3. Squid - diskd bug (ipcs and ipcrm not available)

Squid - diskd bug (ipcs and ipcrm not available)


  • Tested with squid3-dev 3.3.10 pkg 2.2.1

    I'm using squid2 with diskd (on FreeBSD machines) since year 2009 without problems.

    However, I had to modify /usr/local/etc/rc.d/squid script to nicely clean diskd squid processes:

    Modified code for squid stop

    squid_stop() {
	echo "Stopping ${name}."
	${command} ${squid_flags} -k shutdown
	run_rc_command poll
	# http://man.chinaunix.net/newsoft/squid/Squid_FAQ/FAQ-22.html#ss22.8
	sleep 5
	ipcs | grep '^[mq]' | awk '{printf "ipcrm -%s %s\n", $1, $2}' | /bin/sh
	killall -u squid 2>/dev/null
}

    Original code for squid stop

    squid_stop() {
	echo "Stopping ${name}."
	${command} ${squid_flags} -k shutdown
	run_rc_command poll
}

    Now, I'm migrating to squid into pfSense…

    I wanted to do the same with /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/etc/rc.d/squid but ipcs and ipcrm aren't available in pfSense.

    http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ipcrm

    How to see unclean diskd processes?

    ps aux | grep diskd
proxy    740  0.0  0.0 11620  2180  ??  IN   Fri07PM   0:00.01 diskd 99774468 99774469 99774470
proxy  12825  0.0  0.0 11620  2316  ??  IN   Sat11AM   0:00.07 diskd 8102916 8102917 8102918

proxy  20939  0.0  0.0 11620  2180  ??  IN   Fri07PM   0:00.01 diskd 18546692 18546693 18546694

    In the example, squid last stop/start has been at Sunday, 12:24PM. We can see many zombie diskd processes.

  • ipcs and ipcrm removed by design.

    What to do?

    0

  • Download livefs.iso from

    ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/8.3/

    mount it and copy /usr/bin/ipcs and /usr/bin/ipcrm to your system and set them as executables.

    or http://www.filewatcher.com/m/ipcrm.12888-0.html

    64 bit

    fetch -o /usr/bin/ipcs ftp://dns.ruweb.net/FreeBSD/8.3-RELEASE-amd64-livefs/usr/bin/ipcs
chmod 555 /usr/bin/ipcs
fetch -o /usr/bin/ipcrm ftp://dns.ruweb.net/FreeBSD/8.3-RELEASE-amd64-livefs/usr/bin/ipcrm
chmod 555 /usr/bin/ipcrm
rehash

    Now, here is my pfSense running squid with diskd problems

    ipcs

  • Looking at /usr/local/pkg/squid.inc the code writes /usr/local/etc/rc.d/squid.sh

    I patched /usr/local/pkg/squid.inc

    cp -p squid.inc squid.inc-2014-04-30
vi squid.inc

    Original code

    {$squid_local_base}/sbin/squid -k shutdown -f {$squid_conffile_var}
# Just to be sure...
sleep 5
killall -9 squid 2>/dev/null
killall pinger 2>/dev/null

    Patched code

    {$squid_local_base}/sbin/squid -k shutdown -f {$squid_conffile_var}
# Just to be sure...
sleep 5

# http://man.chinaunix.net/newsoft/squid/Squid_FAQ/FAQ-22.html#ss22.8
ipcs | grep '^[mq]' | awk '{printf "ipcrm -%s %s\\n", $1, $2}' | /bin/sh

killall -9 squid 2>/dev/null
killall pinger 2>/dev/null

    I modified also /usr/local/etc/rc.d/squid.sh in order to have the changes and stop/start squid. Everything ok!

  • Corrected /usr/local/pkg/squid.inc patched code

    It was

    ipcs | grep '^[mq]' | awk '{printf "ipcrm -%s %s****n", $1, $2}' | /bin/sh

    Must be

    ipcs | grep '^[mq]' | awk '{printf "ipcrm -%s %s**\**n", $1, $2}' | /bin/sh

    Also corrected at previous message.

    For Squid3 (3.4.10_2 0.2.5), on pfsense 2.2 you need ipcs and ipcrm from a 10.1 base.
    The diskd text should reflect that, now it still refers to 8.3.

    diskd uses a separate process to avoid blocking the main Squid process on disk-I/O.
To use ipcs and ipcrm on squid, Download livefs.iso from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/8.3/ mount it and copy /usr/bin/ipcs and /usr/bin/ipcrm to your system and set them as executables.
