The "via" column includes a link to the tracked server but instead of closing
the link with a </a> tag, a new tag is opened.
This typo should also be backported to 1.4
Some consistency checks cannot be performed between frontends, backends
and peers at the moment because there is no way to check for intersection
between processes bound to some processes when the number of processes is
higher than the number of bits in a word.
So first, let's limit the number of processes to the machine's word size.
This means nbproc will be limited to 32 on 32-bit machines and 64 on 64-bit
machines. This is far more than enough considering that configs rarely go
above 16 processes due to scalability and management issues, so 32 or 64
should be fine.
This way we'll ensure we can always build a mask of all the processes a
section is bound to.
Last fix did address the issue for inlined patterns, but it was not
enough because the flags are lost as well when updating patterns
dynamically over the CLI.
Also if the same file was used once with -i and another time without
-i, their references would have been merged and both would have used
the same matching method.
It's appear that the patterns have two types of flags. The first
ones are relative to the pattern matching, and the second are
relative to the pattern storage. The pattern matching flags are
the same for all the patterns of one expression. Now they are
stored in the expression. The storage flags are information
returned by the pattern mathing function. This information is
relative to each entry and is stored in the "struct pattern".
Now, the expression matching flags are forwarded to the parse
and index functions. These flags are stored during the
configuration parsing, and they are used during the parse and
index actions.
This issue was introduced in dev23 with the major pattern rework,
and is a continuation of commit a631fc8 ("BUG/MAJOR: patterns: -i
and -n are ignored for inlined patterns"). No backport is needed.
These flags are only passed to pattern_read_from_file() which
loads the patterns from a file. The functions used to parse the
patterns from the current line do not provide the means to pass
the pattern flags so they're lost.
This issue was introduced in dev23 with the major pattern rework,
and was reported by Graham Morley. No backport is needed.
We used to emit either 1.0 or 1.1 depending on whether we were sending
chunks or not. This condition is useless, better always send 1.1. Also
that way at least clients and intermediary proxies know we speak 1.1.
The "Connection: close" header is still set anyway.
OK, for once it cannot easily know this one, and certain versions are
emitting this harmless warning :
src/dumpstats.c: In function 'http_stats_io_handler':
src/dumpstats.c:4507:19: warning: 'last_fwd' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
This basically reimplements commit f3221f9 ("MEDIUM: stats: add support
for HTTP keep-alive on the stats page") which was reverted by commit
51437d2 after Igor Chan reported a broken stats page caused by the bug
fix by previous commit.
This patch replace the word <name> by the word <file>. This word defines
the (string) returned by show "map/acl". This patch also update
documentation to explain how is composed the map or acl identifier.
This flag is no longer used. The last place using this, are the display
of the result of pattern matching in the cli command "get map" or "get
acl".
The first parameter of this command is the reference of the file used to
perform the lookup.
If acl is shared with a map, the "add acl" command must be blocked
because it not take a sample on his parameters. The absense of this
parameter can cause error with corresponding maps.
This patch adds new display type. This display returns allocated string,
when the string is flush into buffers, it is freed. This permit to
return the content of "memprintf(err, ...)" messages.
The pat_ref_add functions has changed to return error.
Each pattern displayed is associated to the value of his pattern
reference. This value can be used for deleting the entry. It is useful
with complex regex: the users are not forced to write the regex with all
the amiguous chars and escaped chars on the CLI.
Before this patch, the "get map/acl" function try to convert and display
the sample. This behavior is not efficient because some type like the
regex cannot be reversed and displayed as string.
This patch display the original stored reference.
The pattern reference are stored with two identifiers: the unique_id and
the reference.
The reference identify a file. Each file with the same name point to the
same reference. We can register many times one file. If the file is
modified, all his dependencies are also modified. The reference can be
used with map or acl.
The unique_id identify inline acl. The unique id is unique for each acl.
You cannot force the same id in the configuration file, because this
repport an error.
The format of the acl and map listing through the "socket" has changed
for displaying these new ids.
This patch extract the expect_type variable from the "struct pattern" to
"struct pattern_head". This variable is set during the declaration of
ACL and MAP. With this change, the function "pat_parse_len()" become
useless and can be replaced by "pat_parse_int()".
Implicit ACLs by default rely on the fetch's output type, so let's simply do
the same for all other ones. It has been verified that they all match.
Sometimes the same pattern file is used with the same index, parse and
parse_smp functions. If this two condition are true, these two pattern
are identical and the same struct can be used.
This patch add the following socket command line options:
show acl [<id>]
clear acl <id>
get acl <id> <pattern>
del acl <id> <pattern>
add acl <id> <pattern>
The system used for maps is backported in the pattern functions.
Some functions needs to change the sample associated to pattern. This
new pointer permit to return the a pointer to the sample pointer. The
caller can use or change the value.
This commit adds a delete function for patterns. It looks up all
instances of the pattern to delete and deletes them all. The fetch
keyword declarations have been extended to point to the appropriate
delete function.
The original get map display function set the comma separator after each
word displayed. This is not efficient because we cannot knew if the
displayed word is the last.
This new system set the comma separator before the displayed word, and
independant "\n" is set a the end of the function.
Before this commit, the pattern_exec_match() function returns the
associate sample, the associate struct pattern or the associate struct
pattern_tree. This is complex to use, because we can check the type of
information returned.
Now the function return always a "struct pattern". If <fill> is not set,
only the value of the pointer can be used as boolean (NULL or other). If
<fill> is set, you can use the <smp> pointer and the pattern
information.
If information must be duplicated, it is stored in trash buffer.
Otherwise, the pattern can point on existing strings.
The operations applied on types SMP_T_CSTR and SMP_T_STR are the same,
but the check code and the declarations are double, because it must
declare action for SMP_T_C* and SMP_T_*. The declared actions and checks
are the same. this complexify the code. Only the "conv" functions can
change from "C*" to "*"
Now, if a function needs to modify input string, it can call the new
function smp_dup(). This one duplicate data in a trash buffer.
Before this patch, the indexation function check the declared patttern
matching function and index the data according with this function. This
is not useful to add some indexation mode.
This commit adds dedicated indexation function. Each struct pattern is
associated with one indexation function. This function permit to index
data according with the type of pattern and with the type of match.
This commit separes the "struct list" used for the chain the "struct
pattern" which contain the pattern data. Later, this change will permit
to manipulate lists ans trees with the same "struct pattern".
Each pattern parser take only one string. This change is reported to the
function prototype of the function "pattern_register()". Now, it is
called with just one string and no need to browse the array of args.
It happens that latest change broke some monitoring tools which expect the
field to be found at the same position as indicated in the doc. Let's move
it to the last column instead.
I forgot to remove one human_time() in the CSV output for the backend's
lastsess entry in previous patch, which caused the value to be reported
as "1m18s" for example instead of 78.
Summary:
Track and report last session time on the stats page for each server
in every backend, as well as the backend.
This attempts to address the requirement in the ROADMAP
- add a last activity date for each server (req/resp) that will be
displayed in the stats. It will be useful with soft stop.
The stats page reports this as time elapsed since last session. This
change does not adequately address the requirement for long running
session (websocket, RDP... etc).
Yesterday's commit 12833bb ("MINOR: cli: add the new "show pools" command")
missed a "break" statement causing trouble to the "show map" command. Spotted
by Thierry Fournier.
show pools
Dump the status of internal memory pools. This is useful to track memory
usage when suspecting a memory leak for example. It does exactly the same
as the SIGQUIT when running in foreground except that it does not flush
the pools.
Just like the previous commit, we sometimes want to limit the rate of
incoming SSL connections. While it can be done for a frontend, it was
not possible for a whole process, which makes sense when multiple
processes are running on a system to server multiple customers.
The new global "maxsslrate" setting is usable to fix a limit on the
session rate going to the SSL frontends. The limits applies before
the SSL handshake and not after, so that it saves the SSL stack from
expensive key computations that would finally be aborted before being
accounted for.
The same setting may be changed at run time on the CLI using
"set rate-limit ssl-session global".
It's sometimes useful to be able to limit the connection rate on a machine
running many haproxy instances (eg: per customer) but it removes the ability
for that machine to defend itself against a DoS. Thus, better also provide a
limit on the session rate, which does not include the connections rejected by
"tcp-request connection" rules. This permits to have much higher limits on
the connection rate without having to raise the session rate limit to insane
values.
The limit can be changed on the CLI using "set rate-limit sessions global",
or in the global section using "maxsessrate".
In addition to previous outputs, we also emit the cumulated number of
connections, the cumulated number of requests, the maximum allowed
SSL connection concurrency, the current number of SSL connections and
the cumulated number of SSL connections. This will help troubleshoot
systems which experience memory shortage due to SSL.
It's easier and safer to rely on conn_xprt_ready() everywhere than to
check the flag itself. It will also simplify adding extra checks later
if needed. Some useless controls for !xprt have been removed, as the
XPRT_READY flag itself guarantees xprt is set.
It's easier and safer to rely on conn_ctrl_ready() everywhere than to
check the flag itself. It will also simplify adding extra checks later
if needed. Some useless controls for !ctrl have been removed, as the
CTRL_READY flag itself guarantees ctrl is set.
We're completely changing the way FDs will be polled. There will be no
more speculative I/O since we'll know the exact FD state, so these will
only be cached events.
First, let's fix a few field names which become confusing. "spec_e" was
used to store a speculative I/O event state. Now we'll store the whole
R/W states for the FD there. "spec_p" was used to store a speculative
I/O cache position. Now let's clearly call it "cache".

The value of the variable "appctx->ctx.map.ent" is used after the loop,
but its value has changed. The variable "value" is initialized and
contains the good value.
This is a recent bug, no backport is needed.
Since commit 6b66f3e ([MAJOR] implement autonomous inter-socket forwarding)
introduced in 1.3.16-rc1, we've been relying on a stupid mechanism to wake
up the task after a write, which was an exact copy-paste of the reader side.
The principle was that if we empty a buffer and there's no forwarding
scheduled or if the *producer* is not in a connected state, then we wake
the task up.
That does not make any sense. It happens to wake up too late sometimes (eg,
when the request analyser waits for some room in the buffer to start to
work), and leads to unneeded wakeups in client-side keep-alive, because
the task is woken up when the response is sent, while the analysers are
simply waiting for a new request.
In order to fix this, we introduce a new channel flag : CF_WAKE_WRITE. It
is designed so that an analyser can explicitly request being notified when
some data were written. It is used only when the HTTP request or response
analysers need to wait for more room in the buffers. It is automatically
cleared upon wake up.
The flag is also automatically set by the functions which try to write into
a buffer from an applet when they fail (bi_putblk() etc...).
That allows us to remove the stupid condition above and avoid some wakeups.
In http-server-close and in http-keep-alive modes, this reduces from 4 to 3
the average number of wakeups per request, and increases the overall
performance by about 1.5%.
