Product: Fedora https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=768394 --- Comment #18 from Claude Brown <claude@xxxxxxxxx> --- Yes, I think there may still be invalid assumptions about an entire chunk being available in a single "sysread". And I think the "read until EOF" is broken when the response has neither a "Content-Length" or a "Transfer-Encoded: chunked" header. But overall I think this version is better than the one that went before with arbitrary "select(undef, undef, undef, 0.1)" timing hacks included. I suspect a better approach would be to have several read operations (using "select" for timeout control) that fill a buffer to a given condition: - until a \n is in the buffer - until a specific number of bytes are in the buffer - until EOF is reached Such buffering would protect against any possible arrangement of "sysread" completion until the required data is available, or a timeout. And then all returns are satisfied form the buffer. But this was too big a change so I chickened out :( -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
