Yet the code in read_data_net and net_get_header both attempt to re-read from a socket that will _never_ have data. (I hit this problem today on blktrace2 - I've got orderly shut downs in place.) Does this pseudo-patch break something? diff --git a/blktrace.c b/blktrace.c index c55b491..9ef7313 100644 --- a/blktrace.c +++ b/blktrace.c @@ -550,7 +550,7 @@ static int read_data_net(struct thread_information *tip, voi ret = recv(nc->in_fd, buf, bytes_left, MSG_WAITALL); if (!ret) - continue; + return 0; else if (ret < 0) { if (errno != EAGAIN) { perror(tip->fn); @@ -1466,8 +1466,7 @@ static int net_get_header(struct net_connection *nc, usleep(1000); continue; } else if (!ret) { - usleep(1000); - continue; + return 0; } else { p += ret; bytes_left -= ret;
