When vtest starts haproxy process, it loops until the moment, when haproxy pidfile is created. When pidfile is created, vtest considers that haproxy process is ready and it starts to perform test commands, in particular, it connects to CLI. It's not very reliable approach to base the check of the process readiness on the PID file. After master-worker architecture refactoring pidfile is created in the early init stage, but master and worker are not yet finished its initialization routines. So, all mcli tests and some tests where we sent commands to CLI start to fail regularly. In vtest at the moment there is no any other approach to check that the process is really ready. So let's add a delay 0.1s before connecting to CLI in all mcli tests and in acl_cli_spaces test.
HAProxy
HAProxy is a free, very fast and reliable reverse-proxy offering high availability, load balancing, and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications.
Installation
The INSTALL file describes how to build HAProxy. A list of packages is also available on the wiki.
Getting help
