Re: Detecting when KeepAlive connection timeouts (retrieving the browser fd)
On Mon, Aug 24, 2009 at 00:08, Alexander Farberalexander.far...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, I have a multiplayer game with Flash clients: 1) The Flash client sends HTTP requests to the Apache module, 2) then the module write()s it over a Unix pipe to the game daemon, 3) then the Apache module read()s the daemon's response 4) and finally ap_rwrite()s it back to the browser. Because I want to implement a server push, my game daemon doesn't write() anything back to the Apache module when there are no new infos, but blocks instead (i.e. the step 3 above blocks). When the blocking HTTP requests timeouts, I notice this at the Flash client and just restart it. My problem is that at the game daemon side I don't notice this, since the Apache module itself can only notice the timeout in the step 4 (but it doesn't come sofar - it blocks in step 3). So I think I should select() or poll() on 2 fds in my Apache module - one is the Unix pipe to the game daemon and another fd should be the socket fd to the browser. My question is how do I retrieve the latter fd, so that I can select() or poll() on it? Hook pre_connection(conn_rec *c, void *csd) The csd is the abstract type apr_socket_t. This one has a field socketdes. I think this is the descriptor you are looking for. Please note that I base my recommendation on Apache 2.2.x (not 1.3.x)! Also, I have not tried out the solution I'm proposing ;-). S Thank you Alex PS: I'm using Apache 1.3.29 on OpenBSD 4.5 with KeepAlive On and KeepAliveTimeout 300 -- A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. Q: Why is top-posting frowned upon?

Patches welcome. On 8/23/09 11:58 PM, tim robertson tim...@email.com wrote: . Events will help Apache server handle lots of concurrent connections because currently Apache cannot handle 10,000 concurrent connections on a low end single core server without Apache crashing or running very slow. FWIW, we very easily handle 50k+ concurrent connections on fairly modest hardware - 4 total cores, 4-8GB of RAM. (That's a very affordable server.) If you need to handle 10k concurrent clients and only have a single core box, you have other issues. -- Brian Akins

Speaking of fastCGI, wasn't a fastCGI module donated to the incubator? Maybe it's time to look more into it if people aren't already. ~Jorge On Mon, Aug 24, 2009 at 8:24 PM, Akins, Brianbrian.ak...@turner.com wrote: On 8/24/09 1:58 PM, Paul Querna p...@querna.org wrote: They then switch to lighttpd, because it is so much faster, mostly because it runs all the dynamic langauges via FastCGI, like we should. +1 I still like the idea (maybe it was yours, Paul) of running basically everything externally using HTTP as the protocol. Especially, if we supported things like basic external process management (like fcgid ) and ability to use domain sockets as well as TCP (it may be academic, but there can be some nice performance gains). I still like lua embedded, though. (Or something similar) -- Brian Akins Chief Operations Engineer Turner Digital Media Technologies

Modified: httpd/httpd/trunk/include/ap_listen.h httpd/httpd/trunk/server/listen.c What is the idea or use case for this change? Currently I am having trouble figuring this out. Think perchild. No, that's not what I'm working on (wait-and-see), but it's somewhat analagous with child processes. Basically I want to spawn children that'll have different roles, to be determined at child startup. And they may also sit at different nodes of a virtual network. The children are basically HTTPD slaves, and need to be able to re-use existing MPM code (any MPM) but have their own dedicated listeners. -- Nick Kew
