On Linux 2.1.125 (not sure, but also on 2.0.35)
I beg your pardon for my silliness. Now I got a strange result.
1) client side:
sendmsg() with
msg_iov = array of 3 iovec
msg_iovlen= 3
it returns 3 !!!
2) server side:
recvmsg() with
msg_iov = array of 2 iovec
msg_iovlen = 2
it returns 3 !!! (msg_flags==0)
browsing http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xns/recvmsg.html,
it seems that both functions should return the total recvd/sent bytes.
Am I wrong ?
In case I am, how can I get the exact fill status of my recvd iovecs,
that is, how many bytes got received ?
I know that I decidedly am offtopic, but there is \epsilon probability
that this is a bug.
regards
