This patch adds 3 new configuration variables to allow the number of threads to be tuned, and also to limit the number of server connections from clients.
# The maximum number of concurrent client connections to allow # over all sockets combined. # max_clients = 20 # The minimum limit sets the number of workers to start up # initially. If the number of active clients exceeds this, # then more threads are spawned, upto max_workers limit. # Typically you'd want max_workers to equal maximum number # of clients allowed #min_workers = 5 #max_workers = 20 NB, this patch does not yet implement the logic to automatically spawn more threads upto 'max_workers' - its currently just fixed at the initial 'min_workers' level. I'll address this next time I post it. One question I'd like opinions on, is whether we should have separate 'max client' limits for the local UNIX socket, vs the remotely accessible TCP/TLS sockets ? Or alternatively, follow the postgresql practice, of always allowing the 'root' user to connect to the UNIX socket regardless of limits. Only applying the limits to non-root users on UNIX socket, and TCP sockets libvirtd.aug | 6 ++++++ libvirtd.conf | 19 +++++++++++++++++++ qemud.c | 18 +++++++++++++++++- test_libvirtd.aug | 38 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 4 files changed, 80 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) Daniel diff --git a/qemud/libvirtd.aug b/qemud/libvirtd.aug --- a/qemud/libvirtd.aug +++ b/qemud/libvirtd.aug @@ -13,11 +13,13 @@ module Libvirtd = let str_val = del /\"/ "\"" . store /[^\"]*/ . del /\"/ "\"" let bool_val = store /0|1/ + let int_val = store /[0-9]+/ let str_array_element = [ seq "el" . str_val ] . del /[ \t\n]*/ "" let str_array_val = counter "el" . array_start .
