The race is that the release doesn't necessarily comes from the process/context which used the fd. E.g. it is just called when the last reference count goes away, but that can be anywhere not related to the original process using it, e.g. in a kernel thread or a debugger etc... The approach with the flush is indeed a really nice idea and I bite myself to not had that previously as well. Christian. > >> Â but I fail to understand what are you trying to do.
