Since commit 5f940703b3 ("MINOR: log: Don't depends on a stream to process
samples in log-format string") it has become quite obvious that a few sample
fetch functions and converters were still heavily dependent on the presence
of a stream without testing for it.
The capture-req and capture-res converters were in this case and could
crash the process if misused.
This fix adds a check for the stream's existence, and should be backported
to all stable versions up to 1.6.
The url_decode() function used by the url_dec converter and a few other
call points is ambiguous on its processing of the '+' character which
itself isn't stable in the spec. This one belongs to the reserved
characters for the query string but not for the path nor the scheme,
in which it must be left as-is. It's only in argument strings that
follow the application/x-www-form-urlencoded encoding that it must be
turned into a space, that is, in query strings and POST arguments.
The problem is that the function is used to process full URLs and
paths in various configs, and to process query strings from the stats
page for example.
This patch updates the function to differentiate the situation where
it's parsing a path and a query string. A new argument indicates if a
query string should be assumed, otherwise it's only assumed after seeing
a question mark.
The various locations in the code making use of this function were
updated to take care of this (most call places were using it to decode
POST arguments).
The url_dec converter is usually called on path or url samples, so it
needs to remain compatible with this and will default to parsing a path
and turning the '+' to a space only after a question mark. However in
situations where it would explicitly be extracted from a POST or a
query string, it now becomes possible to enforce the decoding by passing
a non-null value in argument.
It seems to be what was reported in issue #585. This fix may be
backported to older stable releases.
It can be sometimes interesting to have a timestamp with a
resolution of less than a second.
It is currently painful to obtain this, because concatenation
of date and date_us lead to a shorter timestamp during first
100ms of a second, which is not parseable and needs ugly ACLs
in configuration to prepend 0s when needed.
To improve this, add an optional <unit> parameter to date sample
to report an integer with desired unit.
Also support this unit in http_date converter to report
a date string with sub-second precision.
This switches explicit calls to various trivial registration methods for
keywords, muxes or protocols from constructors to INITCALL1 at stage
STG_REGISTER. All these calls have in common to consume a single pointer
and return void. Doing this removes 26 constructors. The following calls
were addressed :
- acl_register_keywords
- bind_register_keywords
- cfg_register_keywords
- cli_register_kw
- flt_register_keywords
- http_req_keywords_register
- http_res_keywords_register
- protocol_register
- register_mux_proto
- sample_register_convs
- sample_register_fetches
- srv_register_keywords
- tcp_req_conn_keywords_register
- tcp_req_cont_keywords_register
- tcp_req_sess_keywords_register
- tcp_res_cont_keywords_register
- flt_register_keywords
The current proto_http.c file is huge and contains different processing
domains making it very difficult to work on an alternative representation.
This commit moves some parts to other files :
- ACL registration code => http_acl.c
This code only creates some ACL mappings and doesn't know anything
about HTTP nor about the representation. This code could even have
moved to acl.c but it was not worth polluting it again.
- HTTP sample conversion => http_conv.c
This code doesn't depend on the internal representation but definitely
manipulates some HTTP elements, such as dates. It also has access to
captures.
- HTTP sample fetching => http_fetch.c
This code does depend entirely on the internal representation but is
totally independent on the analysers. Placing it into a different
file will ease the transition to the new representation and the
creation of a wrapper if required. An include file was created due
to CHECK_HTTP_MESSAGE_FIRST() being used at various places.
- HTTP action registration => http_act.c
This code doesn't directly interact with the messages nor the
transaction but it does so via some exported http functions like
http_replace_req_line() or http_set_status() so it will be easier
to change only this after the conversion.
- a few very generic parts were found and moved to http.{c,h} as
relevant.
It is worth noting that the functions moved to these new files are not
referenced anywhere outside of the files and are only called as registered
callbacks, so these files do not even require associated include files.
