Hi,

HAProxy 2.2.9 was released on 2021/02/06. It added 51 new commits
after version 2.2.8.

It's basically the same as what was integrated into 2.3.5, plus a few
older fixes that were left under observation in 2.3 for 3 versions. This
explains why this change log will look familiar to those having read the
2.3 one. There's no critical bug in this one but fixes for a few problematic
ases that either have been there for a while or resulted from recent
ncomplete fixes:

  - an issue in filters (compression, spoe, etc) could block response
    headers in empty responses with no content-length ;

  - there was a risk of temporary CLOSE_WAIT on aborted H2 connections since
    the recent fixes for truncated responses. Note that these ones would
    vanish on timeout anyway, hence it was more annoying than dramatic ;

  - the CLI's "abort ssl cert" would purge the old instead of new SSL info;

  - errors on connections would not prevent SSL handshake from being
    performed, leading to wasted CPU cycles that could sometimes maintain
    the load artificially high during contention ;

  - Lua's core.get_info() got broken in previous version due to the missing
    definition of INF_BUILD_INFO in stats ;

  - there was a small risk of crash in tcpchecks when using multiple
    connections ;

  - the previous fix for DNS SRV records was incorrect and had to be
    reverted in 2.3.4 as it was sometimes causing a bad pointer
    dereference and crashing. The code was rechecked and the correct
    fix merged again ;

  - an alignment issue in the XXHash code affecting ARMv6/v7 running
    in 32-bit mode on 64-bit kernels was addressed ; it could cause
    bus errors and crashes in 32-bit chroots or containers when using
    the pattern LRU cache ;

  - a few other really minor issues were addressed

  - "server" definitions in "frontend" sections were mistakenly not
    rejected during parsing, but would generally result in random crashes
    later due to uninitialised fields. They are now properly rejected.

  - two older fixes for rare crashes that had been left baking in 2.3 for
    3 months now were finally backported

In addition, the maximum HTTP/1 chunk size was extended from 2 GB to 4 PB
since there was no more compelling reason to limit ourselves to 32 bits
storage anymore. Last, some of the "show fd" output improvements were
backported as they significantly help when reporting bugs.
