Optimization: Avoid more SBuf::cow() reallocations (#744)
This optimization contains two parts:
1. A no-brainer part that allows SBuf to reuse MemBlob area previously

follow the "cowAvoided" code path modifications in SBuf::cow().
2. A part based on a rule of thumb: memmove is usually better than
malloc+memcpy. This part of the optimization (follow the "cowShift"
path) is only activated if somebody has consume()d from the buffer
earlier. The implementation is based on the heuristic that most
consuming callers follow the usual append-consume-append-... usage
pattern and want to preserve their buffer capacity.
MemBlob::consume() API mimics SBuf::consume() and std::string::erase(),
ignoring excessive number of bytes rather than throwing an error.

Do not stall while debugging a scan of an empty store_table (#699)
Non-SMP Squid and each SMP kid allocate a store_table hash. With large
caches, some allocated store_table may have millions of buckets.
Recently we discovered that it is almost impossible to debug SMP Squid
with a large but mostly empty disk cache because the disker registration
times out while store_table is being built -- the disker process is
essentially blocked on a very long debugging loop.
The code suspends the loop every 500 entries (to take care of tasks like
kid registration), but there are no pauses when scanning millions of
empty hash buckets where every bucket prints two debug lines.
Squid now does not report empty store_table buckets explicitly. When
dealing with large caches, the debugged process may still be blocked for
a few hundred milliseconds (instead of many seconds) while scanning the
entire (mostly empty) store_table. Optimizing that should be done as a
part of the complex "store search" API refactoring.
peerDigestHandleReply() was missing a premature EOF check. The existing
peerDigestFetchedEnough() cannot detect EOF because it does not have
access to receivedData.length used to indicate the EOF condition. We did
not adjust peerDigestFetchedEnough() because it is abused to check both
post-I/O state and the state after each digest processing step. The
latter invocations lack access to receivedData.length and should not
really bother with EOF anyway.

parseTlsHandshake: Got something other than TLS ... Cannot SslBump
tunnelOnError: may have forgotten client data; send error: 40
This bug was caused by a4d576d. ResolvedPeers::retryPath() used
connection object pointers to find the original path location under the
incorrect assumption that the Connection pointers never change. That
assumption was wrong for persistent connections: ResolvedPeers stores a
half-baked Connection object rather than the corresponding open
Connection object that the unfortunate caller got from fwdPconnPool and
passed to ResolvedPeers::retryPath().
While working on a fix, we discovered a second reason why the pointer
comparison was a bad idea (and why a simpler fix of comparing addresses
rather than pointers was also a bad idea): The peer selection code
promises to deliver unique destinations, but we now suspect that, under
presumably rare circumstances, it may deliver duplicates. This broken
promise is now an out-of-scope XXX in PeerSelector::addSelection().
Squid now eliminates the search (and the previously documented concern
about its slow speed) by remembering Connection's position in the
destination array. The position is remembered in a smart Connection
pointer (compatible with Comm::ConnectionPointer) so that the rest of
the code (that does not really care about all this) is preserved largely

Since negative caching support was repaired in master commit 91870bf, it

Reforward CONNECT after TLS handshake failure with peer (#489)
When Squid received a CONNECT request and attempted to establish a
secure connection to an SSL cache_peer, it did not try the next
available destination after a TLS negotiation failure.
Why retry such TLS negotiation failures? Peer B may not have the same
misconfiguration that led to the negotiation failure when talking to
peer A. Admins may improve fault tolerance by using pools of different
peers or pools of identical peers that are reconfigured one by one. And
FwdState already does this -- flags.connected_okay is not set until TLS
negotiation is successful.
SslBump: Support parsing GREASEd (and future) TLS handshakes (#663)
A peeking or staring Squid aborted TLS connections containing a GREASE
version in the supported_versions handshake extension (e.g., 0x3a3a).
Here is a sample cache.log error (debug_options ALL,1 83,2):
The same problem would apply to some other "unsupported" (and currently
non-existent) TLS versions (e.g., 0x0400). The growing popularity of
GREASE values exposed the bug (just like RFC 8710 was designed to do).
Squid now ignores all unsupported-by-Squid TLS versions in handshake
extensions. Squid still requires a supported TLS version for
framing-related handshake fields -- no changes there.
It is difficult to define "supported" in this context precisely because
a peeking Squid only observes the TLS handshake. Our handshake parser
may report the following versions: SSL v2.0, SSL v3.0, and TLS v1.x
(with x >= 0). This logic allows us to safely parse the handshake (no
framing errors) and continue to make version-based decisions like
disabling OpenSSL TLS v1.3 support when the agents are negotiating TLS
v1.3+ (master cd29a42). Also, access logs benefit from this "support"
going beyond TLS v1.2 even though Squid cannot bump most TLS v1.3+
handshakes.
Squid was and still is compliant with the "MUST NOT treat GREASE values
differently from any unknown value" requirement of RFC 8710.
Also added source code comments to mark other places where unsupported
(for some definition of "support") TLS values, including GREASE values
may appear.
Folks studying debugging logs (where GREASE values may appear) will
probably either recognize their easy-to-remember 0x?A?A pattern or

Support admin-authorized HTTP Upgrade-driven (RFC 7230 Section 6.7)
protocol switching. The new http_upgrade_request_protocols configuration
directive allows admin to control what client Upgrade offer(s) are
forwarded to the server. Squid does not automatically check whether the
server selection matches one of the client offers, but the admin can
deny unacceptable server responses using http_reply_access.
By default, Squid still does not forward any Upgrade headers,
effectively blocking an upgrade attempt.
Squid itself does not understand the protocols being upgraded to and
participates in the upgraded communication only as a dumb TCP proxy.
Detail TLS and CONNECT cache_peer negotiation failures (#518)
Before PeerConnector and Tunneler were introduced, FwdState and
TunnelStateData naturally owned their to-server connection. When CONNECT
and TLS negotiation were outsourced, we kept that ownership to minimize
changes and simplify negotiation code. That was wrong because FwdState
and TunnelStateData, as connection owners, had to monitor for connection
closures but could not distinguish basic TCP peer closures from complex
CONNECT/TLS negotiation failures that required further detailing. The
user got generic error messages instead of details known to negotiators.
Now, Ssl::PeerConnector and Http::Tunneler jobs own the connection they
work with and, hence, are responsible for monitoring it and, upon
successful negotiation, returning it to the initiators. In case of
problems, these jobs send detailed errors to the initiators instead.
Passing connection ownership to and from a helper job is difficult
because the connection may be either closed or begin to close (e.g. by
shutdown) while the callback is pending without working close handlers.
Many changes focus on keeping Connection::fd in sync with Comm.
Also improved tunnel.cc mimicking of (better) FwdState code: Partially
open connections after Comm::ConnOpener failures are now closed, and
Http::Tunneler failures are now retried.
Happy Eyeballs: Do not discard viable reforwarding destinations (#567)
When HappyConnOpener starts opening two connections, both destinations
are removed from the shared destinations list. As soon as one connection
(X) succeeded, the other destination (Y) was essentially forgotten. If
FwdState, after using X, decided to reforward the request, then the
request was never reforwarded to Y. We now return Y to the list.
Also abort the still-active ConnOpener job upon the termination of its
"parent" HappyConnOpener job. Without an explicit termination, those
abandoned child jobs wasted OS and Squid resources while the OS was
trying to open the requested connection. They would terminate on a
timeout or when the connection was finally opened (and discarded).
Waiting for the child ConnOpener job to end is a useful optimization,
but it remains a TODO. It requires complex accumulation avoidance logic.
Also fixed retrying via FwdState::fail() which could reorder addresses.
It incorrectly assumed that only the prime connections were retried.

Replaced a list-based PageStack implementation with a tree-based one.
The new code uses a deterministic binary tree. Inner nodes count the
number of available IDs in their child subtrees. Leaf nodes store IDs
using bitmasks. The root node tells the pop() method whether it is going
to find a free page. The method then adjusts counters in 1-23 nodes
(depending on the tree hight) on the path to the leaf containing a page.
The push() method adds a bit to the leaf node and adjusts the counters
of all the inner nodes (1-23) on the way up to the root one. All the
adjustments are lockless. Push may also be wait-free. No ABA problems.
An alternative fix that preserved list-based implementation was
implemented but ultimately rejected: Avoiding ABA problems required
complex code, and that complexity prevented meaningful validation using
Rust's Loom. Also, dirty performance tests of outside-of-Squid code
showed unexplained significant response time growth of the list-based
implementation when concurrency levels were being increased beyond a few
threads. While these validation and performance concerns could be red
herrings, their existence decreased our confidence in the list-based
algorithm that already had a history of fooling developers.
The tree-based PageStack implementation needs 8-16x less RAM. Roughly:
* list-based: sizeof(uint32_t) * capacity or 4*capacity
* tree-based: sizeof(uint64_t) * 2 * rcapacity/64 or rcapacity/4
where rounded capacity is somewhere between capacity and 2*capacity
The absolute RAM savings are minor for most environments, but the
footprint reduction might be enough to fit a significant part of some
hot index in a modern L1 CPU cache: (e.g., a 32GB rock cache_dir may
have 16GB/16KB = 1M slot IDs = 512KB tree size).
The tree-based structure may make future support for caches with more
than 2^25 entries easier because it does not heavily rely on combining a
cache entry ID and an ABA version/nonce in a single 64-bit atomic.
TODO: While absolute tree- and list-based operation costs are all small
(under 1 microsecond), tree-based implementation cost are higher. Since
rock code pops all disk slots at startup (a known performance bug), rock
startup costs increased significantly. For example, a 200 GB disk cache
test shows ~18 seconds startup time for the tree-based implementation
versus ~4 seconds for list-based. This will be addressed by fixing that
known performance bug. The fix will not alter the tree algorithm.
TODO: The PageStack class should be renamed. Ideally, that renaming
should coincide with refactoring the PagePool/PageStack split, which is
an old XXX also currently exposes a lot of internal PageStack code.

ENTRY_NEGCACHED entries from going to disk. The design was obscured by 8350fe9 that renamed storeCheckSwapable() to storeCheckCachable().
Commit 97754f5 violated that (obscured) design by adding a
checkCachable() call to StoreEntry::memoryCachable(), effectively
blocking ENTRY_NEGCACHED entries from the memory cache as well. That
call should have been added, but checkCachable() should not have denied
caching rights to ENTRY_NEGCACHED -- the corresponding check should have
been moved into StoreEntry::mayStartSwapOut().
By removing ENTRY_NEGCACHED from checkCachable(), we now allow
ENTRY_NEGCACHED entries into both memory and disk caches, subject to all
the other checks. We allow ENTRY_NEGCACHED to be cached on disk because
negative responses are fundamentally no different than positive ones:
HTTP allows caching of 4xx and 5xx responses expiring in the future.
Hopefully, the increased disk cache traffic will not be a problem.

ESI: convert parse exceptions into 500 status response (#411)
Produce a valid HTTP 500 status reply and continue operations when
ESI parser throws an exception. This will prevent incomplete ESI
responses reaching clients on server errors. Such responses might
have been cacheable and thus corrupted, albeit corrupted consistently
and at source by the reverse-proxy delivering them.
Supply ALE to request_header_add/reply_header_add (#564)
Supply ALE to request_header_add and reply_header_add ACLs that need it
(e.g., external, annotate_client, and annotate_transaction ACLs). Fixes
"ACL is used in context without an ALE state" errors when external ACLs
are used in the same context (other ACLs do not yet properly disclose
that they need ALE).
Also provides HTTP reply to reply_header_add ACLs.
Ban reserved annotations in "note", "adaptation_meta" directives (#561)
Squid defines a list of names used internally for exchanging name=value
pairs with various helpers. When Squid receives a name=value pair with a
reserved name, Squid stores it as if it was any other annotation; the
information can be checked with a "note" ACL and logged with %note. An
admin who configures a custom annotation with the same reserved name may
see strange/unexpected results such as seemingly corrupted access.log
record fields and mismatching ACLs.
Squid already prohibits reserved annotation names in
annotate_transaction and annotate_client ACLs. This change adds the
missing protection to the "note" and adaptation_meta directives.
Bug 4796: comm.cc !isOpen(conn->fd) assertion when rotating logs (#474)
This long-term solution overrides the short-term fix at 2cd72a2. Now,
debug.cc correctly maintains meta information associated with its file
descriptors.
IMO, the correct place for calling _db_init() is just after locking the
PID file because we want to log ASAP, but cache.log is a common resource
that requires protection. Thus, the two old _db_init() calls were both
excessive and misplaced:
* The first call happens too early, allowing another Squid instance to
pollute cache.log with messages unrelated to the cache.log-owning
instance (e.g., a "FATAL: Squid is already running" message when
attempting to start another instance).
* The second call happens too late, missing earlier debugs() that ought
to be written into cache.log (e.g., debugs() in comm_init()).
Fixing _db_init() calls led to adjustments like moving mainSetCwd() to
be called prior to the relocated _db_init(). However, these changes
should not affect chroot-sensitive code such as UseConfigRunners().
Some early debugs() messages are no longer written into cache.log:
* Exception messages like "Squid is already running" emitted by another
Squid instance. This is an improvement: Messages about other instances
do not belong to the cache.log locked by the running instance.
* Messages (mostly errors and warning) from "finalizeConfig" callers
(e.g., "WARNING: mem-cache size is too small..."). This loss is
regrettable. Long-term, these messages should be reported after
configuration is finalized (TODO). Delayed reporting will also help
when Squid starts rejecting invalid reconfigurations.
* Messages from a few early enter_suid()/leave_suid() calls, such as
"enter_suid: PID" and "leave_suid: PID". This is an improvement: These
debugging messages pollute cache.log.
* A few early SquidMain() messages emitted between parseConfigFile() and
StartUsingConfig() (e.g., "Doing post-config initialization"). This is
an improvement: These debugging messages pollute cache.log.
Also removed outdated 'TEST_ACCESS' hack for simplicity sake.
Also marked an old XXX: Chrooted SMP master process does not db_init().

Bug 5022: Reconfigure kills Coordinator in SMP+ufs configurations (#556)
In these unsupported SMP+ufs configurations, depending on the deployment
specifics, the Coordinator process could exit due to swap state file
opening errors:
kid11| FATAL: UFSSwapDir::openLog: Failed to open swap log.
This patch introduces new time units of microsecond and
nanosecond precision forming a new 'time-units-small' category.
Also found and fixed several problems, related to time parameters
parsing:
* Obscure "integer overflow" fatal messages. For example, passing
"0.0001 second" caused this message. After fixing, Squid reports
that the value "is too small to be used in this context".
* Ignoring possible zero-rounded values after parsing. For example, if
a second-precision parameter was configured with 0.1 second, it
became zero after rounding, which is unexpected. It is treated
as a fatal error now.
* Inconsistent parameter overflow type. For example, parameters
with millisecond and second precision reported that 'time_msec_t'
overflowed. Now we introduce an absolute time maximum allowed,
equal to the maximum of chrono::nanoseconds type which is about
293 years. This absolute maximum allows to keep the time parsing
code simple and at the same time should satisfy any reasonable
configuration need. Note that this solution treats existing
configurations with unreasonably huge time values > 293 years
as fatal errors, such configurations should be fixed accordingly.
* Time overflows for icap_service_failure_limit parameter were not
checked at all. This is probably a result of code duplication.
By fixing the latter problem, the former one was resolved
automatically.
* Unclear fatal message if a time parameter lacked time unit. Now
Squid reports about "missing time unit".
* Improved error reporting when an inapplicable time unit was used, for
example a 'millisecond' instead of a 'second'. For the majority of
time parameters, it reported only a common "FATAL: Bungled..."
message. For url_rewrite_timeout parameter, it reported an irrelevant
"unsupported option ..." message (since it began to treat the faulty
time unit as the next option). Now in both cases it reports about the
underlying time unit problem.
While fixing these bugs I had to refactor and improve time parsing
functions, using safer std::chrono types instead of raw integer types.

Support worker-dedicated listening queues (SO_REUSEPORT) (#369)
This performance optimization has a few cons, including security
concerns, but it improves CPU core utilization/balance in many SMP
environments and is supported by many high-performance servers. Enabled
by the new `*_port worker-queues` configuration option.
Worker-dedicated listening queues reduce client-worker affinity for
requests submitted over different TCP connections. The effect of that
reduction on Squid performance depends on the environment, but many busy
SMP proxies handling modern traffic should benefit.
TODO: Linux tests show load balancing effects of SO_REUSEPORT, but
untested FreeBSD probably needs SO_REUSEPORT_LB to get those effects.

Do not stall if xactions overwrite a recently active cache entry (#516)
After the last transaction that cached or read the reply R1 ended, its
Transients entry T1 was not freed. Subsequent requests (with different
public keys) could occupy the same shared memory and rock slots (purging
unlocked R1), preventing Squid from attaching a T1-derived StoreEntry to
the cache. Another request for R1 would receive T1 and stall because its
worker W1 kept waiting for a notification from another worker W2,
incorrectly assuming that W2 exists and is going to fetch R1 for W1.
That request was aborted after a timeout.
A Transients entry represents active transaction(s). Broadcasts stop
when there are no transactions to inform. We must remove idle (i.e.
unlocked) Transients entries to avoid feeding new transactions with
stale info. We now do that when unlocking a Transients entry and also
double check that a found unattached Transients entry has a writer.

Centralized PagePool/PageStack ID generation (#525)
Easy-to-find-in-cache.log and predictable/stable stack IDs for shared

(e.g. same-stack) operations across huge SMP logs.
Fixed prohibitively slow search for new SMP shm pages (#523)
The original Ipc::Mem::PageStack algorithm used an optimistic linear
search to locate the next free page. Measurements showed that, in
certain cases, that search could take seconds on busy caches, iterating
over millions of page index items and effectively stalling all workers
while showing 100% CPU utilization.
The new code uses a deterministic stack. It is still lock-free. The spin
loops around stack head pointer updates are expected to quit after at
most few iterations, even with a large number of workers. These loops do
not have ABA update problems. They are not spin locks.

Smarter auth_param utf8 handling, including CP1251 support (#480)
When forwarding authentication credentials to authentication helpers:
* With auth_param utf8 parameter: Squid assumed that the received

This assumption is wrong for Internet Explorer running with CP1251
regional settings. Now Squid uses HTTP Accept-Language request header
to guess the received credentials encoding (Latin-1, CP1251, or UTF-8)
and converts the first two encodings into UTF-8.
* Without auth_param utf8 parameter: No changes. Squid sends credentials
in their original encoding, only applying RFC 1738 escaping on top.
Chrome and Firefox should not be affected because they always use UTF-8
encoding when sending authentication credentials.
