There's been some great confusion between proto_type, ctrl_type and
sock_type. It turns out that ctrl_type was improperly chosen because
it's not the control layer that is of this or that type, but the
transport layer, and it turns out that the transport layer doesn't
(normally) denaturate the underlying control layer, except for QUIC
which turns dgrams to streams. The fact that the SOCK_{DGRAM|STREAM}
set of values was used added to the confusion.
Let's replace it with xprt_type which reuses the later introduced
PROTO_TYPE_* values, and update the comments to explain which one
works at what level.
The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. 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)
