Hi,
From MHD documentation
https://www.gnu.org/software/libmicrohttpd/manual/libmicrohttpd.html,
the description of MHD_OPTION_CONNECTION_LIMIT is as follows:
/
//"Maximum number of concurrent connections to accept (followed by an
unsigned int). The default is FD_SETSIZE - 4 (the maximum number of file
descriptors supported by select minus four for stdin, stdout, stderr and
the server socket). In other words, the default is as large as possible."/
I wonder to which number refers that FD_SETSIZE in the documentation. I
mean:
1. To the FD_SETSIZE at system library, which happens to be 1024, at
least in my system looking to
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/sys/select.h and
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/typesizes.h. I understand that in
other system it could be different number from different system
library .h, but always static and independent of the operating
system configuration.
2. To the actual file descriptors limit used by the operating system,
e.g. the one that can be changed with ulimit. In this case, the
setting is dynamic and I understand that the "maximum number of file
descriptor" is taken at process (using MHD) starting time.
Which is the right one?
In addition, has 0 (as valid unsigned int) a meaning for this option? Or
just it mus not be used? Not sure about this looking the documentation...
Thanks!
Best regards,
