Re: [PATCH] fs: sendfile handles O_NONBLOCK of out_fd

[Andrei Vagin]

Andrew, could you take a look at this patch?

Here is a small reproducer for the problem:

#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/sendfile.h>


#define FILE_SIZE (1UL << 30)
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
        int p[2], fd;

        if (pipe2(p, O_NONBLOCK))
                return 1;

        fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR | O_TMPFILE, 0666);
        if (fd < 0)
                return 1;
        ftruncate(fd, FILE_SIZE);

        if (sendfile(p[1], fd, 0, FILE_SIZE) == -1) {
                fprintf(stderr, "FAIL\n");
        }
        if (sendfile(p[1], fd, 0, FILE_SIZE) != -1 || errno != EAGAIN) {
                fprintf(stderr, "FAIL\n");
        }
        return 0;
}

It worked before b964bf53e540, it is stuck after b964bf53e540, and it
works again with this fix.

Thanks,
Andrei
