[Mono-list] Re: Patch for MSG_NOSIGNAL

[Jaroslaw Kowalski]

Thanks.

I'm not sure if the functions marked as "(called by the daemon)" in
daemon-messages.c should really call signal() before and after each call.
This is desired in library code (as you don't want global signal handler
installed) but I think that daemon would benefit from moving signal()
call out of the inner loop, where at the very beginning you'd install
SIGPIPE handler and forget using MSG_NOSIGNAL in daemon functions.

This would result in much cleaner code.
What do you think?
