Now the buffers only contain the header and a pointer to the storage
area which can be anywhere. This will significantly simplify buffer
swapping and will make it possible to map chunks on buffers as well.
The buf_empty variable was removed, as now it's enough to have size==0
and area==NULL to designate the empty buffer (thus a non-allocated head
is the empty buffer by default). buf_wanted for now is indicated by
size==0 and area==(void *)1.
The channels and the checks now embed the buffer's head, and the only
pointer is to the storage area. This slightly increases the unallocated
buffer size (3 extra ints for the empty buffer) but considerably
simplifies dynamic buffer management. It will also later permit to
detach unused checks.
The way the struct buffer is arranged has proven quite efficient on a
number of tests, which makes sense given that size is always accessed
and often first, followed by the othe ones.
server.h needs checks.h since it references the struct check, but depending
on the include order it will fail if check.h is included first due to this
one including server.h in turn while it doesn't need it.
All the references to connections in the data path from streams and
stream_interfaces were changed to use conn_streams. Most functions named
"something_conn" were renamed to "something_cs" for this. Sometimes the
connection still is what matters (eg during a connection establishment)
and were not always renamed. The change is significant and minimal at the
same time, and was quite thoroughly tested now. As of this patch, all
accesses to the connection from upper layers go through the pass-through
mux.
HAProxy used to deduce port used for health checks when parsing configuration
at startup time.
Because of this way of working, it makes it complicated to change the port at
run time.
The current patch changes this behavior and makes HAProxy to choose the
port used for health checking when preparing the check task itself.
A new type of error is introduced and reported when no port can be found.
There won't be any impact on performance, since the process to find out the
port value is made of a few 'if' statements.
This patch also introduces a new check state CHK_ST_PORT_MISS: this flag is
used to report an error in the case when HAProxy needs to establish a TCP
connection to a server, to perform a health check but no TCP ports can be
found for it.
And last, it also introduces a new stream termination condition:
SF_ERR_CHK_PORT. Purpose of this flag is to report an error in the event when
HAProxy has to run a health check but no port can be found to perform it.
Causes HAProxy to emit a static string to the agent on every check,
so that you can independently control multiple services running
behind a single agent port.
tcpcheck error messages include the step id where the error occurs.
In some cases, this is not enough. Now, HAProxy also use the comment
field of the latest tcpcheck rule which has been run.
This commit allows HAProxy to parse a new directive in the tcpcheck
ruleset: 'comment'.
It is used to setup comments on the current tcpcheck rules.
A new field is added into the tcpcheck_rule structure.
This field will host a string used as a comment to describe the rule.
Then this comment can be used in logs to report a more user friendly
message on the step which failed during the tcpcheck ruleset.
When the destination IP is dynamically set, we can't use the "target"
to define the proto. This patch ensures that we always use the protocol
associated with the address family. The proto field was removed from
the server and check structs.
The motivation for this is to make checks more independent of each
other to allow further reuse of their infrastructure.
For nowserver->check and server->agent still always use the same values
for the addr and proto fields so this patch should not introduce any
behavioural changes.

commit 9ede66b0 introduced an environment variable (HAPROXY_SERVER_CURCONN) that
was supposed to be dynamically updated, but it was set only once, during its
initialization.
Most of the code provided in this previous patch has been rewritten in order to
easily update the environment variables without reallocating memory during each
check.
Now, HAPROXY_SERVER_CURCONN will contain the current number of connections on
the server at the time of the check.
Lasse Birnbaum Jensen reported an issue when agent checks are used at the same
time as standard healthchecks when SSL is enabled on the server side.
The symptom is that agent checks try to communicate in SSL while it should
manage raw data. This happens because the transport layer is shared between all
kind of checks.
To fix the issue, the transport layer is now stored in each check type,
allowing to use SSL healthchecks when required, while an agent check should
always use the raw_sock implementation.
The fix must be backported to 1.5.
This patch remove all references of standard regex in haproxy. The last
remaining references are only in the regex.[ch] files.
In the file src/checks.c, the original function uses a "pmatch" array.
In fact this array is unused. This patch remove it.
Agent will have the ability to return a weight without indicating an
up/down status. Currently this is not possible, so let's add a 5th
result CHK_RES_NEUTRAL for this purpose. It has been mapped to the
unused HCHK_STATUS_CHECKED which already serves as a neutral delimitor
between initiated checks and those returning a result.
A new tcp-check rule type: connect.
It allows HAProxy to test applications which stand on multiple ports or
multiple applications load-balanced through the same backend.
Health checks can now be paused. This is the status they get when the
server is put into maintenance mode, which is more logical than relying
on the server's state at some places. It will be needed to allow agent
checks to run when health checks are disabled (currently not possible).
At the moment, health checks and agent checks are tied : no agent
check is emitted if no health check is enabled. Other parameters
are considered in the condition for letting checks run. It will
help us selectively enable checks (agent and regular checks) to be
know whether they're enabled/disabled and configured or not. Now
we can already emit an error when trying to enable an unconfigured
agent.
The flag CHK_STATE_RUNNING is misleading as one may believe it means
the state is enabled (just like SRV_RUNNING). Let's rename these two
flags CHK_ST_INPROGRESS and CHK_ST_DISABLED.
We used to have up to 4 sets of flags which were almost all exclusive
to report a check result. And the names were inherited from the old
server states, adding to the confusion. Let's replace that with an
enum handling only the possible combinations :
SRV_CHK_UNKNOWN => CHK_RES_UNKNOWN
SRV_CHK_FAILED => CHK_RES_FAILED
SRV_CHK_PASSED => CHK_RES_PASSED
SRV_CHK_PASSED | SRV_CHK_DISABLE => CHK_RES_CONDPASS
After the move of checks from servers to autonomous checks, we need a
massive cleanup and reordering as it's becoming increasingly difficult
to find the definitions of types and enums.
Nothing was changed, blocks were just moved.
In recent commit 5ecb77f (MEDIUM: checks: add send/expect tcp based check),
bitfields were mistakenly used at some places for the actions. Fortunately,
the only two actions right now are 1 and 2 so they don't share any bit in
common and the bug has no impact.
No backport is needed.
This is a generic health check which can be used to match a
banner or send a request and analyse a server response.
It works in a send/expect ways and many exchange can be done between
HAProxy and a server to decide the server status, making HAProxy able to
speak the server's protocol.
It can send arbitrary regular or binary strings and match content as a
regular or binary string or a regex.

This implements the feature discussed in the earlier thread of killing
connections on backup servers when a non-backup server comes back up. For
example, you can use this to route to a mysql master & slave and ensure
clients don't stay on the slave after the master goes from down->up. I've done
some minimal testing and it seems to work.
[WT: added session flag & doc, moved the killing after logging the server UP,
and ensured that the new server is really usable]
This adds the "on-marked-down shutdown-sessions" statement on "server" lines,
which causes all sessions established on a server to be killed at once when
the server goes down. The task's priority is reniced to the highest value
(1024) so that servers holding many tasks don't cause a massive slowdown due
to the wakeup storm.
Implement decreasing health based on observing communication between
HAProxy and servers.
Changes in this version 2:
- documentation
- close race between a started check and health analysis event
- don't force fastinter if it is not set
- better names for options
- layer4 support
Changes in this version 3:
- add stats
- port to the current 1.4 tree
This patch adds health logging so it possible to check what
was happening before a crash. Failed healt checks are logged if
server is UP and succeeded healt checks if server is DOWN,
so the amount of additional information is limited.
I also reworked the code a little:
- check_status_description[] and check_status_info[] is now
joined into check_statuses[]
- set_server_check_status updates not only s->check_status and
s->check_duration but also s->result making the code simpler
Changes in v3:
- for now calculate and use local versions of health/rise/fall/state,
it is a slow path, no harm should be done. One day we may centralize
processing of the checks and remove the duplicated code.
- also log checks that are restoring current state
- use "conditionally succeeded" for 404 with disable-on-404
Collect information about last health check result,
including L7 code if possible (for example http or smtp
return code) and time took to finish last check.
Health check info is provided on both stats pages (html & csv)
and logged when a server is marked UP or DOWN. Currently active
check are marked with an asterisk, but only in html mode.
Currently there are 14 status codes:
UNK -> unknown
INI -> initializing
SOCKERR -> socket error
L4OK -> check passed on layer 4, no upper layers testing enabled
L4TOUT -> layer 1-4 timeout
L4CON -> layer 1-4 connection problem, for example "Connection refused"
(tcp rst) or "No route to host" (icmp)
L6OK -> check passed on layer 6
L6TOUT -> layer 6 (SSL) timeout
L6RSP -> layer 6 invalid response - protocol error
L7OK -> check passed on layer 7
L7OKC -> check conditionally passed on layer 7, for example
404 with disable-on-404
L7TOUT -> layer 7 (HTTP/SMTP) timeout
L7RSP -> layer 7 invalid response - protocol error
L7STS -> layer 7 response error, for example HTTP 5xx
