site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev@lists.apple.com I hope this is the right group, perhaps someone will advise me if not. I have a situation in which I am doing two separate binds of completely different Unix sockets ( socket( AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0) ), very close together in time. The first one works fine, but the second one hangs; that is, it does not return an error, rather it never returns at all. When I switch the order of the binds, it is always the second one that hangs. But when I put a one-second sleep, or an OSMemoryBarrier, between the two binds, all is well. The fact that OSMemoryBarrier fixes the problem (and be it noted that I am running on an 8-core Mac Pro, so real parallelism is possible), makes me suspect that I have a reportable issue, and I will indeed kludge up a test case and file a bug, but I thought I would query the list first, to see if anyone has anything particular to suggest by way of test, analysis, or precedent. I have nosed around on the web a bit, but can't find anything particularly relevant. -- Jay Reynolds Freeman --------------------- Jay_Reynolds_Freeman@mac.com http://web.mac.com/jay_reynolds_freeman (personal web site) _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
