If you consider stdio to be a low-level wrapper over syscalls that only adds buffering and simple parsing, then passing EINTR back to the application is a sensible choice. I wouldn't be too surprised if L4, VxWorks, etc. do something similar. - So I _think_ we're safe with just the "sigaction()" diff. Neither of the - patches _should_ make any difference at all on a sane platform. Anyone with an older HP/UX care to try these patches? HP/UX may not be sane, but I think it may lack SA_RESTART. I don't know if stdio calls need restarted, though.
