The CHK_ST_SLEEPING state was introduced by commit d114f4a68 ("MEDIUM:
checks: spread the checks load over random threads") to indicate that
a check was not currently bound to a thread and that it could easily
be migrated to any other thread. However it did not start the checks
in this state, meaning that they were not redispatchable on startup.
Sometimes under heavy load (e.g. when using SSL checks with OpenSSL 3.0)
the cost of setting up new connections is so high that some threads may
experience connection timeouts on startup. In this case it's better if
they can transfer their excess load to other idle threads. By just
marking the check as sleeping upon startup, we can do this and
significantly reduce the number of failed initial checks.
The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. Please refer to the following files depending on what you're looking for : - INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install HAProxy - BRANCHES to understand the project's life cycle and what version to use - LICENSE for the project's license - CONTRIBUTING for the process to follow to submit contributions The more detailed documentation is located into the doc/ directory : - doc/intro.txt for a quick introduction on HAProxy - doc/configuration.txt for the configuration's reference manual - doc/lua.txt for the Lua's reference manual - doc/SPOE.txt for how to use the SPOE engine - doc/network-namespaces.txt for how to use network namespaces under Linux - doc/management.txt for the management guide - doc/regression-testing.txt for how to use the regression testing suite - doc/peers.txt for the peers protocol reference - doc/coding-style.txt for how to adopt HAProxy's coding style - doc/internals for developer-specific documentation (not all up to date)
