This PR changes the behavior upon a second
GOAWAYon a connection. Before, it raised aProtocolError. After, the GOAWAY is allowed with no further action.Duplicate GOAWAYs have been seen irl with
dnsdist, which uses thenghttp2library.Per rfc9113, section 6.8, GOAWAY may be resent:
if there is a delay between an earlier GOAWAY and closing the socket
to send different values
I considered letting :goaway fall through to the
elsecondition and raising after a 15 second delay. However, I believe 15 seconds would still be too small to satisfy conditions of an intentional delay between first and second GOAWAY frames.For example, a server could send GOAWAY to indicate no new streams, but continue to finish existing streams which could easily take longer than 15 seconds. When finished, the server is likely to send a second GOAWAY when preparing to close the socket. This scenario would be normal behavior for a server performing a graceful shutdown with medium-to-long running requests.
