If 4096 is not enough and the software requires 8192 to work (which is above the default sysctl limit) we'd better just leave it in the readme and not add the login.conf.d file. Automating just half of it leaves users in a worse position than doing nothing. Really the software should not assume that it has unlimited resources, and scale back when it runs into limits. But that seems a hard concept for some programmers to understand. > > On Sun, January 28, 2024 7:52 pm, Klemens Nanni wrote: > > On Sun, Jan 28, 2024 at 06:15:52PM +0000, Stuart Henderson wrote: > > > >> On 2024/01/27 21:54, open...@systemfailure.net wrote: > >> > >>> According to i2pd's online documentation [1], the maximum number of open > >>> file descriptors is 4096 for a regular node, and 8192 for a floodfill > >>> [2]. > >>> > >>> > >>> I have never measured how many FDs i2pd is really using, but this > >>> software for sure needs a lot of them. > >>> > >>> So I guess we can set 4096 as default value, and inform users in the > >>> README file that this value should be raised to 8192 for floodfills. > >>> > >> > >> 4096 doesn't seem too unreasonable, it's below default levels of > >> kern.maxfiles, so if that's enough for the software I'd be happy with > >> setting > >> that in a login.conf.d file. > > > > Thanks for all you feedback. > > OK? > > > > > > > > Index: Makefile > > =================================================================== > > RCS file: /cvs/ports/net/i2pd/Makefile,v > > diff -u -p -r1.22 Makefile --- Makefile 13 Jan 2024 16:21:39 -0000 > > 1.22 > > +++ Makefile 24 Jan 2024 22:21:26 -0000 > > @@ -3,6 +3,7 @@ COMMENT = client for the I2P anonymous n > > GH_ACCOUNT = PurpleI2P > > GH_PROJECT = i2pd > > GH_TAGNAME = 2.50.2 > > +REVISION = 0 > > > > > > CATEGORIES = net > > HOMEPAGE = https://i2pd.website > > Index: pkg/PLIST > > =================================================================== > > RCS file: /cvs/ports/net/i2pd/pkg/PLIST,v > > diff -u -p -r1.12 PLIST --- pkg/PLIST 20 Dec 2023 22:19:44 -0000 > > 1.12 > > +++ pkg/PLIST 24 Jan 2024 22:30:37 -0000 > > @@ -237,3 +237,7 @@ share/examples/i2pd/tunnels.conf > > @owner _i2pd > > @group _i2pd > > @sample ${SYSCONFDIR}/i2pd/tunnels.conf > > +@owner > > +@group > > +share/examples/login.conf.d/i2pd > > +@sample ${SYSCONFDIR}/login.conf.d/i2pd > > Index: pkg/README > > =================================================================== > > RCS file: /cvs/ports/net/i2pd/pkg/README,v > > diff -u -p -r1.3 README --- pkg/README 8 Nov 2022 12:41:42 -0000 > > 1.3 > > +++ pkg/README 28 Jan 2024 19:51:52 -0000 > > @@ -5,20 +5,7 @@ > > Resource Limits: File Descriptors > > ================================= > > > > > > -By default, the i2pd process runs in the login(1) class of "daemon". > > -The default limits on file descriptors are insufficient to run i2pd; > > instead > > you -should put the _i2pd user and process in their own login(1) class with > > tuned -resources. > > -You should also raise the system-wide maxfiles limit. > > +You should raise the system-wide maxfiles limit: > > > > > > -1.
