Historically, we considered a channel cannot send before the connection was established. This was useful to know if the reserve should still be respected for the receives. This was because it was possible to rewrite the request on connection retry (because of http-send-name-header option). However noadays, it is a useless limitation. Once data forwarding is started, there is no longer rewrites on the request at the stream layer (http-send-name-header option is handled by the muxes). And, since it is possible to use small buffers to queue requests, it could be an issue, because the reserve and the small buffer size are the same by default. Once a small request was finally dequeued, the receives on client side were not re-armed because we should still respect the reserve on receives (channel_recv_limit() was returning 0 in that case). To fix the issue, we must consider a channel may send since the underlying stconn has reached the SC_ST_REQ state, instead of SC_ST_EST. Doing so, we are able to ignore the reserve earlier and the receives can be re-armed even with small buffers. There is no reason to backport this patch, except if an issue is reported, because only the 3.4 is concerned. But it could theorically be backported to all stable versions. |

HAProxy
HAProxy is a free, very fast and reliable reverse-proxy offering high availability, load balancing, and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications.
Installation
The INSTALL file describes how to build HAProxy. A list of packages is also available on the wiki.
Getting help
The discourse and the mailing-list are available for questions or configuration assistance. You can also use the slack or IRC channel. Please don't use the issue tracker for these.
The issue tracker is only for bug reports or feature requests.
Documentation
The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. It is available in text format as well as HTML. The wiki is also meant to replace the old architecture guide.
Please refer to the following files depending on what you're looking for:
- INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install HAProxy
- BRANCHES to understand the project's life cycle and what version to use
- LICENSE for the project's license
- CONTRIBUTING for the process to follow to submit contributions
The more detailed documentation is located into the doc/ directory:
- doc/intro.txt for a quick introduction on HAProxy
- doc/configuration.txt for the configuration's reference manual
- doc/lua.txt for the Lua's reference manual
- doc/SPOE.txt for how to use the SPOE engine
- doc/network-namespaces.txt for how to use network namespaces under Linux
- doc/management.txt for the management guide
- doc/regression-testing.txt for how to use the regression testing suite
- doc/peers.txt for the peers protocol reference
- doc/coding-style.txt for how to adopt HAProxy's coding style
- doc/internals for developer-specific documentation (not all up to date)
