When an appctx is created on the server side, we now set the corresponding
conn-stream to ready state (CS_ST_RDY). When it happens, the backend
conn-stream is in CS_ST_INI state. It is not consistant to let the
conn-stream in this state because it means it is possible to have a target
installed in CS_ST_INI state, while with a connection, the conn-stream is
switch to CS_ST_RDY or CS_ST_EST state.
It is especially anbiguous because we may be tempted to think there is no
endpoint attached to the conn-stream before the CS_ST_CON state. And it is
indeed the reason for a bug leading to a crash because a cs_detach_endp() is
performed if an abort is detected on the backend conn-stream in CS_ST_INI
state. With a mux or a appctx attached to the conn-stream, "->endp" field is
set to NULL. It is unexpected. The API will be changed to be sure it is not
possible. But it exposes a consistency issue with applets.
So, the conn-stream must not stay in CS_ST_INI state when an appctx is
attached. But there is no reason to set it in CS_ST_REQ. The conn-stream
must be set to CS_ST_RDY to handle applets and connections in the same
way. Note that if only the target is set but no appctx is created, the
backend conn-stream is switched from CS_ST_INI to CS_ST_REQ state to be able
to create the corresponding appctx. This part is unchanged.
This patch depends on the commit "MINOR: backend: Don't allow to change
backend applet".
The ambiguity exists on previous versions. But the issue is
2.6-specific. Thus, no backport is needed.
