SubjectRe: connection failure after "tcp: remove max_qlen_log"
From
We licensed the java software. As far as I can tell, the connection is
for IPC with a child process. There should not be large RTT.

I will contact vendor regarding to listen(fd,0) issue, on Monday.

I am not fully convinced, that is the problem. I saw that man page for
listen. However accept() works, in python, with backlog = 0. The java
software works with kernel build one commit before.


strace for blocking:

listen(3, 0) = 0
accept(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(37562),
sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, [16]) = 4
sendto(4, "ping\n", 5, 0, NULL, 0) = 5
recvfrom(4, "sd\n", 100, 0, NULL, NULL) = 3
close(4) = 0
accept(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(37564),
sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, [16]) = 4
sendto(4, "ping\n", 5, 0, NULL, 0) = 5
recvfrom(4, "sd\n", 100, 0, NULL, NULL) = 3
close(4) = 0
accept(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(37572),
sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, [16]) = 4
sendto(4, "ping\n", 5, 0, NULL, 0) = 5
recvfrom(4, "bbb\n", 100, 0, NULL, NULL) = 4
close(4) = 0
accept(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(37574),
sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, [16]) = 4
sendto(4, "ping\n", 5, 0, NULL, 0) = 5
recvfrom(4, "aaa\n", 100, 0, NULL, NULL) = 4
close(4) = 0
accept(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(37636),
sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, [16]) = 4
sendto(4, "ping\n", 5, 0, NULL, 0) = 5
recvfrom(4, "s\n", 100, 0, NULL, NULL) = 2
close(4) = 0
accept(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(37638),
sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, [16]) = 4
sendto(4, "ping\n", 5, 0, NULL, 0) = 5
recvfrom(4, "\n\n\n", 100, 0, NULL, NULL) = 3
close(4) = 0

What am i missing ?

thanks
