This option had always been broken in HTX, which means that the first
breakage appeared in 1.9, that it was broken by default in 2.0 and that
no workaround existed starting with 2.1. The way this option works is
praticularly unfit to the rest of the configuration and to the internal
architecture. It had some uses when it was introduced 14 years ago but
nowadays it's possible to do much better and more reliable using a
set of "http-request set-dst" and "http-request set-uri" rules, which
additionally are compatible with DNS resolution (via do-resolve) and
are not exclusive to normal load balancing. The "option-http_proxy"
example config file was updated to reflect this.
The option is still parsed so that an error message gives hints about
what to look for.
Till now we were dealing with single-word expressions but in order to
extend the configuration condition language a bit more, we'll need to
support slightly more complex expressions involving operators, and we
must absolutely support spaces around them to keep them readable.
As all arguments are pointers to the same line with spaces replaced by
zeroes, we can trivially rebuild the whole line before calling the
condition evaluator, and remove the test for extraneous argument. This
is what this patch does.
The .if/.else/.endif and condition evaluation code is quite dirty and
was dumped into cfgparse.c because it was easy. But it should be tidied
quite a bit as it will need to evolve.
Let's move all that to cfgcond.{c,h}.
This patch provides the code to handle arrays of some
standard types (SINT, UINT, ULL and FRQP) in stick table.
This way we could define new "array" data types.
Note: the number of elements of an array was limited
to 100 to put a limit and to ensure that an encoded
update message will continue to fit into a buffer
when the peer protocol will handle such data types.
To avoid repeating the same source code, allocating memory and initializing
the per_thr field from the server structure is transferred to a separate
function.
Lots of places iterating over nbproc or comparing with nbproc could be
simplified. Further, "bind-process" and "process" parsing that was
already limited to process 1 or "all" or "odd" resulted in a bind_proc
field that was either 0 or 1 during the init phase and later always 1.
All the checks for compatibilities were removed since it's not possible
anymore to run a frontend and a backend on different processes or to
have peers and stick-tables bound on different ones. This is the largest
part of this patch.
The bind_proc field was removed from both the proxy and the receiver
structs.
Since the "process" and "bind-process" directives are still parsed,
configs making use of correct values allowing process 1 will continue
to work.
If the server id is fixed in the configuration, it is immediately
inserted in the 'used_server_id' backend tree via srv_parse_id. On
check_config_validity, the dynamic id generation is thus skipped for
fixed-id servers. However, it must nevertheless be inserted in the
'used_server_name' backend tree.
This bug seems to be not noticeable for the user. Indeed, before the
fix, the search in sticking_rule_find_target always returned NULL for
the name, then the fallback search with server id succeeded, so the
persistence is properly applied. However with the fix the fallback
search is not executed anymore, which saves from the locking of
STK_SESS.
This should be backported up to 2.0.
This one was deprecated in 2.3 and marked for removal in 2.5. It suffers
too many limitations compared to threads, and prevents some improvements
from being engaged. Instead of a bypassable startup error, there is now
a hard error.
The parsing code was removed, and very few obvious cases were as well.
The code is deeply rooted at certain places (e.g. "for" loops iterating
from 0 to nbproc) so it will not be that trivial to remove everywhere.
The "bind" and "bind-process" parsers will have to be adjusted, though
maybe not completely changed if we later want to support thread groups
for large NUMA machines. Some stats socket restrictions were removed,
and the doc was updated according to what was done. A few places in the
doc still refer to nbproc and will have to be revisited. The master-worker
code also refers to the process number to distinguish between master and
workers and will have to be carefully adjusted. The MAX_PROCS macro was
reset to 1, this will at least reduce the size of some remaining arrays.
Two regtests were dependieng on this directive, one with an explicit
"nbproc 1" and another one testing the master's CLI using nbproc 4.
Both were adapted.
This patch adds the `-cc` (check condition) argument to evaluate conditions on
startup and return the result as the exit code.
As an example this can be used to easily check HAProxy's version in scripts:
haproxy -cc 'version_atleast(2.4)'
This resolves GitHub issue #1246.
Co-authored-by: Tim Duesterhus <tim@bastelstu.be>
We can calculate the number of possible arguments based off the size of the
`args` array. We should do so to prevent the two values from getting out of
sync.
Initialize the parsing context when checking server config validity.
Adjust the log messages to remove redundant config file/line and server
name. Do a similar cleaning in prepare_srv from ssl_sock as this
function is called at the same stage.
This will standardize the stderr output on startup with the parse_server
function.
Set "config :" as a prefix for the user messages context before starting
the configuration parsing. All following stderr output will be prefixed
by it.
As a consequence, remove extraneous prefix "config" already specified in
various ha_alert/warning/notice calls.
A memory allocation failure happening in chash_init_server_tree while
trying to allocate a server's lb_nodes item used in consistent hashing
would have resulted in a crash. This function is only called during
configuration parsing.
It was raised in GitHub issue #1233.
It could be backported to all stable branches.
The function is defined when using linux+cpu affinity but is only used
if threads are enabled, so let's add this condition to avoid aa build
warning about an unused function when building with thread disabled.
This came in 2.4-dev17 with commit b56a7c89a ("MEDIUM: cfgparse: detect
numa and set affinity if needed") so no backport is needed.
These ones are used by virtually every config parser. Not only they
provide no benefit in being inlined, but they imply a very deep
dependency starting at proxy.h, which results for example in task.c
including openssl.
Let's move these two functions to cfgparse.c.
This one works just like .notice/.warning/.alert except that it prints
the message at level "DIAG" only when haproxy runs in diagnostic mode
(-dD). This can be convenient for example to pass a few hints to help
locate certain config parts or to leave messages about certain temporary
workarounds.
Example:
.diag "WTA/2021-05-07: $.LINE: replace 'redirect' with 'return' after final switch to 2.4"
http-request redirect location /goaway if ABUSE
These predicates respectively verify that the current version is at least
a given version or is before a specific one. The syntax is exactly the one
reported by "haproxy -v", though each component is optional, so both "1.5"
and "2.4-dev18-88910-48" are supported. Missing components equal zero, and
"dev" is below "pre" or "rc", which are both inferior to no such mention
(i.e. they are negative). Thus "2.4-dev18" is older than "2.4-rc1" which
is older than "2.4".
The "feature(name)" predicate will return true if <name> corresponds to
a name listed after a '+' in the features list, that is it was enabled at
build time with USE_<name>=1. Typical use cases will include OPENSSL, LUA
and LINUX_SPLICE. But maybe it will also be convenient to use with optional
addons such as PROMEX and the device detection modules to help keeping the
same configs across various deployments.
"streq(str1,str2)" will return true if the two strings match while
"strneq(str1,str2)" will return true only if they differ. This is
convenient to match an environment variable against a predefined value.
Now we can look up a list of known predicates and pre-parse their
arguments. For now the list is empty. The code needed to be arranged with
a common exit point to release all arguments because there's no default
argument freeing function (it likely only used to exist in the deinit
code). Since we only support simple arguments for now it's no big deal,
only a 2-liner loop.
Let's return the position of the first unparsable character on error,
so that instead of just saying "unparsable conditional expression blah"
we can have:
[ALERT] 125/150618 (13995) : parsing [test-conds2.cfg:1]: unparsable conditional expression '12/blah' in '.if' at position 1:
.if 12/blah
^
This is important because conditions will be made from environment
variables or later from more complex expressions where the error will
not always be easy to locate.
Let's add a few fields to the global struct to store information about
the current file being processed, the current line number and the current
section. This will be used to retrieve them using special variables.
Instead of duplicating the condition evaluations, let's have a single
function cfg_eval_condition() that returns true/false/error. It takes
less code and will ease its extension.
The doc about .if/.elif config block conditions says:
a non-nul integer (e.g. '1'), always returns "true"
So we must accept negative integers as well. The test was made on
atoi() > 0.
No backport is needed, this is only 2.4.
This missing state was causing a second elif condition to be evaluated
after a first one succeeded after a .if failed. For example in the test
below the else would be executed:
.if 0
.elif 1
.elif 0
.else
.endif
No backport is needed, this is 2.4-only.
The condition to skip the block in the ".if" evaluator forgot to check
that the level was high enough, resulting in rare cases where a random
value matched one of the 5 values that cause the block to be skipped.
No backport is needed as it's 2.4-only.
By default haproxy loads all files designated by a relative path from the
location the process is started in. In some circumstances it might be
desirable to force all relative paths to start from a different location
just as if the process was started from such locations. This is what this
directive is made for. Technically it will perform a temporary chdir() to
the designated location while processing each configuration file, and will
return to the original directory after processing each file. It takes an
argument indicating the policy to use when loading files whose path does
not start with a slash ('/').
A few options are offered, "current" (the default), "config" (files
relative to config file's dir), "parent" (files relative to config file's
parent dir), and "origin" with an absolute path.
This should address issue #1198.
In readcfgfile() when malloc() fails to allocate a buffer for the
config line, it currently says "parsing[<file>]: out of memory" while
the error is unrelated to the config file and may make one think it has
to do with the file's size. The second test (fopen() returning error)
needs to release the previously allocated line. Both directly return -1
which is not even documented as a valid error code for the function.
Let's simply make sure that the few variables freed at the end are
properly preset, and jump there upon error, after having displayed a
meaningful error message. Now at least we can get this:
$ ./haproxy -f /dev/kmem
[NOTICE] 116/191904 (23233) : haproxy version is 2.4-dev17-c3808c-13
[NOTICE] 116/191904 (23233) : path to executable is ./haproxy
[ALERT] 116/191904 (23233) : Could not open configuration file /dev/kmem : Permission denied
The error path of the NUMA topology detection introduced in commit
b56a7c89a ("MEDIUM: cfgparse: detect numa and set affinity if needed")
lacks an initialization resulting in possible crashes at boot. No
backport is needed since that was introduced in 2.4-dev.
The compilation is currently broken on platform without USE_CPU_AFFINITY
set. An error has been reported by the cygwin build of the CI.
This does not need to be backported.

Render numa detection optional with a global configuration statement
'no numa-cpu-mapping'. This can be used if the applied affinity of the
algorithm is not optimal. Also complete the documentation with this new
keyword.
On process startup, the CPU topology of the machine is inspected. If a
multi-socket CPU machine is detected, automatically define the process
affinity on the first node with active cpus. This is done to prevent an
impact on the overall performance of the process in case the topology of
the machine is unknown to the user.
This step is not executed in the following condition :
- a non-null nbthread statement is present
- a restrictive 'cpu-map' statement is present
- the process affinity is already restricted, for example via a taskset
call
For the record, benchmarks were executed on a machine with 2 CPUs
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v3 @ 2.50GHz. In both clear and ssl
scenario, the performance were sub-optimal without the automatic
rebinding on a single node.
Allow to specify multiple cpu ids/ranges in parse_cpu_set separated by a
comma. This is optional and must be activated by a parameter.
The comma support is disabled for the parsing of the 'cpu-map' config
statement. However, it will be useful to parse files in sysfs when
inspecting the cpus topology for NUMA automatic process binding.
Replace the unsigned long parameter by a hap_cpuset. This allows to
address CPU with index greater than LONGBITS.
This function is used to parse the 'cpu-map' statement. However at the
moment, the result is casted back to a long to store it in the global
structure. The next step is to replace ulong in in cpu_map in the
global structure with hap_cpuset.
The current "ADD" vs "ADDQ" is confusing because when thinking in terms
of appending at the end of a list, "ADD" naturally comes to mind, but
here it does the opposite, it inserts. Several times already it's been
incorrectly used where ADDQ was expected, the latest of which was a
fortunate accident explained in 6fa922562 ("CLEANUP: stream: explain
why we queue the stream at the head of the server list").
Let's use more explicit (but slightly longer) names now:
LIST_ADD -> LIST_INSERT
LIST_ADDQ -> LIST_APPEND
LIST_ADDED -> LIST_INLIST
LIST_DEL -> LIST_DELETE
The same is true for MT_LISTs, including their "TRY" variant.
LIST_DEL_INIT keeps its short name to encourage to use it instead of the
lazier LIST_DELETE which is often less safe.
The change is large (~674 non-comment entries) but is mechanical enough
to remain safe. No permutation was performed, so any out-of-tree code
can easily map older names to new ones.
The list doc was updated.
This patch registers the parsed file and the line where a log server
is declared to make those information available in configuration
post check.
Those new informations were added on error messages probed resolving
ring names on post configuration check.
L6 sample fetches are now ignored when called from an HTTP proxy. Thus, a
warning is emitted during the startup if such usage is detected. It is true
for most ACLs and for log-format strings. Unfortunately, it is a bit painful
to do so for sample expressions.
This patch relies on the commit "MINOR: action: Use a generic function to
check validity of an action rule list".
The check_action_rules() function is now used to check the validity of an
action rule list. It is used from check_config_validity() function to check
L5/6/7 rulesets.
If a 'switch-mode http' tcp action is configured on a listener with no
backend, a warning is displayed to remember HTTP connections cannot be
routed to TCP servers. Indeed, backend connection is still established using
the proxy mode.
It is just a small cleanup. AN_REQ_FLT_HTTP_HDRS and AN_RES_FLT_HTTP_HDRS
analysers are now set in HTTP analysers at the same place
AN_REQ_HTTP_XFER_BODY and AN_RES_HTTP_XFER_BODY are set.
No warning is emitted if some http-after-response rules are configured on a
TCP proxy while such warning messages are emitted for other HTTP ruleset in
same condition. It is just an oversight.
This patch may be backported as far as 2.2.
For now smp_resolve_args() complains on stderr via ha_alert(), but if we
want to make it a bit more dynamic, we need it to return errors in an
allocated message. Let's pass it an error pointer and have it fill it.
On return we indent the output if it contains more than one line.
Modify the API of parse_server function. Use flags to describe the type
of the parsed server instead of discrete arguments. These flags can be
used to specify if a server/default-server/server-template is parsed.
Additional parameters are also specified (parsing of the address
required, resolve of a name must be done immediately).
It is now unneeded to use strcmp on args[0] in parse_server. Also, the
calls to parse_server are more explicit thanks to the flags.
The idle conn task is is a global task used to cleanup backend
connections marked for deletion. Previously, it was only only allocated
if at least one server in the configuration has idle connections.
This assumption won't be valid anymore when new servers can be created
at runtime with idle connections. Always allocate the global idle conn
task.
If the configuration file contains a 'unix-bind prefix' directive, and
if we use the -S option and specify a UNIX socket path, the path of the
socket will be prepended with the value of the unix-bind prefix.
For instance, if we have 'unix-bind prefix /tmp/sockets/' and we use
'-S /tmp/master-socket' on the command line, we will get this error:
Starting proxy MASTER:
cannot bind UNIX socket (No such file or directory) [/tmp/sockets/tmp/master-socket]
So this patch adds an exception, and will ignore the unix-bind prefix
for the master CLI socket.
This patch can be backported as far as 1.9.
There were still a very small list of functions, variables and fields
called "stats_" while they were really purely CLI-centric. There's the
frontend called "stats_fe" in the global section, which instantiates a
"cli_applet" called "<CLI>" so it was renamed "cli_fe".
The "alloc_stats_fe" function cas renamed to "cli_alloc_fe" which also
better matches the naming convention of all cli-specific functions.
Finally the "stats_permission_denied_msg" used to return an error on
the CLI was renamed "cli_permission_denied_msg".
Now there's no more "stats_something" that designates the CLI.
Just like with the server keywords, now's the turn of "bind" keywords.
The difference is that 100% of the bind keywords are registered, thus
we do not need the list of extra keywords.
There are multiple bind line parsers today, all were updated:
- peers
- log
- dgram-bind
- cli
$ printf "listen f\nbind :8000 tcut\n" | ./haproxy -c -f /dev/stdin
[NOTICE] 070/101358 (25146) : haproxy version is 2.4-dev11-7b8787-26
[NOTICE] 070/101358 (25146) : path to executable is ./haproxy
[ALERT] 070/101358 (25146) : parsing [/dev/stdin:2] : 'bind :8000' unknown keyword 'tcut'; did you mean 'tcp-ut' maybe ?
[ALERT] 070/101358 (25146) : Error(s) found in configuration file : /dev/stdin
[ALERT] 070/101358 (25146) : Fatal errors found in configuration.
Instead of just reporting "unknown keyword", let's provide a function which
will look through a list of registered keywords for a similar-looking word
to the one that wasn't matched. This will help callers suggest correct
spelling. Also, given that a large part of the config parser still relies
on a long chain of strcmp(), we'll need to be able to pass extra candidates.
Thus the function supports an optional extra list for this purpose.
The actconns list creates massive contention on low server counts because
it's in fact a list of streams using a server, all threads compete on the
list's head and it's still possible to see some watchdog panics on 48
threads under extreme contention with 47 threads trying to add and one
thread trying to delete.
Moving this list per thread is trivial because it's only used by
srv_shutdown_streams(), which simply required to iterate over the list.
The field was renamed to "streams" as it's really a list of streams
rather than a list of connections.
There are multiple per-thread lists in the listeners, which isn't the
most efficient in terms of cache, and doesn't easily allow to store all
the per-thread stuff.
Now we introduce an srv_per_thread structure which the servers will have an
array of, and place the idle/safe/avail conns tree heads into. Overall this
was a fairly mechanical change, and the array is now always initialized for
all servers since we'll put more stuff there. It's worth noting that the Lua
code still has to deal with its own deinit by itself despite being in a
global list, because its server is not dynamically allocated.
Till now servers were only initialized as part of the proxy setup loop,
which doesn't cover peers, tcp log, dns, lua etc. Let's move this part
out of this loop and instead iterate over all registered servers. This
way we're certain to visit them all.
The patch looks big but it's just a move of a large block with the
corresponding reindent (as can be checked with diff -b). It relies
on the two previous ones ("MINOR: server: add a global list of all
known servers and" and "CLEANUP: lua: set a dummy file name and line
number on the dummy servers").
A few occurrences of calls to free() to free a section name,
peers name or server name were using casts and didn't include
the trailing free, let's switch them to ha_free().
This makes the code more readable and less prone to copy-paste errors.
In addition, it allows to place some __builtin_constant_p() predicates
to trigger a link-time error in case the compiler knows that the freed
area is constant. It will also produce compile-time error if trying to
free something that is not a regular pointer (e.g. a function).
The DEBUG_MEM_STATS macro now also defines an instance for ha_free()
so that all these calls can be checked.
178 occurrences were converted. The vast majority of them were handled
by the following Coccinelle script, some slightly refined to better deal
with "&*x" or with long lines:
@ rule @
expression E;
@@
- free(E);
- E = NULL;
+ ha_free(&E);
It was verified that the resulting code is the same, more or less a
handful of cases where the compiler optimized slightly differently
the temporary variable that holds the copy of the pointer.
A non-negligible amount of {free(str);str=NULL;str_len=0;} are still
present in the config part (mostly header names in proxies). These
ones should also be cleaned for the same reasons, and probably be
turned into ist strings.
These function names are unbearably long, they don't even fit into the
screen in "show profiling", let's trim the "_connections" to "_conns",
which happens to match the name of the lists there.
The maximum number of connections accepted at once by a thread for a single
listener used to default to 64 divided by the number of processes but the
tasklet-based model is much more scalable and benefits from smaller values.
Experimentation has shown that 4 gives the highest accept rate for all
thread values, and that 3 and 5 come very close, as shown below (HTTP/1
connections forwarded per second at multi-accept 4 and 64):
ac\thr| 1 2 4 8 16
------+------------------------------
4| 80k 106k 168k 270k 336k
64| 63k 89k 145k 230k 274k
Some tests were also conducted on SSL and absolutely no change was observed.
The value was placed into a define because it used to be spread all over the
code.
It might be useful at some point to backport this to 2.3 and 2.2 to help
those who observed some performance regressions from 1.6.
This patch splits current dns.c into two files:
The first dns.c contains code related to DNS message exchange over UDP
and in future other TCP. We try to remove depencies to resolving
to make it usable by other stuff as DNS load balancing.
The new resolvers.c inherit of the code specific to the actual
resolvers.
Note:
It was really difficult to obtain a clean diff dur to the amount
of moved code.
Note2:
Counters and stuff related to stats is not cleany separated because
currently counters for both layers are merged and hard to separate
for now.
Very often, especially since reg-tests, it would be desirable to be able
to conditionally comment out a config block, such as removing an SSL
binding when SSL is disabled, or enabling HTX only for certain versions,
etc.
This patch introduces a very simple nested block management which takes
".if", ".elif", ".else" and ".endif" directives to take or ignore a block.
For now the conditions are limited to empty string or "0" for false versus
a non-nul integer for true, which already suffices to test environment
variables. Still, it needs to be a bit more advanced with defines, versions
etc.
A set of ".notice", ".warning" and ".alert" statements are provided to
emit messages, often in order to provide advice about how to fix certain
conditions.
We don't want to expose this one anymore as we'll soon keep multiple
default proxies. Let's move it inside the parser which is the only
place which still uses it, and initialize it on the fly once needed
instead of doing it at boot time.
init_default_instance() was still left in cfgparse.c which is not the
best place to pre-initialize a proxy. Let's place it in proxy.c just
after init_new_proxy(), take this opportunity for renaming it to
proxy_preset_defaults() and taking out init_new_proxy() from it, and
let's pass it the pointer to the default proxy to be initialized instead
of implicitly assuming defproxy. We'll soon be able to exploit this.
Only two call places had to be updated.
In 2.1, commit ee4f5f83d ("MINOR: stats: get rid of the ST_CONVDONE flag")
introduced a subtle bug. By testing curproxy against defproxy in
check_config_validity(), it tried to eliminate the need for a flag
to indicate that stats authentication rules were already compiled,
but by doing so it left the issue opened for the case where a new
defaults section appears after the two proxies sharing the first
one:
defaults
mode http
stats auth foo:bar
listen l1
bind :8080
listen l2
bind :8181
defaults
# just to break above
This config results in:
[ALERT] 042/113725 (3121) : proxy 'f2': stats 'auth'/'realm' and 'http-request' can't be used at the same time.
[ALERT] 042/113725 (3121) : Fatal errors found in configuration.
Removing the last defaults remains OK. It turns out that the cleanups
that followed that patch render it useless, so the best fix is to revert
the change (with the up-to-date flags instead). The flag was marked as
belonging to the config. It's not exact but it's the closest to the
reality, as it's not there to configure the behavior but ti mention
that the config parser did its job.
This could be backported as far as 2.1, but in practice it looks like
nobody ever hit it.
Since commit 1.3.14 with commit 1fa3126ec ("[MEDIUM] introduce separation
between contimeout, and tarpit + queue"), check_config_validity() looks
at the last defaults section to update all proxies' queue and tarpit
timeouts if they were not set!
This was apparently an attempt to properly set them on the fallback values,
except that the fallback values were taken from the default proxy before
looking at the current proxy itself. The worst part of it is that it might
have randomly worked by accident for some configurations when there was a
single defaults section, but has certainly caused too short queue
expirations once another defaults section was added later in the file with
these explicitly defined.
Let's remove the defproxy part and keep only the curproxy ones. This could
be backported everywhere, the bug has been there for 13 years.
The server idle/safe/available connection lists are replaced with ebmb-
trees. This is used to store backend connections, with the new field
connection hash as the key. The hash is a 8-bytes size field, used to
reflect specific connection parameters.
This is a preliminary work to be able to reuse connection with SNI,
explicit src/dst address or PROXY protocol.
This is a preparation work for connection reuse with sni/proxy
protocol/specific src-dst addresses.
Protect every access to idle conn lists with a lock. This is currently
strictly not needed because the access to the list are made with atomic
operations. However, to be able to reuse connection with specific
parameters, the list storage will be converted to eb-trees. As this
structure does not have atomic operation, it is mandatory to protect it
with a lock.
For this, the takeover lock is reused. Its role was to protect during
connection takeover. As it is now extended to general idle conns usage,
it is renamed to idle_conns_lock. A new lock section is also
instantiated named IDLE_CONNS_LOCK to isolate its impact on performance.
This allows using the address of the server rather than the name of the
server for keeping track of servers in a backend for stickiness.
The peers code was also extended to support feeding the dictionary using
this key instead of the name.
Fixes#814
This patch is there to initialize the default transport parameters for QUIC
as a preparation for one of the QUIC next steps to come: fully support QUIC
protocol for haproxy servers.
This patch adds a quic_transport_params struct to bind_conf struct
used for the listeners. This is to store the QUIC transport parameters
for the listeners. Also initializes them when calling str2listener().
Before str2sa_range() it's too early to figure we're going to speak QUIC,
and after it's too late as listeners are already created. So it seems that
doing it in str2listener() when the protocol is discovered is the best
place.
Also adds two ebtrees to the underlying receivers to store the connection
by connections IDs (one for the original connection IDs, and another
one for the definitive connection IDs which really identify the connections.
However it doesn't seem normal that it is stored in the receiver nor the
listener. There should be a private context in the listener so that
protocols can store internal information. This element should in
fact be the listener handle.
Something still feels wrong, and probably we'll have to make QUIC and
SSL co-exist: a proof of this is that there's some explicit code in
bind_parse_ssl() to prevent the "ssl" keyword from replacing the xprt.
in the context of a progressive backend migration, we want to be able to
activate SSL on outgoing connections to the server at runtime without
reloading.
This patch adds a `set server ssl` command; in order to allow that:
- add `srv_use_ssl` to `show servers state` command for compatibility,
also update associated parsing
- when using default-server ssl setting, and `no-ssl` on server line,
init SSL ctx without activating it
- when triggering ssl API, de/activate SSL connections as requested
- clean ongoing connections as it is done for addr/port changes, without
checking prior server state
example config:
backend be_foo
default-server ssl
server srv0 127.0.0.1:6011 weight 1 no-ssl
show servers state:
5 be_foo 1 srv0 127.0.0.1 2 0 1 1 15 1 0 4 0 0 0 0 - 6011 - -1
where srv0 can switch to ssl later during the runtime:
set server be_foo/srv0 ssl on
5 be_foo 1 srv0 127.0.0.1 2 0 1 1 15 1 0 4 0 0 0 0 - 6011 - 1
Also update existing tests and create a new one.

It was previously a spinlock, and it happens that a number of LB algos
only lock it for lookups, without performing any modification. Let's
first turn it to an rwlock and w-lock it everywhere. This is strictly
identical.
It was carefully checked that every HA_SPIN_LOCK() was turned to
HA_RWLOCK_WRLOCK() and that HA_SPIN_UNLOCK() was turned to
HA_RWLOCK_WRUNLOCK() on this lock. _INIT and _DESTROY were updated too.
As discussed here during 2.1-dev, "monitor-net" is totally obsolete:
https://www.mail-archive.com/haproxy@formilux.org/msg35204.html
It's fundamentally incompatible with usage of SSL, and imposes the
presence of file descriptors with hard-coded syscalls directly in the
generic accept path.
It's very unlikely that anyone has used it in the last 10 years for
anything beyond testing. In the worst case if anyone would depend
on it, replacing it with "http-request return status 200 if ..." and
"mode http" would certainly do the trick.
The keyword is still detected as special by the config parser to help
users update their configurations appropriately.

For now we cannot easily distinguish a peers frontend from another one,
which will be problematic to avoid reporting them when stopping their
listeners. Let's add PR_MODE_PEERS for this. It's not supposed to cause
any issue since all non-HTTP proxies are handled similarly now.
The remaining proxy states were only used to distinguish an enabled
proxy from a disabled one. Due to the initialization order, both
PR_STNEW and PR_STREADY were equivalent after startup, and they
would only differ from PR_STSTOPPED when the proxy is disabled or
shutdown (which is effectively another way to disable it).
Now we just have a "disabled" field which allows to distinguish them.
It's becoming obvious that start_proxies() is only used to print a
greeting message now, that we'd rather get rid of. Probably that
zombify_proxy() and stop_proxy() should be merged once their
differences move to the right place.
The enabled/disabled config options were stored into a "state" field
that is an integer but contained only PR_STNEW or PR_STSTOPPED, which
is a bit confusing, and causes a dependency with proxies. This was
renamed to "disabled" and is used as a boolean. The field was also
moved to the end of the struct to stop creating a hole and fill another
one.
During the startup process we don't have any fdtab nor fd_updt for quite
a long time, and as such some operations on the listeners are not
permitted, such as fd_want_*/fd_stop_* or fd_delete(). The latter is of
particular concern because it's used when stopping a disabled frontend,
and it's performed very early during check_config_validity() while there
is no fdtab yet. The trick till now relies on the listener's state which
is a bit brittle.
There is absolutely no valid reason for stopping a proxy's listeners this
early, we can postpone it after init_pollers() which will at least have
allocated fdtab.
Allow the syntax "${...[*]}" to expand an environment variable
containing several values separated by spaces as individual arguments. A
new flag PARSE_OPT_WORD_EXPAND has been added to toggle this feature on
parse_line invocation. In case of an invalid syntax, a new error
PARSE_ERR_WRONG_EXPAND will be triggered.
This feature has been asked on the github issue #165.
When memory allocation fails in cfg_parse_peers or when an error occurs
while parsing a stick-table, the temporary table and its id must be freed.
This fixes github issue #854. It should be backported as far as 2.0.
Most callers of str2sa_range() need the protocol only to check that it
provides a ->connect() method. It used to be used to verify that it's a
stream protocol, but it might be a bit early to get rid of it. Let's keep
the test for now but move it to str2sa_range() when the new flag PA_O_CONNECT
is present. This way almost all call places could be cleaned from this.
There's a strange test in the server address parsing code that rechecks
the family from the socket which seems to be a duplicate of the previously
removed tests. It will have to be rechecked.
We'll need this so that it can return pointers to stacked protocol in
the future (for QUIC). In addition this removes a lot of tests for
protocol validity in the callers.
Some of them were checked further apart, or after a call to
str2listener() and they were simplified as well.
There's still a trick, we can fail to return a protocol in case the caller
accepts an fqdn for use later. This is what servers do and in this case it
is valid to return no protocol. A typical example is:
server foo localhost:1111
The function will need to use more than just a family, let's pass it
the selected protocol. The caller will then be able to do all the fancy
stuff required to pick the best protocol.
str2listener() was temporarily hacked to support datagram sockets for
the log-forward listeners. This has has an undesirable side effect that
"bind udp@1.2.3.4:5555" was silently accepted as TCP for a bind line.
We don't need this hack anymore since the only user (log-forward) now
relies on str2receiver(). Now such an address will properly be rejected.
This is at least temporary, as the migration at once is way too difficuly.
For now it still creates listeners but only allows DGRAM sockets. This
aims at easing the split between listeners and receivers.
For now only listeners can make use of AF_CUST_UDP and it requires hacks
in the DNS and logsrv code to remap it to AF_INET. Make str2sa_range()
smarter by detecting that it's called for a listener and only set these
protocol families for listeners. This way we can get rid of the hacks.
Just like for inherited sockets, we want to make sure that FDs that are
mentioned in "sockpair@" are actually usable. Right now this test is
performed by the callers, but not everywhere. Typically, the following
config will fail if fd #5 is not bound:
frontend
bind sockpair@5
But this one will pass if fd #6 is not bound:
backend
server s1 sockpair@6
Now both will return an error in such a case:
- 'bind' : cannot use file descriptor '5' : Bad file descriptor.
- 'server s1' : cannot use file descriptor '6' : Bad file descriptor.
As such the test in str2listener() is not needed anymore (and it was
wrong by the way, as it used to test for the socket by overwriting the
local address with a new address that's made of the FD encoded on 16
bits and happens to still be at the same place, but that strictly
depends on whatever the kernel wants to put there).
Since previous patch we know that a successfully bound fd@XXX socket
is returned as its own protocol family from str2sa_range() and not as
AF_CUST_EXISTING_FD anymore o we don't need to check for that case
in str2listener().
If a file descriptor was passed, we can optionally return it. This will
be useful for listening sockets which are both a pre-bound FD and a ready
socket.
