https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=728774 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=728774#c47 --- Comment #47 from Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.com> 2012-06-11 12:09:52 UTC --- (In reply to comment #45) Indeed dup(2) works whereas (re)open the file (descriptor) below /proc/self/ does not. Nevertheless it seems to be common as I've a simliar bug report with the ksh which uses socketpair(2) instead of pipe(2) and this fools programs like diff (compare with bnc #627524) ... and there are more than diff which uses /proc/sef/fd/{0,1,2} or /dev/std{in,out,err} to check for standard file descriptors. The behaviour that this does not work for a socket seems to linux specific if I understand David Korn correct. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
