Add keyword 'verify' on bind:
'verify none': authentication disabled (default)
'verify optional': accept connection without certificate
and process a verify if the client sent a certificate
'verify required': reject connection without certificate
and process a verify if the client send a certificate
Add keyword 'cafile' on bind:
'cafile <path>' path to a client CA file used to verify.
'crlfile <path>' path to a client CRL file used to verify.
We were having several different behaviours with monitor-net and
"mode health" :
- monitor-net on TCP connections was evaluated just after accept(),
did not count a connection on the frontend and were not subject
to tcp-request connection rules, and caused an immediate close().
- monitor-net in HTTP mode was evaluated once the session was
accepted (eg: on top of SSL), returned "HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\n\r\n"
over the connection's data layer and instanciated a session which
was responsible for closing this connection. A connection AND a
session were counted for the frontend ;
- "mode health" with "option httpchk" would do exactly the same as
monitor-net in HTTP mode ;
- "mode health" without "option httpchk" would do the same as above
except that "OK" was returned instead of "HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\n\r\n".
None of them took care of cleaning the input buffer, sometimes resulting
in a TCP reset to be emitted after the last packet if a request was received
over the connection.
Given the inconsistencies and the complexity in keeping all these features
handled at the right position, we now slightly changed the way they are
handled :
- all of them are handled just after the "tcp-request connection" rules,
so that all of them may be blocked using such rules, offering more
flexibility and consistency ;
- no connection handshake is performed anymore for non-TCP modes
- all of them send the response as raw data over the socket, there is no
more difference between TCP and HTTP mode for example (these rules were
never meant to be served over SSL connections and were never documented
as able to do that).
- any possible pending data on the incoming socket is drained before the
response is sent, in order to avoid the risk of a reset.
- none of them exactly did what was documented !
This results in more consistent, more flexible and more accurate handling of
monitor rules, with smaller and more robust code.
Since at least commit a458b679, msg->sov could become negative in
http_parse_chunk_size() if a chunk size wrapped around the buffer.
The effect is that at some point channel_forward() was called with
a negative size, causing all data to be transferred without being
analyzed anymore.
Since haproxy does not support keep-alive with the server yet, this
issue is not really noticeable, as the server closes the connection
in response. Still, when tunnel mode is used or when pretent-keepalive
is used, it is possible to see the problem.
This issue was reported and diagnosed by William Lallemand at
Exceliance.
It is sometimes useful to completely disable accepting new connections
on a frontend during maintenance operations. By setting a frontend's
maxconn to zero, connections are not accepted anymore until the limit
is increased again.
Recent commit 4348fad1 (listeners: use dual-linked lists to chain listeners
with frontends) broke frontend lookup in stats sockets by using the wrong
iterator in the listeners.
Check the protocol pointer and not the socket to report an unknown family
in servers or peers. This can never happen anyway, it's just to be completely
clean.
Cyril Bonté reported a mangled debug output when an invalid request
was sent with a faulty request line. The reason was the use of the
msg->sl.rq.l offset which was not yet initialized in this case. So
we change the way to report such an error so that first we initialize
it to zero before parsing a message, then we use that to know whether
we can trust it or not. If it's still zero, then we display the whole
buffer, truncated by debug_hdr() to the first CR or LF character, which
results in the first line only.
The same operation was performed for the response, which was wrong too.
The global stats socket statement now makes use of the standard bind parsers.
This results in all UNIX socket options being set by proto_uxst and in all
TCP and SSL options being inherited and usable. For example it is now possible
to enable a stats socket over SSL/TCP by appending the "ssl" keyword and a
certificate after "crt".
The code is simplified since we don't have a special case to parse this config
keyword anymore.
It's better to set all listeners to ssl_sock when seeing the "ssl"
keyword that to loop on all of them afterwards just for this. This
also removes some #ifdefs.
Now the stats socket is allocated when the 'stats socket' line is parsed,
and assigned using the standard str2listener(). This has two effects :
- more than one stats socket can now be declared
- stats socket now support protocols other than UNIX
The next step is to remove the duplicate bind config parsing.
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.
Unix permissions are per-bind configuration line and not per listener,
so let's concretize this in the way the config is stored. This avoids
some unneeded loops to set permissions on all listeners.
The access level is not part of the unix perms so it has been moved
away. Once we can use str2listener() to set all listener addresses,
we'll have a bind keyword parser for this one.
Navigating through listeners was very inconvenient and error-prone. Not to
mention that listeners were linked in reverse order and reverted afterwards.
In order to definitely get rid of these issues, we now do the following :
- frontends have a dual-linked list of bind_conf
- frontends have a dual-linked list of listeners
- bind_conf have a dual-linked list of listeners
- listeners have a pointer to their bind_conf
This way we can now navigate from anywhere to anywhere and always find the
proper bind_conf for a given listener, as well as find the list of listeners
for a current bind_conf.
Otherwise we would risk a segfault when checking the config's validity
(eg: when looking for conflicts on ID assignments).
Note that the same issue exists with peers_fe and the global stats_fe. All
listeners should be reviewed and simplified to use a compatible declaration
mode.
When an unknown "bind" keyword is detected, dump the list of all
registered keywords. Unsupported default alternatives are also reported
as "not supported".
The "mode", "uid", "gid", "user" and "group" bind options were moved to
proto_uxst as they are unix-specific.
Note that previous versions had a bug here, only the last listener was
updated with the specified settings. However, it almost never happens
that bind lines contain multiple UNIX socket paths so this is not that
much of a problem anyway.
Registering new SSL bind keywords was not particularly handy as it required
many #ifdef in cfgparse.c. Now the code has moved to ssl_sock.c which calls
a register function for all the keywords.
Error reporting was also improved by this move, because the called functions
build an error message using memprintf(), which can span multiple lines if
needed, and each of these errors will be displayed indented in the context of
the bind line being processed. This is important when dealing with certificate
directories which can report multiple errors.
Now proto_tcp.c is responsible for the 4 settings it handles :
- defer-accept
- interface
- mss
- transparent
These ones do not need to be handled in cfgparse anymore. If support for a
setting is disabled by a missing build option, then cfgparse correctly
reports :
[ALERT] 255/232700 (2701) : parsing [echo.cfg:114] : 'bind' : 'transparent' option is not implemented in this version (check build options).
With the arrival of SSL, the "bind" keyword has received even more options,
all of which are processed in cfgparse in a cumbersome way. So it's time to
let modules register their own bind options. This is done very similarly to
the ACLs with a small difference in that we make the difference between an
unknown option and a known, unimplemented option.
Some settings need to be merged per-bind config line and are not necessarily
SSL-specific. It becomes quite inconvenient to have this ssl_conf SSL-specific,
so let's replace it with something more generic.
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.
Baptiste Assmann observed a crash of 1.5-dev12 occuring when the ssl_sni
fetch was used with no SNI on the input connection and without a prior
has_sni check. A code review revealed several issues :
1) it was possible to call the has_sni and ssl_sni fetch functions with
a NULL data_ctx if the handshake fails or if the connection is aborted
during the handshake.
2) when no SNI is present, strlen() was called with a NULL parameter in
smp_fetch_ssl_sni().
Really, the quality of their code deserves it, it would have been much
harder to figure how to get all the things right at once without looking
there from time to time !
Since it's common enough to discover that some config options are not
supported due to some openssl version or build options, we report the
relevant ones in "haproxy -vv".
A side effect of this change is that the "ssl" keyword on "bind" lines is now
just a boolean and that "crt" is needed to designate certificate files or
directories.
Note that much refcounting was needed to have the free() work correctly due to
the number of cert aliases which can make a context be shared by multiple names.
SSL config holds many parameters which are per bind line and not per
listener. Let's use a per-bind line config instead of having it
replicated for each listener.
At the moment we only do this for the SSL part but this should probably
evolved to handle more of the configuration and maybe even the state per
bind line.
This is very convenient to reduce SSL processing priority compared to
other traffic. This applies to CPU usage only, but has a direct impact
on latency under congestion.
Better avoid calling the data functions upon error or handshake than
having to put conditions everywhere, which are too easy to forget (one
check for CO_FL_ERROR was missing, but this was harmless).
SSL connections take a huge amount of memory, and unfortunately openssl
does not check malloc() returns and easily segfaults when too many
connections are used.
The only solution against this is to provide a global maxsslconn setting
to reject SSL connections above the limit in order to avoid reaching
unsafe limits.
With SSL, connections are much more expensive, so it is important to be
able to limit concurrent connections per listener in order to limit the
memory usage.
