Amaury Denoyelle 3b851a326b BUG/MEDIUM: quic: do not consider ACK on released stream as error
When an ACK is received by haproxy, a lookup is performed to retrieve
the related emitted frames. For STREAM type frames, a lookup is
performed under quic_conn stream_desc tree. Indeed, the corresponding
stream instance could be already released if multiple ACK were received
refering to the same stream offset, which can happen notably if
retransmission occured.

qc_handle_newly_acked_frm() implements this logic. If the case with an
already released stream is encounted, an error is returned. In the end,
this error is propagated via qc_parse_pkt_frms() into
qc_treat_rx_pkts(), despite being in fact a perfectly valid case. Fix
this by adjusting ACK handling function to return a success value for
the particular case of released stream instead.

The impact of this bug is unknown, but it can have several consequences.
* if the packet with the ACK contains other frames after it, their
  content will be skipped
* the packet won't be acknowledged by haproxy, even if it contains other
  frames and is ack-eliciting. This may cause unneeded retransmission by
  the client.
* RTT sampling information related to this ACK is ignored by haproxy

Finally, it also caused the increment of the quic_conn counter
dropped_parsing (droppars in "show quic" output) which should be
reserved only for real error cases.

This regression is present since the following patch :
  e7578084b0
  MINOR: quic: implement dedicated type for out-of-order stream ACK

Before, qc_handle_newly_acked_frm() return type was always ignored. As
such, no backport is needed.

HAProxy logo

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
