srv_state has been removed from HTTP state machines, and states
have been split in either TCP states or analyzers. For instance,
the TARPIT state has just become a simple analyzer.
New flags have been added to the struct buffer to compensate this.
The high-level stream processors sometimes need to force a disconnection
without touching a file-descriptor (eg: report an error). But if
they touched BF_SHUTW or BF_SHUTR, the file descriptor would not
be closed. Thus, the two SHUT?_NOW flags have been added so that
an application can request a forced close which the stream interface
will be forced to obey.
During this change, a new BF_HIJACK flag was added. It will
be used for data generation, eg during a stats dump. It
prevents the producer on a buffer from sending data into it.
BF_SHUTR_NOW /* the producer must shut down for reads ASAP */
BF_SHUTW_NOW /* the consumer must shut down for writes ASAP */
BF_HIJACK /* the producer is temporarily replaced */
BF_SHUTW_NOW has precedence over BF_HIJACK. BF_HIJACK has
precedence over BF_MAY_FORWARD (so that it does not need it).
New functions buffer_shutr_now(), buffer_shutw_now(), buffer_abort()
are provided to manipulate BF_SHUT* flags.
A new type "stream_interface" has been added to describe both
sides of a buffer. A stream interface has states and error
reporting. The session now has two stream interfaces (one per
side). Each buffer has stream_interface pointers to both
consumer and producer sides.
The server-side file descriptor has moved to its stream interface,
so that even the buffer has access to it.
process_srv() has been split into three parts :
- tcp_get_connection() obtains a connection to the server
- tcp_connection_failed() tests if a previously attempted
connection has succeeded or not.
- process_srv_data() only manages the data phase, and in
this sense should be roughly equivalent to process_cli.
Little code has been removed, and a lot of old code has been
left in comments for now.
The timeouts, expiration timers and results are now stored in the buffers.
The timers will have to change a bit to become more flexible, and when the
I/O completion functions will be written, the connect_complete() will have
to be extracted from the write() function.
The files are now stored under :
- include/haproxy for the generic includes
- include/types.h for the structures needed within prototypes
- include/proto.h for function prototypes and inline functions
- src/*.c for the C files
Most include files are now covered by LGPL. A last move still needs
to be done to put inline functions under GPL and not LGPL.
Version has been set to 1.3.0 in the code but some control still
needs to be done before releasing.
