Haproxy and http chunked trailers (4 replies)

Hi,

We have started using Http trailers in http chunked request. Http trailers
are pretty well defined in the spec but seems like not widely used. We
have haproxy forwarding the trailers to Apache tomcat and it is all
working fine, I just wanted to confirm from the group that it is working
by design and won¹t stop working in some future release :)

Our request looks like this:

<<<<
telnet somehost 80
POST /some-path HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Basic XXXX=
Host: somehost.domain.com
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Trailer: My-Test-Trailer

My-Test-Trailer: some-value-new
<<<<

As I said, the trailer My-Test-Trailer is forwarded to the backends and
all good as of now.


Thanks
Sachin
