Hi,
I have met the problem: when I use the shaping discipline
tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 1:2 tbf latency 50ms burst 1450 rate 50kbit
one of my application (namely, "aMule") starts leaving sockets in
"CLOSING" state. These sockets accumulate and do not disappear.
Eventually I have so many of these dead sockets that the kernel warns
"Out of socket memory" in syslog (That happens when I have more than
5000 dead sockets).
When the discipline above canceled the problem disappears. Now the
questions.
1. Is it problem of my application (=aMule) or QoS.
2. Is there any way to eliminate these "dead" sockets out of kernel memory, like "kill"?
Please, share if you have any ideas.
Using burst 1450 on tbf will drop all packets > 1449 bytes if your MTU is > 1449 then this could be the problem.
