Leif Hedstrom updated TS-1566:
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 3.3.2
> dynamic update for string vars does not work
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TS-1566
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-1566
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Configuration
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0
> Reporter: Aidan McGurn
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 3.3.2
>
>
> i noticed that when i try to do a dynamic update of the scheme in congestion
> control it doesn't appear to work:
> registerd callback: CongestionControlDefaultSchemeChanged
> this function gets called back correctly when the var:
> CONFIG proxy.config.http.congestion_control.default.congestion_scheme STRING
> per_host
> is updated and 'traffic_line -x' is called..
> however the var returned via r->data (record data) or
> DEFAULT_congestion_scheme_str has not been updated unlike for its integer
> config counterparts -
> Th r->data has been overwritten with rubbish - in fact tracing it back i see
> P_RecCore.i calls
> for (cur_callback = r->config_meta.update_cb_list; cur_callback;
> cur_callback = cur_callback->next) {
> (*(cur_callback->update_cb)) (r->name, r->data_type, r->data,
> cur_callback->update_cookie);
> this then calls before the callback function (r->data is correct at this
> point) a function called 'link_string_alloc' which has been registered via
> this function for all strings in general:
> CC_EstablishStaticConfigStringAlloc(DEFAULT_congestion_scheme_str,
> "proxy.config.http.congestion_control.default.congestion_scheme");
> The link_string_alloc overwrites the string with the passed in cookie var
> which has rubbish - this function looks completely wrong -
> i have commented it out updated string in r->data doesn't get overwritten and
> so is passed through ok -
> ***could anyone explain what link_string alloc is actually needed for and
> does removing this lead to a memory leak?
