Linux Too many open files 报错

问题

在进行性能测试时,经常会出现 "Too many open files" 报错。

原因

"Too many open files"是Linux系统中常见的错误,从字面意思上看就是说程序打开的文件数过多。

不过这里的files不单是文件的意思,也包括打开的通讯链接(比如socket),正在监听的端口等等,所以有时候也可以叫做句柄(handle),这个错误通常也可以叫做句柄数超出系统限制。引起的原因就是进程在某个时刻打开了超过系统限制的文件数量以及通讯链接数。

解决方案

Linux查看句柄限制

LINUX对能够打开的文件句柄的数量做了限制,限制是分为三个层面:系统层面,用户层面和进程层面。

系统层面

sh
// 系统句柄限制
zhangp@ubuntu:~$ cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
9223372036854775807

用户层面

sh
zhangp@ubuntu:~$ ulimit -a
core file size          (blocks, -c) 0
data seg size           (kbytes, -d) unlimited
scheduling priority             (-e) 0
file size               (blocks, -f) unlimited
pending signals                 (-i) 256850
max locked memory       (kbytes, -l) 65536
max memory size         (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files                      (-n) 1024
pipe size            (512 bytes, -p) 8
POSIX message queues     (bytes, -q) 819200
real-time priority              (-r) 0

virtual memory          (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks                      (-x) unlimited

// 其中1024为用户句柄限制
open files                      (-n) 1024

进程层面

sh

永久修改

  1. 修改/etc/security/limits.conf文件内容。
txt
# /etc/security/limits.conf
#
#Each line describes a limit for a user in the form:
#
#<domain>        <type>  <item>  <value>
#
#Where:
#<domain> can be:
#        - a user name
#        - a group name, with @group syntax
#        - the wildcard *, for default entry
#        - the wildcard %, can be also used with %group syntax,
#                 for maxlogin limit
#        - NOTE: group and wildcard limits are not applied to root.
#          To apply a limit to the root user, <domain> must be
#          the literal username root.
#
#<type> can have the two values:
#        - "soft" for enforcing the soft limits
#        - "hard" for enforcing hard limits
#
#<item> can be one of the following:
#        - core - limits the core file size (KB)
#        - data - max data size (KB)
#        - fsize - maximum filesize (KB)
#        - memlock - max locked-in-memory address space (KB)
#        - nofile - max number of open file descriptors
#        - rss - max resident set size (KB)
#        - stack - max stack size (KB)
#        - cpu - max CPU time (MIN)
#        - nproc - max number of processes
#        - as - address space limit (KB)
#        - maxlogins - max number of logins for this user
#        - maxsyslogins - max number of logins on the system
#        - priority - the priority to run user process with
#        - locks - max number of file locks the user can hold
#        - sigpending - max number of pending signals
#        - msgqueue - max memory used by POSIX message queues (bytes)
#        - nice - max nice priority allowed to raise to values: [-20, 19]
#        - rtprio - max realtime priority
#        - chroot - change root to directory (Debian-specific)
#
#<domain>      <type>  <item>         <value>
#

#*               soft    core            0
#root            hard    core            100000
#*               hard    rss             10000
#@student        hard    nproc           20
#@faculty        soft    nproc           20
#@faculty        hard    nproc           50
#ftp             hard    nproc           0
#ftp             -       chroot          /ftp
#@student        -       maxlogins       4
