*sigh*
You're right, of course. Do you think it would be acceptable to do this
instead:
} while ((ret < 0) && (errno == ENOSPC) && (size > 256));
It's still a magic number, but it should do the trick. Although it's
still a bit ugly, I know. My initial idea was to add an arg to this
program that would be then used as the value for 'size'; this way I could
add a ceph-specific value. But not sure that's less ugly...
Cheers,
