2.6.22-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Florian Zumbiehl [UNIX]: EOF on non-blocking SOCK_SEQPACKET [ Upstream commit: 0a11225887fe6cbccd882404dc36ddc50f47daf9 ] I am not absolutely sure whether this actually is a bug (as in: I've got no clue what the standards say or what other implementations do), but at least I was pretty surprised when I noticed that a recv() on a non-blocking unix domain socket of type SOCK_SEQPACKET (which is connection oriented, after all) where the remote end has closed the connection returned -1 (EAGAIN) rather than 0 to indicate end of file. This is a test case: | #include | #include | #include | #include | #include | #include | #include | | int main(){ | int sock; | struct sockaddr_un addr; | char buf[4096]; | int pfds[2]; | | pipe(pfds); | sock=socket(PF_UNIX,SOCK_SEQPACKET,0); | addr.sun_family=AF_UNIX; | strcpy(addr.sun_path,"/tmp/foobar_testsock"); | bind(sock,(struct sockaddr *)&addr,sizeof(addr)); | listen(sock,1); | if(fork()){ | close(sock); | sock=socket(PF_UNIX,SOCK_SEQPACKET,0); | connect(sock,(struct sockaddr *)&addr,sizeof(addr)); | fcntl(sock,F_SETFL,fcntl(sock,F_GETFL)|O_NONBLOCK); | close(pfds[1]); | read(pfds[0],buf,sizeof(buf)); | recv(sock,buf,sizeof(buf),0); // <-- this one | }else accept(sock,NULL,NULL); | exit(0); | } If you try it, make sure /tmp/foobar_testsock doesn't exist. The marked recv() returns -1 (EAGAIN) on 2.6.23.9. Below you find a patch that fixes that.
