[PATCH v3 1/4] tests/vm: Set UseDNS=no in the sshd configuration
Posted by Ilya Leoshkevich 9 months, 3 weeks ago
make vm-build-freebsd sometimes fails with "Connection timed out during
banner exchange". The client strace shows:

    13:59:30 write(3, "SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_9.3\r\n", 21) = 21
    13:59:30 getpid()                       = 252655
    13:59:30 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}], 1, 5000) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}])
    13:59:32 read(3, "S", 1)                = 1
    13:59:32 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}], 1, 3625) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}])
    13:59:32 read(3, "S", 1)                = 1
    13:59:32 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}], 1, 3625) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}])
    13:59:32 read(3, "H", 1)                = 1

There is a 2s delay during connection, and ConnectTimeout is set to 1.
Raising it makes the issue go away, but we can do better. The server
truss shows:

    888: 27.811414714 socket(PF_INET,SOCK_DGRAM|SOCK_CLOEXEC,0) = 5 (0x5)
    888: 27.811765030 connect(5,{ AF_INET 10.0.2.3:53 },16) = 0 (0x0)
    888: 27.812166941 sendto(5,"\^Z/\^A\0\0\^A\0\0\0\0\0\0\^A2"...,39,0,NULL,0) = 39 (0x27)
    888: 29.363970743 poll({ 5/POLLRDNORM },1,5000) = 1 (0x1)

So the delay is due to a DNS query. Disable DNS queries in the server
config.
