I think this does not fulfill the purpose of LINUX_SOCK_CLOEXEC exactly: if another thread forks and execs at the wrong time, it may inherit the socket without the CLOEXEC flag set. The obvious way to fix this is to implement SOCK_CLOEXEC in the native syscalls, in such a way that other threads can never see the new fd without the CLOEXEC flag set. That could be fairly complicated and it is a pretty rare situation, however. -- Jilles Tjoelker _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
