proxies, listeners and server shared counters are now managed via helpers added in one of the previous commits. When guid is not set (ie: when not yet assigned), shared counters pointer is allocated using calloc() (local memory) and a flag is set on the shared counters struct to know how to manipulate (and free it). Else if guid is set, then it means that the counters may be shared so while for now we don't actually use a shared memory location the API is ready for that. The way it works, for proxies and servers (for which guid is not known during creation), we first call counters_{fe,be}_shared_get with guid not set, which results in local pointer being retrieved (as if we just manually called calloc() to retrieve a pointer). Later (during postparsing) if guid is set we try to upgrade the pointer from local to shared. Lastly, since the memory location for some objects (proxies and servers counters) may change from creation to postparsing, let's update counters->last_change member directly under counters_{fe,be}_shared_get() so we don't miss it. No change of behavior is expected, this is only preparation work. |

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
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
- 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)
