HTTP 的会话保持 Keep-Alive 信息咋看不到呢？

KEEP-ALIVE

为啥服务端返回没有 Connection: keep-alive 的信息

使用 curl -v 查看 keep alive，服务端没有返回任何 keep-alive 的信息，比较疑惑，于是补充了一下知识。

$ curl -v http://127.0.0.1:8812 http://127.0.0.1:8812

left intact 意思是保留不变的，例句：when the nest is upset no egg is left intact [idiom.] — 覆巢之下无完卵

什么是 Keep-Alive 模式？

HTTP 协议采用请求-应答模式，当使用普通模式，即非 KeepAlive 模式时，每个请求/应答客户和服务器都要新建一个连接，完成之后立即断开连接（HTTP 协议为无连接的协议）；当使用 Keep-Alive 模式（又称持久连接、连接重用）时，Keep-Alive 功能使客户端到服务器端的连接持续有效，当出现对服务器的后继请求时，Keep-Alive 功能避免了建立或者重新建立连接。来源

在 HTTP 1.1 中所有的连接默认都是持续连接，除非特殊声明不支持。

根据 Wiki HTTP 持久连接

在 HTTP 1.0 中, 没有官方的 keepalive 的操作。通常是在现有协议上添加一个指数。如果浏览器支持 keep-alive，它会在请求的包头中添加：

> Connection: Keep-Alive

然后当服务器收到请求，作出回应的时候，它也添加一个头在响应中：

> Connection: Keep-Alive

这样做，连接就不会中断，而是保持连接。当客户端发送另一个请求时，它会使用同一个连接。这一直继续到客户端或服务器端认为会话已经结束，其中一方中断连接。

在 HTTP 1.1 中所有的连接默认都是持续连接，除非特殊声明不支持。HTTP 持久连接不使用独立的 keepalive 信息，而是仅仅允许多个请求使用单个连接。

按照这个思路，我做了一下验证：

HTTP/1.0，果然发完，服务端主动关闭连接了

$ telnet 127.0.0.1 8812
Trying 127.0.0.1...

Escape character is '^]'.

HTTP/1.0，加上 Connection: Keep-Alive，服务器端没关闭连接

通过 netstat 查看端口监听情况

$ netstat -an  | grep 8812
tcp4       0      0  127.0.0.1.8812         127.0.0.1.52493        ESTABLISHED

HTTP 头中的 Keep-Alive

服务端可以这么告知客户端：Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=100 15 秒内还可以再发 100 个请求，然后就会关闭连接了。

The Keep-Alive header is a hop-by-hop header that provides information about a persistent connection. Both client and server are able to provide information independently. Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) Keep-Alive Header
客户端不能设置 keep-alive 的超时时间，这个由服务器端配置。The client cannot specify the timeout, it is the server configuration that determines the maximum timeout value. The extra Keep-Alive header can inform the client how long the server is willing to keep the connection open (timeout=N value) and how many requests you can do over the same connection (max=M) before the server will force a close of the connection.

抓个包玩玩

$ sudo tcpdump -i lo0 -s 0 -n tcp -c 1000 -w /tmp/p1.pcap

tcpdump: listening on lo0, link-type NULL (BSD loopback), capture size 262144 bytes
1000 packets captured
1032 packets received by filter
0 packets dropped by kernel
➜  ~

再用 wireshark 打开 p1.pcap，指定过滤条件 tcp.port == 8087，过滤 src 或 dst port 是 8087 的，就是我们感兴趣的tcp包

go-http-client 关闭 keep-alive 再抓包试试：

$ go-http-client -sleep 1s -keepalive=false
2019/12/31 13:18:46 server http://127.0.1:8812
2019/12/31 13:18:46 sleep 1s
