The "hash-type xxx none" is broken for keys that are not in type string
because the sample fetch call casts them to SMP_T_BIN, that tends to
preserve the original format (integers, IP addresses etc), but the
gen_hash() function in case of BE_LB_HFCN_NONE expects to read a string
representing a number, that it parses to retrieve the value, and just
fails on many binary types. For example, the following just always
returns key 0:
balance hash rand()
hash type consistent none
An ugly workaround is to make sure the expression returns a string, for
example this:
balance hash rand(),concat()
hash type consistent none
In order to fix most cases here, we force the conversion to type string
when using BE_LB_HFCN_NONE, but a better approach would require a larger
rework and split gen_hash() or change it to accept an integer as well,
so that the caller could cast to SMP_T_INT for BE_LB_HFCN_NONE and pass
the resulting number already parsed with the least information loss. In
this case even IPv4 addresses would be preserved.
The current approach at least addresses the initially envisioned use
cases, and the limitations have been added to the doc. This can be
backported to 3.0 though it's not really important.

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)
