[PATCH v3] daemon: correctly handle soft accept() errors in service_loop

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Since df076bdbcc ([PATCH] GIT: Listen on IPv6 as well, if available.,
2005-07-23), the original error checking was included in an inner loop
unchanged, where its effect was different.

Instead of retrying, after a EINTR during accept() in the listening
socket, it will advance to the next one and try with that instead,
leaving the client waiting for another round.

Make sure to retry with the same listener socket that failed originally.

To avoid an unlikely busy loop, fallback to the old behaviour after a
couple of attempts.
