[PATCH] attempt connects in parallel for IPv6-capable builds

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



getaddrinfo() may return multiple addresses, not all of which
are equally performant.  In some cases, a user behind a non-IPv6
capable network may get an IPv6 address which stalls connect().
Instead of waiting synchronously for a connect() to timeout, use
non-blocking connect() in parallel and take the first successful
connection.

This may increase network traffic and server load slightly, but
makes the worst-case user experience more bearable when one
lacks permissions to edit /etc/gai.conf to favor IPv4 addresses.
