'setsockopt' Errors In Logs On Freebsd And Freenas

I am getting the below errors in the log when starting btsync on FreeBSD and FreeNAS.  I wrote a btsync plugin for FreeNAS and just noticed this when testing advanced options.  It doesn't seem to effect functionality though I presume send and receive buffer sizes aren't being changed accordingly.

[20140112 16:00:45.738] UDP setsockopt(SO_RCVBUF, 2097152) failed: 55[20140112 16:00:45.738] UDP setsockopt(SO_SNDBUF, 2097152) failed: 55

To rule out permissions, virtual environments, and maximum system values, I did the following test.

I ran btsync as root on a host FreeBSD system (not in a jail).  FreeBSD 9.2's default kern.ipc.maxsockbuf is 2097152.  In the config I set 1MB send and receive buffers..

"recv_buf_size" : 1,"send_buf_size" : 1,

A always get the above errors whether or not I..

  • set the send/receive buffers low, high, or don't set them
  • run as root or as an unprivileged user
  • run in a jail or on a host system

I am running into the same problem here. Receiving the following errors on FreeBSD:

 

UDP setsockopt(SO_RCVBUF, 2097152) failed: 55
UDP setsockopt(SO_SNDBUF, 2097152) failed: 55
 
 
And nothing seem to sync. My config file should be simple enough:
 
{
  "device_name": "my device",
  "listening_port" : myport,                       
 
  "storage_path" : "/folderlog/.sync",
  "check_for_updates" : false,
  "lan_encrypt_data" : true,
  "use_upnp" : false,                             
  "download_limit" : 50,
  "upload_limit" : 50,
  "rate_limit_local_peers" : true,
  "shared_folders" :
  [
    {
      "secret" : "my secret",
      "dir" : "/folder",
      "use_relay_server" : false,
      "use_tracker" : false,
      "use_dht" : false,
      "search_lan" : false,
      "use_sync_trash" : true,
      "known_hosts" : ["my IPs"]
    }
  ]
}
 
 

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks

This error together with error code 55 indicate that OS refused to increase buffer size. It should not affect functionality, might affect performance a little bit.

Do you see your linux box in the devices list on other peers?

I see the two boxes with Linux talking to each other just fine (they have read-only key). but the FreeBSD does not find the other boxes, neither the other boxes find the FreeBSD one. The setup is as follows:

 

LAN

|

|--- Linux 1 (RO key) ----------------

|                                                    | Connection ok

|--- Linux 2 (RO key) ----------------

|                                                    X Does not connect

|--- FreeBSD 1 (RW key) -----------

 

No firewalls or any other problem that I can see other than the error I saw on the log:

 

[20140701 08:31:16.254] UDP setsockopt(SO_RCVBUF, 2097152) failed: 55
[20140701 08:31:16.254] UDP setsockopt(SO_SNDBUF, 2097152) failed: 55

Hmmm, ok. This seem to work on the LAN now. Thank you for checking. Now, I have a estrange behavior:

 

LAN

|

|--- Linux 1 (RO key) ----------------                         < ----

|                                                    |                                |

VPN Tunnel                                  |  Connection ok       |                    

|                                                    |                                | > Connection NOT ok

|                                                    |                                |

|--- Linux 2 (RO key) ----------------                                 | 

|                                                    |  Connection ok       |

|--- FreeBSD 1 (RW key) -----------                        < ----

 

Trough the VPN Tunnel, Linux 1 and Linux 2 talk just fine, but FreeBSD does not connect. I know this is more of a FreeBSD issue and Network config, but I want it to put it in here just in case somebody experienced similar issue.
