From 1107799dade18adccfca5097341b6dfb4977e69e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Blake Date: Mon, 22 Feb 2021 21:34:55 -0500 Subject: [PATCH 19/54] qemu-nbd: Use SOMAXCONN for socket listen() backlog MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit RH-Author: Eric Blake Message-id: <20210222213455.320104-2-eblake@redhat.com> Patchwork-id: 101192 O-Subject: [RHEL-AV-8.4.0 qemu-kvm PATCH 1/1] qemu-nbd: Use SOMAXCONN for socket listen() backlog Bugzilla: 1925345 RH-Acked-by: Richard Jones RH-Acked-by: Sergio Lopez Pascual RH-Acked-by: Daniel P. Berrange Our default of a backlog of 1 connection is rather puny; it gets in the way when we are explicitly allowing multiple clients (such as qemu-nbd -e N [--shared], or nbd-server-start with its default "max-connections":0 for unlimited), but is even a problem when we stick to qemu-nbd's default of only 1 active client but use -t [--persistent] where a second client can start using the server once the first finishes. While the effects are less noticeable on TCP sockets (since the client can poll() to learn when the server is ready again), it is definitely observable on Unix sockets, where on Linux, a client will fail with EAGAIN and no recourse but to sleep an arbitrary amount of time before retrying if the server backlog is already full. Since QMP nbd-server-start is always persistent, it now always requests a backlog of SOMAXCONN; meanwhile, qemu-nbd will request SOMAXCONN if persistent, otherwise its backlog should be based on the expected number of clients. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1925045 for a demonstration of where our low backlog prevents libnbd from connecting as many parallel clients as it wants. Reported-by: Richard W.M.
