Now http-request auth rules are evaluated in a dedicated function and no longer
handled "in place" during the HTTP rules evaluation. Thus the action name
ACT_HTTP_REQ_AUTH is removed. In additionn, http_reply_40x_unauthorized() is
also removed. This part is now handled in the new action_ptr callback function.
"http-request deny", "http-request tarpit" and "http-response deny" rules now
use the same syntax than http return rules and internally rely on the http
replies. The behaviour is not the same when no argument is specified (or only
the status code). For http replies, a dummy response is produced, with no
payload. For old deny/tarpit rules, the proxy's error messages are used. Thus,
to be compatible with existing configuration, the "default-errorfiles" parameter
is implied. For instance :
http-request deny deny_status 404
is now an alias of
http-request deny status 404 default-errorfiles
No real change here. Instead of using an internal structure to the action rule,
the http return rules are now stored as an http reply. The main change is about
the action type. It is now always set to ACT_CUSTOM. The http reply type is used
to know how to evaluate the rule.
Register the custom action rules "set-var" and "unset-var", that will
call the parse_store() command upon parsing.
These rules are thus built and integrated to the tcp-check ruleset, but
have no further effect for the moment.
It is now possible to append extra headers to the generated responses by HTTP
return actions, while it is not based on an errorfile. For return actions based
on errorfiles, these extra headers are ignored. To define an extra header, a
"hdr" argument must be used with a name and a value. The value is a log-format
string. For instance:
http-request status 200 hdr "x-src" "%[src]" hdr "x-dst" "%[dst]"
Thanks to this new action, it is now possible to return any responses from
HAProxy, with any status code, based on an errorfile, a file or a string. Unlike
the other internal messages generated by HAProxy, these ones are not interpreted
as errors. And it is not necessary to use a file containing a full HTTP
response, although it is still possible. In addition, using a log-format string
or a log-format file, it is possible to have responses with a dynamic
content. This action can be used on the request path or the response path. The
only constraint is to have a responses smaller than a buffer. And to avoid any
warning the buffer space reserved to the headers rewritting should also be free.
When a response is returned with a file or a string as payload, it only contains
the content-length header and the content-type header, if applicable. Here are
examples:
http-request return content-type image/x-icon file /var/www/favicon.ico \
if { path /favicon.ico }
http-request return status 403 content-type text/plain \
lf-string "Access denied. IP %[src] is blacklisted." \
if { src -f /etc/haproxy/blacklist.lst }
<.arg.dns.dns_opts> field in the act_rule structure is now dynamically allocated
when a do-resolve rule is parsed. This drastically reduces the structure size.
It is now possible to set the error message to use when a deny rule is
executed. It may be a specific error file, adding "errorfile <file>" :
http-request deny deny_status 400 errorfile /etc/haproxy/errorfiles/400badreq.http
It may also be an error file from an http-errors section, adding "errorfiles
<name>" :
http-request deny errorfiles my-errors # use 403 error from "my-errors" section
When defined, this error message is set in the HTTP transaction. The tarpit rule
is also concerned by this change.
Now, this action is use its own dedicated function and is no longer handled "in
place" during the TCP rules evaluation. Thus the action name ACT_TCP_CAPTURE is
removed. The action type is set to ACT_CUSTOM and a check function is used to
know if the rule depends on request contents while there is no inspect-delay.
Now, these actions use their own dedicated function and are no longer handled
"in place" during the TCP/HTTP rules evaluation. Thus the action names
ACT_ACTION_TRK_SC0 and ACT_ACTION_TRK_SCMAX are removed. The action type is now
the tracking index. Thus the function trk_idx() is no longer needed.
Now, the early-hint action uses its own dedicated action and is no longer
handled "in place" during the HTTP rules evaluation. Thus the action name
ACT_HTTP_EARLY_HINT is removed. In additionn, http_add_early_hint_header() and
http_reply_103_early_hints() are also removed. This part is now handled in the
new action_ptr callback function.
Now, these actions use their own dedicated function and are no longer handled
"in place" during the HTTP rules evaluation. Thus the action names
ACT_HTTP_*_ACL and ACT_HTTP_*_MAP are removed. The action type is now mapped as
following: 0 = add-acl, 1 = set-map, 2 = del-acl and 3 = del-map.
Now, these actions use their own dedicated function and are no longer handled
"in place" during the HTTP rules evaluation. Thus the action names
ACT_HTTP_SET_HDR and ACT_HTTP_ADD_VAL are removed. The action type is now set to
0 to set a header (so remove existing ones if any and add a new one) or to 1 to
add a header (add without remove).
Now, these actions use their own dedicated function and are no longer handled
"in place" during the HTTP rules evaluation. Thus the action names
ACT_HTTP_REPLACE_HDR and ACT_HTTP_REPLACE_VAL are removed. The action type is
now set to 0 to evaluate the whole header or to 1 to evaluate every
comma-delimited values.
The function http_transform_header_str() is renamed to http_replace_hdrs() to be
more explicit and the function http_transform_header() is removed. In fact, this
last one is now more or less the new action function.
The lua code has been updated accordingly to use http_replace_hdrs().
<action> field in the act_rule structure is now an integer. The act_name values
are used for all actions without action function (but it is not a pre-requisit
though) or the action will have no effect. But for all other actions, any
integer value may used, only the action function will take care of it. The
default for such actions is ACT_CUSTOM.
Some flags can now be set on an action when it is registered. The flags are
defined in the act_flag enum. For now, only ACT_FLAG_FINAL may be set on an
action to specify if it stops the rules evaluation. It is set on
ACT_ACTION_ALLOW, ACT_ACTION_DENY, ACT_HTTP_REQ_TARPIT, ACT_HTTP_REQ_AUTH,
ACT_HTTP_REDIR and ACT_TCP_CLOSE actions. But, when required, it may also be set
on custom actions.
Consequently, this flag is checked instead of the action type during the
configuration parsing to trigger a warning when a rule inhibits all the
following ones.
The flags in the act_flag enum have been renamed act_opt. It means ACT_OPT
prefix is used instead of ACT_FLAG. The purpose of this patch is to reserve the
action flags for the actions configuration.
When TCP and HTTP rules are evaluated, if an action function (action_ptr field
in the act_rule structure) is defined for a given action, it is now always
called in priority over the test on the action type. Concretly, for now, only
custom actions define it. Thus there is no change. It just let us the choice to
extend the action type beyond the existing ones in the enum.
Info used by HTTP rules manipulating the message itself are splitted in several
structures in the arg union. But it is possible to group all of them in a unique
struct. Now, <arg.http> is used by most of these rules, which contains:
* <arg.http.i> : an integer used as status code, nice/tos/mark/loglevel or
action id.
* <arg.http.str> : an IST used as header name, reason string or auth realm.
* <arg.http.fmt> : a log-format compatible expression
* <arg.http.re> : a regular expression used by replace rules
Arguments used by actions are never released during HAProxy deinit. Now, it is
possible to specify a function to do so. ".release_ptr" field in the act_rule
structure may be set during the configuration parsing to a specific deinit
function depending on the action type.
When HTTP/TCP rules are evaluated, especially HTTP ones, some results are
possible for normal actions and not for custom ones. So missing return codes
(ACT_RET_) have been added to let custom actions act as normal ones. Concretely
following codes have been added:
* ACT_RET_DENY : deny the request/response. It must be handled by the caller
* ACT_RET_ABRT : abort the request/response, handled by action itsleft.
* ACT_RET_INV : invalid request/response
Allow the sc-set-gpt0 action to set GPT0 to a value dynamically evaluated from
its <expr> argument (in addition to the existing static <int> alternative).
This code should be now used by action to stop at the same time the rules
processing and the possible following processings. And from its side, the return
code ACT_RET_STOP should be used to only stop rules processing.
So concretely, for TCP rules, there is no changes. ACT_RET_STOP and ACT_RET_DONE
are handled the same way. However, for HTTP rules, ACT_RET_STOP should now be
mapped on HTTP_RULE_RES_STOP and ACT_RET_DONE on HTTP_RULE_RES_DONE. So this
way, a action will have the possibilty to stop all processing or only rules
processing.
Note that changes about the TCP is done in this commit but changes about the
HTTP will be done in another one because it will fix a bug in the same time.
This patch must be backported to 2.0 because a bugfix depends on it.
Now we atomically allocate the my_regex struct within function
regex_comp() and compile the regex or free both in case of failure. The
pointer to the allocated my_regex struct is returned directly. The
my_regex* argument to regex_comp() is removed.
Function regex_free() was modified so that it systematically frees the
my_regex entry. The function does nothing when called with a NULL as
argument (like free()). It will avoid existing risk of not properly
freeing the initialized area.
Other structures are also updated in order to be compatible (the ones
related to Lua and action rules).
The 'do-resolve' action is an http-request or tcp-request content action
which allows to run DNS resolution at run time in HAProxy.
The name to be resolved can be picked up in the request sent by the
client and the result of the resolution is stored in a variable.
The time the resolution is being performed, the request is on pause.
If the resolution can't provide a suitable result, then the variable
will be empty. It's up to the admin to take decisions based on this
statement (return 503 to prevent loops).
Read carefully the documentation concerning this feature, to ensure your
setup is secure and safe to be used in production.
This patch creates a global counter to track various errors reported by
the action 'do-resolve'.
This patch adds a "early_hint" struct to "arg" union of "act_rule" struct
and parse "early-hint" http-request keyword with it using the same
code as for "(add|set)-header" parser.
The older 'rsprep' directive allows modification of the status reason.
Extend 'http-response set-status' to take an optional string of the new
status reason.
http-response set-status 418 reason "I'm a coffeepot"
Matching updates in Lua code:
- AppletHTTP.set_status
- HTTP.res_set_status

This commit introduces "tcp-request session" rules. These are very
much like "tcp-request connection" rules except that they're processed
after the handshake, so it is possible to consider SSL information and
addresses rewritten by the proxy protocol header in actions. This is
particularly useful to track proxied sources as this was not possible
before, given that tcp-request content rules are processed after each
HTTP request. Similarly it is possible to assign the proxied source
address or the client's cert to a variable.
This configures the client-facing connection to receive a NetScaler
Client IP insertion protocol header before any byte is read from the
socket. This is equivalent to having the "accept-netscaler-cip" keyword
on the "bind" line, except that using the TCP rule allows the PROXY
protocol to be accepted only for certain IP address ranges using an ACL.
This is convenient when multiple layers of load balancers are passed
through by traffic coming from public hosts.
The 'set-src' action was not available for tcp actions The action code
has been converted into a function in proto_tcp.c to be used for both
'http-request' and 'tcp-request connection' actions.
Both http and tcp keywords are registered in proto_tcp.c
This new target can be called from the frontend or the backend. It
is evaluated just before the backend choice and just before the server
choice. So, the input stream or HTTP request can be forwarded to a
server or to an internal service.
This flag is used by custom actions to know that they're called for the
first time. The only case where it's not set is when they're resuming
from a yield. It will be needed to let them know when they have to
allocate some resources.
This new flag indicates to a custom action that it must not yield because
it will not be called anymore. This addresses an issue introduced by commit
bc4c1ac ("MEDIUM: http/tcp: permit to resume http and tcp custom actions"),
which made it possible to yield even after the last call and causes Lua
actions not to be stopped when the session closes. Note that the Lua issue
is not fixed yet at this point. Also only TCP rules were handled, for now
HTTP rules continue to let the action yield since we don't know whether or
not it is a final call.
Since commit bc4c1ac ("MEDIUM: http/tcp: permit to resume http and tcp
custom actions"), some actions may yield and be called back when new
information are available. Unfortunately some of them may continue to
yield because they simply don't know that it's the last call from the
rule set. For this reason we'll need to pass a flag to the custom
action to pass such information and possibly other at the same time.
This private configuration pointer is used for storing some configuration
data associated the keyword, So many keywords can use the same parse
function, and this one can use a discriminator.
Regex header file is missing in types/action.h
Repported by Conrad Hoffmann
I cannot build the current dev's master HEAD (ec3c37d) because of this error:
> In file included from include/proto/proto_http.h:26:0,
> from src/stick_table.c:26:

The struct act_rule defined in action.h includes a full struct my_regex
without #include-ing regex.h. Both gcc 5.2.0 and clang 3.6.2 do not allow this.
Before this patch, two type of custom actions exists: ACT_ACTION_CONT and
ACT_ACTION_STOP. ACT_ACTION_CONT is a non terminal action and ACT_ACTION_STOP is
a terminal action.
Note that ACT_ACTION_STOP is not used in HAProxy.
This patch remove this behavior. Only type type of custom action exists, and it
is called ACT_CUSTOM. Now, the custion action can return a code indicating the
required behavior. ACT_RET_CONT wants that HAProxy continue the current rule
list evaluation, and ACT_RET_STOP wants that HAPRoxy stops the the current rule
list evaluation.
This patch is inspired by Bowen Ni's proposal and it is based on his first
implementation:
With Lua integration in HAProxy 1.6, one can change the request method,
path, uri, header, response header etc except response line.
I'd like to contribute the following methods to allow modification of the
response line.
[...]
There are two new keywords in 'http-response' that allows you to rewrite
them in the native HAProxy config. There are also two new APIs in Lua that
allows you to do the same rewriting in your Lua script.
Example:
Use it in HAProxy config:
*http-response set-code 404*
Or use it in Lua script:
*txn.http:res_set_reason("Redirect")*
I dont take the full patch because the manipulation of the "reason" is useless.
standard reason are associated with each returned code, and unknown code can
take generic reason.
So, this patch can set the status code, and the reason is automatically adapted.
This patch normalize the return code of the configuration parsers. Before
these changes, the tcp action parser returned -1 if fail and 0 for the
succes. The http action returned 0 if fail and 1 if succes.
The normalisation does:
- ACT_RET_PRS_OK for succes
- ACT_RET_PRS_ERR for failure
Each (http|tcp)-(request|response) action use the same method
for looking up the action keyword during the cofiguration parsing.
This patch mutualize the code.
This patch merges the conguration keyword struct. Each declared configuration
keyword struct are similar with the others. This patch simplify the code.
Action function can return 3 status:
- error if the action encounter fatal error (like out of memory)
- yield if the action must terminate his work later
- continue in other cases
For performances considerations, some actions are not processed by remote
function. They are directly processed by the function. Some of these actions
does the same things but for different processing part (request / response).
This patch give the same name for the same actions, and change the normalization
of the other actions names.
This patch is ONLY a rename, it doesn't modify the code.
This patch group the action name in one file. Some action are called
many times and need an action embedded in the action caller. The main
goal is to have only one header file grouping all definitions.
