All files that were including one of the following include files have
been updated to only include haproxy/api.h or haproxy/api-t.h once instead:
- common/config.h
- common/compat.h
- common/compiler.h
- common/defaults.h
- common/initcall.h
- common/tools.h
The choice is simple: if the file only requires type definitions, it includes
api-t.h, otherwise it includes the full api.h.
In addition, in these files, explicit includes for inttypes.h and limits.h
were dropped since these are now covered by api.h and api-t.h.
No other change was performed, given that this patch is large and
affects 201 files. At least one (tools.h) was already freestanding and
didn't get the new one added.
Dragan Dosen found that the listeners lock is not sufficient to protect
the listeners list when proxies are stopping because the listeners are
also unlinked from the protocol list, and under certain situations like
bombing with soft-stop signals or shutting down many frontends in parallel
from multiple CLI connections, it could be possible to provoke multiple
instances of delete_listener() to be called in parallel for different
listeners, thus corrupting the protocol lists.
Such operations are pretty rare, they are performed once per proxy upon
startup and once per proxy on shut down. Thus there is no point trying
to optimize anything and we can use a global lock to protect the protocol
lists during these manipulations.
This fix (or a variant) will have to be backported as far as 1.8.
It's possible to have several protocols per family which is a problem
with the current way the protocols are stored.
This allows to register a new protocol in HAProxy which is not a
protocol in the strict socket definition. It will be used to register a
SOCK_STREAM protocol using socketpair().
Building 1.6 and above on OpenBSD 5.2 fails due to protocol.c not
including sys/types.h before sys/socket.h :
In file included from src/protocol.c:14:
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:162: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before 'u_int8_t'
This fix needs to be backported to 1.6.
