Fix for rc.d script

Currently rc.d script in www/h2o is broken.  Daemon simply don't start with `/usr/local/etc/rc.d/h2o start`.  Attached patch fixes this issue.
Comment 1 Dave Cottlehuber freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-09-10 21:28:57 UTC
Thanks Grzegorz for the patch! I'm new to BSD so forgive my questions & errors.

1. remove PIDDIR and leave pidfile to be set by h2o.conf

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=160784&action=diff#Makefile_sec2

If I read these changes correctly, now we require h2o to start as root, and drop privileges. Is this considered safe enough?

My intent with PIDDIR etc was h2o should be run completely non-privileged, from a daemon process. See https://github.com/h2o/h2o/issues/152 & https://github.com/h2o/h2o/issues/145 for some comments on that.

BTW using daemon mode is a good idea, IIRC this wasn't available when the original port was done, so this is definitely an improvement! thanks.

2. daemon invocation changes

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=160784&action=diff#files/h2o.in_sec2

`grep pid-file: ...` feels tidier.

why is procname set to perl, when /usr/local/bin/h2o is a binary, not perl? Is there a reason for switching from the default?

/usr/local/bin/h2o: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, interpreter /libexec/ld-elf.so.1, for FreeBSD 10.2, not stripped

I +1 this change anyway, I would just like to understand the last points better for myself.
Comment 2 Grzegorz Blach freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-09-10 22:14:18 UTC
Ad. 1)

Design of Unix requires to start h2o as root, since only root can open port < 1024.  H2o needs to listen on port 80, so you can't run this (and many others) server completely non-privileged.  It's save and common pattern to start server as root, open port for listening and then switch to another user.

Ad. 2)

When you want to stop daemon, rc.d script reads PID from PIDFILE and looks for process with given PID and given procname.  If found process is stopped, otherwise process isn't terminated.  H2o in daemon mode uses perl script as top-level process and spawn regular h2o as subprocesses.  In PIDFILE is saved PID which points to this perl script.  When you set procname!=perl (eg. h2o) server can't be found by rc.d script, thus can't be stopped.

Comment 5 Dave Cottlehuber freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-09-14 21:00:27 UTC
Can we reopen this? With this patch I don't get daemon to stop or correctly anymore. I think this is the recent perl update breaking things.

h2o not running? (check /var/run/h2o.pid).

wintermute# killall -9 -m 'h2o|perl'

wintermute# grep pid-file /usr/local/etc/h2o/h2o.conf |cut -d' ' -f2
/var/run/h2o.pid

config snippet:

listen: 80
listen:
    port: 443
    ssl:
...
access-log: /var/log/h2o/access.log
error-log: /var/log/h2o/error.log
pid-file: /var/run/h2o.pid
user: www


To fix this, I think 3 changes are required:

# /usr/local/share/h2o/*
replace all shebangs by full /usr/local/bin/perl path

# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/h2o
procname="/usr/local/bin/perl"

# /usr/ports/www/h2o/Makefile
introduce perl as a dependency which is missing from the original patch.

Which works here at least for me. Is this ok for you Grzegorz?
