Crash with filedescriptor > 1024

Hi,

I am using the synchonous mode.

I have been using getdns for over a year on Linux but know I am porting my code to Windows and I am getting an error when the file descriptor is higher than 1024. This happens after a few successful requests.

I am aware of this ticket #222, which says that poll is now the default for the event loop but I can tell that this is not the case; using gdb I was able to see the code going in functions part of the select_eventloop.c and use the select mechanism.

I tested with 1.7.2 and got the same behavior.

What is the solution?

PS. The code should be cleanly failing but it not the case; the request is still attempted but never returns. The result is a thread that consumes 100% of the CPU. Not good!
PPS I am cross-compiling with mingw32-w64

Not good indeed,

I can see in CMakeLists.txt that the default eventloop based on select is chosen when a test trying to compile with poll fails:

# Event loop extension
set(DEFAULT_EVENTLOOP "select_eventloop")
if (ENABLE_POLL_EVENTLOOP)
  if (HAVE_SYS_POLL_H)
    set(TEST_CFLAG "-DHAVE_SYS_POLL_H=1")
  endif ()
  try_compile(USE_POLL_DEFAULT_EVENTLOOP
    ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}
    ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake/tests/test_poll.c
    COMPILE_DEFINITIONS "${TEST_CFLAG}"
    )
  if (USE_POLL_DEFAULT_EVENTLOOP)
    set(DEFAULT_EVENTLOOP "poll_eventloop")
  endif ()
endif ()

Could you share your config.h perhaps to see why it was not included.
Also, I will try to reproduce your issue.

And I agree that in case of a compile for windows and for some reason the select eventloop was choses, fds > 1024 should soft fail...

Here is my config.h file.

This is a significant problem for windows adoption because currently vcpkg builds version 1.7.0 with a hardcoded FD_SETSIZE of 1024.

Not sure how windows tends to handle file descriptors, but in my case, all file descriptors returned by upstream_find_for_netreq were well above 1024:

getdns_return_t
_getdns_submit_stub_request(getdns_network_req *netreq, uint64_t *now_ms)
{
	int fd = -1;
	getdns_dns_req *dnsreq;
	getdns_context *context;

	DEBUG_STUB("%s %-35s: MSG: %p TYPE: %d\n", STUB_DEBUG_ENTRY, __FUNC__,
	           (void*)netreq, netreq->request_type);

	dnsreq = netreq->owner;
	context = dnsreq->context;

	/* This does a best effort to get a initial fd.
	 * All other set up is done async*/
	fd = upstream_find_for_netreq(netreq);

The crash, or in my instance infinite loop comes from the fact the scheduling function fails and doesn't set I think what are the timeout callbacks. So when the handlers run in the future, it turns into an infinite loop.

static getdns_return_t
select_eventloop_schedule(getdns_eventloop *loop,
    int fd, uint64_t timeout, getdns_eventloop_event *event)
{
	_getdns_select_eventloop *select_loop  = (_getdns_select_eventloop *)loop;
	size_t i;

	DEBUG_SCHED( "%s(loop: %p, fd: %d, timeout: %"PRIu64", event: %p, FD_SETSIZE: %d)\n"
	        , __FUNC__, (void *)loop, fd, timeout, (void *)event, FD_SETSIZE);

	if (!loop || !event)
		return GETDNS_RETURN_INVALID_PARAMETER;

	if (fd >= (int)FD_SETSIZE) {
		DEBUG_SCHED( "ERROR: fd %d >= FD_SETSIZE: %d!\n"
		           , fd, FD_SETSIZE);
		return GETDNS_RETURN_GENERIC_ERROR;
	}

I'd suspect there's a potential bug fix to make sure the GETDNS_SCHEDULE_EVENT macro under _getdns_submit_stub_request returns GETDNS_RETURN_GOOD only if the the macro succeeds in scheduling the event. The main fix would be to remove the FD_SETSIZE limit entirely, because file descriptors I think are handed out by the underlying operating system, a program shouldn't rely on the file descriptor it retrieves being in a certain range.

It looks like there needs to be a bit of a rewrite such that fd_events and potentially a few other places are more like a dynamic array holding file descriptors for later use.
