for a multiprocess server, I'd like to set SO_REUSEPORT on a TCP listening socket.
You might find that https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10077745 /twistedweb-on-multicore-multiprocessor obviates the need for this option (and thus your follow-up features as well).
Jean-Paul, yes, I am aware of this (awesome) answer;) This works, but has 2 slightly undesirable aspects: 1) it requires to have a master process that creates the socket and starts workers which "adopt" the port. I'd like to be able to fire up workers independently .. with no master at all. 2) the distribution of incoming connections to workers isn't completely uniformly distributed across workers. This problem is explained here (they report up to 3:1 ratios of connections per worker): https://lwn.net/Articles/542629/ https://lwn.net/Articles/542718/ and I could verify this during some experiments (though not such extreme non-uniformity)
Not that Twisted shouldn't offer some way to gain more control over this kind of platform-specific option. But, until it does...
I guess that means there is no "recommended" way currently;) Would you mind giving a tip on how to make use of a CustomPort deriving of Port? How to "plug" that into Twisted? Thanks! /Tobias
Jean-Paul
The option needs to be set _before_ calling bind() and listen() on the socket.
Is there a recommended way of doing this?
One option might be subclassing `twisted.internet.tcp.Port` and overriding `createInternetSocket` - is that recommended?
And if so: how do I make the CustomPort be used with reactor.listenTCP/listenSSL and endpoints?
Any hints appreciated, thanks!
