SquidPurgeClient fails on FreeBSD; incorrect constants + MSG_EOR w/ SOCK_STREAM
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

On FreeBSD, the new SquidPurgeClient fails to write to the socket it opens (and thus fails to purge from the cache) for a couple of reasons:

  • On FreeBSD, EAGAIN is 35, and EINPROGRESS is 36, which do not match the (linux?) constants defined in SquidPurgeClient.php, thus causing getSocket() to return false when it actually created the socket correctly:

http://fxr.watson.org/fxr/source/sys/errno.h?v=DFBSD

  • On FreeBSD, setting MSG_EOR on a SOCK_STREAM socket (as done in doWrites()) will result in EINVAL, so even if it gets the sockets, writing to them fails:

http://fxr.watson.org/fxr/source/kern/uipc_socket.c?v=OPENBSD;im=bigexcerpts#L378
I believe you are only meant to use MSG_EOR with SOCK_SEQPACKET.

Adjusting the constants to match those of FreeBSD and changing the $flags parameter to 0 in doWrites fixed this problem for me on FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE-p1. Perhaps there's a better way to detect these platform-specific constants?


For what it's worth, I also added in a few more writes for Varnish, because it won't purge gzip and deflate versions unless you ask. Not sure if it's required for Squid (and there might be a better way to do this in VCL, too), but it was much easier with the new architecture:

public function queuePurge( $url ) {

$urlparts = parse_url(str_replace( "\n", '', $url ));
$msg =  'PURGE ' . $urlparts['path'] . " HTTP/1.0\r\n" .
        'Host: ' . $urlparts['host'] . "\r\n".
        "Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n" .
        "Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n" .
        'User-Agent: ' . Http::userAgent() . ' ' . __CLASS__ . "\r\n";
$this->requests[] = $msg . "\r\n";
$this->requests[] = $msg . "Accept-Encoding: gzip\r\n\r\n";
$this->requests[] = $msg . "Accept-Encoding: deflate\r\n\r\n";

...

Perhaps there's a better way to detect these platform-specific constants?

Quoting http://php.net/manual/en/sockets.constants.php:

SOCKET_EAGAIN (integer)
Try again.
SOCKET_EINPROGRESS (integer)
Operation now in progress.

SOCKET_EAGAIN=35 and SOCKET_EINPROGRESS=36

Note: this is still not fixed in 1.32.

Patch (removes EOR flag and uses PHP constants instead of hard-coded ones):

This patch avoids bad request errors from Varnish as the original sends the Accept-Encoding headers slightly incorrectly.

At a glance, the patch looks like it's doing the right thing. PHP is supplying the correct constant values for the OS, we shouldn't use our own hard coded ones.

I'd suggest to not remove the class constants, though, but instead just assign them the value of the global constants, e.g.

const EINPROGRESS = SOCKET_EINPROGRESS;

@IijimaYun could you submit the patch to gerrit? That would make review easier. Though I have to admit that I'm not sure where to find anyone willing to verify the fix on FreeBSD...
