MAJOR: channel: remove the BF_OUT_EMPTY flag
This flag was very problematic because it was composite in that both changes
to the pipe or to the buffer had to cause this flag to be updated, which is
not always simple (eg: there may not even be a channel attached to a buffer
at all).
There were not that many users of this flags, mostly setters. So the flag got
replaced with a macro which reports whether the channel is empty or not, by
checking both the pipe and the buffer.
One part of the change is sensible : the flag was also part of BF_MASK_STATIC,
which is used by process_session() to rescan all analysers in case the flag's
status changes. At first glance, none of the analysers seems to change its
mind base on this flag when it is subject to change, so it seems fine not to
add variation checks here. Otherwise it's possible that checking the buffer's
output size is more useful than checking the flag's replacement.

It also appears that we call chk_snd() from the recv callback and then

The real need is to have three polling levels :
- the "current" one, which is effective at any moment
- the data one, which reflects what the data layer asks for
- the sock one, which reflects what the socket layer asks for
Depending on whether a handshake is in progress or not, either one of the
last two will replace the current one, and the change will be propagated
to the lower layers.
At the moment, the shutdown status is not considered, and only handshakes
are used to decide which layer to chose. This will probably change.

MAJOR: stream_int: use a common stream_int_shut*() functions regardless of the data layer
Up to now, we had to use a shutr/shutw interface per data layer, which
basically means 3 distinct functions when we include SSL :
- generic stream_interface
- sock_raw
- sock_ssl
With this change, the code located in the stream_interface manages all the
stream_interface and buffer updates, and calls the data layer hooks when
needed.
At the moment, the socket layer hook had been implicitly considered as
being a regular socket, so the si_shut*() functions call the normal
shutdown() and EV_FD_CLR() functions on the fd if a socket layer is
defined. This may change in the future. The stream_int_shut*()
functions don't call EV_FD_CLR() so that they can later be embedded
in lower layers.
Thus, the si->data->shutr() is not called anymore and si->data->shutw()
is called to close the data layer only (eg: only for SSL).
Proceeding like this is very important because it's the only way to be
able not to rely on these functions when called from the connection
handlers, and call the data layers' instead.

MEDIUM: sock_raw: introduce a read0 callback that is different from shutr
This one is supposed to be called by the lower layer upon receiving a shutr
notification, which is different from the call performed by the upper layer.
Specifically, this function will ultimately not call EV_FD_* but will just
manipulate event flags instead. The function also does not call shutw anymore
and instead performs the necessary work.
Splitting it into si-specific part and data-specific parts will not be easy.
These primitives were initially introduced so that callers were able to
conditionally set/disable polling on a file descriptor and check in return
what the state was. It's been long since we last had an "if" on this, and
all pollers' functions were the same for cond_* and their systematic
counter parts, except that this required a check and a specific return
value that are not always necessary.
So let's simplify the FD API by removing this now unused distinction and
by making all specific functions return void.
MAJOR: connection: call data layer handshakes from the handler
Handshakes is not called anymore from the data handlers, they're only
called from the connection handler when their flag is set.
Also, this move has uncovered an issue with the stream interface notifier :
it doesn't consider the FD_WAIT_* flags possibly set by the handshake
handlers. This will result in a stuck handshake when no data is in the
output buffer. In order to cover this, for now we'll perform the EV_FD_SET
in the SSL handshake function, but this needs to be addressed separately
from the stream interface operations.
This new flag is used to indicate that the connection was already
connected. It can be used by I/O handlers to know that a connection
has just completed. It is used by stream_sock_update_conn(), allowing
the sock_opt handlers not to manipulate the SI timeout nor the
BF_WRITE_NULL flag anymore.
MEDIUM: stream_interface: centralize the SI_FL_ERR management
It's better to have only stream_sock_update_conn() handle the conversion
of the CO_FL_ERROR flag to SI_FL_ERR than having it in each and every I/O
callback.
MEDIUM: stream_interface: pass connection instead of fd in sock_ops
The sock_ops I/O callbacks made use of an FD till now. This has become
inappropriate and the struct connection is much more useful. It also
fixes the race condition introduced by previous change.
MAJOR: remove the stream interface and task management code from sock_*
The socket data layer code must only focus on moving data between a
socket and a buffer. We need a special stream interface handler to
update the stream interface and the file descriptor status.
At the moment the code works but suffers from a race condition caused
by its API : the read/write callbacks still make use of the fd instead
of using the connection. And when a double shutdown is performed, a call
to ->write() after ->read() processed an error results in dereferencing
a NULL fdtab[]->owner. This is only a temporary issue which doesn't need
to be fixed now since this will automatically go away when the functions
change to use the connection instead.
MAJOR: tcp: remove the specific I/O callbacks for TCP connection probes
Use a single tcp_connect_probe() instead of tcp_connect_write() and
tcp_connect_read(). We call this one only when no data layer function
have been processed, so this is a fallback to test for completion of
a connection attempt.
With this done, we don't have the need for any direct I/O callback
anymore.
The function still relies on ->write() to wake the stream interface up,
so it's not finished.
MEDIUM: connection: extract the send_proxy callback from proto_tcp
This handshake handler must be independant, so move it away from
proto_tcp. It has a dedicated connection flag. It is tested before
I/O handlers and automatically removes the CO_FL_WAIT_L4_CONN flag
upon success.
It also sets the BF_WRITE_NULL flag on the stream interface and
stops the SI timeout. However it does not perform the task_wakeup(),
and relies on the data handler to do so for now. The SI wakeup will
have to be moved elsewhere anyway.
MEDIUM: connection: remove the FD_POLL_* flags only once
It's inappropriate to remove FD_POLL_IN and FD_POLL_OUT in the IO callback
handlers, first because they shouldn't care about this, and second because
it will make it harder to chain multiple callers.
So let's flush these flags only once for all in the connection handler.
Right now, the HUP and ERR flags are still flushed in each IO handler to
avoid multiple calls. This will probably have to be fixed later.
MAJOR: get rid of fdtab[].state and use connection->flags instead
fdtab[].state was only used to know whether a connection was in progress
or an error was encountered. Instead we now use connection->flags to store
a flag for both. This way, connection management will be able to update the
connection status on I/O.
REORG/MEDIUM: fd: remove checks for FD_STERROR in ev_sepoll

MEDIUM: stats: add the ability to kill sessions from the admin interface
It was not possible to kill remaining sessions from the admin interface,
which is annoying especially when switching to maintenance mode. Now it's
possible.

MINOR: checks: add on-marked-up option
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]

BUG/MEDIUM: ensure that unresolved arguments are freed exactly once
When passing arguments to ACLs and samples, some types are stored as
strings then resolved later after config parsing is done. Upon exit,
the arguments need to be freed only if the string was not resolved
yet. At the moment we can encounter double free during deinit()
because some arguments (eg: userlists) are freed once as their own
type and once as a string.
The solution consists in adding an "unresolved" flag to the args to
say whether the value is still held in the <str> part or is final.
This could be debugged thanks to a useful bug report from Sander Klein.

MINOR: http: add support for "httponly" and "secure" cookie attributes
httponly This option tells haproxy to add an "HttpOnly" cookie attribute
when a cookie is inserted. This attribute is used so that a
user agent doesn't share the cookie with non-HTTP components.
Please check RFC6265 for more information on this attribute.
secure This option tells haproxy to add a "Secure" cookie attribute when
a cookie is inserted. This attribute is used so that a user agent
never emits this cookie over non-secure channels, which means
that a cookie learned with this flag will be presented only over
SSL/TLS connections. Please check RFC6265 for more information on
this attribute.

REORG/MINOR: use dedicated proxy flags for the cookie handling
Cookies were mixed with many other options while they're not used as options.
Move them to a dedicated bitmask (ck_opts). This has released 7 flags in the
proxy options and leaves some room for new proxy flags.

BUG/MINOR: fix option httplog validation with TCP frontends
Option httplog needs to be checked only once the proxy has been validated,
so that its final mode (tcp/http) can be used. Also we need to check for
httplog before checking the log format, so that we can report a warning
about this specific option and not about the format it implies.
