[PATCH] write(2) may write less than the total requested

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Use safewrite in place of write, in many cases.
And add "make syntax-check" rules to ensure no new uses sneak in.

There are many uses of write like this:

    if (write (fd, xml, towrite) != towrite)
        return -1;

The problem is that the syscall can succeed, yet write less than
the requested number of bytes, so the caller should retry
rather than simply failing.

This patch changes most of them to use util.c's safewrite wrapper,
which encapsulates the process.  Also, there were a few cases in
which the retry loop was open-coded, and I replaced those, too.
However, there remain invalid uses of write in both virsh.c and
console.c.  I would have replaced those, too, but util.c isn't
linked with them, so it would have made this change more involved.
xend_internal.c has one use, but it's ok, and not easily replaced.

Note: the change to libvirt_proxy.c removes a diagnostic that
would have warned about an EINTR-interrupted (and retried) write,
but that seems ok.
