Thank you for your encouragement, I contributed it here: https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.1074.git.1636542550889.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx > I cannot give the change any better test than they can, and it is > their platform to improve, or break by accident while trying to do > so. Right. I tested this as well as I could, via the `--stress` option, and am fairly confident that it is correct. Since the patch touches only `simply-ipc` code, the only test that could possibly affected is t0052, and it passes with `--stress` over here (when it failed without the patch). Ciao, Dscho P.S.: in case you wondered, no, I did not run the entire test suite. With the performance characteristics of the POSIX emulation provided by the Cygwin runtime, this would simply take too long. It's not the first time I wish our test suite was more efficient, across _all_ supported platforms.
