It is possible to override the default QUIC congestion algorithm on a
bind line. With the same setting, it is also possible to specify the
maximum congestion window size.
The parser rejects values outside of the range between 10k and 4g. This
is in contradiction with the documentation which specify 1k as the lower
value. Correct this value in the documentation.
This should be backported up to 2.9.
Some systems require log formats in the CLF format and that meant that I
could not send my logs for proxies in mode tcp to those servers. This
implements a format that uses log variables that are compatble with TCP
mode frontends and replaces traditional HTTP values in the CLF format
to make them stand out. Instead of logging method and URI like this
"GET /example HTTP/1.1" it will log "TCP " and for a response code I
used "000" so it would be easy to separate from legitimate HTTP
traffic. Now your log servers that require a CLF format can see the
timings for TCP traffic as well as HTTP.
It is now possible to use "drop" keyword for "on" lines under a
log-profile section to specify that no log at all should be emitted for
the specified step (setting an empty format was not sufficient to do so
because only the log payload would be empty, not the log header, thus the
log would still be emitted).
It may be useful to selectively disable logging at specific steps for a
given log target (since the log profile may be set on log directives):
log-profile myprof
on request format "blabla" sd "custom sd"
on response drop

With "follow" from one source to another, it becomes possible for a
source to automatically follow another source's tracked pointer. The
best example is the session:
- the "session" source is enabled and has a "lockon session"
-> its lockon_ptr is equal to the session when valid
- other sources (h1,h2,h3 etc) are configured for "follow session"
and will then automatically check if session's lockon_ptr matches
its own session, in which case tracing will be enabled for that
trace (no state change).
It's not necessary to start/pause/stop traces when using this, only
"follow" followed by a source with lockon enabled is needed. Some
combinations might work better than others. At the moment the session
is almost never known from the backend, but this may improve.
The meta-source "all" is supported for the follower so that all sources
will follow the tracked one.
It's extremely painful to have to set "trace <src> sink buf1" for all
sources, then to do the same for "level developer" (for example). Let's
have a possibility via a meta-source "all" to apply the change to all
sources at once. This currently supports level and sink, which are not
dependent on the source, this is a good start.
These are passed to the underlying mux to retrieve debug information
at the mux level (stream/connection) as a string that's meant to be
added to logs.
The API is quite complex just because we can't pass any info to the
bottom function. So we construct a union and pass the argument as an
int, and expect the callee to fill that with its buffer in return.
Most likely the mux->ctl and ->sctl API should be reworked before
the release to simplify this.
The functions take an optional argument that is a bit mask of the
layers to dump:
muxs=1
muxc=2
xprt=4
conn=8
sock=16
The default (0) logs everything available.
These must be before {bs,fs}.id, not after. Should be backported wherever
068ce2d5d2 ("MINOR: stconn: Add samples to retrieve about stream aborts")
is (normally 3.0).
This low level callback may be called by several sample fetches for
frontend connections like "fc_rtt", "fc_rttvar" etc.
Define this callback for QUIC protocol as pointer to quic_get_info().
This latter supports these sample fetches:
"fc_lost", "fc_reordering", "fc_rtt" and "fc_rttvar".
Update the documentation consequently.
The SPOE was refactored. Now backends referenced by a SPOE filter must use
the spop mode to be able to use the spop multiplexer for server connections.
The "spop" mode was added in the list of supported mode for backends.
In 2.5-dev9, commit 631c7e866 ("MEDIUM: h1: Force close mode for invalid
uses of T-E header") enforced a recently arrived new security rule in the
HTTP specification aiming at preventing a class of content-smuggling
attacks involving HTTP/1.0 agents. It consists in handling the very rare
T-E + C-L requests or responses in close mode.
It happens it does have an impact of a rare few and very old clients
(probably running insecure TLS stacks by the way) that continue to send
both with their POST requests. The impact is that for each and every
request they'll have to reconnect, possibly negotiating a full TLS
handshake that becomes harmful to the machine in terms of CPU computation.
This commit adds a new option "h1-do-not-close-on-insecure-transfer-encoding"
that does exactly what it says, it just asks not to close on such messages,
even though the message continues to be sanitized and C-L dropped. It means
that the risk is only between the sender and haproxy, which is limited, and
might be the only acceptable solution for such environments having to deal
with broken implementations.
The cases are so rare that it should not need to be backported, or in the
worst case, to the latest LTS if there is any demand.
Define a new quic-initial "send-retry" rule. This allows to force the
emission of a Retry packet on an initial without token instead of
instantiating a new QUIC connection.
Define a new quic-initial action named "reject". Contrary to dgram-drop,
the client is notified of the rejection by a CONNECTION_CLOSE with
CONNECTION_REFUSED error code.
To be able to emit the necessary CONNECTION_CLOSE frame, quic_conn is
instantiated, contrary to dgram-drop action. quic_set_connection_close()
is called immediatly after qc_new_conn() which prevents the handshake
startup.
Add ACL condition support for quic-initial rules. This requires the
extension of quic_parse_quic_initial() to parse an extra if/unless
block.
Only layer4 client samples are allowed to be used with quic-initial
rules. However, due to the early execution of quic-initial rules prior
to any connection instantiation, some samples are non supported.
To be able to use the 4 described samples, a dummy session is
instantiated before quic-initial rules execution. Its src and dst fields
are set from the received datagram values.
Implement a new set of rules labelled as quic-initial.
These rules as specific to QUIC. They are scheduled to be executed early
on Initial packet parsing, prior a new QUIC connection instantiation.
Contrary to tcp-request connection, this allows to reject traffic
earlier, most notably by avoiding unnecessary QUIC SSL handshake
processing.
A new module quic_rules is created. Its main function
quic_init_exec_rules() is called on Initial packet parsing in function
quic_rx_pkt_retrieve_conn().
For the moment, only "accept" and "dgram-drop" are valid actions. Both
are final. The latter drops silently the Initial packet instead of
allocating a new QUIC connection.

- MEDIUM: sink: "max-reuse" support for sink servers
- OPTIM: sink: consider threads' current load when rebalancing applets
Thanks to the previous commit, it is now possible to know how many events
were processed for a given sft/server sink pair. As mentioned in commit
c454296 ("OPTIM: sink: balance applets accross threads"), let's provide
the ability to restart a server connection when a certain amount of events
were processed to help better balance the load over multiple threads.
For this, we make use the of "max-reuse" server keyword which was only
relevant under "http" context so far. Under sink context, "max-reuse"
corresponds to the number of times the tcp connection can be reused
for sending messages, which in fact means that "max-reuse + 1" is the
number of events (ie: messages) that are allowed to be sent using the
same tcp server connection: when this threshold is met, the connection
will be destroyed and a new one will be created on a random thread.
The value is not strict: it is the minimum value above which the
connection may be destroyed since the value is checked after
ring_dispatch_messages() which may process multiple messages at once.
By default, no limit is enforced (the connection will be reused for as
long as it is available).
The documentation was updated accordingly.
It is explicitly mentionned in the configuration manual that the parent of a
SPOE stream is the filtered stream. It means variables of the filtered
stream are usable from the SPOE stream.
It is now possible for a stream to have a parent and it is also possible to
retrieve variables defined in the parent stream context. To do so, some
extra scopes were introduced. The section 2.8. was updated accordingly.
The variables in the HAProxy configuration are now described in a dedicated
section. Instead of repeating the same description everywhere a variable
name can be used, the section 2.8. is now referenced.
Nathan Wehrman suggested this add-on to try to better explain the
interactions between http-keep-alive and other timeouts, and the
impacts on protocols (HTTP/1, HTTP/2 etc).
Let's check the second time a global counter of "ha_warning" messages, if
zero-warning is set. And let's do this just before forking. At this moment we
are sure, that we've already done all init operations, where we could emit
"ha_warning", and we still have stderr fd opened.
Even with the second check, we could lost some late and rare warnings
about failing to drop supplementary groups and about re-enabling core dumps.
Notes about this are added into 'zero-warning' keyword description.
Since patch f3dfd95a ("MEDIUM: ocsp: fix ocsp when the chain is loaded
from 'issuers-chain-path'") the OCSP features are compatible with
'issuers-chain-path'.
The SPOE was refactored. Several parameters were deprecated. Fragmentation
and async capabilities support were removed. The default log-format was
updated too.
So, the SPOE documentation was updated accordingly.
The related issue is #2502.
Add a startup test for GSO support in quic_test_socketopts() and
automatically activate it in qc_prep_pkts() when building datagrams as
big as MTU.
Also define a new config option tune.quic.disable-udp-gso. This is
useful to prevent warning on older platform or to debug an issue which
may be related to GSO.

We've discussed about removing it many times and I thought it had been
removed long ago, but apparently not as William proved me. Let's get
rid of it now. It's totally outdated (last updated 18 years ago, when
laptop processors were still 32 bits), mentions keywords and external
products that don't exist anymore. It's not even on docs.haproxy.org.
At some point, old stuff must really die.
This is the second attempt at importing the updated mt_list code (commit
59459ea3). The previous one was attempted with commit c618ed5ff4 ("MAJOR:
import: update mt_list to support exponential back-off") but revealed
problems with QUIC connections and was reverted.
The problem that was faced was that elements deleted inside an iterator
were no longer reset, and that if they were to be recycled in this form,
they could appear as busy to the next user. This was trivially reproduced
with this:
$ cat quic-repro.cfg
global
stats socket /tmp/sock1 level admin
stats timeout 1h
limited-quic
frontend stats
mode http
bind quic4@:8443 ssl crt rsa+dh2048.pem alpn h3
timeout client 5s
stats uri /
$ ./haproxy -db -f quic-repro.cfg &
$ h2load -c 10 -n 100000 --npn h3 https://127.0.0.1:8443/
=> hang
This was purely an API issue caused by the simplified usage of the macros
for the iterator. The original version had two backups (one full element
and one pointer) that the user had to take care of, while the new one only
uses one that is transparent for the user. But during removal, the element
still has to be unlocked if it's going to be reused.
All of this sparked discussions with Fred and Aurlien regarding the still
unclear state of locking. It was found that the lock API does too much at
once and is lacking granularity. The new version offers a much more fine-
grained control allowing to selectively lock/unlock an element, a link,
the rest of the list etc.
It was also found that plenty of places just want to free the current
element, or delete it to do anything with it, hence don't need to reset
its pointers (e.g. event_hdl). Finally it appeared obvious that the
root cause of the problem was the unclear usage of the list iterators
themselves because one does not necessarily expect the element to be
presented locked when not needed, which makes the unlock easy to overlook
during reviews.
The updated version of the list presents explicit lock status in the
macro name (_LOCKED or _UNLOCKED suffixes). When using the _LOCKED
suffix, the caller is expected to unlock the element if it intends to
reuse it. At least the status is advertised. The _UNLOCKED variant,
instead, always unlocks it before starting the loop block. This means
it's not necessary to think about unlocking it, though it's obviously
not usable with everything. A few _UNLOCKED were used at obvious places
(i.e. where the element is deleted and freed without any prior check).
Interestingly, the tests performed last year on QUIC forwarding, that
resulted in limited traffic for the original version and higher bit
rate for the new one couldn't be reproduced because since then the QUIC
stack has gaind in efficiency, and the 100 Gbps barrier is now reached
with or without the mt_list update. However the unit tests definitely
show a huge difference, particularly on EPYC platforms where the EBO
provides tremendous CPU savings.
Overall, the following changes are visible from the application code:
- mt_list_for_each_entry_safe() + 1 back elem + 1 back ptr
=> MT_LIST_FOR_EACH_ENTRY_LOCKED() or MT_LIST_FOR_EACH_ENTRY_UNLOCKED()
+ 1 back elem
- MT_LIST_DELETE_SAFE() no longer needed in MT_LIST_FOR_EACH_ENTRY_UNLOCKED()
=> just manually set iterator to NULL however.
For MT_LIST_FOR_EACH_ENTRY_LOCKED()
=> mt_list_unlock_self() (if element going to be reused) + NULL
- MT_LIST_LOCK_ELT => mt_list_lock_full()

The ssl_c_san sample fetch returns a list of Subject Alt Name which was
presented by the client certificate.
The format is the same as the "openssl x509 -text" command, it's a
Description: Value list separated by commas.
The format is directly generated by the GENERAL_NAME_print() openssl
function.

Example:
IP Address:127.0.0.1, IP Address:127.0.0.2, IP Address:127.0.0.3, URI:http://docs.haproxy.org/2.7/, DNS:ca.tests.haproxy.com
Let's update maxconn keyword description, in order to make it clear, which
setting has the precedence over the global.maxconn and the SYSTEM_MAXCONN if
set.
Let's provide a default value for fd_hard_limit, if it's not set in the
configuration. With this patch we could set some specific default via
compile-time variable DEFAULT_MAXFD as well. Hope, this will be helpfull for
haproxy package maintainers.
make -j 8 TARGET=linux-glibc DEBUG=-DDEFAULT_MAXFD=50000
If haproxy is comipled without DEFAULT_MAXFD defined, the default will be set
to 1048576.
This is done to avoid killing the process by its watchdog, while it started
without any limitations in its configuration or in the command line and the
hard RLIMIT_NOFILE is extremely huge (~1000000000). We use in this case
compute_ideal_maxconn() to calculate maxconn and maxsock, maxsock defines the
size of internal fdtab, which becames very-very large as well. When
the process starts to simply loop over this fdtab (0(n)), this takes a lot of
time, so watchdog does it job.
To avoid this, maxconn now is always reduced to some reasonable value either
by explicit global.fd-hard-limit from configuration, or by its default. The
default may be changed at build-time and overwritten then by
global.fd-hard-limit at runtime. Explicit global.fd-hard-limit from the
configuration has always precedence over DEFAULT_MAXFD, if set.

Now that log-profile parsing logic has been implemented in "MINOR: log:
add log-profile parsing logic" and is actually effective since "MEDIUM:
log: handle log-profile in process_send_log()", let's document the feature
and add some examples.
Log-profile section is declared like this:
log-profile myprof
log-tag "custom-tag"
on error format "%ci: error"
on any format "(custom httplog) ${HAPROXY_HTTP_LOG_FMT}" sd "[exampleSDID@1234 step=\"accept\" id=\"%ID\"]"
(check out the documentation for the full list of options, some options
are only relevant under specific contexts)
And used this way (from usual "log" directive lines):
global
log stdout format rfc5424 profile myprof local0
--------------
For now, the use of log-profiles is somewhat limited because we lack
the ability to explicitly trigger the log building process at specific
steps during the stream handling, but it should gain more traction over
the time as the feature evolves and new mechanisms allowing the emission
of logs at expected processing steps will be added.
It should partially fix GH #401
'%OG' logformat alias may be used to report the log origin (when/where)
that triggered log generation using sess_build_logline().
Possible values are:
- "sess_error": log was generated during session error handling
- "sess_killed": log was generated during session abortion (killed
embryonic session)
- "txn_accept": log was generated right after frontend conn was accepted
- "txn_request": log was generated after client request was received
- "txn_connect": log was generated after backend connection establishment
- "txn_response": log was generated during server response handling
- "txn_close": log was generated at the final txn step, before closing
- "unspec": unknown or not specified
Documentation was updated.
In commit f8642ee82 ("MEDIUM: resolvers: rename dns extra counters to
resolvers extra counters"), we renamed "dns" counters to "resolvers", but
we forgot to update the documentation accordingly.
This may be backported to all stable versions.
Add a documentation about the history of the master-worker and how it
was implemented in its first version and how it is currently working.
This is a global view of the architecture, and not an exhaustive
explanation of all mechanisms.
To stay consistent with the work started in 54627f991 ("DOC: config: add
context hint for proxy keywords") and 3d4e1e682 ("DOC: config: add context
hint for server keywords"), we add missing context hint for "guid" (both
proxy and server) keyword and "hash-key" server keyword that were added
during 3.0 development.
This may be backported in 3.0.
"guid" proxy keyword added in da754b45 ("MINOR: proxy: implement GUID
support") was lacking the section hint in the keyword description, let's
fix that.
It could be backported in 3.0 with da754b45.
As reported by Ashley Morris, "hash-key" keyword which was introduced in
commit faa8c3e0 ("MEDIUM: lb-chash: Deterministic node hashes based on
server address") doesn't belong to proxy keywords and should be found in
5.2 "Server and default-server options" instead.
It should be backported in 3.0 with faa8c3e0
Using CertCache.set() from init context wasn't explicitly supported and
caused the process to crash:
crash.lua:
core.register_init(function()
CertCache.set{filename="reg-tests/ssl/set_cafile_client.pem", ocsp=""}
end)
crash.conf:
global
lua-load crash.lua
listen front
bind localhost:9090 ssl crt reg-tests/ssl/set_cafile_client.pem ca-file reg-tests/ssl/set_cafile_interCA1.crt verify none

This is because in hlua_ckch_set/hlua_ckch_commit_yield, we always
consider that we're being called from a yield-capable runtime context.
As such, hlua_gethlua() is never checked for NULL and we systematically
try to wake hlua->task and yield every 10 instances.
In fact, if we're called from the body or init context (that is, during
haproxy startup), hlua_gethlua() will return NULL, and in this case we
shouldn't care about yielding because it is ok to commit all instances
at once since haproxy is still starting up.
Also, when calling CertCache.set() from a non-yield capable runtime
context (such as hlua fetch context), we kept doing as if the yield
succeeded, resulting in unexpected function termination (operation
would be aborted and the CertCache lock wouldn't be released). Instead,
now we explicitly state in the doc that CertCache.set() cannot be used
from a non-yield capable runtime context, and we raise a runtime error
if it is used that way.
These bugs were discovered by reading the code when trying to address
Svace report documented by @Bbulatov GH #2586.
It should be backported up to 2.6 with 30fcca18 ("MINOR: ssl/lua:
CertCache.set() allows to update an SSL certificate file")
In ticket #785, people are still confused about how to use the crt-store
load parameters in a crt-list.
This patch adds an example.
This must be backported in 3.0
This patch removes the old README file and replaces it with a more
modern markdown version which allows clickable links on the github page.
It also adds some of the Github Actions worfklow Status.
This patch includes the HAProxy png in the doc directory.

With the introduction of "pool-conn-name", documentation related to
http-reuse was rendered more complex than already, notably with multiple
cross-references between "pool-conn-name" and "sni" server keywords.
Took the opportunity to improve all http-reuse related documentation.
First, "http-reuse" keyword general purpose has been greatly expanded
and reordered.
Then, "pool-conn-name" and "sni" have been clarified, in particular the
relation between them, with the foremost being an advanced usage to the
default SSL SNI case in the context of http-reuse. Also update
attach-srv rule documentation as its name parameter is directly linked
to both "pool-conn-name" and "sni".
The ability to give a name to a logformat_node (known as logformat item in
the documentation) implemented in 2ed6068f2a ("MINOR: log: custom name for
logformat node") wasn't documented.
The same goes for the ability to force the logformat_node's output type to
a specific type implemented in 1448478d62 ("MINOR: log: explicit
typecasting for logformat nodes")
Let's quickly describe such new usages at the start of the custom log
format section.
In 2.9 we started to introduce an ambiguity in the documentation by
referring to historical log-format variables ('%var') as log-format
tags in 739c4e5b1e ("MINOR: sample: accept_date / request_date return
%Ts / %tr timestamp values") and 454c372b60 ("DOC: configuration: add
sample fetches for timing events").
In fact, we've had this confusion between log-format tag and log-format
var for more than 10 years now, but in 2.9 it was the first time the
confusion was exposed in the documentation.
Indeed, both 'log-format variable' and 'log-format tag' actually refer
to the same feature (that is: '%B' and friends that can be used for
direct access to some log-oriented predefined fetches instead of using
%[expr] with generic sample expressions).
This feature was first implemented in 723b73ad75 ("MINOR: config: Parse
the string of the log-format config keyword") and later documented in
4894040fa ("DOC: log-format documentation"). At that time, it was clear
that we used to name it 'log-format variable'.
But later the same year, 'log-format tag' naming started to appear in
some commit messages (while still referring to the same feature), for
instance with ffc3fcd6d ("MEDIUM: log: report SSL ciphers and version
in logs using logformat %sslc/%sslv").
Unfortunately in 2.9 when we added (and documented) new log-format
variables we officially started drifting to the misleading 'log-format
tag' naming (perhaps because it was the most recent naming found for
this feature in git log history, or because the confusion has always
been there)
Even worse, in 3.0 this confusion led us to rename all 'var' occurrences
to 'tag' in log-format related code to unify the code with the doc.
Hopefully William quickly noticed that we made a mistake there, but
instead of reverting to historical naming (log-format variable), it was
decided that we must use a different name that is less confusing than
'tags' or 'variables' (tags and variables are keywords that are already
used to designate other features in the code and that are not very
explicit under log-format context today).
Now we refer to '%B' and friends as a logformat alias, which is
essentially a handy way to print some log oriented information in the
log string instead of leveraging '%[expr]' with generic sample expressions
made of fetches and converters. Of course, there are some subtelties, such
as a few log-format aliases that still don't have sample fetch equivalent
for historical reasons, and some aliases that may be a little faster than
their generic sample expression equivalents because most aliases are
pretty much hardcoded in the log building function. But in general
logformat aliases should be simply considered as an alternative to using
expressions (with '%[expr']')
Also, under log-format context, when we want to refer to either an alias
('%alias') or an expression ('%[expr]'), we should use the generic term
'logformat item', which in fact designates a single item within the
logformat string provided by the user. Indeed, a logformat item (whether
is is an alias or an expression) always starts with '%' and may accept
optional flags / arguments
Both the code and the documentation were updated in that sense, hopefully
this will clarify things and prevent future confusions.

The wording in the Custom log format section was still extremely centered
on logging, but it's about time to mention that these are usable for other
actions as well, otherwise it's very confusing for newcomers who try to
define a variable or header. The updated text also reminds about the risks
of safe encodings that may (rarely) mangle an output string, and encourages
to migrate away from the unquoted definition which is full of backslashes.
It would definitely deserve further improvements and refinements.
A significant number of actions now take arguments that are evaluated as
log-format expressions. Some of them are called "fmt", others "string".
The description of the argument sometimes just says "the log-format
string" or "log format" or "custom log format" etc. Most of them do not
mention the section to visit, and section 8.2 speaking about log-format
is very centric on logs usage (the primary use case), making all of this
very confusing for newcomers.
Since section 8.2.6 is titled "Custom log format" and describes the syntax
to be used with the "log-format" (and other) directives, let's call this
"Custom log format" everywhere and mention section 8.2.6. When the field
was called "string", it was also renamed to "fmt".
It doesn't seem worth backporting this, unless it applies fine.
Since 2.5 with commit 98b930d043 ("MINOR: ssl: Define a default https
log format"), some log-format sections were shifted a bit without having
been renumberred, causing 8.2.4 to be referenced as the custom log
format while it's in fact 8.2.6. This patch fixes the affected
locations.
In addition two places mentioned 8.2.6 instead of 8.2.5 for the error
log format.
This can be backported to 2.6.
Currently haproxy does not support QUIC connection migration. This is
advertized to clients on their connections. Document this in the first
QUIC related paragraph.
This should be backported up to 2.6.
Define a new server keyword pool-conn-name. The purpose of this keyword
will be to identify connections inside the idle connections pool,
replacing SNI in case SSL is not wanted.
This keyword uses a sample expression argument. It thus can reuse
existing function parse_srv_expr() for parsing. In the future, it may be
necessary to define a keyword variant which uses a logformat for
extensability.
This patch only implement parsing. Argument is stored inside new server
field <pool_conn_name> and expression is generated in
_srv_parse_finalize() into <pool_conn_name_expr>.
If pool-conn-name is not set but SNI is, the latter is reused
automatically as pool-conn-name via _srv_parse_finalize(). This ensures
current reuse behavior remains compatible and idle connection reuse will
not mix connections with different SNIs by mistake.
Main usage will be for rhttp when SSL is not wanted between the two
haproxy instances. Previously, it was possible to use "sni" keyword even
without SSL on a server line which have a similar effect. However,
having a dedicated "pool-conn-name" keyword is deemed clearer. Besides,
it would allow for more complex configuration where pool-conn-name and
SNI are use in parallel with different values.
Previous commit introduce new protection mechanism to forbid
communications with clients which use a privileged source port. By
default, this mechanism is disabled for every protocols.
This patch changes the default value and activate the protection
mechanism for QUIC protocol. This is justified as it is a probable sign
of DNS/NTP amplification attack.
This is labelled as major as it can be a breaking change with some
network environments.
This commit introduces a new global setting named
harden.reject_privileged_ports.{tcp|quic}. When active, communications
with clients which use privileged source ports are forbidden. Such
behavior is considered suspicious as it can be used as spoofing or
DNS/NTP amplication attack.
Value is configured per transport protocol. For each TCP and QUIC
distinct code locations are impacted by this setting. The first one is
in sock_accept_conn() which acts as a filter for all TCP based
communications just after accept() returns a new connection. The second
one is dedicated for QUIC communication in quic_recv(). In both cases,
if a privileged source port is used and setting is disabled, received
message is silently dropped.
By default, protection are disabled for both protocols. This is to be
able to backport it without breaking changes on stable release.
This should be backported as it is an interesting security feature yet
relatively simple to implement.
On todays large systems, it's not always desired to run on all threads
for light loads, and usually users enforce nbthread to a lower value
(e.g. 8). The problem is that this is a fixed value, and moving such
configs to smaller machines continues to enforce the value and this
becomes extremely unproductive due to having more threads than CPUs.
This also happens quite a bit in VMs, containers, or cloud instances
of various sizes.
This commit introduces the thread-hard-limit setting that allows to only
set an upper bound to the number of threads without raising a lower value.
This means that using "thread-hard-limit 8" will make sure that no more
than 8 threads will be used when available, but it will remain two when
run on a dual-core machine.
It's quite frustrating, particularly on the command line, not to have
access to the list of available levels and verbosities when one does
not exist for a given source, because there's no easy way to find them
except by starting without and connecting to the CLI. Let's enumerate
the list of supported levels and verbosities when a name does not match.
For example:
$ ./haproxy -db -f quic-repro.cfg -dt h2:help
[NOTICE] (9602) : haproxy version is 3.0-dev12-60496e-27
[NOTICE] (9602) : path to executable is ./haproxy
[ALERT] (9602) : -dt: no such trace level 'help', available levels are 'error', 'user', 'proto', 'state', 'data', and 'developer'.
$ ./haproxy -db -f quic-repro.cfg -dt h2:user:help
[NOTICE] (9604) : haproxy version is 3.0-dev12-60496e-27
[NOTICE] (9604) : path to executable is ./haproxy
[ALERT] (9604) : -dt: no such trace verbosity 'help' for source 'h2', available verbosities for this source are: 'quiet', 'clean', 'minimal', 'simple', 'advanced', and 'complete'.
The same is done for the CLI where the existing help message is always
displayed when entering an invalid verbosity or level.
This reverts commits 885e40494c and
dff9807188.
We decided to spend some time to refactor and rationnalize the SPOE for the
3.1. Thus there is no reason to still consider it as deprecated for the
3.0. Compatibility between the both versions will be maintained.
See #2502 for more info.
The load keyword from the documentation has its own section to be
readable (like the server or bind options section).
The ocsp-update keyword was move from the bind section to the crt-list
load one.

The header of a new management guide chapter, "13.1. Linux capabilities
support", is not rendered in HTML format in a proper way, because of missing
dots at the end of this chapter's number.
This option allow to disable completely the ocsp-update.
To achieve this, the ocsp-update.mode global keyword don't rely anymore
on SSL_SOCK_OCSP_UPDATE_OFF during parsing to call
ssl_create_ocsp_update_task().
Instead, we will inherit the SSL_SOCK_OCSP_UPDATE_* value from
ocsp-update.mode for each certificate which does not specify its own
mode.
To disable completely the ocsp without editing all crt entries,
ocsp-update.disable is used instead of "ocsp-update.mode" which is now
only used as the default value for crt.
Since the ocsp-update is not strictly a tuning of the SSL stack, but a
feature of its own, lets rename the option.
The option was also missing from the index.
Implement basic support for glitches on QUIC multiplexer. This is mostly
identical too glitches for HTTP/2.
A new configuration option named tune.quic.frontend.glitches-threshold
is defined to limit the number of glitches on a connection before
closing it.
Glitches counter is incremented via qcc_report_glitch(). A new
qcc_app_ops callback <report_susp> is defined. On threshold reaching, it
allows to set an application error code to close the connection. For
HTTP/3, value H3_EXCESSIVE_LOAD is returned. If not defined, default
code INTERNAL_ERROR is used.
For the moment, no glitch are reported for QUIC or HTTP/3 usage. This
will be added in future patches as needed.
Based on Willy's idea (from 3.0-dev6 announcement message): in this patch
we try to reduce the max latency that can be caused by running lua scripts
with default settings.
Indeed, by default, hlua engine is allowed to process up to 10k
instructions per batch. While this value was found to be the optimal one
for a single thread, it turns out that keeping a thread busy for 10k lua
instructions could increase thread contention. This is especially true
when the script is loaded with 'lua-load', because in that case the
current thread owns the main lua lock and prevent other threads from
making any progress if they're also waiting on the main lock.
Thanks to Thierry Fournier's work, we know that performance-wise we can
reach optimal performance by sticking between 500 and 10k instructions
per batch. Given that, when the script is loaded using 'lua-load', if no
"tune.lua.forced-yield" was set by the user, we automatically divide the
default value (10K) by the number of threads haproxy can use to reduce
thread contention (given that all threads could compete for the main lua
lock), however we make sure not to return a value below 500, because
Thierry's work showed that this would come with a significant performance
loss.
The historical behavior may still be enforced by setting
"tune.lua.forced-yield" to 10000 in the global config section.
When support for UUIDv7 was added in commit
aab6477b67
the specification still was a draft.
It has since been published as RFC 9562.
This patch updates all UUID references from the obsoleted RFC 4122 and the
draft for RFC 9562 to the published RFC 9562.

- MEDIUM: dynbuf: implement emergency buffers
- MEDIUM: dynbuf: use emergency buffers upon failed memory allocations
The buffer reserve set by tune.buffers.reserve has long been unused, and
in order to deal gracefully with failed memory allocations we'll need to
resort to a few emergency buffers that are pre-allocated per thread.
These buffers are only for emergency use, so every time their count is
below the configured number a b_free() will refill them. For this reason
their count can remain pretty low. We changed the default number from 2
to 4 per thread, and the minimum value is now zero (e.g. for low-memory
systems). The tune.buffers.limit setting has always been a problem when
trying to deal with the reserve but now we could simplify it by simply
pushing the limit (if set) to match the reserve. That was already done in
the past with a static value, but now with threads it was a bit trickier,
which is why the per-thread allocators increment the limit on the fly
before allocating their own buffers. This also means that the configured
limit is saner and now corresponds to the regular buffers that can be
allocated on top of emergency buffers.
At the moment these emergency buffers are not used upon allocation
failure. The only reason is to ease bisecting later if needed, since
this commit only has to deal with resource management.
The goal is to indicate how critical the allocation is, between the
least one (growing an existing buffer ring) and the topmost one (boot
time allocation for the life of the process).
The 3 tcp-based muxes (h1, h2, fcgi) use a common allocation function
to try to allocate otherwise subscribe. There's currently no distinction
of direction nor part that tries to allocate, and this should be revisited
to improve this situation, particularly when we consider that mux-h2 can
reduce its Tx allocations if needed.
For now, 4 main levels are planned, to translate how the data travels
inside haproxy from a producer to a consumer:
- MUX_RX: buffer used to receive data from the OS
- SE_RX: buffer used to place a transformation of the RX data for
a mux, or to produce a response for an applet
- CHANNEL: the channel buffer for sync recv
- MUX_TX: buffer used to transfer data from the channel to the outside,
generally a mux but there can be a few specificities (e.g.
http client's response buffer passed to the application,
which also gets a transformation of the channel data).
The other levels are a bit different in that they don't strictly need to
allocate for the first two ones, or they're permanent for the last one
(used by compression).
At the beginning of the filter class section, we encourage the user to
check out filters.txt file to get to know how the filters API works
within haproxy.
However the file location is incorrect. The proper directory to look for
the file is: doc/internals/api.
It should be backported up to 2.5.
Thanks to the previous fix, it is now possible to get the number of opened
streams for a connection and the negociated limit. Here, corresponding
sample feches are added, in fc_ and bc_ scopes.
On frontend side, the limit of streams is imposed by HAProxy. But on the
backend side, the limit is defined by the server. it may be useful for
debugging purpose because it may explain slow-downs on some processing.
It is now possible to retrieve some info about the abort received for a
server or a client stream, if any.
* fs.aborted and bs.aborted can be used to know if an abort was received
on frontend or backend side. A boolean is returned.
* fs.rst_code and bs.rst_code return the code of the received RESET_STREAM
frame for a H2 stream or the code of the received STOP_SENDING frame for
a QUIC stream. In both cases, the error code attached to the frame is
returned. The sample fetch fails if no such frame was received or if the
stream is not an H2/QUIC stream.

If 'namespace' keyword is used in the backend server settings or/and in the
bind string, it means that haproxy process will call setns() to change its
default namespace to the configured one and then, it will create a
socket in this new namespace. setns() syscall requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN
capability in the process Effective set (see man 2 setns). Otherwise, the
process must be run as root.
To avoid to run haproxy as root, let's add cap_sys_admin capability in the
same way as we already added the support for some other network capabilities.
As CAP_SYS_ADMIN belongs to CAP_SYS_* capabilities type, let's add a separate
flag LSTCHK_SYSADM for it. This flag is set, if the 'namespace' keyword was
found during configuration parsing. The flag may be unset only in
prepare_caps_for_setuid() or in prepare_caps_from_permitted_set(), which
inspect process EUID/RUID and Effective and Permitted capabilities sets.
If system doesn't support Linux capabilities or 'cap_sys_admin' was not set
in 'setcap', but 'namespace' keyword is presented in the configuration, we
keep the previous strict behaviour. Process, that has changed uid to the
non-priviledged user, will terminate with alert. This alert invites the user
to recheck its configuration.
In the case, when haproxy will start and run under a non-root user and
'cap_sys_admin' is not set, but 'namespace' keyword is presented, this patch
does not change previous behaviour as well. We'll still let the user to try
its configuration, but we inform via warning, that unexpected things, like
socket creation errors, may occur.
The ocsp_update.http_proxy global option allows to set an HTTP proxy
address which will be used to send the OCSP update request with an
absolute form URI.

change over time, the wait condition will be adjusted without renaming
it.
CBOR in hex format as implemented in previous commit is convenient because
the produced output is portable and can easily be embedded in regular
syslog payloads.
However, one of the goal of CBOR implementation is to be able to produce
"Concise Binary" object representation. Here is an excerpt from cbor.io
website:
"Some applications also benefit from CBOR itself being encoded in
binary. This saves bulk and allows faster processing."
Currently we don't offer that with '+cbor', quite the opposite actually
since a text string encoded with '+cbor' option will be larger than a
text string encoded with '+json' or without encoding at all, because for
each CBOR binary byte, 2 characters will be emitted.
Hopefully, the sink/log API allows for binary data to be passed as
parameter, this is because all relevant functions in the chain don't rely
on the terminating NULL byte and take a string pointer + string length as
parameter. We can actually rely on this property to support the '+bin'
option when combined with '+cbor' to produce RAW binary CBOR output.
Be careful though, as this is only intended for use with set-var-fmt or to
send binary data to capable UDP/ring endpoints.
Example:
log-format "%{+cbor,+bin}o %(test)[bin(00AABB)]"
Will produce:
bf64746573745f4300aabbffff
(output was piped to `hexdump -ve '1/1 "%.2x"'` to dump raw bytes as HEX
characters)
With cbor.me pretty printer, it gives us:
BF # map(*)
64 # text(4)
74657374 # "test"
5F # bytes(*)
43 # bytes(3)
00AABB # "\u0000\xAA\xBB"
FF # primitive(*)
FF # primitive(*)
