[Xen-devel] [PATCH v7 01/14] libxl: Enhance libxl__sendmsg_fds to deal with EINTR and EWOULDBLOCK



This patch change the behavior of libxl__sendmsg_fds to retry sendmsg on
EINTR error.

This patch also allow a caller of libxl__sendmsg_fds to deal with
EWOULDBLOCK. The function now requires to send only 1 byte of data so
that when dealing with non-blocking fds a EWOULDBLOCK error would mean
that the fds haven't been sent yet. Current caller already send only 1
byte.

Notes:
    v7:
        always assert datalen == 1, but only fail when sendmsg haven't send
        everything (r != datalen)
        check sendmsg return value on success as well (check for short write)
