since it's not yet
initialized.
A new "ILH" list head type was thus created for this purpose : create
an Initialized List Head so that gcc cannot move the struct to BSS.
This fixes the issue for this version of gcc and does not create any
burden for the declarations.
Since commit cfd97c6f was merged into 1.5-dev14 (BUG/MEDIUM: checks:
prevent TIME_WAITs from appearing also on timeouts), some valid health
checks sometimes used to show some TCP resets. For example, this HTTP
health check sent to a local server :

After some discussion with Chris Huang-Leaver, it appeared clear that
what we want is to only send the RST when we have no other choice, which
means when the server has not closed. So we still keep SYN/SYN-ACK/RST
for pure TCP checks, but don't want to see an RST emitted as above when
the server has already sent the FIN.
The solution against this consists in implementing a "drain" function at
the protocol layer, which, when defined, causes as much as possible of
the input socket buffer to be flushed to make recv() return zero so that
we know that the server's FIN was received and ACKed. On Linux, we can make
use of MSG_TRUNC on TCP sockets, which has the benefit of draining everything
at once without even copying data. On other platforms, we read up to one
buffer of data before the close. If recv() manages to get the final zero,
we don't disable lingering. Same for hard errors. Otherwise we do.
In practice, on HTTP health checks we generally find that the close was
pending and is returned upon first recv() call. The network trace becomes

This change should be backported to 1.4 which is where Chris encountered
this issue. The code is different, so probably the tcp_drain() function
will have to be put in the checks only.
FreeBSD uses (IPPROTO_IP, IP_BINDANY) and (IPPROTO_IPV6, IPV6_BINDANY)
to enable transparent proxy on a socket.
This patch adds support for the relevant setsockopt() calls.
This patch does not change the logic of the code, it only changes the
way OS-specific defines are tested.
At the moment the transparent proxy code heavily depends on Linux-specific
defines. This first patch introduces a new define "CONFIG_HAP_TRANSPARENT"
which is set every time the defines used by transparent proxy are present.
This also means that with an up-to-date libc, it should not be necessary
anymore to force CONFIG_HAP_LINUX_TPROXY during the build, as the flags
will automatically be detected.
The CTTPROXY flags still remain separate because this older API doesn't
work the same way.
A new line has been added in the version output for haproxy -vv to indicate
what transparent proxy support is available.
When freeing ACL regex, we don't want to perform the free() in regex_free()
as it's already performed in free_pattern(). The double free only happens
when using PCRE_JIT when freeing everything during exit so it's harmless
but exhibits libc errors during a reload/restart.
Bug reported by Seri.
This patch adds a "scope" box in the statistics page in order to
display only proxies with a name that contains the requested value.
The scope filter is preserved across all clicks on the page.
TCP Fast Open is supported in server mode since Linux 3.7, but current
libc's don't define TCP_FASTOPEN=23. Introduce the new USE flag USE_TFO
to define it manually in compat.h. Also note this in the TFO related
documentation.
Now that all addresses are parsed using str2sa_range(), it becomes easy
to add support for environment variables and use them everywhere an address
is needed. Environment variables are used as $VAR or ${VAR} as in shell.
Any number of variables may compose an address, allowing various fantasies
such as "fd@${FD_HTTP}" or "${LAN_DC1}.1:80".
These ones are usable in logs, bind, servers, peers, stats socket, source,
dispatch, and check address.
This change allows one to force the address family in any address parsed
by str2sa_range() by specifying it as a prefix followed by '@' then the
address. Currently supported address prefixes are 'ipv4@', 'ipv6@', 'unix@'.
This also helps forcing resolving for host names (when getaddrinfo is used),
and force the family of the empty address (eg: 'ipv4@' = 0.0.0.0 while
'ipv6@' = ::).
The main benefits is that unix sockets can now get a local name without
being forced to begin with a slash. This is useful during development as
it is no longer necessary to have stats socket sent to /tmp.
Don't use a statically allocated address both for str2ip and str2sa_range,
use the same. The inet and unix code paths have been splitted a little
better to improve readability.
We'll need str2sa_range() to support a prefix for unix sockets. Since
we don't always want to use it (eg: stats socket), let's not take it
unconditionally from global but let the caller pass it.
An invalid copy-paste called it NR_splice instead of NR_accept4.
This does not lead to real issues because if this define is used,
then the code cannot compile since NR_accept4 is still missing.
Right now we have multiple methods for parsing IP addresses in the
configuration. This is quite painful. This patch aims at adapting
str2sa_range() to make it support all formats, so that the callers
perform the appropriate tests on the return values. str2sa() was
changed to simply return str2sa_range().
The output values are now the following ones (taken from the comment
on top of the function).
Converts <str> to a locally allocated struct sockaddr_storage *, and a port
range or offset consisting in two integers that the caller will have to
check to find the relevant input format. The following format are supported :
String format | address | port | low | high
addr | <addr> | 0 | 0 | 0
addr: | <addr> | 0 | 0 | 0
addr:port | <addr> | <port> | <port> | <port>
addr:pl-ph | <addr> | <pl> | <pl> | <ph>
addr:+port | <addr> | <port> | 0 | <port>
addr:-port | <addr> |-<port> | <port> | 0
The detection of a port range or increment by the caller is made by
comparing <low> and <high>. If both are equal, then port 0 means no port
was specified. The caller may pass NULL for <low> and <high> if it is not
interested in retrieving port ranges.
Note that <addr> above may also be :
- empty ("") => family will be AF_INET and address will be INADDR_ANY
- "*" => family will be AF_INET and address will be INADDR_ANY
- "::" => family will be AF_INET6 and address will be IN6ADDR_ANY
- a host name => family and address will depend on host name resolving.
This corrects what appears to be logic errors in cut_crlf().
I assume that the intention of this function is to truncate a
string at the first cr or lf. However, currently lf are ignored.
Also use '\0' instead of 0 as the null character, a cosmetic change.

[WT: this fix may be backported to 1.4 too]
When a frontend is rate-limited to 1000 connections per second, the
effective rate measured from the client is 999/s, and connections
experience an average response time of 99.5 ms with a standard
deviation of 2 ms.
The reason for this inaccuracy is that when computing frequency
counters, we use one part of the previous value proportional to the
number of milliseconds remaining in the current second. But even the
last millisecond still uses a part of the past value, which is wrong :
since we have a 1ms resolution, the last millisecond must be dedicated
only to filling the current second.
So we slightly adjust the algorithm to use 999/1000 of the past value
during the first millisecond, and 0/1000 of the past value during the
last millisecond. We also slightly improve the computation by computing
the remaining time instead of the current time in tv_update_date(), so
that we don't have to negate the value in each frequency counter.
Now with the fix, the connection rate measured by both the client and
haproxy is a steady 1000/s, the average response time measured is 99.2ms
and more importantly, the standard deviation has been divided by 3 to
0.6 millisecond.
This fix should also be backported to 1.4 which has the same issue.
These macros (U2H, U2A, LIM2A, ...) have been used with an explicit
index for the local storage variable, making it difficult to change
log formats and causing a few issues from time to time. Let's have
a single macro with a rotating index so that up to 10 conversions
may be used in a single call.
At the moment, we need trash chunks almost everywhere and the only
correctly implemented one is in the sample code. Let's move this to
the chunks so that all other places can use this allocator.
Additionally, the get_trash_chunk() function now really returns two
different chunks. Previously it used to always overwrite the same
chunk and point it to a different buffer, which was a bit tricky
because it's not obvious that two consecutive results do alias each
other.
This is done by passing the default value to SSLCACHESIZE in sessions.
User can use tune.sslcachesize to change this value.
By default, it is set to 20000 sessions as openssl internal cache size.
Currently, a session entry size is between 592 and 616 bytes depending on the arch.
Now that all pollers make use of speculative I/O, there is no point
having two epoll implementations, so replace epoll with the sepoll code
and remove sepoll which has just become the standard epoll method.
It is stupid to loop over ->snd_buf() because the snd_buf() itself already
loops and stops when system buffers are full. But looping again onto it,
we lose the information of the full buffers and perform one useless syscall.
Furthermore, this causes issues when dealing with large uploads while waiting
for a connection to establish, as it can report a server reject of some data
as a connection abort, which is wrong.
1.4 does not have this issue as it loops maximum twice (once for each buffer
half) and exists as soon as system buffers are full. So no backport is needed.
This function's naming was misleading as it is used to append data
at the end of a string, causing some surprizes when used for the
first time!
Add a chunk_printf() function which does what its name suggests.
This is a first step in avoiding to constantly reinitialize chunks.
It replaces the old chunk_reset() which was not properly named as it
used to drop everything and was only used by chunk_destroy(). It has
been renamed chunk_drop().
This tiny function was not inlined because initially not much used.
However it's been used un the chunk parser for a while and it became
one of the most CPU-cycle eater there. By inlining it, the chunk parser
speed was increased by 74 %. We're almost 3 times faster than original
with just the last 4 commits.
It's sometimes needed to be able to compare a zero-terminated string with a
chunk, so we now have two functions to do that, one strcmp() equivalent and
one strcasecmp() equivalent.
With this commit, we now separate the channel from the buffer. This will
allow us to replace buffers on the fly without touching the channel. Since
nobody is supposed to keep a reference to a buffer anymore, doing so is not
a problem and will also permit some copy-less data manipulation.
Interestingly, these changes have shown a 2% performance increase on some
workloads, probably due to a better cache placement of data.
On Linux, accept4() does the same as accept() except that it allows
the caller to specify some flags to set on the resulting socket. We
use this to set the O_NONBLOCK flag and thus to save one fcntl()
call in each connection. The effect is a small performance gain of
around 1%.
The option is automatically enabled when target linux2628 is set, or
when the USE_ACCEPT4 Makefile variable is set. If the libc is too old
to provide the equivalent function, this is automatically detected and
our own function is used instead. In any case it is possible to force
the use of our implementation with USE_MY_ACCEPT4.
These ones are used to set the default ciphers suite on "bind" lines and
"server" lines respectively, instead of using OpenSSL's defaults. These
are probably mainly useful for distro packagers.
Alex Markham reported and diagnosed a bug appearing on 1.5-dev11,
causing a crash on x86_64 when header hashing is used. The cause is
a missing (int) cast causing a negative offset to appear positive
and the resulting pointer to go out of bounds.
The crash is not possible anymore since 1.5-dev12 because a second
bug caused the negative sign to disappear so the pointer is always
within range but always wrong, so balance hdr() never works anymore.
This fix restores the correct behaviour and ensures the sign is
correct.
Bind parsers may return multiple errors, so let's make use of a new function
to re-indent multi-line error messages so that they're all reported in their
context.
It appears that fd.h includes a number of unneeded files and was
included from standard.h, and as such served as an intermediary
to provide almost everything to everyone.
By removing its useless includes, a long dependency chain broke
but could easily be fixed.
I/O handlers now all use __conn_{sock,data}_{stop,poll,want}_* instead
of returning dummy flags. The code has become slightly simpler because
some tricks such as the MIN_RET_FOR_READ_LOOP are not needed anymore,
and the data handlers which switch to a handshake handler do not need
to disable themselves anymore.
These functions do not depend on the channel flags anymore thus they're
much better suited to be used on plain buffers. Move them from channel
to buffer.
This macro is usable like printf but sends messages to fd #-1, which has no
visible effect but is easy to spot in strace. This is very useful to put
tracers at many points during debugging sessions.
All keywords registered using a cfg_kw_list now make use of the new error reporting
framework. This allows easier and more precise error reporting without having to
deal with complex buffer allocation issues.
From time to time, some bugs are discovered that are caused by non-initialized
memory areas. It happens that most platforms return a zero-filled area upon
first malloc() thus hiding potential bugs. This patch also replaces malloc()
in pools with calloc() to ensure that all platforms exhibit the same behaviour
upon startup. In order to catch these bugs more easily, add a -dM command line
flag to enable memory poisonning. Optionally, passing -dM<byte> forces the
poisonning byte to <byte>.
memprintf() is just like snprintf() except that it always returns a properly
sized allocated string that the caller is responsible for freeing. NULL is
returned on serious errors. It also supports stackable calls over the same
pointer since it offers support for automatically freeing a previous one :
memprintf(&err, "invalid argument: '%s'", arg);
...
memprintf(&err, "keyword parser said: <%s>", *err);
...
memprintf(&err, "line parser said: %s\n", *err);
...
free(*err);

This version is mainly aimed at clarifying the fact that the ebtree license
is LGPL. Some files used to indicate LGPL and other ones GPL, while the goal
clearly is to have it LGPL. A LICENSE file has also been added.
No code is affected, but it's better to have the local tree in sync anyway.
(cherry picked from commit 24dc7cca051f081600fe8232f33e55ed30e88425)
For a long time, the max number of headers was taken as a part of the buffer
size. Since the header size can be configured at runtime, it does not make
much sense anymore.
Nothing was making it necessary to have a static value, so let's turn this into
a tunable with a default value of 101 which equals what was previously used.
By default, pipes are the default size for the system. But sometimes when
using TCP splicing, it can improve performance to increase pipe sizes,
especially if it is suspected that pipes are not filled and that many
calls to splice() are performed. This has an impact on the kernel's
memory footprint, so this must not be changed if impacts are not understood.
We now measure the work and idle times in order to report the idle
time in the stats. It's expected that we'll be able to use it at
other places later.
Many inet_ntop calls were partially right, which was hard to detect given
the complex combinations. Some of them were relying on the listener's proto
instead of the address itself, which could have been different when dealing
with an accept-proxy connection.
The new addr_to_str() function does the dirty job and returns the family, which
makes it particularly suited to calls from switch/case statements. A large number
of if/else statements were removed and the stats output could even be cleaned up
in the case of session dump.
As a side effect of doing this, the resulting code is smaller by almost 1kB.
All changed parts have been tested and provided expected output.
Some older libc don't define splice() and and don't define _syscall*()
either, which causes build errors if splicing is enabled.
To solve this, we now split the syscall redefinition into two layers :
- one file per syscall (epoll, splice)
- one common file to declare the _syscall*() macros
The code is cleaner because files using the syscalls just have to include
their respective file. It's not adviced to merge multiple syscall families
into a same file if all are not intended to be used simultaneously, because
defining unused static functions causes warnings to be emitted during build.
As a result, the new USE_MY_SPLICE parameter was added in order to be able
to define the splice() syscall separately.
This patch provides a new "option redis-check" statement to enable server health checks based on redis PING request (http://www.redis.io/commands/ping).
apsession_refresh() and apsess_refressh are only used inside apsession.c
and thus can be made static.
The only use of apsession_refresh() is appsession_task_init().
These functions have been re-ordered to avoid the need for
a forward-declaration of apsession_refresh().
Bashkim Kasa reported that the stats admin page did not work when colons
were used in server or backend names. This was caused by url-encoding
resulting in ':' being sent as '%3A'. Now we systematically decode the
field names and values to fix this issue.
It's more expensive to call splice() on short payloads than to use
recv()+send(). One of the reasons is that doing a splice() involves
allocating a pipe. One other reason is that the kernel will have to
copy itself if we try to splice less than a page. So let's fix a
short offset of 4kB below which we don't splice.
A quick test shows that on chunked encoded data, with splice we had
6826 syscalls (1715 splice, 3461 recv, 1650 send) while with this
patch, the same transfer resulted in 5793 syscalls (3896 recv, 1897
send).
John Helliwell reported a runtime issue on Solaris since 1.5-dev5. Traces
show that connect() returns EINVAL, which means the socket length is not
appropriate for the family. Solaris does not like being called with sizeof
and needs the address family's size on sockaddr_storage.
The fix consists in adding a get_addr_len() function which returns the
socket's address length based on its family. Tests show that this works
for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
Since IPv6 is a different type than IPv4, the pattern fetch functions
src6 and dst6 were added. IPv6 stick-tables can also fetch IPv4 addresses
with src and dst. In this case, the IPv4 addresses are mapped to their
IPv6 counterpart, according to RFC 4291.
The parser now distinguishes between pure addresses and address:port. This
is useful for some config items where only an address is required.
Raw IPv6 addresses are now parsed, but IPv6 host name resolution is still not
handled (gethostbyname does not resolve IPv6 names to addresses).
And also rename "req_acl_rule" "http_req_rule". At the beginning that
was a bit confusing to me, especially the "req_acl" list which in fact
holds what we call rules. After some digging, it appeared that some
part of the code is 100% HTTP and not just related to authentication
anymore, so let's move that part to HTTP and keep the auth-only code
in auth.c.
This patch turns internal server addresses to sockaddr_storage to
store IPv6 addresses, and makes the connect() function use it. This
code already works but some caveats with getaddrinfo/gethostbyname
still need to be sorted out while the changes had to be merged at
this stage of internal architecture changes. So for now the config
parser will not emit an IPv6 address yet so that user experience
remains unchanged.
This change should have absolutely zero user-visible effect, otherwise
it's a bug introduced during the merge, that should be reported ASAP.
We'll use this hash at other places, let's make it globally available.
The function has also been renamed because its "chash_hash" name was
not appropriate.
MAXPATHLEN may be used at other places, it's unconvenient to have it
redefined in a few files. Also, since checking it requires including
sys/param.h, some versions of it cause a macro declaration conflict
with MIN/MAX which are defined in tools.h. The solution consists in
including sys/param.h in both files so that we ensure it's loaded
before the macros are defined and MAXPATHLEN is checked.
inetaddr_host_lim_ret() used to make use of const char** for some
args, but that make it impossible ot use char** due to the way
controls are made by gcc. So let's change that.
The stats web interface must be read-only by default to prevent security
holes. As it is now allowed to enable/disable servers, a new keyword
"stats admin" is introduced to activate this admin level, conditioned by ACLs.

Some config parsing functions need to return composite status codes
when they rely on other functions. Let's provide a few such codes
for general use and extend them later.
We'll need to divide 64 bits by 32 bits with new frequency counters.
Gcc does not know when it can safely do that, but the way we build
our operations let us be sure. So let's provide an optimised version
for that purpose.
