The tree that contains OCSP responses is never locked despite being used
at runtime for OCSP stapling as well as the CLI through "set ssl cert"
and "set ssl ocsp-response" commands.
Everything works though because the certificate_ocsp structure is
refcounted and the tree's entries are cleaned up when SSL_CTXs are
destroyed (thanks to an ex_data entry in which the certificate_ocsp
pointer is stored).
This new lock will come to use when the OCSP auto update mechanism is
fully implemented because this new feature will be based on another tree
that stores the same certificate_ocsp members and updates their contents
periodically.

BUG/MINOR: quic: do not allocate more rxbufs than necessary
When QUIC thread binding was fixed by commit f5a0c8abf ("MEDIUM: quic:
respect the threads assigned to a bind line"), one point was overlooked
regarding rxbuf allocation. Indeed, there's one rxbuf per listener and
per bound thread. Originally the loop would iterate over all threads,
but this is not needed anymore and causes lots of memory to be allocated
in scenarios where shards are used, the worst one being "shards by-thread"
which allocates N^2 buffers for N threads. This gives us 2304 buffers
(or 576 MB of RAM) for 48 threads!
Let's only allocate one buffer per bound thread on each listener to fix
this.
This should be backported to 2.7 and generally wherever the commit
above is backported. It depends on the previous commit below:

BUG/MEDIUM: quic: properly take shards into account on bind lines
Shards were completely forgotten in commit f5a0c8abf ("MEDIUM: quic:
respect the threads assigned to a bind line"). The thread mask is
taken from the bind_conf, but since shards were introduced in 2.5,
the per-listener mask is held by the receiver and can be smaller
than the bind_conf's mask.
The effect here is that the traffic is not distributed to the
appropriate thread. At first glance it's not dramatic since it remains
one of the threads eligible by the bind_conf, but it still means that
in some contexts such as "shards by-thread", some concurrency may
persist on listeners while they're expected to be alone. One identified
impact is that it requires more rxbufs than necessary, but there may
possibly be other not yet identified side effects.
This must be backported to 2.7 and everywhere the commit above is

OPTIM: pool: split the read_mostly from read_write parts in pool_head
Performance profiling on a 48-thread machine showed a lot of time spent
in pool_free(), precisely at the point where pool->limit was retrieved.
And the reason is simple. Some parts of the pool_head are heavily updated
only when facing a cache miss ("allocated", "used", "needed_avg"), while
others are always accessed (limit, flags, size). The fact that both
entries were stored into the same cache line makes it very difficult for
each thread to access these precious info even when working with its own
cache.

BUG/MEDIUM: stats: Rely on a local trash buffer to dump the stats
It is possible to block the stats applet if a line exceeds the free space in
the responsse buffer while the buffer is empty. It is only an issue in HTTP
becaues of the HTX overhead and, AFAIK, only with json output.
In this case, the applet is unable to write anything in the response buffer
and waits for some free space to proceed further. On the other hand, because
the response channel is empty, nothing is sent and thus no space can be
freed. At this stage, the stream and the applet are blocked waiting for the
other side.
To avoid this situation, we must take care to not dump a line exceeding the
free space in the HTX message. It means we cannot rely anymore on the global
trash buffer. At least, not directly. The trick is to use a local trash
buffer, mapped on the global one but with a different size. We use b_make()
to do so. The local trash buffer is thread local to avoid any concurrency
issue.
It is a valid fix. However it could be good to review the internal API of
the stats applet to not rely on a global variable.

It should never happen. But there is an edge case that was not properly
handled. If all data are received on the first packet with the read0 and the
request is truncated on the payload, in this case the stream-connector is

However this time this is purely preemptive as we did not reach the buffer
limitation yet. But now is the proper time so that this won't be an issue
in the upcoming versions.
BUG/MINOR: stats: fix show stat json buffer limitation
json output type is a lot more verbose than other output types.
Because of this and the increasing number of metrics implemented within
haproxy, we are starting to reach max bufsize limit (defaults to 16k)
when dumping stats to json since 2.6-dev1.
This results in stats output being truncated with
"[{"errorStr":"output buffer too short"}]"
This was reported by Gabriel in #1964.
Thanks to "MINOR: stats: introduce stats field ctx", we can now make
multipart (using multiple buffers) dumping, in case a single buffer is not big
enough to hold the complete stat line.
For now, only stats_dump_fields_json() makes use of it as it is by
far the most verbose stats output type.
(csv, typed and html outputs should be good for a while and may use this
capability if the need arises in some distant future)

when needed. ie: when dumping buffer is exhausted: do a partial send and
wait for a new buffer to finish the dump. Thanks to field ctx, the function
can start dumping where it left off on previous (unterminated) invokation.
This is a minor refactor to allow stats_dump_info_* and stats_dump_fields_*

passing stat ctx struct members to them.

BUG/MEDIUM: h3: fix cookie header parsing
Cookie header are treated specifically to merge multiple occurences in a
single HTX header. This is treated in a if-block condition inside the
'while (1)' loop for headers parsing. The length value of ist
representing cookie header is set to -1 by http_cookie_register(). The
problem is that then a continue statement is used but without
incrementing 'hdr_idx' to pass on the next header.
Before the aformentionned patch, the bug was hidden : on the next while
iteration, all isteq() invocations won't match with cookie header length
now set to -1. htx_add_header() fails silently because length is
invalid. hdr_idx is finally incremented which allows parsing to proceed
normally with the next header.
Now, a cookie header with length -1 do not pass the test on header name
conformance introduced by the above patch. Thus, a spurrious
RESET_STREAM is emitted. This behavior has been reported on the mailing
list by Shawn Heisey who found out that browsers disabled H3 usage due
to the RESET_STREAM received. Big thanks to him for his testing on the

connection. In this case, a stream-connector is attached. The H1 stream is
not orphan. Thus it must not be released at this stage. It must be detached

to re-enable caching by specifying the cache after, like -dMuaf,cache.
A few tests with this mode show that it can be an interesting combination
which catches significantly less UAF but will do so with much less
overhead, so it might be compatible with some high-traffic deployments.
The change is very small and isolated. It could be helpful to backport
this at least to 2.7 once confirmed not to cause build issues on exotic

BUG/MINOR: init/threads: continue to limit default thread count to max per group
Jakub Vojacek reported in issue #1955 that haproxy 2.7.0 doesn't start
anymore on a 128-CPU machine with a default config. The reason is the
raise of the default MAX_THREADS value that came with thread groups.
Previously, the maximum number of threads was simply limited to this
value, and all of them fit into one group. Now the limit being higher,
all threads cannot fit by default into a single group, and haproxy fails
to start.
The solution adopted here is to continue to limit the number of threads
to the max supported per group, but to multiply it by the number of groups
(usually 1 by default). In addition, a diag warning is now emitted when
this happens, reminding the user to set nbthread or adjust thread-groups.
We can hardly do more than a diag warning if we don't want to make the
upgrade painful for users.
Thanks to Jakub for reporting this early. This must be backported to 2.7.
MINOR: peers: unused code path in process_peer_sync
In process_peer_sync: a check was performed to know whether the peers section
handler should kill itself if the corresponding proxy was not started on the
current process.
This logic was initially implemented in early 1.6 development to prevent
some issues when peers where used in conjunction with nbproc > 1: f83d3fe00a MEDIUM: init: stop any peers section not bound to the correct process 46dc1ca MEDIUM: peers: unregister peers that were never started
But later in 1.6 dev, a new commit has been introduced: 47c8c029db MEDIUM: init: completely deallocate unused peers
With the latter, the check implemented in 46dc1ca ("MEDIUM: peers: unregister
peers that were never started") will never succeed: it is dead code.
Since nbproc support has been dropped in 2.5, things have changed a bit:
f83d3fe00a logic was moved in mworker_cleanlisteners, but as in 46dc1ca :
peers task is safely destroyed before peers_fe is set to NULL.
Conversely, peers_fe is first set by init_peers_frontend() before peers task
is scheduled by peers_init_sync() in check_config_validity().
Again, it is safe to say that we will never reach !peers->peers_fe
in process_peer_sync(): this self-killing mechanism is not relevant anymore.
--
To cut a long story short: I stumbled on this while tracking down
current signal api usage.
This led me to a signal_unregister_handler() call performed in the
aforementionned dead code. To me this code was potentially unsafe because
signal_unregister_handler() is not thread safe and here it was used within a
task initialized via task_new_anywhere(). So I decided to check how bad this
could be (ie: conditions to be met for this code to run).. and here we are.
MINOR: mworker: remove unused legacy code in mworker_cleanlisteners
This cleanup is a follow up of "CLEANUP: peers: unused code path in
process_peer_sync"
There are some remnants of 1.6 peers specific code in mworker_cleanlisteners()
that was introduced with this patch serie: f83d3fe00a MEDIUM: init: stop any peers section not bound to the correct process 47c8c029db MEDIUM: init: completely deallocate unused peers
Back then, nbthread did not exist, nbproc was used instead.
Updating some comments to make them more relevant to current haproxy design.
(multithreaded single process)
Moreover, in 47c8c029db, task_free() was performed on peers_fe->task.
But by looking at the code, from 1.6 til now, peers_fe->task
is never used for peers proxies, it is only used for main proxies (referenced
in proxies_list).
Removing this extra task cleanup because it is misleading.
ST_F_CHECK_DURATION metric is typed as unsigned int variable, and it is
derived from check->duration that is signed.
While most of the time check->duration > 0, it is not always true:
with HCHK_STATUS_HANA checks, check->duration is set to -1 to prevent server
logs from including irrelevant duration info (HCHK_STATUS_HANA checks are not
time related).
Because of this, stats could report UINT64_MAX value for ST_F_CHECK_DURATION
metric. This was quite confusing. To prevent this, we make sure not to assign
negative value to ST_F_CHECK_DURATION.
This is only a minor printing issue, not backport needed.
With previous commit, 9e080bf ("BUG/MINOR: checks: make sure fastinter is used
even on forced transitions"), on-error mark-down|sudden-death|fail-check are
now working as expected.
However, on-error fastinter remains broken because srv_getinter(), used in
the above commit to check the expiration date, won't return fastinter interval
if server health is maxed out (which is the case with on-error fastinter mode).
To fix this, we introduce a check flag named CHK_ST_FASTINTER.
This flag is set when on-error is triggered. This way we can force
srv_getinter() to return fastinter interval whenever the flag is set.
The flag is automatically cleared as soon as the new check task expiry is
recalculated in process_chk_conn().
This restores original behavior prior to d114f4a ("MEDIUM: checks: spread the
checks load over random threads").
It must be backported to 2.7 along with the aforementioned commits.
BUG/MEDIUM: mworker: create the mcli_reload socketpairs in case of upgrade
In ticket #1956, it was reported that an upgrade from 2.6 to 2.7 via a
reload would stop the master process.
When upgrading the binary, the new process is considered reexec and does
not try to creates the socketpair for the mcli_reload listener, then
tries to bind on -1 since the socket doesn't exit. The failure provokes
an exit() of the master.
This patch fixes the issue by trying to create the mcli_reload sockets
only when they don't exist, instead of creating them at first start.
This way we also avoid possible fd leak since we always try to use the
existing FDs first.
BUG/MEDIUM: mworker: fix segv in early failure of mworker mode with peers
During an early failure of the mworker mode, the
mworker_cleanlisteners() function is called and tries to cleanup the
peers, however the peers are in a semi-initialized state and will use
NULL pointers.
The fix check the variable before trying to use them.
Let's make sure we do consider this specific case to update the timer
based on the new state if the new value is shorter. This particularly
means that even if the timer is not expired yet during a wakeup when
nothing is in progress, we need to check if applying the currently
effective interval right now to the current date would expire earlier
than what is programmed, then the timer needs to be updated. I.e.
make sure we never miss fastinter during a state transition before
the end of the current period.
The approach is not pretty, but it forces to repass via the existing
block dedicated to updating the timer if the current one is expired
and the updated one would appear earlier.
This must be backported to 2.7 along with the commit above.
When a server's state is changed via __health_adjust(), if a fastinter
setting is set, the task gets rescheduled to run at the new date. The
way it's done is not thread safe, as nothing prevents another thread
where the task is already running from also updating the expire field
in parallel. But since such events are quite rare, this statistically
never happens. However, with the commit above, the tasks are no longer
required to go to the shared wait queue and are no longer marked as
shared between multiple threads. It's just that *any* thread may run
them at a time without implying that all of them are allowed to modify
them. And this change is sufficient to trigger the BUG_ON() condition
in the scheduler that detects the inconsistency between a task queued
in one thread and being manipulated in parallel by another one:
At first glance it looked like it could be addressed in the scheduler
only, but in fact the problem clearly is at the application level, since
some shared fields are manipulated without protection. At minima, the
task's expiry ought to be touched only under the server's lock. While
it's arguable that the scheduler could make such updates easier, changing
it alone will not be sufficient here.
Looking at the sequencing closer, it becomes obvious that we do not need
this task_schedule() at all: a simple task_wakeup() is sufficient for the
callee to update its timers. Indeed, the process_chk_con() function already
deals with spurious wakeups, and already uses srv_getinter() to calculate
the next wakeup date based on the current state. So here, instead of
having to queue the task from __health_adjust() to anticipate a new check,
we can simply wake the task up and let it decide when it needs to run
next. This is much cleaner as the expiry calculation remains performed at
a single place, from the task itself, as it should be, and it fixes the
problem above.
This should be backported to 2.7, but not to older versions where the
risks of breakage are higher than the chance to fix something that
ever happened.
MINOR: server/event_hdl: add support for SERVER_UP and SERVER_DOWN events
We're using srv_update_status() as the only event source or UP/DOWN server
events in an attempt to simplify the support for these 2 events.
It seems srv_update_status() is the common path for server state changes anyway
Tested with server state updated from various sources:
- the cli
- server-state file (maybe we could disable this or at least don't publish
in global event queue in the future if it ends in slower startup for setups
relying on huge server state files)
- dns records (ie: srv template)
(again, could be fined tuned to only publish in server specific subscriber
list and no longer in global subscription list if mass dns update tend to
slow down srv_update_status())
- normal checks and observe checks (HCHK_STATUS_HANA)
(same as above, if checks related state update storms are expected)
- lua scripts
- html stats page (admin mode)
MINOR: server/event_hdl: add support for SERVER_ADD and SERVER_DEL events
Basic support for ADD and DEL server events are added through this commit:
SERVER_ADD is published on dynamic server addition through cli.
SERVER_DEL is published on dynamic server deletion through cli.
This work depends on:
"MINOR: event_hdl: add event handler base api"
"MINOR: server: add srv->rid (revision id) value"
Stat is referred as ST_F_SRID, it is now used in stats_fill_sv_stats
function in order to be included in csv and json stats dumps.
Moreover, "rid: $value" will be displayed next to server puid
in html stats page if "stats show-legend" is specified in the stats frontend.
(mouse hovering tooltip)
Depends on the following commit:
"MINOR: server: add srv->rid (revision id) value"
With current design, we could not distinguish between
previously existing deleted server and a new server reusing
the deleted server name/id.
This can cause some confusion when auditing stats/events/logs,
because the new server will look similar to the old
one.
To address this, we're adding a new value in server structure: rid
rid (revision id) value is an unsigned 32bits value that is set upon
server creation. Value is derived from a global counter that starts
at 0 and is incremented each time one or multiple server deletions are
followed by a server addition (meaning that old name/id reuse could occur).
Thanks to this revision id, it is now easy to tell whether the server
we're looking at is the same as before or if it has been deleted and
re-added in the meantime.
(combining server name/id + server revision id yields a process-wide unique
identifier)
BUG/MEDIIM: stconn: Flush output data before forwarding close to write side
In process_stream(), we wait to have an empty output channel to forward a
close to the write side (a shutw). However, at the stream-connector level,
when a close is detected on one side and we don't want to keep half-close
connections, the shutw is unconditionally forwarded to the write side. This
typically happens on server side.
At first glance, this bug may truncate messages. But depending on the muxes
and the stream states, the bug may be more visible. On recent versions
(2.8-dev and 2.7) and on 2.2 and 2.0, the stream may be freezed, waiting for
the client timeout, if the client mux is unable to forward data because the
client is too slow _AND_ the response channel is not empty _AND_ the server
closes its connection _AND_ the server mux has forwarded all data to the
upper layer _AND_ the client decides to send some data and to close its
connection. On 2.6 and 2.4, it is worst. Instead of a freeze, the client mux
is woken up in loop.
Of course, conditions are pretty hard to meet. Especially because it is highly
time dependent. For what it's worth, I reproduce it with tcploop on client and
server sides and a basic HTTP configuration for HAProxy:
* client: tcploop -v 8889 C S:"GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nConnection: upgrade\r\n\r\n" P5000 S:"1234567890" K
* server: tcploop -v 8000 L A R S:"HTTP/1.1 101 ok\r\nConnection: upgrade\r\n\r\n" P2000 S2660000 F R
On 2.8-dev, without this patch, the stream is freezed and when the client
connection timed out, client data are truncated and '--cL' is reported in
logs. With the patch, the client data are forwarded to the server and the
connection is closed. A '--CD' is reported in logs.
It is an old bug. It was probably introduced with the multiplexers. To fix
it, in stconn (Formerly the stream-interface), we must wait all output data
be flushed before forwarding close to write side.
This patch must be backported as far as 2.2 and must be evaluated for 2.0.
A startup check is done for first QUIC listener to detect if quic-conn
owned socket is supported by the system. This is done by creating a
dummy socket reusing the listener address. This socket must be closed as
soon as the check is done.
The socket condition is invalid as it excludes zero which is a valid
file-descriptor value. Fix this bug by adjusting this condition.
In theory, this bug could prevent the usage of quic-conn owned socket as
startup check would report a false error. Also, the file-descriptor
would leak as it is not closed. In practice, this cannot happen when
startup check is done after a 'quic4/quic6' listener is instantiated as
file-descriptor are allocated in ascending order by the system.
