This seems to work more or less as expected for me on linux
(Debian/sid) on amd64 using libfbclient2 from firebird 3.0.1.
What is a bit strange is that I get an error that seems to be coming
from the firebird client:
$ time perl test.pl
start connect
DBI connect('database=nonexistent;host=192.168.0.16;','sysdba',...) failed: Unsuccessful execution caused by a system error that precludes successful execution of subsequent statements
-Unable to complete network request to host "192.168.0.16".
-Failed to establish a connection. at test.pl line 11.
connect failed: Unsuccessful execution caused by a system error that precludes successful execution of subsequent statements
-Unable to complete network request to host "192.168.0.16".
-Failed to establish a connection. at test.pl line 18.
perl test.pl 0,04s user 0,01s system 1% cpu 3,113 total
This may be caused by some linux-related thing, causing the network
connection to fail quick.
Interestingly, if I change "alarm(5)" to "alarm(2)", the result is
similar, but comes after just 2 seconds:
$ time perl test.pl
start connect
connect failed: Unsuccessful execution caused by a system error that precludes successful execution of subsequent statements
-Unable to complete network request to host "192.168.0.16".
-Failed to establish a connection. at test.pl line 18.
perl test.pl 0,04s user 0,01s system 2% cpu 2,051 total
Still, no segfaults.
What's your firebird client version?
