From f0f1f6c7235ffa901cf76fe18e33749e200b3eea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lasse Collin Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2015 19:08:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] xz: Don't fail if stdin doesn't support O_NONBLOCK. It's a problem at least on OpenBSD which doesn't support O_NONBLOCK on e.g. /dev/null. I'm not surprised if it's a problem on other OSes too since this behavior is allowed in POSIX-1.2008. The code relying on this behavior was committed in June 2013 and included in 5.1.3alpha released on 2013-10-26. Clearly the development releases only get limited testing. --- src/xz/file_io.c | 18 +++++++----------- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/xz/file_io.c b/src/xz/file_io.c index f135cf7c..bf4462d9 100644 --- a/src/xz/file_io.c +++ b/src/xz/file_io.c @@ -393,7 +393,10 @@ io_open_src_real(file_pair *pair) #ifdef TUKLIB_DOSLIKE setmode(STDIN_FILENO, O_BINARY); #else - // Enable O_NONBLOCK for stdin. + // Try to set stdout to non-blocking mode.
