Willy Tarreau cff6411f9a [MAJOR] add a connection error state to the stream_interface
Tracking connection status changes was hard, and some code was
redundant. A new SI_ST_CER state was added to the stream interface
to indicate a past connection error, and an SI_FL_ERR flag was
added to report past I/O error. The stream_sock code does not set
the connection to SI_ST_CLO anymore in case of I/O error, it's
the upper layer which does it. This makes it possible to know
exactly when the file descriptors are allocated.

The new SI_ST_CER state permitted to split tcp_connection_status()
in two parts, one processing SI_ST_CON and the other one SI_ST_CER.
Synchronous connection errors now make use of this last state, hence
eliminating duplicate code.

Some ib<->ob copy paste errors were found and fixed, and all entities
setting SI_ST_CLO also shut the buffers down.

Some of these stream_interface specific functions and structures
have migrated to a new stream_interface.c file.

Some types of errors are still not detected by the buffers. For
instance, let's assume the following scenario in one single pass
of process_session: a connection sits in SI_ST_TAR state during
a retry. At TAR expiration, a new connection attempt is made, the
connection is obtained and srv->cur_sess is increased. Then the
buffer timeout is fires and everything is cleared, the new state
becomes SI_ST_CLO. The cleaning code checks that previous state
was either SI_ST_CON or SI_ST_EST to release the connection. But
that's wrong because last state is still SI_ST_TAR. So the
server's connection count does not get decreased.

This means that prev_state must not be used, and must be replaced
by some transition detection instead of level detection.

The following debugging line was useful to track state changes :

  fprintf(stderr, "%s:%d: cs=%d ss=%d(%d) rqf=0x%08x rpf=0x%08x\n", __FUNCTION__, __LINE__,
          s->si[0].state, s->si[1].state, s->si[1].err_type, s->req->flags, s-> rep->flags);

To build haproxy, you will need :
  - GNU make. Neither Solaris nor OpenBSD's make work with this makefile.
    However, specific Makefiles for BSD and OSX are provided.
  - GCC between 2.91 and 4.3. Others may work, but not tested.
  - GNU ld

Also, you might want to build with libpcre support, which will provide a very
efficient regex implementation and will also fix some badness on Solaris's one.

To build haproxy, you have to choose your target OS amongst the following ones
and assign it to the TARGET variable :

  - linux22     for Linux 2.2
  - linux24     for Linux 2.4 and above (default)
  - linux24e    for Linux 2.4 with support for a working epoll (> 0.21)
  - linux24eold for Linux 2.4 with support for a broken  epoll (<= 0.21)
  - linux26     for Linux 2.6 and above
  - solaris     for Solaris 8 or 10 (others untested)
  - freebsd     for FreeBSD 5 to 6.2 (others untested)
  - openbsd     for OpenBSD 3.1 to 3.7 (others untested)
  - generic     for any other OS.
  - custom      to manually adjust every setting

You may also choose your CPU to benefit from some optimizations. This is
particularly important on UltraSparc machines. For this, you can assign
one of the following choices to the CPU variable :

  - i686 for intel PentiumPro, Pentium 2 and above, AMD Athlon
  - i586 for intel Pentium, AMD K6, VIA C3.
  - ultrasparc : Sun UltraSparc I/II/III/IV processor
  - generic : any other processor or no specific optimization. (default)

Alternatively, you may just set the CPU_CFLAGS value to the optimal GCC options
for your platform.

If your system supports PCRE (Perl Compatible Regular Expressions), then you
really should build with libpcre which is between 2 and 10 times faster than
other libc implementations. Regex are used for header processing (deletion,
rewriting, allow, deny). The only inconvenient of libpcre is that it is not
yet widely spread, so if you build for other systems, you might get into
trouble if they don't have the dynamic library. In this situation, you should
statically link libpcre into haproxy so that it will not be necessary to
install it on target systems. Available build options for PCRE are :

  - USE_PCRE=1 to use libpcre, in whatever form is available on your system
    (shared or static)

  - USE_STATIC_PCRE=1 to use a static version of libpcre even if the dynamic
    one is available. This will enhance portability.

  - with no option, use your OS libc's standard regex implemntation (default).
    Warning! group references on Solaris seem broken. Use static-pcre whenever
    possible.

By default, the DEBUG variable is set to '-g' to enable debug symbols. It is
not wise to disable it on uncommon systems, because it's often the only way to
get a complete core when you need one. Otherwise, you can set DEBUG to '-s' to
strip the binary.

For example, I use this to build for Solaris 8 :

    $ make TARGET=solaris CPU=ultrasparc USE_STATIC_PCRE=1

And I build it this way on OpenBSD or FreeBSD :

    $ make -f Makefile.bsd REGEX=pcre DEBUG= COPTS.generic="-Os -fomit-frame-pointer -mgnu"

If you need to pass other defines, includes, libraries, etc... then please
check the Makefile to see which ones will be available in your case, and
use the USE_* variables in the GNU Makefile, or ADDINC, ADDLIB, and DEFINE
variables in the BSD makefiles.
