Hey, What's the bug exactly? The design of systemd is to enforce the FD limit. This is coming from the init 0 level of the design and due to this, squid cannot "patch" the kernel at runtime like any other process. The OS and systemd do not give any API to allow a request for"more FD". I assume that these days it makes sense for a request from the kernel or systemd to implement such a feature but I don't know if anyone have worked on this.

Your cache is running out of filedescriptors according to the bug report: "Under systemd the default is not to have any limitation at all." which seems not to be true, but: Unfortunately there are still some bugs that needs to be straightened out upstream for Squid to use the --with-filedescriptors value when there is *no* specific upper limit provided by the OS. limits when I log in (ssh or console) are 1024(soft) and 1048576 (hard) and yet squid starts with 1024 FDs. I have configured: # cat /etc/systemd/system/squid.service.d/override.conf [Service] LimitNOFILE=65536 and after reloading systemd: # systemctl daemon-reload and restart squid it seems to work properly: 2022/08/02 15:52:28 kid1| With 65536 file descriptors available does anyone encounter this bug? How do you fix it? -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uhlar@xxxxxxxxxxx ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
