If it isn't neededIn fact, irrespective of the needs of the future callers lets go back to the old semantics of errnoval for now, since it should be a quick and easy patch, I think. Then if it is actually needed we can sort out the propagation of the number of bytes read in a new patch as part of that series. Some indication of whether the number of bytes requested were actually read is needed. Consider reading a struct of size X off the wire. The caller needs to know whether the number of bytes requested was actually was read or if they got an early EOF. But in the meantime I will send a patch to fix restore the original behavior for errnoval. -- Ross Lagerwall _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
