Wow, it looks like Darwin's poll(2) is completely broken for character- special devices (at least). E.g. the attached program spins shows similar behaviour when run on /dev/null - it spins, returning revents=POLLNVAL. It looks like I'm not the first to see this either, some people noticed it 17 years ago! https://lists.apple.com/archives/darwin-dev/2005/May/msg00220.html There's apparently a bug open (Apple bug 3710161), but I can't see it and if they haven't fixed it by now then they're presumably not in any great hurry. Unsetting HAVE_POLL lets the test pass. It seems like some other programs use a similar approach, e.g. https://www.mail-archive.com/bug-gnulib@xxxxxxx/msg00296.html So I think we need a HAVE_BROKEN_POLL :( -d _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
