Hi folks, Our QA group (at xxx) using Samba and smbtorture has been seeing a lot of cases where accept returns ECONNABORTED because the system load is high and Samba has a large listen backlog.
Every now and then we get a crash in smbd or in winbindd and winbindd complains of too many open files in the system. In looking at kern_accept, it seems to me that FreeBSD can leak a socket when kern_accept calls soaccept on it but gets ECONNABORTED. This error is the only error returned from tcp_usr_accept. It seems like the socket taken off so_comp is never freed in this case and that there has been a call on soref on it as well, so that something like the following is needed in the error path: ==== //some-path/freebsd/sys/kern/uipc_syscalls.c#1 - /home/rsharpe/dev-src/packages/freebsd/sys/kern/uipc_syscalls.c ==== @@ -433,6 +433,14 @@ */ if (name) *namelen = 0; + /* + * We need to close the socket we unlinked + * so we do not leak it. + */ + ACCEPT_LOCK(); + SOCK_LOCK(so); + soclose(so); goto noconnection; } if (sa == NULL) { I think an soclose is needed at this point because soisconnected has been called on the socket. Do you think this analysis is reasonable? We are using FreeBSD 8.0 but it seems the same is true for 9.0. However, maybe I am wrong since I am not sure if the fdclose call would free the socket, but a quick look suggested that it doesn't. I would appreciate your feedback. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
