HAProxy - Load balancer
c54e5ad9cc
With the rework of the config line parser, we've started to emit a dump
of the initial line underlined by a caret character indicating the error
location. But with extremely large lines it starts to take time and can
even cause trouble to slow terminals (e.g. over ssh), and this becomes
useless. In addition, control characters could be dumped as-is which is
bad, especially when the input file is accidently wrong (an executable).
This patch adds a string sanitization function which isolates an area
around the error position in order to report only that area if the string
is too large. The limit was set to 80 characters, which will result in
roughly 40 chars around the error being reported only, prefixed and suffixed
with "..." as needed. In addition, non-printable characters in the line are
now replaced with '?' so as not to corrupt the terminal. This way invalid
variable names, unmatched quotes etc will be easier to spot.
A typical output is now:
[ALERT] 176/092336 (23852) : parsing [bad.cfg:8]: forbidden first char in environment variable name at position 811957:
...c$PATH$PATH$d(xlc`%?$PATH$PATH$dgc?T$%$P?AH?$PATH$PATH$d(?$PATH$PATH$dgc?%...
