Since commit 8de8ed4f48 ("MEDIUM: connections: Allow taking over
connections from other tgroups.") we got this partially absurd
build warning when disabling threads:
src/backend.c: In function 'conn_backend_get':
src/backend.c:1371:27: warning: array subscript [0, 0] is outside array bounds of 'struct tgroup_info[1]' [-Warray-bounds]
The reason is that gcc sees that curtgid is not equal to tgid which is
defined as 1 in this case, thus it figures that tgroup_info[curtgid-1]
will be anything but zero and that doesn't fit. It is ridiculous as it
is a perfect case of dead code elimination which should not warrant a
warning. Nevertheless we know we don't need to do this when threads are
disabled and in this case there will not be more than 1 thread group, so
we can happily use that preliminary test to help the compiler eliminate
the dead condition and avoid spitting this warning.
No backport is needed.

Installation
The INSTALL file describes how to build HAProxy. A list of packages is also available on the wiki.
Getting help
The discourse and the mailing-list are available for questions or configuration assistance. You can also use the slack or IRC channel. Please don't use the issue tracker for these.
The issue tracker is only for bug reports or feature requests.
Documentation
The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. It is available in text format as well as HTML. The wiki is also meant to replace the old architecture guide.
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
