------- Comment #11 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-02-01 12:53 MST ------- Sorry for forgetting to get back to this bug for so long. I've finally analyzed the strace output, and it shows that the generator received an error about the socket closing from the receiver (who was obviously trying to read it), but when the generator tries to select on that socket to write out the error message, the select never returns that the dead socket is writeable. I have chosen to deal with this situation by adding a new sibling message: when the receiver is reporting a socket-read error, the generator will note this fact and avoid writing an error down the socket, allowing it to close down gracefully when the pipe from the receiver closes. I have checked this fix into CVS. However, one can imagine a situation where the generator got a read-error on the socket and then died before being able to tell this to the generator. To handle this case, I am looking into a modification of the idea that James was working on in his patches. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
