Wait, please clarify, are you suggesting that POLLIN_IGNORE_EOF and POLLRDNORM_IGNORE_EOF must be used by userland applications? Or would it be an internal flag for the kernel so that here you'd see something like: filetmp.f_data = (caddr_t)ap->a_vp->v_fifoinfo->fi_readsock; if (filetmp.f_data) { if (ap->a_events & ~POLLIN) ap->a_events |= POLLIN_IGNORE_EOF; /* same for POLLRDNORM */ revents |= soo_poll(&filetmp, ap->a_events, ap->a_cred, ap->a_td); } Or that the userland will just OR in POLLIN_IGNORE_EOF before calling poll(2). I'm not sure if I like the latter way of fixing things. thanks, -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
