O_NONBLOCK broken on darwin and irix?
i’ve been dealing with a mysql bug on irix and mac os x that turned up in our test suite once i fixed the kill
test to actually do the test properly. after much digging in code and staring at debug traces, i noticed on irix that in the thread that is being killed, it was stuck in a blocking read that the calling code believed would be non-blocking.
by changing our setting of the non-blocking mode to use both O_NDELAY
and O_NONBLOCK
instead of just O_NONBLOCK
, i was able to get the code to work. but i’m not sure why it is necessary.
on the bright side, this may also fix this bug about wait_timeout
not working on mac os x.
