2024-01-29AIO operations now add timers (ticket #2162).Maxim Dounin1-0/+1
Each AIO (thread IO) operation being run is now accompanied with 1-minute timer. This timer prevents unexpected shutdown of the worker process while an AIO operation is running, and logs an alert if the operation is running for too long. This fixes "open socket left" alerts during worker processes shutdown due to pending AIO (or thread IO) operations while corresponding requests have no timers. In particular, such errors were observed while reading cache headers (ticket #2162), and with worker_shutdown_timeout.
2021-11-25HTTP/2: fixed "task already active" with sendfile in threads.Maxim Dounin1-9/+0
With sendfile in threads, "task already active" alerts might appear in logs if a write event happens on the main HTTP/2 connection, triggering a sendfile in threads while another thread operation is already running. Observed with "aio threads; aio_write on; sendfile on;" and with thread event handlers modified to post a write event to the main HTTP/2 connection (though can happen without any modifications). Similarly, sendfile() with AIO preloading on FreeBSD can trigger duplicate aio operation, resulting in "second aio post" alerts. This is, however, harder to reproduce, especially on modern FreeBSD systems, since sendfile() usually does not return EBUSY. Fix is to avoid starting a sendfile operation if other thread operation is active by checking r->aio in the thread handler (and, similarly, in aio preload handler). The added check also makes duplicate calls protection redundant, so it is removed.
2021-10-29Fixed sendfile() limit handling on Linux.Maxim Dounin1-1/+3
On Linux starting with 2.6.16, sendfile() silently limits all operations to MAX_RW_COUNT, defined as (INT_MAX & PAGE_MASK). This incorrectly triggered the interrupt check, and resulted in 0-sized writev() on the next loop iteration. Fix is to make sure the limit is always checked, so we will return from the loop if the limit is already reached even if number of bytes sent is not exactly equal to the number of bytes we've tried to send.
2018-03-19Fixed checking ngx_tcp_push() and ngx_tcp_nopush() return values.Ruslan Ermilov1-1/+1
No functional changes.
2017-03-28Simplified and improved sendfile() code on Linux.Maxim Dounin1-67/+47
The ngx_linux_sendfile() function is now used for both normal sendfile() and sendfile in threads. The ngx_linux_sendfile_thread() function was modified to use the same interface as ngx_linux_sendfile(), and is simply called from ngx_linux_sendfile() when threads are enabled. Special return code NGX_DONE is used to indicate that a thread task was posted and no further actions are needed. If number of bytes sent is less that what we were sending, we now always retry sending. This is needed for sendfile() in threads as the number of bytes we are sending might have been changed since the thread task was posted. And this is also needed for Linux 4.3+, as sendfile() might be interrupted at any time and provides no indication if it was interrupted or not (ticket #1174).
2016-03-31Fixed logging.Sergey Kandaurov1-1/+1
2016-03-18Fixed timeouts with threaded sendfile() and subrequests.Maxim Dounin1-10/+11
If a write event happens after sendfile() but before we've got the sendfile results in the main thread, this write event will be ignored. And if no more events will happen, the connection will hang. Removing the events works in the simple cases, but not always, as in some cases events are added back by an unrelated code. E.g., the upstream module adds write event in the ngx_http_upstream_init() to track client aborts. Fix is to use wev->complete instead. It is now set to 0 before a sendfile() task is posted, and it is set to 1 once a write event happens. If on completion of the sendfile() task wev->complete is 1, we know that an event happened while we were executing sendfile(), and the socket is still ready for writing even if sendfile() did not sent all the data or returned EAGAIN.
2016-03-15Truncation detection in sendfile() on Linux.Maxim Dounin1-0/+26
This addresses connection hangs as observed in ticket #504, and CPU hogs with "aio threads; sendfile on" as reported in the mailing list, see http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-ru/2016-March/057638.html. The alert is identical to one used on FreeBSD.
2016-03-14Fixed handling of EAGAIN with sendfile in threads.Valentin Bartenev1-1/+6
2016-03-03Fixed sendfile in threads (or with aio preload) and subrequests.Maxim Dounin1-0/+11
If sendfile in threads is used, it is possible that multiple subrequests will trigger multiple ngx_linux_sendfile_thread() calls, as operations are only serialized in output chain based on r->aio, that is, on subrequest level. This resulted in "task #N already active" alerts, in particular, when running proxy_store.t with "aio threads; sendfile on;". Fix is to tolerate duplicate calls, with an additional safety check that the file is the same as previously used. The same problem also affects "aio on; sendfile on;" on FreeBSD (previously known as "aio sendfile;"), where aio->preload_handler() could be called multiple times due to similar reasons, resulting in "second aio post" alerts. Fix is the same as well. It is also believed that similar problems can arise if a filter calls the next body filter multiple times for some reason. These are mostly theoretical though.
2015-03-14Added support for offloading Linux sendfile() in thread pools.Valentin Bartenev1-8/+183
2015-02-27Refactored ngx_linux_sendfile_chain() even more.Valentin Bartenev1-46/+60
The code that calls sendfile() was cut into a separate function. This simplifies EINTR processing, yet is needed for the following changes that add threads support.
2014-11-19Fixed type of sendfile() return value on Linux.Valentin Bartenev1-6/+6
There was no real problem since the amount of bytes can be sent is limited by NGX_SENDFILE_MAXSIZE to less than 2G. But that can be changed in the future
2014-08-13Moved writev() handling code to a separate function.Valentin Bartenev1-23/+5
This reduces code duplication and unifies debug logging of the writev() syscall among various send chain functions.
2014-08-13Merged conditions in the ngx_*_sendfile_chain() functions.Valentin Bartenev1-5/+0
No functional changes.
2014-08-13Moved the code for coalescing file buffers to a separate function.Valentin Bartenev1-24/+3
2014-10-07Introduced the ngx_output_chain_to_iovec() function.Valentin Bartenev1-69/+11
It deduplicates code of the send chain functions and uses only preallocated memory, which completely solves the problem mentioned in d1bde5c3c5d2.
2014-11-19Renamed ngx_handle_sent_chain() to ngx_chain_update_sent().Valentin Bartenev1-1/+1
No functional changes.
2014-08-27Fixed counting of sent bytes in the send chain functions on EINTR.Valentin Bartenev1-0/+1
Previously, a value of the "send" variable wasn't properly adjusted in a rare case when syscall was interrupted by a signal. As a result, these functions could send less data than the limit allows.
2014-08-13Generalized definitions of the number of preallocated iovec's.Valentin Bartenev1-9/+2
No functional changes.
2014-08-13Removed the "complete" variable from various send chain functions.Valentin Bartenev1-7/+2
It was made redundant by the previous change, since the "sent" variable is no longer modified.
2014-08-13Moved the code for adjusting sent buffers in a separate function.Valentin Bartenev1-36/+1

2013-08-15Unbreak building on Linux without sendfile64() support.Valentin Bartenev1-3/+3
It was broken in 8e446a2daf48 when the NGX_SENDFILE_LIMIT constant was added to ngx_linux_sendfile_chain.c having the same name as already defined one in ngx_linux_config.h. The newer is needed to overcome a bug in old Linux kernels by limiting the number of bytes to send per sendfile() syscall. The older is used with sendfile() on ancient kernels that works with 32-bit offsets only. One of these renamed to NGX_SENDFILE_MAXSIZE.
2013-08-08Don't lose pointer to first nonempty buf in ngx_*_sendfile_chain().Gleb Smirnoff1-16/+14
In ngx_*_sendfile_chain() when calculating pointer to a first non-zero sized buf, use "in" as iterator. This fixes processing of zero sized buf(s) after EINTR. Otherwise function can return zero sized buf to caller, and later ngx_http_write_filter() logs warning.
2013-05-21Style: remove unnecessary references to HTTP from non-HTTP modules.Piotr Sikora1-1/+1
No functional changes. Signed-off-by: Piotr Sikora <piotr@cloudflare.com>
2012-04-17IOV_MAX handling microoptimization.Maxim Dounin1-4/+6
We now stop on IOV_MAX iovec entries only if we are going to add new one, i.e. next buffer can't be coalesced into last iovec. This also fixes incorrect checks for trailer creation on FreeBSD and Mac OS X, header.nelts was checked instead of trailer.nelts.
