Subject: [v4 PATCH] input: Fix EINTR handling when reading from a pipe
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2026 07:45:08 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ad2ABNCVXruuMNvQ@gondor.apana.org.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <adt1kl_3p0r4E7PG@gondor.apana.org.au>

Restore the fallback tee definition so that it actually compiles.

---8<---
Errors from tee(2) should not lead to the fallback path in every
case.  In fact, only EINVAL should trigger an attempt to call
read(2).

Every other error (and zero == EOF) returned by tee(2) should be
treated as if it came from read(2).
