------------------------------
Attachment: QPID-4022-conn-limits-rev2-10-with-tests.patch
I put the last patch up for review a week ago but reviews are in Maintenance.
Here is the proposed patch, including fixes to the self tests.
> C++ Broker connection limits by host ip and by user name can get confused
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: QPID-4022

> Project: Qpid
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: C++ Broker
> Affects Versions: 0.16
> Reporter: Chuck Rolke

> The current ACL module uses the ConnectionObserver to watch the life cycle of
> connections. It tries to disallow the creation of too many connections by a
> user or from an IP address. However, the method is uses is flawed especially
> in the cluster case.
> A better strategy to use it to provide approvers in the ConnectionObserver
> scheme and then to call them:
> 1. Limits by IP address are disapproved in the ConnectionFactories. If the
> limit is reached then the factory does not create the connection codec and
> the connection never begins a life cycle. This is enforced at the same point
> in code as the per-broker --max-connection limit using similar enforcement
> methods.
> 2. Limits by user name are disapproved at the same point as user
> authentication happens. Details to follow.
