Subject: EAGAIN?
Date: Mon, 19 Dec 2005 02:07:27 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7vhd95h02o.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> (raw)
I am embarrassed to ask this in public, but anyway.
I was looking at "git grep -n EAGAIN" output and found that many
places check "errno == EAGAIN" without checking "errno ==
EINTR", both for read(2) and write(2). I feel that EAGAIN is
probably not that useful (it probably would not hurt us, though)
because we do not set up nonblocking ourselves, but I am
wondering if there is particular reason to only check EAGAIN but
not EINTR, or if they are just cut and paste errors.
apply.c:: read checks EAGAIN only, write checks both.
cat-file.c: write checks EAGAIN only.
copy.c:: read checks EAGAIN only, write checks both.
mktag.c:: read checks EAGAIN only.
pkt-line.c:: both read and write checks both.
tar-tree.c:: write checks EAGAIN only.
unpack-objects.c:: both read and write checks both.
