The server state and weight was reworked to handle
"pending" values updated by checks/CLI/LUA/agent.
These values are commited to be propagated to the
LB stack.
In further dev related to multi-thread, the commit
will be handled into a sync point.
Pending values are named using the prefix 'next_'
Current values used by the LB stack are named 'cur_'
This string is used in sample fetches so it is safe to use a preallocated trash
chunk instead of a buffer dynamically allocated during HAProxy startup.
First, this variable does not need to be publicly exposed because it is only
used by stick_table functions. So we declare it as a global static in
stick_table.c file. Then, it is useless to use a pointer. Using a plain struct
variable avoids any dynamic allocation.
swap_buffer is a global variable only used by buffer_slow_realign. So it has
been moved from global.h to buffer.c and it is allocated by init_buffer
function. deinit_buffer function has been added to release it. It is also used
to destroy the buffers' pool.
During the configuration parsing, log buffers are reallocated when
global.max_syslog_len is updated. This can be done serveral time. So, instead of
doing it serveral time, we do it only once after the configuration parsing.
Now, we use init_log_buffers and deinit_log_buffers to, respectively, initialize
and deinitialize log buffers used for syslog messages.
These functions have been introduced to be used by threads, to deal with
thread-local log buffers.
Trash buffers are reallocated when "tune.bufsize" parameter is changed. Here, we
just move the realloc after the configuration parsing.
Given that the config parser doesn't rely on the trash size, it should be
harmless.
Now, we use init_trash_buffers and deinit_trash_buffers to, respectively,
initialize and deinitialize trash buffers (trash, trash_buf1 and trash_buf2).
These functions have been introduced to be used by threads, to deal with
thread-local trash buffers.
Use a cpuset_t instead of assuming the cpu mask is an unsigned long.
This should fix setting the CPU affinity on FreeBSD >= 11.
This patch should be backported to stable releases.
As mentionned in commit cf4e496c9 ("BUG/MEDIUM: build without openssl broken"),
commit 872f9c213 ("MEDIUM: ssl: add basic support for OpenSSL crypto engine")
broke the build without openssl support. But the former did only fix it when
openssl is not enabled, but not when it's not installed on the system :
In file included from src/haproxy.c:112:
include/proto/ssl_sock.h:24:25: openssl/ssl.h: No such file or directory
In file included from src/haproxy.c:112:
include/proto/ssl_sock.h:45: error: syntax error before "SSL_CTX"

include/proto/ssl_sock.h:76: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
include/proto/ssl_sock.h:77: error: syntax error before '*' token
Now we also surround the include with #ifdef USE_OPENSSL to fix this. No
backport is needed since openssl async engines were not backported.
When several stick-tables were configured with several peers sections,
only a part of them could be synchronized: the ones attached to the last
parsed 'peers' section. This was due to the fact that, at least, the peer I/O handler
refered to the wrong peer section list, in fact always the same: the last one parsed.
The fact that the global peer section list was named "struct peers *peers"
lead to this issue. This variable name is dangerous ;).
So this patch renames global 'peers' variable to 'cfg_peers' to ensure that
no such wrong references are still in use, then all the functions wich used
old 'peers' variable have been modified to refer to the correct peer list.
Must be backported to 1.6 and 1.7.
When starting the master worker with -sf or -st, the PIDs will be reused
on the next reload, which is a problem if new processes on the system
took those PIDs.
This patch ensures that we don't register old PIDs in the reload system
when launching the master worker.
Don't copy the -x argument anymore in copy_argv() since it's already
allocated in mworker_reload().
Make the copy_argv() more consistent when used with multiple arguments
to strip.
It prevents multiple -x on reload, which is not supported.
This patch fixes a segfault in the command line parser.
When haproxy is launched with -x with no argument and -x is the latest
option in argv it segfaults.
Use usage() insteads of exit() on error.
Commit cb11fd2 ("MEDIUM: mworker: wait mode on reload failure")
introduced a regression, when HAProxy is used in daemon mode, it exits 1
after forking its children.
HAProxy should exit(0), the exit(EXIT_FAILURE) was expected to be use
when the master fail in master-worker mode.
Thanks to Emmanuel Hocdet for reporting this bug. No backport needed.
The commit 872f9c213 ("MEDIUM: ssl: add basic support for OpenSSL crypto
engine") broke the build without openssl support.
The ssl_free_dh() function is not defined when USE_OPENSSL is not
defined and leads to a compilation failure.
This patch ensure that the children will exit when the master quits,
even if the master didn't send any signal.
The master and the workers are connected through a pipe, when the pipe
closes the children leave.
This option exits every workers when one of the current workers die.
It allows you to monitor the master process in order to relaunch
everything on a failure.
For example it can be used with systemd and Restart=on-failure in a spec
file.
In master worker mode, you can't specify the stats socket where you get
your listeners FDs on a reload, because the command line of the re-exec
is launched by the master.
To solve the problem, when -x is found on the command line, its
parameter is rewritten on a reexec with the first stats socket with the
capability to send sockets. It tries to reuse the original parameter if
it has this capability.
In Master Worker mode, when the reloading of the configuration fail,
the process is exiting leaving the children without their father.
To handle this, we register an exit function with atexit(3), which is
reexecuting the binary in a special mode. This particular mode of
HAProxy don't reload the configuration, it only loops on wait().
The master-worker will reload itself on SIGUSR2/SIGHUP
It's inherited from the systemd wrapper, when the SIGUSR2 signal is
received, the master process will reexecute itself with the -sf flag
followed by the PIDs of the children.
In the systemd wrapper, the children were using a pipe to notify when
the config has been parsed and when the new process is ready. The goal
was to ensure that the process couldn't reload during the parsing of the
configuration, before signals were send to old process.
With the new mworker model, the master parses the configuration and is
aware of all the children. We don't need a pipe, but we need to block
those signals before the end of a reload, to ensure that the process
won't be killed during a reload.
The SIGUSR1 signal is forwarded to the children to soft-stop HAProxy.
The SIGTERM and SIGINT signals are forwarded to the children in order to
terminate them.
This commit remove the -Ds systemd mode in HAProxy in order to replace
it by a more generic master worker system. It aims to replace entirely
the systemd wrapper in the near future.
The master worker mode implements a new way of managing HAProxy
processes. The master is in charge of parsing the configuration
file and is responsible for spawning child processes.
The master worker mode can be invoked by using the -W flag. It can be
used either in background mode (-D) or foreground mode. When used in
background mode, the master will fork to daemonize.
In master worker background mode, chroot, setuid and setgid are done in
each child rather than in the master process, because the master process
will still need access to filesystem to reload the configuration.
This patch adds the global 'ssl-engine' keyword. First arg is an engine
identifier followed by a list of default_algorithms the engine will
operate.
If the openssl version is too old, an error is reported when the option
is used.
When HAProxy is running with multiple processes and some listeners
arebound to processes, the unused sockets were not closed in the other
processes. The aim was to be able to send those listening sockets using
the -x option.
However to ensure the previous behavior which was to close those
sockets, we provided the "no-unused-socket" global option.
This patch changes this behavior, it will close unused sockets which are
not in the same process as an expose-fd socket, making the
"no-unused-socket" option useless.
The "no-unused-socket" option was removed in this patch.
Overall we do have an issue with the severity of a number of errors. Most
fatal errors are reported with ERR_FATAL (which prevents startup) and not
ERR_ABORT (which stops parsing ASAP), but check_config_validity() is still
called on ERR_FATAL, and will most of the time report bogus errors. This
is what caused smp_resolve_args() to be called on a number of unparsable
ACLs, and it also is what reports incorrect ordering or unresolvable
section names when certain entries could not be properly parsed.
This patch stops this domino effect by simply aborting before trying to
further check and resolve the configuration when it's already know that
there are fatal errors.
A concrete example comes from this config :
userlist users :
user foo insecure-password bar
listen foo
bind :1234
mode htttp
timeout client 10S
timeout server 10s
timeout connect 10s
stats uri /stats
stats http-request auth unless { http_auth(users) }
http-request redirect location /index.html if { path / }
It contains a colon after the userlist name, a typo in the client timeout value,
another one in "mode http" which cause some other configuration elements not to
be properly handled.
Previously it would confusingly report :
[ALERT] 108/114851 (20224) : parsing [err-report.cfg:1] : 'userlist' cannot handle unexpected argument ':'.
[ALERT] 108/114851 (20224) : parsing [err-report.cfg:6] : unknown proxy mode 'htttp'.
[ALERT] 108/114851 (20224) : parsing [err-report.cfg:7] : unexpected character 'S' in 'timeout client'
[ALERT] 108/114851 (20224) : Error(s) found in configuration file : err-report.cfg
[ALERT] 108/114851 (20224) : parsing [err-report.cfg:11] : unable to find userlist 'users' referenced in arg 1 of ACL keyword 'http_auth' in proxy 'foo'.
[WARNING] 108/114851 (20224) : config : missing timeouts for proxy 'foo'.
| While not properly invalid, you will certainly encounter various problems
| with such a configuration. To fix this, please ensure that all following
| timeouts are set to a non-zero value: 'client', 'connect', 'server'.
[WARNING] 108/114851 (20224) : config : 'stats' statement ignored for proxy 'foo' as it requires HTTP mode.
[WARNING] 108/114851 (20224) : config : 'http-request' rules ignored for proxy 'foo' as they require HTTP mode.
[ALERT] 108/114851 (20224) : Fatal errors found in configuration.
The "requires HTTP mode" errors are just pollution resulting from the
improper spelling of this mode earlier. The unresolved reference to the
userlist is caused by the extra colon on the declaration, and the warning
regarding the missing timeouts is caused by the wrong character.
Now it more accurately reports :
[ALERT] 108/114900 (20225) : parsing [err-report.cfg:1] : 'userlist' cannot handle unexpected argument ':'.
[ALERT] 108/114900 (20225) : parsing [err-report.cfg:6] : unknown proxy mode 'htttp'.
[ALERT] 108/114900 (20225) : parsing [err-report.cfg:7] : unexpected character 'S' in 'timeout client'
[ALERT] 108/114900 (20225) : Error(s) found in configuration file : err-report.cfg
[ALERT] 108/114900 (20225) : Fatal errors found in configuration.
Despite not really a fix, this patch should be backported at least to 1.7,
possibly even 1.6, and 1.5 since it hardens the config parser against
certain bad situations like the recently reported use-after-free and the
last null dereference.
When running with multiple process, if some proxies are just assigned
to some processes, the other processes will just close the file descriptors
for the listening sockets. However, we may still have to provide those
sockets when reloading, so instead we just try hard to pretend those proxies
are dead, while keeping the sockets opened.
A new global option, no-reused-socket", has been added, to restore the old
behavior of closing the sockets not bound to this process.
Add the "-x" flag, that takes a path to a unix socket as an argument. If
used, haproxy will connect to the socket, and asks to get all the
listening sockets from the old process. Any failure is fatal.
This is needed to get seamless reloads on linux.

When SIGUSR1 is received, haproxy enters in soft-stop and quits when no
connection remains.
It can happen that the instance remains alive for a long time, depending
on timeouts and traffic. This option ensures that soft-stop won't run
for too long.
Example:
global
hard-stop-after 30s # Once in soft-stop, the instance will remain
# alive for at most 30 seconds.
The trash buffers are becoming increasingly complex to deal with due to
the code's modularity allowing some functions to be chained and causing
the same chunk buffers to be used multiple times along the chain, possibly
corrupting each other. In fact the trash were designed from scratch for
explicitly not surviving a function call but string manipulation makes
this impossible most of the time while not fullfilling the need for
reliable temporary chunks.
Here we introduce the ability to allocate a temporary trash chunk which
is reserved, so that it will not conflict with the trash chunks other
functions use, and will even support reentrant calls (eg: build_logline).
For this, we create a new pool which is exactly the size of a usual chunk
buffer plus the size of the chunk struct so that these chunks when allocated
are exactly the same size as the ones returned by get_trash_buffer(). These
chunks may fail so the caller must check them, and the caller is also
responsible for freeing them.
The code focuses on minimal changes and ease of reliable backporting
because it will be needed in stable versions in order to support next
patch.
UDP sockets used to send DNS queries are created before fork happens and
this is a big problem because all the processes (in case of a
configuration starting multiple processes) share the same socket. Some
processes may consume responses dedicated to an other one, some servers
may be disabled, some IPs changed, etc...
As a workaround, this patch close the existing socket and create a new
one after the fork() has happened.
[wt: backport this to 1.7]
The function dns_init_resolvers() is used to initialize socket used to
send DNS queries.
This patch gives the function the ability to close a socket before
re-opening it.
[wt: this needs to be backported to 1.7 for next fix]
In systemd mode (-Ds), the master haproxy process is waiting for each
child to exit in a specific order. If a process die when it's not his
turn, it will become a zombie process until every processes exit.
The master is now waiting for any process to exit in any order.
This patch should be backported to 1.7, 1.6 and 1.5.
Historically a lot of SSL global settings were stored into the global
struct, but we've reached a point where there are 3 ifdefs in it just
for this, and others in haproxy.c to initialize it.
This patch moves all the private fields to a new struct "global_ssl"
stored in ssl_sock.c. This includes :
char *crt_base;
char *ca_base;
char *listen_default_ciphers;
char *connect_default_ciphers;
int listen_default_ssloptions;
int connect_default_ssloptions;
int tune.sslprivatecache; /* Force to use a private session cache even if nbproc > 1 */
unsigned int tune.ssllifetime; /* SSL session lifetime in seconds */
unsigned int tune.ssl_max_record; /* SSL max record size */
unsigned int tune.ssl_default_dh_param; /* SSL maximum DH parameter size */
int tune.ssl_ctx_cache; /* max number of entries in the ssl_ctx cache. */
The "tune" part was removed (useless here) and the occasional "ssl"
prefixes were removed as well. Thus for example instead of
global.tune.ssl_default_dh_param
we now have :
global_ssl.default_dh_param
A few initializers were present in the constructor, they could be brought
back to the structure declaration.
A few other entries had to stay in global for now. They concern memory
calculationn (used in haproxy.c) and stats (used in stats.c).
The code is already much cleaner now, especially for global.h and haproxy.c
which become readable.
tlskeys_finalize_config() was the only reason for haproxy.c to still
require ifdef and includes for ssl_sock. This one fits perfectly well
in the late initializers so it was changed to be registered with
hap_register_post_check().
Now we can simply check the transport layer at run time and decide
whether or not to initialize or destroy these entries. This removes
other ifdefs and includes from cfgparse.c, haproxy.c and hlua.c.
Instead of hard-coding all SSL destruction in cfgparse.c and haproxy.c,
we now register this new function as the transport layer's destroy_bind_conf()
and call it only when defined. This removes some non-obvious SSL-specific
code and #ifdefs from cfgparse.c and haproxy.c
This finishes to clean up the zlib-specific parts. It also unbreaks recent
commit b97c6fb ("CLEANUP: compression: use the build options list to report
the algos") which broke USE_ZLIB due to MAXWBITS not being defined anymore
in haproxy.c.
We replaced global.deviceatlas with global_deviceatlas since there's no need
to store all this into the global section. This removes the last #ifdefs,
and now the code is 100% self-contained in da.c. The file da.h was now
removed because it was only used to load dac.h, which is more easily
loaded directly from da.c. It provides another good example of how to
integrate code in the future without touching the core parts.
We replaced global._51degrees with global_51degrees since there's no need
to store all this into the global section. This removes the last #ifdefs,
and now the code is 100% self-contained in 51d.c. The file 51d.h was now
removed because it was only used to load 51Degrees.h, which is more easily
loaded from 51d.c. It provides a good example of how to integrate code in
the future without touching the core parts.
We replaced global.wurfl with global_wurfl since there's no need to store
all this into the global section. This removes the last #ifdefs, and now
the code is 100% self-contained in wurfl.c. It provides a good example of
how to integrate code in the future without touching the core parts.
deinit_51degrees() is not called anymore from haproxy.c, removing
2 #ifdefs and one include. The function was made static. The include
file still includes 51Degrees.h which is needed by global.h and 51d.c
so it was not touched beyond this last function removal.
By registering the deinit function we avoid another #ifdef in haproxy.c.
The ha_wurfl_deinit() function has been made static and unexported. Now
proto/wurfl.h is totally empty, the code being self-contained in wurfl.c,
so the useless .h has been removed.
The 3 device detection engines stop at the same place in deinit()
with the usual #ifdefs. Similar to the other functions we can have
some late deinitialization functions. These functions do not return
anything however so we have to use a different type.
Instead of having a #ifdef in the main init code we now use the registered
init functions. Doing so also enables error checking as errors were previously
reported as alerts but ignored. Also they were incorrect as the 'status'
variable was hidden by a second one and was always reporting DA_SYS (which
is apparently an error) in every case including the case where no file was
loaded. The init_deviceatlas() function was unexported since it's not used
outside of this place anymore.
This removes some #ifdefs from the main haproxy code path. Function
init_51degrees() now returns ERR_* instead of exit(1) on error, and
this function was made static and is not exported anymore.
This removes some #ifdefs from the main haproxy code path and enables
error checking. The current code only makes use of warnings even for
some errors that look serious. While this choice is questionnable, it
has been kept as-is, and only the return codes were adapted to ERR_WARN
to at least report that some warnings were emitted. ha_wurfl_init() was
unexported as it's not needed anymore.
Instead of calling the checks directly from the init code, we now
register the start_checks() function to be run at this point. This
also allows to unexport the check init function and to remove one
include from haproxy.c.
There's a significant amount of late initialization calls which are
performed after the point where we exit in check mode. These calls
are used to allocate resource and perform certain slow operations.
Let's have a way to register some functions which need to be called
there instead of having this multitude of #ifdef in the init path.
This removes 2 #ifdef, an include, an ugly construct and a wild "extern"
declaration from haproxy.c. The message indicating that compression is
*not* enabled is not there anymore.
Many extensions now report some build options to ease debugging, but
this is now being done at the expense of code maintainability. Let's
provide a registration function to do this so that we can start to
remove most of the #ifdefs from haproxy.c (18 currently just for a
single function).
<run_queue> is used to track the number of task in the run queue and
<run_queue_cur> is a copy used for the reporting purpose. These counters has
been renamed, respectively, <tasks_run_queue> and <tasks_run_queue_cur>. So the
naming is consistent between tasks and applets.
[wt: needed for next fixes, backport to 1.7 and 1.6]
As for tasks, 2 counters has been added to track :
* the total number of applets : nb_applets
* the number of active applets : applets_active_queue
[wt: needed for next fixes, to backport to 1.7 and 1.6]
Now it is possible to use variables attached to a process. The scope name is
'proc'. These variables are released only when HAProxy is stopped.
'tune.vars.proc-max-size' directive has been added to confiure the maximum
amount of memory used by "proc" variables. And because memory accounting is
hierachical for variables, memory for "proc" vars includes memory for "sess"
vars.
This code has been moved from haproxy.c to sample.c and the function
release_sample_expr can now be called from anywhere to release a sample
expression. This function will be used by the stream processing offload engine
(SPOE).
It is very common when validating a configuration out of production not to
have access to the same resolvers and to fail on server address resolution,
making it difficult to test a configuration. This option simply appends the
"none" method to the list of address resolution methods for all servers,
ensuring that even if the libc fails to resolve an address, the startup
sequence is not interrupted.
Server addresses are not resolved anymore upon the first pass so that we
don't fail if an address cannot be resolved by the libc. Instead they are
processed all at once after the configuration is fully loaded, by the new
function srv_init_addr(). This function only acts on the server's address
if this address uses an FQDN, which appears in server->hostname.
For now the function does two things, to followup with HAProxy's historical
default behavior:
1. apply server IP address found in server-state file if runtime DNS
resolution is enabled for this server
2. use the DNS resolver provided by the libc
If none of the 2 options above can find an IP address, then an error is
returned.
All of this will be needed to support the new server parameter "init-addr".
For now, the biggest user-visible change is that all server resolution errors
are dumped at once instead of causing a startup failure one by one.
Currently, the function which applies server states provided by the
"old" process is applied after configuration sanity check. This results
in the impossibility to check the validity of the state file during a
regular config check, implying a full start is required, which can be
a problem sometimes.
This patch moves the loading of server_state file before MODE_CHECK.
The only reason wurfl/wurfl.h was needed outside of wurfl.c was to expose
wurfl_handle which is a pointer to a structure, referenced by global.h.
By just storing a void* there instead, we can confine all wurfl code to
wurfl.c, which is really nice.
WURFL is a high-performance and low-memory footprint mobile device
detection software component that can quickly and accurately detect
over 500 capabilities of visiting devices. It can differentiate between
portable mobile devices, desktop devices, SmartTVs and any other types
of devices on which a web browser can be installed.
In order to add WURFL device detection support, you would need to
download Scientiamobile InFuze C API and install it on your system.

Right now there is an issue with the way the maintenance flags are
propagated upon startup. They are not propagate, just copied from the
tracked server. This implies that depending on the server's order, some
tracking servers may not be marked down. For example this configuration
does not work as expected :
server s1 1.1.1.1:8000 track s2
server s2 1.1.1.1:8000 track s3
server s3 1.1.1.1:8000 track s4
server s4 wtap:8000 check inter 1s disabled
It results in s1/s2 being up, and s3/s4 being down, while all of them
should be down.
The only clean way to process this is to run through all "root" servers
(those not tracking any other server), and to propagate their state down
to all their trackers. This is the same algorithm used to propagate the
state changes. It has to be done both to compute the IDRAIN flag and the
IMAINT flag. However, doing so requires that tracking servers are not
marked as inherited maintenance anymore while parsing the configuration
(and given that it is wrong, better drop it).
This fix also addresses another side effect of the bug above which is
that the IDRAIN/IMAINT flags are stored in the state files, and if
restored while the tracked server doesn't have the equivalent flag,
the servers may end up in a situation where it's impossible to remove
these flags. For example in the configuration above, after removing
"disabled" on server s4, the other servers would have remained down,
and not anymore with this fix. Similarly, the combination of IMAINT
or IDRAIN with their respective forced modes was not accepted on
reload, which is wrong as well.
This bug has been present at least since 1.5, maybe even 1.4 (it came
with tracking support). The fix needs to be backported there, though
the srv-state parts are irrelevant.
This commit relies on previous patch to silence warnings on startup.
Pierre Cheynier found that there's a persistent issue with the systemd
wrapper. Too fast reloads can lead to certain old processes not being
signaled at all and continuing to run. The problem was tracked down as
a race between the startup and the signal processing : nothing prevents
the wrapper from starting new processes while others are still starting,
and the resulting pid file will only contain the latest pids in this
case. This can happen with large configs and/or when a lot of SSL
certificates are involved.
In order to solve this we want the wrapper to wait for the new processes
to complete their startup. But we also want to ensure it doesn't wait for
nothing in case of error.
The solution found here is to create a pipe between the wrapper and the
sub-processes. The wrapper waits on the pipe and the sub-processes are
expected to close this pipe once they completed their startup. That way
we don't queue up new processes until the previous ones have registered
their pids to the pid file. And if anything goes wrong, the wrapper is
immediately released. The only thing is that we need the sub-processes
to know the pipe's file descriptor. We pass it in an environment variable
called HAPROXY_WRAPPER_FD.
It was confirmed both by Pierre and myself that this completely solves
the "zombie" process issue so that only the new processes continue to
listen on the sockets.
It seems that in the future this stuff could be moved to the haproxy
master process, also getting rid of an environment variable.
This fix needs to be backported to 1.6 and 1.5.
With Linux officially introducing SO_REUSEPORT support in 3.9 and
its mainstream adoption we have seen more people running into strange
SO_REUSEPORT related issues (a process management issue turning into
hard to diagnose problems because the kernel load-balances between the
new and an obsolete haproxy instance).
Also some people simply want the guarantee that the bind fails when
the old process is still bound.
This change makes SO_REUSEPORT configurable, introducing the command
line argument "-dR" and the noreuseport configuration directive.
A backport to 1.6 should be considered.
pcre_version() returns the running PCRE release, not the release
haproxy was built with.
This simple string fix should be backported to supported releases,
as the output may be confusing.
When the requested amount of FDs cannot be allocated, setrlimit() fails.
That's bad because if the limit is set to 1024 and we need 10000, we
stay on 1024 while we could possibly raise it to 4096 thanks to rlim_max.
This patch takes care of trying to assign rlim_cur to rlim_max on failure
so that we get as much as possible if we can't get all we need. The case
is particularly visible when starting haproxy as a non-privileged user
and a large maxconn is specified in the configuration.
Another point of doing this is that it is the only way to allow us to
close inherited FDs upon fork(), ie those between rlim_cur and rlim_max.
This patch may be backported to 1.6 and 1.5.
global.rlimit_nofile contains the mxa number of file descriptors that
can be allocated, except if the user is not allowed to reach this limit,
where it still contains the initially requested value. It is important
that this value always matches what is really configured so that it is
properly reported in the stats and that we can use it later to close
all FDs without wasting time closing impossible FDs.
This fix may be backported to 1.6 and 1.5.
This patch removes setlocale from the main function. It was introduced
by commit 379d9c7 ("MEDIUM: init: allow directory as argument of -f")
in 1.7-dev a few commits ago after a discussion on the mailing list.
Some regex may have different behaviours depending on the
locale. Some LUA scripts may change their behaviour too
(http://lua-users.org/wiki/LuaLocales).
Without this patch (haproxy is using setlocale) :
$ cat locale.cfg
defaults
mode http
frontend test
bind :9000
mode http
use_backend testbk if { hdr_reg(X-Test) ^\w+$ }
backend testbk
mode http
server s 127.0.0.1:80
$ LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 ./haproxy -f locale.cfg
$ curl -i -H "X-Test: chec" localhost:9000
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
...
$ LANG=C ./haproxy -f locale.cfg
$ curl -i -H "X-Test: chec" localhost:9000
HTTP/1.0 503 Service Unavailable
...
If -f argument is a directory add all the files (and only files) it
containes to the config files list.
These files are added in lexical order (respecting LC_COLLATE).
Only files with ".cfg" extension are added.
Only non hidden files (not prefixed with ".") are added.
Symlink are followed.
The -f order is still respected:
$ tree -a rootdir
rootdir
|-- dir1
||-- .6.cfg
||-- 1.cfg
||-- 2
||-- 3.cfg
||-- 4.cfg -> 1.cfg
||-- 5 -> 1.cfg
||-- 7.cfg -> .
|`-- dir4
|`-- 8.cfg
|-- dir2
||-- 10.cfg
|`-- 9.cfg
|-- dir3
|`-- 11.cfg
|-- link -> dir3/
|-- root1
|-- root2
`-- root3
$ ./haproxy -C rootdir -f root2 -f dir2 -f root3 -f dir1 \
-f link -f root1
root2
dir2/10.cfg
dir2/9.cfg
root3
dir1/1.cfg
dir1/3.cfg
dir1/4.cfg
link/11.cfg
root1
This can be useful on systemd where you can't change the haproxy
commande line options on service reload.

In C89, "void *" is automatically promoted to any pointer type. Casting
the result of malloc/calloc to the type of the LHS variable is therefore
unneeded.
Most of this patch was built using this Coccinelle patch:
@@
type T;
@@
- (T *)
(\(lua_touserdata\|malloc\|calloc\|SSL_get_app_data\|hlua_checkudata\|lua_newuserdata\)(...))

Unfortunately, either Coccinelle or I is too limited to detect situation
where a complex RHS expression is of type "void *" and therefore casting
is not needed. Those cases were manually examined and corrected.

- BUG/MINOR: log: GMT offset not updated when entering/leaving DST
GMT offset used in local time formats was computed at startup, but was not updated when DST status changed while running.
For example these two RFC5424 syslog traces where emitted 5 seconds apart, just before and after DST changed:
<14>1 2016-03-27T01:59:58+01:00 bunch-VirtualBox haproxy 2098 - - Connect ...
<14>1 2016-03-27T03:00:03+01:00 bunch-VirtualBox haproxy 2098 - - Connect ...
It looked like they were emitted more than 1 hour apart, unlike with the fix:
<14>1 2016-03-27T01:59:58+01:00 bunch-VirtualBox haproxy 3381 - - Connect ...
<14>1 2016-03-27T03:00:03+02:00 bunch-VirtualBox haproxy 3381 - - Connect ...
This patch should be backported to 1.6 and partially to 1.5 (no fix needed in log.c).
The +E mode escapes characters '"', '\' and ']' with '\' as prefix. It
mostly makes sense to use it in the RFC5424 structured-data log formats.
Example:
log-format-sd %{+Q,+E}o\ [exampleSDID@1234\ header=%[capture.req.hdr(0)]]
HTTP compression has been rewritten to use the filter API. This is more a PoC
than other thing for now. It allocates memory to work. So, if only for that, it
should be rewritten.
In the mean time, the implementation has been refactored to allow its use with
other filters. However, there are limitations that should be respected:
- No filter placed after the compression one is allowed to change input data
(in 'http_data' callback).
- No filter placed before the compression one is allowed to change forwarded
data (in 'http_forward_data' callback).
For now, these limitations are informal, so you should be careful when you use
several filters.
About the configuration, 'compression' keywords are still supported and must be
used to configure the HTTP compression behavior. In absence of a 'filter' line
for the compression filter, it is added in the filter chain when the first
compression' line is parsed. This is an easy way to do when you do not use other
filters. But another filter exists, an error is reported so that the user must
explicitly declare the filter.
For example:
listen tst
...
compression algo gzip
compression offload
...
filter flt_1
filter compression
filter flt_2
...
This patch adds the support of filters in HAProxy. The main idea is to have a
way to "easely" extend HAProxy by adding some "modules", called filters, that
will be able to change HAProxy behavior in a programmatic way.
To do so, many entry points has been added in code to let filters to hook up to
different steps of the processing. A filter must define a flt_ops sutrctures
(see include/types/filters.h for details). This structure contains all available
callbacks that a filter can define:
struct flt_ops {
/*
* Callbacks to manage the filter lifecycle
*/
int (*init) (struct proxy *p);
void (*deinit)(struct proxy *p);
int (*check) (struct proxy *p);
/*
* Stream callbacks
*/
void (*stream_start) (struct stream *s);
void (*stream_accept) (struct stream *s);
void (*session_establish)(struct stream *s);
void (*stream_stop) (struct stream *s);
/*
* HTTP callbacks
*/
int (*http_start) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_start_body) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_start_chunk) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_data) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_last_chunk) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_end_chunk) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_chunk_trailers)(struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_end_body) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
void (*http_end) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
void (*http_reset) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_pre_process) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
int (*http_post_process) (struct stream *s, struct http_msg *msg);
void (*http_reply) (struct stream *s, short status,
const struct chunk *msg);
};
To declare and use a filter, in the configuration, the "filter" keyword must be
used in a listener/frontend section:
frontend test
...
filter <FILTER-NAME> [OPTIONS...]
The filter referenced by the <FILTER-NAME> must declare a configuration parser
on its own name to fill flt_ops and filter_conf field in the proxy's
structure. An exemple will be provided later to make it perfectly clear.
For now, filters cannot be used in backend section. But this is only a matter of
time. Documentation will also be added later. This is the first commit of a long
list about filters.
It is possible to have several filters on the same listener/frontend. These
filters are stored in an array of at most MAX_FILTERS elements (define in
include/types/filters.h). Again, this will be replaced later by a list of
filters.
The filter API has been highly refactored. Main changes are:
* Now, HA supports an infinite number of filters per proxy. To do so, filters
are stored in list.
* Because filters are stored in list, filters state has been moved from the
channel structure to the filter structure. This is cleaner because there is no
more info about filters in channel structure.
* It is possible to defined filters on backends only. For such filters,
stream_start/stream_stop callbacks are not called. Of course, it is possible
to mix frontend and backend filters.
* Now, TCP streams are also filtered. All callbacks without the 'http_' prefix
are called for all kind of streams. In addition, 2 new callbacks were added to
filter data exchanged through a TCP stream:
- tcp_data: it is called when new data are available or when old unprocessed
data are still waiting.
- tcp_forward_data: it is called when some data can be consumed.
* New callbacks attached to channel were added:
- channel_start_analyze: it is called when a filter is ready to process data
exchanged through a channel. 2 new analyzers (a frontend and a backend)
are attached to channels to call this callback. For a frontend filter, it
is called before any other analyzer. For a backend filter, it is called
when a backend is attached to a stream. So some processing cannot be
filtered in that case.
- channel_analyze: it is called before each analyzer attached to a channel,
expects analyzers responsible for data sending.
- channel_end_analyze: it is called when all other analyzers have finished
their processing. A new analyzers is attached to channels to call this
callback. For a TCP stream, this is always the last one called. For a HTTP
one, the callback is called when a request/response ends, so it is called
one time for each request/response.
* 'session_established' callback has been removed. Everything that is done in
this callback can be handled by 'channel_start_analyze' on the response
channel.
* 'http_pre_process' and 'http_post_process' callbacks have been replaced by
'channel_analyze'.
* 'http_start' callback has been replaced by 'http_headers'. This new one is
called just before headers sending and parsing of the body.
* 'http_end' callback has been replaced by 'channel_end_analyze'.
* It is possible to set a forwarder for TCP channels. It was already possible to
do it for HTTP ones.
* Forwarders can partially consumed forwardable data. For this reason a new
HTTP message state was added before HTTP_MSG_DONE : HTTP_MSG_ENDING.
Now all filters can define corresponding callbacks (http_forward_data
and tcp_forward_data). Each filter owns 2 offsets relative to buf->p, next and
forward, to track, respectively, input data already parsed but not forwarded yet
by the filter and parsed data considered as forwarded by the filter. A any time,
we have the warranty that a filter cannot parse or forward more input than
previous ones. And, of course, it cannot forward more input than it has
parsed. 2 macros has been added to retrieve these offets: FLT_NXT and FLT_FWD.
In addition, 2 functions has been added to change the 'next size' and the
'forward size' of a filter. When a filter parses input data, it can alter these
data, so the size of these data can vary. This action has an effet on all
previous filters that must be handled. To do so, the function
'filter_change_next_size' must be called, passing the size variation. In the
same spirit, if a filter alter forwarded data, it must call the function
'filter_change_forward_size'. 'filter_change_next_size' can be called in
'http_data' and 'tcp_data' callbacks and only these ones. And
'filter_change_forward_size' can be called in 'http_forward_data' and
'tcp_forward_data' callbacks and only these ones. The data changes are the
filter responsability, but with some limitation. It must not change already
parsed/forwarded data or data that previous filters have not parsed/forwarded
yet.
Because filters can be used on backends, when we the backend is set for a
stream, we add filters defined for this backend in the filter list of the
stream. But we must only do that when the backend and the frontend of the stream
are not the same. Else same filters are added a second time leading to undefined
behavior.
The HTTP compression code had to be moved.
So it simplifies http_response_forward_body function. To do so, the way the data
are forwarded has changed. Now, a filter (and only one) can forward data. In a
commit to come, this limitation will be removed to let all filters take part to
data forwarding. There are 2 new functions that filters should use to deal with
this feature:
* flt_set_http_data_forwarder: This function sets the filter (using its id)
that will forward data for the specified HTTP message. It is possible if it
was not already set by another filter _AND_ if no data was yet forwarded
(msg->msg_state <= HTTP_MSG_BODY). It returns -1 if an error occurs.
* flt_http_data_forwarder: This function returns the filter id that will
forward data for the specified HTTP message. If there is no forwarder set, it
returns -1.
When an HTTP data forwarder is set for the response, the HTTP compression is
disabled. Of course, this is not definitive.
When memmax is forced using "-m", the per-process memory limit is enforced
using setrlimit(), but this value is not used to compute the automatic
maxconn limit. In addition, the per-process memory limit didn't consider
the fact that the shared SSL cache only needs to be accounted once.
The doc was also fixed to clearly state that "-m" is global and not per
process. It makes sense because people who use -m want to protect the
system's resources regardless of whatever appears in the configuration.
