A record can be sent using one or more output operations and received using one or more input operations, but a single operation never transfers part of more than one record. Record boundaries are visible to the receiver via the MSG_EOR flag. > > it's supposed to be reliable - how is it legal to drop packets? Sorry, seems i need to rephrase description. "Packet" here means fragment of record(message) at transport layer. As this is SEQPACKET mode, receiver could get only whole message or error, so if only several fragments of message was copied (if signal received for example) we can't return it to user - it breaks SEQPACKET sense. I think, in this case we can drop rest of record's fragments legally. Thank You > > >> When EOR is found, this mode is disabled and normal packet >> processing started.
