[jira] [Commented] (DISPATCH-571) Driver spins when a listener accepts a socket while FDs are all in use

["Alan Conway (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-571?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16033419#comment-16033419 ] 

Alan Conway commented on DISPATCH-571:
--------------------------------------

This can be solved without a time out if we handle the ENFILE/EMFILE errors properly in the proactor (PROTON-1495). The router should reject connections as long as it has no FDs and resume normal operation when some existing FDs are closed.

> when operating as a server and using listeners, if the number of open FDs is equal to the limit on FDs, accept will return an error and the driver will spin at 100% cpu until an FD is freed up for the incoming connection.
> Suggested fix:
> If "accept" returns a "too many open files" error (ENFILE or EMFILE), the listening socket should be taken out of the read-fds for a time (say one second) before retrying.
> If this is not practical to do in Proton, the driver should provide hooks for the encapsulating application to use to provide this holdoff.
