From 220c5ca8f487082d12122f6e440e08ca3518e4de Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Majnemer Date: Tue, 7 Oct 2014 05:48:40 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Support: Don't call close again if we get EINTR Most Unix-like operating systems guarantee that the file descriptor is closed after a call to close(2), even if close comes back with EINTR. For these systems, calling close _again_ will either do nothing or close some other file descriptor open(2)'d by another thread. (Linux) However, some operating systems do not have this behavior. They require at least another call to close(2) before guaranteeing that the descriptor is closed. (HP-UX) And some operating systems have an unpredictable blend of the two behaviors! (xnu) Avoid this disaster by blocking all signals before we call close(2). This ensures that a signal will not be delivered to the thread and close(2) will not give us back EINTR. We restore the signal mask once the operation is done. N.B. This isn't a problem on Windows, it doesn't have a notion of EINTR because signals always get delivered to dedicated signal handling threads. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@219189 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8 --- include/llvm/Support/Process.h | 9 +++++++++ lib/Support/Unix/Process.inc | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ lib/Support/Windows/Process.inc | 6 ++++++ lib/Support/raw_ostream.cpp | 15 ++++----------- 4 files changed, 43 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/llvm/Support/Process.h b/include/llvm/Support/Process.h index bb7467bfc83..861667927d8 100644 --- a/include/llvm/Support/Process.h +++ b/include/llvm/Support/Process.h @@ -192,6 +192,15 @@ public: // components should not call this. static std::error_code FixupStandardFileDescriptors(); + // This function safely closes a file descriptor.
