Linux TCP服务器无法绑定到close_wait端口

Question

I tried to let tcp server bind to a close_wait port, but it caused a Errno::EADDRINUSE error.

I created a tcp server that listen on port 55555. Then client connected to that server. After some ops, run ss -at | grep 55555 ss -at | grep 55555 .

# ss -at | grep 55555
LISTEN     0      128                     *:55555                    *:*
FIN-WAIT-2 0      0               127.0.0.1:55555            127.0.0.1:16413
CLOSE-WAIT 0      0               127.0.0.1:16413            127.0.0.1:55555

I tried to bind port 16413 , it caused a Errno::EADDRINUSE error. But if I connected to a ESTAB socket, the socket could bind to the port(such as 22385 below).

# ss -at | grep 55555
LISTEN     0      128                     *:55555                    *:*
ESTAB      0      0               127.0.0.1:22385            127.0.0.1:55555
ESTAB      0      0               127.0.0.1:55555            127.0.0.1:22385 

Some scripts by ruby to reproduce the problem.

tcp_server_close_wait.rb

require 'socket'

server = TCPServer.new 55555 # Server bind to port 2000
loop do
  client = server.accept    # Wait for a client to connect
  client.puts "Hello !"
  client.puts "Time is #{Time.now}"
  client.shutdown(Socket::SHUT_WR)
end

tcp_server.rb

require 'socket'

server = TCPServer.new 55555 # Server bind to port 2000
loop do
  client = server.accept    # Wait for a client to connect
  client.puts "Hello !"
  client.puts "Time is #{Time.now}"
  client.close
end

tcp_client.rb

require 'socket'
include Socket::Constants
socket = Socket.new( AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0 )
sockaddr = Socket.pack_sockaddr_in( 55555, '127.0.0.1' )
socket.connect( sockaddr )
res = socket.read
puts res

sleep 10000

** tcp_bind.rb **

require 'socket'

# use Addrinfo
socket = Socket.new(:INET, :STREAM, 0)
socket.bind(Addrinfo.tcp("0.0.0.0", ARGV[0].to_i))

Create close_wait bind.

1. run ruby tcp_server_close_wait.rb

2. run ruby tcp_client.rb

3. run ss -at | grep 55555 ss -at | grep 55555 to find client port

4. run ruby tcp_bind.rb $client_port

Create ESTAB bind. 1. run ruby tcp_server.rb

2. run ruby tcp_client.rb

3. run ss -at | grep 55555 ss -at | grep 55555 to find client port

4. run ruby tcp_bind.rb $client_port

I repeated the same test with Linux version 4.4.74-18.20 by using C programs.

I got different results than OP.

When SO_REUSEPORT was disabled, binding failed for both ports:

• port of client of established TCP connection (ESTAB)
• port of client of half open TCP connection (CLOSE-WAIT)

When SO_REUSEPORT was enabled (for all sockets), binding success for the both ports.

See socket(7) man page for getting more information about SO_REUSEPORT.
