[zeromq-dev] ZMQ vs SPI: FD shenanigans

[Olaf Mandel]

Hello Thomas,

thank you for the quick answer.

-Snipp-

Not quite: if the error occurs, the behaviour is the same as before. But
now the error _always_ happens: closing the file descriptor in the C
version of the test makes no difference. New test below:


/*
 *  Compile with:
 *  g++ -Wall -Werror -Wextra -pedantic -x c -o test test.c -lzmq
 */
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <linux/spi/spidev.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <zmq.h>


/*#define ADDR "tcp://127.0.0.1:8000"*/
#define ADDR "inproc://addr"


/*
 *  The program always shows the problem (independent of the presence
 *  of D) for the following permutations of the blocks:
 *  - A B C D
 *  - A C B D
 *  - A C D B
 *  - C A B D
 *  - C A D B
 *  - C D A B
 *
 *  With the constraint that A must be before B and C before D, there
 *  are no further valid permutations.
 *
 *  For the TCP address, the error message is: No such device
 *  For the inproc address, it is: Resource temporarily unavailable
 */
int main()
{
    void*  ctx;
    void*  skt;
    FILE*  f;
    int    fd;
    struct spi_ioc_transfer pcks;

    ctx = zmq_ctx_new();            /* A */

    skt = zmq_socket(ctx, ZMQ_PUB); /* B */
    zmq_bind(skt, ADDR);

    f = fopen("log", "w");          /* C */
    (void)sizeof(f);

    fclose(f);                      /* D */

    /* The following always last */
    fd = open("/dev/spidev32766.0", O_RDWR);
    memset(&pcks, 0, sizeof(struct spi_ioc_transfer));
    ioctl(fd, SPI_IOC_MESSAGE(1), &pcks);
    printf("errno: %s\n", strerror(errno));

    return 0;
}


The one advantage of this is: I now at least can see the FILE structure
and the contained _fileno member.

Any further thoughts?
