aiohttp TLS websocket fails for continously sending packages on ESP32

提供されたESP32の再現環境から始め、aiohttp_ws.pyを通じてwebsocket操作を追跡します。特にreceive、send_str、close、_read_frameを確認し、その後asyncio/stream.pyのエラーを調べます。TLSのシャットダウン動作とメモリ増加を含め、リモートとローカルの失敗を比較します。再現可能な原因を特定し、継続的な2–4 kBのTLS websocketメッセージに対する検証済みの修正を定義できれば、完了とします。

I have an application i want to send TLS / SSL packages over websockets using aiohttp on an ESP32. The problem is that the websockets fail after a short while when using packages that have a little bigger size around 2kB to 4kB.

Here is a simple test script:

import aiohttp
import asyncio
import gc

# allocate and prepare fixed block of data to be sent
b = bytearray(10_000)
for k in range(100):
    p = k*100
    b[p:p] = b'X'*96 + f'{k:3}' + '\n'
mv = memoryview(b)

URL = "wss://somewebsocketserver/echo"
sslctx = False
if URL.startswith("wss:"):
    try:
        import ssl
        
        sslctx = ssl.SSLContext(ssl.PROTOCOL_TLS_CLIENT)
        sslctx.verify_mode = ssl.CERT_NONE
    except Exception:
        pass

async def ws_receive(ws : ClientWebSocketResponse):
    try:
        async for msg in ws:
            if msg.type != aiohttp.WSMsgType.TEXT:
                print('type:', msg.type, repr(msg.data))
    except TypeError as e:
        print('ws_receive', repr(e))
            

async def ws_test_echo(session):
    n = 1
    
    while True:
        ws_receive_task = None
        async with session.ws_connect(URL, ssl=sslctx) as ws:
            ws_receive_task = asyncio.create_task(ws_receive(ws))
            try:
                while True:
                    gc.collect()
                    print('-------------------', n, '------------------------')
                    await ws.send_str(b[0:100*n].decode())
                    n += 1

                    await asyncio.sleep_ms(100)

            except KeyboardInterrupt:
                pass

            finally:
                await ws.close()


async def main():
    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        print('session')
        await ws_test_echo(session)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

remote

I'll get the following exception after a while. Just dealing with the exception is not satisfying since it takes a while and the applicaiton is blocked in that time.

(OSError: 113 = ECONNABORTED)

Noteworthy is that there are always some packages that micropyhon thinks are sent already but don't reach the other side.
I also do not receive a websocket close package.
This was tested on a remote Websocket server that i don't control.

local

When i try it on a local server, i see different problems.

The servers seems to not receive the complete message / only a corrupted message and closes the connection:

The closing of the websocket is also not handled properly by the micropython application / aiohttp. The close package is received but the connection is not closed automatically.

Another problem is that even if i deal with the exceptions and reconnect automatically, my application will eventually crash because of a run out of memory.
This is really problematic to me since i only send messages of size 2k or so.
I guess this is because of the not so memory economical design of aiohttp. For sending and receiving there is always a lot of new memory allocation involved.
The use of preallocation and memoryview seems reasonable here.

This is the local python websocketserver code:

import ssl
import sys
from microdot import Microdot
from microdot.websocket import with_websocket

app = Microdot()

html = '''<!DOCTYPE html>

    <head>
        <title>Microdot Example Page</title>
        <meta charset="UTF-8">
    </head>
    <body>
        <div>
            <h1>Microdot Example Page</h1>
            <p>Hello from Microdot!</p>
            <p><a href="/shutdown">Click to shutdown the server</a></p>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>
'''


@app.route('/')
async def hello(request):
    return html, 200, {'Content-Type': 'text/html'}

@app.route('/echo')
@with_websocket
async def echo(request, ws):
    while True:
        data = await ws.receive()
        print(data)
        await ws.send(data)

@app.route('/shutdown')
async def shutdown(request):
    request.app.shutdown()
    return 'The server is shutting down...'
