进入套接字echo服务器

Question

I'm trying to implement a simple socket echo server in go this is the code:

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "net"
    "sync"
)

func echo_srv(c net.Conn, wg sync.WaitGroup) {
    defer c.Close()
    defer wg.Done()

    for {
            var msg []byte

            n, err := c.Read(msg)
            if err != nil {
                    fmt.Printf("ERROR: read\n")
                    fmt.Print(err)
                    return
            }
            fmt.Printf("SERVER: received %v bytes\n", n)

            n, err = c.Write(msg)
            if err != nil {
                    fmt.Printf("ERROR: write\n")
                    fmt.Print(err)
                    return
            }
            fmt.Printf("SERVER: sent %v bytes\n", n)
    }
}

func main() {
    var wg sync.WaitGroup

    ln, err := net.Listen("unix", "./sock_srv")
    if err != nil {
            fmt.Print(err)
            return
    }
    defer ln.Close()

    conn, err := ln.Accept()
    if err != nil {
            fmt.Print(err)
            return
    }
    wg.Add(1)
    go echo_srv(conn, wg)

    wg.Wait()
}

For some reason as soon as a client connects, c.Read() does not block and the error message is printed. So, my first question is: Shouldn't c.Read() block until a client sends something to the socket?

And second: After printing the error message, the server does not terminate. This is what I see when executing the program in gdb:

(gdb) run

I have similar echo servers in Python and C and they work fine. For completeness I also post the socket client application below (it works fine with my C and Python servers).

Client:

package main

import (
    "bufio"
    "fmt"
    "net"
    "os"
    "strings"
)

func main() {
    stdin := bufio.NewReader(os.Stdin)

    conn, err := net.Dial("unix", "./sock_srv")
    if err != nil {
            fmt.Print(err)
            return
    }
    defer conn.Close()

    for {
            fmt.Print("Enter message to transmit: ")
            msg, err := stdin.ReadString('\n')
            if err != nil {
                    fmt.Print(err)
                    return
            }

            msg = msg[:len(msg)-1]
            if (strings.ToLower(msg) == "quit") || (strings.ToLower(msg) == "exit") {
                    fmt.Println("bye")
                    return
            }

            n, err := conn.Write([]byte(msg))
            if err != nil {
                    fmt.Print(err)
                    return
            }
            fmt.Printf("CLIENT: sent %v bytes\n", n)

            n, err = conn.Read([]byte(msg))
            if err != nil {
                    fmt.Print(err)
                    return
            }
            fmt.Printf("CLIENT: received %v bytes\n", n)

            fmt.Println("Received message:", msg)
    }
}

Here is a working echo_srv for you. You'll need @jnml's suggestion too!

• actually allocate some buffer to receive into - you made a 0 byte buffer!
• exit neatly on EOF

• only write the bytes received with msg[:n]

   func echo_srv(c net.Conn, wg *sync.WaitGroup) { defer c.Close() defer wg.Done() for { msg := make([]byte, 1000) n, err := c.Read(msg) if err == io.EOF { fmt.Printf("SERVER: received EOF (%d bytes ignored)\\n", n) return } else if err != nil { fmt.Printf("ERROR: read\\n") fmt.Print(err) return } fmt.Printf("SERVER: received %v bytes\\n", n) n, err = c.Write(msg[:n]) if err != nil { fmt.Printf("ERROR: write\\n") fmt.Print(err) return } fmt.Printf("SERVER: sent %v bytes\\n", n) } }

I did not check if it's the culprit, but on the "technical analysis" side I noticed one error in your code: You're passing a copy of a sync.Workgroup to echo_srv . Any changes made to the copy are not effective to the original instance.

Change the signature of echo to:

func echo_srv(c net.Conn, wg *sync.WaitGroup)

and then call it like:

go echo_srv(conn, &wg)

On a side note: Underscores ( _ ) are not used in the middle of idiomatic Go code names. The idiomatic name would be eg. echoSrv instead.
